Evil spirits had no gender.
In fact, in a certain sense, evil spirits did not even have thoughts.
All they had was something akin to the undead's hatred of the living.
Of course, evil spirits were not undead.
They were far smarter than the undead, and far harder to deal with.
Not merely because they excelled at concealing their movements, but because of their strength and special traits.
An evil spirit's immortality was enough to give anyone a headache.
And the upper evil spirit was a special existence among evil spirits.
From the very beginning, it had been an [Aberration]!
Its immortality, several times stronger than that of ordinary evil spirits, along with its extraordinary intelligence and corresponding Mysterious Knowledge, set it apart from ordinary evil spirits.
Especially after devouring two Entry Rank items, [Doll Chess (Incomplete)] and [Blood Chess Piece], and two Tier III items, [Voodoo Pillar] and [Broken Voodoo Soul Crystal], the upper evil spirit had undergone changes even it did not understand.
It had gained a few memories.
They were probably memories from before it became what it was.
Within those fragmented, intermittent memories, it could confirm that it had been an assassin.
An emotionless, utterly cold-blooded assassin.
Yes,
And...
It had been...
A she.
That was right. A she.
Though she did not want to admit it.
She still habitually called herself "it," but in those memories, she had been a woman.
It would never admit that these fragmented memories had affected it.
But when the baroness took its hand, the awkwardness was truly unbearable.
What a joke.
How could I possibly be affected?
I'm Bloody Mary... no, I'm an evil spirit.
An emotionless evil spirit, wholeheartedly devoted to serving Boss!
"Simon, what's wrong?"
The baroness keenly noticed the change in the upper evil spirit.
"Nothing."
