Chapter 70: Is 069 very reasonable? Lasha’s statement, filled with the ferocity, indeed caught Shane by surprise. Although he had only met Lasha a few times, in Shane’s view, although she was capricious, she was not the type to casually toy with other people’s lives. Even during their encounter in the Mangar Mountain Range, she bore no hostility toward him at all, and only exerted pressure later on to force out his “Holy Sword,” but in the end, she left immediately after testing him with one move; she didn’t seem too vicious by nature.@@@@ But now, it seemed that this lady wasn’t non-violent, she just picked her targets. “Do you bear such a grudge against the Old Demon Clan Faction?” Shane tentatively asked this. “What do you think?” Lasha said with a smirk, “After being hunted for so long, if there was no other way, do you think I’d just run away without seeking revenge?” ... That made sense. If Shane were in her shoes, he would certainly want to retalize. That was probably Lasha’s train of thought at the moment, having finally seized an opportunity to pay back the Old Demon Clan Faction; naturally, she wouldn’t want to let it slip away. Furthermore... “By weakening the Old Demon Clan Faction to the right degree, they will lessen their efforts in chasing me, and then I’ll have a chance to do much more,” Lasha explained earnestly, “That’s why, I want to cooperate with you.” Shane suddenly started calculating various possibilities in his mind. Source: , updated on novgo.co That sounded reasonable, but there were several questions that couldn’t be ignored. For instance... “What’s in it for me if I cooperate with you?” Shane was very direct. “There’s no real ‘advantage,’ but at least you can avoid disadvantages,” Lasha was equally straightforward, “You don’t need me to point out the obvious; if the Old Demon Clan Faction sends a large force over, with Lamijion’s highest level being only 68, he surely couldn’t hold them off. For the sake of this town, you already have a reason to take action, right?” “How can you have the audacity to say that?” Shane’s eyes twitched heavily, and his gaze towards Lasha turned unfriendly, he said, “If it weren’t for you staying here, the Old Demon Clan Faction wouldn’t have targeted this town. It was all caused by you, and now you have the nerve to say that, thinking I’m some naive kid you can easily fool?” “...How nice it would be if you really were that easy to fool,” Lasha sighed and even retorted irritably, “Do you think there would be no trouble if I didn’t stay here? Once the artifact in my possession falls into the hands of the Old Demon Clan Faction, it’s not just this town but the entire Human Realm that will be in imminent danger. I am risking my life here.” “You must also be aware of what Killian did in the Royal Capital ten years ago. People from the Old Demon Clan Faction are all dangerous characters like that. If left unchecked, this Kingdom and even the world will eventually be destroyed by them. At that time, can you guarantee that this town won’t become one of their future targets?” These words made Shane furrow his brows involuntarily. It had to be said, the maid’s words carried some weight to Shane. It wasn’t that Shane was a compassionate person, believing he should eradicate these social tumors, but he was very clear that if things progressed in that direction, he would probably still end up being sucked into the midst of it. “Do you know why the Heroes of generations tirelessly strive to defeat the Demon King?” Laischa now looked back at Shane and said, “It’s not because they want to be heroes, nor because they are driven by the Divine Race. It’s simply because, living in this world, once conflicts explode among the Three clans, they have no choice but to resist based on their own position.” Shane somewhat understood the implied meaning of Laischa’s words. “I don’t know what calculations people of the Divine Race have now for summoning the Hero, but since the Divine Race has already secretly summoned the Hero, it proves that something big is going to happen. Perhaps your meeting with me was not coincidental, but a kind of destiny.” Both of them had been summoned to this world by the Divine Race in a state of confusion. One was being hunted by the people of the Old Demon Clan Faction. In a way, it was indeed quite fateful. “Besides, this matter doesn’t really have any downside for you, does it?” Laischa expressed that. “Have you really not considered it?” Listening to these words, Shane once again fell into deep thought. Laischa did not rush Shane, waiting quietly together with Lasha, who was still utterly serene, for Shane to reach a conclusion. Shane frowned deeply, pondering for quite a while, before finally lifting his eyelids. “What exactly did you steal to make the people from the Old Demon Clan Faction chase you like this?” Shane went straight to the heart of the matter. “...You can actually go back and ask your team captain about this.” Laischa was silent for a while, then spoke softly. “Ask Vivian?” Shane was stunned. “Yes.” Laischa curled her lip, saying, “She knows my identity, as well as what I’ve done in the past. You’ll know if you ask her.” Shane was immediately at a loss for words.
