I am no longer human!

Chapter 37 Axel's Past

Babylonian College, Bar.

At this moment, a small standoff is taking place in the sofa area of ​​a bar.

The two opposing sides are the sins of envy and lust, two of the Seven Deadly Sins of this year. One is veiled in black and exudes irresistible charm, while the other, though a young boy, possesses a face that could launch a thousand ships.

Making friends with you... I don't believe a damn thing!

Seeing the pink lip print on the glass in Divira's hand, especially since the end of the lip print was pointed at Damian, Raphael's bright blue eyes were filled with barely concealed rage.

In his view, Devilo's purpose was the same as Veronica's: to seduce his friend Lord Damian. The difference was that Veronica would at least try to hide it, while the black-veiled female devil in front of him made no attempt to pretend and was openly seducing him.

"Lord Damian has no intention of being your friend. Please leave immediately," Raphael said rudely.

"Raphael, are you making a decision for Damian?"

Faced with the blond boy's attempt to expel him, the female devil silenced him with a single, casual remark.

As Lord Damian's friend, he naturally has no right to make decisions for Lord Damian.

Raphael could only turn to Damian for help.

However, to his disappointment, the black-haired boy finally spoke slowly after a moment:

"...Since you've come with goodwill, I'll reciprocate with goodwill."

As far as Damian was concerned, although Divilo's behavior was somewhat outrageous, it did not seem to be malicious, so he would not turn her away.

Seeing this, Raphael became anxious and whispered in Damian's ear:

"Lord Damian, don't let this she-devil's looks and royal lineage fool you. Her family has been overthrown, and she's fled to the Ring of Pride like a stray dog ​​with her remaining followers. Getting involved with her will definitely cause a lot of trouble..."

"Besides, her approaching you is clearly just an attempt to take advantage of you..."

"Please restrain your desires for now. If you really want to get to know a wonderful female devil, I have a younger sister I can introduce to you..."

Although Raphael's voice was very soft and almost a whisper, apart from Damian, who among those present, including Veronica, did not have outstanding demonic blood?

A strong lineage naturally brings exceptional hearing.

Therefore, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Raphael's whispers sounded like loud conspiracies to everyone else.

A stray dog?

Having been humiliated like this in front of everyone, Divira was about to lose her smile, and her slender hands behind her back clenched into fists.

If Raphael weren't the young lord of Gremory, and if Damian weren't still alive, she would have used her fists today to break every bone in his body, making him understand the true value of the term "descendant of a monarch" amidst despair and pain.

"This place is quite lively, with all three sins—pride, lust, and envy—present. Would you mind adding me to the list?"

Just then, a slightly flippant voice broke the standoff.

A handsome, blue-haired young man, dressed in a gorgeous suit, with an indifferent expression, arrived carrying a wine glass.

The Sin of Wrath, Julian Andreanfo.

This young nobleman, who also came from a demon god family, completely ignored everyone present and simply nodded slightly to the black-haired boy leading the trio as a greeting.

"Want to grab a drink, Damian?" Julian raised an eyebrow and extended an invitation.

...

A few moments later, two long sofas that had been moved in, plus a folding dining table borrowed from the bartender, were put together to form a simple salon.

Raphael, Damian, and Verica were seated on the sofa on the left, while Julian and Devilo were seated on the sofa on the right.

After taking their seats, none of them spoke first, and the atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

"Axel, the student known for his gluttony, seems to be in this bar too. Should we invite him for a drink?"

After a long pause, it was Devilo who broke the silence first, speaking with a smile.

The moment the words left his mouth, everyone in the salon except Damian frowned.

"Bringing a demon descendant here is really spoiling the enjoyment of drinking, isn't it?" Julian said casually, swirling the glistening liquid in his hand.

"Although we are both members of the Seven Deadly Sins, I have no desire to have any contact with him," Raphael echoed.

Veronica... has no right to express her opinion.

After the Demon of Sin?

Listening to the discussion, Damian recalled the giant man on the platform with empty eyes who looked like a dead man, and his heart couldn't help but stir slightly.

He hadn't noticed it earlier because he was too tense and in a dangerous situation, but now that he had calmed down, he felt for some reason that the giant's eyes were strangely familiar.

Just like... him in the past.

"Raphael, could you tell me about Axel's past?"

After hesitating for a moment, Damian could not suppress his excitement and asked the blond boy beside him.

"Of course, Lord Damian," Raphael agreed without hesitation.

"Axel, the Queen of Sin, was born eighteen years ago in the Sinful Arena, an execution ground for demons who have committed sins, where all magic is sealed and only the purest physical combat is allowed."

To ensure Damian was not unaware, Raphael first explained the origins of the Sinful Arena.

"Axel's parents were a demonic couple who were imprisoned in the arena after committing heinous crimes. Due to the negligence of the inspectors, it was not discovered that the woman was already pregnant with Axel at the time."

"After realizing Axel's existence, the arena, in accordance with the principle of rune care, allowed his birth."

"Not long after, the couple died in the arena, while Axel, who was originally thought to be dying because no one was taking care of him, showed an extremely tenacious will to live, and survived for a whole month in a dark and damp cell without food or water."

"Nobody knows how he survived."

"But this great feat successfully attracted the attention of the arena's administrator at the time. He suspected that Axel's demonic bloodline had undergone an extremely rare atavism, so he decided to intervene and save Axel's life."

"And just as the administrators predicted, a few years later, the still young Axel displayed a fighting power that even surpassed that of adult demons, so he was sent directly to the Sinful Arena to fight and fight to the death with other sinful demons."

"For more than a decade afterward, Axel dominated the arena as the ace of the evil arena, remaining undefeated in hundreds of battles and bringing enormous attention and wealth to the arena."

...

"Lord Damian, please take a look."

Raphael skillfully opened the Sin Wall, searched for a clip of a Sin Arena battle with the highest praise in Axel, and sent it over.
