"Too much smoke around here."

The man spoke before waving his hand, creating a large gust of wind that swirled around and cleared up the clouds of smoke.

Evan saw some translucent barriers shatter into pieces of light in the distance, however, he quickly returned his focus to the man who just appeared in front of him.

"Terence. Why are you almost dead while fighting with a kid?"

The man didn't even look at Evan, with his gaze turned towards Terence who was trying to heal his arm with his last bracelet-type healing artifact.

"Because he's somehow immune to your power. He's the one I told you about before I left."

"Immune?"

Hearing Terence's words, the man finally turned to get a good look at Evan who was internally rejoicing that the effects of the healing potions he had consumed had started showing.

He had his right arm wrapped in shadows to hide the fact that it was healing as he gazed back at the red-eyed man who had suddenly appeared.

The mystic eye crest within his eyes also wasn't present, as he was not sure of what the man's reaction would be if he saw them now.

"I'd normally say 'Nice to meet you', but the current situation is the farthest thing from 'Nice'."

Evan spoke while activating his full appraisal on the man, on the person he had come here for in the first place.

The demon who was supposed to be sealed within the Tower of Avarice.

A Peak Ranked Demon with a level over 700.

One of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Greed.

◇ ◇ ◇

The moment Greed set eyes on Evan, he instantly discovered why the young hero was 'immune' to his idiosyncrasy.

"That aura around you...you're sister's contractor?"

Although it sounded like a question, Greed was already sure that Evan was a contractor of his sister, however, his eyes could not hide the surprise when he realised that the 'sister' in question, was Pride.

"To think that Big sis would actually contract with a human. She used to look down on them so much before.

I guess I understand why you could not win Terence, anyone who my sister picks as a contractor is bound to be exceptional.

She has a better eye for these kinds of things than I do."

Greed withdrew his power since using it on Evan would be pointless as Pride's contract with Evan prevented it from working properly, before asking the young hero a question.

"Where's my sister?"

To which, Evan answered.

"She's already here."

"Huh? She's alrea-!

Oh. That's what you meant."

A look of confusion momentarily appeared on Greed's face, however, it cleared up in the next moment as his lips curled up into a crazed smile.

In the next second, he spun around faster than the eye could see and threw a punch with his right hand towards the air.

His intention was to clash with the incoming palm from above, however, said palm avoided his punch at the last moment and grabbed his face, slamming him into the ground right after.

**BAMMM!!!

Clouds of dust and dirt rose up into the sky for the nth time today, clearing up to reveal a small crater on the floor with Greed lying in the centre.

Holding his face, was a familiar right hand, belonging to the high demon Evan had spent the past year with.

"You really like giving people a lot of trouble, little brother."

"And I see you're still as violent to me as always, elder sister."

In response to Greed's words, Pride just dragged his body across the floor before tossing him against what was left of a building's wall.

Demonic runes flashed on Greed's belt as he slammed into the wall, taking no damage at all and getting up immediately after and dusting his body while speaking.

"But seeing as you are here, I understand why that one who I favoured a bit died. You killed her, right?

The one with the huge hammer."

"I did certainly have a hand in her death, but I wasn't the one who dealt the final blow."

"You weren't...?"

Greed was momentarily surprised upon hearing Pride say she wasn't the one who killed the Warhammer-wielding woman like he had assumed, with the realization dawning on him a moment later as he turned to Evan.

"I see.

You have a fine contractor there, sister. He's a lot better than mine."

I want him for myself."

"This brat. You still dare covet what's mine?"

"Actually, I don't think I belong to you either."

Evan's interjection was ignored by the two demons while Kayla whacked him on the head and told him to focus on healing his wounds.

"I am the one who wants all there is, so naturally I want him, even if he's with you, elder sister."

Greed spoke with a wry smile, shrugging his shoulders and shaking his head as if saying 'it could not be helped'.

"Why did you get this man to try and take over this city? Trying to play king again like you did in the past?"

Pride folded her arms and asked, with Evan's eyes widening as he saw a smug look appear on the high demon's face.

"Geh!

Can you please stop reminding me about my past foolishness, sister?"

The other high demon who had been acting all calm and collected, had his face contorted in a mixture of shame and displeasure. He was sure that Pride knew why he did that but chose to poke at his sore spot.

Meanwhile, Terence was staring at the two silently as he let his C+ health stat handle healing his wounds for him.

'So, this woman is a being like him, a demon.

What's more, is that they're siblings.

What if he wants to go with his sibling? Would he take his power away?

I can't have that!

I need to think of a way t-!'

His thoughts were interrupted when a black-coloured light spear suddenly shot up from his shadow and stabbed him in the stomach, causing him to grunt in pain and attract the attention of the two high demons who were talking with themselves.

"You guys were having a bit of a happy reunion there, so I was kinda at a loss on how to draw your attention.

Ended up choosing this means though."
