Don't confiscate my identity as a human race

Chapter 169 - 158 Lanci’s Lucky Star Hyperion_1

Room 203, second floor of Lichtenstein Castle.

Perhaps Lanci felt that the atmosphere in Room 202, which had turned into a torture chamber, was not pleasant. So, with Hyperion’s help, he moved the Goddess Officer to the brand new Room 203 next door, along with the chair she was bound to.

The light in the room was bright and stable, casting a golden glow into every corner. The wooden floor was covered with a thick, dark carpet, a haven from the wind atop the autumn mountain at this late hour.

Hyperion had removed the gag from the Goddess Officer’s mouth and unfastened part of her chains, making her seated position on the chair less uncomfortable. He also handed her a blanket.

Within just a few minutes the Goddess Officer had gone from hell to heaven, her expression bewildered. However, the dependency in her eyes as she looked at Lanci intensified once again.

Across from her, sat Lanci and Hyperion.

"Let’s start with a brief introduction. I turned off the [Shadow World Record Program] long ago, hence the Rebirth Church will not know about any information from you. Regarding your detention by the Cerryti Empire after the end of the Shadow World, I will do my best to protect you through Princess Alexia and spare you the interrogation in prison, ensuring your conditions there are bearable."

Lanci stared at the notebook in his hands and began to write, speaking as he did so.

When the Shadow World ended, all the Challengers would return to the location of their original Void Gate entrance.

This time, the Challengers had all entered the Shadow World through the large unstable Void Gates controlled by the South Continent Shadow World Management Association, rather than the temporary "Unstable Void Gates" appearing in the wild.

Hence, the Goddess Officer whose identity as a Resurrection Believer was already exposed, would be immediately arrested by the heavy troops of the Cerryti Empire as soon as she left the Shadow World.

The Goddess Officer nodded heavily at his words.

Once she no longer considered Lanci an enemy, her heart had been filled with a sense of security.

As long as she did not openly betray the Rebirth Church, her stay in the Cerryti Empire’s prison would be much less terrifying. Even within prison, the Rebirth Church was known to take extreme measures to punish traitors with the death penalty.

Now, she had something to look forward to, even knowing she was going to prison.

To wait for the dreadful man named Lanci to infiltrate the Rebirth Church.

By the time he arrives at the Cerryti Empire, he may already have climbed to an unimaginable position within the Church.

Lanci listened to Stisera’s response, his expression calm as he looked at her.

The Hutton Kingdom has always been a major stronghold of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny, and has conducted several operations to purge believers.

The Hutton Kingdom is also one of the most ruthless in the Southern Continents’ countries in combating cults.

Now, any Resurrection Believers inside the Hutton Kingdom are sure to be like the Goddess of Destruction Adelis or the Goddess Officer Stisera, who are expert infiltrators with seamless identities. They are extremely hard to capture.

"There is a chance. A highly dangerous person will arrive in Ichrite from the Arolan Kingdom in the next few days. If Duchess Huberian isn’t found or eliminated in this Shadow World mission, he will spare no expense in orchestrating an accident in the campus to kill the Duchess."

Stisera glanced at Huberian, before speaking with a solemn expression.

"..."

The words gave no change to Huberian’s expression. But her heart started beating faster uncontrollably.

She hadn’t expected the Church of Rebirth’s attempt to eliminate her to be so determined!

It appears that someone is insistent she must die.

The fear and despair that had gradually dissipated through Lanci’s presence once again enveloped Huberian’s heart.

She was beginning to accept the reality that there would be no day of rest until she became stronger.

Every previous attempt on her life would have ended fatally had it not been for Lanci’s timely intervention.

Even though Lanci seemed to effortlessly dissolve each crisis, increasing the intensity might eventually get him killed too, no matter how powerful he was!

She lowered her head, her eyes gradually losing their spark.

Each time she attracted a disaster, Lanci got pulled into it too, carrying the burden for her.

The guiltier she felt, the more protective Lanci was of her, treating her as a dear friend and protecting her unconditionally.

She was nothing but a burden.
