Chapter 40: Old Allies "You prefer to rely on selling your beauty..."
Of course, Aveda herself understood that her behavior last night was inappropriate and she used a poor excuse to avoid the problem.
Even if we can avoid talking about this issue now, we must face it eventually.
This was the first time she was pointed out by the demon in such a short time.
In the past, things either didn't progress to this point, or she would just deal with it perfunctorily because she didn't care about the consequences.
Avida agreed to Mammon's visit to the so-called potential partner as a way to divert attention.
Before leaving, the text she edited the most was the text message to Kaluyege.
The main point she wanted to tell Kaluyege was not complicated. She just wanted to do something for an old friend and take a leave of absence from going to Babirus today.
There was no problem with the class arrangement. Mr. Balam readily agreed to help with the class. Today was just a one-period fantasy biology class.
The problem was tone, choosing the right words and placing them in the sentence so that the message didn’t read as a cop-out and yet still made clear her apology for last night.
Mammon leaned over to see how Aveda chose her words. In the first version, she used more intimate terms, as if it was a natural chat without any incident.
Before she could be surprised by the disgusting message from her old friend, she saw that Aveda had just finished editing, and the next second she frowned and deleted all the text messages that began with the name "dear" and ended with a heart symbol.
In the second version, the text on the text interface deleted the sender's unnecessary emotions and changed to the tone of colleagues in the workplace, "Senior Kaluyege, due to..."
"Are you planning to break up as soon as we get back?" This isn't an internal communication app, and I don't want to be discovered, so I have to deliberately keep my distance.
Even Mammon, a demon, felt that this version of the text was too cold.
Of course, Avida didn't want to break up. After all, they had only been dating for a few days. Even if she was just attracted to him, she wasn't bored yet.
Before she heard Mammon ask this question, Avida had no intention of breaking up.
Avida was shocked, but she couldn't figure out the reason for this feeling.
The resentment in her heart would lead to Iveda's selfish behavior. For example, she would not enter the house at the agreed time or without the owner's permission, and she would even silence the owner's subordinates.
Because a few guys from the Six-Fingered Clan were a bit noisy, and even when Avida came in, they used their magic to attack, which was simply unnecessary.
At this stage, the hero can no longer gain a sense of accomplishment by defeating a few demons.
"You are still brooding over what happened last time." Baal, who was wearing clothes that were completely different from his usual style, looked like a prince at first glance if he didn't say anything.
He was referring to the last time he tried to break through the defenses of Aveda's house.
He originally thought that Avida would set up a rare magical defense for her residence. He did feel the hidden exquisite magic patterns around the house, but when he tried to crack it, he was surprised to find that the level of defense was not as complicated as he had imagined.
After taking some effort to destroy the defense and successfully approaching the house, Bala could still sense that vague special magic. Could it be inside the house?
At that time, Baal grasped the door handle with doubt, but was stopped by Avida who suddenly appeared the next moment and stopped him from making any further rude moves.
Just from the strength coming from her arm, Baal could tell that Iveda was unhappy.
However, her anger was not as deep as that time. Baal knew how to deal with the unhappy Avida. He just needed to stop exploring the secret and generously promise compensation.
But he also knew that the measures he took would not immediately offset his previous destructive behavior.
Baal discovered early on that Iveda was a demon who would hold a grudge and was rarely willing to suffer any loss.
He originally thought that the last conversation was not pleasant and that Avida had already vented her dissatisfaction.
Looking at it today, it seems that I didn’t vent all my anger last time.
He didn't really care about Aveda's presumptuous intrusion. When she approached him, he had already sensed the familiar spatial fluctuations.
Anyway, this guy had done this before. He would suddenly appear using space magic, excitedly bringing a stack of plans to share with him. Baal still missed those days.
Although Avida's plan seemed idealistic and unrealistic to him, it did not see the fundamental problems of the demon world.
Baal thought that Avida didn't seem to understand that the current demon world was not simply lacking a demon king.
But she really thought that she could become the demon king who changed the demon world.
Such sincerity surprised and satisfied Baal.
"To attend the tea party." Baal corrected the wrong wording in Iveda's question and showed his trained and excellent smile.
He briefly played the role of a nobleman specially for the Demon Princess, wearing a white suit-like outfit.
Even the tone became that of a well-educated person.
Gentle, gentleman, handsome.
How old is the Demon Princess? Is she too young to be deceived by such a male demon? Avida felt uncomfortable all over because of his hypocritical smile, wondering if the suspension bridge effect was too misleading.
Princess, can't you see the problem?
Is the Demon Clan really okay?
Unable to bear it any longer, Aveda took two steps back and shook her head. "I didn't expect you would prefer to gain political power by selling your beauty."
