Seven Sins System Chapter 46. The Students' Worries

"Good. I will ask the chairwoman's permission," he hissed in displeasure before he removed his hand from . "See you later, doctor," he said sarcastically. I could catch the wicked smile on his lips and his triumphant expression before he left the crowd. I had to admit his overconfidence was really sothing.

After he left, the students put down their phones.

While I tidied my shirt, especially my wrinkled collar.

"You should thank us for saving you," said Barry shalessly. His smile showed how proud he was.

Ignoring Barry, Claire and Evie approached . Their eyes observed , making sure I was okay.

"Are you all right, doc?" Claire asked.

"I'm fine, Claire. I can heal myself, rember?" I reminded her.

Then I turned to Barry and the others.

"Thank you for your help, Barry. Everyone. But you don't have to do that next ti. Don't get involved in my problems." Even though I was a bit irritated by their interruption, I knew they had good intentions.

"Seriously, what's wrong with that paladin? Why does he have to be mad over sothing he doesn't have?" Ion grunted in annoyance. Although the others didn't know why we were fighting, the trio could already guess the reason.

"He feels entitled and thinks the world only revolves around him," Darren said with a huff.

"Yeah, he's the sun, the moon, and the world. All people who oppose him will face their doom," Barry said with a sarcastic tone.

I let out a quiet chuckle at their words.

Claire turned to Barry and the others. A frown on her forehead. "That's not the problem now." She returned her gaze to . "Why did you accept the duel? How can you deal with him? I an you can't possibly beat a paladin." Her concern was evident in the tone of her voice.

"Don't worry. I have my way," I reassured her.

"But he's a paladin. His endurance and strength are way above yours," Evie said in the sa worried tone.

"Not to ntion his strong defense and stamina," Darren reminded.

"Moreover, you don't have any attacks against him," Barry added. They sounded serious.

I exhaled a long breath. "Should I repeat my words?" I answered in a calm tone. My smile showed my confidence.

I could understand their concern since no doctor could beat a paladin before and I couldn't say how I could do it.

Barry snapped his fingers. From his expression, he just understood sothing. A grin on his face. "You must have a trick to beat him, right?" he guessed.

"It's a duel, Barry. One vs one. If I use a trick, I will be disqualified and suspended from my job," I replied. All of this was on my employnt contract.

Barry's face turned grim. "So..." He turned to Darren and Ion. "Should we help him?" he said in hesitation.

"That also will make disqualified," I said before the others gave their replies.

"But---"

Before Claire could finish her words, I interrupted her. "I knew what to do. Just watch how I fight him later. Also---" I turned to the clock. "I think you should go back to your class now," I reminded them.

It made them turn to the clock.

"Oh crap! We are late!" Barry scread in panic. Which was followed by the others.

Without a goodbye, all of them dispersed themselves accompanied by the sound of their noisy footsteps.

"Dr. Allen, we'll co and make sure it's a fair duel," said Claire.

"Thank you," I said.

After my answer, she ran to her class following the others.

After the door closed and they all left, an evil smirk appeared on my lips.

"You just got lucky, Theo. If it weren't for them, you'd be dead by now," I muttered. Well, I couldn't wait to embarrass him in the next duel.

I sat on my seat and folded my arms in front of my chest. My eyes fixed on the door. One of my tentacles ca out of my back to put away the food boxes. "I wonder how long lady luck will protect you?"

11. 16 AM

I walked down the white modern corridor to the principal room with the report in my hand. Lunch ti was almost starting so I decided to submit my report to Katrina before I headed up for my duel.

Stopping at her office door, I threw a few knocks. A female voice ca from within.

"Co in."

I opened the door and entered the room.

"Morning, Miss Katrina," I greeted.

"Morning, Dr. Allen. Take a seat," she answered without glancing at .

She sat behind her large desk with a pile of docunts by her side. Her hands moved nimbly on a laptop in front of her. An artificial blood juice box on her other side.

It reminded of my work and the pile of docunts on my desk. I didn't know what my father was doing to take care of all that. He even didn't let explain what I was working on before he sent here. Sohow I could understand why Ivy wanted to co with to the mortal world.

The room itself was dominated by hazelnut color and was quite luxurious. Not as good as my office but the facilities were quite good. A set of elegant sofas with a nice coffee table and carpet welcod with a little coffee and tea table nearby. An almost empty mini tea rack on top of it, indicating that she had a lot of guests lately. She was a vampire, so she drank nothing but blood.

At the end of the room, an elegant large desk with a huge bookshelf behind it.

But there was one thing that surprised . My eyes widened and my jaw dropped. I even stopped in front of it and stared at it in amazent. It was a huge painting on the side of that room.
