The Arrogant Heroine Was Too Overbearing, So I Immediately Switched Sides to Become the Traitor-Chapter 23 - Only Wrong Names, No Wrong Nicknames
“Evan doesn’t dislike Aphrotenis, right?”
“No.”
Evan shook his head. Then he saw Aphrotenis smile sweetly—to be precise, he didn’t see it, but felt it... felt the girl in front of him smiling sweetly.
This feeling was very strange. He couldn’t see her face clearly, yet he could imagine an exquisite girl smiling sweetly and shyly in front of him.
Damn!!
Evan pursed his lips, gradually realizing that the Aphrotenis before him was truly “extraordinary.”
“Hey, Evan, do you still remember, when we were little, Aphrotenis loved eating hamburgers the most.”
Eating hamburgers?
Evan twitched the corner of his mouth, but with the girl’s words, a clear scene gradually emerged from his mind’s memories. That was, when he was little, every time he finished the day’s knight training and finished class with Alexia.
During meal times.
Aphrotenis, who sat next to the two of them, was always holding a hamburger and gnawing on it heartily.

“...”
“And also, even though Aphrotenis is a bit clumsy and doesn’t know what Evan and Miss Alexia are studying, she’s still very strong, Evan couldn’t even beat her!”
The memories in Evan’s mind changed again. A scene appeared of a small Aphrotenis, in front of him and Alexia, performing an over-the-shoulder throw on a little mountain-like grizzly bear.
“...”
It was hard to bear, truly too hard to bear.
“Sigh, but why didn’t Evan care about Aphrotenis before? Was it because Aphrotenis was more like a boy? Well, yes, Aphrotenis used to have short hair, like a tomboy...”
As the girl mumbled to herself.
Evan found that Aphrotenis’s appearance in his memories also suddenly changed.
She transformed from a cute and lovely, slender little loli with a messy brown-gray long curly hair wearing a thin white dress.
To.
A lively tomboy wearing a gray leather jacket, with short hair like a watermelon cut.
“...”
Evan was really about to lose it. Who changes their character setting halfway through!!!
But gradually, as Aphrotenis kept talking to herself, Evan also grasped the key point. That was.
The more the girl talked about things from before, the more related memories would appear or be adjusted in his mind, eventually becoming consistent with what Aphrotenis said.
It was simply too strange.
Evan couldn’t help but remember the night he woke up in the middle of the night and found Aphrotenis had snuck into his room. That night, he distinctly heard her say something before leaving.
[When Aphrotenis leaves, the room will be restored to its original state, and the door will also be locked...]
As a result.
After she left, he went to check the lock on the room door, and indeed found that the door was locked from the inside, and there were no signs that anyone had been in the room at all.
Combining this with Aphrotenis’s actions now. Evan realized.
The girl in front of him, being one of the ancient evil gods, her divine power, or rather authority, was probably not something like “hypnosis.”
But similar to “words become reality.”
Of course, theoretically, if used properly, it could indeed create effects similar to “hypnosis.”
In short, she truly could perform hypnosis, but hypnosis was just one manifestation of her divine power.
Terrifying!
Fortunately, although Aphrotenis was currently constantly fabricating so-called domestic drama for him, adding all sorts of character settings, etc.
But besides making him feel as if it really happened when he fell into memory.
There were no other effects.
Evan guessed. He estimated that Aphrotenis had likely lost all her followers now, and her strength was incredibly weak. Otherwise, what kind of deity would sneak into someone’s room in the middle of the night and still leave through the door?
Wouldn’t they just disappear from where they were with a “whoosh”?
So the current Aphrotenis was very weak, and even if she took action, she could only slightly influence others’ memories.
Or perhaps.
Aphrotenis’s divine power seemed astonishing, but in reality, there was some extremely strict limitation.
Hmm.
After all, he still didn’t know enough about the girl in front of him. Evan looked at the ancient evil god girl who was his deskmate, watching her in a cute pose, just lying on the desk, constantly muttering about things from before, adding plot points to their childhood friend relationship.
From how they met on the street, and how he used his first month’s salary to buy the matches she was selling.
Then to how they had a very good relationship, and she often shared her hamburgers with him.
Finally, she secretly followed him to the imperial capital of the United Empire, and also got into Seven Gods Academy, giving him a big surprise.
And then...
“Evan said when he was little that he would marry Aphrotenis in the future, is that true?”
“Fake.”
Evan replied immediately. Although a scene had already appeared in his mind of Aphrotenis, who was like a tomboy when they were little, tugging at his sleeve, saying something about wanting to be with him forever when they grew up.
Heh heh.
At this moment, Evan noticed another significant point. No matter how Aphrotenis fabricated the stories of him and her from childhood.
All the memories were about her proactively doing something with him, talking to him, giving him things, dragging him to do something, or simply appearing suddenly beside him.
But he had never proactively done anything with her, said anything to her, or given her anything.
Evan roughly understood the difference. The current Aphrotenis couldn’t force him to do anything, not even force him to have memories of having done or said something with her in the past.
In his memory, Aphrotenis seemed like an “outsider” who had inserted herself midway. Although she existed, she had never interacted with his past self.
So she could only keep trying to entice him. But even if he denied it, there was nothing she could do.
“Hmph!”
The girl was angry. In his consciousness, Aphrotenis’s exquisite face showed a cute pouting look.
And she finally stopped talking. Evan quickly shook his head, not looking at this girl anymore.
Phew.
Evan felt that, in a sense, his understanding of Aphrotenis, this ancient evil god, seemed to have deepened. Of course, this was far from enough.
The most important thing he needed to know was which evil god Aphrotenis was.
Ideally, he should know her title. After all, as the old saying goes, there are only wrong names, no wrong nicknames.
A deity’s title would certainly hint at some of their characteristics.
For example.
Let’s take Divine Emperor Jupiter, one of the seven orthodox gods currently worshiped by the United Empire, as an example again.
“Divine Emperor” represents that He holds an absolutely leading position among the seven orthodox gods, being the leader of the other six orthodox gods.
“Lord of the Sky” and “Incarnation of Thunder and Storm” respectively demonstrate His ability to embody the entire sky and summon thunder and storms.
Therefore.
As long as he knew Aphrotenis’s title as an evil god.
Then even just by guessing, it would be enough to further obtain a lot of information about her.
