Seven Sins System Chapter 63. Mysterious Girl

Unlike the demonic summoning formation which only required the caster's blood, the holy summoning formation required a month of fasting and prayer before the caster could summon a goddess. Also, it required special holy magic water to do it. It was made of purified magic power and only high-level alchemists could make it.

The goddess said those requirements were needed to ensure the caster's sincerity and cleanse the caster's heart. But that was not a guarantee that the goddess would answer the call. That was why despite the demon's bad reputation, in urgent cases, the mortals preferred to summon us. 'Cause demons simply only needed blood rather than a complicated stupid ritual.

The payment was also different. Once the caster succeeded in doing so, the goddess usually wouldn't ask for anything in return for their request. But they would only agree to a request that would not hurt or harm the others.

The goddess would also limit material requests to a certain amount and it also should have a clear explanation. If the caster's goal was only to make himself rich, the goddess would reject it. That was very different from us, the devils. We simply accepted any request as long as the caster gave us either his/her body or soul.

So that could be said, the mortals had to pay at the front when they wanted to call a goddess. While they could pay the devil later after the request was done. And we, devils, always charged our summoner a high price. No mortals could run away from us either, we would collect our payment without fail. Well, except for Carl. His payment was too cheap due to the emergency case.

I dropped one knee and used my Scan again to get clearer evidence. My eyes looked at the formation in every detail. My brain was trying to guess which goddess the caster was trying to summon.

'Chastity, Kindness, Patience, Humility, and Diligence,' I thought. Yeah, except for the demonic summoning formations, I also remembered all the holy summoning formations so I was pretty sure of this.

I grazed the formation, trying to estimate how long it's been there.

'Half an hour…' I thought. Half an hour ago I was still in the forest and my visit to that store was beyond my prediction. I had never even been to this store before either. So I assumed this formation was not for me but to attack others. But who?

My thoughts were on the girls. It could have been one of them, but I was not sure. I wasn't sure it was Brad either.

As for the attack, the same as what happened yesterday. This typical unintelligent creature usually took a while before he realized he was trapped and went into a rage. In addition, the border energy usually protected the real world from the damage for a while before it finally manifested. In this case, he manifested as soon as he sensed my Shadow Space. So I could consider myself a hero for all mortals at the store.

'And unfortunately, they don't know I'm the one who saved their ass. They should give me a discount voucher for this,' I grumbled internally. I knew I should not think about it, but hey, I was a broke combat doctor because of a fucking overpriced laptop and a phone.

Shaking off my thought, I exhaled another long breath and stood up.

'I have to report it to dad. I bet he'll be shocked by this,' I thought. And this evidence was a huge clue to what happened. Maybe he could force the angels to spit out other clues so we could investigate better.

I opened my wings and flew backward. Without turning around, I landed gracefully on the building's rooftop behind me. After I snapped my fingers, canceling my Shadow Space, I hid my wings and tentacles.

My dome was falling apart, showing the real world bit by bit. The wind brushed my face and hair. The buildings around me returned to normal and the damage disappeared without a trace as if this battle never happened.

My eyes darted around for a moment, trying to catch anyone suspicious around me. But nothing. It was too crowded and I had no clue about the culprit so I decided to get out of there. As I turned around, a portal to my room appeared in front of me and I simply entered it.

???'s PoV

Not far from the store, a long-haired blonde girl walked down the sidewalk in a hurry. Her blue eyes looked around in caution trying to find the strange power she had felt earlier.

"It should be around here," she muttered. Yet she found nothing.

She was about 170 cm with a slim body. From her face, her age was around her early 20s. Despite her almost C-cup size which made her look a little flat compared to her friends, her flawless porcelain skin made all men steal a glance at her. But, no one dared to cat calling her. It was because she was wearing her high paladin badge on her sweet-colored mini dress' sleeve. So trying to play around with her was tantamount to suicide.

The girl entered the shop to shop and looked around to find the source of the power but could not find it. Not even a clue. And her search had come to an end after one of her friends approached her.

"Why did you suddenly run away?" complained the short black haired girl.

"Oh, sorry. I thought I saw an acquaintance of mine," the girl reasoned. Actually, she didn't know anyone there.

"Did you find it?" asked the black-haired girl.

"No," she replied.

The black-haired girl giggled.

"I thought you'd found that hot combat doctor and decided to go after him," she teased.

That was the reason why they were here. After watching a viral battle video, they were curious about a combat doctor named Dr. Allen. Apart from his extraordinary skills and unpredictable fighting style that take advantage of the opponent's weak points, he also had a handsome face and a nice body. So both of them decided to check it out. Well, it was the black-haired girl who was more interested in him, but she decided to drag the blonde with her.

The black-haired girl gripped the blonde's hand and pulled it, asking her to follow her.

"C'mon the Clourmity Academy is near. We can't just let our visit go to waste right?"

The blonde girl could only exhale and follow her friend reluctantly. She was sure it was too late for that since the sun was almost set. Even if they managed to enter the academy, she wasn't sure they'd be able to find him.

But then a thought crossed her head.

'Clourmity Academy, huh? Maybe they know something about the strange energy. Besides, that force cannot disappear by itself.'
