Seven Sins System Chapter 329. The Devil's Boring Morning
Azrael's PoV
'Ha... Finally, she's gone,' I thought. I let out a long, exasperated sigh, my thoughts drifting as I glanced at the closed door.
Puriel had left the room, but I knew she'd probably had her eyes on me for a while before her departure. It was almost amusing, considering her new job didn't commence until after classes were over.
She, just like me, had idle time to burn. That was why I had decided to bury myself in books, trying to blend in and appear like an ordinary mortal being.
As for Puriel, I couldn't fathom what she expected to glean from her watchful observation. It wasn't like I could frivolously unleash my Demonic Powers in this academy. I might be a devil, but I wasn't keen on causing chaos, especially when I was already embroiled in a substantial investigation.
Did she think I was some naive mortal teenager with no intelligence? Maybe she believed I'd create havoc for the fun of it, as if I didn't have bigger issues to deal with.
Sitting at the infirmary's desk, I found myself absently staring at the window. The morning sunlight streamed in, casting patterns of light and shadow across the room. The quiet hum of the infirmary settled over me, and the only interruption was the occasional distant chatter from the hallways. It was a moment of tranquility, yet it felt like an eternity.
Having finished my breakfast, I idly twirled the fork between my fingers. The tomato juice sat beside me, and with a soft clink, I took a sip, the tangy flavor briefly awakening my taste buds. But beyond that, I was left with the silence and my own thoughts.
