Chapter 311. Impossible Second Request
Seven Sins System Chapter 311. Impossible Second Request
I leaned my back against the nearest wall, my eyes fixed on the girl who still lay unconscious. Flicking my fingers, I called upon my skill.
'Dispel.'
[The anesthesia has been neutralized.]
I folded my arms across my chest and waited patiently for the girl to regain consciousness. While one reason for my wait was the pending return of Aria, I was also eager to discover what her second request might entail.
The girl's eyelids fluttered open gradually, and she pushed herself up, taking her time. Her first instinct was to check on her stomach, where the precious life inside her dwelled.
"Your baby is safe. He's alive and well. No organs or muscles are left behind. As long as you look after him, he will be fine," I assured her, my voice carrying the real truth.
Her gaze shifted towards me, and she lowered her head in a mixture of gratitude and relief. "Thank you," she murmured softly. She attempted to rise, but the effort left her feeling drained, and she sank back down, realizing her weakness.
"Even though I have fixed you and your baby, you have lost a lot of blood. Don't move too much. Besides, my treatment hasn't finished yet," I advised her, my tone gentle but firm. When it came to fulfilling a mortal's wish, I never took shortcuts.
She nodded obediently, understanding the necessity of patience in her fragile state. Her head bowed slightly in gratitude.
Just then, Puriel materialized before us, carrying all the ingredients required. The girl could only watch as the otherworldly ingredients floated around, seemingly held by unseen hands.
"Here!" Puriel announced, offering me the necessary ingredients for the Mortal Elixir.
I used my telekinesis to deftly retrieve the bag containing the ingredients. With my telekinesis, I pulled each item out one by one, examining them carefully. As I sifted through the collection, I spotted the receipt, which indicated that Puriel had indeed purchased everything herself.
I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at Puriel's peculiar choice. "Seriously? Did you buy all of this? Why didn't you just pick it up at a store?" I asked her, genuine curiosity in my tone. We already knew each other, so we could use our powers more freely.
Puriel, with a hint of disapproval in her expression, responded firmly, "You want me to steal? No, I would rather die than do that."
"Right," I muttered, only half paying attention to the exchange with Puriel. The girl, who had been observing our conversation with bafflement, seemed to have more questions than answers at this point.
Ignoring the girl’s curious gaze, I focused on my task. My Devil's Craft skill was summoned once again.
'Elixir of Health,' I requested with determination in my thoughts.
The ingredients began to react. They swirled and merged together, forming a complex concoction that had eluded alchemists and doctors for centuries. It was a special elixir, sought after by many but created only through the demonic or angelic powers.
The liquid began to shimmer with an otherworldly light, casting a soft glow in the room. It changed colors, shifting from deep crimson to a soothing aqua, and then to a golden hue. The aroma that wafted from it was equally enchanting, a blend of sweet and earthy scents that seemed to calm the very air around it.
[You have created an Elixir of Health.]
Using my telekinesis, I waved my index fingers in two different directions. One tossed the residue into the trash. The other one gave the elixir to the girl. “Drink it,” I ordered without giving any explanation.
The girl hesitated for a moment, her eyes darting between me and the vial of elixir clutched in her hand. I could sense her uncertainty, the wariness that came from dealing with beings she likely never expected to encounter in her life. But there was a glimmer of hope in her eyes.
I didn't have the patience for further delays. With a stern look, I repeated my command, my voice edged with impatience. "Don't make me repeat my order."
She nodded, and uncorked the vial. Without further hesitation, she raised it to her lips and drank the elixir in one determined gulp.
The transformation brought about by the elixir was nothing short of miraculous. The girl's body seemed to hum with newfound energy, her vitality fully restored. Her once-pale face had given way to a healthier and more vibrant glow.
As the elixir's magic worked its wonders, the flask that had contained it shattered into a dark aura, dissipating into the air like smoke.
The girl gazed at her rejuvenated hands and ran them over her own body in wonder. The pain and weakness she had suffered just moments ago were now gone, replaced by the renewed strength and vitality that surged through her. She pushed herself to her feet, her movements agile and confident.
"Thank you, sir demon," she expressed her gratitude, her voice filled with sincerity.
I couldn't help but bristle at her choice of words, annoyance flickering in my eyes. "Devil," I corrected her sharply, emphasizing my royal status. "I'm a royal, not a mere demon," I reminded her, my tone carrying a hint of pride.
It was a common misconception among mortals to lump all supernatural beings together as demons, failing to recognize the hierarchy and distinctions that existed within our realms.
"Yes, sir devil," the girl responded respectfully, acknowledging my correction.
After she gathered her composure, she wasted no time in presenting her second request. Her words were rushed. "For my second request, I want to ask you to kill my ex-boyfriend and his gang. They were the ones who attacked me," she disclosed, her voice filled with determination.
However, I interrupted her before she could finish her request. I raised my hand in a halting gesture. "Hold up," I interjected, causing her to look at me in confusion. "I can't grant it," I stated firmly.
"Why?" Her disappointment was palpable as she sought an explanation for my refusal.
"Because you can't pay me with your body," I clarified, my voice steady.
Her confusion deepened, and she appeared utterly perplexed by my response.
