Chapter 60: How Old Are You?
Lulu Lana sat Night Star down and went to fetch a book. That book was originally meant to be taken away and hidden by her mother.
But Lulu Lana managed to get her hands on it by acting cute. To do so, she made several promises, which allowed her to bring the book back to her room for studying.
Meanwhile, Night Star took in the sights of Lulu Lana’s room. It had a very girly vibe with a cozy and warm atmosphere. It was like stepping into a whole new world.
Moreover, the room was spacious, much bigger than the Fish Playing House. One could easily mistake it for a living room if they didn’t know better.
Sleeping in such a room felt slightly lonely.
Just as Night Star was lost in thought, Lulu Lana returned with a book in hand.
“Look, this is the book I told you about. Go ahead and take a look,” Lulu Lana handed the book over eagerly, wanting Night Star to finish reading it as soon as possible.
Given that Night Star seemed to know everything that happened, the content of the book wasn’t that big of a deal.
Night Star took the old-looking book and slowly flipped through its pages. Her interest was unusually high, wondering how the author documented that incident.
The atmosphere became silent.
Lulu Lana just watched Night Star without saying a word, patiently waiting for her to finish reading.
And Night Star was completely engrossed, flipping page after page quickly.
After a while.
Night Star finally closed the book, which looked relatively thin, and finished reading.
“Hmm, there was no detailed process?”
This was Night Star’s first impression after finishing the book.
She assumed the author would document the event’s process in detail.
Even if not, at least some accounts or details should have been provided.
But it turned out the author seemed to have gathered information from those involved and wrote it down rather carelessly.
There was nothing specific about the reasons behind the “Demon King’s” appearance or other key details.
This left Night Star confused, especially since she knew the whole story. Only the final evaluation of the characters in the book gave her satisfaction.
It appeared they were gleeful about the Holy Church’s downfall, believing they brought their misfortune upon themselves. There wasn’t much mention of the condemnation directed toward the Demon King, resulting in one-sided opinions.
An outsider might think these people were influenced by the Demon King.
It seemed many people knew about the true nature of the Holy Church and were very dissatisfied with them.
That being said, it was quite satisfying that a terrifying entity would sanction them.
The only downside was that the terrifying Demon King might also bring disaster to others, making ordinary people suffer along with the Holy Church.
Thus, the consequences sown by the Holy Church would affect innocent people as well, making their evil even worse.
As a result, the Holy Church’s reputation likely plummeted due to the machinations of their enemies behind the scenes.
The author who wrote this book must also be unhappy with the Holy Church.
With this in mind, Night Star was completely enlightened.
Seeing Night Star finish the book, Lulu Lana couldn’t wait to ask, “So, what do you think? What’s your opinion?”
“Hmm, it’s not particularly great. There are a lot of details missing that I already know.”
“So it’s like that!”
A smile of anticipation formed on Lulu Lana’s face.
Since Night Star could express herself like this, it meant she knew more than what was written in the book.
This was truly wonderful!
Ever since finding this book, Lulu Lana had been tormented by intense curiosity.
The secrets of the Demon King and the Holy Church fascinated her moment by moment.
To her, this was an exciting and fascinating world!
If she could confirm and learn more about it, it would definitely give her an amazing experience!
More importantly:
Does the all-powerful Demon King really exist?
Lulu Lana curiously asked this question.
Night Star responded with, “Yes, the Demon King you mentioned does indeed exist and still exists in the world, though perhaps not as frightening as before.”
When she said this, Night Star looked serious, not joking around with Lulu Lana. She spoke with seriousness.
The current Group Leader is the previous Demon King.
Night Star knew this more than anyone else except the Group Leader herself.
This news stunned Lulu Lana.
“He actually does exist… it’s unbelievable…”
Lulu Lana never doubted Night Star’s words.
She inherently believed in the truth of this event, but could not have proof.
However, knowing another person could confirm this made Lulu Lana extremely shocked.
If this were true, imagine the scene of the Demon King’s birth.
Now Lulu Lana sounded almost pleading.
“Ah… Night Star, can you tell me more? I really want to know more and more details. If you tell me this, I will give you anything you want, and fulfill any request, please?”
As she said this, Lulu Lana moved closer, almost leaning against Night Star.
Her golden waves of hair fell over Night Star, tickling her skin a little bit when brushing past.
As the scent of Lulu Lana got closer, a sweet smell filled the air, possibly a combination of body wash and shampoo. It smelled divine.
At such close proximity, Night Star could see through Lulu Lana’s neckline the smooth, snow-white skin.
The creamy skin was very tempting, feeling delicate and soft.
Sensual thoughts instantly sprang up.
But Night Star slightly leaned back, unwilling to lean too close.
They weren’t familiar enough yet for such closeness.
Besides, Night Star, as a morally upright loli, wouldn’t randomly cling on.
“Ohemgee~”
Night Star coughed deliberately, placing her hand on Lulu Lana’s shoulder and asking her to sit properly.
“Have you thought this through? Sometimes, knowing too much isn’t always good.”
“Don’t worry, I’m ready for it!”
Night Star pondered for a moment.
“May I ask one thing first? How old are you?”
“Fourteen, going on fifteen.”
Night Star fell into deep thought once again after receiving the answer.
Lulu Lana seemed to be around the same age as Bai Yu and her friends, and their moral views were likely similar.
Moreover, Lulu Lana appeared more mature than her peers, having her own thoughts and judgments, so she probably wouldn’t go astray.
If this was the case, telling her this secret wouldn’t be an issue.
What would happen later if her mother noticed something amiss was none of Night Star’s concern.
This was Lulu Lana’s decision, and Night Star had given her the chance to choose.
Either way, Lulu Lana’s mother wouldn’t find Night Star anyway when looking for an argument.
“Well then, let me start, this is destined to be an unknown secret.”
“Mmh, I’ll listen carefully.”
Lulu Lana’s expression became earnest, resembling a diligent student.
She looked so adorable when focused like that~
