That was something that had been mentioned before.
Lion King's Agency would find talented orphans from all over the world and train them to be able to deal with Demons and complete missions. It was not just to help helpless children, but to use their power to achieve their goals.
Shue Cai was one of them.
"Just like how Agurola saw his reflection in Astarutti, you saw your reflection in Astarutti as well. That was why you rushed out to rescue Astarutti, whose beast had gone berserk. You were also listless along the way, as if someone had opened up a wound that you didn't want to pay special attention to."
Rozen didn't have any protective feelings for the fairer sex, and he directly spoke out Shue Cai's thoughts.
"I'm afraid you're more concerned about Astarutti than Agurola, right?"
There was nothing he could do about it.
No matter what, Agurola had been saved, and now he had the life he dreamed of. He could go to school with Rozen, participate in club activities with Yusha, and eat ice cream with everyone else. There was not a day without a smile on his face.
On the other hand, Shue Cai was still a tool of Lion King's Agency, a tool that could be thrown away after using it.
"Lion King's Agency sent a little girl like you, who hasn't even graduated from high school, to the monster that sealed the fourth true ancestor. This is proof."
Rozen ruthlessly revealed such a fact.
If they really wanted to find someone to monitor the monster that sealed the fourth true ancestor, then it would be better to send someone at the level of Three Saints. Even if Lion King's Agency's Sword Sorcerer had the Type-Seven Assault Demon Machine Gun, it would still be extremely dangerous.
But Lion King's Agency still sent Shue Cai.
Rozen didn't believe that there was no one better than Shue Cai in Lion King's Corps, and he also didn't believe that there was no one else in Lion King's Corps who could use the Type-Seven Assault Demon Vanquisher Machine Gun.
In view of this, Lion King Agency knew that this task was extremely dangerous, but they still sent Shue Cai. Even if Shue Cai died, there were still many replacements in Lion King Agency. On the other hand, the death of Three Saints was a huge loss for Lion King Agency.
Xue Cai was well aware of this fact.
Thus, Shirley reacted violently to Astaruti's encounter, and her behavior also became abnormal.
"… Senior is really smart."
Xue Cai opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something to cover it up, but she gave up in the next second.
"You saw through my identity the first time we met, and you saw through my identity immediately when you confronted Luotan City's Teacher Annihilation. Senior, you're only one year older than me, but I feel like you're more professional and intelligent than a veteran Spellcaster. No wonder Master values you so much, telling me to be careful time and time again."
As Xue Cai spoke, her gaze shifted away from Rozen.
"You're right. Just like Astaruti, I'm a tool that was trained to be used and thrown away. I've been aware of this for a long time, but I didn't want to admit it."
Xue Cai finally came clean about this.
As a Sword Witch in Lion King Agency, Shue Cai was only fourteen years old.
However, at the age of 14, Shue Cai's skill as a Sword Witch was almost perfect. Even if she didn't use the Seven Assault Demon Subduing Machine Gun, she could suppress a high-ranking demon without losing. Her combat ability was even comparable to a high-ranking orc, which showed how excellent her ability was. She was one of the best among her peers in Lion King Corps.
It was not hard to imagine how much effort Xue Cai had put in and how strict her training had been to become a vanguard specially cultivated to deal with demons.
It was precisely because of this that Xue Cai was able to unknowingly notice exactly what sort of objective a person like her was fostered for.
So, Shue Cai accidentally superimposed herself on Astaruti, who was also made into a combat tool.
Shue Cai shouldn't have told others about this.
Not to mention, she only knew Shue Cai for a few days, and Shue Cai was the one she was monitoring, who might become her enemy.
But Shue Cai was also very observant. After a few days of getting along with Shue Cai, she understood that her clumsy lies were useless in front of Shue Cai, who seemed to be the same age as her, but was actually very meticulous and smart.
In such a situation, Shue Cai seemed to have found a way to vent, and she began to tell her story.
"I've been thinking for a long time, I don't know when I will die in an unknown place, just to provide some help to Lion King Agency."
Shue Cai said with a stiff face.
"When I came to this island and received the task to monitor Shue Cai, I also thought that since the enemy has the ability to seal the Fourth True Ancestor, and I don't know when the seal will be undone, will my surveillance really work in the face of such an existence?"
Xue Cai believed that the end of her life would be on this island.
Or Rozen found out that he was spying on him, and he was eliminated.
Or she was killed by the Fourth True Ancestor after the seal was undone.
That was why Shue Cai came to this island with such a consciousness.
Under such circumstances, one could imagine how much pressure this young girl had accumulated.
"After seeing what happened to Miss Astaruti, I couldn't help but wonder if this is the end of a tool."
Shue Cai lowered her eyes.
"If that's the case, then why did I …"
Why did I continue to live?
Shue Cai was confused.
Then …
"Bam!"
Xue Cai's head exploded with a violent blow.
Rozen knocked Shue Cai's head hard, and it was a very hard knock.
"It hurts …!"
Shue Cai couldn't help but cover her head and take a few steps back, tears welling up in her eyes.
"What … What are you doing …?! Shue Cai! "
Shue Cai glared at Rozen, tears welling up in her eyes.
To this …
"I'm the one who wants to ask why you treat others as terrifying and dangerous people."
Rozen said with extreme dissatisfaction.
"Although it's your problem to monitor me, do you think I'm a tyrant or a beast if you think you're going to die just because you're here to spy on me?"
As he spoke, Rozen glanced at Shue Cai.
"Also, don't be so sentimental at such a young age. That will only make people think that you're delusional. Do you really think you're the heroine of a 2D novel? Do you really have so many settings?"
With a pout, So Rozen took out a photo from his pocket.
It was a photo that had been glued together, as if it had been cut in half.
It was the photo of Shue Cai in her underwear, hugging a cat doll in the dorm with a blissful smile on her face.
"Why … Why is this photo here …?!"
Shue Cai turned pale with fright. At the same time, her pretty face was dyed red. The self-abandonment on her face was replaced by shame and anger.
Seeing this, Rozen revealed an evil smile.
