The Devil Does Not Need to Be Defeated Chapter 679: “What’s That Got to Do With Me?”

Seeing Shien Buztout’s resigned expression, Shafney continued to smile, but the look in her eyes changed, a playful glint appearing.

Usually, the n who saw her were either stunned and speechless, completely losing their composure, or fawning over her, not daring to offend her.

At first, Shafney found this amusing, but after thousands, even tens of thousands of years, she had beco completely bored.

Even the Goddesses of the God Race lost their composure before her.

Those who could remain calm and composed before the Succubus, maintaining their true nature, were fewer than ten in all of Omnipotence.

And those people were either the Three Goddesses or her Demon Lord sisters.

Only before them could Shafney relax and interact normally. Others couldn’t even catch her attention.

This was also the reason for Shafney’s playful and pleasure-seeking nature.

She genuinely found everything in this world boring.

Her situation was sowhat similar to that of Omnis, the Supre God.

Omnis was omnipotent, able to create and obtain anything effortlessly, and thus had no interest in things easily obtained.

Shafney, because others willingly offered her anything she wanted, found most things in the world uninteresting.

She liked things that weren’t easily obtained.

Therefore, she liked Airi because Airi always resisted and expressed her dissatisfaction openly, which Shafney found amusing.

Although her other sisters were also calm and composed before her, as the second of the Six Demon Lords, they generally respected her, and their eldest sister also valued her opinions and wishes, indulging her most of the ti. Therefore, although she had a good relationship with her other sisters, she liked Airi the most.

As for the Three Goddesses, they were long-ti enemies, their hostility towards Shafney stemming not from personal animosity, but from their opposing stances. Shafney, also having her own stance, kept her distance from them and naturally wasn’t fond of them.

Shafney originally thought that besides those on her level, no one else in this world could satisfy her preferences.

Unexpectedly, this Hero who intrigued her gave her a surprise.

Shafney could tell that he was also affected by her charm, showing signs of wavering.

But he seed to resist this, not wanting to be captivated by her, and tried to distance himself.

This was a first for Shafney.

Moreover, although he wavered and resisted, his words and actions remained unchanged, facing Shafney with his true nature, not hiding himself or putting on a pretense of being a gentleman or acting fearful, just because she was the most beautiful woman in Omnipotence. This made Shafney genuinely happy.

At this mont, Shafney sowhat understood why her indifferent younger sister was so fond of this Hero, and why her older sister also said he was special.

This Hero was indeed special.

Silently, Shafney added another three points to his score, giving him a total of ninety-five.

This score was unprecedentedly high. No other man had ever received such a high evaluation from Shafney.

However…

(His origins are definitely not simple either.)

Shafney pondered.

Why was a Hero summoned again after a thousand years?

Why did this Hero possess such a powerful Holy Sword and such astonishing potential, even surpassing that of Mitra? Was it a coincidence, or was there another reason?

If such a being truly achieved Transcendence, then who in Omnipotence, besides the retired one, could control him?

What would he do to this world that had enjoyed peace for a thousand years once he beca the most influential being?

Thinking of this, Shafney suddenly understood.

(Big sister arranging for little Airi to marry this Hero isn’t just to appease the Demon Race, but also to seek protection for the Demon Race’s future, right?)

Tis had changed. In this era of peace, although the Hero was still the nesis of the Demon Race, he was no longer an irreversible enemy. If the Demon Race could break free from their past and build a good relationship with the Hero, then even if sothing happened in the future, the Hero would likely consider the Demon Race as well.

Others might still harbor resentnt towards the Demon Race because of the past war, but not the Hero.

Since ancient tis, all Heroes had a common trait: they valued relationships deeply.

This Hero, although special, judging by the rumors and his attitude towards Airi, he was the sa.

Therefore, befriending him might not be a bad thing.

Of course, this was on the premise that Airi also favored him and didn’t object.

Otherwise, Sara wouldn’t sell out her younger sister’s future for this purpose.

(I just didn’t expect that we Demon Lords would also marry one day. Life is truly unpredictable.)

Shafney couldn’t help but feel a little emotional.

For millions of years, although the Six Demon Lords were all renowned beauties, they had never considered marriage.

This included Shafney, who was loved and pursued by countless people.

There was no man in this world worthy of them, or who could catch their eye.

Even among Heroes, how many could achieve Transcendence?

Moreover, Heroes were the natural enemies of the Demon Race. In the era of constant war a thousand years ago, it was impossible for them to have any relationship with Demon Lords.

Even those Heroes captivated by Shafney eventually beca enemies of the Demon Race due to external factors, impossible to have any further developnt with her.

Shafney herself didn’t care for anyone either.

Those who easily fell for her weren’t even worth a second glance.

Even the Three Goddesses had never favored any man, partly because they had no such desires, and partly because the God Race was even more aloof and long-lived than the Elves, making any relationship with a man impossible.

Therefore, Shafney never thought that one day, one of them would actually get married.

