Seven Deadly Sins System

Chapter 123: Changes



Chu Wuyao was about to scold Cthulhu, when suddenly, a creature appeared in front of her, seemingly teleporting in front of her.

This creature was quite small, about the size of a human fist and was white in color, in the shape of the ball, with many white tentacles extending out of every single part of its small body.

The way this creature appeared was very strange, as if it had always been here, but was previously invisible.

When Chu Wuyao saw this strange tentacled creature, she didn't show any panic, but stretched out of her right hand, putting it in front of it.

In response, the creature quickly flew towards her hand and then, its soft tentacles started rubbing against her hand, like a pet.

This creature, which Chu Wuyao named Whisperer, was actually one of the new creatures she summoned from the Devil World, through her Devil Summoning ability.

In fact, if a powerful person were to take a look at the Earl's mansion at this moment, they would discover that there were many creatures like this everywhere in the mansion, from the garden to the inside.

Some of these creatures had terrifying appearances with tentacles, teeth and scales in their bodies, while others resembled normal animals such as birds, cats and dogs.

However, all of these creatures had one thing in common: they were quietly observing the area around them, as if they were collecting information.

This sounded strange, but it was actually exactly what these creatures were doing.

Having trained as both a Magician and a Warrior, Chu Wuyao was able to understand the limitations of the Inheritance World's power system.

This made her confident enough to summon many creatures of the Devil World and deploy them to collect information, not afraid that they would be found out.

Chu Wuyao had previously wanted to do something similar in the Cultivation World, but she finally decided against it.

After all, there were many powerful people in the Cultivation World and it was very likely that these creatures would be discovered.

If this happened and a powerful cultivator was able to trace these creatures back to her, Chu Wuyao's ending would never be good.

Shaking her head to suppress these thoughts, Chu Wuyao looked at the soft tentacled creature that was rubbing its body against her hand, not showing any abnormal reaction, as if this was completely normal.

Not only did she not show any reaction in fact, but she actually stretched her other hand and petted it gently.

Ignoring Cthulhu's envious eyes that flashed with murderous intent, Chu Wuyao looked at Whisperer and opened her mouth:

"What's up?"

"Master...there is... a powerful person...coming...", a low, hoarse voice came out of Whisperer and rang in Chu Wuyao ears.

Hearing its words, Chu Wuyao's thoughts moved and entered Whisperer's body, soon reaching its core.

The next second, many images flashed in her mind and she instantly recognized that they were images of the Earl's mansion.

In these images, Chu Wuyao saw a few men wielding weapons and training as Warriors, saw her half-brother scolding his followers with a prideful expression and even saw a maid having an in-depth communication with a male servant.

Chu Wuyao wasn't surprised by this change, as this was Whisperer's main ability and it was the reason why she valued it enough to grant it a name.

Whisperer had the ability to establish a connection with other creatures and through this connection, it could communicate over long distances, as well as being able to share their view.

Moreover, it could share these views with other people.

This ability was exactly what Chu Wuyao had been looking for, giving her a way to coordinate with all her subordinates and summons.

Cthulhu didn't know that its status had once again fallen in Chu Wuyao's eyes.

After glancing briefly at the above-mentioned scenes, Chu Wuyao finally focused on one of them.

In the image, a middle aged man with a serious expression was riding on a tall horse, with tens of men that were wearing thick armors walking around him.

These men surrounding him, as if they were protecting him and judging by their respectful faces, it was clear that he was the one in the lead.

Even though it was just an image, Chu Wuyao could see that the man's strength was extraordinary, far surpassing her current strength.

Even if she were to use her true strength, she would have to use her True Form in order to deal with him.

Staring at the middle aged man's short blonde hair and his blue eyes, Chu Wuyao recognized his identity.

The father of this body and a Great Warrior, Earl Heath.

The return of the Earl destroyed the original calmness of the mansion and soon, a festive atmosphere spread.

However, just when everyone in the mansion was excited, the Earl only said a few words to Roger and his wives, then ran to his room and locked himself up.

Although everyone was disappointed, they were not surprised by this, as the Earl had always been cold and preferred to spend his free time training.

But this time, the situation seemed to be different.

In the next few days, people discovered that a few servants and maids had gone missing and as time passed, these disappearances became more and more frequent, spreading fear in the mansion.

Even though the wives of the Earl stepped forward and tried to calm down everyone, their efforts were to no avail.

With the Earl not showing himself once since his return, more and more rumors started spreading, saying that the Earl had done something sinful and was being punished by the Creation God.

Soon, a few maids mentally weak maids could no longer stand this and escaped the mansion, running for their lives.

"Crash!"

The sound of glass shattering spread in the room, as Margaret punched an antique vase that stood in front of her in anger.

The extremely valuable vase, which was created hundreds of years ago, was broken into pieces.

Margaret however didn't care and turned her head around, glancing at Winton who was standing respectfully behind her.

"Where is your father?", she asked in a calm, cold voice, as if she was not the one who had just taken action.

Being stared by his mother, Winton became nervous.

He knew very well that the more calm his mother seemed to be, the more angry she was.

Instinctively, he spoke in a soft voice, hoping to calm her down: "Mother, I don't know."

"Father has not shown himself since he locked himself up in his roo-"

"Bang!"

His words were interrupted, as a harsh slap landed on his cheek and sent him flying.

"Trash! Trash! What's the use of you?"

"Why did I raise such a useless son?", Margaret spoke and looking at the Winton that had fallen to the ground, she didn't show any mercy.

Immediately, kicks and punches landed on every single part of Winton's body, as Margaret was taking out her anger on him.

In fact, if anyone were to look into Margaret's eyes, they would see that apart from anger, there was also a hint of fear deeply hidden in them.

Others didn't know, but as the one with the highest status in the mansion apart from the Earl, Margaret knew that not only had many maids and servants gone missing, but even a few Warriors had completely disappeared, including Roger, a True Warrior.

This made Margaret realize that something was wrong.

Margaret continuing punching Winton and only when he was covered in bruises did she stop and shake her head:

"No! I have to send a letter to my father! I can't stay in this place any longer.", she said and took a piece of paper and a pen out, then started writing.

Her movements was fast and soon, the entire piece of paper was filled with words.

Taking a last look at Winton, Margaret left the room, planning to send the letter away as soon as possible.

Throughout this whole process, neither Margaret nor Winton noticed that a small rat was hiding in a corner of the room, witnessing everything that took place.

****

Chu Wuyao looked at the scene of Winton's arrogant face getting beaten up and felt that this was her only consolation.

"Unfortunately, all my plans proved to be meaningless.", Chu Wuyao sighed in emotion when she returned to reality.

Originally, when Chu Wuyao received Audrey's memories, she believed that she was about to personally experience the life of a protagonist.

In a short period of time, she would massively increase her strength, causing everyone to become shocked and taking revenge on anyone that had previously humiliated her.

In the end, she would leave this place and look for her next adventure.

"Sadly, plans can't keep up with the changes.", Chu Wuyao whispered and a small golden compass appeared in her hand.

The moment it appeared in the outside world, the color of the compass' pointer instantly turned red, while the sound of alarm started ringing and reached her ears.

"Ding! Ding! Ding!"

This situation looked nearly identical to when Chu Wuyao deactivated her Camouflage ability, except that the red pointer was no longer pointing towards her, but towards the center of the Earl's mansion.
