Revel said somewhat indignantly, "Is he really that good? Why can't I feel it?"

Yubeluna laughed, "Because you, Revel, have never truly experienced hardship. You've been too well protected by your family, so you take all the good things in life for granted. But for us ordinary people, these good things are earned with our lives. We don't lack anything; what we lack is respect. And in the Felix family, we don't receive respect, not even the most basic dignity."

Chapter 1. Conflicting Thoughts

The demon race is a race with a long history and traditions, but in reality, the demon race has only been free from barbarity for a few thousand years. For the long-lived demon race, it is like a decade or so for humans. Therefore, many relatively barbaric rules still circulate among demons and similar races.

There are also internal conflicts within the demon race. To put it simply, the channels for social advancement are controlled by noble families, who only promote their own followers. Once this alliance of interests snowballs, no aspect of demon society can escape the influence of noble families.

It is precisely because of this that the demon race has fallen into a state of severe infighting. If the human world had not been discovered, the demon race would probably have already been engulfed in civil war.

Eubeluna was one of the victims of this wild era. Due to the war, her parents died in the war. With the meager inheritance left to her by her parents, she began her difficult journey to turn her life around. But even after successfully turning her life around and becoming a high-ranking demon, she still could not escape the fate of being a lackey for the nobles.

And to be honest, the family that Yubeluna really wanted to join was either the Gremory family or the Siddi family, because in the vast Demon World, only these two families treated their familiars as human beings, rather than tools or high-level cannon fodder.

An individual's power is quite insignificant in such a large environment, so even after becoming a high-ranking demon, Eubeluna still has no choice but to succumb to reality.

Yubeluna glanced at Revel and said, "Revel, sometimes, birth determines everything. Talent can never compare to birth. Bloodline power, secret arts, and ritual modifications are not things that ordinary demons can access. To be honest, when you and I came here, I was secretly gloating."

Raville looked surprised; she hadn't expected that Yubeluna, who had always been so respectful to her, would have such thoughts.

She thought Yubeluna's idea was utterly outrageous. If she were still the noble lady she used to be, she would have plenty of ways to torment her.

But now everyone is the same, all subordinates of Li Wei, none of them are more noble than the other. Thinking of this, Raville's face darkened. She was no longer the noble young lady she once was; she no longer had the temperament to treat people casually.

Revel sighed inwardly. Even after so much time had passed, she still couldn't adapt to her new identity. Although Levi didn't treat her like a servant, he rarely ordered her around and didn't see her often. On the contrary, Eubelina had become Levi's assistant, and their relationship was much closer.

There are always degrees of closeness or distance between people. Raville could sense that there seemed to be a barrier between herself and Levi, but neither she nor Levi took any initiative to make things progress.

Thinking of this, Raville's cheeks puffed out, making her look like a hamster.

Raville felt somewhat wronged. She felt that she had already lowered her stance enough and was still trying her best to learn how to be a good family member. She had made many efforts in secret, but these efforts were not very effective.

Yubeluna glanced at Revel, pushed the large bowl for mixing the eggs in front of her, and said with a smile, "Come and lend a hand, I'm a bit too busy to do it myself."

The egg liquid of the dragon turtle egg is very special. Even with auxiliary equipment, it takes more than half an hour to whip it to the point where it can be used to make pastries. However, if you use magic to process it, this time can be reduced to a few minutes.

"Is this alright? I have no experience in making pastries. Don't blame me if I mess it up. Besides, turtle eggs are expensive, aren't they?" Raville said, but without hesitation, she took the things and started helping.

Yubeluna smiled and said, "It's nothing. It doesn't matter if you don't do it well. Besides, I believe that these simple steps are no problem for you. Moreover, it's more meaningful to do it together."

Raville hesitated. After all, this was Yubeluna's intention, and if she interfered, the intention would become impure. She knew that this was a snack that Yubeluna had prepared for Liwei.

