Seven Sins System

Chapter 312: Revenge I

Seven Sins System Chapter 312. Revenge I

"What do you mean?" the girl inquired, her eyes filled with a mix of disappointment and pleading as she waited for my explanation.

I pointed at her stomach, my tone resolute. "Because there is another life in your body," I began, emphasizing each word. "Your body doesn't just belong to you. It's also a home for your unborn child," I stated firmly. This was a fundamental rule for us devils; we couldn't claim a body that housed two souls.

Aria let out a long breath of relief, visibly pleased by my response. She seemed happy, knowing that I couldn't fully claim the girl as part of our contract. The intricate balance of demonic dealings could be confusing, but in this case, it worked to her advantage.

I couldn't help but notice the girl's disappointment. Her hand instinctively rested on her stomach once again. "B-But… what should I do?" she stammered, her voice trembling with fear. "My ex will chase me wherever I go. He wants to kill me, to kill us. I won't be able to escape from him," she admitted, her vulnerability laid bare.

"Can't you escape somewhere far away?" I suggested.

She shook her head slowly from side to side, her expression filled with despair. "I don't have anyone," she whispered, her voice laced with sadness. "My family disowned me a long time ago, and I don't have any money," she admitted, laying out the harsh reality of her situation.

"I can help you!" Aria exclaimed, her voice filled with sincerity. However, the girl remained unaware of her offer, as it couldn't reach her ears – merely a breeze in the air.

The girl's voice quivered with fear and desperation as she continued, "Even if we can escape now, one day, he might come to us again…" She wrapped her arms around herself, as if seeking comfort from her own embrace. Her gestures and tone conveyed a deep sense of hopelessness that tugged at my conscience.

"Oh, that could be bad," I said in a nonchalant tone, glancing at Aria. I let out a nonchalant sigh and turned to Aria, my gaze conveying a sense of urgency. She appeared deep in thought, contemplating the gravity of the situation, especially the danger that still loomed over this girl.

The girl's voice trembled as she revealed more about her tormentor, painting a chilling picture of his actions. "His victim wasn't the only one. He targets many women and destroys their lives. He got them drunk, took advantage of them, and then blackmailed them. I'm not the only victim; there are many more. That's why… Please, grant my second wish," she implored, her head bowed in shame and despair.

I let out a contemplative hum, my eyes narrowing as I considered her request. "I can't do it. Unless…" I paused, glancing over at Aria, a mischievous smirk playing on my lips.

Aria caught my look and immediately frowned, a sense of unease washing over her. "What are you thinking?" she asked, her tone laden with displeasure.

My lips curled into a sly smile. "Unless there's someone who is willing to pay the right price to replace you," I elaborated, knowing that Aria wouldn't be thrilled with the idea.

Aria's frustration was palpable as she clenched her teeth. "What do you want, Azrael?" she snapped, her displeasure evident in her tone.

"Angel's tears. I want your tears," I responded promptly, my gaze fixed firmly on her. It was a demand that I knew would make her uncomfortable. Gathering tears from a celestial being like her wasn't an easy feat, but it was one of the essential ingredients I needed for the elixir Baelthor had mentioned. For me, it was a challenging task, but for Aria, it should be relatively straightforward.

Aria narrowed her eyes, her expression skeptical. "What do you want to do with it?" she asked, suspicion lacing her words.

I couldn't help but smirk, leaning in slightly closer to her. "Ah, that's my little secret," I purred. "What's certain is that I won't use it to harm mortals or to unleash chaos," I commented with a casual wave of my hand.

Aria's response was swift and resolute. "No," she said firmly, her eyes locked onto mine, unwavering in her refusal.

I chuckled at her determination, finding her resistance rather amusing. "You know, Aria," I said, my voice dropping to a conspiratorial tone, "this could be your chance to do something selfless for a mortal. Be their savior, the angel who shed tears for their sake."

She regarded me with a mix of irritation and curiosity, her lips pressed into a thin line. "You're playing with words, Azrael," she accused.

I winked at her. "It's what I do best," I quipped, leaning back with a mischievous glint in my eye.

"Well…" I returned my gaze to the girl, a faux expression of pity painted across my face. "I can't help but feel for her, for the plight of every girl that wretched mortal has victimized," I said with a feigned sadness, my voice dripping with insincerity. I was playing my cards right, using the girl's desperation to my advantage.

Aria, on the other hand, wasn't so easily swayed. She fixed me with a resolute look. "I'm not negotiating with a devil," she reiterated, her gaze unwavering.

I let out a disappointed sigh, a hint of regret in my tone. "Such a shame," I lamented, pretending to be disheartened. "While we stand here, that vile man might be out there, committing heinous acts, perhaps forcing himself on another innocent girl, all with his gang of accomplices." My voice was nonchalant, yet tinged with sorrow.

She regarded me with a mixture of exasperation and curiosity, her eyes narrowing as she tried to decipher my true intentions. "You're not making this easy, Azrael," she muttered.

I shrugged nonchalantly. "Life's never easy. But it's the challenges that make it interesting," I said cryptically, my eyes locked onto the girl as I waited for Aria's decision.

My words seemed to have an impact on Aria. She paused, visibly conflicted by the gravity of the situation, her inner battle reflected in her eyes.
