Chapter 680: Chapter 487: The Holy Light Goddess Doesn’t Want Qin Chu to Die (Part 1 of 4000 Words)_2

However, Vena had grown up among the Blood Elves, who were known for their selfishness. Compared to Iyeta, Vena was more cunning and had better control over her emotions.

Soon, that beautiful face was once again adorned with the same charm and sensuality as before, with tender lips always bearing a shallow smile, and a graceful figure sashayed forward, "Iyeta, Helois... It’s been such a long time without contact. I was starting to wonder whether Qin Chu had discovered you."

In fact, what Vena and Queen Atreus were really worried about was whether Helois and Iyeta would betray them.

Of course, Vena would never openly say such a thing in front of the two, as she was not that foolish.

"We can’t help it, we are, after all, Demons." Helois spoke quietly, "Hero Qin Chu might be lascivious, but he’s not stupid. The mere difference in our bloodlines is enough to make him very wary of the two of us."

"To the Hero, we are nothing more than excellent toys, but that doesn’t mean the man would relax his control over us."

"Therefore, without special circumstances, we dare not rashly contact Queen Atreus, which I’m sure Princess understands, right?"

Vena nodded slightly, her smile unchanged, "Understood, understood, of course I understand."

This was very similar to what she and Queen Atreus had guessed.

Even if Qin Chu possessed rings that controlled Helois and Iyeta, the fact that they had Demon Blood flowing in their veins would never change.

But the more that was the case, the better it was for the Princess.

The stronger the desire of Helois and Iyeta to escape the Hero’s control, the more they would depend on the Princess to successfully break free.

Considering this, Vena took another step forward, "My dearest sister, you’ve suffered during this time."

"The Princess understands your current predicament, which is why she strictly ordered us not to contact you at will. She was worried about that cunning man becoming aware."

"You see, the Princess genuinely cares about you."

"Any news from the Hero’s side?" Vena quickly inquired about the pressing issue.

As for Helois and Iyeta’s situation, she and Queen Atreus didn’t care at all. What they were more concerned about was the whereabouts of the Hero... Of course, verbal expressions of concern were still necessary.

It only took a few words, and it didn’t cost anything.

"The Hero will leave the Imperial City tomorrow and head towards the Ice Duchy," Iyeta said quietly, without a hint of concealment.

According to the master, with Blood Elves, who are cunning creatures, around Queen Atreus, lies would hardly deceive them; only the truth could make them believe.

As expected, Vena’s eyes brightened sharply; so much time had passed and the Hero was finally leaving the Imperial City.

But instead of being overwhelmed by the news, Vena quickly calmed down, "Why would the Hero suddenly leave? If the information we received is correct, the Hero is currently weakening, right?"

A Hero who is draining of strength leaving the protection of tall city walls at this time is clearly not a wise choice.

"It’s because there’s a woman named Antasia who is the Princess of the Ice Duchy, and it seems the Ice Duchy has run into some trouble recently," Iyeta said with a disdainful expression.

It seemed like a mockery of the Hero, who was ready to face danger alone for a woman. Such a thing would never occur among Demons.

In the nature of Demons, seeing other Demons in trouble, they would probably clap and cheer.

Vena slightly nodded, understanding.

There did seem to be some issues in the Ice Duchy indeed. Lately, even the lairs of Demons established there seemed forced to close due to the bone-chilling cold.

Even the Demons couldn’t withstand the cold that spread from the ice fields.

"When will he depart, and what’s the specific route?" Vena hurriedly questioned.

This was the crux of the matter; knowing the time and the route would allow Queen Atreus to prepare an ambush ahead of time and utterly annihilate the Hero.

Helois shook her head slightly, "Sorry, we’re not clear on that information. You know the Hero doesn’t fully trust us and wouldn’t share such confidential intel with us."

"It’s even uncertain whether he will take us along with him."

Just a little bit of truthful information is enough; divulging too much could instead arouse suspicion.

Although Vena had anticipated this possibility, she still felt discontent in her heart.

Useless trash.

But, as before, Vena did not show her dissatisfaction, "Is there any other news?"

"Yes, it’s just as you’ve heard. The Hero is very frail now. Previously, in the Exeter Kingdom, the Hero seems to have had a fierce battle with a mysterious and formidable being, nearly exhausting his power. His recovery has also been very slow. From this standpoint, now indeed seems to be the best moment to eliminate the Hero," Iyeta explained.

"But honestly, I would not advise Queen Atreus to take the risk."

"Although the Hero’s strength is waning, there are many powerful women by his side. The capabilities of these women should not be underestimated, and naturally, the Hero will bring along a large number of women for protection when he travels to the Ice Duchy."
