Seven Sins System Chapter 219. Rachel's Plea
I summoned my Telekinetic powers once more, causing Rachel's body to move closer to me with a sudden jerk, pulling her towards me until her face was mere inches from mine.
Her eyes met mine, and I could see the fear etched in every line of her face. She was trapped, caught in the grip of my powers. "Answer me," I hissed, my eyes fixed on hers with an intensity that bordered on the predatory.
And then, with a sudden burst of energy, she gave me what I wanted. An answer. "B-Body," she said, her voice trembling with fear and trepidation.
I pulled my face away from hers, my eyes narrowing in disbelief. "Oh, I didn't expect that," I said in surprise, my voice tinged with a note of disbelief. Most mortals preferred to pay with their souls, after all. It was rare for someone to offer up their body.
"Do you have a fetish for devils?" I blurted out in a teasing tone, eager to understand the motivations behind her choice. There was something intriguing about her, something that drew me in even as I toyed with her like a cat with a mouse.
Rachel's body trembled as I hovered over her, a smug smile playing at the corners of my lips as I watched her struggle to find the words to answer my question.
She shook her head from side to side, her lips parted as she gasped for breath. I could see the fear and uncertainty written all over her face, and I relished in the power I held over her.
"Then?" I demanded, my voice cold and commanding.
Her eyes flickered up to mine, a flash of defiance sparking in her gaze. "At least... after I die, I want to be separated from you..." she sobbed, her voice barely audible above the sound of her own tears. "I don't want to be crushed in damnation."My smile faded, replaced by a sudden sense of disappointment. I had thought she had a fetish for demons or something, but it seemed that she was simply a mortal, afraid of the consequences of her own desires.
Still, a deal was a deal, and I wasn't about to back down now.
"Very well," I said, my voice flat and emotionless. "Our deal is concluded," I added even though I wasn't really happy about it.
"But before I do, I want to know something from you," I said, my voice low and measured. I fixed my eyes on hers, watching as she flinched under my gaze.
"Y-Yes?" she stuttered, clearly afraid of what I might ask.
"What happened? Why did they attack you?" I demanded, my tone harsh and unforgiving.
"I don't know," she whispered, her voice barely audible above the sound of my own breathing.
"What happened? Tell me?" I pressed, my impatience growing with every passing moment.
"I don't know either. They kidnapped me when I wanted to go visit my friends," she said again, her eyes flickering nervously over my shoulder.
"Then?" I demanded.
"Then they brought me here… I don't know what they want from me. But I know they meant evil so I tried to run away," she explained, her voice quavering with fear.
"Is this connected to your ex-mentor?" I asked, my voice soft yet firm. Only Theo connected Gem and Rachel.
"I – I think," she answered hesitantly, her voice laced with fear. "They haven't said anything to me since I ran away as soon as I opened my eyes."
I could see the fear etched on her face.
"Then why are you trying to summon me instead of other devils?" I asked in curiosity, trying to make sense of the situation.
"That's because they mentioned you. I heard it by accident when they drugged me and took me in their car," she explained, her voice barely above a whisper.
"They mentioned about me?" I asked again, my mind racing with possibilities.
"Yes. They said you were their leader," she explained, her eyes flickering with a mix of fear and confusion.
They did mention it before and I couldn't deny the fact that this piqued my interest.
"Why did you summon me then?" I asked again, my curiosity getting the better of me.
"Uh… since you're their leader… so I thought if I could make a deal with you first before they get to me, I'd be safe…" she explained, her head down and her voice barely above a whisper.
Well, that sounded stupid, but it made sense to me.
"My summoning formation, where did you get it?" I asked again, hoping for a more detailed explanation. I placed my bet on the academy library. But I was wrong.
"From my family…" she replied, her voice laced with hesitation.
It was clearly unexpected.
"You family is my followers?" I asked for her confirmation, once again my curiosity getting the better of me.
"No…" she muttered in nervousness. "They are warriors… They participated in the war 300 years ago. That formation… I found it in my house attic when I was a kid. Among the piles of memorial books and notes of my ancestors. I thought it was a spell book. Some kind of ancient magic formation, so I learned it. But when my mom found it, she yelled at me and said it was your summoning formation. My great-great-great grandfather kept it as a memento for everything that happened and how cruel the war was back then," she explained, her voice barely above a whisper.
It was ironic, but it didn't matter to me. As long as the deal was completed.
"One more thing," I spoke up, my tone firm and business-like. "You know what you have to do if you give a body to a devil, right?" I wanted to make sure that she was fully aware of the consequences of our deal, and that she wasn't as clueless as Claire.
She nodded her head, her tears flowing freely. "I have to serve you…" she started sobbing. "I have to do whatever you ask..." Her sobs grew louder. "I can't refuse your request..."
Despite her reluctance, I knew what she was getting into, and she was willing to make the sacrifice for her own survival.
"Good. Then…" I began, ready to finalize our deal.
"Please, sir. I'll do anything as long as you don't make me hurt others…" Her gaze pleaded with me. "I'm a weak mortal. You will be disappointed if you order me to hurt others," she added.
I was taken aback by her words. Why did she assume that I needed her help to hurt or kill others when I could easily do it on my own? But I could tell that she was genuinely afraid, and that she was desperate to ensure the safety of her loved ones.
"I won't," I clarified, my tone reassuring.
"Don't hurt my family and friends either," she added, her voice quivering with emotion.
