Chapter 76: The Seven Deadly Sins Witches
While Luo Yuxi was in Apal, pondering how to find the protagonist and Yun Keke and Yu Keke’s mother, a greater danger was brewing in the Witch Kingdom. In a spacious room with a large round table, unlike the one in the Church, this table had only seven seats. This was the meeting room of the Seven Deadly Sins Witches.
“Ugh… really, I’m not even awake yet, why call a meeting so early~?”
As moonlight streamed into the room, a glamorous girl with long black and white hair draped over her shoulders sprawled lazily on the table.
“I’m hungry…”
Beside her, a loli with a witch’s hat and short green hair sat down. She looked incredibly cute, completely at odds with her identity as one of the Seven Deadly Sins Witches, capable of obliterating everything within a hundred miles.
Ruo Li, the Lust Witch, entered, her attendant respectfully removing her heavy coat before standing silently at the side. Ruo Li sat down at her designated seat.
“It seems I’m the third to arrive. Not too late…”
As she spoke, a shadowy figure materialized in the seat beside her, a girl shrouded in black mist, her features completely obscured.
“…”
Ruo Li looked at the girl, thinking, She’s still hiding herself, as always. Just as she was about to say something, the door burst open, and two girls entered.
“It seems everyone is on time today. I didn’t expect even Sloth and Gluttony to be here~”
“Really, why call a meeting for such a trivial matter? So troublesome. I could handle the Church alone…”
With the arrival of the two girls, the moonlit room was bathed in an eerie purple light. Each seat was engraved with a title. Ruo Li glanced at the word “Lust” on her seat and quickly covered it with magic.
“Really, a communication spell would have sufficed. Why all this formality? And why am I Lust…?”
Ruo Li grumbled. Although she was a succubus, she only consumed magic power to sustain herself. She had been given the title of Lust after reaching 2nd Order.
“Don’t worry about it, you didn’t object at the time~”
The girl at the Seat of Sloth, her long black and white hair cascading over her shoulders, lazily propped herself up with a pillow.
“I’m hungry… Lulu is hungry too…”
The loli at the Seat of Gluttony patted her stomach and poked her witch’s hat. The seemingly ordinary hat opened its mouth, revealing a terrifyingly long, red tongue with sharp teeth.
“Hungry, so hungry…”
The loli’s eyes became vacant. The girl at the Seat of Envy, shrouded in darkness, pulled out a cake and tossed it into the hat’s mouth. The hat closed, returning to its normal appearance.
“Alright, enough with the distractions. The reason for this Seven Sins meeting is that Greed has been captured…”
The blonde girl at the Seat of Pride, arms crossed, looked at the empty Seat of Greed. Everyone already knew, but no one had wanted to bring it up. Ruo Li sneered.
“If she was captured, she’s not worthy of this seat. A mere 6th Order witch, it’s no big deal~”
Ruo Li chuckled. She had always disliked Herolise’s way of thinking. The girl at the Seat of Pride simply smiled.
“But I heard you lost to that so-called 6th Order witch during the recent witch uprising~”
“You!”
Ruo Li’s eyes turned cold, her aura filling the room. The girl at the Seat of Wrath, sensing the surge of magic power, jumped up.
“What’s going on? Are we fighting? Count me in, count me in~~”
She bared her shark-like teeth, her aura clashing with Ruo Li’s. Ruo Li, after a brief glance, sat back down. Not out of fear, but because a fight would only complicate things.
“What a letdown, I thought we were going to fight…”
Wrath sat back down, her blood-red eyes returning to their normal black. The girl at the Seat of Sloth had already fallen asleep, her ample bosom squished against the table.
“So, Greed wasn’t just captured, if we do nothing, they’ll think we’re easy targets. We can’t let the Church look down on us~”
Pride raised her hand, and the moonlit table shone brighter. Wrath jumped up excitedly.
“We’re finally fighting! Let me destroy the Church alone~”
“I think we need a plan. For example, we could combine our—”
Pride pulled out a map of the Church’s territory and circled Apal, the central city.
“We’ll lead a group of witches and storm the Church headquarters. Rescuing Greed shouldn’t be a problem…”
“Isn’t that… still not a plan…?”
Ruo Li sighed. This wasn’t a plan, it was just brute force. Before she could offer a suggestion, Wrath had already vanished, and Pride slammed her hand on the table.
“Alright, it’s decided, let’s go!”
“Are you going there to die?!”
Ruo Li tried to make them reconsider, but before she could finish, only Sloth remained, asleep on the table, while Envy had vanished into a black mist.
“Do you really want to save Greed? As expected, cooperation between witches is impossible…”
Ruo Li sighed. But it was fine. If the rescue failed, she wouldn’t have to see Herolise’s smug face. The thought of Herolise calmly saying “Your wife is amazing” made her furious.
“Using the Church’s hands to eliminate Greed isn’t a bad idea…”
Ruo Li muttered as she left the room, her two attendants relieved. Even just standing by during a meeting between high-Order witches was almost too much for them.
“That succubus in Apal hasn’t reported back, she’s probably been discovered. Send another one…”
“Yes… Master…”
As Ruo Li left, the room fell silent. A figure stirred in one of the seats. Sloth removed her eye mask and looked around.
“Really, did they leave me behind again? How troublesome~”
