Ultimately, the Shadow Empire's current disaster is entirely of their own making.
In her previous life, Su Xi had never heard of the Shadow King gaining transcendent abilities. She thought he was just a background character, but she never expected him to be the culprit behind this disaster.
However, based on my memories from my past life, I can now confirm that this formation has probably failed; otherwise, I would have heard of the Shadow King in my past life.
No, there was indeed no Shadow King in my past life, but there was a Shadow Lord...
This NPC called the Shadow Lord later switched sides with the aliens.
I just don't know if the Shadow Lord and the Shadow King are the same person.
Putting aside what she couldn't understand for the time being, Su Xi asked, "The Shadow Lord, no, the Shadow King, is currently absorbing the power of these gods underground in Changye City, right?"
"Hmm, the more monsters you kill, the faster he absorbs power. If you've already killed so many monsters, you've probably succeeded by now," Fimiro said with a look of schadenfreude.
Damn, I really want to punch that Fimiro!
Su Xi turned and left in annoyance, then stopped as if she had thought of something, "Your presence here means you're going to be another catalyst for disaster in this country?"
"Huh? I didn't know, I just had a feeling I should come here, so here I am."
Su Xi walked over expressionlessly, activated [Glacial Power], and stepped on Fimiro's other foot, saying, "Symmetry still looks better."
Fimiro's screams echoed through the room once more.
After leaving Gularui, Su Xi felt a little melancholy about how to complete the mission.
After much back and forth, they discovered that it was their emperor who destroyed the Shadow Empire. Especially for the Third Princess, who was also her father, how could she possibly accept this?
Or you could use a news headline to express how outrageous this mission is: Shocking! The murderer who destroyed the country is actually the emperor himself, and the daughter's target for revenge is her own father!
"Phew, I'm back."
Although she only visited two places on this trip, Su Xi felt like she had spent the whole day shopping.
Back on the Holy Tree, neither Kurumi nor Mavis were there.
Kurumi is probably out killing monsters and leveling up. As for Mavis, who knows where she went? That lazybones could appear anywhere, or even go out to find a grassland to sunbathe.
Arrive at the Under Sacred Tree City and find Princess Grace.
He told her the results of his investigation.
Princess Grace looked on in disbelief, or perhaps she simply couldn't believe that her father would do something like destroying his own country.
They've all sided with the Evil God; what wouldn't they do?
Su Xi thought to herself, then took her to meet the royal family members hidden in the Saint Ace Empire.
Fimiro only said that they had gone to hide in the capital of the Saint Ace Empire. As for where they were hiding, Fimiro did not know. Fortunately, the Shadow Royal Family had bloodline magic, so as long as they were not far away, they could sense the location of their relatives.
Augustus, the capital of the Saint Ace Empire, is also the location of the Elemental Association headquarters.
The sky Augustus is colorful, which means that the Philosopher's Stone in Augustus is functioning properly. The Philosopher's Stone can continuously release magical elements, accelerating the mages' enlightenment and leveling up.
Of course, this had no effect on the Descenders. The Descenders' leveling up and learning skills seemed illogical to these traditional mages, but after learning that the Descenders were a race blessed by the Creator God, they dared not say anything sarcastic.
There are many mages in this place, so it is indeed the most suitable place to hide.
This is because this place allows the wearing of information-blocking items or mage robes, since mages are very averse to others casting detection spells on them.
"Your Highness Su, I... I sensed them." Princess Grace's face was very pale, and it seemed that she had accepted Su Xi's explanation.
After calming down, Princess Grace realized that as the Holy Maiden of the Elf race, His Highness Your Highness Su had no reason to lie to her.
At this moment, members of the God of War Guild, who were also in the town, saw Su Xi.
Mop God of War immediately ran over, shouting, "Your Highness Su!"
"Your Highness Su, what brings you here?"
Su Xi looked over and saw Cai Ling, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, and said, "I'm doing a mission."
"Oh, what a coincidence, we're doing a mission too!" Cai Ling's eyes lit up, and she wanted to go over and hug His Your Highness Su's arm, but then she remembered the rumors about His Your Highness Su and suppressed her impulse.
The other members of the God of War Guild also came over to greet His Your Highness Su.
"Greetings Your Highness Su ~"
"Your Highness Su seems to have become even more beautiful."
Su Xi responded to each question, then looked around and, not seeing the Cleaver God of War," asked curiously, "Where's your brother?"
"Oh, they discovered an underground ruin and are fighting monsters there now. I only came out because I was doing a quest," Cai Ling replied, then asked, "Does Your Highness Su need our help?"
"No need for that. My mission should be almost finished. What about you? If you need my help, 100,000 Gold Coin will do."
Thinking about all the blessings and strange items in the witch's realm, Su Xi felt it was time for her to make some money.
"Great! We just need to deal with the pollution outside the city. With His Your Highness Su's help, we'll definitely be able to handle it easily!" Cai Ling said happily.
"Alright, I'll be done after I see this princess off. You guys follow me for now."
"Good."
The other members of the God of War Guild had no objections and followed Su Xi's lead.
Following Princess Grace's senses for a while, as they passed a dark harbor, a person dressed in black robes approached and exclaimed in surprise, "Princess Grace, it's you!"
Hearing the familiar voice and sensing the power of bloodline magic, Grace asked in confusion, "Uncle William?"
The man in black robes removed his hood, revealing his face. Grace then confirmed his identity and said aggrievedly, "Uncle, I thought you were all dead. Why didn't you take me with you when you left?"
"Well... something happened." With outsiders present, Uncle William couldn't say too much.
Uncle William did not rush to take Grace back to the hiding place. Instead, he went to a restaurant, found a private room, and chatted with Grace.
Su Xi and her group sat outside, eating food from the Meta World. After a while, Su Xi was full.
Cai Ling was surprised. "Your Highness Su, you get full from eating in the game? Isn't it just about the taste?"
"Well, I'm a little special..."
Su Xi came to the game world in a physical body, so she could feel full, but Cai Ling and the others could not. No matter how much they ate, it was only a mental sensation, and they would not feel full.
(The reason this book was put in the blacklist is because it's a yuri harem story. I don't dare touch on romance plots anymore. Actually, besides Sheryl, Liu Yumeng, and Lei Fa, there are quite a few other romance plots, but if I continue to write romance plots plus eroticism, I probably won't have a chance to get out if I go back in.)
