The Devil Does Not Need to Be Defeated

“I don’t know what kind of material milady used, but when I was created, not only was my level very low, I’m also basically completely lacking in combat power, so I couldn’t be used on the battlefield at all.”

Lasha spoke all this in an indifferent tone.

“Thankfully though, I am relatively decent when dealing with daily chores, so milady had never considered abandoning me. Even though a homunculus that can only do chores like me should logically only end up holding milady back and make it harder on her in her escape, milady still never even spoke of throwing me away. She herself had even said that she had never even considered it.”

Hearing all that, Shien fell silent.

He really had never imagined that this was the reason why Leisha and Lasha looked so similar.

In the beginning, he even thought that Leisha and Lasha were actually sisters, but due to Lasha’s lack of combat talent and Leisha becoming a rare spacial magic user, Leisha ended up catching Baydr’s eye and he then used Lasha to threaten Leisha. That’s why Leisha ended up joining the Old Demon Faction and became Baydr’s minion. She was thus used like that until the assassination incident 10 years ago, when Leisha finally managed to find an opening to save Lasha while the Old Demon Faction was busy attacking the Capital before running for it.

But from the look of things now, Leisha’s reason for joining the Old Demon Faction shouldn’t have anything to do with Lasha.

After all, Lasha was created after Leisha had already started living as a runaway.

In that case then, Lasha wasn’t even born back when Leisha joined the Old Demon Faction.

But then the question is.

“If that’s the case, then why did that guy join the Old Demon Faction in the first place?”

Shien begun thinking deeply on it.

Seeing how Leisha is, she shouldn’t have really wanted to associate with the Old Demon Faction. She shouldn’t be willing to work with the Old Demon Faction at all.

But she still joined the Old Demon Faction, and she was even one of the masterminds for the assassination incident 10 years ago alongside Baydr and Jillian. Then she betrayed Baydr and the Old Demon Faction, infiltrated the palace on her own, and then stole something important and dangerous.

Just what kind of considerations did she have when she did all this?

Shien suddenly felt like that woman is filled with mysteries.
