Seven Sins System Chapter 45. Hickey

I turned around.

"Morning, Mr. Theo," I said politely. The smile on my lips was the exact opposite of his sour expression. I had predicted this would happen and had no plans to let Theo go. After all, it was just the two of us here.

Since we were at the academy, he only wore his work clothes. A shirt and trousers. Without his uniform, he looked less intimidating. Still, his body which was much bigger than mine made our differences seem too vast.

But as the devil, I didn't need a big body to kill someone. Well, I couldn't kill him due to the agreement, but I could think of another way.

After closing the door behind him, he approached me with vigorous steps. His eyes stared intently at me.

"What have you done to Julia?" he hissed in displeasure.

Instead of being intimidated, I chuckled, indicating that I only thought this was all a game.

"I didn't do anything," I replied in a casual tone.

"Liar!" he gritted his teeth.

"If you don't believe me. Why do you bother to ask?"

He stopped in front of me and looked down at me.

"I'll ask you one more time. Yesterday. What did you do to Julia? She's been avoiding me since then," he repeated.

But I responded by leaning my back on my chair and folding my arms in front of my chest.

"She's been avoiding you for a long time. Even before I came here. You only blame your failure on me," I said straight to the point.

"Trying to twist the facts, huh?" he said in displeasure.

"Twisting the facts?" I scoffed which was followed by a chuckle. "Do you need a mirror?"

My laughter stopped. "Let's cut the case. She has rejected you. Stop bothering her."

"No, she hasn't!" he insisted.

"Do you need a harsh rejection to understand it? Or are you too stupid to understand such a simple thing?" I exhaled a long tired breath. "Fine, I'll have her tell you."

He raised his fists in front of his chest and cracked them in turn. "So you're trying to play as her boyfriend, huh?"

I pulled my back away from the back of my seat and gave him an arrogant smirk. "I'm her boyfriend now. Got a problem?" I challenged.

"Bullshit!" he shouted.

Realizing he was burning with jealousy, I continued my insult. Breaking an arrogant mortal's heart like him was a nice entertainment for me. It was more fun than killing him directly.

"Last night. She wasn't in her room, right? Where do you think she went? Or..." My smirk widened. "Where did she spend the night?"

His eyes widened. He immediately caught what I meant. "You mean..."

My smirk turned into a devilish one. "Yes. Just for your information." I pulled my shirt collar to the side, showing her hickey on my shoulder. "She gave me this on our third play. She likes to play rough and is very good at BJ. I can't get enough of it."

His rage burned his heart. His anger was evident in his gaze and expression. He pulled my collar and raised his fist. "You little shit!" he shouted.

I was about to use my Teleportation skill to take him, but a male voice from the door came.

"Mr. Theo!"

Due to the voice, I undid my intention. Likewise with Theo.

Spontaneously, we turned to the source of the voice and could see Barry and the others standing in front of the door along with the other students. Including Claire, Evie, Fiona, and the others. This modern era's weapons were in their hands and aimed at us. Their phones.

"Let him go! Or we'll post this on social media!" Claire threatened. Yeah, she was never afraid of anyone as long as she believed she was doing the right thing.

Despite their good intentions to save me, I exhaled a long breath of disappointment.

'Thanks a lot for saving my prey, everyone,' I grumbled internally.

My initial intention was to take him with my Teleportation skill to an empty room and give him a few knocks, like breaking his bones here and there. Then I would take him to yesterday's cave with my Portal skill and let the monsters rip him apart. By using a third party as my killer, I was not breaking the agreement at all. In addition, I would get an extra show and food, since I had to eat his body to remove the evidence.

"Drop it! Do you want to fail in my class?" he threatened them. With this much evidence, I bet he wouldn't dare.

"I dare you!" Barry returned his threat.

With the cameras pointed at us, Theo had no other choice but to let me go.

"Since you guys recorded it, I'll say what I want." He returned his gaze to me."I challenge you for a duel at lunchtime. Do you accept it?"

'Oh, the classic way,' I thought. In medieval times, a duel was a common way to solve many problems, from women, land, and proving power. But this method was rarely used in the modern era. Most mortals solved their problem by following the legal procedure and only using the duel as a competition and a place to test their strength.

While in the Shadow Realm, demons still used this method to solve many problems. It depends on how big the problem was, of course, since there was a minimum requirement to do it.

Unfortunately, the mortal world's duel was different from the shadow realm. We couldn't kill in the mortal world's duel. What the winner needed to do was knock his opponent out.

I was about to say a word, but Darren interrupted me.

"That's cheating!" he shouted.

"Yeah, Dr. Allen is a healer! How can he win it!" Ion added.

"Shut up! This is between me and him!" Theo shouted angrily.

"I accept it," I said unwillingly. It was a pity since we had to end it with a duel while all I wanted was his life. But under these circumstances, what could I do?

Rejecting it made me look like a coward so I had no choice but to accept it. Well, on the bright side I could kick his ass in front of a crowd. Which meant--- More show for me and more torture for him.

"Dr. Allen, you don't have to!" said Evie. Her tone sounded like a plea.

But Theo considered my approval as my doom. His eyes looked at me menacingly.

"Whoever the loser is, he has to obey the winner. And if you don't show up, you will be considered a loser. So don't you dare to run from me," he hissed.

"Don't worry. I won't run away from my battle," I reassured him with a calm tone.
