Chapter 417: Lanchi's Treatment of Retired Rehired Personnel
Chapter 417: Lanchi's Treatment of Retired Rehired Personnel
With a simple exchange of clothing, Antanas now appeared to be an intern prison guard.
"I'm ready," she said, although she had taken human form before, but never had she transformed into such a completely incomprehensible disguise through transfiguration magic.
From now on, she would have to flee cautiously through the Protoss Empire until she successfully reached the Kingdom of Astralan and received aid from the Ice Snow Witch.
After all, Hyberrian's identity as a spy for the Kingdom of Asterian was clear, and their identities had some loopholes. Their cover could be blown at any time.
Moreover, the country of Protoss was filled with wariness and hostility towards the demon tribe. If they didn't remain vigilant upon their return to the ground, they might end up back in prison due to a moment of carelessness.
Antanas had made up her mind. Before seeing Talia, no matter how long and arduous the journey ahead, she would give her all to fulfill the contract she had made with the two little demon princesses.
Great Love Poet took the hand ring of a student of the Protoss Royal Magic Academy from the Tyrant Heaven Priest and handed it to Antanas, who had transformed into a human form.
"Antanas, your new identity is that of a resident of Qinsen City, Xueyuan Province, Protoss Empire. You are a third-year student at the Protoss Royal Magic Academy. After completing this Helrom Prison Guard assessment, you can apply for graduation. Once we return to the prison's foundation layer, you can retrieve your complete set of documents and identification for the Protoss Empire from the storage facility."
Great Love Poet pointed to the black hand ring and explained.
"Understood," Antanas said as she put on the hand ring and nodded in confirmation.
She never expected her identity to be prepared so thoroughly and wondered how long this fake identity would hold up in the Protoss Empire.
"You will then be specially hired by the Protoss Royal Magic Academy as a senior professor, working four days a week and resting for three. There will also be work related to the church, but that will be a separate salary, paid by each respective side. In your free time, you can explore modern life in the imperial capital of Helrom. Before we leave the Northern Continent, are you agreeable to this arrangement?"
Great Love Poet continued.
"..." Antanas looked at Great Love Poet, confused.
Why were they still staying in the Protoss Empire?
"Won't my fake identity be exposed?" Antanas asked.
"These are all genuine documents. Your household registration and school enrollment are authentic, personally processed by the governor of the province and the principal of the academy," Great Love Poet explained.
"?" Antanas was stunned.
It took her a while to recover from her surprise.
During her time in prison, just how deeply had the two little demon princesses infiltrated the Protoss Empire? They had cultivated such connections and influence that even she, a prisoner and a great demon, could openly integrate into the imperial capital of Helrom and lead an easy, free life?
What kind of sweet poison was this?
First, enjoy this life for a while, then return to the Southern Continent with them, and smoothly meet Talia?
"Is this really reality?" Antanas shook her head, as if to confirm that this was not the illusion magic of "Falling Gentle Country."
Suddenly, she felt that this reality seemed a bit surreal.
"When you are in the 'Falling Gentle Country,' you won't realize that you are under an illusion," Great Love Poet reminded her helplessly.
Just like when you realize you're dreaming, you're usually about to wake up.
"So... this is really reality..."
Antanas' eyes sparkled with disbelief, and then her irises filled with joy. A brilliant smile curved her lips, as if it could illuminate the entire room.
She took a deep breath, absorbing the happiness of this moment into the depths of her heart.
"Thank you. You are the pride of our Demon Tribe, and I will do my best to protect you to repay this gratitude." Antanas expressed her sincere gratitude to the two descendants of her friends.
"..."
Hyberrian felt the weight of Antanas' admiring gaze and, not knowing how to deny it, merely felt as if her human identity had been confiscated along with Lanchi's.
She wanted to be a noble human priestess, not a chosen little demon princess...
"Let's go."
After their conversation in the cell, Lanchi, accompanied by Antanas and Hyberrian, left the special prison cell.
As they stepped out, they chatted casually, as if a tacit understanding had already formed between them during their brief exchange.
Outside the cell, the two priests who had been waiting for them immediately bowed in greeting.
Even though the female priest among them showed no changes in her appearance, they all understood that beneath her exterior was a legendary Eighth-Rank Great Demon.
Antanas nodded to them in acknowledgment.
She was well aware that these two humans were now their companions, and she felt a strong sense of being dominated by the little princesses.
"The matter has been settled. We can now head to the Minus Fifth Layer." Great Love Poet said to the two priests, satisfaction evident in her voice.
"Yes, Your Excellency," Tyrant Heaven Priest replied.
Just as Antanas was about to communicate with them about how to cooperate to get through the 'Falling Gentle Country' and move forward, she saw the black-haired, green-eyed figure step out without any hesitation.
The others stood in place, showing no intention of helping Great Love Poet.
After a moment, Great Love Poet snapped out of her daze and continued forward, triggering the illusion on the next large floor space.
Hyberrian and Tyrant Heaven Priest naturally followed the path that had been opened.
Only Antanas was left, her face filled with disbelief as she watched—someone could actually ignore the 'Falling Gentle Country' and lead the way.
"No way... How does this guy's brain work? This is a Great Demon trial." Antanas muttered to herself.
She couldn't help but marvel at Talia's bloodline.
However, upon further reflection, Talia didn't possess this talent either. Antanas concluded that Talia must have found a remarkable husband who improved their bloodline.
Antanas became even more curious about the man Talia had married.
Although Antanas still maintained a conditioned reflex-like wariness of the corridor on the Minus Fourth Layer, she soon recognized the situation and quietly followed alongside Hyberrian.
The group traversed the winding corridors and eventually returned to the exit teleportation hall.
The deep purple mirror teleportation gate loomed at the end of the staircase, its twisted light and crackling electricity indicating that it had sensed their hand rings and that they had met the conditions to descend to the Minus Fifth Layer.
"Everyone, be extra careful. If we get separated later, let's try to gather at the exit teleportation hall." Great Love Poet cautioned the group as she noticed the danger prompt on the teleportation gate.
The Minus Fifth Layer's space was unstable, and the teleportation gate might not deliver them to the entrance teleportation hall; they could appear anywhere on the fifth layer.
