Nothing but Crude Talk, Lilith, Oh Lilith
But I couldn't see anything inside the castle.
Lilith said with a hint of sadness.
Her tear-streaked face would break anyone's heart.
Unfortunately, the two people standing in front of her weren't exactly normal.
After acquiring the system, Shen Yu witnessed countless acts of evil in the world while playing the role of Bai Zuo, many of whom were even more tragic and miserable than Lilith, yet powerless to change their fate.
In contrast, Lilith simply doesn't have any friends.
She lived in the best of everything, and the Duke didn't just treat her like a pretty vase; he would have people teach Lilith things that were necessary for a noblewoman.
In an era when many ordinary people struggled to survive, Lilith was already living a life free from want.
Of course, this doesn't mean Lilith is the kind of person who complains without reason; it's just that her position prevents her from seeing how the people below her live.
Therefore, Shen Yu felt that Lilith did not need anyone's sympathy.
Besides, a bizarrely constructed "person" living in the past doesn't have the time to invest emotions.
Evil Mouth, on the other hand, are a form of complete disdain for all ordinary people.
Even though Lilith is a noblewoman of high status, in his eyes she is still an ordinary person with little power.
Then, a Evil Mouth remark shattered Lilith's sorrow. "You've come to the right person! The streets outside the castle are covered in excrement!"
"If a duchess like you went out, you probably wouldn't even have a place to put your feet down."
The Evil Mouth used was extremely vulgar.
Although what he said was all the unvarnished truth.
Lilith was completely stunned.
Even Shen Yu was taken aback. This was true, but to say it in front of Lilith, who was as beautiful as an angel, required an incredibly firm and straightforward heart.
You'll probably never find a girlfriend in your life.
Shen Yu thought to himself.
Lilith felt a little embarrassed. Of course she knew that she hadn't been born into a castle. Back when she was still a low-ranking noble, her parents would occasionally take her out to play.
Although at that time she always went out in a carriage or was carried in the arms of a maid, she never let her feet touch the ground when she was on the street.
She had certainly seen the dirty ground as well.
However, that's how people are in this era. Although Lilith thinks it's very dirty, her opinion alone can't change everyone's mind.
Lilith's sadness vanished without a trace after being silenced by a Evil Mouth remark. When the topic came up again, she found herself less distressed than usual.
"I still want to go outside the castle, outside the city, and see what it's like. If I can make a truly good friend, that would be even better."
After going around in circles, we've come full circle back to our friends.
Evil Mouth never wastes words on people he dislikes, so Evil Mouth asked directly, "What kind of friends do you want?"
Lilith was stunned. "... You can talk to me? And then..."
Lilith wasn't quite sure what kind of friend she wanted.
Suddenly, the mirror emitted a strange aura that only Shen Yu and Evil Mouth could perceive.
But it soon disappeared again.
Following the scent, the Evil Mouth looked into the interior of the castle.
He looked at Lilith. Since this strange aura only reacted to Lilith's words, then he would use Miss Lilith as bait.
As an information broker, especially one who has made a name for himself in the Inner World, Evil Mouth could easily trick a noble lady who rarely left her home into obediently following him with just a few words.
Following the eerie aura, they tracked it all the way to the inside of the castle, to Lilith's room.
This is Lilith's toy room, filled with all sorts of toys and treasures collected by the Duke. You can find anything new and interesting in this room.
On the wall, a mirror inlaid with gold-rimmed gemstones also caught the eye.
Almost the instant they stepped into the room, the Evil Mouth locked onto the mirror.
The dense, eerie aura emanating from above was so obvious that even without closer inspection, it was clear that this was the source that had pulled him into the realm of the Ghost Domain.
However, the mirror itself is not the strange creature.
The mirror is merely a conduit for the eerie creature to travel between the world and the outside world. The fact that this mirror exudes such a strong eerie aura simply indicates that the creature frequently enters and exits it.
Lilith didn't know why this person wanted her to lead them into the toy room.
The Evil Mouth made her stand in front of the mirror, pout, and say to this mirror, "You want a good friend of your own."
Lilith looked completely bewildered, sensing Evil Mouth this person was somewhat mentally unstable.
She often talks to herself in front of the mirror because she is very lonely. She doesn't just talk to the mirror; sometimes she talks to her teddy bear and other toys as well.
She said this not because she hoped the toy would actually conjure up a friend for her.
It simply represents her yearning for the outside world and her desire to go out.
As a result, the Evil Mouth brought her here, as if she could find satisfaction simply by speaking to the mirror.
She stopped believing in fairy tales after her parents were killed by robbers.
However, he remained vehemently opposed to Evil Mouth.
Lilith wasn't the kind of person who was very resolute, so she stood in front of the mirror and began to say those words.
Looking at herself standing in the mirror, as if possessed, she said, "Lilith, oh Lilith, I want to have a friend."
Looking at myself in the mirror, it was as if I were telling my innermost self about my suffering.
Lilith was simply expressing her loneliness.
Where she can't see.
The eerie aura emanating from the mirror intensified, and the once calm surface began to ripple like a lake with a stone dropped into it.
The One Lilith standing in the mirror suddenly revealed a wicked smile that the real Lilith would never show, and she responded to Lilith's request.
"Lilith, oh Lilith, you should have a friend."
At this moment, the world in the mirror turned upside down.
The person in the mirror seemed to suddenly gain physical form from a flat surface; she stretched out a hand, passing through the mirror, and extended it in front of Lilith's eyes.
Lilith was so shocked she almost screamed.
This bizarre scene was something Lilith had never encountered before.
Looking at that hand, Lilith didn't dare to touch it at all.
She wanted a friend, but she definitely didn't want a monster that walked out of the mirror—something like a devil or something else.
Evil Mouth cracked his knuckles, grinned, and revealed a sinister look in his single eye.
