Chapter 242: 241 ‘Magic Life
People can’t be compared with one another.
Once, in a state of extreme anger, Shane took five minutes to roll over in bed, aiming to grab a bottle of water on the bedside table.
Yet, a lady’s maid tackled the task of tidying up a Great Noble’s luxurious mansion as if it were nothing, turning it into a paradise akin to where birds chirp and flowers bloom—in just an hour.
The disparity was simply unbearable to witness.
…perhaps, should I also call her “Big Sister”?
Shane began to seriously consider this question.
Forget it, better not to bring up this topic again.
Otherwise, Shane felt he might get disturbed once more.
So, Shane shifted the topic.
“Speaking of which, why are you serving as Laischa’s maid?”
Shane asked the question that had long been on his mind.
“Why?”
Lasha seemed slightly perplexed, not quite understanding Shane’s point.
Seeing this, Shane elaborated.
“You see, you and Laischa look exactly alike,” Shane pointed out, “I always thought you were twin sisters, but if that were the case, it wouldn’t make sense for one to be the Lady and the other a Maid, right?”
Lasha then understood Shane’s intention and fell into a brief silence.
After a moment, Lasha suddenly spoke up.
“Does Mr. Xi’en know about Magic Life?”
Lasha posed such a question.
“I know.”
Although Shane was a bit puzzled, he still nodded in acknowledgment.

“The so-called Magic Life refers to lower life forms created through magic, right?”
Like the Golem Shane had encountered in the past, which was merely a rock mixed with special Magic Minerals but, due to its proximity to a Magic Power Source, became influenced by the flowing Magic Power. Eventually, it transformed into a Demon, possessing Life. Some mages would deliberately employ magic to complete this process and action, using magic to create Demons like Golems, and driving them for battles or work.
Life created this way using magic is called Magic Life.
“But Magic Life doesn’t just refer to Demons created by magic alone,” Lasha said indifferently, “Just like the Golem and other Demons, the Demon Clan is actually a race born under the influence of the Demon King’s Magic Power. They share a similar nature to Demons born from a Magic Power Source—existing as beings naturally birthed through the meddling of Magic Power. The Demon Clan has also used this principle to create Demons.”
In other words, Demons were inherently similar to Magic Life. The reason the Demon Clan wasn’t considered Magic Life was simply that they were not artificially created but were born naturally, just like the Elves.
So, here comes the question.
“Just as Demons like Golems can be artificially created through magic, since the Demon Clan is of a similar nature, they too, can be created using magic, can’t they?”
With these words, Shane understood what she was trying to say.
“Could it be that you are…?”
Shane looked in astonishment towards Lasha.
“Yes,” Lasha responded with unparalleled calm, “I am a Magic Life created by magic by Lady Laischa.”
So, Lasha and Laischa looked exactly alike, but they were not sisters; rather, they were master and servant.
Because Lasha was a Magic Life created by Laischa.
“Lady Laischa created me in her own image after the assassination attempt ten years ago. Her original intent was to create someone who could assist her in fighting the pursuers from the Old Demon Clan Faction during her escape. But Magic Lives have one characteristic: depending on the materials used for their Creation, the Life forms that are ultimately born may not necessarily possess combat abilities.”
Using Golems as an example, some are merely rocks mixed with special Magic Minerals that, under the influence of a Magic Power Source, metamorphose into Demons with generally low Levels.
However, some Golems are made of rare and precious Magic Minerals themselves, without any impurities, forming very advanced minerals, and thus the Golems born from these will have correspondingly high levels and their power will be tremendously frightening.
There once was a Level 80 Giant Golem that came into being from a vein of metal second only to Divine Steel, which, over thousands of years and affected by a large Magic Power Source underground, turned into a Demon.
At the time, to subdue such a gigantic Golem, a nation dispatched a Knight Order of thousands for a non-stop siege that lasted a day and a night before they brought it down.
The same applies to Golems created by Mages: depending on the materials forming the body, the Level and power of the resulting Golems will vary.
The same principle applies to other Magic Lives.
Lasha, naturally, is also included.
“I don’t know what kind of materials Lady Laischa used, but when I was created, not only was my Level very low, but my combat power was almost negligible, practically useless.”
Lasha spoke these words with an indifferent tone.
“Fortunately, I am rather adept at handling mundane tasks. So, Lady Laischa never considered disposing of me. Even a Magic Life like me, who is only capable of dealing with chores, logically should have hindered Lady Laischa’s escape, making it more arduous and difficult. Yet Lady Laischa never once proposed to get rid of me; she even claimed she had never entertained the thought.”
Upon hearing this, Shane became somewhat silent.
He really had not expected that Laischa and Lasha looked so much alike for such a reason.
Initially, he had thought that Laischa and Lasha might truly be sisters, and because Lasha lacked a talent for battle and Laischa could become an exceptional Space Mage, Beddo targeted Laischa and threatened her with Lasha’s safety. That’s why Laischa joined the Old Demon Clan Faction and became Beddo’s pawn, driven until the assassination ten years ago, when Laischa found an opportunity. She rescued Lasha and fled amidst the Faction’s assault on the Royal Capital.
Now it seemed that Laischa’s joining the Old Demon Clan Faction had nothing to do with Lasha.
After all, Lasha was created after Laischa began her escape.
Thus, when Laischa joined the Old Demon Clan Faction, Lasha had not yet been born.
But now the question arose again.
“If that’s the case, then why did that guy join the Old Demon Clan Faction?”
Shane fell into deep thought.
Judging by Laischa’s behavior, she seemed rather reluctant to affiliate with the Old Demon Clan Faction, even disdaining the idea of mingling with them.
Yet she chose to join the Old Demon Clan Faction and, together with Beddo and Killian, became the mastermind behind the assassination ten years ago, eventually betraying the actions of Beddo and the others from the Old Demon Clan Faction, sneaking into the underground chambers of the Royal Palace on her own to steal something of great importance and danger.
What were the considerations behind this series of actions?
Shane suddenly felt that this woman was shrouded in mysteries.
