Two Possibilities

The succubus, Fei, was feeling a bit bewildered at the moment.

What on earth was going on?

Initially, she had just been feeling a bit restless at the sight of the shadows cast by moonlight streaming through the iron bars. So she Planning to enjoy herself before bed, however she inadvertently looked up and saw three figures inexplicably appearing in the opposite cell.

At first, she thought she was mistaken. However, when Priscilla struck a match to light a cigarette, she distinctly saw three glowing tips on the other side.

Following Priscilla's gaze, Qimora also noticed Fei and walked up to the railing, smiling at her.

Fei blinked in confusion.

A woman she didn't recognize—she couldn't fathom how she had entered this prison cell.

But one thing Fei was certain of: she was absolutely no match for this mysterious individual who had infiltrated this fortress-like Prison.

At this moment, Qimora gestured for silence towards her, then... ran her thumb across her throat.

Don't make a sound, or I'll kill you—fei, understanding the message, was immediately terrified, her face turning pale as she vigorously nodded in compliance.

"Very well," Qimora mouthed the words.

Fei, trembling, turned around, and slipping back under her covers, pretending nothing had happened.

While exposing the intruder could lead to a reduced sentence, she couldn't bear the repercussions afterward.

"lord Aiden, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that the enemy is too terrifying. I'm just a weak succubus who can only cry..." Fei thought to herself.

"Do you trust this man so much? Have you had a history with him?" Qimora teased.

"I'm serious," Priscilla's expression remained serious. "Aiden Galord is a master of the Divine Language."

Qimora's face changed abruptly upon hearing this, "Really?"

"I was defeated by him using the Divine Language, with the same 'Order' Abigail often used,".

"In the letter Vera sent me, she mentioned that the person who infiltrated our gathering disguised as you was him. I remember Abigail used that phrase on him back then..." Qimora recalled, "Could it be at that time..."

"It was at that time," Dailey affirmed. "He sought my help back then, and I assisted him in adapting the Divine Language through expression, but it ended up working."

"If the Divine Language was taught by Abigail, where did his divinity come from?" Qimora questioned. "Moreover, if he sought your help, that means he didn't understand the technicalities of speaking the Divine Language, how did he manage to defeat Priscilla using it alone?"

"I'm not entirely clear on divinity, but in terms of technique... he actually used the demon contract of 'Physical Transformation,' developed by Lamia," Dailey explained to Qimora. "In this prison, there's a convict who was Lamia's former apprentice."

"Ah, I vaguely remember that. Wasn't it called... Melusine? The one who was expelled from the witch gathering for impersonating Lamia?" Qimora nodded.

"Wait, I think something's amiss." At this point, Priscilla voiced her dissent, "During my interrogation by him, he discerned the basis of my research with just a few words, a detail even Dailey wasn't aware of. This individual's grasp of Divine Language intelligence is more than trivial... His use of the Divine Language is likely more complex than merely learning it from Abigail recently."

Reflecting on the information provided by the two, Qimora fell into contemplation. After a while, she offered her speculation.

"Two possibilities. Firstly, he might have already mastered the Divine Language and divinity. Upon hearing Abigail speak the Divine Language and realizing our knowledge of it, he played along with Dailey to extract more information, confirming the extent known by the witch gathering."

Qimora raised one finger and then promptly raised a second.

"The second possibility is that there's someone backing him who possesses exceptional knowledge of the Divine Language and divinity, granting him his divine abilities. After initially receiving information from Dailey, he obtained more detailed intelligence from this entity."
