After a brief, heavy silence, the Kolendan warden completely adjusted his mentality and emotions.

He cast aside his anxiety and panic, and set about handling the matters before him. Although his movements were still a little stiff, they gradually became organized, and the atmosphere in the office began to turn harmonious and orderly.

The three Resurrected priests still did not leave the Kolendan warden's side, like three professional debt collectors. Only when they had supervised the Kolendan warden to complete the matter as quickly as possible would they shift their gaze.

"I am processing everything for you at full speed, please rest assured."

The Kolendan warden buried himself in various documents, carefully signing and stamping them, ensuring that every detail complied with regulations. His speech speeded up a lot, filled with a plea for them to wait.

After giving the intern prison guards an exceptional evaluation, he added an extra note: the interns are too excellent, and at the interns' request, he will exceptionally send the intern prison guards into the inner layer of the prison.

Immediately afterward, Kolendan hurriedly handed these documents to the three Resurrected priests.

The priest took them and quickly came to Hyperion, presenting them with both hands.

"Lady Miriam, please take a look."

Priest Batie requested in a deep voice.

"No problem."

Hyperion received it with tears in her eyes, checking and confirming.

The priest respectfully took back the documents again, handed them to the Kolendan warden, and ordered him to record these documents into the magic guide instrument of the Hellraum Prison that connected to the barrier.

Hyperion witnessed all of this.

It was indeed easy.

She even understood how easy and pleasant it was to be a high-ranking figure in the Proto-Imperial version of the Resurrected Church.

But she felt that even if she put aside the fact that she was a priest of the Church of the Goddess of Fate, her school's graduation internship project should not be about coercing the department head and ordering him to do it.

She hoped that the Ice Witch would still be willing to listen to her explanation when the time came.

Two minutes passed.

"Everyone, the matter is settled, we can move on."

After completing the formalities, the Kolendan warden stood up, his posture slightly restrained, and personally invited the intern prison guards to leave.

When he spoke to Hyperion, it was almost with the attitude of asking a leader for instructions.

Because the three villains listened to her orders, and the very ominous black-haired, green-eyed girl was also being led by her.

Obviously, Miss Miriam Milford was the leader of this group of villains.

"Take us to the transfer hall."

Hyperion didn't want to say anything now.

"This way, please."

The Kolendan warden raised his hand to signal the intern prison guards to follow him out of the office, and then led them through the internal corridors of the prison.

These corridors appeared deep and quiet, with scrolls and lamps hanging on both sides of the walls, emitting a soft light that illuminated their path forward.

The Kolendan warden walked in front, occasionally turning back to make sure the intern prison guards were keeping up, and also inadvertently revealed a friendly attitude, hoping to make up for the previous misunderstanding, saying some small tips about Hellraum Prison or simple greetings.

Although his efforts may not completely eliminate the previous embarrassment and unhappiness, this change in attitude at least showed his efforts to some extent.

"..."

This made Hyperion feel even more tormented.

She believed that the Ice Witch, who was watching her now, was also very tormented in a high-dimensional space, and even doubted her life, feeling that the disciple she had personally cultivated could not be like this.

Soon after, the group arrived at the prison's transfer hall.

In the center of the hall on the first basement level was the giant void transfer gate. Mysterious ancient runes were engraved on the deep gray gate frame made of sea mineral crystals, and the deep purple mirror surface in the middle flickered with a mysterious and psychedelic brilliance.

The Kolendan warden walked to the steps in front of the transfer gate and took out his key crystal key from the inside pocket of his coat.

He gently embedded it in the control panel next to the transfer gate. The crystal key made contact with the groove, and the light on the transfer gate instantly brightened with a slight tremor.

"If you normally go down, you only need to complete the assessment on the third basement level to choose to leave. If you leave the outer layer and arrive directly on the fourth basement level, you can only go all the way to the sixth basement level to leave the prison smoothly. Whether it's the prisoners or the wardens locked in the bottom three levels, none of them are normal guys. Even Warden Bakas is unwilling to set foot on those three levels easily. I have made the risks clear to you. If any accident happens to you, I have never harmed you."

The Kolendan warden emphasized it to them again with extra caution, and after observing their expressions, he recorded this section through a recording crystal stone.

The outer layer of Hellraum Prison—the first to third basement levels—and the inner layer—the fourth to sixth basement levels—are essentially equivalent to two prisons.

Starting from the fourth basement level, even if you don't come into contact with prisoners, even just staying on that level will be extremely life-threatening.

"Understood."

Hyperion nodded in response.

Before coming to the Proto Empire, she had heard the Ice Witch tell her why the levels where the three great demon clans were imprisoned were so terrifying.

The lower three levels of Hellraum Prison were all forbidden areas once used for the "Great Demon Clan Trial," an important ritual in the former Demon Realm. Every once in a while, the spells and prisoners on the three levels would be exchanged and transferred, so before stepping in, it was temporarily impossible to know what you would encounter on the fourth to sixth levels.

The only thing that could be determined was that they would all be miracles constructed by ancient Demon Realm magic spells.

The Ice Witch believed that Hyperion, as the daughter of Ifathia and a member of the demon royal family, should not have poor aptitude.

Although the danger of Hellraum has been reduced by more than 90% after the renovation, and prison guards will not encounter the dangerous situation equivalent to the ancient Demon Realm ritual when entering, if they insist on courting death, they can still trigger the Great Demon Clan Trial.

As long as a demon clan can independently meet extremely harsh conditions by relying on itself, pass a Great Demon Clan Trial, or gain the allegiance of a Great Demon Clan, it will obtain a title soul imprint.

The nine fixed title imprints belong to the nine Great Demon Clan Trials.

And whenever a Great Demon Clan obtains a title that belongs exclusively to itself, it will have an opportunity to grant title imprints to other demon clans.

A hundred years ago, there were a total of nine different Great Demon Clan Trials in the Demon Realm. Now, after the defeat, they have been split into several places. The fourth to sixth basement levels of Hellraum Prison were rebuilt from three of them.

The rest have either been destroyed or can no longer be found.

Of the total nine trials, four test the heart, four test martial strength, and one requires the approval of the ancestral soul.

Possessing three imprints, including at least one heart imprint and at least one martial strength imprint, is enough to become a Great Demon Clan, causing other ordinary demon clans to submit, and at the same time, the demon clan's talent magic will unlock the path to the ultimate.

If the three imprints include the Ancestral Soul Trial, or obtain the approval of the contemporary Demon King, you will further obtain a title.

Otherwise, even if you become a Great Demon Clan, you will still be an "Unnamed Great Demon Clan" that is not recognized by the demon clan.

With six imprints, the demon clan characteristics will also undergo transformation, which is the aptitude to approach the Demon King.

Any demon clan that reaches nine imprints is also known as a quasi-Demon King. If there are no other competitors in the same era, then that is the Demon King.

Only the Demon King possesses special attack and command blessings against other demon clans.
