With her feet firmly planted on the ground, Violet looked around. This place existed between the virtual and the real, a vast white expanse with nothing but the earth beneath her feet.

 

In feeling, it was somewhat similar to the scenery in a pet space, but even more surreal—there, there wasn’t even a real ground, and creatures walked directly in the void.

 

According to Edith, the Guardian’s explanation, the third level of the prison wasn’t a separate node space. Instead, the ingenious designer had overlaid countless parallel nodes on the same point through unique means.

 

In simpler terms, the largest teleportation node connected numerous spaces like this—empty and duplicated, isolated from each other, but fundamentally part of the same spatial area.

 

There were no living beings here, no natural phenomena like wind, rain, or sunshine, and not even magical elements appeared. Those criminals with special statuses would be confined to individual spaces, where they silently died in solitude.

 

It was impossible for outsiders to enter the corresponding prisoner’s space without special coordinates.

 

It was said that this concept was inspired by the designer from the limitless wilderness beyond the world.

 

Violet felt it for herself, indeed, this place was “hollow” in every sense. Even the ground she stepped on gave her an inexplicable sense of illusion, devoid of any earth element fluctuations.

 

Here, it might not be a physical space in the truest sense, but a realm of consciousness, or a spiritual world. Perhaps the true essence of everyone’s being lingered somewhere in this space, taking on a special form.

 

The main reason was that Violet discovered, no matter how they moved, the distance between her and Xiao Guang, as sensed through the contract, remained unchanged.

 

Both tangible and intangible, this design was indeed quite intriguing.

 

“Master, what do we do next?”

 

Seeing a certain black-haired girl pacing back and forth in place, apparently uncertain about something, Miss Dragon couldn’t help but ask.

 

“No need to worry, just verifying some speculations. We’re good now. Next, we’ll go directly to find our target.”

 

Before entering, Edith provided Violet and the others with the coordinates of Ben Melchior’s location, and after their battle, Rebecca, who rushed into the third level, was likely here as well.

 

Although the ancestors of the royal family claimed that it was almost impossible for anyone to accurately locate a specific prison space without coordinates, nothing is absolute. Rebecca and Ben couldn’t be completely ignorant of the situation here. If she dared to come, she must have some reliance.

 

Moreover, Violet also didn’t quite understand why only she saw Rebecca’s past memories when entering the space.

 

At least, from the looks of Xiao Guang, she definitely didn’t feel anything.

 

Violet took out the “coordinates” given by Edith—a token engraved with numbers, displaying a straightforward directional indicator.

 

This served as the medium to enter a specific space and also as the anchor to find corresponding items here.

 

Ben also had a token like this on him, for the 【Sin Wardens】 to locate him.

 

Of course, the Second Prince could choose to discard it, but then, he would likely starve or thirst to death here within a few days.

 

It’s strange, though—if this place is truly, as Violet envisions, a purely spiritual space, what’s the point of eating?

 

“Let’s go.”

 

Following the guidance of the coordinates, the two girls began to move.

 

Have to admit, the design here is indeed quite magical. Even though I wandered aimlessly for a while, with no apparent changes around, following the directional indicator on the token for a few minutes, and in most cases, it felt like I was just spinning in place, but suddenly, after taking a certain step, something new abruptly appeared.

 

It was a single-story wooden house built on the boundless land.

 

Approximately a few dozen square meters, with a stone pavilion outside and two people inside—a man and a woman. The man sat sipping a liquid in his cup, while the woman sat on the side.

 

Because there was no obstruction, when Violet saw them, the man and woman also noticed her and Xiao Guang.

 

The girl with dark blue long hair and wearing a robe immediately stood up, while the man—Ben Melchior—only gave Miss Priestess a slightly surprised look, made no movement, and even raised the cup in his hand to gesture from a distance.

 

Violet had no reaction, but the little dragon girl behind her suddenly spoke in a slightly surprised tone.

 

“Master! That woman seems to be the Blue Dragon I sensed before!”

 

“Ah.”

 

Violet, who had already anticipated this, reacted quite calmly, just nodded lightly and accelerated her pace.

 

This woman looks different from Rebecca.

 

Although they both have dark blue long hair and a similar figure, her facial features and temperament are noticeably more noble and cold compared to the guild’s receptionist, like an iceberg snow lotus that cannot be approached.

 

Yes, in that memory, Rebecca and the Frost Blue Dragon named Alexia formed a symbiotic relationship, meaning that there should be two souls residing in this body, corresponding to the human and dragon forms.

 

Now, it seems to be the form more inclined towards the 【Frost and Arcane Dragon】 Alexia.

 

This situation is more like two intertwined consciousnesses being born simultaneously within a single body.

 

Of course, this is just Violet’s personal speculation based on the memories she saw earlier. The actual situation remains to be seen.

 

Alexia didn’t pay much attention to Violet. Perhaps because of the special nature of this space, when Xiao Guang suddenly sensed the dragon aura from the other side, this resurrected dragon also realized the extraordinary origin of the golden-haired dragon girl.

 

Although the two had met at the Adventurer’s Guild, at this moment, they silently observed each other without speaking.

 

“Welcome, welcome. Honestly, I’ve imagined many people who would be my ancestor Edith, my dear Princess Lilya, or even a certain legendary adventurer from the guild… But never did I expect it to be you—the mysterious Miss Violet.”

 

Ben swayed the cup filled with translucent purple gem-like liquid, his face still maintaining the usual humble smile.

 

“Did I disappoint you by coming first?”

 

The anticipated battle didn’t happen, so…

 

Without hesitation, sitting down at the stone pavilion table, Violet glanced at the exquisite pastries and the wine jug in front of her. She casually picked up a visually appealing piece and took a bite.

 

Tender and fragrant, seems like he enjoys the finer things in life.

 

Violet didn’t believe that the 【Sin Wardens】 would provide Ben with these things. Most likely, he deliberately had Rebecca bring them, showing off.

 

“Hehe, how could it be? Rather, it seems that there is quite a fate between us. When I first saw you, I felt that Miss Violet had an extraordinary temperament, a transcendent elegance. Now, it seems that it’s absolutely true.”

 

Ben smiled and casually asked.

 

“But I have one question… What exactly attracted you to the princess? Or what kind of reward did her promise, allowing Miss Violet, who shows no false courtesy towards me, to willingly join her side?”
