Capítulo 832: Chapter 759: Just One Sentence—Take Me With You
The two scheming Dragon Girls were making their own secret plans, but naturally, Shane wasn’t aware of it.
He simply shamelessly relied on his own skills, endlessly pestering until the Dragon Demon Lord had no temper left.
“Listen, this is the last time.”
Ai Yi could only throw out such a harsh statement in the end.
“Alright.”
Shane didn’t care about any specifics and just agreed first.
Anyway, as long as he could muddle through now, it was fine.
As for anything next time, that could wait until there was another opportunity.
Ai Yi seemed to have noticed Shane’s insincerity, but she no longer had the energy to say anything.
Already naturally sleepy, this Dragon Demon Lord was utterly exhausted after staying up all night for Shane, almost collapsing to sleep on the spot.
But before she fell asleep, Ai Yi still had something to say.
“Where exactly did you go?”
Ai Yi gazed at Shane.
“Well…”
Shane was troubled.
It’s not that he didn’t want to say it, but because he himself didn’t know exactly where Nien had taken him.
He only knew…
“That place was used to seal the [Hero Summoning] magic technique.”
Shane gave this answer.
Originally, Shane thought this answer would shock Ai Yi.
Unfortunately, Ai Yi not only wasn’t shocked, but also showed an expression of realization.
“It seems Sister Sela’s guess was right, there is indeed an unknown Goddess there…”
Ai Yi muttered.
“What?” Shane, not hearing clearly, instinctively asked: “What are you talking about?”
“Nothing.” Ai Yi didn’t elaborate, glancing at Shane, she said: “You just need to know that your situation is more complex than anyone imagined, and involves many things, that’s enough.”
“So, it’s another matter that can’t be directly told to me?” Shane, now used to it, calmly remarked: “I really hate you riddle-speaking people.”
Really, absolutely hate it.
“Don’t look at me like that.” Ai Yi said irritably: “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but even I have just learned some things and haven’t figured them out myself, plus what happened last night already told me that someone doesn’t want you to know too much, afraid that you might react badly, so I’ll just honestly wait for the mystery to unravel itself.”
This was something Ai Yi considered last night.
After all, it was her hinting at something that led to Shane being forcefully summoned away and disappearing before her eyes.
This shows that the Goddess who summoned Shane didn’t want him to realize certain truths, even if it meant exposing herself.
Anyway, those truths are too shocking for Shane, and could potentially be unacceptable to him.
The other party also probably doesn’t want Shane to have any incidents, hence didn’t hesitate to reveal themselves to summon Shane over.
Now that the other party has already exposed themselves, they will be more brazen, ready to monitor the situation here at any time.
In such circumstances, once they notice something wrong, the other party will likely summon Shane away again, like last night.
In other words, even if Ai Yi wanted to tell Shane the truth, he wouldn’t be able to hear it.
Besides, Ai Yi seriously considered that these matters shouldn’t be known to Shane too soon, and more evidence is needed to prove the validity of those speculations. Under current circumstances, it’s safest not to say anything.
Especially here in the Supreme Castle, without the barrier protection of the conference room, any secret might be overheard.
If among those people, there are members of the Old Demon Clan Faction, Shane would be doomed, certain to face relentless attacks from all the Old Demon Clan Faction.
Shane himself might not be afraid, but there’s a reason the Old Demon Clan Faction is considered terrorists.
If they become truly desperate, take for example the Enchanting Demon City where a group of demons set up plans for hundreds of years, only to collectively commit suicide due to Parren’s scheme recently.
As the saying goes, open spears are easy to dodge, hidden arrows are hard to defend against. From any angle, this matter shouldn’t be mentioned to Shane again.
Therefore…
“Don’t be anxious, when the time is right for you to know, someone will definitely tell you the truth.”
Ai Yi said such a bland sentence that provided no comfort whatsoever.
“Forget it.” Shane didn’t dwell on it, saying: “If you don’t want to say it, then don’t say it.”
Rather than dwelling on it, it’s better to just drop it altogether.
Since there won’t be any answers, pursuing it would only lead to a crisis of reduced hair volume.
Hence, Shane once again exercised his strong adaptability, pushing the matter to the back of his mind and stopped thinking about it.
On the contrary, Ai Yi seemed to remember something.
“Oh right, tomorrow you’re coming with me to a place.”
Ai Yi recalled the decision made by her and the other demons in the conference room.
“What place?”
Shane asked curiously.
“A good place.” Ai Yi expressed frankly: “If you can actually gain benefits there, your power might be elevated again.”
“A good place to enhance power?” Shane was no longer sleepy, promptly asking: “Is it somewhere like the Inner Sanctum in the Human Realm?”
“Something like that.” Ai Yi didn’t elaborate, not sure if it was due to laziness or tiredness, she started yawning, speaking impatiently: “Anyway, just come with us tomorrow, and you’ll find out.”