Raville held an egg beater in her hand. With the aid of magic, the electric egg beater was actually a burden and would even affect the penetration of magic. Raville stirred the egg mixture with the egg beater rather clumsily. Before becoming Levi's familiar, she was considered a superior person in the demon world, and things like this were never her turn to do.

Even after becoming Li Wei's consort, Li Wei did not force her to do any decent housework, so she always felt like she was just freeloading, which made her feel quite complicated.

Now that she can be put to use, she feels a little more at ease. At least, this proves that she wasn't just a freeloader.

Yubeluna said, "々.My lord is actually a very good person, but because you, Revel, haven't let go of your noble pride, you feel awkward around me. However, I believe you will change; time changes many things."

Revel did not answer Eubeluna because she did not know what she could say, so she silently continued with what she was doing.

Did she feel humiliated? Maybe a little, but that was just the beginning. Now, she's starting to get used to this kind of life.

Without servants to serve her, she had to rely on herself for everything. At first, she was indeed a little unaccustomed to it, but seeing everyone else having their own things to do while she was idle, she eventually started to feel uncomfortable.

Using magic to crack eggs was a rather boring thing, and Raville's thoughts quickly began to wander. She remembered when she first met Levi, their first encounter was not pleasant, and the honor of the Felix family was trampled on.

Revel patted her face, feeling incredibly bored. The honor of the Felix family was no longer her concern.

Yubeluna said, "Give me the things. Take the fruit out of the refrigerator, wash it, and cut it up."

“Okay, I can still cut fruit.” Raville handed the things to Eubeluna and took out the fruit for making desserts from the refrigerator next to her. She didn’t know what kind of desserts Eubeluna was going to make. Her knowledge in this area was limited, but she could still help out.

Chapter 4. The Young Lady's Change

Yubelna skillfully processed the various ingredients, while Revel said, "Doesn't the master already have a magical tool like a gourmet tablecloth? Do we still need to make all sorts of dishes?"

Yubeluna said, "The master is a being from another world. The dishes stored in the gourmet tablecloth are all versions of those dishes from another world. They don't exist in the culinary traditions of our native world. That's why I created these."

Revel said, "You've completely embraced the role of a maid. Have you forgotten the pride of a high-ranking demon?"

Yubeluna laughed and said, "Being a high-ranking demon has not brought me any benefits. On the contrary, I have gotten everything I wanted here."

Revel said, "It can't be that bad, can it? You're a high-ranking demon, you shouldn't be in such a miserable state."

Yubeluna rolled her eyes and said irritably, "Not everyone has the advantages that you, Revel, have. Without a family background, it's impossible to get your share by relying solely on your own efforts, especially when faced with the interference of vested interests. There are plenty of high-ranking demons who live like dogs, it's just that you don't know it, Revel."

Yubeluna recalled a certain extremely biased statement from a human being: "Why should the efforts of several generations be inferior to your ten years of hard study?" At first glance, this statement seems reasonable, but upon deeper reflection, one realizes that it is nothing more than a lie fabricated by those who have already benefited in order to protect their own interests. Anyone who believes such a statement is a fool, unless that person is themselves a beneficiary.

Yubeluna felt helpless. Although Revel possessed strength that was not weak even among high-ranking demons, and considering her current age, she could be considered a genius with extraordinary potential, she had been protected too well by her family and had never suffered any real hardship. Even after becoming Levi's familiar, she was not tortured or abused. Revel viewed the world through a beautiful filter.

The differences in values ​​between people are enormous. Different life paths also create huge differences in values ​​between people. Therefore, Yubeluna knows that it will not be easy for her to make Revel "sensible" in a short period of time.

However, Eubelina couldn't bear to see Revel gradually distanced from Levi, so she wanted to help Revel, even though doing so would bring her no benefit.

Of course, there is never love or hate without a reason in the world. The reason why Yubeluna was willing to lend a helping hand to Revel in this situation was because Revel was, to some extent, her protector when she was in the Felix family. It was precisely because of the protection of Revel, the most favored member of the family, that she was only a tool in the Felix family and did not become a toy.

