Everyone in the Abyss Order heard Chloe's speech... Seeing Chloe's "severely injured" and disordered breathing, everyone subconsciously believed Chloe's lies, and basically all turned their attention to Tikina.

"Lady Nina, you really know how to joke with me..."

Tichina, who had no idea what had happened, thought Chloe was playing a "bad" joke on her. She hadn't attacked Chloe at all, and Chloe wasn't injured at all. What she vomited wasn't blood, but tomato juice! But before she could explain, a familiar voice appeared above the heads of the cult members.

"Tikina, you did a great job. You are truly my daughter."

This person is none other than the Demon King, Muqia, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Realm.

After Muqia appeared, the members of the Abyss Order present all gave way to her... and were shocked by Muqia's statement... As their leader, she was actually the daughter of one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Realm?!

Furthermore, judging from the words of [King of Calamity] and the disheveled appearance of the cadres who led them during this period, it seems that this cadre of the cult has betrayed the cult and attacked the cult's "partners"?

This is definitely explosive news... but the problem is, with the emergence of the Four Heavenly Kings and the betrayal of their leader, it seems useless for them to know this news.

Because their lives seemed to be in danger...

Chapter 375 A Second Blossom

Impossible! Why is that old woman here? And how did she recognize me?

When Tichina saw Miukia, she was also shocked.

She clearly concealed her appearance using her mental abilities, and her aura had been completely altered by abyssal energy. Logically, even a god-level demon lord... the previous demon lord shouldn't have been able to recognize her as "Hisera"...

That's right, Heather is Tichina's real name, or rather, the name she abandoned before joining the Abyss Order.

She also used her mental abilities to disguise her appearance... and it was only because she had just severed all ties with the succubus race a few days ago using the Abyss that she dared to come back to the Demon Realm to handle matters.

That's why she was shocked that she had been recognized by Miao Qiya.

No...maybe it wasn't that old woman, Muqia, who recognized her...wait, maybe she just knew I was a succubus, so she used this method to "sow discord"?

After a brief moment of shock, Tikina… or rather, Heather was called her daughter by Miukia, and this was a possibility that she could accept more.

However, what she didn't know was that the disguise she created using her mental talent had absolutely no effect on Chloe... Chloe didn't even realize that she had disguised her face.

And to be honest, if Miucia hadn't known that Chloe's mental strength was stronger than hers, and hadn't been so certain that the "majestic woman" below her, who didn't resemble her daughter at all, looked exactly like Tiffany, she might have even thought she'd picked up the wrong person...

Back with Heather, after guessing that Mulcia probably hadn't recognized her, she immediately refuted Mulcia's statement:

"What a joke! Who's your daughter! Don't try to sow discord with such a lame excuse! Lady Nina... I don't know what you're trying to do, but isn't this the time to dwell on that? The enemy is one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Clan, the [King of Calamity], someone we can't handle! And that Executor, join forces with me to break through!"

Although Chloe's injury was clearly an act... Heather didn't immediately suspect that Chloe and Miukia were in cahoots...

After all, the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Realm and the Abyss Order are sworn enemies, and the Demon King, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Realm, actually collaborated with the Abyss Order to frame her? What a joke!

So even if she didn't believe it, not only would ordinary members of the Abyss Order not believe it!

Tichina thought to herself... but in her "desperate moment," she overlooked a crucial question: why did Chloe's feigned injury coincide with a "cooperation" with Miukia?

When Tikina called for Chloe and Stella (whose name she didn't know) to help her "break out," Chloe and Stella immediately sprang into action... Stella protected Chloe, keeping her away from Heather, and Chloe then joined Miukia in pointing at Heather and saying:

"Stop pretending, you traitor! You attacked me and seriously injured me, and you even colluded with the Four Heavenly Kings to destroy the runes I set up... Are you really the daughter of this [King of Calamity]?!"

"Heather, my dear daughter, now that you've been exposed, what's the point of pretending? Come with me to eliminate these members of the Abyss Order, and then come home with me!"

Seeing Chloe and Mükia's coordinated actions, even the slow-witted Heather realized something was wrong... Chloe and Stella were clearly in cahoots with Mükia!

And they actually conspired to frame her?

What on earth is going on?!

However, Heather didn't have time to think about it anymore. There were so many ordinary members of the Abyss Order watching, and she had to distance herself from the label of "traitor"!

Just as Heather was about to say something to distance herself from the label of "traitor," Chloe immediately shouted to the ordinary members of the Abyss Order around her:

"What are you all standing there for? Run! The two of us can't protect you for long! Split up and run! Every one of you who can escape is a winner!"

After saying that, Chloe and Stella also unleashed a powerful aura, as if they were about to fight to the death with Museia and Heather.

Before hearing Chloe's words, the ordinary members looked at Chloe, then at Mukia, and finally at Heather, whose disguise had been removed at some point... Seeing Heather's face, which was very similar to Mukia's, they realized who the enemy was.

So after Chloe spoke, they immediately scattered and ran away.

