The Unrecorded Extra

Chapter 144 Two Words Demon

"Zio Varrez."

His attention was taken away by the sweet and alluring voice coming behind him. Turning around, Zio found a girl whose beauty was otherworldly emerge from the darkness of the groves.

Activating his Clairvoyance, Zio was able to get the girl's identity. But, it was at that moment that he was left shocked.

'They're finally getting bold. Those demons,' he said inwardly.

The girl was a demon. Her origin name was Berthrith Innor, while her human name was Lyra Naki. The demon had overall <E+> physical stats, Magic in <C>, Charisma in <A>, and luck in <C>. Meanwhile, her hidden stats were <C>. <B>, <A>, <D> (Order: Perception, Mental, Potential, and Health).

'For a demon who has two words in her name, her stats are quite low. But eh, I shouldn't have compared them with humans though. Even if it is written as <E+>, the actual strength could be on <D-> or <D>.'

'But this is Clairvoyance we're talking about. Just like what the Odyssey told me, Clairvoyance has a perfectly accurate appraisal ability. It can't be intercepted by any means, and no one can detect it when they are being the target except for those who I allowed.'

'This explained why Shannon could tell whether I was using it or not earlier in the day, and Ember, whose attention immediately turned to me back in the tower before the flash dungeon. I, or precisely Zio Varrez must have been allowed those two so they can tell whether I'm using appraisal on them or not.'

Noticing the demon standing before him, he shook the thoughts from his mind and turned his attention to her.

'Anyway, let's see what this demon wants with me.'

Before he struck up a conversation with her, Zio tapped his soul inwardly, calling for Reina to protect him with her energy in case she sensed something ominous invading his mind.

Knowing the [Unstable] curse, he couldn't be more cautious and decided to take an early measure if things went south later on.

"Hello! You are Zio Varrez, right?"

Lyra tilted her head sideways, acting cute and sweet in the hope it could somehow attract her target's attention. In her mind, every human male was weak in this kind of cute girl act things.

'They all are nothing but a horny pig. It's so easy doing this. On top of that, I don't need to use my charm magic.'

Too bad her opponent was Zio Varrez.

Zio cringed as soon as he noticed the demon intentionally trying to act cute. He could read her body language like an open book.

'This demon thinks she's an anime girl.'

Putting the cringe aside, he admitted his identity as Zio Varrez.

"Yes, I am. Who are you?"

Her face lit brightly. "I am Lyra Naki! Nice to meet you!"

She clasped her hands tightly on her chest — a small one. Her eyes were as round as a tennis ball.

Her scleras flashed into a dark color, her blue irises flashed into a red color, and her circular pupils turned vertical slit like a cat or snake for a split second before all of them returned to normal.

'Is she a greenhorn or something? Even Julron who only had one word in his name was better at hiding his excitement than her.'

Sighing, Zio asked. "So, Lyra. Is there something you want to talk to me? Also, how do you know I'm here? You didn't stalk me, did you? It would be a shame for a cute girl like you to do that kind of thing."

"C-cute?! Me?!"

The demon deliberately yelled in surprise, but Zio could easily read her like an open book that she was acting.

'Great! He's already fallen to my charm!' she thought.

Meanwhile, Zio had a different thought about this.

'It feels like I'm the demon, tricking this greenhorn…'

Putting up a fake smile as naturally as possible, Zio confirmed the fake statement.

"Is there another girl around here?"

This time, it was the demon who had fallen to his charm. Her face flushed red, cupping her cheeks with both hands shyly.

'Oh my Demon! Is it this easy to charm this handsome human? I guess it's just my beauty that is unbearable for them!' she thought.

Oh… How the table has turned…

"So, what brings you here to me tonight, Lyra?"

"Oh, I… I coincidentally saw you headed into the groves. Curious. I followed you here."

"You stalked me then?"

"N-no! I was just following you!"

Zio chuckled. "Fine. You were following me. Anyway, why don't you take a sit first?"

As she slid down next to him, their casual talk continued.

After some small cliche talk, she told him the actual reason why she was seeking him was because of the upcoming event of her club. The Tea Ceremony Club's Tea Party Event, which would be held in London next month.

It was at that moment Zio learned, or rather, remembered who Lyra Naki was.

According to his memory of the , Lyra Naki was a demon who caused the mess at the Tea Party Event along with the Zoneless Villains.

In the , she made an appearance as a demon at that party while the event was plunged into chaos by the Villain's interruption, making her gain a bestowal of the origin name — evolved from two words name to three words.

Later in the story, she was defeated by Lux and became his companion. But, only a fool recruited a demon to their team.

When the demon army invaded Earth through the countless portal in the skies, Lux was betrayed by two of his demon companions.

The three words demon, Berthrith Innor Ol'ga. And five words demon, Dorgras Algranol Alron Mogmon Sath.

'That's what happened in the … But, since Aster Ustrina is dead in this world, and I don't catch much villain activity around the world, there is a little chance the Tea Party Event would occur.'

He glanced at Lyra for a moment.

'It could be instigated by her and the demonic humans instead, though.'
