Chapter 406 - 386: Hyperion’s Mysterious Aunt_1

Only after Lanci finished explaining the prison’s structure and the operation plans and put his pen aside did he give Hyperion some time to think.

Hyperion lowered her head to look at the blueprint on the table, thought for a moment, and then nodded seriously at Lanci, indicating that she had remembered everything.

"The Bingxue Witch’s original plan was to sneak into the prison and secretly take a member of the Great Demon Clan back to Aestheland Kingdom on the day of the bishop election a week from now, when everyone’s attention would be diverted. However, based on our current situation, we could move this up a little," said Hyperion.

Once she took action ahead of schedule and entered the prison, the Bingxue Witch would also be able to detect something through Divine Arts.

This change in plan might startle the Bingxue Witch, but she should also understand that their side had found a better opportunity, hence the need to advance the action.

The entry into prison to rescue the targeted member of the Great Demon Clan was the final step of Hyperion’s clergy examination arranged by the Bingxue Witch at the Church of the Goddess of Destiny. Once initiated, the Bingxue Witch would sense it through Hyperion’s church relic [Proof of Destiny].

If she wanted the [Proof of Destiny] to advance to the almost unremovable Pink Holy Level and officially become an absolute core clergy member, her clergy faith examination would resonate with the few existence at the level of Great Priest.

They would serve as witnesses and supervisors, verifying the authenticity of the examination.

Though they cannot interfere or communicate, even the Great Priest and Paladin who were far away in the South Continent, or the Judgment Chief conducting an expedition deep within the Calamity Servitude in the extreme north, had the right to sense the ritual beyond the dimension through Divine Arts.

This was also the reason why there were few high-ranking defections or disagreements in the Church of the Goddess of Destiny.

At this level of clergy recognition, there’s no way to deceive the decision-makers of the church through any opportunistic methods.

Hyperion was now in a complex state of mind.

According to Lanci’s plan, by that day, the direct troops of the Hegemony Branch would disguise as students to assist her and the decision-makers of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny would not know.

However, she felt as if she was committing a great sin. This examination turned out to be the completion of the Rebirth Church, behaviorally, it felt no different from the insider the Rebirth Church pouring all its resources into infiltrating the upper echelons of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny.

"The information about these three members of the Great Demon Clan has long been sealed by the Grand Sage of the Protoss Empire, Isis. To the Protoss Empire, the Great Demon Clan is a taboo existence that even I can’t investigate at the moment. Did the Church of the Goddess of Destiny tell you their names?"

Lanci had already shared all the information he had; it was time to hear from Hyperion’s side.

He heard from Hyperion that she was commissioned by the Bingxue Witch.

So Bingxue Witch must know these three members of the Great Demon Clan.

"Guardian Antanas."

"Lawbreaker Sinola."

"Truth Pranay."

"These three."

What they had in common was their characteristic demon race traits of horns, pointy ears, and pupils. Not to forget, the innate coldness that radiated from within.

"...This seems somewhat similar to what teacher drew, but I also feel like it’s not the same three demons."

Hyperion stared at the three pictures in puzzlement.

"Um... I think you captured them correctly."

Hyperion analysed for a long time, tried to match them arranged in different combinations, and finally managed to put the portraits together with the names of the three Great Demon Clans.

Sigrid silently watched Hyperion struggling and confirmed that indeed, the Saint heir’s painting skills were just too poor.

It can’t possibly be that the Bingxue Witch couldn’t paint, right?

"Did the Bingxue Witch mention their strengths?"

Lanci inquired further.

"Uh, categorized into five tiers, normal eighth-order, strong eighth-order, quasi-archbishop level eighth-order, archbishop level eighth-order, ultra-archbishop level eighth-order, Guardian Antanas is between normal eighth-order and strong eighth-order. Law Breaker Sinola is of strong eighth-order strength and Truth Pullane is slightly stronger than Law Breaker Sinola, but he has more functions and isn’t the type for direct combat."

Hyperion described the power levels of the three great demon races that Bingxue Witch told her about using the power division method of Ichrite Academy in the South Continent.

Sigrid was somewhat taken aback as she listened; she wondered how the eighth order could have so many divisions. She didn’t even know what archbishop level strength was.

"So the Bingxue Witch plans to save Guardian Antanas? Why is she so sure that Antanas would cooperate with the Church of the Goddess of Destiny?"

Lanci analyzed for a while. Based on the characteristics of the great demon clan revealed by Hyperion, he believed that the great loyal servant of the demon race, Law Breaker Sinola, and Truth Pullane both had obvious desires and aspirations. Only Guardian Antanas seemed the most normal and didn’t seem much like a demon, which made it difficult to cooperate with him.

"Teacher told me that Antanas has some connections to my mother’s side. As long as I can see her, I would be able to persuade her to help us."

Hyperion replied.

Hyperion did not want to disclose that she is a princess of Demon ancestry here at the Hegemony Branch. Otherwise, these people might report her to the Protoss Empire and she won’t be able to leave.

Although Hyperion herself had never met her legendary Aunt Talia, according to the stories told by Bingxue Witch, Hyperion was quite certain that this Grand Demon named Antanas had a very good relationship with her aunt. If they could reunite, they would definitely be overjoyed.

After everything has ended, Hyperion and Bingxue Witch will also do their best to help Antanas find Talia, to fulfill the commitment given by the Church of the Goddess of Destiny to this Great Demon Clan.

Lately, Hyperion was also quite curious about what kind of demon her aunt was.

According to Bingxue Witch’s description, Princess Talia was very aloof, there was a thick wall between her and the other demons, only allowing those she recognized to approach her.

But for some reason, Hyperion felt an unusual sense of familiarity with Talia from Bingxue Witch’s stories, as if she was the mother in her dreams, matching her fantasy of a mother perfectly. She hoped that, one day, she could meet Aunt Talia, who would be kind to her too.