Seeing that the ordinary members had successfully escaped, Heather knew that there was no point in arguing anymore.

Two high-ranking officials and the four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Clan "personally confirmed" it, and her disguise had been exposed at some point... This essentially meant that no matter how she explained, it would probably be to no avail.

Although Heather still couldn't understand why Chloe and Stella could team up with Miukia to frame her, she roughly understood that this was a trap to harm her.

If the [King of Calamity], one of the Four Heavenly Kings, really didn't collaborate with Chloe and the others to frame her, then none of the ordinary members of the Abyss Order present would have survived!

In other words, they left behind so many "eyewitnesses" precisely because they wanted to frame her.

However, although Heather gave up explaining, she did not say that she had given up struggling!

Explanations are easy to come by. She has worked for the Abyss Order for so many years. As long as she can escape, and given the opportunity to explain to the higher-ups and leader of the Abyss Order, she believes that the higher-ups will not judge her as a traitor because of these small "rumors".

The traitors should be Chloe and Stella, who cooperated with the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Clan!

Although she was no match for the Demon King, Miukia, in the atmosphere of the Demon Realm, she could still try to escape...

At the very least, she should have struggled a bit!

Thinking this, Heather immediately unleashed her magic and used her escape skill to transform into a streak of light, attempting to flee the area.

In order to improve their escape ability, they even burned the abyssal energy within their bodies to gain stronger magic power.

Chloe and Munia both acknowledged Heather's speed; under normal circumstances, catching her would probably take some effort...

But you have to understand, there were three peak Saint-level experts present. How could she possibly escape...?

That's right. Besides the already present Myukia, Ilya and the others had been waiting nearby, ready to "encircle and annihilate" Heather.

Heather is now truly trapped with no chance of escape...

Sure enough, before Heather could run for long, she was captured and brought to Myukia by Ilya and the others. It was easy to say that for Ilya and the others, who were experienced in team combat, capturing Heather was a piece of cake.

After confirming that there were no more members of the Abyss Education around, Chloe and Stella smiled, picked up the Demon Sword, walked over to Heather, and said to her:

"Oh dear, Tichina... oh, I should call you Heather? Were you trying to run away just now? Too bad, there are too many of us..."

"You...she...damn it, why?"

Even when Heather was brought back to Chloe, she looked completely bewildered... She simply couldn't understand what was going on.

Although she already knew Chloe was a "traitor," she really didn't expect that Muqia would cooperate with Chloe to frame her, and even call on so many powerful Saint-level experts to capture her.

Any one of the Saint-level experts here is far stronger than her... and there's even a human among them!

So she said that to everyone present.

However, Chloe didn't intend to explain anything to her; she just smiled and continued speaking to her:

"You don't need to know that for now... Just get some sleep... It might be a little 'itchy'..."

After saying that, Chloe gently poked her stomach with the tip of the Demon Sword... Subsequently, Heather also lost consciousness due to the loss of energy.

To prevent her from escaping using any unknown means, Chloe and Miucia decided to first completely strip Heather of her ability to resist before sending her back to the Demon King's castle for "interrogation."

Although Chloe and Heather had nothing to say to each other, Muggia clearly still had a lot to ask her, so before deciding how to deal with her, she still had to "interrogate" her.

……

The operation to capture Tichina... or more accurately, Heathera, can be said to have ended successfully. However, to achieve the effect Chloe wanted, it was not enough to simply "dirty" her in front of ordinary members of the Abyss Order along with Myukia and capture Heathera so that she would have "no way to prove anything."

Or rather, after making Heather take the blame, that's when Chloe will have to take action... She can't possibly treat the Abyss Order members like fools, thinking that they would all believe their direct leader betrayed the Order based on just a few lines of dialogue, right?

If Chloe were to believe everything, she would find it unrealistic.

As for Chloe's next move... she'll just have to keep acting.

For the sake of authenticity, acting naturally requires going through the entire process.

The play wasn't just for the "junior leaders" who attended the "meeting" and successfully escaped; it also had to be performed for the vast majority of the Abyss Cult members who weren't present, as well as the innocent people in the north.

So after capturing Heather and rendering her completely incapable of resistance, Chloe had the four Saint-level beings, including Miucia and Illya, set off "fireworks" in the sky.

It created the feeling of four Saint-level beings in a "melee".

This "battle" was earth-shattering, alarming almost everyone in the north, including the high-ranking officials of the "Northern Union".

Finally, the "fireworks" ended with the "aftermath" of the battle wrought by Miao Qiya, the "Queen of Calamity".

And before the "fireworks" ended, everyone else gradually withdrew, leaving only Miao Qiya behind.

When the group of high-ranking officials from the "Northern Union," unaware of the truth, arrived, they only saw Miao Qiya.

Then, Miao Qiya used her pre-prepared script to fool the high-ranking officials of the "Northern Union"... She said that she was clearing out some enemies who had harmed the safety of the Demon Realm, and that she had already resolved the issue... She even acted as if she had "lost a loved one" and told the people of the "Northern Union" not to ask any more questions.

