《Last Wish System 》Chapter 625: Necessary Evil
Advertisement
"You and your schemes, but why did you leave my documents there. if you were there to collect yours and Pavel's, you should have also collected mine."
The person who spoke was a woman in the same room as Lesta.
"Who cares about those documents, they don't have any value, and without some bait, that bastard wouldn't remain there long enough. be grateful that your trash found a use."
Lesta never measured his words when speaking with that woman. She was assigned to work under his orders, but Lesta disliked her since the moment she was introduced to him.
Moreover, she tried nonstop to seduce Lesta, but Lesta didn't even blink at her attempts.
She was only a Goddess, so she was longing for the benefits she could obtain from being with a True God, and the chance to work for Lesta was what she had been waiting, but no matter what she tried, Lesta ignored her or threatened to kill her if she disturbed him for another second.
"Even I have created some interesting things in the past..."
The woman was already depressed after being always looked down by Lesta, but she needed to admit that she was far inferior to him, so she could only endure it.
"Are you speaking about that Eraser Bomb that had its existence banned in virtually all universes? That is the only reason you are allowed by the rebels to work with me, although I find you more an annoyance than something else. Everything you make is useless."
That woman was the same that had been supporting the Sacred Empire back then.
"I can be useful. Let me meet the little Devy. I am sure that she also needs the presence of a woman, maybe I can make her believe that I am her mother."
That wasn't the first time that she insisted on meeting Devy, but Lesta always refused.
"As I told you countless times in the past. Meeting someone like you would corrupt her."
When she heard the same answer as always, the woman couldn't help but mutter.
"It isn't like if you are a saint."
It was just a mutter, but Lesta could hear it perfectly.
"I know that I am not a saint; I am evil. I am perfectly conscious of that, but in my case, I am a necessary evil, so don't put me in the same group as you."

Among the rebels, most don't consider them to be evil since they believed that they battled for being free from the oppression of the Council of Gods.
Others were just doing it for their personal reasons and didn't care about good and evil.
Although most people felt that Lesta belonged to that group, he was one of the few that didn't care about admitting openly that he was evil.
"Same reasons as always. I have yet to hear why you are a necessary evil while I am not."
Lesta smiled, but his next words weren't an answer.
"Now that I think about it, I have something in which you can help me, and it is related to Devy, but it will be harsh. Do you want to help or not?"
Seeing how Lesta changes the topic, the woman felt that Lesta was without arguments, so he was forced to concede a bit.
"I want."
She could have dragged the matter more, but she didn't dare to test her luck, so she agreed quickly.
"Perfect! You will be the first who Devy resurrects."
An instant later, the woman had been killed by Lesta.
"Oh, what a mistake. People who die in this universe can't be resurrected."
Lesta had a wide smile that didn't fit with his words. There was no way he could make such a mistake. He planned to kill that woman from before.
"You finally killed her. It was difficult enduring that woman's presence, especially when she was flirting with you and asking to act like my mother. As if she were qualified for that. Right, father?"
A beautiful woman appeared. She was the supposed adopted daughter of Lesta, Devy.
What others didn't know was that she wasn't adopted; she was really Lesta's daughter, and she wasn't born in that universe like Lesta said. Moreover, she wasn't a weakling who barely managed to learn the Minor Resurrection Divinity and couldn't harm others due to her personality. She was a True Goddess, and she wasn't harmless like Lesta said.
"That woman had too many wicked ideas. Having her near me was better than let her gave her ideas to others. That woman was trash, but her talent to develop absurd things was really outstanding. However, we don't need that kind of variable for our plans."
The ideas of that woman weren't useless at all. It was just that Lesta found loopholes to let her think that all were failures, but Lesta could easily fill those gaps and make those things useful. However, he never planned to do it.

