Chapter 69: 068 It really turned out this way
“Let’s cooperate.”
When those words came from Laischa’s mouth, Shane fell silent.
Then, Shane silently got up, turned his head, and walked away without looking back.
“Wait, wait, wait, wait! Who just walks away without hesitation the moment they hear about cooperation?!”
Laischa immediately blinked behind Shane, grabbed him, and began shouting loudly while her expression was filled with a life-questioning astonishment.
“Let me go!” Shane remained adamant and said, “Just by hearing it, you can tell it’s going to be an extremely troublesome matter, and if I keep listening, it’s very likely that I’ll end up in a situation where I have no choice but to do it. Therefore, the best option is not to listen at all. Let me go now!”
...
With that, Shane tried to shake off Laischa’s hand.
Who knew that Laischa, seemingly aware that she couldn’t outmuscle Shane, threw herself onto him and clung on.
This time, Shane was completely embraced by Laischa, not only feeling an extremely soft and comfortable sensation at the point of contact, but also a tempting fragrance that went straight into his nose.
“You...”
Now, it was Shane’s turn to be astonished.
“What ‘you’ me?” Laischa replied, extremely angry, “I won’t let you go! You actually walk away while others are still talking? It’s the first time I’ve come across someone like you!”

No, if it were anyone else, Shane wouldn’t have gone this far.
After all, he understood basic politeness.
However, facing Laischa who clearly had a myriad of issues, Shane really wanted to keep his distance. If his impoliteness could drive her away, then nothing could be better.
Even now, being tightly held by such a fragrant beauty, in a state where many things could be deemed very bad, Shane still hadn’t changed his idea of wanting to flee.
“I just wanted to get some useful information for Vivian and the others, not to jump into your pit willingly. So let go of me, quickly.”
Shane pressed against Laischa’s head and pushed her head away.
Laischa stubbornly resisted, a look of defiance on her face.
“I won’t let go! Unless you twist my head off! Otherwise, I absolutely won’t... oh, it hurts so much! Stop! It’s going to break! Are you really twisting it?! This is no longer a matter of being a hero or not, but a matter of being a man or not! You person!”
Shane let out a sigh.
“Then let me hear it first,” Shane said with half-closed eyes, “At least, I’ll make a decision after listening to the end.”
“That’s more like it,” Lasha visibly relaxed and even wiped her brow as she said, “I was really worried you’d just walk away.”
“If things aren’t right, I’ll still leave,” Shane warned as a heads-up, adding, “Right now I’m just planning to listen, your so-called cooperation, we can discuss that after I’m done listening.”
“That’s good enough for now,” Lasha smiled, saying, “Can you sit down now?”
Shane muttered a few words, sighed again, and then stepped forward, sitting back down in his original spot.
It was then that Lasha stepped forward.
“Please enjoy your tea.”
As if everything that had just happened was merely a farce, having witnessed the interaction between Shane and Laischa, Lasha remained unmoved, expressionless as she poured steaming hot tea into their cups.
Shane felt that this maid might be more formidable than he had imagined.
Laischa, however, seemed so accustomed to Lasha’s demeanor, nonchalantly lifting her teacup.
Then...
“Before long, the Old Demon Clan Faction will likely come to Lamijion to rescue Killian.”
Laischa went straight to the point.
“Rescue?”
Shane lifted his eyelids.
“Yes,” Laischa finally seemed to calm down as she said, “No matter how you look at it, Killian is one of the key figures of the Old Demon Clan Faction, Level Seventy-seven, and the Old Demon Clan Faction definitely wouldn’t sit back and let such a force be disposed of by the Human Race.”
So, it was quite normal for someone to come to the rescue.
“Plus, with my presence here, I estimate that it won’t be just some small fry showing up. It might even be the Old Demon Clan Faction’s main force, determined to take the item I have, even if it means conquering this town.”
That’s what Laischa said.
“If it were the past, I would have simply left, not confronting them head-on.”
“But this time, since you’ve become a variable in this scenario, I want to give them a taste of their own medicine.”
“Specifically speaking, I want to cooperate with you to crush the Old Demon Clan Faction’s main force.”
