Chapter 263: Fortune and Lessons

The main question in Lolth’s mind was focused on herself.

Why was she able to escape from the evil Divine Kingdom unharmed?

And… why was her magical power, which should be raging, now so calm?

She really had no idea about this — because in a way, Lolth was caught off guard and defeated by the God of Demise in an instant.

However, considering that the other side had planned this for a long time and used the entire Divine Kingdom to deal with someone like her, who wasn’t even a god yet, it made sense.

Of course, no matter how "reasonable" it seemed to be defeated, Lolth could not accept it.

She had overestimated herself.

Relying on her space magic, immense magical power, and the wealth and hidden cards she had built up, she thought she could act recklessly in a god’s territory… It seemed that her recent comfortable life in the main plane and her weak opponents had made her truly develop a false sense of security.

From now on, she needed to be more careful.

Regardless of the reasons, having a mindset of "maybe the evil god isn’t home" and a blind confidence of "even if they are home, I can definitely escape" would naturally lead to falling into trouble.

Even if Hillenbrand Town was in danger, thinking it over, jumping into the evil Divine Kingdom to reach the "Realm of the End" was definitely not the only or necessary option.

She was a bit eager to prove that her "technique" was correct and got ahead of herself…

Even though it is extremely unlikely for a god at the level of a supreme deity to hide themselves, if there is even a small chance that it could happen, I must consider it!

"No matter how many objective factors and excuses there are, in the end, it still comes down to my own judgment declining and being blindly confident."

Lolth sighed in her heart.

Although she returned safely this time, if she does not learn her lesson, next time might not be so lucky.

Most importantly… she is not even clear about how she came back!

Although she fainted directly, the state before her fainting allowed Lolth to clearly determine that she would definitely enter a state of magical rampage after losing consciousness.

She knows so much about magic and the soul that she can clearly deduce what kind of state her soul would fall into after such an attack, and how her somewhat special magic environment would change in that state.

Of course… knowing it is one thing, but being able to do something about it is another.

The chaotic magic environment after fainting is enough to disrupt the "coordinate transfer" spell. Although the spell was completed, under the blocking of the evil god and her own magical chaos, it should not be able to activate.

But based on Tina and Isabella’s total lack of awareness of anything unusual, this spell must have worked well and swapped her with the illusionary double.

Even if we assume for a moment that the evil god let her be and did not close off her powers, who calmed her chaotic magic?

It can’t possibly be the God of Demise, can it?

Although she didn’t know exactly what happened in the Land of End after she lost consciousness, Lolth still found some clues while searching for her soul and magic.

She sensed a slightly unusual aura of "magic."

Although the other party had intentionally hidden that thread of magical aura, they probably didn’t expect Lolth to figure out, after waking from her faint, that her magic couldn’t restore itself for an hour without outside help and thus left a trace.

Lolth carefully separated that tiny, almost non-existent thread of magic, which didn’t even have one ten-thousandth of the fluctuation of a basic spell. A fine, faint, golden thread of magic was drawn from her own magic.

Lolth focused on this thread of magic and felt a power that was completely different from Ultimate Power, and even from all the magic she knew.

"Life… Order… Creation? This is a bit outrageous…"

This small amount of power is undoubtedly divine power.

Moreover, the characteristics inside are somewhat terrifyingly "high-level."

Lolth figured out that the one who came to save her must, at least in rank, be someone not inferior to the God of Light.

After all, she often used several types of divine power, and aside from the Ice God, who became stingy and cut off her access to related divine spells as soon as he realized she didn’t seem to believe in him, the other gods didn’t really care about this matter.

So, through long-term use of divine power, Lolth was able to roughly deduce the nature of sub-god power and the status of the gods and the Divine Kingdom.

Lolth had a guess: that the stronger the god, the larger the Divine Kingdom, and the higher the rank, the manifestation of that rank would somewhat reflect in the characteristics of its "divine power."

Just like the "Great Expansion of Elemental Planes" recorded in the last era, which gave the four great elemental magics many more advanced and complex characteristics, marking the rise of elemental magic—Lolth believed that since the Divine Kingdom was just a special type of plane with a god, its "specialized magical power" might also follow this pattern.

But no matter what, it can be inferred that she was lucky to be saved because of the intervention of another god.

Lolth didn’t think she had such a great face to make a god come and rescue her, so if she thought about it, it must have been pure luck that she managed to escape.

After all, the only person I know who is most likely a god is the Demon King… But she must have suppressed her power to enter the main plane. Since I didn’t notice any major changes in the Demon King Castle after returning to the main plane, it shouldn’t be the Lord of the Demon King making a move.

Besides, no matter how much the Demon King values me, she wouldn’t risk her relationship with a god for my sake—let’s be honest, I’m just an elite level succubus interrogator, a mere bonus.

Thinking of this made Lolth feel even more afraid.

"I almost ended up meeting my end in the Evil God Plane while being the Spawn of the God of Ending… That place is so dark and empty, with a concentration of Ultimate Power more disturbing than abyss magic. Thankfully, a passing god helped me out!"

As she thought this, she reminded herself once again.

"I must not lose my head again!"

At that moment, Tina’s voice also came through.

"Mistress Lolth, we have arrived."

Coming back to her senses, Lolth realized that she had been walking and thinking, and now found herself unknowingly standing at the door of the "interrogation room for the United Kingdom of South Sotua."

"Oh—good, then let’s go inside."

Lolth nodded and pushed open the door to the interrogation room.
