Stop Hypnotizing Me, Antagonist Princess! - Chapter 468 - 256: The Great Escape from the Otherworld (Part 6)

Chapter 468: Chapter 256: The Great Escape from the Otherworld (Part 6)

But his words left Hillena, who was holding the leather boots, stunned in place, her lower lip lightly bitten, a faint blush appearing, seemingly a bit shy.

She looked at the delicate calfskin boots in her hand, then at her own smooth, fair bare feet, falling into unexplained silence.

As time ticked by, a trace of complexity flashed in Hillena’s eyes, and in the end, she still put away the boots.

Meanwhile, Lynn, who was meditating with his eyes closed, had a barely noticeable arc at the corner of his lips.

He could see that Hillena’s plot deviation had slightly increased.

This indicated that Hillena chose to compromise, or perhaps submit.

In her amnesiac state, she seemed easier to manage than usual, though the reason was unclear, it was ultimately beneficial for Lynn.

Ten minutes later, Lynn suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as lightning, his entire demeanor was no longer as before, with the effect of the Moonlight Original Liquid, his injuries were almost healed, and those once hideous wounds had completely disappeared.

But Hillena, unable to adapt to the bizarre black aura of this world, remained in a rather poor condition, running was out of the question, even walking was a challenging task.

Thus, under Lynn’s somewhat forceful actions, Hillena herself did not resist much, she merely turned her head to the side, allowing herself to be carried on his back.

The two figures thus embarked on the path to escape in the Otherworld.

…

In the depths of the Abyss World, amidst boundless wasteland, this place is rarely visited.

The fierce winds ravaged here ceaselessly, thick, impenetrable bizarre black aura corroding everything with spirituality and life, as far as the eye can see, white bones filled the earth’s trenches, there is no doubt this is a place of despair.

Yet, no one would imagine, in such a hopeless situation, there stood a city, solitary and abrupt.

Even though it was thousands of miles away, one could clearly see within the city, an ancient tree rising from the ground, its branches and leaves densely reaching towards the sky, as if trying to pierce a hole through the dark Sky Curtain.

It seems to be precisely because of the mysterious power radiating from this sky-reaching ancient tree that the bizarre black aura could not invade the city, creating a very rare oasis.

At the same time, this is also the only place with inhabitants in the entire Abyss World.

However, after staying in such a hellish place for too long, whether they can still be called “human” is debatable.

At this moment, on the high branches of the sky-reaching ancient tree, a woman of extraordinary beauty, dressed in simple Otherworld style costume, stood silently, gazing into the distance with focus.

Upon closer inspection, one would find a thumb-sized horn on her head, protruding somewhat awkwardly from her silver hair, clearly indicating they are not of the Human Clan.

Besides, their exposed skin had a peculiar pale purple hue, with uniquely patterned tattoos, bold and mysterious.

The horned woman stood on the high branch for an unknown period until there was a rustling sound from the branch behind her, she turned back to see a petite child climbing the trunk, hand over foot, step by step.

“Nora, didn’t I already warn you not to come up here so casually?” Her eyes flashed with a bit of helplessness, but looking at the child, it was full of love, “If you do this, Divine Tree will not be pleased, it’s the last time, understand?”

This Divine Tree’s full name is “Salamandorean”, comparable to the ruling position of this Abyss World, even the name is equally cumbersome.

“Sacrificial Granny, are you looking for something?” Asked Nora, the little girl with a horn on her head, her pale purple skin identical to the woman’s, “Are you looking for the source of those recent ’rumbles’?”

Though called granny, the woman’s appearance showed no signs of aging, instead, she looked as vibrant as a young girl, her pale purple skin adding to the exotic flair.

In their race, the women were always like this, distinct from their male counterparts who were as fierce as demons, this beauty was a natural gift of the clan.

The sacrificial maiden shook her head, “That’s not ’rumbles’, like you, they have names.”

Upon hearing that, the young Nora’s eyes gleamed with curiosity.

“It’s a tongue-twister foreign word called ’Divine Punishment’.”

“Divine Punishment?” Nora suddenly realized, “Is that the thing recorded on the stele at the center of the city?”

The sacrificial maiden gently patted her head and then nodded, “According to the stele, one day in the future, a mysterious traveler will be banished to this world, like us, they are Cursed, rejected by the World Will. When the time comes, they will break the shackles of this world and bring a new order—deliver the light of salvation to us.”

When she was Nora’s age, she too thought it was just an ancient fable, never expecting the stele could possibly become true, yet it’s still uncertain whether this mysterious traveler is a foe or a friend.

…

After fleeing for over ten days, Lynn carried Hillena, having little understanding of this world, he could only rely on instinct to run, and finally, one day, he found a dense forest in this barren land.

And beneath a rocky cliff deep in the forest, a pool of water exuded a deathly aura, akin to that of the bizarre black aura.

At this moment, Lynn undoubtedly appeared somewhat haggard, his clothes tattered, his entire being exuding the fatigue of long travels.

He laid Hillena flat on the rock, preparing to rest for a while.

One must admit, women are indeed different, after days of traveling, her clothes remained clean, emanating a faint floral fragrance, even her bare jade feet were immaculate, like an Elf untouched by dust.
