I am no longer human!

Chapter 12: The Selection of the Seven Deadly Sins

Twenty million followers... what does that even mean?!

If we're not exaggerating, then in Damian's limited understanding based on Earth, this would already be considered a super national idol, a big star who could even be invited to participate in the year-end Spring Festival Gala.

In other words, is the girl he casually met and got to know at his entrance ceremony someone like Liu Yifei, the teenage version of whom became incredibly popular after playing Xiaolongnu in The Return of the Condor Heroes?

Damian's lips twitched slightly. He could already imagine the endless troubles that would follow, just like the blue-haired boy who had mocked him because of Veronica.

However, there's something even more important right now...

"Vinica, can I see the photos you just posted?" Damian's voice trembled slightly.

He had already imagined the worst-case scenario—being recognized as a human by the demons from all over the world on the Sin Wall and then turned into a buffet on the spot.

"Of course." Veronica, without any suspicion, handed over the phone.

Damian took the phone and saw that the number of views for that photo on the backend was skyrocketing at an alarming rate: ten thousand, one hundred thousand, one million...

In just a few minutes, the number of views soared to a staggering one million.

At the same time, the number of likes, favorites, comments, and other data for the photos are also skyrocketing.

Gudong.

Damian swallowed hard, his fingers trembling as he opened the comments section.

"Wow, it's the entrance ceremony for Babylon Academy! What a handsome young man, a noble prince at that! Only a devil like him deserves to be my boyfriend!"

"Tsk tsk, Angel Demon is daydreaming again. Do you know that the outfit she's wearing is worth several lifetimes' worth of your salary? Plus, with her perfect human form, only Miss Veronica is worthy of her."

"As expected of the young lady, she's already hooked such a big fish right after entering Babylon! She absolutely has to win over the young master! I want to see the couple's wall!"

"Waaaaah, getting into Babylon has always been my dream, but unfortunately I was two points short. Otherwise, I might be the one clinging to the young master's arm right now."

"That young master, whose arm is pressed against the young lady's white breasts, what an enviable life he is!"

"Down with the noble dogs! The little devil will never be a slave!" (This comment has been banned for disrespecting nobles, and the account owner will face arrest by the Demon Security Bureau.)

...

Upon opening the comments section, a variety of comments came into view, expressing greed, arrogance, anger, envy, lust... almost all the original sins of the devil.

However, to Damian's relief, it seemed that no demons discovered his human identity through the photograph.

Thinking about it carefully, he did see quite a few demons that were completely in human form after he came to Hell, and most of these demons seemed to be in high positions, such as Principal Alicia, Teacher Iro, and Sean the Liar.

From this perspective, the human form in hell might actually be a symbol of a high status.

Having reached this conclusion, Damian felt as if an invisible burden had been lifted from his shoulders. He leaned back in the soft chair, tilted his head back, and let out a long sigh.

This means that he not only doesn't have to worry about his human identity being exposed or the cold looks he would receive in the academy in human form, but he would also be regarded as a powerful demon and be respected because of it.

No wonder those two muscular thugs who were about to fight fled at the mere glance he gave them; no wonder Veronica was so enthusiastic towards him...

All the confusion that had plagued him since he stepped into the academy auditorium was answered at this moment.

Just as Damian was lost in thought, a comment in the comments section caught his attention.

"Do you think this young master might be one of the Seven Deadly Sins among this year's first-year students at Babylon?"

"I think it's very likely. After all, you can tell at a glance that his demon bloodline is outstanding. He is most likely from a demon god family. Even the ring on his finger might be a priceless spatial artifact."

"I'll bet a hundred demon coins that he's one of the seven deadly sins."

"Follow-up investment +1"

...

What are the seven deadly sins in first grade?

"Vinica, what are the 'Seven Deadly Sins' in the freshman class?" After hesitating for a moment, Damian asked directly.

Because of the previous display of the wall of sin, Veronica wasn't too surprised this time, and she earnestly began to explain to Damian.

The Seven Deadly Sins are a tradition in every Seven Rings Hell Academy.

The goal is to select the most outstanding student from each grade to inherit the name of the Great Sin.

These are pride, anger, greed, sloth, envy, lust, and gluttony.

"Vinica, what determines the Seven Deadly Sins?" Upon hearing this, Damian had a vague sense of unease.

"Of course, it was directly appointed by Headmistress Alicia. As for the specific selection criteria, I don't know them either; probably only Headmistress herself knows."

As she said this, Veronica's face was full of longing.

If she could be personally designated as one of the Seven Deadly Sins by Lady Alicia, she would feel that she could die without regrets.

When will the Seven Deadly Sins be selected?

Upon hearing that it was Alicia who had directly appointed him, Damian's premonition grew even worse, and he quickly pressed for an answer.

"It should be... now."

Veronica took her phone back, glanced at the time displayed on the screen, and estimated it.

The moment the words fell, a crisp snap of fingers echoed throughout the entire school auditorium, and the source of the sound was undoubtedly the magician standing on the stage.

"Fellow freshmen, the most exciting moment of the entrance ceremony has arrived. It is time to announce the most outstanding among you—the Seven Deadly Sins!" Sean proclaimed.

"Next, please welcome our Headmistress of Babylon Academy, the most noble person in the entire Ring of Pride—Lady Alicia Lucifer!"

The magician removed his top hat and lightly tapped the brim with his finger. In the next moment, countless white doves took flight from it, their snow-white feathers swirling in the air and eventually forming a giant six-pointed star array.

The next moment, the six-pointed star array burst forth with dazzling light, and the pure white light surged in all directions like a tide, instantly engulfing the entire auditorium.

As the light faded, a figure silently floated in the air.

Her pure white long hair moved without wind, her bright golden eyes looked down on the mortal world with majesty, and her six jet-black wings slowly unfolded like a solidified abyss.

The face of the supreme king in the portrait that the demons had worshipped countless times bore a striking resemblance to his own, causing every demon who saw it for the first time to tremble with excitement.

"Lucifer!"

"Lucifer!"

Without needing to communicate or command, all the demons, driven by the boiling instincts of their blood, stood up in unison and shouted at the top of their lungs.

Those are names etched into the souls of every demon in Hell, signifying the supreme and most powerful monarch among the Seven Lords of Hell.
