[Volume 5]: Chapter 20 - A Sweet Girl Won’t Be Fooled By The Villainess
Ifia was surprised by Saint Tiffany's words. She took two steps back, her black eyes full of shock. Instantly, looking at Saint Tiffany's holy face, Ifia immediately thought of a key point that finally answered her previous doubts. "In the Earl of Durbe's mansion, the maid who spilled rose water because she bumped into me was arranged by you!" When Ifia said this, it wasn't a question, but a statement! She just knew it! How coincidental. With just a little turn, she could have seen Amelia talking to other demons. Usually, with Amelia's alertness, she would have noticed her arrival early on, but the scent of rose water covered her traces, so she wasn't discovered until Ifia made a little noise. Everything was because of the Saint's scheme! But Ifia didn't understand. Her being with Amelia didn't harm anyone else! The root cause of her argument with Amelia was deception, which had nothing to do with Saint Tiffany. It was just deliberately designed, and anyone would be very unhappy about it. Even though Saint Tiffany did this for what she deemed caring reasons, it still made Ifia very unhappy. "It's me! Ifia, you don't know how pure your soul is, even reborn as an angel, which is why demons have set their sights on you! Baron Amelia approached you not with good intentions. Don't be deceived by the sweet words of demons." After Ifia's affirmative statement, Saint Tiffany directly admitted. While earnestly persuading her, Saint Tiffany wanted to awaken the lost lamb and not let her persist in her delusions. However, Ifia shook her head and defended Amelia: "Even if Amelia is a demon, she's a good one. She genuinely cares for me and wouldn't do anything bad to me!" Even though Ifia had mixed feelings, she still spoke affirmatively for Amelia in front of others. Her emotions were genuine. Moreover, as a demon, Amelia didn't need to transform into her true form to deal with her, a weakling. Just maintaining her human form could easily subdue her. So, whether she was a demon or not was irrelevant. As long as Amelia wanted to deal with her, she could easily succeed. However, Amelia did not resort to violence against her. Even though she used her demon tail in various ways, she didn't harm her. In fact, she seemed to enjoy it. Well, in any case, Amelia wasn't bad to her. On the contrary, she cared a lot about her. A single "love" from her could move her so deeply. She didn't seem like a heartless demon at all. Even if she were a Saint, she had no right to stop her from being with Amelia. If she had known that Saint Tiffany had found her through Jessica for this reason, she should have refused to leave the villa from the beginning. However, the fact that Amelia was a demon couldn't be publicized. Jessica certainly didn't know. "Good demon..." Yet, after hearing Ifia's defense, Saint Tiffany suddenly smirked. Her expression contained a hint of mockery, then shifted to one of pity, and she appeared desolate. Saint Tiffany locked eyes with Ifia. In the flickering candlelight, the emerald silk ribbon wrapped around her eyes, like a snake coiling around, shrouding her eyes. In the dim basement, everything seemed eerie and frightening. "Baron Amelia is not an ordinary demon. Compared to other demons who only seek to devour human souls or torment humans, her goal is to destroy this world!" Due to the system, Ifia was particularly sensitive to the words "destroy the world." However, upon hearing Saint Tiffany say that Amelia wanted to destroy the world, Ifia found it hard to believe! Amelia wanted to live a good life with her. Why would she want to destroy the world? Nevertheless, for confirmation, Ifia called out to the system in her mind. [System, come out quickly. Is what Saint Tiffany said about Amelia wanting to destroy the world true? Is there any connection between this and the task you initially assigned me to save the world, which was later changed to capturing Amelia?] Ifia had a lot of questions! However, the system, silently eavesdropping, dared not speak out. It didn't know what to say either. Back then, if the foolish host had asked, it might have disclosed some information for the host to investigate on their own. But now, being on the same boat as the villainess, it dared not say anything. Saying anything would get it caught by the villainess, and it would be annihilated! However, by remaining silent, even if the host were foolish, they would eventually notice something fishy. It couldn't avoid being yanked out of the host's soul by the villainess and then destroyed. Considering this, the system dared not continue to remain silent and began to reply. [Host, don't be so gullible. The demon form of the villainess is an Easter egg subplot in the original work. The system doesn't know more hidden information about her~] It's true that a wise man hears one word and understands two! But the system did say something right - don't be gullible. Hence, Ifia, still earnestly, gazed at Saint Tiffany and spoke, "Lady Saint, do you have evidence to prove that Amelia will destroy the world? If there is no evidence, please refrain from making baseless claims!" If it weren't for all the help Saint had given her, Ifia would have left without giving her face. There was no need to be as courteous as she was now! "Ifia, you don't believe my words, you will regret it sooner or later." Saint Tiffany noticed that Ifia was deeply rooted in affection for Baron Amelia and didn't believe her advice. She sighed regretfully. If only she could have explained to Ifia earlier. Perhaps things wouldn't have turned out like this, and she could have prevented Ifia from falling into the hands of demons. "Lady Saint, I only believe my own eyes and feelings. For me, Amelia wouldn't destroy the world. Please, don't scare yourself. Also, not all demons are bad, just like Taromati by your side, she isn't that bad either!" The words didn't match the situation. After careful mention of Taromati, Ifia politely finished and didn't linger in the basement. She chose to leave, saying, "Lady Saint, I have other matters to attend to. I'll take my leave." After speaking, Ifia hurriedly left, afraid of being detained by Saint Tiffany and hearing more unpleasant things about Amelia! She didn't want to hear anyone speak ill of Amelia! Humph, if Amelia isn't a good demon, then who is? Saint is biased. As Ifia pondered over these things angrily, she ascended the steps and emerged from the miscellaneous room, immediately returning to the hall of the clothing store. Upon raising her head, she saw Jessica, like a trembling little chick, cowering in the corner. As soon as Ifia noticed her, Jessica immediately sought help from her eyes, prompting Ifia to shift her gaze, and she indeed saw Amelia, wearing a black dress, sitting on the sofa, her purple eyes full of amusement, looking at her.
