Volu Lady in the Night

Upon hearing Lishella's confession, I finally understood

This girl send me this letter because of her own selfishness

And because I could very well sympathise with her, since I used to be just like that, too, I wanted to do everything in my power to save her

Afraid, sad, but at the sahtforward and pure

That is exactly why

「That is exactly why I can't make your dreahtly confused

But now that I got to know her a little bit better, I knew that deep inside she was shocked greatly

「I, I see……」

Her grip on the dress on her knee was so strong that her hand turned white

Her face was yet again an expressionless ave up, and it was ry

「Wait a second, I cannot do it without setting a certain condition first」

Before Lishella could even blink in surprise, I continued with my words

「Now listen to me: you may think that you are pretty satisfied with the life you led until just now, but that's just a load of crap Eating dinner together? Everywhere except for the aristocratic society that's a common concept There's no way that demon could be satisfied with just that You see, dereedy creatures」

Froirl's soul as his prize

However, all of ht if Lishella was still okay with letting the deht after I said that Lishella looked slightly upset

「Since I am all healthy now, I think I have enjoyed my life to the fullest Don't you think noould be the best possible time to offer my soul to the demon, while it is still delicious? That way he can enjoy it more, too」

「E, enjoy?」

Ah, crap Now I've done it I broke her beyond repair

I stood up and sat right next to the bewildered Lishella

「You are so young, so it is YOU who should enjoy your life some more If you promise me that you will try to do just that, I can offer you my full cooperation」

「But, my life was already decided for me I have only so little time to be truly free」

「If that's the case, that's h If your body can't be free, then let's make it so that your mind is」

I could only phantom the true intentions of the demon that made a contract with Lishella

But I would like to think that this de any kind of regrets

…… And if it turns out that he's just one big son of a bitch, I shallback

「You shouldn't give up on your own happiness, Lishella」

I tell her that and say her name

In that moment Lishella's expressionless in to flon her cheeks

H, hey, wait a minute, I didn't wanted to make her cry!

Overwheles to squeeze a feords out of her mouth

「I, I, for the first ti to another person can be I realized just how lonely eating a meal by yourself truly is I understood that I was alone, and that it will probably not change So could you really bla that ell beyond my reach?」

「No, not really But, did you wanted to be lonely?」

I ask that to Lishella, and she seeet some comrades here for ourselves People who care about you We ood to avoid the storht into it Someone has to be there」

「No way…… Not even my Father or Mother can be someone like that」

「Look, I want to help you, even if it's just a little bit So, let's try to get along」

I sh she couldn't believe the words I was saying

「Say, Lishella, would you like to be my friend?」

Lishella's face twitched, and her lips began to tre quietly

Her throat was sore, and soon her voice cracks and she covers her face and continues to cry soood that I used the soundproof spell on this room, just in case

It never occurred to me, but humans could cry really loud if they tried

It was painful to watch her in such state, but at least I was glad that she opened her heart before me

However, h to make her happy in this twisted aristocratic society

Thinking that, I contact with Ligurila

”You suddenly used the soundproof spell, did so But anyway, Ligurila, I need your help!”

Saying that, I briefly suurila

”That being said, please! Lend me your wisdom!”

”You truly are a fool, you know that?”
