Chapter 410. Why Her?
Seven Sins System Chapter 410. Why Her?
"So that's what's been bothering you?" she surmised, her tone sympathetic.
"Yeah," I confirmed. "Now that I know you're the goddess. Now the question—" I narrowed my eyes, my expression turning serious. "Why did they choose you?" I cut to the heart of the matter, the question that had been gnawing at me since we began our investigation. Whatever had led to the alteration of her summoning formation was undoubtedly the root cause of all the chaos.
Her gaze darted from side to side. Finally, she spoke, her voice tinged with uncertainty. "I don't know," she admitted.
"At all?" I pressed, needing to be sure that she wasn't holding back any information.
"At all," she confirmed with a shake of her head.
"You don't have any clues?" I queried once more, my hope dwindling as she shook her head from side to side.
The silence stretched between us.
Lost in my thoughts, a sudden realization struck me. ‘Or... Is that the main reason why the thread of fate is wrapped around our wrists?’ I blurted out internally, the pieces of the puzzle finally starting to fall into place. ‘Does that mean whatever happened to her is related to the ancient demon in my body?’
It was a theory born out of desperation. I couldn't shake the feeling that I was onto something. And if my hunch was correct, then the truth behind her altered summoning formation could be far more sinister than we had ever imagined.
I glanced at her, and a thought flickered in my mind. ‘Wait... she's not the one who kicked the demon from the light realm, right?’ I pondered silently. In my head, it just didn't add up. She didn't strike me as the type who wielded that kind of power. But then again, neither did the old version of me when I faced off against the ancient demon. Somehow, against all odds, I managed to defeat him.
‘I guess I was lucky,’ I mused to myself, a wry smile tugging at the corners of my lips. Luck had played a significant role in my victory, that much was certain. But could it be possible that she, too, had experienced a stroke of luck and managed to banish the demon from her realm?
My gaze lingered on her, my fingers tracing absentmindedly along my lips as I studied her. There was something about her, something that sparked a flicker of recognition deep within me. Was it the connection to the ancient demon, or was it something else entirely?
My brain worked overtime. I searched for any similarities between her and the ancient demon. But as I analyzed her, I couldn't shake the feeling of detachment. There was no sense of familiarity.
"What's with that disgusting look?" she snapped.
I blinked, taken aback by her reaction. "I'm just trying to analyze why, out of all the goddesses, they chose you. Why you are the only one who has a loop in your summoning formation?” I explained. "I mean, 'Patience' is acting more mature than you and 'Diligence' is more reliable. Why you?" I posed the question.
"I don't know. If I could ask, I also don't understand why they chose you instead of 'Pride' or 'Lust'," she shot back, her tone dripping with sarcasm. " 'Pride' is more generous to mortals as long as they praise him, and 'Lust' is more friendly than others as long as there are women," she added.
‘That's very passive-aggressive,’ I thought, unable to hide the cringe that crossed my face.
"Did you just... tell your opposite better than me?" I questioned, my tone heavy with disgust. The implication behind her mention of 'Lust' was not lost on me, and it stung more than I cared to admit.
She sighed. "You also just did it," she shot back.
I found myself at a loss for a comeback. She was right, after all. It wasn't my intention to offend her or belittle her in any way. I simply couldn't shake the curiosity.
I wanted to understand what set her apart from the other goddesses, what made her summoning formation the chosen vessel for whatever dark forces were at play. It wasn't out of malice or spite, but rather a genuine desire for clarity.
