Chapter 2229: Fake Passport

Very quickly, under Yinsiluoda's guidance, Poson completed a comprehensive disguise of himself, from his appearance to his Fate Trajectory; he felt not the slightest discomfort wearing the Mask of All Souls on his face.

On the contrary, the change in his Fate Trajectory made Poson feel an inexplicable emptiness and desolation in his heart, as if his very existence had been abandoned by the entire world.

Such a feeling inevitably made him think of the current plight of the Demon Descendants; was it the same as what he was feeling right now?

But thinking of the "visit" to come, Poson still tried his best to suppress the various discomforts in his heart and, following Yinsiluoda's prompts, began to choose a location to depart.

There was not only one safe location to enter, and the same was true for leaving; one could appear in many places in Taier'annuo, and it would not be the same location as where one entered.

Poson wanted to see more of the current situation of the Demon Descendants as soon as possible, so he chose an exit closest to the Taier'annuo Portal; then, under Yinsiluoda's operation, he only felt a blur before his eyes, and he appeared in the shadow of a large sculpture on a street corner.

Not far from walking out of the shadow was the Teleportation Hall Poson had passed through when he arrived, but just then, Yinsiluoda suddenly said, "Follow me!"

A trace of anxiety was revealed in the originally calm and gentle voice; seeing this, Poson's heart tightened, thinking that his and Yinsiluoda's disguises had been seen through.

But the fact that he could still act normally made him doubt his own guess, so when entering the Teleportation Hall, he couldn't help but ask Yinsiluoda:

"What's wrong? Is there some situation?"

"A settlement that is semi-public among us has been attacked by the Northland Alliance; that place was originally one of the goals of our trip."

Yinsiluoda's voice trembled slightly, not out of fear that he might also meet with misfortune, but out of anger at the Northland Alliance's repeated attacks.

For some reason, starting from last month, the Northland Alliance's intensity in tracking down Demon Descendants had been more than a little higher than usual; in just over a month, to his knowledge alone, two settlements had been attacked.

And as for those he didn't know about, who knew how many there were; this was unimaginable in the past.

It was precisely because of this extermination by the Northland Alliance that Yinsiluoda's circle felt a crisis—not just for themselves, but a crisis of survival for the Demon Descendant race.

That was why there were various decisions to expand the race, including reducing the observation time for candidates, providing an assimilation route that could be struck at any time, and so on.

In Yinsiluoda's eyes, from the moment Poson left with him, he was already considered one of them; if he agreed, he was a living member, and if he didn't, he would be a dead one.

That was why his attitude had been so friendly from beginning to end, as if treating him like family, because this was family!

……

"Go to Evereska first!"

"Evereska? Isn't that the Headquarters of the Northland Alliance? Aren't you afraid—"

Seeing that Yinsiluoda didn't seem to be joking, Poson became a bit nervous; he had just been told that a Demon Descendant settlement had been attacked by the Northland Alliance, and now they were going to run to the enemy's Headquarters—he didn't know what Yinsiluoda was planning.

To this, Yinsiluoda's explanation was—

"Evereska is the most important transit point for Demon Descendants to enter and exit various countries; for us, it is much safer there than in Taier'annuo."

"This—"

Poson once again witnessed the hidden power of the Demon Descendants, but he didn't believe that establishing a safe house under the noses of the Northland Alliance was something Yinsiluoda's small circle could achieve.

There must be communication and even consensus between this small circle and other Demon Descendant circles, otherwise such a public transit point could never exist.

And this also meant that there might be another, more powerful force above them maintaining all of this.

"Is this the Reality of the world?"

For a moment, Poson was lost again; he was just a most ordinary Elite Mage from Siluwende, and most of his past experiences were the happy education led by Yierlan. How much of the world's Reality could he, a Sluwende Elf, understand?

It was only after the war broke out that he learned from the resistance organization about the various stakes behind this war, among which the most confusing to him was the attitude toward Demon Descendants.

Admittedly, Siluwende had suffered huge trauma because of Demon Descendants in the past and present, but there had never been a clear statement on the inherent danger of the Demon Descendants themselves.

It was as if they had become hostile for no reason; as for bloodline, as someone from the bottom, Poson actually didn't have much feeling about these things. If bloodline determined everything, why hadn't he, as a Gold Elf, become part of the ruling class?

As the only two countries in the North composed almost purely of Gold Elves, Siluwende and Yierfalang must have a large number of Gold Elf commoners—

Their status was not necessarily higher than that of Wood Elf or Moon Elf commoners in other countries, and their abilities were not necessarily stronger than those of Wood Elves or Moon Elves.

If one used bloodline theory to explain it, how should this situation be explained?

Therefore, in Poson's view, the so-called bloodline theory was simply fabricated by the High Elves to enslave the lower classes for their own eternal rule!

There had never been any superiority or inferiority of bloodline; there was only the oppression of the lower classes by the upper classes!

From this perspective, Demon Descendants represented a brand-new force, and it was inevitable that they would impact the existing ruling order. Could this be the fundamental reason why Demon Descendants must die?

Thinking this way, Poson felt heavier and heavier in his heart, because he, who had no way to rise, was also a target of oppression by the upper classes; he instinctively felt that such an order was not good, but if he were in a high position, he was afraid he would make the same choice.

"It really is a Reality that is disgusting!"

……

Evereska.

The appearance of two strange Elves did not attract much attention, even if they were from Siluwende; after experiencing the safe house disguise again, Poson and Yinsiluoda successfully cleared their identities.

"Do we have to re-disguise every time we go to a country?" Poson asked with some curiosity.

If that were the case, then the process of Demon Descendants traveling would be truly incomparably cumbersome!

To this, Yinsiluoda gave an affirmative answer, "Not only do we have to re-disguise before going to each country, but when restoring to our original state, we also need to restore them one by one in the corresponding countries, rather than returning directly to our original appearance."

"Why is that?"

"You have also participated in the repair of the Mythallar in Terminos; don't you know that the Mythallar records the characteristics of every entrant? If we were normal Elves, a general disguise would be enough, but for Demon Descendants, the change in Fate Trajectory is the top priority."

Yinsiluoda's calm answer made Poson feel a bit stifled; this kind of life was not what he wanted, or rather, no Elf with normal thinking would want to live this kind of hiding life like a rat.