This made Yubeluna very grateful to Revel, which is why she helped Revel – it was her way of repaying her debt of gratitude.

Yubeluna said, "Revel, the Lord hasn't restricted your personal freedom. If you have time, you can go out and see the lives of ordinary humans. I think you'll have some insights. As for why high-ranking demons don't live well, it's normal for them to not live well. If you want to live well, you can only be someone's dog. Noble families have complete inheritances, all kinds of equipment, and enormous wealth. Ordinary individuals who advance to high-ranking demons step by step have nothing except their own high-ranking demon-level magic power. If they don't become someone's dog and instead rely on their own efforts, not to mention the time involved, the fact that they are prone to conflict with noble families is dangerous enough. The number of high-ranking demons who disappear every year is more than you can imagine. Do I need to explain to you why they disappear? Moreover, the Felix family itself is a noble family with a very ugly way of making money. Otherwise, I would have done dirty work for Riesel several times, sniping those lone high-ranking demons who had conflicts of interest with the Felix family."

Raville was stunned by Yubeluna's words. She had never imagined that the internal struggles in the Demon Realm could be so intense. She had never heard of such a thing before.

Raville realized the problem. If Eubelina hadn't lied to her, then it could only mean one thing: she was a caged bird protected by her family elders, and she knew far too little about the dangers of the outside world.

After realizing her own shallowness and ignorance, Raville felt as if she were being pricked by needles. No one likes to admit that they are stupid, but the current situation forced Raville to accept this fact, which was the hardest thing for her to accept.

Revel smiled wryly, "I understand why the adults don't like me. It's because I was too arrogant before. Thank you, Eubelina, for letting me know my shortcomings. If I start to change now, there should still be enough time."

Yubeluna smiled; she was pleased to see Revel change.

Yubeluna smiled and said, "Change is not something that can be accomplished overnight. For now, let's start with how to make desserts. After all, what the master needs is a virtuous and capable helper. If the master can see your changes, his opinion of you will definitely change."

Li Wei, hidden in the shadows, overheard their conversation. He was astonished that Eubelina could change Revel; it was truly unbelievable.

Li Wei didn't know why Yubeluna did this, but if Raville could successfully complete the change, he would be the ultimate beneficiary, so he was happy to see it happen.

However, to be fair, Levi initially only intended to bring Eubelina over, since a kindred spirit is much more appealing than those naive young girls. Later, it was only on a whim that he decided to take over all of Riesel's familiars. In reality, Revel was just an add-on at the beginning.

After such a long period of observation, Li Wei can confirm that although Rachel is an aloof young lady who doesn't care about worldly affairs, she is not bad at heart. As long as she is properly educated, she can be brought back to the right path.

Li Wei didn't want any instability in his harem, so he couldn't accept girls with a yandere (obsessive and possessive) personality, no matter how cute they were. Tsundere (arrogant and haughty) girls were second only to yandere girls in terms of difficulty, and Li Wei didn't want to create trouble for himself.

That's why he hopes Raville can change herself.

Chapter 1. The Entertainment Enthusiasts Fuel the Flames

After assisting Eubelina in making the desserts and waiting for her to add them to the food tablecloth, Revel left the attic, saying she was going to conduct "human observation" to improve her emotional self-control.

Yubeluna watched Revel leave from the attic doorway.

“You treat Yubeluna like your own sister; she’s really lucky,” Li Wei said.

Li Wei's voice suddenly appeared behind her, but Yubeluna was not alarmed. She now trusted Li Wei completely, so when he appeared beside her, she felt only joy and no other negative emotions.

Eubelina turned around, gave an elegant bow to Levi, and said with a smile, "My lord, I do indeed regard Revel as my younger sister. Although I don't have a younger sister, I am quite confident in how to be a qualified older sister."

Li Wei crossed his arms and said, "Eubeluna, I have some understanding of you. I investigated your past, and your experience in the Felix family wasn't pleasant. Why are you still protecting Revel?"

