Chapter 1 The Purgatory Land

The Demon Realm, a land of purgatory.

After a whole night of flying and bumping, the Surveillance Department's guard legion, driving the Demon Realm flying dragons, finally arrived at their destination around midnight—

Purgatory Corridor Academy.

It can be called one of the best-known schools in the Demon Realm. At the same time, the purgatory land where it is located also houses the Demon Realm's nine-layered prison, which makes all demons tremble with fear.

After passing the inspection around the academy, the area beyond is a forbidden zone for foreign magical beasts.

The demon legion's flying dragons circled in the air, finally landing steadily on an open space.

The officer demons jumped off the flying dragons one after another. They checked the surrounding environment and, after confirming there was no danger, a figure finally walked down slowly from the stairs built by the flying dragon.

His gait was calm, and that noble aura seemed to be the master of the night.

The avenue in front of him stretched out like a bridge, paved with deep gray stone bricks, like a guiding giant python, leading directly to the entrance of Purgatory Corridor Academy.

The starlight in the night sky intertwined with the red light peculiar to purgatory, reflecting each other, adding a touch of psychedelic feeling to this dark environment.

Led by the guard legion's officers, they moved forward along the avenue. The scorching heat emanating from the purgatory land seemed to make the air particularly heavy, and in the distance, the academy's huge main gate finally slowly opened, as if warmly welcoming the arrival of the vampire envoy.

This vampire envoy did not hide his unique magical fluctuations. His scarlet eyes seemed to contain a profound and mysterious authority called truth. He walked calmly on the avenue, his elegant noble attire dark and exquisite, his temperament stern and dignified.

During the advance, the officer responsible for cooperating with the vampire in the inspection, closely following behind the vampire envoy, seeing that they were about to meet with the school, finally wanted to boldly confirm the vampire's attitude.

He lowered his voice and asked:

"Baron Sanchez, do you need us to take the initiative in terms of force?"

Before they set off, the upper echelons of the Security Bureau had instructed them not to consider the school's obstruction, prioritizing the vampire's satisfaction.

Of course, the above instructions were very flexible. Whether they needed to be executed specifically depended on the vampire envoy's attitude.

"No need, but if I find humans, and the school tries to prevaricate or refuses to admit guilt, you can do whatever you need to do."

The vampire envoy, Baron Sanchez, replied simply.

"Understood."

The officer behind him understood Sanchez's meaning and responded confidently.

Sanchez nodded with a light smile.

Although the demons' current attitude is to give way to the vampires,

being too tyrannical towards the demons would make the vampires appear unreasonable, perhaps giving the demons a chance to retaliate.

As long as the humans hidden in the school are found, with the evidence in hand, the demons will have nothing to say.

At that time, if the school dares to resist, it will be adding mistake upon mistake. The vampires have plenty of ways to use this to put pressure on the Demon King to exchange for more benefits.

The reason why Baron Sanchez is so confident is that neither the Demon Realm Surveillance Department, the Education Department, nor the Purgatory Academy knows how accurately his authority can capture humans.

Even though he himself is only at the fifth rank.

But he possesses a unique innate authority—

\[Blood True Eye], which can ignore all disguises and see the most essential soul state of all targets.

As long as one enters Sanchez's range of perception, whether it is magical or physical disguise, it is meaningless.

Even if the Empire's transformation surgery can make humans indistinguishable from demons, the soul will not change. Demons and humans, as different species, have inherent differences from birth.

In front of Sanchez,

any disguise that harbors a侥幸 mentality (jiao xing xin li, fluke mentality) and tries to deceive him

will only appear extremely foolish. Even the academy's high-level officials, even the principal, cannot deceive him.

...

The vampire envoy Baron Sanchez and the accompanying officers walked forward on the bridge for a while.

At the end of the stone-brick avenue, they saw the delegation from the demon academy waiting.

The delegation, composed of all the academy's high-level officials, was there to welcome this esteemed guest.

The academy's high-level officials stood together solemnly, but in their eyes, it could be seen that they were not very enthusiastic about this ceremony.

Although these were some superficial and somewhat reluctant etiquette, they finally completed the formalities.

A vampire envoy was a small matter, but behind him was the vampire race that dominated the entire southern continent. Even the demons were unwilling to be enemies with that group of vampires who were born with terrifying authority and possessed immortal bodies.

"Vampire envoy, Baron Sanchez, welcome to Purgatory Corridor Academy."

The acting principal of the demon academy, welcoming the vampire envoy, smiled and looked at the approaching vampire envoy, her posture elegant, bowing slightly, with the vice-principal and a group of academy high-level officials standing behind her.

Baron Sanchez's scarlet pupils flickered, as if endowed with life, and fell on the academy principal, locking onto her, as if to see through her soul and origin. His gaze also enveloped the other academy high-level officials, giving them scrutiny.

Even though it was unlikely that a human could infiltrate the demon academy's faculty, even reaching the high-level, out of absolute caution, they still had to be checked.

Soon, his pupils returned to normal.

The result was that there were no problems.

There were no problems with these demon academy teachers.

Although the principal was very, very weak.

But without a doubt, she was a genuine upper demon, noble and mysterious.

"Baron Sanchez, are you suspecting that I am a human imposter?"

The acting principal, wearing a crimson礼裙 (li qun, ceremonial dress), raised her hand and stroked her gray hair, asking the vampire envoy meaningfully.

The vampire envoy Baron Sanchez was slightly stunned for a moment by the female demon who asked him the question.

Just hearing her soft voice made him feel a little fluttered, as if the gray-haired demon in front of him was the embodiment of charm and beauty.

Immediately, Sanchez quickly retracted his vampire authority and stopped staring at her.

"No, Your Excellency must be a noble upper demon from a prestigious family in the Demon Realm."

Baron Sanchez bowed slightly and said.

"We must be cautious for the sake of work. Please forgive me if I have offended you."

"..."

The gray-haired demon smiled without saying a word, her eyes like the碧波荡漾 (bi bo dang yang, rippling blue) lake surface, her lips changed slightly, gradually bringing up a sly sense of triumph.

She was not Lan Qi.

But the Great Love Poet, who was in sync with Lan Qi, was playing a double act with Lan Qi, who was sitting in the principal's office, and was coming forward to welcome the vampire envoy!
