The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death Chapter 250

“Kamia Bifrons…” Alice frowned when she saw the basic information displayed on the pink-haired girl's identification card. “Why do I feel like I've seen this name before…”

“That's normal. Humans and demons would often have similar surnames for various reasons. It also isn't rare to see people with the same name. You might have met someone with a similar name as this girl in the past,” Andusia said, sitting on Kamia's shoulder while instructing the trembling demoness to operate her phone and shamelessly inspecting the girl's privacy.

Alice glanced at Andusia but chose not to respond. Andusia did not know that Alice had only been living in this world for several months, so the number of people she had met here was by no means many.

Of course, Alice also acknowledged that Andusia might be right, and one of the students she met in the March Academy might have a similar name as Kamia. Hence, she had felt a sense of familiarity from seeing the name.

“Alice, what does 'Live Stream' mean?” Andusia asked, her attention caught by something interesting in Kamia's phone. “Quite a few things in this girl's phone are related to this 'Live Stream' thing.”

“It means that she is publishing the photographs she takes to the internet in real-time for others to see and interact… That is to say, if not for the lack of mana in the area, the photograph she took of us might have been shared on the internet. She could have even broadcast our conversation live,” Alice explained as she glanced at the panicking Kamia. Although she still had her hood on, she did not bother disguising her voice. After all, Kamia had already heard Andusia calling her 'Alice.' There was no need to continue hiding her voice.

After grabbing a nearby metal stool, Alice sat in front of Kamia and looked at the demoness kneeling on the ground. Then, while doing her best to sound indifferent, Alice asked, “How much did you hear? Don't try to lie. We can tell through your expressions.”

This was naturally a lie. Alice had no idea how to read expressions whatsoever. At most, she could tell that a person was happy when they were smiling and sad when crying. However, that did not hinder her from tricking Kamia.

Unfortunately, the situation was as Alice feared. Kamia had overheard her entire conversation with Andusia. The girl had even heard them talking about past Demon Kings and the Demon King's Power in a seemingly belittling manner. As a result, their image in Kamia's heart was elevated infinitely.

Adding on to the demons' nature of obeying the strong, Kamia answered Alice truthfully despite the feeling perplexed over the situation:

“F-From when you first started speaking…”

This truly is the worst…

Alice felt her head hurting a little when she heard Kamia's answer. If Kamia had truly overheard everything she had talked about with Andusia, the demoness could most likely guess their identities.

“In that case, you should know who we are now, right?”

Alice decided to verify her thoughts directly. In any case, Kamia was unlikely to have the courage to lie to her right now. Although she couldn't actually read Kamia's thoughts through the girl's expressions, she could tell that Kamia was very scared, judging by the girl's trembling body.

“I-I think so…” Kamia stuttered nervously. Then, she looked toward the figurine sitting on her shoulder and continued, “This p-person here is the Ninth Demon King Andusia, right?”

“That's right! I am Andusia! A Demon King who brings despair to humans!” Andusia said, nodding in satisfaction. Kamia's reaction should be the normal reaction a person should have when meeting a Demon King. Alice's response of hurling a taboo in her face was simply wrong.

“Don't interrupt.”

Alice sent Andusia a warning glance, causing Andusia to shut up immediately. It couldn't be helped. The Forest Crystal's mana was still in her body. Alice could turn her into a powerless figurine with just a thought. So, she couldn't afford to go against Alice right now.

“As for y-you… Could you be the newest Demon King, right?” Kamia asked in an uncertain tone as she turned to Alice. “But your name is Alice… It's the same name as the humans' Gryffin Princess.”

“Hmph. I see I still got discovered.”

Alice frowned. She had originally hoped that Kamia might not be up to date on the human realm's matters and wouldn't notice what the name of “Alice” represented. Unfortunately, it would seem that the other party was aware that “Alice” was the Gryffin Kingdom's princess.

Although Kamia still wasn't certain if “new Demon King = human kingdom's princess,” just the fact that she was harboring such a guess meant that there existed a risk for Alice's identity to get exposed.

“It seems you are quite the perceptive fellow, aren't you?” Alice jokingly said as she removed her hood, revealing her blonde twintails and pristine appearance that rivaled elves. Both of these features were exactly the same as the image of the human princess in Kamia's mind.

However, Kamia did not feel joyful when she saw Alice removing her hood. Instead, her face instantly paled. This was because she knew that Alice's action wasn't a gesture of friendliness and sincerity. Instead, it was most likely because Alice was prepared to “silence the witness.”

After all, they weren't familiar with each other, and the best way to prevent someone from revealing a secret was to kill them. Meanwhile, Alice naturally didn't need to hide her secret from someone who was about to die.

“Oh? Are you taking action?” Andusia grew excited when she saw Alice's action. She might behave obediently in front of Alice, but she was still a Demon King. The blood of countless lives stained her hands, so she wasn't against silencing people with death in the slightest. “What do you have in mind? How about letting me handle the girl? I can even extract her soul out of her body.”

“Can you not be so violent?” Alice clicked her tongue when she heard Andusia's suggestion. Then, she reached out to Kamia with both hands and pressed the trembling demoness's temples, saying, “Stay still. It'll be over before you know it.”
