章節 73: Chapter 73: Lilith (2)

Lilith POV

I got back to my suite in a nearby hotel, I have 4 guards with me even though I have no need for any of them, 2 are in front of my doors while 2 will occupy the 2 rooms next to me and rest while the other 2 is on shift.

But as soon as I opened the door inside, I can Perseus there reading a book as he's sitting in one of the chairs.

"If you want to request my body as part of the favor, can we please do it tomorrow?"

"Oh you're pretty, but I think your sister, Leilah wouldn't like it if I went after you before her."

What? Does he know who I am?

But what's even more strange is the fact that I couldn't see him and the fact that he got to my room undetected...I made sure to create barriers and made sure a person can only enter through the doors.

"The forgotten goddess, that's interesting, your mortal disguise sure looks recognizable considering you were entering a lion's den or...well a den of your sisters, maple unlike the other recognized you." he chuckled "You were bullied by the other 3 gods, you guys barely knew the roses as they lived in the mortal realm while you lived in yours.

"You were born amongst the 5 gods, 3 gods and 2 goddesses, but you were the only one born with a tail, and the 3 gods made fun of you, they looked down on you and one day, you couldn't take it anymore and in anger, infused the thoughts of superiority into the first demons, your much more inferior siblings that resembled you...which in turn lead to the current war, you were the cause to this long conflict."

He's right, one of the first heroes only turned into the first demon lord due to the demon's persuasion whose goal was caused by my manipulation in the first place, and even now, I can't take it back, it's never going to stop till one side has a victor.

"But that's not all, resentment, your name, your attributes...you resembled Leilah, one of your oldest siblings, the one that despite being weak, everyone looked up to...you envy her don't you?" he asked

"Did my sister choose a freaking former therapist as her champion?" I joked

"Champion?"

"That's the title we used to bestow, before it lost in translation."

"The black rose champion, does have a nice ring to it. So a disguise as a general to keep a close watch on your people, that's awesome...and as for whether I was a therapist, my current grandfather is one and I was a patient in my previous life."

"So how much do you know about me?"

"That the gods are not as perfect as people frame them to be." he said as he got up and approached me "I specialize in lies and deception, and from the moment you were talking with me, I knew that you were hiding something, but you didn't expect that I was close to Maple, did you? While the other might have forgotten about you due to them spending less time with you and locked away for a very long time...you never expected Maple to be there, did you?"

"Are you perhaps aiming to date all my sisters?"

"Coincidence, really, I just want goddesses since their beauty is supposedly unmatched, you guys just happened to be related."

"Why don't you just go after my mother while you're at it?"

"Don't tempt me. Is she hot?"

"I'll seriously kill you if you actually do, so don't." I warned

*****

After that, I requested him to wait and let me change which he obliged. I'm a goddess who can just use magic to form clothing and clean myself, but even gods enjoy a hot shower and wearing regular clothes like a regular mortal.

After the shower and a quick change, I now talk to 'Perseus' as Lilith the goddess of demons instead of Lilith the demon general.

I'm more curious about him than he is about me, even if my sister is weaker than me in the grand scheme of things, she is respected for a reason, I was born with similar features and even my name...Lilith was named right after her, Leilah. The similarity infuriates me.

'Why can't you be more like Leilah?' 'Why are you trying so hard to be who you aren't?!' 'Look, a tail, man, you're like an animal.'

"Well I get the low self esteem, me, you, the readers, we all share that in common even if I sort find myself over it at some point of my life." he spoke up out of nowhere "Envying or being jealous of someone isn't going to help you, you can try to rip them apart and make yourself feel less inadequate, but nonetheless, comparisons hurt."

"How do you always know what I'm thinking of?"

I don't know if it's on purpose, but he even came here wearing the formal clothing we gave him, he even got one of the rings artifact on, a tie, a jacket overlapping his suit...it's like he's prepared to go for an outing.

"Textbook examples. Everyone in this world is like a book, it's just some are harder to read than others." he shrugged

"How did you find her? As much as I hate the others, I did participate in the search for my sister, just how did you find her? Wait, you are someone like the heroes...how did she find YOU?"

"I don't know, fate?"

"If fate is real, I would have been a beloved goddess by now, not a revered one where people sacrifice someone in my honor everyday."

"Sheesh, hardcore." he commented

"Maple has experienced far worse, one time, this delusional mortal fell in love with her beauty, and by her beauty, I mean a sculpture of hers and he cut off his you now what, in her honor. Even threw it in the fire of his makeshift altar and everything."

"Please do not give me nightmares." he requested "Ughh, ew, why would anyone do that. And the sculptures, she's way hotter than that, even you should have noticed that your guards sneaked a peek."
