I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 328, Section 1.22: Each with their own ulterior motives
Jera glanced at the distant gatekeeper priest, her gaze darting around. She chuckled awkwardly and tentatively asked, "Then... then what about the cage?"

Lanlos stared at him with a dark expression, not uttering a single word. His silver eyes were filled with icy killing intent, as if he wanted to grab the fish and fry it the next second.

Mu Yegui looked down at the book in her hands, a gentle breeze ruffling the stray hairs on her cheeks, making her delicate and beautiful face look even more stunning.

A wisp of black smoke drifted from the pages of the book and vanished in an instant, as if it had never existed.

Mu Yegui looked thoughtfully at the spot where the black smoke had appeared.

"Give me a word, old man. If you leave the cage, I'll leave immediately. If you don't want the cage, I'll... I'll take it back..." Zyra started to back down as she spoke, pouting and glancing cautiously at Lanlos's cold face before speaking softly.

Zyra awaited Lanlos's verdict, but heard no word from him. She kept muttering to herself, "Why are you being so fierce? I can be fierce too. Humph, I'm super scary when I'm fierce."

Mu Yegui paused slightly as he turned the pages of the book, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on his slightly pursed lips, as if he were in a pleasant mood.

Zyra is indeed very interesting, but you can also tell something from Lanlos's attitude towards her.

First, Zyra must be a very important character to Lanlos, so even though he was so insolent, he only told him to get lost.

Second, Zyra may be a close confidante of Lanlos. Her attitude towards Lanlos is not as fearful and distant as others. On the contrary, she is extremely familiar with him, as if they have known each other for a long time.

Third, the half-name that Zyra blurted out to Lanlos earlier...

Mu Yegui's eyes darkened slightly. She thought she had already guessed Lanlos's true identity, but she still needed to verify it further.

There’s no rush.

She wanted to see what Lanlos was up to and what his purpose was. Since he was keeping it a secret, she decided to pretend she didn't know for the time being.

Lanlos sighed softly, clearly knowing that some things couldn't be hidden because of Zyra, but he knew that as long as he didn't say it, this person would never expose him.

So he won't say it, absolutely not!
“The cage is no longer needed,” Mu Yegui said softly.

"Huh? You don't need it anymore?" Jera blinked and repeated Mu Yegui's words.

"Just now, the Dark King disappeared from my book."

It seems the Dark King has been dealt with, but shouldn't it be the source? Lanlos said it shouldn't be dealt with casually, so why did it suddenly disappear?

"It seems that power has been obtained by someone." Lanlos's expression was cold, but when he looked at Mu Yegui, a sweet smile suddenly appeared on his face.

When Jera saw the sweet smile on Lanlos's face as he looked at Mu Yegui, she trembled with fear. Oh my god, that scared the hell out of her!
"Um...can I take my leave now? I think I might have heatstroke and I'm a little dizzy...my mind isn't working well, I feel disoriented, like I'm having some kind of unbelievable hallucination, although I think even dreams can be nightmare hallucinations." Zyra weakly raised her hand and rattled off the last paragraph of adjectives in one breath, without even taking a breath.

Lanlos glanced at the gentle sunlight. It seemed to be winter, so how could he say something about heatstroke in winter?

Just as Lanlos was about to say something, a drunkard dressed in a white priest's robe with his chest exposed slowly walked over.

"Your new crown prince is in the main hall," Dionysus said slowly, yawning and speaking in a drunken, languid tone, uttering a word every few seconds.

Just now he was a haphazard, mentally unstable fish; now he's a drunkard who does everything slowly and likes to follow his own steps.

I always felt that the people around Lanlos weren't normal.

Although... Lanlos himself is the most abnormal one.

Lanlos stood up, grabbed Mu Yegui's hand, and led her toward the main hall.

Dionysus followed slowly, saying as he walked, "They are twins, quite special. This is the first time I've ever seen such a pair."

"Mingjin, Mingxi," Mu Yegui whispered the names of the two people.

From the moment Dionysus mentioned twins, she knew the new crown princes were Ming Jin and Ming Xi. Becoming the crown princes of the Mysterious Kingdom—was it a good thing or a bad thing?

As Mu Yegui pondered this, he spotted two young men standing in the main hall from afar.

The two were in a very sorry state and in a bad mood, showing no joy whatsoever at the prospect of becoming crown princes.

Mu Yegui paused slightly as a unique energy fluctuation emanated from Ming Jin, exactly the same as the one he had sensed in the outside world before.

In other words, Mingjin regained her prophetic abilities.

Laziness also possesses prophetic abilities...

The emergence of a new prophet will disrupt the current balance, but if Mingjin is controlled by Sloth, the consequences will be unimaginable. However, it's too late to stop it now; Mingjin belongs to the Kingdom of the Unbelievable, and no one is more legitimately suited to use her than Sloth.

"Mo!" Mingxi looked up at Mu Yegui, her eyes lit up, and she called out.

Because of Mingxi's voice, Mingjin slowly looked up at her, but for a moment his expression showed a hint of shock, and he involuntarily took a step back.

Lanlos took in their expressions, a dark glint flashing in his silver eyes. A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips, as if he were mocking something.

"Are you two the crown princes of the Kingdom of Mystery?" Although it was a pointless question, Lanlos still had to ask it out of politeness, even though he thought it was really stupid.

"A child?" Mingxi was surprised when Lanlos spoke, but after seeing him sit on the highest throne, she realized that the Holy Son Lanlos that Philu had mentioned was him.

“The Holy Son is just a child,” Mingxi added belatedly.

Jera's lips twitched slightly. She reached out and covered her mouth to hide the smile she wanted to give, but her body trembled as if she were going crazy.

Dionysus sipped his wine from his golden cup listlessly, standing to the side with little interest, never once glancing at the two of them, as if he didn't know them at all.

"The Holy Son..." Mu Yegui murmured thoughtfully. It seems that Godfather Lanlos is now a thing of the past, and Lanlos is now known as the Holy Son.

It is indeed a very interesting name.

"You've already subdued the two fairies, Bell and Drum, as apostles? Not bad at all." Lanlos glanced at the two fairies that were flying invisibly beside Ming Jin.

As soon as she finished speaking, the two little fairies revealed themselves, fluttering around Ming Jin. Because they were so small, they could only be vaguely seen as two balls of light, one white and one yellow, and their specific appearance could not be clearly seen.

Ming Jin lowered his eyes and remained silent, as if he were not himself.

"I do have one of the Crown Prince's items that would be very suitable for you, so I will bestow it upon you," Lanlos said slowly, having produced two discs resembling pocket watches with semi-circular patterns on them.
