Chapter 1122 Grand Humanoid Evil Tree (1/2)

”Mister Ricky, how much do you know about human devils?” Queenie asked as a smile tempered the steel in her voice. She hadn't fully let her guard down, but after Ricky calmed himself down, she also stopped acting as threatening as before.

”I heard that there are living creatures called human devils in this world. That's all I know,” answered Ricky. A resentful sneer dimmed the smile on Queenie's face when she heard his answer.

”You are right. We, human devils, are all low-level creatures to both creatures born on the continent and creatures of devil race. A genius like you, Mister Ricky, will never be interested in knowing that,” she remarked indignantly.

However, despite the resentment that her words held, Ricky could tell that she felt helpless and indignant toward the situation as well.

'I guess the situation of human devils is not as good as I previously thought, ' reflected Ricky. Although honestly, he never gave much thought to human devils at all. But after hearing what Queenie said, he now understood why she felt that way. Unfortunately, he didn't have time to dwell on other people's problems, as he also had issues of his own.

At that moment, he still had a lot of problems that he needed to solve.

”I don't know about other people, but I never look down upon anyone or any race,” Ricky told Queenie sincerely. ”Even if they are my enemies, I will not judge them based on their bloodline and background. If I consider them my enemies, then it is because of their actions and not for anything else,” he continued.

”I see that you are quite open-minded, Mister Ricky,” responded Queenie, as one of her eyebrows lifted in disbelief. She had a hard time believing him, as life had taught her the opposite.

Since she was a child, she had learned never to believe anyone else except human devils. Otherwise, she would get hurt.

”We, human devils, have been trying our best to survive in this world over the past years. We have to deal with all the creatures born on the continent and creatures of devil race, and that is not an easy thing to do. I am sure you know that,” stated Queenie.

She paused for a short while, reminiscing the hardships that she had faced in the past. And as Ricky looked at her in the eyes, he too could sense the difficulties she had suffered.

”Judging from your situation, I can only guess how hard it must have been, but I'm sure it is a hundred times harder than I can imagine,” Ricky responded somberly, as he was aware of the delicacy of their topic, and he didn't want to say something insensitive.

”To be honest, we are truly grateful to all the creatures born on the continent, for many of you are just and kind. Their kind hearts are the reason that human devils have survived there until this day,” added Queenie.

Then, she paused and studied Ricky. She had to take the time and breathe, for her words, at that moment, weighed heavily on her soul.
