NOVPUBIn a higher-dimensional space.
Loren occasionally glanced at the Ice Witch.
Until he noticed Hyperion unmasking, he almost didn’t hold his coffee steady.
Why is it Hyperion?
Loren was horrified.
As is well known, there are two people that appear in pairs at Ichrite Academy.
Where Hyperion is, that means there will be another shadow-like abnormal creature.
And at this moment, there happens to be a dark-haired and green-eyed fellow next to Hyperion.
No no no.
That dark-haired and green-eyed girl is definitely not disguised by Lanci, even the height is different!
Cold sweat burst out from Loren’s forehead, his palms trembling.
The more he saw those three priests of Hegemony, the more Loren remembered the accident on the day of the Academic Visitation Team of the Yaloran Kingdom from the last semester, having almost surfaced his psychological shadow!
Five demonized fighters, looking in a similar state!
On the other side, the Paladin noticed Hyperion’s appearance.
"Isn’t that the daughter of Duke Migaya? She should be a student at Ichrite Academy."
The Paladin muttered to himself, also looking at the opposite side— Loren who had lowered his head and stopped looking at anyone.
But the Ice Witch was very kind and did not put pressure on Loren at this time.
If Hyperion betrays them, the responsibility lies with her, it has nothing to do with Loren, after all, it was not Loren’s students who forced Hyperion to betray.
...
Herram Prison, the special cell of Great Demon Antanas.
Upon hearing Hyperion say "she is Talia’s niece", the Great Love Poet was directly stunned.
What do you mean you are Talia’s niece?
So my teacher is my classmate’s aunt?
In an instant...Lanci understood a lot.
Like why that indifferent old woman Talia would briefly agree when accepting his brief about Hyperion.
Including later, Talia and Hyperion spent some time together, and their relationship became so good, and even Lanci was treated a little better, which led Lanci to misjudge that Talia’s personality had softened a little.
After analyzing it again, Lanci found that the three of them seemed to know something and didn’t know something.
Talia seemed to have figured out early on that Hyperion was her niece, but didn’t know that Lanci knew about her Princess of the Demon Clan identity.
Hyperion went to Aestheland Kingdom and found out that Talia was her aunt, but didn’t know Lanci and her aunt. She also didn’t know that Tata who had been taking care of her was Talia.
And Lanci only now knew about Talia and Hyperion’s familial relationship, he had previously thought Talia just saw the property of Hyperion’s duke’s family, and because she was single for a long time, she wanted to become a mother.
At this moment he was the first of the three to figure it all out!
On the other side of the special cell room.
Great Demon Guardian Antanas was looking at Hyperion after hearing her words.
Only after a long time had passed.
"So, you’re Isatia’s child."
Antanas sighed.
Although Hyperion’s temperament is completely different from Talia’s, she indeed has some similarities with Isatia. Antanas can feel that royal demon’s breath from Hyperion.
What surprised Antanas was, he hadn’t thought that Isatia would marry a human.
It’s hard to imagine what kind of outstanding human could win the favor of the genius princess of the Demon Race.
Even compared with Talia and Isatia, can only be described as the princess of the Demon Clan, lacking the word "genius".
The reason why both princesses were roughly equally powerful as the eighth-order great demon race a hundred years ago was because Talia was much older than Isatia.
One would have thought that Talia, her older sister, would marry before Isatia.
"Did Isatia send you to look for me?"
Antanas raised her eyes and asked Hyperion.
She didn’t know what the exterior of Herram Prison, deep underground, had changed into over the past hundred years. All her information about the world above came from the Protoss Empire. She couldn’t tell what was true and what was false.
"No, it was my teacher, the Bingxue Witch Almis, who requested your help for the Aestheland Kingdom. We will set you free and then find Talia’s whereabouts for you."
Hyperion answered sincerely.
The Bingxue Witch knew very well what Antanas wanted; this was also a fair deal among the demons.
"Almis of Ice and Snow, huh?"
Antanas mumbled to herself. Her look gradually dimmed, "I am inclined to believe Almis, but since she didn’t have Talia, or even Isatia look for me, instead she sent you into this dangerous place, it seems as if there’s really no trace of Talia left, isn’t it?"
Antanas asked.
"Yes, but according to Teacher Almis’s guess, it’s very likely that Talia has gone to the South Continent. Once the turmoil in the Northern Continent ends, she will definitely fulfill her promise, using the full force of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny to help you find Talia. We will also provide you a shelter, and we will never harm you."
Hyperion promised Antanas.
"...The Protoss Empire told me that Talia is dead, they even showed me Talia’s dead relics."
Antanas said, sounding downcast.
She was initially skeptical about this information, but upon hearing what Hyperion brought about the situation outside, she gradually felt the hope of Talia being alive dwindling a little bit.
"Perhaps the Protoss Empire is deceiving you, no matter what, both my teacher and I have made a vow to the Lady Goddess of Destiny. We will do our best to help you find her, no matter how long it takes."
Hyperion stated. She didn’t dare to make absolute promises, as interactions among the demon race, held in the highest regard, could not involve lies, or else they would face backlash from the bloodline.
Antanas looked at Hyperion, surprisingly showing her, inherent of a great demon, a weakness she shouldn’t have.
"She is the most noble Princess of the Demon Race. If she is still alive, how come Almis hasn’t been able to find any trace of her over these many years..."
She has been imprisoned in Herram Prison. Over the past century, she had been tormented by exchanged between the Fallen Wonderland and the real-world prison, enduring the influence of words from successive jailers.
Putting all her hopes on remote possibilities, was indeed exhausting.
Perhaps now she would rather hide in this cell that contained her last sliver of hope, than one day genuinely hearing of Talia’s death.
"I’m tired of fighting. I’m afraid I cannot accept the goodwill of Almis."
Antanas averted her gaze and said to Hyperion in a low voice.
"Miss Antanas, you should..."
Hyperion felt that Antanas might need some psychological counseling at this time, and this should’ve been Lanci’s strength, so she looked to Lanci for support while speaking.
Although Lanci couldn’t directly help her pass this level this time, the versatile Lanci must have a way to provide her with a little assistance.
However, it seemed that Lanci was waiting for Hyperion’s call for help.
"Antanas, I have hidden Talia. If you miss this opportunity, you will never see her in this life, I promise."
The Great Love Poet took a step forward and said to Antanas straightforwardly.
Hyperion’s eyes widened, instantaneously.
We asked you to persuade her, not to deceive her!!
They couldn’t afford the cost of deceiving a great demon!
And if Antanas realizes this intense speech was a lie, she would be truly infuriated to the extreme!
"..."
The Great Love Poet patted Hyperion on the shoulder and signaled her to trust him, it’s perfectly safe.
He was kind-hearted, he couldn’t bear the separation of loved ones, now he must take Antanas back to Ichrite in the South Continent and let her see how happily and peacefully Talia was living!
