The Villain Saint is my secondary account

Moreover, most importantly, Ella's fate line is exactly the same as that of ordinary natives, since her body originally belonged to the Loren natives.

However, for a moment Ella considered whether to just go all out against this demon god, but with too little information available, it was still too risky, so the thought was quickly dismissed.

Everyone's stats are suppressed to the Saint rank by the laws of the present world, so fighting will depend on mechanics. It may not be advantageous to attack without knowing the details of the opponent's abilities, not to mention that a powerful demon army is lurking around within a hundred miles. It's better to be cautious.

"Let's get back to the point."

After the little incident ended, Samael snapped his fingers.

Two smooth stone stools rose simultaneously from behind Ella and Susie Yun's legs. "I'll call you Miss Brandon for now. I invited you here mainly to ask you a few questions..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Susie Yun's throat bobbed slightly, and she placed one hand on her chest. Ella's gaze became even more focused.

The leader of the Hell Legion, a girl known as a demon goddess, specifically sought them out; the ensuing conversation must be of great importance.

This might involve the key to the war that is about to sweep across the continent...

How did you and Ye Xiao meet?

Miss Samael asked.

"……Forehead?"

Su Xiyun was stunned.

"Tell me, how did you and Ye Xiao meet?"

The other person repeated the same words, this time with a slightly raised tone, sounding more annoyed than their usual cold demeanor.

Susie Yun blushed slightly and glanced at Ella.

Look at me, I'm useless... I don't even know what this person's question means.

Ella shrugged, indicating with her eyes that she couldn't help either.

She had been waiting anxiously for ages, only to get this? Did this demon god summon everyone just to hear gossip?

"Um, the first time we met was at the player convention in the Imperial City..."

Su Xiyun hesitated for a moment, then mumbled something.

She wasn't exactly nervous, just inexplicably a little shy about talking about her romantic history in front of strangers.

"Well, keep talking."

Samael didn't seem to mind; in fact, it seemed that was exactly what she wanted to hear. She straightened her skirt armor and then knelt down on another stone stool that had been summoned from the ground.

"Hmm...it was a beautiful, sunny morning..."

Susie Yun initially stuttered a bit, but then she found that the other person was listening quite attentively. As she spoke, she became engrossed in her own story, and the narrative flowed more and more smoothly.

As Susie Yun spoke more and more enthusiastically, Miss Samael listened attentively, which made the atmosphere inexplicably harmonious for a moment.

But it was somewhat strange, like a warm tea party between young girls, but it was held on a hill surrounded by ferocious demons and filled with bloodshed.

The two of them were completely absorbed in talking and listening, while Ella, standing next to them, felt like she was in prison.

She didn't come here to listen to gossip; she took such a big risk to venture into the lion's den to gather intelligence!

I've been sitting here for ages, and all I've heard is talk!

The worst part was that Miss Su would embellish her story, making Ella so embarrassed she almost dug her toes through the floor.

According to Ms. Su, she fell in love at first sight with a cool and handsome young man at the first meeting of the players' conference—no, she clearly didn't even look at her once during the meeting.

Then, during the academy exam, the young man concealed his true strength and deliberately lost, all so that he could enter the academy with her... This was clearly a requirement of the player alliance's mission.

After that, the young man, with her in his arms, single-handedly fought his way through thousands of cult members at the cult's stronghold outside the city, and left without leaving his name...

Putting aside the fact that Susie Yun was clearly wary and kept a great distance from him at that time, and that he would not act like a hooligan and hug a girl he didn't know well, the bar couldn't even hold several thousand people.

Moreover, Ella clearly remembered that when she, as Ye Xiao, wanted to add Su Xiyun as a friend on the system, she was decisively rejected by this girl on the grounds that she was "suspicious".

As for what comes next, such as the love-hate relationship in the secret society, and the heart-wrenching reunion in the foggy city...

Ella was too tired to keep up with the complaints; her little head was filled with question marks.

If she didn't know that she was the protagonist of the story, she would have thought that Su Xiyun was talking about a romantic story in a parallel world where another person named "Ye Xiao" was actually an overpowered protagonist.

But Ella felt extremely uncomfortable listening to such abstract things, while Miss Samael, with her legs crossed and a haughty expression, seemed to be listening with unusual focus, and would occasionally ask for details.

Even Ella felt embarrassed to interrupt Miss Su; in the strangely harmonious atmosphere, she seemed to be the one who was superfluous.

……

As dusk fell, Susie Yun's long and drawn-out story, which resembled a soap opera, finally came to an end.

Ella looked drowsy, her head bobbing as if she were fishing.

During the journey, Miss Samael noticed that Susie was thirsty, and even had her servants bring her tea.

Fortunately, this long ordeal is finally coming to an end.

After speaking for quite some time, Su Xiyun seemed to belatedly realize her mistake, covering her blushing face with one hand, "Sorry... I accidentally talked for so long..."

"It doesn't matter,"

Miss Samael stood up, arms crossed. "Hmph, I thought he was just a thief... but I didn't expect we could actually reach an agreement."

Ah, consensus? What consensus?

Ella, who was still half asleep, suddenly woke up, thinking she had missed something.

