"How about it, do you think this story is interesting?"

The slightly long story finally ended with a hoarse and dry sneer.

Aarons didn't have much memory and didn't understand the difference between the past and the present - but he knew very well how heavy the words he said lightly actually were.

——Because he knew the truth, he was regarded as a traitor by humans. And in order to protect innocent "enemies", this once strong man voluntarily became a burning firewood.

What kind of pain and sadness did she endure when she made such a decision?

"You...what did you think at the time?"

"Hehe, I don't understand any philosophy like that brave man, I just know a simple truth."

The dry body seemed to tremble slightly, and then let out a hoarse and piercing laugh again.

"If you make a choice, you must take responsibility, and if you make a mistake, you must pay the price - this world is so simple."

"...I see."

This protector of the demon clan was once a fierce god who killed the demon clan.

She made a mistake and was betrayed by humans and lost her place to stay. In order to make up for her mistakes, she chose to protect innocent demons and protected them for a thousand years at the cost of her own life and freedom.

"The little guys now may not know what happened in the past, and I am about to die, so the past doesn't matter."

What a magnificent story is hidden behind that plain narrative?

Aarons couldn't imagine what happened in that era, but he understood the problems that happened to him from the manager's story.

"... I have another question for you."

"Hehe, I know what you want to ask. You want to ask me... why I didn't die, right?"

His mind was seen through.

Aarons always felt that he seemed to be seen through by others in the past - but now, he just wanted to know the answer to this question.

"Because that is escapism - since I don't regret what I have done, I can't end my life at will and escape the responsibilities and prices I must pay."

The answer is indeed very simple.

Aarons finally understood why the manager would rather become like this and never thought of abandoning his duties.

Because she had challenged enemies stronger than herself countless times, she always had the courage to face her own suffering.

"Besides, if you die casually, there will definitely be people who will be sad for you, right?"

"...Do you still have family?"

"Family... I don't have human family anymore, but there should be a demon child who is still alive."

Demon child?

Aarons was a little surprised at first, but then he thought that since the manager could break through the taboo level and gain a long life, then there should be someone in the demon tribe who could break through.

Others seemed to have said before that there was a demon who broke through this level first, and then the manager found a way to turn the demon into a human form.

"But the child left a long time ago, and we don't know where she is now... Haha, if possible, I really want to see her again."

"What's the name of that person?"

"Lan Xiaye-it's a nice name, right?"

However, for some reason, when Aarons heard this name, he suddenly felt an unbearable pain in his head.

Have I... heard this name before?

"Brother, why, here?"

Just when Aarons was about to ask a few more questions, Yalu suddenly appeared behind him.

And when the cold and smooth touch was transmitted to his hand, the pain in his brain also eased a lot.

"...Um, Yalu, I just came to ask the manager something."

"Haha, the little guy seems a little tired. Take him back to rest, I also want to rest."

"...Brother, let's go."

Under Yalu's somewhat tough drag, Aarons had to temporarily give up communicating with the manager.

And watching the girl transformed from a monster take the man who lost his memory away, the manager who was like a dead tree couldn't help but laugh bitterly again.

"We really don't have much time."

...

"Brother, the humans outside the barrier seem to be in chaos."

"Chaos? Did you go outside just now?"

"Well, I'm responsible for investigating the situation."

The girl's essence is a monster - although Aarons doesn't know what Yalu's true body looks like, he has no fear of the girl.

HimselfIn the past, they might have been used to communicating with non-human beings.

"The demons may have a chance to get out."

"... Really? What do I need to do?"

Aarons didn't know what he, an outsider, could do, but he felt that since he knew so much, he couldn't just stand by and watch.

But he didn't have much power, and didn't know what he could do.

"Go to the demons and discuss. You need to be well prepared."

"You need to make a plan first, I understand."

Even if the humans waiting outside leave, it will be difficult for so many demons to easily integrate into the outside world.

Different from human appearance, and very sensitive identities - if these thousands of people don't have a suitable backer in the outside world, it will be difficult for them to maintain a simple and peaceful life like now.

How to solve these problems?

"I have notified the elders of the demons. Brother, go and discuss with them."

"I understand, then trouble you to take me there."

This is a major event related to the future of thousands of people, and Aarons will certainly not make decisions for the other party rashly.

- However, the development of this matter is somewhat different from what he expected.

...

"Is this the human from the outside world? I'm sorry... Since he is a human recognized by the Mist Demon Star, he must be a great person, right?"

"You are too kind. I am just an ordinary person who has forgotten who I am."

The elders of the demon clan look not much different from the young man, but the size and pattern of the horns are obviously different.

However, no matter what the other party looks like, Aarons' attitude will not change.

"No, you have helped us too much recently... We guys who have been out of touch with the outside world for a long time can't pay attention to those problems at all."

Although it sounds like a polite remark, the tone of the elders of the demon clan is obviously respectful.

Of course, they may also be afraid of the girl who stands next to Aarons and behaves very intimately with him.

"So after discussing, we old guys unanimously decided to ask you to help us formulate a safe plan... At least so that the young people can leave this place smoothly."
