Book 4: Chapter 174: Pitiful

“A grave marker?”

Lilith’s cheek twitches as she subconsciously shrank away from them and said cautiously, “You guys aren’t some mirages imagined by someone too, are you?”

“Who are you calling a mirage?!” Diana growled and tossed the wooden board away.

“We’re as real as we can be, this thing must be someone’s prank!”

“Is that how you talk to your seniors?” Lilith narrowed her eyes at Diana. “Maybe I should teach you some manners on behalf of your master.”

“Hmph, you can’t even move right now. What can you possibly do to me? Come spank me if you can!” Diana stuck her tongue out at Lilith.

Unwilling to show her weakness, Lilith bared her little sharp canines menacingly at Diana, while formulating plans to teach her disobedient little martial niece once this was over.

The others smacked their own forehead in resignation, amazed at how these two could still bicker at a time like this.

“What do we do now?” Durance stopped their banter, pointing to Titan 12138 in his hold. ”And how do we deal with her?”

“The entrance to this world has been unsealed. The others probably went back. You guys should go now, bring Lesiah with you.”

Lilith looked at Lesiah, whom Rosdell helped up. A strange anger rose in Lilith’s heart when she saw the pathetic state the princess was in.

Lesiah almost lost consciousness because of the strange smoke, but she managed to crack open one eye. With a barely audible voice she said, “Lilith... Don’t do... stupid things.”

Lilith gave her a rare gentle smile. “Don’t worry. When have I ever done stupid things?”

“Says the person who often does that!” Lesiah shot back at her angrily. However, since Lesiah was too weak, she sounded like she was whining instead..

“Haha, it’ll be fine. There’s a good saying that a scourge will last a thousand years, so a scourge like me can probably live a few million years.”

Lilith gave Diana a look and the latter immediately understood what Lilith meant. She snapped her finger at and cast a sleeping spell on the princess.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

“You...” Lesiah was going to speak more but getting hit by Diana’s sleeping spell when she was still under the strange smoke’s effect, she could not last even a second before falling completely unconscious.

She had done all these for only two purposes ⁠— to become “real” and resurrect her clan. Although the old titan was in denial that she had failed, she continued using the law of this world to deceive herself.

Rather than calling her despicable, Lilith found Titan 12138 pitiful.

Titan 12138 clearly knew she was only a mirage and that she was merely living in someone else’s dream. Lilith did not dare to even imagine how painful it was for her to live all alone for thousands of years.

Perhaps Titan 12138 had long lost her sanity, just as Lilith had guessed the first time she met her. That was because only a lunatic could totally deceive herself.

Even so, Lilith would not show pity on her again this time.

Absolutely not.

Whether the old titan was deceiving herself or not, morally kidnapping Lilith and nearly getting Lesiah involved in this mess was the last straw for Lilith.

No matter how Titan 12138 tried to guilt trip her, Lilith was not related to that king from a thousand years ago in any way.

So why should she, an innocent passerby, bear the consequences of that person?

Helping the titans to fight against the black devils was the final goodwill from her. She owed them nothing, so now... She wanted to rely on her own will to end this farce!

Lilith’s body was almost completely transparent by now, as if she would become one with that pillar of light at any moment from now.

Seeing that the ritual was about to be completed, the expression on Titan 12138’s face grew even more delighted and frenzied.

Just one step! She was just one step away from achieving her goal! The plan she had laid out over the past one thousand years had not been in vain!

The king shall finally become our god! The clan will be resurrected! Yes, that’s what I believe! So... it will definitely be a success! NO ONE CAN STOP ME!!

“That’s why I said... You’re really pitiful.”

Lilith counted the time and figured that Durance and the rest had probably left this world with Lesiah. She sighed at Titan 12138. “You used your whole life and gave everything for an impossible goal.”

After saying that, a black flame danced on the tip of Lilith’s finger.
