But that's actually her most shameless trait...
Because most demon-protection devices, even witch-protection devices, cannot isolate her.
But these aren't really the main points.
For Rhodes, he was just a little annoyed that things were getting complicated.
I wonder what Cecilia is planning to do at his coming-of-age ceremony to annoy him.
Hopefully, we can safely get Ivina out of the Duke's mansion and then definitively thwart Cecilia's scheme...
He sighed softly and left the corridor.
But when he reached the central corridor, he encountered something that made him unhappy again.
As he reached the corner, he encountered Lilith.
Lilith didn't change her outfit today; she still wore a light blue dress paired with her star-like hair, and her eyes still held that fearsome, aloof arrogance.
But the moment she saw Rhodes, seven-tenths of her cold arrogance vanished, and she quickly walked towards him.
“Rhodes…”
She tried to reach out and gently grasp Rod's hand, but Rod simply shook off her arm, avoiding her grasp.
"Just say what you need to say, Miss Lilith." Rhodes maintained his indifferent demeanor.
For him, indifference was also a weapon to protect himself, a weapon to prevent himself from being offended by Lilith's actions.
When Lilith realized her hands were empty, her face stiffened, and her heart pounded for a while before she could barely suppress the bitterness in her heart.
Her inner regret was naturally intense. Since last night, she had felt increasingly remorseful for not being able to say it on the altar.
She ruined something that could have been accomplished simply by speaking it out, and now Rhodes is unwilling to even touch her.
She was indeed wrong, terribly wrong, so she was willing to try to salvage the relationship.
She spoke softly:
"No, I'm just... here to protect you, as I requested before."
"..."
Rhodes lowered his eyes.
This guy still won't give up...
He'd already said enough hurtful things yesterday, and he'd made it clear that if she stayed any longer, he'd only be harassing her, yet she still refused to leave…
Even though it's the same game, if she were willing to do something herself, she would still have a chance to snatch the godhood from him, right?
Rhodes' earlier displeasure resurfaced, and he gave Lilith a disdainful look.
"Is that so? Then you'd better protect me well."
"Well, as long as I can still be by your side... I just want you to look at me a little more." Lilith placed her hand on her chest, her eyelashes drooping.
"You're overthinking it. No matter how many seconds you stay next to me, I'll ignore you for just as many seconds."
You used to use me as a tool, so now I'll use you as a tool too, is that alright?
Rhodes smiled slightly as he faced Lilith.
At that moment, the resentment in Lilith's heart was reignited—
“I…” she began to speak.
But she also knew that she had lost Rhodes' trust.
Therefore, in the end, she could only endure the pain of regret and say:
“I’m not using you as a tool… but you won’t believe me, so even if you do use me as a tool, I won’t say anything.”
"Oh. Well then... I'll give you my first request for today."
“Mm.” Lilith nodded.
"Go, change me into a maid outfit first, then call me master and let me see."

Lilith's face froze.
Chapter 81 Lilith's Tragic End - A Turning Point (Please subscribe!)
“Rhodes, wait a minute…” Lilith’s voice was a little uncertain, her face still calm, but she seemed somewhat embarrassed, “This kind of thing…”
Although she claims she can do anything, this kind of thing is too terrible for her.
Even though an arrogant god might soften her heart and say a few soft words when facing her lover, or occasionally act coquettishly, dignity is something she can never relinquish.
Because she is a god, a god who stands above tens of millions of people and looks down on them, how could she lower herself to do such a thing?
Although a strange feeling welled up in my heart last night, now is clearly not the time to indulge in my desires...
“But didn’t you say you’d do anything for me?” Rhodes’ eyes were full of amusement. “Looks like your resolve isn’t all that great after all.”
"Leave now. I've already said it, even if you stay here any longer, I can't help you ascend to godhood."
"If you act according to your own ideas, you'll still have a chance to compete with me for the divine position. Stop being so stubborn."
The moment Lilith heard these words, the composure on her face vanished once more.
The moment the words "divine position" were mentioned, the pain within her exploded—
She behaved terribly last night. She had countless opportunities to defend herself, but in the end, she was so caught up in that panic that she couldn't even utter her clumsy words.
Once she had calmed down, when the words "divine position" came up again, she had countless things to explain...
Because in the end she lost her divine position in order to resurrect Rhodes, how could he say that she ascended to the divine position by using him?
The divine position and such are completely unimportant...not important at all.
She quickly shook her head and said, pursing her lips:
"Godhood is not important. If Rhodes wants it, then this divine position is yours."
All I want right now is to be with you.
"Do you think you can just say whatever you want?" Rhodes shook his head.
Lilith clenched her fingers.
She would never express her feelings, let alone speak of her grievances, but at this moment, she had to speak out, she absolutely had to speak out…
"It's gone...it's all gone...!"
Lilith clenched her fists tightly, gritted her teeth, and screamed.
"The divine position is gone! The world has fallen into chaos! I gave up everything after you died, because a world without you is meaningless!"
"Their god is an utterly foolish being, only realizing the irreversible loss after the person he loves dies, and desperately trying to make amends after the story has ended..."
Her voice grew increasingly choked with sobs, but the sobs became more and more intense:
"All I wanted was for you to come back, so I tried everything I could to find a way to revive you, but in the end, I did nothing. No matter what method I used, no matter what I did, you just couldn't come back...!"
The girl lowered her head, and tears fell again.
But this time, the tears weren't tears of grievance, but rather the pain of peeling away from past regrets.
"I want you to be with me, I want you to be considerate and attentive to me like before, and I want you to talk to me with a smile."
"I regret it, I really regret not being able to keep you alive, why I couldn't bring you back to life..."
"I've lost everything, abandoned all my possessions, yet I still can't find you again. Why? Why? I am a god, the strongest god..."
Rhodes's face froze at Lilith's words.
He couldn't say whether Lilith's words were true or false, but at least for now, he was frozen in place.
At that moment, the girl, whose emotions had crumbled once more, reached out her hand, and this time, she truly grasped Rhodes's hand—
Yes.
I've got it.
"I abandoned my duties as a god, left the empire thousands of miles away, and became a foolish god."
Therefore, the empire fell into crisis, and the people fell into hatred towards me.
They endured torment and anger, and after losing an epic hero, they were subjected to the rule of a foolish god.
Therefore, they raised the banner of rebellion and dethroned me.
"Everyone knows, everyone knows this..."
"I just want you back by my side... Godhood and all that, it doesn't matter at all, it's not important..."
She stubbornly raised her head, her eyes still brimming with endless grievances and tears, yet her expression remained resolute and pleading—
"So, this time, I really want you to live well, to smile, and not to be so cold to me... okay..."
Her voice grew softer and softer, more and more subdued.
She also understood that Rhodes had never seen the future of the world, so he wouldn't believe what she said...
She had nowhere to vent her grievances, and even if she presented the facts, it would be meaningless, but she still wanted to say it.
Because this is the truth, this is the reality; her affection has never been a lie...
"..." Rhodes remained silent.
His death was natural, since he himself deleted his account after [END].
But his inner peace was finally stirred.
He had already addressed the question, "Does Lilith really like him?" two days ago, saying that he wanted to let go of it.
He wouldn't try to figure out whether the monster liked him or not, nor was he willing to try...
But there is indeed a way to verify the truth of her words, and once verified, it would mean that Lilith really wasn't lying to him...
My heart is troubled again.
That's right.
