In a very quiet room, a warehouse in the basement, Helena told Ernesto the facts about her.
"I am a demon from Eternal Hell."
"W-What do you mean by that? A-Are you kidding me?"
Ernesto was shocked to death to hear that
His lips trembled, frightened and confused. His face was almost pale, it even looked like he was about to pass out now. His eyes trembled like he didn't want to look in front of him. His legs looked like they were about to fall from there. He was so scared.
To prove that Helena was telling the truth, she made her eyes dark red and changed her human aura to that of a demon; very dark and intimidating.
Ernesto was even more surprised by that.
"T-Then last night… I didn't see it wrong?"
"Yeah, you didn't see it wrong, Master Ernesto. I have killed that man."
It was the answer Ernesto had been waiting for. But somehow the answer didn't feel good to him at all, it felt like he had discovered a secret that could threaten her.
"W-Why did you k-kill him? What is wrong with it?"
He tried to get up the courage to ask what he didn't know; which intrigued him.
"For Lord Arsenio's safety."
"For the safety of my twin brother? What do you mean?"
"Soon… or maybe tonight, there will be more people after his life, you, and your father. That man last night, including the one who wanted to kill you. All this I did so that Lord Arsenio would not be killed by them."
Ernesto was still confused, but he already suspected that someone wanted to kill him and his family. Even so, he was still frightened by Helena's aura and gaze directed at him. It made him unable to dare to argue that he had expected it.
"If I just stand still and let it be, Lord Arsenio's life will be in danger. So I killed him."
This is all for Arsenio. Even if they came here to kill Androcles and Ernesto, Helena would still say that this was all for Arsenio's safety.
"Who are you? Why are you doing this just for us?"
"I already said, I'm a demon from Eternal Hell, right?"
"Yeah, you said that. But, why are you doing this just for us?"
"Not for you or your father, but Lord Arsenio. I and we are doing this because…"
If you read the book "Demon Sage", you will find that Leonard has many followers, and just before God sealed him, his followers dispersed and their whereabouts were unknown. Helena, Jamila, Cherly, Alika, Franciska, Fran, and Evan are his most loyal followers. They were here because they followed the last words of their Lord, Leonard.
Before being sealed by God, Leonard opened his eyes to see his fate in the future. He did so using his power, to know what would happen to the demons exiled from Eternal Hell. And at that time, in front of thousands of followers, he said that when someone who was born into a noble family and had twin brothers, who had black hair and tended to have a childish personality but had a leadership spirit, his followers should make that human a priority and as their Lord.
Leonard said that out loud, making his followers have to agree to it even though they both hated humans so much. No one knew the purpose of Leonard's uttering that and why they should prioritize that human, but some of them agreed to that and didn't let their egos act.
Since then, they have been waiting for the appearance of that human. Some of them began to seek and mingle with the humans. Some of them disguised themselves as knights just to find that human. Some of them decide to explore all corners of this world to know exactly where that human being will be born and grow up.
Helena, Evan, Franciska, Cherly, and Alika who were living together in the Bengawan country received news from Fran and Jamila that humans would be born into the world from a noble family. They, except for Evan who was still busy with his mission which had to escort the king to another country and was not allowed to leave his position as a knight, decided to join and become a maid for the family.
Their decision to join forces and become maids was the right one. And at the time of the birth of Arsenio and Ernesto, when the sun became very hot, when the birds whistled as if they wanted to fly free, and when the monsters were silent in their habitat, they managed to find the human that Leonard was referring to.
They were happy, but on the one hand, they didn't expect that they would serve a human. The excitement they had been waiting for was dashed by a feeling of discomfort. But in the end, they mutually agree to serve a human and find a reason why they should serve that human.
As seven years passed, since they discovered that their current Lord was Arsenio, they received word from Evan who was still a knight for the king of this land at that time that the de Jansen family would be killed. Of course, they wouldn't let that happen. They had been waiting for this for a very long time. If something interrupts their waiting, they are not happy with it.
That's why they act quickly if a foreigner enters the castle without Androcles' permission. Killing without a second thought and finding out who ordered them, that's what they did to those who came here.
Helena revealed that to Ernesto as if she was deliberately letting Ernesto know.
"So you mean… my twin brother is…"
Ernesto did not expect that Arsenio, who was born with him and who came from a different world, was such a special human being. Even according to him, what he heard from the story told by Helena, had shown that Arsenio was the same as Leonard: their Lord.
"I am telling this because I know that you are the closest person to Lord Arsenio. So, by telling you this, I hope you don't cause him any trouble. When you hurt him, you know the consequences. I will kill you, Master Ernesto."
Helena's words gave Ernesto the chills. He didn't expect that he would be threatened and bullied by the beautiful woman in front of him who was his family's maid.
"Does Arsenio know about this?"
"He has absolutely no idea. I hope you don't let him know about this. Don't tell him about this. Until the time comes, we will tell him about this. I knew you would keep your mouth shut for your good as well as Lord Arsenio's."
"I understand. I won't tell him this. I promise. But, can you guarantee that you and your friends won't disturb my family?"
"I can guarantee that, as long as you don't disturb my Lord. If any of you injure him, I will kill you."
After saying that, Helena lowered her aura and turned her eyeballs back to their original state. Then, she turned and walked.
"I still have a business, so I hope you don't act like you hear my story. Act as usual, like you didn't hear anything. Let us take care of Lord Arsenio, you, your father, and maybe your mother. This is our job."
After Helena left him, Ernesto, who had been shivering ever since, finally managed to escape from it.
"Shit… she's so cold. What is this? It was the first time I'm afraid in front of a woman. I will not make her my woman. Fuck..."