With these thoughts in mind, Shafney couldn’t help but ask Shien a question.

“Do you like Airi?”

Shafney looked directly at Shien.

“Hmm?” Shien was startled.

Seeing Shafney’s intent gaze and serious expression, Shien answered without hesitation,

“Yes, I do.”

There was no doubt about this.

“Why?” Shafney, seemingly surprised by his firm answer, said, “Although my little Airi is cute and has big breasts…”

Shien’s eye twitched.

But before he could say anything, Shafney continued,

“If we ignore her appearance, my little Airi doesn’t have any likeable qualities, right? She has a bad temper, she’s indifferent, and all she does is sleep. Not to ntion dating, she’s probably unwilling to even stay by your side. Why do you like such a girl?”

Hearing this, Shien fell silent.

After a long while, he said softly,

“Indeed, that girl has a bad temper and is quite indifferent, not even sparing a glance at those she’s not interested in, and even if countless people died before her, she could probably remain indifferent and just watch…”

However…

“I’m not ‘those people’.”

Shien said.

“What?” Shafney was taken aback.

Seeing this, Shien smiled.

“She’s never shown her bad temper to . Although she often gets angry, she always gives in to in the end.”

“She’s never been indifferent to . Even if she seems reluctant, she always agrees to my requests.”

“She might not look at others, but she always watches , observes my actions.”

“She might indifferently watch others die, but she won’t allow anyone to harm , even saying more than once that if anyone dares to touch , she’ll get revenge for .”

Shien said to Shafney.

“So, if I don’t like such a girl, then who else can I like?”

Shien’s question stunned Shafney for a long ti.

Then, she rembered what happened at the eting a few days ago.

At that ti, Airi declared to them,

“Let make this clear, that Hero is mine. Don’t even think about doing anything to him.”

This was the first ti Shafney saw Airi show such obvious favoritism and protection.

And the object of her affection was the Hero, the supposed enemy of the Demon Race.

In the past, Airi had a deep hatred for Heroes, believing they were a great threat to the Demon Race, even personally killing two Heroes to nip them in the bud.

Therefore, for Airi to make such a declaration and protect a Hero, both Shafney and Kamina were surprised.

Shafney even worried that Airi might have been deceived or bewitched by the Hero.

Because of this, Shafney’s feelings towards Shien were half curiosity and half vigilance.

But now, looking at Shien’s calm and gentle smile, Shafney suddenly felt that her worries were unnecessary.

Her younger sister valued this Hero deeply, her favoritism even making her jealous.

But at the sa ti, this Hero’s love for her sister was no less than her sister’s.

“What if one day, our Demon Race and the God Race go to war again?”

Shafney asked this difficult question. She wanted to know which side this Hero would choose.

However, Shien raised an eyebrow.

“What’s that got to do with ?” he asked.

His firm reply stunned Shafney.

“N… nothing to do with you?” She almost didn’t understand.

But this was Shien’s true feeling.

“I do have a special relationship with Airi, but that doesn’t an I have a good relationship with your Demon Race,” Shien said with a smirk, “If Airi is bullied by soone from the God Race, I naturally won’t stand idly by.”

“But if the Demon Race is in trouble, what does that have to do with ?”

Shien’s answer was completely unexpected to Shafney.

He actually separated Airi from the Demon Race.

This made Shafney sowhat displeased.

“Don’t forget, Airi is a Demon Lord, our sister,” she emphasized.

“So what?” Shien said bluntly, “She’s your sister, not mine. It’s natural for to help her, and helping you is also reasonable, but if you think you can make your slave and fight the God Race just because of this, I’m sorry, I don’t have that good of a relationship with you.”

These words were blunt, realistic, and very reasonable.

In the Demon Race, only Airi was truly important to Shien. Few others could make him change his stance.

Although Shien had so dealings with Sara, Lid, and Millu, it was just that, so dealings.

This wasn’t enough to make Shien, the Hero, betray the Human Race and help the Demon Race fight against the God Race.

“Or do you think I’ll beco your lapdog, like those Heroes and champions who betrayed their races and fought for you, only to be ignored by you?” Shien shrugged, “You are indeed beautiful, but in this world, so things can’t be obtained just because you’re beautiful.”

These words made Shafney stare at Shien, a strange look in her eyes.

“So things can’t be obtained just because you’re beautiful…?”

Shafney murmured these words. For her, who could easily obtain anything she wanted, finding most things in the world boring, these words were quite impactful.

Shien, unaware of this, continued,

“Don’t think that just because I’m the Hero, I’ll act according to your wishes.”

“Whether I’m the Hero or not, I have my own thoughts and will.”

“Whether it’s the God Race or the Demon Race, if I don’t like them, I won’t help them, and if I like them, even if others say they are my enemies, do I have to fight them?”

“I’m not like those Heroes of the past who truly believed they could save the world.”

Shien said everything he could and couldn’t say.

Shafney was speechless.
