Bab 30: The 7 Deadly Sins Witches
— Meanwhile - Night time - The sky above the USA -
In a luxurious room of a Grand-VIP class of an airplane reserved for a VVIP guest or a notable guest from the Curtained World.
A beautiful woman who appeared to be in her mid-twenties sat comfortably on the long couch resting her eyes.
Her long, silky black hair with a fiery red patch on some part of her hair that glowed with a faint red light showed that she was no ordinary magician. Her face had both Asian and Caucasian features that combined to create a perfect beauty.
On her lab is a picture frame with a picture of a black-haired man who appears to be in his early thirties. The man in the picture was Daniel who was sleeping in Murphy's shack. On the woman's head is a pair of headphones playing music she likes, soothing her as she rests.
While she was still resting, the door of the private room was opened and a man in an extravagant red suit entered the room. When he noticed that the angelic-looking woman seemed to be asleep, he crouched down and was about to touch her hair, which was hanging at her side, with his hand.
"Touch them, and consider the favor I owe you repaid in full." A beautiful but cold reproachful voice came from the woman who sat on the couch.
The woman sits up and turns toward the man in an extravagant suit, looking at him with her cold eyes.
The man was startled and felt a little bit fearful toward the strange black hair beautiful woman, but considering the beauty in front of him owing him a favor he felt his small courage swell, letting him dare to do what he would never dare to do.
"Miss Wrath, if someone were to tell me that you are the Witch of Lust instead of Wrath. I would wholeheartedly believe them. Your beauty was unsurpassed!" He tries to court Wrath who was starting to lose her patience.
She gritted her teeth and tried to control her anger which is usually very hard to control because of her nature. If it was normal, the coward in front of her would never dare to use such an uncouth word to court her or even dare to court her at all.
Most of the higher-ups and large clans in the Curtained World know that she didn't like Lust even though they are in the same camp, and the man in front of her was even more clear about it. If it's not because she owes him a favor, she would have already killed him.
Trading for a favor was considered the most sacred thing within the Curtained World community, to the point that there is a ritual to force the other party to obey the agreement no matter how powerful they are, and of course, Wrath and the man in an extravagant suit had to go through such a ritual.
"Do I look like a whore to you?" Wrath blandly refutes and then changes the subject.
"Anyway, Edwin Willow, This favor I owe you. What do you want as repayment, Speak! I still need to have a business meeting with Greed, Don't you dare cross the line!" Wrath snarl.
"Ah, please don't get angry, Miss Wrath. Can't I have a business talk with Miss Greed?" Edwin said while raising his hand in the air, trying to smoothen Wrath's anger.
"You!? Heh.." Wrath snort. "What kind of deal do you want to propose to Greed? She is greedy, sure, but she's not blindly greedy over something that she deems worthless in her eyes." Wrath said with a tinge of scorn.
"Oh, You need not worry, Miss Wrath. I am sure your friend would readily agree to this deal. Besides, Miss Greed's facilities in San Francisco should have a place for you to fulfill your part of the bargain." Said, Edwin.
"Do you even need Greed's facilities for that? What do you want?" Asked Wrath a little suspiciously.
In the Curtained World, the magical research institute equal to the one in Europe was in San Francisco. More than that, in terms of mundane technology for people outside the Curtained World, like AI and other technological know-how. San Francisco was the most advanced in the world.
When Edwin said he needed a magical research facility as advanced as the one in Europe. What he wanted was not to be something simple.
"I want your blood essence and magical essence." Answers Edwin.
Edwin smiled wickedly as he thought back to how this crazy woman invaded his estate in the Alpha District city in the Kingdom of Tessia in the middle of the night. After she knocked down all the guards and experts he had hired, he thought that was the end of him.
But instead, she desperately asked him for a favor trading ritual, wanting him to use his connection to the royal family of the Tessia Kingdom to issue an urgent mage ID to someone named Daniel, who had at least the rank of Master Artificer in return for a favor from her.
Of course, he would be a fool not to take advantage of this opportunity. This crazy woman had been at odds with mages from the royal family camp of the Tessia Kingdom like him since her destructive debut five years ago.
He is sure that his niece would have already completed the task and he would get a positive connection with the Master Artificer! This is truly a deal worth calling "Killing two birds with one stone".
Once Wrath had heard what Edwin wanted in return for a simple urgent mage ID issue. She wanted to kill him on the spot! The price is too high! But she knew that she didn't have any other choice, she was desperate back then.
Wrath can only grit her teeth and try to suppress the anger that was about to take control over her.
"Get out of my sight before I lose my mind and kill you!" Wrath said toward Edwin who was startled.
Wrath's eyes were glowing bright red, and her hair flailed in the air as the magical pressure within the room was pressing at him harder and harder every second passed.
Edwin was not a fool, He immediately retreated out of the room. He knew that if the aspect of the sin of the witch of 7 deadly sin took control over the host. Even with the ritual in place, he would still be killed because it was "Not the will of the contractor" to betray him.
After Edwin retreated out of her private room. Wrath fell on her couch and lay down as if she lost all of her energy in suppressing her anger.
"Dan…" She uttered the name of the man that she was glad to trade both her blood and magic essence for a simple ID for him. Even though the price was too high, she has no regrets about the deal. The only thing that angered her was only Edwin who dared use such a trick on her and dare to court her.
Wrath imagines the good time that might happen if she could resolve Daniel's resentment of her. She would have a good date with him at a restaurant and anywhere he wants to go, she will accompany him.
This method of imagining her and Daniel's good time was surprisingly effective in suppressing her wrath. Especially when it was about to take control over her.
Wrath closes her eyes with a dreamy smile, deciding to open them again when the plane arrives at the airport.
—
In the waiting room of the VIP area of the airport, a beautiful auburn-haired woman in an elegant suit, her hair wrapped up into a bun behind her head giving her the look of a businesswoman. There were many golden decorations on her head and suit, but it was beautiful, and did not look like someone who overly decorated themself.
She shifted her gaze from the entrance of the VIP area and her wristwatch from time to time and finally saw the one he was waiting for.
"Finally." The auburn hair woman uttered and stood up and walked outside of the room making her bodyguards in the room move out with her. But then stopped after she saw a man in an extravagant red suit who followed behind the one she was waiting for.
She squinted her eyes and looked carefully at that man and she can't remember who he was. There are many mage families in the world and she didn't bother using her brain cell to remember the insignificant one.
The auburn hair woman walked toward the beautiful black silky hair woman who walked to her and asked.
"Who was that? Do I need to remember?" The auburn-haired woman asks as if she saw a strange creature in the zoo but she still deems it's not valuable enough for her to remember what it is and asks her friend for her opinion.
The lack of respect in the auburn hair Woman's voice made Edwin Willow who followed not far behind grimace. He felt humiliated but can't do anything as this is the first time that the auburn haired woman saw him.
"Don't be bothered, by the way. How are you? Is Pride that bitch still bothering you again?" Wrath asks with a smile and has a friendly hug with the auburn hair woman.
