Chapter 252: That’s Enough
“Elven illusions can be controlled, so we don’t have to worry about any problems with the illusion itself. But the demon race cannot,” Liana said.
“You mean... those demons were not products of the illusion?”
“I think so. It’s impossible for anyone in this world to completely simulate the appearance of the demon race, not even the elves. And those creatures we encountered in the illusion definitely had the aura of the demon race on them.
“That foul aura is something that even the most powerful elf could not fabricate. That leaves only one possibility. It’s most likely something related to the demon race left behind in some device from ancient times.
“As long as it’s related to the demon race, then it’s full of danger. The reason it’s safe now is most likely just because the device has just been activated and has not yet fully recovered,” Liana said.
“Is that why you were so worried?” Mephilia said with a smile.
“I would have been worried even without this,” Liana said. She had also learned these things from books. “What was left in the device was most likely the blood of the demon race. After so many years, it still has such a terrifying effect. And that day, the advance forces of the demon race also relied on blood to suddenly launch an attack on us. Once this blood gets on you, the consequences are unimaginable.” Liana explained all of her findings from the day to Mephilia.
“So that means we must not let the blood of the demon race touch us, right?” This wouldn’t be a problem for Mephilia. After all, she was a mage and basically used magic from a distance.
“Yes. Even in the illusion, you absolutely must not. Blood that can be preserved for so long and still have such power definitely wasn’t left behind by an ordinary demon.”
“Mm, I understand,” Mephilia nodded.
“Loraviel, you heard that too, right? If you have any questions or if I missed anything, you can tell me,” Liana said, looking at Loraviel.
“Rest assured, Princess Liana. I will remember everything you said.” Loraviel smiled faintly. Is she worried that I’ll be angry because I was ignored? How cute.
