Chapter 338: A Psycho
Seven Sins System Chapter 338. A Psycho
''Oh, she actually did it,'' I thought, still trying to wrap my head around what just happened.
As far as I knew, goddesses weren''t usually into getting directly involved with mortal affairs. There was this unspoken rule about letting fate do its thing without divine interference. It was kind of the opposite of devils, who loved stirring the pot for fun. But Puriel? She totally just broke that expectation.
"What are you gonna do to her?" I asked, ncing over at Puriel. "I mean, sure, you could threaten her, but what if she just pulls the same stunt when we''re not watching?"
Puriel looked thrown off, her eyes darting around nervously. "I— I''m not sure," she admitted, sounding uncertain.
I exhaled, shaking my head. "Clueless as always," I said, a smirk creeping onto my face. It wasn''t just teasing; it was an observation.
Puriel caught that and quickly shifted her focus to me. "But you can help me," she said, sounding a bit more hopeful.
"Help you... kill her?" I asked, a little surprised. I didn''t expect Puriel to jump straight to murder.
"To punish her, not kill her," she corrected quickly, like she was trying to hold onto her moral high ground. "Maybe mess with her memory, make her love the kids or something."I tilted my head, considering. "Memory maniption, huh? That''s risky... but hey, I could use some chaos. Maybe I can cripple her," I suggested, letting a little of my devilish side slip.
"Just do it," she said, more forceful now.
I clicked my tongue. "Tch. You think I''m doing this for free? You gotta pay up."
"Fine, I agree," she replied without missing a beat.
A grin spread across my face. "It''s my pleasure for doing business with you," I said, feeling that devilish satisfaction.
"Envy," I muttered under my breath.
One of Envy''s tendrils slithered out from my back, heading straight for the woman''s head. I dove into her mind, sorting through her memories like a twisted library. I gotta say, getting paid made this job almost enjoyable. But the deeper I went, the worse it got. My forehead creased as I started putting the pieces together.
This woman was... messed up. She wasn''t the kids'' biological mom—she adopted them after neglecting a baby who died on her watch. She wanted to be a mom so badly, but every time she tried, she failed. These two kids? They were just recements for the baby she lost, and she treated them horribly. It wasn''t motherhood for her; it was some sad, desperate attempt to fill a void, and she was bad at it.
Her husband? Completely in the dark, busy with his own life. He bought into her lies without a second thought. The whole thing was just a giant web of deceit, and she was tangled up in it with no way out.
I turned to Puriel, looking at her like, "Are you sure you wanna give her another shot?" I asked, letting her feel the weight of what I just saw. This woman was a mess. She was driven by envy, by this twisted idea of what being a mother should be. Honestly, she didn''t seem redeemable.
But Puriel didn''t flinch. "She deserves a second chance," she said firmly, her voice cutting through the doubt like a knife. Typical goddess—always believing in redemption, no matter how bad things get. "Just change her mind, and the kids will be fine," she added, totally confident in her n.
I raised an eyebrow. "You really think giving someone like her another chance is a good idea? You''re ying with fire, Puriel," I warned. My instincts were screaming at me that this was a bad idea.
Puriel stayed firm. "People can change. It''s my duty to help them find the right path," she said, her faith unshaken.
I wasn''t convinced. "This woman''s got some serious issues. She''s a psycho," I said, trying to make her understand how bad the situation was.
Puriel''s interest was piqued. "What do you mean?"
I extended my hand toward her. "Take a look for yourself. I''ll show you what I saw," I offered, not really in the mood to exin the whole messed-up story. A glimpse into the woman''s mind would exin it better than any words could.
