Since humanity was created, evil has existed. Human beings are lustful, gluttonous, slothful, greedy, wrathful, envious, and prideful. At least, that is what the seven capital vices affirm.
“There is no human able to resist all temptation.” Under this statement, Pride dared Greed to find a pure-hearted person in the whole world. If Greed succeeded in her task, she would gain dominion over all the sins and their powers. However, if Pride proved that his declaration was veracious, the consequences would be dire for all involved.
A couple of months went by since the challenge was accepted, and Greed never stopped looking for the person who would make her beat Pride. Suddenly, she finally found who seemed to be the chosen one, but ¿would be a nineteen-year-old girl the indicated?
Eva became the subject of the bet, even though she didn’t know it. She should pass seven tests to prove her unwavering principles and moral fortitude. Each one of the seven deadly sins would put her in two-sided ways where her decisions would determine how good she was.
From Eva’s perspective, it was only a normal day; from the scoundrels’, it was the beginning of their entertainment.
