Chapter 243: 242 Nima, thrilling Chapter 243: 242 Nima, thrilling “You…”
Shane wanted to ask Lasha something about Laischa.
However, before Shane could ask his questions, Lasha spoke first.
“I know what Mr. Shane wants to ask, but I must remind you that no matter what you ask, as long as it pertains to Lady Laischa, even if I know, it is impossible for me to reveal it.” Lasha looked at Shane and said, “This has nothing to do with my personal will but is an instinct engraved in Magic Life entities. I think Mr. Shane would understand.”
Upon hearing Lasha’s words, Shane swallowed the question he was about to ask.
Because he had remembered one of the most revered traits of Magic Life.
That is, they would not betray their masters.
This was not a characteristic initially.
Initially, when the Demon Clan created Demons, these creatures did not possess this trait, which led to low Spiritual Wisdom Demons not following the Demon Clan’s orders without being tamed and might even become violently feral, attacking their masters. Therefore, the Demon Clan had to abandon their dominion over Demons, letting them reproduce in the Human Realm, becoming the most populous group on the surface.
Learning from this lesson, every subsequent creation of Magic Life had been imbued with traits of absolute obedience and loyalty.
Just as Lasha said, this had nothing to do with their personal will but was an instinct ingrained in Magic Life entities.
This was also an important criterion distinguishing Magic Life from the Demon Clan and Demons.
Simply put, Life created with magic that possesses the trait of never betraying is Magic Life.
As for the initially created Demons, they had already left the scope of Magic Life and had become mere Life Species.
And Lasha was a genuine Magic Life.
Thus, Lasha would never betray Laischa, her master, even if she wished to.
Thanks to this, once it concerns secrets closely related to the master themselves, Magic Life cannot voluntarily reveal them, even if subjected to Spirit Magic brainwashing or control.
This had led many from the Demon Clan and Mages to highly praise Magic Life, trusting their creations in ways others could barely compare.
Furthermore, numerous Mages and even the Demon Clan would spend vast efforts to collect precious materials to create Magic Life to serve themselves.
Because Magic Life would never betray, nor would they leak any secret information related to themselves regardless of the methods used, Mages naturally wanted to create such beings, to have a completely trustworthy and capable assistant by their sides.
Remembering this, Shane suddenly realized something.
“Perhaps, the pair of twin Demons by Jiasinta’s side are Magic Lives he created.”
Otherwise, how could both twins be so exceptional as to both reach Level 88?
The twin Demons seemed utterly loyal to Jiasinta, even being jealous of Shane, whom Jiasinta favored immensely. This likely also stemmed from the fact they were Magic Lives that would never betray their master and were boundlessly loyal.
Even more so, Shane thought of Nien.
“Could that Goddess be a Magic Life created by the Supreme God Ominis in her own image?”
If that were the case, then Nien might know some secrets not known to other Divine Race members, such as ways to summon Heroes alone without causing much disturbance or repercussions.
And her being unknown might be because the Supreme God Ominis had never revealed her existence?
Could her resentment towards Supreme God Ominis stem from her master entering a deep sleep on her own, leaving her abandoned?
Shane pondered these possibilities.
“No wonder I’ve been seeing so many people who look identical recently…”
So, this was not a coincidence after all?
Shane felt he had grasped some truth.
At the same time, Shane also understood why Lasha would serve him.
“Is it because Lady Laischa left orders before her departure that you cannot defy, thus you treat me as your master and serve me?”
Shane looked at Lasha.
“Yes.” Lasha said indifferently, “Lady Laischa instructed me to follow Mr. Shane before she left, so Mr. Shane is my master for now, and I will serve you as I served Lady Laischa.”
This was indeed Lasha’s principle of action.
Whether it was changing Shane’s clothes and completing his washing without him noticing, or managing the entire Lazahad family like a paradise, these were the things Lasha did while serving Laischa; now, she was merely reproducing them exactly.
“Even if you say you are not my master and that I don’t need to bother, I still can’t do it because these were the instructions left to me by my creator. Whether I want to or not, I cannot defy them.”
Lasha stated a fact that was somewhat hard to smile at.
Shane did not know what to say for a moment.
After all, since this was the situation, even if Shane said more, Lasha would not likely change her course of action.
She was simply following the instructions left by Laischa in serving Shane, and it wasn’t that Shane had become her master.
Therefore, even if Shane told her to stop, she wouldn’t be able to.
“Damn, I don’t know whether to be happy or sad.”
Being diligently served by such a beautiful and lovely maid should have been a joyful thing.
Yet, this maid was only doing these things because she couldn’t defy her real master’s orders, which was quite frustrating.
Of course, Shane did not perceive any unwillingness in Lasha.
No, this maid seemed to have no emotions whatsoever; she was an emotionless sister.
Faced with this emotionless maid, Shane couldn’t help but ask.
“Do my words have any effect on you?”
Shane at least wanted to confirm this point.
“Until the Lady reclaims me, as long as it doesn’t potentially affect the Lady and is within the scope of my abilities, I will follow Mr. Shane’s instructions.”
Lasha stated this without any hesitation.
Shane was silent for a while, then couldn’t help but verify.
Lasha affirmed with utmost calmness.
“And if it’s too much?”
Shane could no longer hide his slight ulterior motive.
However, Lasha still said this.
“As long as it is within my abilities, no matter how excessive, it’s not a problem.”
Lasha remained expressionless.
Shane found himself in a prolonged struggle that any man would understand.
It couldn’t be helped.
She had said so, hadn’t she?
Did she really say so?
Should he then do something bold?
Thousands of gigabytes worth of images flashed through Shane’s mind, nearly causing a nosebleed.
