The Black Book: Seven Deadly Sins

Chapter 36 - 36: The Ascension Competition Begins

With a long sigh, the young man calmly met Ye Wan Ning's eyes.

"Senior Sister, that day you were too close, your breath like orchids, and your lips so tempting..."

As he said this, Zhu Haomiao found himself feeling a bit nauseous, while Ye Wan Ning turned completely red with embarrassment.

"Then why do you never seem to be tempted when we're usually together? Instead, you act quite natural and normal?"

Ye Wan Ning leaned closer to the young man, her eyes shimmering like clear autumn waters, making Zhu Haomiao's heart uncontrollably race.

Because that day [Lust] just happened to level up!

But he couldn't say that, so Zhu Haomiao gritted his teeth, resigned himself to his fate, and spread his hands: "Anyway, it's all Senior Sister's fault for being too beautiful; I just can't control myself."

Ye Wan Ning: "..."

"What are you guys talking about?"

Just then, Li Cang came out of the changing room, turning ordinary jeans and a hoodie into a top model fashion statement.

"We were discussing the inducing conditions for the next experiment."

Upon hearing Ye Wan Ning's words, Zhu Haomiao stiffly turned his head and stared at her, his eyes twitching.

I went this far deliberately; isn't this girl at least supposed to call me a creep and cut off contact permanently?

The ambitious ones might even write a small essay and post it on a forum; why doesn't she play by the rules?

I was all ready to silently endure this humiliation!!

Grinding his teeth, Zhu Haomiao turned abruptly and stormed out, his angry silhouette leaving Li Cang confused and tilting his head.

"What's up with him?"

"No clue, maybe he's thinking about something happy."

"Then why is your face so red?"

"None of your business, mind your own social matters!"

"???

Li Cang was bewildered, looking at his friend's weirdly shy and angry expression, and wisely changed the topic.

"Oil, next time could you not wear full armor? Supporting a complete divine artifact in real life is exhausting."

"No way, if I sacrifice myself, the Holy Clothes can at least preserve your chastity."

"Ah????"

Li Cang widened his eyes in horror, his elegant eyebrows slowly knitting together, and after a long silence, he asked a soul-

There were dark-skinned African friends, people in white robes, exotic-looking Persian girls, and blond, blue-eyed Slavs...

Of course, the majority were domestic, lively boys and girls speaking various dialects.

Their badge designs were all different, although without specific studies in [Extraordinary Heraldry], Zhu Haomiao only recognized China's [Dragon Emblem].

However, even their [Dragon Emblem]s weren't the same; his badge was of a grayish black iron color, while others' were either silver or gold, clearly more advanced than his.

Gold, silver, bronze, iron...

Could it be that the color and texture of the badge represent a person's strength?
