Why must the devil be Defeated?-Chapter 183 - 182 has been exposed again and again
Chapter 183: 182 has been exposed again and again Chapter 183: 182 has been exposed again and again “I don’t know?”
Shane was somewhat surprised by Ai Yi’s remark.
But Ai Yi’s expression was very calm and indifferent, telling Shane that her previous words must have been her true feelings.
“For a time, I truly hated the Hero.”
Ai Yi’s voice slowly reached Shane’s ears.
“Because of the Hero, the person most important to me passed away.”
“Back then, I even wanted to destroy the entire world.”
“Rather, if it weren’t for the sisters around me stopping me, I probably would have done just that.”
Ai Yi’s unnerving words gave Shane the urge to gulp.
However, Ai Yi’s tone soon took a turn.
“Later, when I was so deep in hatred I couldn’t extricate myself, I saw it.”
“I saw all the people of the Demon Clan laughing because the war had ended.”
“I saw everyone around me dancing for joy because they no longer needed to go to battle.”
“By then, I realized that the Demon Clan and other races are all the same, even if they revered power, not everyone enjoys fighting and bloodying their hands.”
“The actions of the Hero ultimately brought peace to the three clans and ended the long-standing war.”
“So, I awoke, I gave up, no longer feeding on hatred, but instead joining my sisters in guarding the peace of the Demon Realm.”
Ai Yi seemed to no longer hate the Hero, letting go of her past sorrows and pain.
“So, you ask me how I view the Hero now, I don’t know,” Ai Yi said solemnly, “In the past, all I saw was the Hero’s strength, threat, and loathsome slaughter. Now, I suddenly want to see, unlike us gods, humans, and demons who have always been in conflict since ancient times, what the Hero from the Otherworld fights for and what he fights against.”
“What really makes a true Hero?”
“I am, slightly curious to know.”
Ai Yi spoke out all the thoughts in her heart.
Hearing this, Shane couldn’t help himself anymore.
“I say, Miss Ai Yi,” Shane spoke up weakly, “Could it be that you actually know…?”
Having said so much, how could Shane not realize that Ai Yi might very well be targeting him?
And, it seems this young lady knows he is the Hero?
This made Shane become somewhat hesitant and seek confirmation from Ai Yi.
In response, Ai Yi gave him a look.
“Your Holy Sword has already been sealed with a Hero-specific Sealing Ring, right?” Ai Yi glanced at the Holy Sword hanging at Shane’s waist and said indifferently, “That’s good, remember not to unseal it carelessly, that way, your identity won’t be too easily exposed.”
… So, in other words, setting aside others, Shane had already been exposed in front of Ai Yi?
Shane really wanted to curse.
How could he be exposed again and again?
Was he really that bad at concealing his identity?
At this moment, Shane really wanted to ask those protagonists who liked to play the pig to eat the tiger, how do you keep it up?
Back when Shane read novels, he couldn’t wait for those protagonists who pretended to be weak to suddenly reveal their true identities, to shock and awe everyone left and right, to bask in the thrill. Shane had no idea how long he’d waited for that exhilarating moment to arrive. Reflecting on it now, he genuinely couldn’t understand how they managed to keep up the act for so long.
Were there no smart people in those novels? Or was he too dumb to keep up with his predecessors? Or was it simply a matter of plot necessity?
Damn it all!
Feeling a bit of an internal collapse, Shane couldn’t help but voice his confusion,
“So, which big shot are you from? My Miss Ai Yi?”
Shane had really started to doubt Ai Yi’s identity.
He had always thought Ai Yi was some big shot, but now it seemed that this little girl’s background might be even grander.
“Don’t call me miss,” Ai Yi immediately voiced her discontent and then added, “You can guess for yourself.”
Leaving such words behind, Ai Yi walked ahead.
“Wait up!” Shane hurried after her and, after hesitating for a moment, still meekly said, “My dear Sister Ai Yi, where are you planning to go?”
Upon hearing this, Ai Yi didn’t respond to Shane’s question. Instead, she reacted to his form of address.
“Sister, huh?” Ai Yi said with surprise and curiosity, “I like this title. Before, it was always me calling others ‘sister.’ Now, finally someone is calling me ‘sister,’ too. From now on, you should call me that.”
Ai Yi was quite pleased with the title.
Clearly, Ai Yi did not want to be treated as a child, nor did she want to be addressed too formally. Shane’s use of ‘sister’ hit right at Ai Yi’s preferences.
But of course, Shane wouldn’t do so.
“Sister, my foot. From now on, I’ll call you little sister Ai Yi,” Shane rolled his eyes and continued to probe, “You still haven’t said where you plan to go.”
“Wuu…” Ai Yi frowned cutely, murmuring “call me sister” as she said, “I’m going back with you.”
“Going back?” Shane’s mouth twitched, and he cautiously said, “Could it be that you want to…?”
“Yeah, live with you,” Ai Yi replied matter-of-factly, “I’ve said it before, I want to understand you Heroes, and this way is more convenient, isn’t it?”
“…Is it really more convenient?” Shane rubbed his temples, asking, “Ai Yi, you must be someone of great importance, right? Can someone like you wander around alone outside so freely?”
Even if he thought with his knees, Shane could imagine hundreds of scenarios where people were going crazy searching for Ai Yi.
After all, the disappearance of an important person was always the most troublesome.
And…
“Won’t anyone recognize your identity, little sister Ai Yi?”
Shane couldn’t help but worry.
But Ai Yi seemed unconcerned.
“Don’t worry, in the Demon Realm that’s another issue, but in the Human Realm, the number of people who have seen me is very few; no one will recognize me,” Ai Yi said, “If it were Sister Sera, it would be different. She’s always been the representative for interactions between the Demon Realm, Human Realm, and Divine World. Her appearance must have been widely recognized in the Human Realm. Everyone knows her, unlike me. I generally don’t get involved in affairs of the Human Realm and Divine World, and even in the Demon Realm, I leave matters to my subordinates while I often nap around the city. Even if I walked around outside, it’s unlikely I’d be recognized.”
Otherwise, Ai Yi wouldn’t have been in the Royal Capital up till now without anyone coming to look for her.
As for Ai Yi’s subordinates…
“They probably still think I’m sleeping. By the time they realize I’m gone, who knows how long it will have passed,” Ai Yi said nonchalantly, “Besides, when they really start looking for me, I’ll just send them away.”
Having said that, Ai Yi continued walking ahead on her own.
“Sigh…”

Shane could only sigh and follow after Ai Yi.
“Guess I’m really taking a loli home.”