"Hmm... Miss Samael is surprisingly easy to get along with."

Susie smiled gently.

Wait a minute, what are they talking about?

Ella was stunned. She was in a daze for a while. Why couldn't she keep up with the conversation between the two of them?

"I've just acknowledged you, but don't think that means we're no longer enemies."

Miss Samael remained haughty, arms crossed. "But that's for later, Miss Brandon. For now, I'd like to discuss a collaboration with you."

Chapter Sixty-Six: A Meeting Too Late

"cooperate?"

Susie tilted her head. "What do you mean?"

"First of all, to be honest with you... back on Earth, I was Ye Xiao's girlfriend."

Miss Samael did not answer directly, but spoke slowly.

Ella, who had been standing next to him in a calm atmosphere for a while, suddenly widened her eyes, almost popping them out of their sockets.

Wait a minute, what did she just say?

Miss Samael looked at the serene Susie Yun and raised an eyebrow curiously, "...Aren't you surprised?"

"Well, actually... I probably guessed it too."

Susie Yun answered calmly.

No, how did you guess that?

Am I the only one who doesn't know about this?

Ella was stunned.

She really couldn't hold back. If she hadn't clearly sensed that she, as Ye Xiao's other half, was still trekking through the mountains and rivers on the other side of the forest, she would have wanted to open a portal to go and ask herself what was going on.

"Since you know some details of his life, I thought you must have known him before."

Susie Yun smiled gently.

No, what details could possibly lead me to believe I had an ex-girlfriend? Could you tell me about them too?

For the first time in her life, Ella felt her scalp tingle from talking about herself, and nervously raised her hand to touch her nose.

"...For example, he has a habit of touching his nose when he is embarrassed or nervous, but he is very calm most of the time, so it is hard to notice unless you have been around him for a while."

Susie Yun smiled and continued talking to Miss Samael.

Ella, who was standing nearby, immediately pressed her right hand down with her left hand, which was trying to touch her nose.

Damn it, this kind of rudeness will never happen again.

The two continued their conversation. Although it was Susie Yun and Samael talking, Ella had the unsettling feeling that they were secretly observing her.

The most crucial point is that these two people, whether they were apprentices of Sherlinford or what, somehow knew exactly what Ye Xiao liked to eat, what he liked to wear, what color his underwear was, and even his quirky habits of rolling up his blankets when he slept.

No, where did they find out all this?

And it always feels kind of creepy, doesn't it?

Ella felt inexplicably embarrassed, as if she had been completely exposed, yet she dared not make any move, fearing that she would be discovered to be connected with "Ye Xiao," whom they were discussing.

The two girls chatted and seemed to hit it off immediately. Ella began to wonder if she had made a mistake in agreeing to let Susie come over in the first place.

"...Ahem, I've gone off on a tangent."

Miss Samael coughed lightly, bringing the topic back on track. "But since you're already prepared, Miss Su, I think things will be easier from here on out."

Susie Yun revealed her real name to Samael during their conversation, which Ella didn't find offensive.

After all, the other party even knows what color Ye Xiao's underwear is, so this kind of thing probably doesn't matter anymore.

She was more curious about what exactly her Earth "girlfriend" was all about.

"Although what you see here are all demons, in reality, the power I truly belong to is the company."

Miss Samael continued, "What I want to do with you is to ask you to help persuade Ye Xiao to join the company."

"Feel sorry……"

Despite the pleasant conversation just now, Su Xiyun was very decisive in her refusal: "Ye Xiao will not join the company."

"Don't rush to refuse,"

Miss Samael's lips twitched slightly before returning to their usual flatness, and Ella wasn't even sure if it counted as a smile.

"I understand the many conflicts between the company and Ye Xiao before. In fact, I don't care about the company's so-called philosophy."

"The reason we want him to join is not because we want him to do anything for the company, but because we can work together here so that we can all go back together after this is over. Of course, Ms. Su, that includes you too."

"go back?"

Susie Yun keenly caught the key words in Miss Samael's words.

"Blue Star."

Miss Samael shrugged. "The world is already on the verge of breaking apart, as you've probably heard."

Susie Yun nodded as if she understood, "But... I think what Ye Xiao really wants is to save everyone here."

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Miss Samael narrowed her eyes slightly, as if a chill was emanating from them.

"That's just because he's been brainwashed by that damned world-destroying witch."

"A world-destroying... witch...?"

Susie Yun was hearing this word for the first time and was somewhat surprised.

Ella, however, was terrified in that instant.

Although she often mentioned the term "world-destroying witch" in her mind... that was Ella's title in her previous life.

No one in this lifetime has ever used such a title.

Could it be derived from the fragments of time that the company found, as mentioned by Alex from Fog City?

Ella pondered.

“That’s Ella Hevy’s most infamous name… Oh, I forgot, you probably don’t know that, because it all happened in the previous life.”

Miss Samael explained.

Susie Yun still looked confused, "Last time refers to..."

“In the previous ‘life,’ Miss Su, this world has already gone back once.”

Miss Samael opened her palm, and a ball of flame swirled above her palm.

“I and you… have both died once. The difference is that I have retrieved some memories from my previous life through the power of the World Tree system.”
