Heartguard

Seven Sins System Chapter 195. Heartguard

"Good girl," I complimented her as I released my cock from her. Another kiss landed on her lips as her prize.

Once I broke the kiss, she asked, "What's that, doc?" Her voice was laced with a hint of confusion as if she had just awoken from a nightmare. "What happened to me?" Her words tumbled out in a flurry, desperate for answers. "Why did I feel the pain?" pointed out the pain that she felt before. She could think more clearly now.

"It seems my power has triggered your hidden talent. Congratulations, you are a real empath," I explained, my lips forming a smile.

Her arm, which was wrapped around my waist, slowly loosened as she pulled away from me, her expression a mix of confusion and disbelief.

"Is that possible?" Her voice was barely above a whisper, and her eyes flickered with a mix of curiosity and apprehension.

"It is," I replied, my voice casual as I explained the situation to her. "In the past, some mortals were willing to make a contract with devils to boost up their strength," I continued, my eyes meeting hers.

As the weight of my words settled in, she lowered her head, her face turning away from me. Her eyes shifted from side to side, her mind racing with a flurry of thoughts.

My fingers gently wrapped around her chin, tilting her head up to meet my gaze. Her eyes were downcast, her expression a mixture of sadness and confusion.

"Don't make that face," I said softly, my voice laced with reassurance. "It's a rare talent, and I'm sure it will be very useful for you in the future."

She responded with a sideways glance, her eyes still filled with doubt. "But I don't know how to control it," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "Besides that, the pain…" Her words trailed off, but I understood the underlying meaning.

"I will help you to control it." My fingers trailed through her messy hair, the strands tangling around my fingertips. "And I will also expel the pain," I assured her. Even though my words may have sounded like a seductive whisper, I was deadly serious.

"Really?" She looked at me with hopeful eyes, seeking reassurance in my words.

"I'm not lying," I said firmly, my tone leaving no room for doubt.

"Thank you," she breathed out, a happy smile stretching across her lips as she hugged me tightly.

I took a deep breath, bracing myself for what was to come. 'It is going to be a long night,' I thought.

If I wanted to help her control her newfound powers, I had to create a magic item that would aid her in doing so. And that meant gathering all the necessary materials, a task that couldn't wait until morning.

-----

After accompanying her for a while, instead of returning to my room, I used my portal and went straight for my night hunt. Armed with a crystal clear objective in mind, I was on the search for a specific breed of monster, and I had to procure its body parts. This was not my ordinary hunt, as I needed the beast's remains to create a magical artifact for Evie.

Despite possessing the power of devil blood, I refrained from using it to fabricate the enchanted object. Doing so would have raised suspicions, and I could not risk it being classified as a demonic creation. Therefore, I decided to follow in the footsteps of ancient mortals and collect the necessary materials manually. The task at hand was no easy feat, as magic stores were few and far between in the mortal realm.

Tired from the grueling hunt, I returned to my dormitory as the first rays of dawn began to emerge on the horizon. A long breath left my mouth as one of my Gluttony tentacles came out of my back. One of its mouths opened wide before it spat out the materials I would use to make the magic item.

A Troll Blood Crystal, a couple of Harpy Feather Quill, a Chimera Hide Leather, a spoonful of Minotaur Horn Powder, and a pair of Cyclops Eye Gem.

The quest not only honed my skills but also increased my level to 81.

As I gazed upon the array of materials that lay before me, my tentacles slowly retracted into my back. I knew exactly what I needed one more material- a specific kind of iron. My mind raced as I scanned my surroundings for the perfect material. And then, like a bolt of lightning, it struck me. I knew just what would fit the bill.

Without a moment's hesitation, I reached into my drawer and retrieved a keychain. It had been gifted to me by a student, a token of their gratitude for my services when I healed him a month ago. At the time, I had deemed it useless and had carelessly tossed it aside. But now, its value became apparent to me. It was made of titanium, the very substance I required for my craft.

"Devil's Craft. Heartguard," I muttered.

Suddenly, a dark miasma burst forth from my palms, shrouding the materials in their sinister embrace. The darkness was all-consuming. It lasted but a few moments before dissipating like smoke, leaving behind a simple yet elegant earring.

It was a plain piece of jewelry, nothing too ostentatious or extravagant. But it had the power to protect the wearer's heart and mind, to keep them safe from harm.

[A Heartgurad has been created!]

[Your Greed point has gone up by 100]

[Greed 460/1000]

*Note: Even though I didn't write it down, his Greed points keep increasing every time he uses his Greed tentacles.

I decided to make earrings as they were the most suitable option for Evie. In this academy, wearing bracelets, rings, and necklaces in battle was strictly prohibited. So, I knew that simple earrings would be the perfect choice for her.

Then, I reached for my phone. My fingers moved deftly over the screen, typing out a message with practiced ease.

"Meet me at the park tomorrow morning."

With that taken care of, I set my phone down on the table and made my way toward the bathroom before I hit the bed.
