Chapter- 25

[ Grayfia POV ]

What kind of stupid question did I just ask?... He belongs to an ancient race, he should powerful from the beginning

still, I couldn't help but wonder did he ever feel powerless. he ever feels helpless? did he ever feel hopeless? Did he ever feel that he is not powerful enough? 

"No," He said as he stand up back on his feet… after healing me. 

Really??? My eyes open wide open as he stared directly towards at his face to find any signs of a lie

Even though I know he never told a lie to me till now but now I couldn't help but think he just saying this to comfort me

I took a good look at his face to find any signs of lying but couldn't able to found any like that instead he has a look on his face like he has Nostalgic look on his face

"Seriously?" I asked this since I want to confirm whether what he said is true Or not if he is not joking then I really wanna know his story 

He nodded his head as he spoke "I was a normal human being before"

What!? My eyes become wide open at his words, I don't believe what he just said but didn't the system say monarchs are some ancient race before did the system lied to me?

Or did he Reincarnate into a monarch using a similar method we use to reincarnate other beings into devils

Even so, is he the same human as my world Or are there also humans in other worlds

During these months system has changed my whole perspective of everything he did tell me there are many worlds, galaxies and universes out there

And many of them have life forces like us there are also living beings that are similar to my world as well as living beings that are different from my world so I also got to know there are also humans on other worlds

I guess he must from a different world human are his world humans are strong or he is only exceptional did they also have something similar to scared gear? Or do they have some other powers? I have countless questions but I can't ask them

But for sure after this, I am going to have a very good talk with the system

But one mystery is solved about his affection towards humans

"*gulp* Can you tell me how you become strong," I asked this with hesitation this is the question I can't able to help but asked since to my knowledge humans are the weakest race in my world unless of this. Is not valid in another world

"When I was young I only got three things that help me to become stronger circumstances, stubbornness and luck," He said as he looked down at my eyes

What does supposed to mean?... Circumstances? stubbornness? and luck?.... Does that mean I lack any of those things

Circumstances I think I have enough necessary reasons to become strong

"What do you mean by Stubbornness?" I asked this since I don't proper meaning for this maybe he means courage by this does that mean I don't dare to face challenges or he means something else I don't know

"When you got to know you lost against Beru, why were you so calm about it?" He asked this in a serious tone as his eyes started to glow purple.

Why? What do you mean why?... Of course, I already know that I can't beat that 'thing' at all "because I already predicted this result"

"wrong," He said as his eyes started to glow more violently. 

"W-What do you mean???" I asked this with a little shuttering since I felt a little scared by his eyes Luckily I was able to muster the courage to speak

"Let me ask you this how can you win if you already admitted your defeat in your mind?" He said this as he started to walk away towards the exit

"How can I win? If I already admit my defeat in my mind" I muttered his words as I watched his leaving back

His words keep resonating in my mind again and again the more sense it becomes if this is a real fight then I will probably be dead with that mentality

I don't fight to win but rather always fight to survive or compromise even back in the underworld I always try to protect my family first from enemies rather than defeating the enemies first

Out of all those three things he mentioned I only lack stubbornness as for luck if I don't have luck then how would I be able to be selected by the system for the task and able to come here

I stand up with difficulty, my legs are shaking…but still, I somehow dragged myself to my room

"System, why you didn't tell me about Jin was a human before" I complained to the system as I throw myself on the bed since I need to rest first to recover my energy first

[ Because you didn't have to know the shadow monarch's past as well as it will make him raise suspicious of you if you know about him somehow and as a result, it will make your task much more difficult than now ]

'Unnecessary??? Are you serious system at least you should have told me some information regarding him otherwise I will have had no clue, how to increase his Favorability for me more easily' I inwardly said this, since if I know this matter beforehand then maybe I should have avoided that minus favorability at that time

[it's better to be natural as possible as well as… and don't you feel ashamed invading someone else Privacy without their permission ]

'What!? Now you telling me about shame!?! Don't you feel any shame in kidnapping me from home without telling me about anything regarding this task!?

Don't you feel any shame giving me that shameful maid attire at that time!?' I couldn't help but be outraged at the system that is talking about shame. when the system doesn't itself don't have any shame
