[Are you finally done using my name to lie?]
Simon's expression became strange for the briefest moment.
His brows almost moved, but he returned his face to its usual calmness before Sonya or Akaza noticed anything.
He did not answer though, and a dark, amused chuckle echoed from somewhere deep within his Demon Heart which only he could hear.
[You used me as an excuse when they asked how you became so powerful. You turned me into some generous ancient saviour who changed your strength, your fate, and perhaps your entire miserable destiny.]
Lilith chuckled again.
[How touching. It is the audacity that interests me most. The audacity to use me to lie to your precious little friends.]
Simon kept his eyes on Sonya and Akaza while responding silently.
[I did not use your name. I only told them that the ancient being living inside me was responsible.]
Lilith gave no answer.
Instead, a faint coldness spread through Simon's heart.