"I know that but having to wait until today for her death has been so tiring. That Brainwashing God is also dead. Someone with such a Divinity shouldn't exist."
Devy was earnest with her answer. It wasn't a lie that she was a good girl that despised evil.
"Correct. To think that some people believe that I learned that thing. No way I would fall that low. I am good enough dealing with souls to erase a small brainwashing trick. Seriously, it isn't something that difficult to break, that Divinity isn't that strong."
Devy was never brainwashed by Lesta, and Lesta never obtained anything related to the Brainwashing Divinity. Those were just things others thought due to the lies Lesta spread and the misunderstandings he provoked.
"Are we leaving this place?"
Devy knew about the plans. Once the two main targets had been purged, they would abandon the hidden dimension.
"Yes. We have no reason to battle the other intruders. I lowered the security to let them notice the hidden dimension, so it is more like they are our guests rather than intruders."
If Lesta didn't want the hidden dimension to be discovered, it wouldn't. Everything had been according to the setting he planned.
After speaking, Lesta opened a dimensional passageway with the flip of his hand.
"If some of those at the party saw you do this, they would be shocked. They already consider that you are the best researcher by how many divinities you analyzed and the fact you attempted to make me learn the Minor Resurrection Divinity. I want to know what face they would make if they noticed I have the True Resurrection Divinity and you the True Dimensional Divinity."
Devy didn't like the rebels at all.
"It is better if you don't say that on loud, although no one can hear you here. Anyway, I am letting those coming here notice that the Minor Dimensional Divinity has been used, and I plan to tell it to the rebels too. Thus, the Council of Gods can be on guard, but not too much, while the rebels can include the Minor Dimensional Divinity on the plans. The war must be balanced, or it would be useless. When both parties are of similar strength is when the wars create the most casualties. This war must happen, a lot of people must die. Only those who obtain the True Dimensional Divinity can understand the meaning of this properly."
Lesta and Devy jumped into the passageway, and several minutes later, Shiba's group reached the room. Of course, the whole hidden dimension was altered to make them reach that place naturally since Lesta wanted them to see the remains of the passageway.
"Whoever was here, has already left. Moreover, I can notice the remains of the Minor Dimensional Divinity. Probably, someone among the rebels got it, and since Pavel isn't here, the only related person to this hidden dimension I can think is Lesta, but why did he leave if he was here, I doubt he was scared of us. Maybe it was just a coincidence, and he was about to leave, so he ignored us."
Shiba couldn't believe it, but it was mostly the only thing he could think at that moment. The fact that Lesta didn't have the slightest intention to kill them didn't even pass by his mind.
At that moment, the hidden dimension started to crumble, and a second later, they were all beside Yale and the others. They were pulled out of the universe, not just the hidden dimension.
That was because what crumbled wasn't the hidden dimension, but the whole universe. Lesta had destroyed it after leaving.
All the important members of the rebels were on Pavel's party, and those not important enough tried to go even if they couldn't enter, so those remaining were all members that weren't on good terms with Pavel and Lesta.
Destroying the universe also erased all traces of the experiments.
"Father, are you sure that all the innocent people had also left?"
Devy couldn't approve destroying universe filled with innocent people, but a universe that served to experiment with mortals was something that she could think that deserved to disappear.
"Yes, only those that needed to die, died. Don't worry."
As for if those words were true or not, only Lesta knew, but Devy believed him anyway. It wasn't any kind of brainwashing; it was just that she always trusted her father a lot.
She also knew that her father needed to do some bad things for more important reasons, so she decided to remain at his side.

Empress' Evolution
The bright red light of the flames swallowed her vision but soon that red light transformed into a blue hue and she was dragged into that light. ‘What’s happening?’ It was too bright and she was forced to close her eyes, she was blinded — even though she was already dead. After being pulled into the light she began to feel annoyed as her skin was irritated by some kind of rough sand. By the time she opened her eyes. She could see the full view of the sky. It was blue and there were clouds scattered about. ‘Ugh, is this Hell?’ She stated as she rubbed her head with her fluffy and furry ‘hand’. ‘Furry?’ She looked at her ‘hands’ and her mouth opened wide. Her hands had become soft and fluffy paws of a white-furred beast with purple spots. ‘What the hell?’ She touched her face with her paws and confirmed that it too did not belong to a human. Below, she felt something was moving, she can tell as if it was another limb connected to her. ‘Don’t tell me!’ Turning her head around, she found a seven-inch tail sticking out behind. ‘Phew!’ She felt relieved that it wasn’t what she thought it was. “These soft and paws, this cuddly fluffy hair, this cute tail — ah shit, did I become a beast after my death or have I been dreaming of being human as a beast all this time? If it is the latter that is one long and realistic dream.” === [It’s the former, stupid *] === Said a woman’s voice from in her head. === As always thank you for reading, also the image in the cover is not mine, I found it on Pinterest and thought it was cool and suitable. All credits got to the illustrator. Also, this is a new type of story that I have not read about yet. Basically I am writing an evolution novel without prior knowledge so I don't really know what is considered cliche in this genre.
