Just as Su Xi was about to look for Prince Shi Yi, a small squad of orc guards approached.
"Your Highness, what brings you to Gularui Townstone?" the orc captain asked respectfully, then explained, "The guards at the teleportation array have been dealt with. We hope Your Highness will not be offended by their lack of tact."
This orc... doesn't seem so stupid...
Su Xi's first impression of him was that finding Fimiro was the priority, so she asked, "I need to find your Shi Yi. Please take me there."
"Okay, please follow me."
After saying that, the orc squad leader led Su Xi to a heavily guarded place.
Soon, Su Xi found the NPC she was looking for, the Disaster Witch Fimiro.
She wore a loose nightgown, her beautiful face full of contentment as she comfortably enjoyed the services of the orc slave.
"Fimiro?"
Upon hearing the unfamiliar voice, Fimiro opened his eyes and waved for the two orc slaves to leave.
"An elf?"
Fimiro asked curiously, "I don't think I've ever offended an elf. Could it be that this elf lady has the wrong person?"
"That's right," Su Xi shook her head.
Fimiro curiously leaned closer and smelled a certain scent. "Huh, you actually have that old guy Fan Huahua's blessing on you? Wow, that old guy is still alive? He's really resilient."
Su Xi: "..."
"Not only do you have the Fan Huahua's Blessing, but you are also a witch yourself? Wow, that's amazing, sis! An elf representing the stance of life has actually obtained the power of the god of death. Teach me, sis, how did you do it?" Fimiro said with a look of surprise.
"Ahem, I didn't come to talk about this. I was commissioned by the Third Princess of the Shadow Empire to investigate the truth behind the destruction of the Shadow Empire. Some people say you are involved in this matter?"
"Yes, it's related, witch sister. You wouldn't go against me for the sake of an outsider, would you?" Fimiro patted her mouth with her delicate, fair hand, as if to say that she was tired and didn't want to talk about such boring topics.
"Oh, then I'll have no choice but to resort to violence," Su Xi said calmly.
"Hehe, come on~" Fimiro sensed that this little one had only recently become a witch. Although she could sense that she did seem to have some strength, Fimiro didn't believe that this little bean could have any violent methods.
[Glacial Power]!
Su Xi tried out her newly acquired talent ability. After activating it, she walked up to Fimiro and gently placed her shoe on Fimiro's foot.
Fimiro's foot instantly flattened and cracked, accompanied by the sound of bones and soft tissue breaking. The intense pain brought tears and snot to Fimiro's eyes.
The pain completely dispelled Fimiro's weariness. The Disaster Witch stared wide-eyed in fear, gasping for breath. "Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! It hurts!"
"[Curse: Damage Transfer]!"
"You little brat, you don't take me seriously, do you!" Fimiro activated his curse skill, transferring the damage he was taking to Su Xi.
However, Su Xi didn't even need to make a move.
"System notification: You have been attacked by a curse. The [Curse Reversal] talent has been activated, and the curse has been reflected back to its original path."
Fimiro felt the curse rebound and his eyes widened instantly. The intense pain distorted Fimiro beautiful face, and he quickly cast Healing Magic on his foot.
"Well? Can you tell me now? I promised the Fan Huahua Witch that I wouldn't kill you, but I can hit you."
Su Xi said calmly, and then activated her Avatar talent.
[Dimensional Avatar: Yūko Helsatez]!
Fimiro was in so much pain that she kept losing small pearls, but thankfully the Healing Magic worked, and her flattened foot quickly returned to normal. When she looked up, she found that the little elf girl had become someone else.
Xiao You placed the Scythe of Hell on Fimiro's neck.
Fimiro felt the intense death power emanating from the weapon, as if he had seen a ghost, and hurriedly raised his hands. "... Okay, okay, hiss—, I surrender, I surrender."
"Mom, did I see Death?" Fimiro muttered after healing his foot before bringing up the Shadow Empire.
The reason why the Shadow Empire has become so dilapidated is purely because the emperor of the Shadow Empire wanted to obtain the power of the gods and unify the human world. Therefore, he secretly sided with the corrupt forces and planned to build a formation that would sacrifice the lives of the entire nation in order to obtain the gods' power of transcendence.
Most of the Shadow Royals in power knew about the fact that the Shadow Royals had sided with the corrupt forces, and they were secretly planning it. Fimiro's role in this was to pass on the summoning methods of the Fallen Priests. Fimiro directly gave all the summoning methods of the Fallen Priests to the Shadow King.
It indirectly assumes the role of a catalyst.
Su Xi canceled her avatar form and asked doubtfully, "Does this kind of formation really exist?"
Regardless of the circumstances, sacrificing the lives of the entire nation is simply insane.
"How should I know? I only gave him the summoning methods of those priests," Fimiro said nonchalantly.
"You seem to be an accomplice too, aren't you? You killed so many people, don't you feel any remorse at all?"
Fimiro once again wore a look of disbelief, then remembered that this little witch was not a pure Witch Race, but Elf race representing the life force, and said, "Anyway, these people are going to die sooner or later, I'm just helping them speed things up."
"Besides, the reason I helped Shadow King Pashis with this is because of the appearance of you Descenders. If the immortal Descenders were to join this plan, I can't even imagine what kind of monster Shadow King would end up as."
How did things get so complicated that the blame ended up being placed on the players...?
"But the Shadow King has sided with the corrupt forces, shouldn't you have informed the Cult?" Su Xi asked, her brows furrowed, increasingly uneasy.
"Ah, sister, I'm the Disaster Witch, who would believe me? Anyway, I won't do that. If I find a virus in a place, I'll just accelerate the spread of the virus there, letting everyone know that something's wrong. But whether it turns out to be benign or malignant, I don't care."
This guy truly lives up to his reputation as a disaster...
Su Xi shook her head, and then obtained information about the other members of the Shadow Royal Family from her.
The Shadow Royal Family members secretly slipped out before the formation was activated, hiding in anonymity somewhere, waiting for the formation to succeed before returning.
The Third Princess was probably one of the Menggu people, otherwise she wouldn't have run out to find any helpers to take revenge.
