An hour and a half passed quietly.
At night, the lights of the Devil's Royal Restaurant are dreamy in the darkness, exuding a noble and unique magic.
Accompanied by the delicate melody of the restaurant's instruments, Lanci and Hyperion ended their dinner.
The two reluctantly left the restaurant, as if they had left a dream and returned to reality.
Although later Hyperion accidentally became intoxicated by the atmosphere of the demon world.
But when she walked out of the glass door of the restaurant, she was shocked to realize that this sign of blood awakening made her feel that she was one step further away from others.
On the empty corridor.
Lanqi walked in front, as if taking a stroll.
Hyperion followed behind, dragging a gift box that looked like a coffin.
There are magnificent skylights on both sides of the corridor, through which you can clearly see every star in the demonic sky.
The starlight shines down, making this slightly angled corridor look like a crystal bridge connecting the stars and the earth.
Although the picture is beautiful, the two figures in the picture are also rampant.
Inside the coffin-like gift box, the silver-haired devil lay quietly.
His existence, like a cold gem, was given a noble resting place.
Under the illumination of lights and stars, the corridor reflects a quiet light like a mirror.
This corridor will extend all the way to the teaching area, which is their next destination.
Although they still need to wait for a while before the corridor can be connected to the teaching area again, such a wait is a rare enjoyment for them.
In such a corridor, you can leisurely enjoy the starry sky of the demon world that cannot be seen in the real world.
Lanci and Hyperion had no plans to visit the corridors of other functional areas for the time being.
Because if they ran around, their navigation demon Bacher might not be able to find them during the next break.
Hyperion placed the silver-haired demon's coffin at the end of the corridor.
Compared to other parts of the corridor, this place is particularly quiet, with only the clear light of the starry sky of the demon world gently shining around.
The two men sat down side by side and began to count their spoils.
A simple search would yield a large amount of credits.
"A great harvest! Good people are rewarded!"
Lanqi said with great joy.
It seems that they can still enjoy themselves in the function area before returning to the real world.
"Yes, yes."
Hyperion listened to his words, the corners of her mouth curled up helplessly, and she responded softly.
She always felt helpless about taking care of a child when she followed Lanqi.
After completely looting the Silver-haired Devil's legacy.
Lanqi and Hyperion's expressions gradually became a little surprised.
"No, this guy is too rich..."
They didn't realize it until they took a closer look at the credit coins they had looted.
The credits on the silver-haired devil are all in units of 10!
The black gold credit coins marked with special symbols seemed to be shining under the starlight. Each of these credit coins could be exchanged for 10 credit coins, or used directly as 10 credit coins.
This means that the silver-haired devil's credits are actually ten times more than what Lanqi thought when he first started looting.
Lanci's eyes turned to another item found in the silver-haired demon's inside pocket.
It was a black seal engraved with intricate patterns. The outer shell of the seal looked like a pitch-black gem, smooth and cold.
"… "
Lanqi tried to understand whether this was a magic item, but even Lanqi found it difficult to see its actual use.
He finally looked at the ID from the silver-haired devil, his eyes becoming more and more confused.
"Why doesn't he have a student ID, but instead a...Demon Castle ID?"
Lanqi's voice muttering to himself echoed in the empty corridor, causing ripples in the calm air.
…
Meanwhile on the other side.
The conference room on the top floor of the Purgatory Corridor Academy has walls painted entirely in deep purple, and the intricate and ancient carvings reflect a strong mythological atmosphere.
The tall dome casts faint starlight, projecting moon shadows and stardust into every corner of the conference room.
There was a huge round table in the center, with several senior professors sitting around it, each with a look of worry and seriousness on their face.
Their figures were looming in the dim starlight, accompanied by a sense of oppression. The air in the room seemed to be frozen, and the slightest sound seemed to produce a strong vibration there.
The vice-principal sat in the main seat, frowning and saying nothing.
He looked around at every professor in the conference room and said in a deep voice:
"Dear professors, the special commissioner from the Demon King's Castle should arrive at our school in the next few days."
"But according to the principal, this special agent is very good at acting and lurking. He may disguise himself as a student or teacher and go directly into the school to observe and investigate."
"While the principal is away, you must continue to strictly abide by the rules and be careful not to offend the Demon King's special envoys."
As soon as the vice president finished speaking, the other professors all nodded but remained silent.
They knew that what really made the vice-principal anxious was not because of the special envoy from the Demon King's City.
But there is another, more troublesome guy who will come to the school soon—the vampire messenger.
The vice-principal rubbed his forehead with his palm and looked very tired. The breath he exhaled was like winter mist and was instantly absorbed by the air.
He raised his head and looked forward, his voice weak, as if he was talking to himself, or seeking answers from the professors:
"The pressure from the Demon Realm Education Department is too great. The blood clan's envoys will soon arrive at Purgatory City. If the blood clan envoys find out that there are indeed humans infiltrating our school, then it will violate the North-South Treaty and we will all be in big trouble."
The North-South Treaty, also known as the "Non-Interference Treaty between the Vampires and the Demons."
In this chaotic world, the blood clan rulers in the south rise and fall, and the emperors of many human kingdoms are slaves of the blood clan.
The demons in the north are also weaker than the vampires, and are only isolated by the natural barriers of glaciers in the far north.
The demons must maintain a neutral attitude towards any matter between vampires and humans. This is the basic condition for the vampires not to attack the demons.
But now.
The vampires began to suspect that the demons were trying to break this balance in secret.
The cause of the incident.
It was just a ridiculous rumor that spread in the demon world some time ago.
It is said that the vampires have discovered that some humans are suspected of disguising themselves as demons, attempting to infiltrate the demon world and steal their knowledge.
At first, the demons didn't believe it.
Often only demons attempt to disguise themselves as humans.
But there has never been a case of humans trying to disguise themselves as demons.
Until later.
The Grand Duke of the Blood Clan seemed to have cruelly interrogated some key information from the family members of the researchers at the Imperial Experimental Field.
And we learned that there are a few last surviving members of the Empire's secret forces, who are likely to be lurking in this Purgatory Corridor Academy for a long time!
