32: The 7 blessings

"I think we're getting off-topic" - Veritha said while frowning - "Let's be honest, this is our only option, so we'd better contact the 7 blessings before we start acting foolish again..."

"Say it for yourself, I'm already contacting those idiots" - Ambrosia said as she rolled her eyes at them, though her expression changed to one of irritation when she heard the voice that answered her call.

[Ambrosia ~]

"Of all the idiots, you had to answer, Gabriel..." - Ambrosia growled as she clicked her tongue.

[Don't you know that each of us blessings have to take responsibility for our equivalent?] - Gabriel replied in an angelic tone.

"Stop acting like a saint, it's giving me hives" - Ambrosia growled as she tried to calm down - "Anyway, I called you because my siblings want to talk to you."

[Huh? I thought you called me because you missed me, after all, we haven't spoken in months ~] - replied Gabriel with a heartbroken tone.

"As if I'd call you to see how you're doing!" - Ambrosia exclaimed, her face red with fury and embarrassment - "Can you stop being an idiot for a few minutes and call the other blessings?"

[Ok ~!] - replied Gabriel as she stopped responding to her twin sister's words.

"So you're calling to check on her?" - Brutus asked disdainfully.

"Keep quiet, unless you want your ass to feel the love from your minions" - Ambrosia growled as she made Wrath's sin tremble.

"It's a good thing I don't have those weaknesses" - said Goliath as he let out a laugh, only to start feeling his body begin to heat up - "W-what's happening to me?"

"You may not have a reproductive system or a cavity to excrete waste, but that doesn't mean you have no libido" - replied Ambrosia with a huge and sadistic smile - "All living beings have basic instincts inside, and if my hypothesis is correct, then you will soon enter a gestation phase, that will make you stop eating and concentrate all your energy on forming a new life inside you"

"Stop, I promise not to tell you another thing!" - Goliath exclaimed with a pale face. He wasn't sure whether his sister's words were true or not, and he wasn't about to check them out.

"Anyone else want to say something funny?" - Ambrosia asked with a huge smile - "Remember that I have all more power than you think..."

The sins were silent as they looked at each other with a darkened expression, after all, the only one who could defend herself from Ambrosia's wrath, was none other than Rivenna, the very problem they wanted to solve.

A few minutes later, a small sphere began to float in the meeting room of the 7 sins, only for it to begin to expand, showing the silhouette of 7 humanoid figures.

The first, was a beautiful blue-eyed blonde woman who had a motherly smile on her face. Her figure was similar to Ambrosia's, one that seemed to have been designed by the goddess of lust herself, the only difference with her twin sister, was that she had an aura of purity that made it almost impossible to feel lust for her. She was wearing a white gown that accentuated her curvaceous figure.

[Hello, Ambrosia ~] - exclaimed the beautiful blonde woman.

"Hush, Gabriel" - Ambrosia replied as she gave her a blank stare.

[Boo, boo ~!] - Gabriel puffed out her cheeks as she folded her arms, highlighting her huge breasts in the process.

"Michael... I didn't think I'd see you so soon" - Lucia said as she narrowed her eyes - "Are you still a bitch?"

[The only way you talk to me is with insults, sister?] - asked a beautiful woman with snow-white hair and pale skin, paired with beautiful golden eyes. She was wearing a robe similar to her sister's, only she was wearing a small armor covering the most important parts of her body with just the right curves.

"Don't call me sister, traitor" - Lucia growled as her platinum hair changed to an intense black color like the deepest abyss - "I told you about my plans, and you stabbed me in the back! You could have kept silent, ignored me, but no, you disclosed my plans to the Primordials!"

[If I hadn't, the world would have sunk into eternal chaos] - Michael replied neutrally.

"Or it could have come to a new age of prosperity" - replied Lucia neutrally - "But we'll never find that out..."

Michael was silent as she closed her beautiful golden eyes.

Lucia grunted before mimicking her sister's actions, after all, she knew this was not the time to argue about the past, not when this was a constant fight between the two sisters.

[You should eat less and exercise more, maybe then you could get more power] - said a bald muscular man with tanned skin as he looked at Goliath.

"Keep quiet, Jophiel" - growled Goliath as he narrowed his eyes - "Besides, exercising and eating healthy will only make me even weaker than I already am."

[Hmm, you're right, sorry] - replied Jophiel, the tan-skinned man as he apologized.

"Hmph!" - Goliath simply let out an annoyed snort before going back to eating. Of all the sins, they were the ones who got along the best, this due to the fact that they were the most harmless when in their passive state.

[Are you all right? Do you need anything down there?] - asked a pretty girl of about 8 years old with big green eyes. She had a double-ponytail hairstyle and was wearing a white one-piece dress - [If you want I can send you help...]

"Okay, enough!" - Ozma exclaimed as she narrowed her eyes - "We don't need your charity, Chamuel of gratitude!"

[I was just being kind because I know how hard it is to keep the balance between good and evil...] - Chamuel muttered as she began to sob.

"Oh, he made her cry" - said Veritha as she shook her head - "And an 800-year-old girl..."

"As you would expect from Trashma" - nodded Ambrosia as the others looked disdainfully at Ozma, who was about to explode.

Chamuel, the youngest of the 7 blessings, as well as the only one of these that 6 of the 7 sins loved despite their differences. She was a kind and loving child, one who helped even the fallen, to the point that there were times when the 7 sins were saved by her kindness.

"Can we trade them Ozma for Chamuel?" - Brutus asked as he folded his arms.

[I'm sorry, but that's impossible] - answered a tall, thin, black-haired man who had his eyes closed. He was wearing black glasses that framed his face and a business suit - [Please stop asking for this change, even I who am the epitome of patience, I am starting to lose it].

"You're boring, Zadquiel" - Brutus muttered while giving him a blank stare - "We can trade him for a low-ranking angel."

"Will you two stop messing around!" - Ozma exclaimed angrily.

"And who said I was joking?" - Brutus asked as he gave him a serious look - "Does it even look like I was?"

Ozma was silent before she felt how she was about to explode for the second time.

[This conversation is... interesting...] - said a young man of about 18 with silver hair and red eyes. He was wearing a sleeveless t-shirt and loose pants along with a strange belt that seemed to have a huge eye as a buckle - [I'm sure we have a lot of things to do, so I think we'd better get back to the point of the meeting.]

"I share opinion with Uriel" - Veritha said as she looked at her older brother.

"I'm surprised that the lazy one and the diligent one have the same opinion" - said Lucia while looking at her younger sister in all but blood.

"We have the same goal, but with different motives" - Veritha replied as she gave her a blank look - "Uriel wants to finish fast because he needs to work, while I want to finish fast to have more time to rest."

[Seriously, you haven't changed at all, Veritha, and that makes me happy] - smiled Uriel as he looked at his biological younger sister - [By the way, I'm still furious with you for tricking my younger sister, Lucia Lucifer]

"It's been more than 900 years already" - said Lucia with a frown.

[I could tell you the same thing, but you're still holding a grudge] - replied Michael as she opened her eyes and looked at her sister with her cold golden eyes.

"And I'll keep nursing my grudge for you until I knock you off your fucking pedestal" - said Lucia as her aura grew considerably.

[Ok, that's enough] - said a handsome man with black hair and golden eyes as he looked around - [We've been discussing for over two hours, so it's time for us to get started with the meeting, one that I'm sure has to do with my troubled younger sister]

The man was wearing a simple white robe without any important details.
