Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination Chapter 175: Emperor Principal

Chapter 175: Emperor Principal

"Lawrence, haven't there been any signs of an oddity in this nameless lake?" The principal spoke with a serious face to his two trusted people.
"All groups are looking around the lake, Your Majesty. There was no sign of a creature or demon possessing a Dark Magic aura yet." A ninja clad in black robes as if blending into the night spoke respectfully from behind his mask.
"We've been searching for two hours. Suppose I predict with the Dark Magic aura that still remains here. In that case, I'm sure there has been some suspicious activity in this lake since this afternoon or morning..." The principal walked closer to the lake to see his reflection in the lake water.
Right after he looked deeper into the lake, he seemed to have realized something. "Have we investigated the things at the bottom of the lake?"
"As for the investigation this time, it's not yet, Your Majesty. All groups are investigating traces of Dark Magic which are quite confusing." Lawrence responded to the things he saw around him. All reports were still incomplete.
"Looks like there was once a Devil Emperor and his subordinate who was no weaker than a Devil Saint... Maybe they've left, we're too late. Tsk, those cursed Devils, what are they doing on the Human Continent, and in my kingdom, hum?" The principal using his magic to form a ball of water that rose from the lake. He checked the water ball for a moment.
"Assign each representative from each group to send a few people to check into this lake! Check to the bottom of the lake. We have to know something before midnight!" The principal gave his order to Lawrence to deploy.
It was the only thing that crossed his mind regarding the cause of the dark condensed energy detected hereabouts or what was happening here. The presence of Devil Emperor activity and perhaps with his troops near his kingdom was not good news.
"On your orders, Your Majesty." Lawrence gave a slight bow of respect, then immediately went off to carry out the order with his technique.
He disappeared as if turning into the scattered wind and appeared at another group's location around the lake. The ninja disappeared and appeared at several points to convey orders from the principal to each group.
Meanwhile, a girl clad in an adventurous white dress with a cape had been overhearing all conversations. She looked at the principal with a surprised look.

'So, the principal of our academy is a Human Emperor? He has the same real name as Aeddoterra Kingdom Emperor... What happened... He disguised himself as Isaac Hussain?' Elysia asked in surprise through her mind.
She had seen the principal of Deterry Academy of Magic, but she didn't see his status at that time. She just went pensive in her train of thought during the new student opening ceremony...
'What's with this trend of disguising identity? That Pope Grandpa, that rude Devil Emperor, and now this Emperor Principal...' Elena also didn't know what to react. She also just found out about this and could only comment.
"Is it possible that the rest of the Dark Magic here has something to do with Sylvia and her father?"
'It could happen, Ely. We'll be able to confirm that later, but don't corner them no matter what if they don't want to tell you.' Elena quickly reminded Elysia right after some thought crossed the latter's mind.
'En, I understand. Elysia nodded her head slowly. She also couldn't force them. She just needed to know whether it was dangerous to humans or not.
Suddenly, she remembered the block of gold Vanessa had found at the bottom of this lake. Was it probably related too? Elysia wondered, but no one knew the answer before she confirmed it to the source in person.
'Ely, look! Some of them took off their robes and armor to dive into the cold deep lake. Look at their abs and muscles. All of them are trained, even for mages, hehe...' Elena cheered a little comically while pointing at several people who immediately threw themselves into the lake.
'Uh...' Elysia broke out of her pensive. She was at a loss for words to respond.
She was just waiting for the reports to come soon. She also wondered what might be found at the bottom of the lake that was more than two hundred meters deep.
Some people reappeared on the lake's surface a few minutes later, and they went ashore to put on their robes again.
Incident reports were immediately reported in detail. Elysia eavesdropped on it all from the sky silently.
At the bottom of the lake, there was an unusual degree of destruction. Something like it had been extracted from the bottom of the lake by thorough underwater excavation.
An activity of searching for something and taking it had happened in this lake. The culprit was clearly the devils led by a Devil Emperor! The viscosity of the remaining Dark Magic at the bottom of the lake could be substantial evidence.
"What are those damned devils doing in this lake, huh? What are they looking for, and what might they have picked up at the bottom of the lake? This was a stealth operation from devils, and we are tracking it down so late. Obviously, this is suspicious." Arthur Griffith frowned when he heard all the reports.
He came here with troops ready for ambush war, to help troops on the forest border who had come to the scene first. Unfortunately, all of them were late, and it was so late, the devils were gone hours ago.
"Sigh..." Arthur Griffith sighed as he looked at the night sky, whatever caught his attention to look up.
He wondered what might be taken from the bottom of this unnamed lake that attracted the unknown Devil Emperor.
Something important from this giant lake so wide and deep created by a violent explosion that dropped here and was followed by an unnatural phenomenon that engulfed this entire forest.
The exchange of moves between the two Gods, it was the rumor that was circulating around...
At the same time, Elysia was no longer around that gigantic unnatural lake. She had fled after feeling enough to know what happened. She had already blinked and finally arrived at the top of a rather large city near the western and southern regions' borders.
Silently entering invisible magic through the main city gate, Elysia waited no more and headed straight for the inn near the guild building.
'Em, yes, Lovely Bone, this is the place. Sylvia asked me to meet her in the room she booked at this inn. I'm sure she and her father are here.' Elysia checked the inn building's signboard and entered there without the need to revoke her invisible magic.
Sylvia was lazing on the bed at that time. She'd been playing her Swype ever since the sun turned into the moon.
She just waited for her friend to come to this room right after she and her father had dinner together. Whereas her father locked himself in his room for brief research.
She wanted to send a message to Ais, but Ais's Swype ran out of power... And it was since this afternoon! She must fill the boredom by helping her father dive into that deep lake and dig under the water! Continuously, from noon till evening!
"Aahh... Stupid me, I forgot to teach Ais to charge her Swype. Even though it's just digging under the water, I feel tired... I should just help a little and leave the rest just to accompany father with his business..." Sylvia swung her hands and feet on the bed as if she'd just done something stupid.
"Ah, I've been lying down for an hour... Will Ais be here any minute? In the Holy Central Region, it might be around nine o'clock. Yes, she will arrive maybe in a few minutes." Sylvia jumped out of bed, she reassured herself after getting tired of playing with her Swype.
She didn't panic or feel scared even though she knew that Avrora Forest's activities had reached the human army.
"Maybe at this time, many humans of various forces were investigating the vicinity of the giant lake." Sylvia giggled as she imagined that.
Luckily, she and her father immediately fled far away from the scene after all that large-scale digging with Dark Magic. Surely no one would know it was all the work of the two of them, the father and daughter duo.
"Ah, why am I giggling here? Ais might be here in a bit. Do my hands still smell like dirt? En, no, they smell good, and none of my nails are broken." Sylvia patted her forehead, then checked the smell of her hands and fingers.
"Hm, do I smell of sweat or lake water? En, no, I smell good after taking a shower. Yes, I'm perfect for meeting Ais, na-nanaa~" Next, Sylvia checked her body odor. She nodded with a smile while humming melodiously, then she sat on the sofa near the bed.
She didn't forget to revoked her soundproof barrier. Who knew how many times she had put up and removed this barrier.
*knock* *knock*
She only hummed for a few seconds, suddenly there was a light knock on the door.
