He took a deck of cards out of the drawer, a harmless smile on his face.
"Let's consider it as helping Gabriel integrate into our big family more quickly."
Gabriel immediately became alert.
game?
This must be some kind of new test, a spiritual clash!
She accepted the challenge without hesitation.
"can."
Lynn's proposed game was simple—"Memory Showdown".
Place all cards face down on the table, and take turns flipping over two cards. If the numbers on the cards match, you keep them.
This game, which purely tests memory and mental arithmetic skills, is practically a freebie for the once-in-a-millennium Chief Angel.
Games start.
Yui Yuigahama flipped over two cards, one a "3" and the other a "K", and failed.
Kasugano Sora flipped over two cards, one a "7" and the other a "J", and failed.
Lynn lazily flipped over two cards, one "A" and one "Q", and failed again.
It's Gabriel's turn.
She simply glanced at the card table, and the position and number of all the cards were etched into her mind as if branded.
She stretched out her slender fingers and flipped over two cards without hesitation.
"Seven of Hearts."
"Six of spades."
Pairing successful.
Then, she flipped over two more pages.
"Two of Diamonds".
"2 of clubs."
Success again.
The rest of the time turned into Gabriel's personal performance show.
Every time she made a move, she accurately flipped over two identical cards.
The cards on the table dwindled at a visible rate, piling up in front of her.
Yui Yuigahama and Kasugano Sora were completely dumbfounded.
Lynn, however, maintained that languid smile as he watched her perform.
The game ended when Gabriel collected the last two cards.
As a result, Gabriel took all the cards by herself.
A complete and utter victory.
"Wow--!!!"
Yui Yuigahama was the first to exclaim in amazement, her eyes sparkling.
"Little Riko, you're amazing! Your memory is incredible!"
Although Kasugano Sora didn't speak, a rare hint of surprise flickered in her silver eyes.
Lynn led the applause, her tone full of sincere appreciation.
"You're a genius! The three of us combined are no match for you."
This praise is straightforward, passionate, and without any impurities.
It was like a warm current that instantly touched Gabriel's heart.
In the celestial realm, she was the chief, a perfect role model, and everyone took it for granted that she would do her best.
Excellence is her label, and it is her duty.
She had never experienced this feeling of being genuinely and unreservedly worshipped and admired by ordinary people because of her "greatness".
An unprecedented, tingling pleasure quietly rose from the bottom of her heart.
It turns out that being worshipped as a genius by ordinary people is such a... delightful experience.
The seed of "pride," one of the seven deadly sins, was quietly planted at this moment and quickly took root and sprouted.
"To celebrate Gabriel's overwhelming victory, and to welcome her as a member of our family."
Lynn smiled and picked up her phone.
"Let's have a party tonight!"
He skillfully opened the food delivery app, giving Gabriel no chance to refuse.
"Fried chicken, pizza, cola... um, and one more of that, the Chiba limited edition 'Happy Strawberry Cream Roll'."
Party.
The word instantly popped into Gabriel's mind.
This man is trying to corrupt me again with the "sense of ritual" of the mundane world!
She was about to speak, using sacred doctrine to reject this decadent party filled with calories.
But Lynn seemed to have read her mind and spoke first:
“In Japan, it is a very important custom to hold a welcome party for new members and share the joy of victory.”
"If you refuse, it will be seen as a sign of 'not fitting in'."
Unsociable.
These three words precisely struck Gabriel's weak spot.
As a perfect angel who aspires to guide all mankind, how could she leave a negative impression of being "unsociable" from the very beginning?
Moreover, refusing to share joy, in a sense, also violates the doctrine of "spreading love and peace".
After a fierce internal struggle, Gabriel found the perfect reason.
That's right, this is a necessary sacrifice to better integrate into them, understand them, and ultimately guide them!
This isn't decadence, it's strategy!
"……All right."
She nodded with difficulty.
Half an hour later.
The irresistible aroma of fried chicken and pizza completely filled every corner of the apartment.
Gabriel looked at these things that mortals called "junk food" and felt a sense of superiority as a higher life form.
However, when Lynn pushed the beautifully packaged "Happy Strawberry Cream Roll" in front of her, her defenses crumbled slightly.
Fresh strawberries, wrapped in snow-white cream, adorn the soft cake roll, emitting a sweet aroma that seems to lift one's spirits.
"The victor deserves the best prize."
Lynn's smile was harmless.
"Try it, they say you'll feel happiness after just one bite."
Gabriel looked at the cake, then at the expectant expressions on Lynn, Yui, and Sora's faces.
She took a deep breath, and with an academic mindset of "studying what human happiness is," she carefully scooped out a small piece with a fork and put it in her mouth.
next second.
boom--! ! !
The creamy sweetness of the cream, the slightly tart and refreshing taste of the strawberries, the soft and moist texture of the cake...
Countless mundane yet incredibly beautiful taste signals, like a flood bursting its banks, instantly overwhelmed the taste bud defenses she had built with sacred energy over thousands of years.
What…what is this?!
This is... what ordinary people call "happiness"?!
It is so direct, so domineering, so... irresistible!
My mind goes blank.
When she came to her senses, she realized that she had eaten the entire cream roll.
She even scraped the remaining cream off the plate clean with her fork.
The prelude to "The Seven Deadly Sins: Gluttony" began in a high-profile manner that she could never have predicted.
late at night.
Gabriel lay on the cold floor in the living room, wearing Sora's pajamas, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
(Qian Zhao Zhao)
The scenes from the daytime kept replaying in her mind.
After winning the poker game, the three mortals cast a gaze upon him that was a mixture of shock and admiration.
And then there's... that strawberry cream roll lingering on my tongue, a sinful sweetness that lingers for a long time.
She felt as if her pure and flawless soul had been splashed with a little bit of colored stain.
She opened the "Guided Observation Diary," which only she could see.
[Day 1 Guidance: Target Lynn, extremely dangerous. His world is filled with direct and intense emotional responses.]
To better perform the facilitation task, I must gain a deep understanding of these social rituals they call 'party' and 'celebration'.
Today's tasting is not a sign of decadence, but rather a great and necessary sacrifice made to gather essential data.
After writing this sentence, she paused and added another sentence.
[...If there could be a 'celebration ceremony' tomorrow to collect data, perhaps...it would be more helpful in guiding the mission forward.]
The moment she wrote those words, Gabriel shivered violently!
wrong!
What am I expecting?!
This demonic man is terrifying!
He didn't do anything, just provided the most basic food and entertainment, and yet he began to waver!
No wonder it's called the "Forbidden Zone of Gods" that can even cause the Celestial System to collapse!
Gabrielle sat up abruptly from her futon on the floor. She stared at the closed door of the master bedroom, and a fierce holy fire rekindled in her sky-blue eyes.
She clenched her fists.
Tomorrow's holy war must be escalated!
She wanted to show him the true meaning of the angel's "Seven Virtues - Diligence"!
She would use her perfect housekeeping skills to clean up this decadent den until it was spotless, so that he would understand the beauty of order and cleanliness!
She also wanted to show him the true meaning of the angel's "Seven Virtues - Forgiveness"!
She wanted to use the greatest love to embrace his two "wives" who had been corrupted by him, and let them feel the warmth of the divine light!
Gabriel lay back down, full of fighting spirit.
Chapter 125: In Just Two Days! The Chief Angel Collects All Five Deadly Sins!
late at night.
The door to the master bedroom doesn't let in any light, but it doesn't block out any sound.
Gabrielle lay on the cold floor in the living room, pulling the blanket over her head tightly.
