Seven Sins System Chapter 330: Join The Cult?

Seven Sins System Chapter 330. Join The Cult?

I sighed, realizing that I needed to provide so explanation to the trio since they had been in the yard this morning during the encounter with John and Aria. I didn't want them to beco entangled in the dangerous web of the cult or whatever else was going on.

John had been after , not them, and I wanted to keep it that way. If the cult and John had any nefarious plans, they should be directed at and Puriel, not them.

However, there was no escaping the fact that I needed to clarify a few things, especially my connection with Puriel. With a frown, I started to explain. "I didn't throw Julia away," I asserted firmly.

Barry, with his laid-back deanor, casually opened his paper bag and dug into his ham and cheese sandwich, continuing the conversation without missing a beat. "Well, you sounded like that this morning," Barry said, his shoulders lifting in a nonchalant shrug. "You hugged that paladin in the yard and seed very close. You even kissed her," he reminded , his mouth half-full as he chewed.

Darren, sitting beside him, jumped into the conversation, popping open his to-go container of macaroni and cheese. "Must we remind you? You previously told us that you didn't know her," he pointed out, the confusion evident in his voice as he spooned so of the pasta into his mouth.

Barry then turned to his friends, his eyes lighting up with a newfound realization. "Guys, I think that's why Miss Aria made that fanfic!" he exclaid, a look of revelation on his face as though he'd just cracked a major case wide open.

"Oh, that makes sense!" Ion chid in eagerly, his eyes wide with realization as he took a bite of his pizza, starting from the crust as if it were a ritual.

Darren's disappointnt was evident as he spoke. "You lied to us. So cruel," he stated, his gaze fixed on .

I let out an exasperated huff. Leaning back in my chair, I sought to explain. "I told you this is not what it seems," I asserted. "I honestly didn't recognize her. It was only when we t that I finally put the pieces together," I explained, hoping to clarify the situation.

Attempting to regain their trust, I reiterated, "You know I never dug into that and never cared about it," reminding them that my encounters with the paladin hadn't been preditated or calculated.

"Really?" they chid in unison, their eyes still fixed on , filled with accusation.

With a flat stare, I shot back. "Yes," I affird firmly. " I just recognized her as my long-lost childhood friend when I t her," I added.

Darren's surprise was clear. "Wait, you guys are childhood friends?" he asked, his eyebrows raised in genuine shock. His surprise then shifted into a thoughtful frown. "Then why didn't she recognize you when you first t?" he inquired, his tone growing more inquisitive.

Part of wanted to snap back with a retort like, 'That's because she's dumb,' but I managed to hold my tongue. "I changed a lot after we separated," I explained, taking a deep breath. "And for our na, as a child, we only knew our nicknas and never knew each other's full na."

Barry chid in, nodding repeatedly in understanding. "I see. That makes more sense now," he admitted, displaying a level of acceptance. But then, with a mischievous grin, he couldn't help but stir the pot further. "That doesn't make you sound any less suspicious," he pointed out, his voice dancing with amusent.

I couldn't help but roll my eyes at his comnt. "Suspicion is my middle na," I quipped in response.

Darren's sudden pause. He fixed his gaze on . It was as if a lightbulb had gone off in his head.

Hesitantly, Darren reached out and gripped Barry's shoulder, trying to relay his thoughts while keeping his eyes on . "Wait, Barry. I think I understand sothing," he said, his voice taut with a new kind of apprehension.

Barry turned to Darren, a puzzled expression on his face. "What?" he inquired.

Darren's voice quivered slightly. "Do you rember they were talking to John…" His words trailed off, leaving the sentence unfinished.

"Doc... you didn't join the cult, right? You're not their accomplice, right?" Ion questioned, the worry evident in his tone.

My initial reaction was to raise an eyebrow, baffled at the suggestion. I facepald.

Join the cult? An accomplice? Seriously? I was no one's lackey or minion!