Yubeluna smiled and said, "Just as you said, my experience in the Felix family was not pleasant, but even in that kind of dog shit environment, surrounded by malice, there were still people who were kind to me."

Li Wei said, "The person who is kind to you is Revel."

Yubeluna nodded and said, "That's right. It was Revel who provided me with shelter back then, which is why I was able to remain unscathed in that environment. To be honest, my feelings towards the Felix family are very complicated. I wish I could destroy that family with my own hands. However, even if I really had the power to do such a thing, I would be afraid that it would hurt Revel, and even more afraid that she would hate me."

Li Wei could understand Eubelina's current state of mind; it was a typical case of the suspension bridge effect.

However, the simple-minded Revel, although she has a bad temper, is not a bad person at heart, and she deserves Eubeluna's preferential treatment.

Li Wei said, "If I give you the power and opportunity to take revenge on the Felix family, what will you do? Of course, I will keep this a secret from Raville. I know that you hate several members of the Felix family so much that you wish you could kill them."

The well-informed Li Wei naturally knew about the feud between Eubelina and the Felix family.

Hearing Li Wei's words, Yubeluna was tempted. She didn't have any good feelings towards the Felix family. If it weren't for Revel, she would definitely have suffered a setback in the Felix family. If she wanted revenge, she would have to consider her own abilities first. If she didn't have the ability, she could only play the submissive role.

However, Eubelina was self-aware enough to know that even now, she couldn't exact revenge on the Felix family. Although her strength had improved significantly since following Levi, the Felix family was numerous and powerful. At most, she could kill a few before being overwhelmed by a swarm of Felix family members.

Li Wei continued, "I know you really want revenge. Go to the warehouse and pick out some equipment. Each piece of equipment has a special label, and you can use it in unlimited quantities. Just remember to put it back in its original place after you're done."

Yubeluna's eyes lit up, and she suppressed her excitement as she said, "Thank you, my lord. I will finish this quickly."

As for the idea of ​​taking the stuff and running away, Yubeluna never even considered it, because there was no need for it. Following Li Wei was far better than being a wandering ghost outside. Yubeluna was very clear about how she got what she had.

Li Wei entrusted this task to Yubeluna with the idea of ​​watching her have some fun. People who enjoy watching others do things often have this kind of perverse taste.

Moreover, given Eubeluna's temper, if she doesn't turn the Felix family upside down this time, she'll be drinking cola and eating potato chips upside down.

After all, most girls are petty and narrow-minded. Someone like Yubeluna, who is exceptionally patient, can be far more destructive when she finally lets loose, compared to girls with other personalities. Therefore, sending her to cause trouble for the Felix family would be much more effective than sending her elsewhere. As for keeping it a secret, just don't let Revell know. She might even gain some points, since if they cause trouble for the Felix family, Riesel will inevitably be caught in the crossfire.

··· ·Requesting flowers···· ··

Yubeluna looked worried and said, "If we go to the Demon Realm, we might have to stay there for a few days. If I'm not here, Revel might become suspicious."

Li Wei laughed and said, "This kind of problem is easy to solve."

Li Wei flicked his fingers, and a square piece of white paper appeared in front of him. Li Wei skillfully folded the paper quickly, and in a short while, he folded a small paper figure.

Li Wei gently tossed the paper figure, and the suspended paper figure stopped in front of Eubeluna.

Li Wei said, "Infuse your magic into this paper doll, and it will transform into your clone, possessing the exact same strength and memories as you. It can help you pretend that you are still here. When you return, you only need to withdraw your magic, and you can obtain the paper doll's memories of the past few days."

... ...

Yubeluna looked surprised and said, "This is a really useful spell. It's a bit of a waste to use it in a place like this."

Yubeluna channeled her magic into the paper doll, which was originally smaller than the palm of her hand and began to expand rapidly, transforming into another version of herself in just a few seconds.
