Willy Xiao curled his lips in disappointment, found a chair and lay down, and once again opened the "Leveling Theory" by the knotted philosopher, raising his scorched yellow eyes to look at them from time to time. Although the joy of speaking nonsense to the Demon Duke in person was reduced, at least there was a good show to watch, and he didn't want to leave.
Nese spoke for a long time - he had never seen him say so many words in one go. The content also made Willy Xiao think about it, and he twisted a page and fell into thinking. Yi Cha listened without saying a word throughout the whole process, and the expression on his face was almost unchanged.
"Can."
After Nesai paused for a while, Yicha nodded slowly: "It's just that the Returned Star Council cannot provide support to you at any time recently."
"I don't need support." Nese replied quickly - a little too quickly, but it got stuck next time. He lowered his eyes and looked at the ground, "You have no objection? I thought this was an act of collaboration with the enemy."
Yi Cha looked at him with a half-smile.
"I want you to know." Nesse considered for a few seconds before adding a stronger voice, "The attacks in the Killing Domain will not stop. The undead will still regard you as a target. I won't...but please be careful."
"anything else?"
"……there is none left."
"More. But you didn't say it. You did the right thing." Yi Cha raised the corners of his mouth and glanced at Willy Xiao. "This way I feel relieved."
"...Did you do the right thing?"
Yicha smiled and said nothing. The arcane scholar raised a fist in protest:
"Can you please make it clear? If you insist on telling these riddles that I don't understand, I will start making up random things in the biography! Or just remove your scenes and replace them with my own. Hmph."
His protests were ignored as usual.
Nese stared at Yicha closely, but just like Willy Xiao, he couldn't discern the intention in the devil's words.
"Sorry. I didn't understand." He chose to be honest. "Your attitude is very important to me. Although." He swallowed dryly, "I don't expect you to forgive me. After all, I want to unite the undead. Strength to fight against the Lord of Demons. And we all know that the undead have just attacked you, and us all. And Beelzebub, the Lord of Demons, is your wife. So—"
Nese's expression was serious. Yi Cha looked at him with his head propped up for a few seconds, then laughed out loud.
"Done right."
The demon clapped his hands and turned over an hourglass on the table. "Veled. It's time for you to go."
"Why? I won't leave! I want to know what you are thinking!" Niese took a step forward and said fiercely, "It won't happen this time. I won't just leave! You can't drive me away! After I know you I won’t leave until I get the idea!”
Yi Cha blinked, seeming a little surprised. "It's not that I'm chasing you away, it's that you have something to do. Isn't it? You just said it in a language that we can all understand, so these have already been written down-"
He looked again at Willy Shaw. "Oh. We don't have a recorder now, only a literary master is present, so the results won't be very accurate. But there are still some. Do you want to check?"
"I won't check," Neese said. I couldn't control the trembling in my voice. He tried to control it, but to no avail. "I beg you, I beg you... I beg you! I beg you! No matter what! You must tell me what you are thinking!"
"oh?"
Icha raised an eyebrow. "must?"
"must!"
Nese felt like he was going crazy. thoroughly. Talking to a demon like this is a recipe for death - any children's literature on the main material plane will warn you like this. Even discounting that, it's not polite enough, it's not smart enough - mostly it's not smart enough.
Then he said again: "Must! I must know today!"
He stood there, feeling cold all over. You don't need to look at it to know that Willy Xiao has a sinister expression, observing quietly while bending his index finger to make a draft in the air. If he had a choice, the last thing he wanted to do was to let this annoying guy see his gaffe—the arcane scholar would not only make a fuss about himself, but also make it known to every living creature nearby—after adding it to the fatal biography, Creatures far away will also know.
But it was hard for him to care.
Yi Cha narrowed his eyes at him.
"Okay. Then I'll tell you."
The demon crossed his hands on the table and nodded. "Velaed. My Veled." He showed a sincere smile:
"First of all, what you need to be reminded of most is: from the moment you come in, I can tell what you are going to say from your face. As for the matter of the Killing Domain and the matter of the Demon Noble Queen, I know Earlier. Back to this conversation. Like, I see it written on your face that you need my support—and hopefully at your fingertips. That’s why I’m telling you to lower your expectations appropriately.
But you told me that you don't need it. So you lied to me. "
He glanced at Nesai, whose expression turned dull:
"When you lied to me, I could see what you were thinking. So I say, you did the right thing."
"Lying? I didn't..."
"It's not important. It explains the problem more. But you must know, so I'll let you know." Yi Cha held out four fingers: "You told me four lies. At least. Except for the one I just mentioned. Lies, and-"
He put down his fingers one by one, "You said you don't need my forgiveness - you do, otherwise you don't have to tell me anything. You said my attitude is important - not important, you have made up your mind, even if I object , you will still do those things. Right. You said you wanted me to know this - in fact, you wanted to say it.
That’s why I didn’t tell you at the beginning: You don’t actually have to say anything, you just need to dazzle it in front of my eyes. "
He smiled languidly, "Also. You want to know what I am thinking, half of you really want to know, and half of it is a lie - the other half is actually because you are afraid of my punishment. Since you strongly demand - this is Really—I’ll tell you my answer too: there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
"Don't feel embarrassed." The devil added slowly, and turned to ask Willy Xiao: "Is this the right way to use it in your place?"
"Yes! Yes, yes, yes! That's right!" the arcane scholar chuckled.
Nese was neatly dressed, but at the same time she felt like she was wearing nothing.
"I may have lied. But I thought they were the truth." He insisted with great effort, "I still want to know your attitude. I can see more than before, but I still can't see through you. ."
"I told you. Veled. The first sentence."
Icha spread out a hand. "I said yes."
He looked at Nese kindly.
I watched it for a few more seconds.
"Okay." He nodded. "Go now. You have a lot of work to do of your own."
Nesai looked at Yicha blankly, then suddenly rushed over. Willy Xiao jumped up from his chair excitedly, ready to watch the fun.
But the guardian of the material plane just hugged the demon and rushed out of the door.