There was indeed an aura that was helping the [King of Calamity] before... Now, only the [King of Calamity] and a pile of wreckage remain at the scene, so those who rushed over could roughly guess what the outcome would be... Therefore, they did not continue to ask for details.

After performing this act, Miao Qiya also left the north.

That's right, Chloe and her team didn't intend to tell anyone in the Northern Union the truth about this matter... After all, there's a saying that goes, if you want to deceive the enemy, you must first deceive your own people.

Even the next day, Lulum, as the Demon King, made a point of announcing during a meeting that one of their Saint-level demons had died in battle in the northern part of the Demon Realm... and although it was forbidden to spread outside, "for some reason" it still got around in the Demon Realm.

The so-called "full performance" has almost come to an end here.

There's one last step... to let the Abyss Order know she's still alive.

A few days later, Chloe secretly gathered the survivors of the Abyss Order and told them that she had escaped death and that the mission in the north had failed. Her runes that poisoned crops had also been exposed, so she told the survivors to abandon the mission and continue to hide in the north.

Although these survivors will all have their identities discovered by "accident" in the days to come... as long as someone spreads the word that she is still alive.

Of course, Chloe never revealed her identity as the "prophet," but she did so not because it was superfluous, but because she was afraid that people would investigate her identity closely.

If someone from the Abyss Order were to investigate thoroughly, her status as the "Prophet" would definitely be exposed... After all, Chloe would need this identity to deal with the people of the Abyss Order in the future, so it wouldn't be good if the people of the Abyss Order thought she was dead.

……

A few days later, after Chloe had completely finished her "performance," she and Miucia came to the Demon King's dungeon to "visit" Heather.

Inside the dungeon, Heather was tightly bound in a "straitjacket" and looked extremely listless.

However, when she saw Miao Qiya, she seemed to perk up and gave her a light snort:

"Hmph, why are you still coming to me? I've said it so many times, kill me or torture me as you please, trying to play the emotional card with me won't work!"

After saying her usual stubborn remark to Munia, Heather turned to Chloe beside Munia, then changed her tone and said to Chloe in a mocking voice, "And you... you finally exposed your identity and got captured by this old man?"

That's right, Chloe, who was standing next to Tikina, was also wearing a straitjacket... looking as if she had been captured and taken to a dungeon by Miukia.

As for Chloe's appearance, what is she trying to do? Doesn't this scene seem a little familiar?

That's right, this is what they call a "second chance"! Chloe plans to use the "old method" to get information out of Heather.

Logically speaking, why can't this kind of formulaic approach with successful case studies be used repeatedly?

Chapter 376 Is it my fault?

Before asking Chloe for help to get information out of Miaoqia using the "old method," Miaoqia had actually explained a lot to Chloe...

That's how she explained it to Chloe back then—

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Miao Qiya wanted to confirm whether this person who called herself "Tikina" was actually her daughter, Heather, she would have "dealt with" her long ago, given her current uncooperative attitude.

Honestly, even Miucia couldn't tell whether the Abyss Order cadre in front of her was her daughter... After all, through Miucia's "meticulous" examination, this "Tikina's" body was no different from Miucia's deceased daughter.

If it were fake, it would be impossible for her to imitate even the mole on her daughter's body so perfectly, right?

In other words, it is highly likely that it is her daughter's body.

However, regarding the "inner" aspect... that is, the spirit and soul, since "Tikina's" spirit and soul had long been eroded and distorted by the abyss, Miukia could only see a slight resemblance to her daughter... so she couldn't be sure that this was her daughter.

As for whether "Tikina's" mind was being manipulated, Miukia also verified that, apart from being infected and distorted by the Abyss, there were no signs of being manipulated by anyone.

In other words, her daughter... or rather, her daughter's body, was most likely not manipulated by necromancy... This slightly reduced Miao Qiya's anger.

If it's truly confirmed that this "Ticina," who is 90% using her daughter's body, is a vengeful spirit controlled by some kind of necromancy... then Miukia might be so enraged that she might do something foolish...

Fortunately, things haven't gotten to the worst point... However, Miao Qiya can't say that the person using her daughter's body is her daughter. Although the physical body is confirmed and the souls are somewhat similar, it's also possible that some forbidden technique like "soul fusion" was used... In short, it's called "possession."

What Miao Qiya wants to do most right now is to find out whether this "Tikina" has any memories of her daughter, Heather.

However, although Miao Qiya really wanted to confirm this last thing, this guy who called himself "Tikina" refused to admit that he had any relationship with Miao Qiya and refused to cooperate in any way.

Because her mind had been distorted by the abyss and her mental strength even surpassed that of Mukia, even Lulum's mental magic could not affect her mind.

Because "Tikina" refused to cooperate and even talked nonsense, Miuqia really couldn't be sure whether "Tikina" was her daughter or not.

Logically speaking, if "Tikina" is so uncooperative, then she shouldn't really be Miucia's daughter, but rather a "fake".
