Chapter 259: Chapter 259: Committing the Original Sin Leads to Fall

The air around suddenly became silent.

Although her expression seemed unchanged, the sudden contraction of the girl’s pupils had betrayed her lack of the calmness she appeared to have.

"What... did you say?" Lu Sheng lifted her eyes.

"I said, you’re not actually human, are you?"

Chen Shu seemed to have infinite patience as he repeated.

However, what should have been a question was uttered with the tone of a statement.

For a moment, a multitude of possibilities about Chen Shu’s true identity flashed through Lu Sheng’s mind.

To stay alert, she had been projecting her Soul Power since she arrived at this restaurant, something humans wouldn’t be able to detect.

But since Chen Shu had said those words, he must know something about her identity.

So, how did he know she was a Demon?

A chill appeared in Lu Sheng’s eyes, and the temperature around her plummeted: "Are you a member of the Demon Hunter clan?"

Chen Shu did not directly answer Lu Sheng’s question.

Instead, he tilted his head and said, "Shengsheng, do you know how my biological father, that lowly commoner Suli I mentioned, became a Priest of the Church that only the upper-class Suli could become?"

Lu Sheng frowned slightly, not sure what this had to do with her being a Demon, so Chen Shu continued to speak for himself.

"I told you earlier, seeing my mother copulating with that crude man in the church made me feel utterly disgusted."

"To bury this filthy truth, I had that man captured. But before I killed him, he revealed a secret to me."

Chen Shu slowly lifted his gaze, "He told me, he had once seen a God."

Seen... a God?

Lu Sheng was taken aback, raising her head.

"He said that twenty-five years ago, he was just a jobless young man living in a slum, clothed in rags and starving."

"One evening, as he was rummaging through trash bins in a dark alley looking for food to fill his belly, he witnessed a girl with a pair of huge black wings descend from the sky."

"The girl’s face was covered by a black veil, hiding her features, revealing only her red pupils. But even just the obscured face beneath the veil was beautiful enough to tremble one’s soul."

"Those giant wings were even more astonishing. The extremely black feathers almost merged with the night, but every single feather shone and glittered under the moonlight, like a shimmering river of stars in the night sky."

"But at that time, his gaze was solely fixed downward. The girl’s pale right hand was stained with bright, piercing red blood, and what she was holding were several human hearts, some of which were still beating."

Thinking of such a scene made Lu Sheng involuntarily hold her breath.

However, for some reason, hearing Chen Shu describe such a scene, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. frёewebηovel.cѳm

"The man said he thought he was dreaming at that moment. The Black Feather girl looked like an angel, but her actions were like those of a demon. Seeing the bloody hearts in the girl’s hand, his first instinct was to run."
