As for Edwina, since the delegation from the Holy Empire was also scheduled to leave the Sky Island tomorrow, she was bidding farewell to her sister, Frederica, at the embassy over there.
Not many people knew about the demise of the Abyssal Tide due to the destruction of the Demon Island by Violet and others. Besides the avians and the Feathered Emperor who were present at the time, as well as high-ranking officials like Estila, only Edwina and Felina, who had relatively close private relationships with the priestess, were aware of it.
At Violet’s request, the Feathered Emperor Estini also deliberately blocked this news to avoid unnecessary trouble for someone due to excessive fame.
In addition, there was another relatively troublesome issue.
During the battle against the Goddess of Withering, in order to prevent the Sky City from being completely destroyed by the death fog, Violet used a 10th-order magic, 【Radiance of the Holy Light】, to protect the city. This resulted in many civilians being contaminated by the information flow of high-level magic at close range and seeing the divine shadows in the sky.
Although no one knew it was actually Violet, it was said that a certain organization called the Radiant Church had recently emerged in the Sky City. Most of its members were residents of the Feather City who were supposed to have died in that disaster but were saved by a sudden miracle.
Obviously, these were people who had witnessed the brilliance of the 10th-order magic up close.
They insisted that the miraculous light from months ago was not brought down by the Sky God or the so-called Goddess of Light as claimed by the Church of the Goddess, but proposed a name they seemed to vaguely perceive, the God of Radiance. They even made statues based on the original divine shadows and worshipped them.
So, it was quite embarrassing...
Violet did have the intention to experiment with the power of belief, but it was fine in the Abyssal World. After all, she couldn’t see what was happening over there. But here, where she currently resided, if a large group of believers were to suddenly arise, shouting and screaming upon seeing the priestess, it would be extremely annoying.
Moreover, the name God of Radiance had too high a resemblance to the Goddess of Light worshipped by the Church, so if things went wrong, they might even be criticized as a cult, causing various troubles.
In the end, Edwina by her side, this devout follower from the Holy Empire, had long recognized the true face of the so-called God of Radiance. Although the knight lady probably wouldn’t betray her or anything...

Oh, just thinking about it made her scalp tingle with embarrassment.
This was also one of the reasons why Violet decided to quickly run away and leave this cursed place.
Pushing open the room door, it was dimly lit inside.
In order to foster the independence of the little dragon girl, Violet occasionally went out without bringing her along, acting alone. Meanwhile, her Dragon girl found new ways to pass the time besides sleeping.
Inside the training pet space, the second resident, her junior, or in some sense, her sister, Snow Wing, was being taught combat by her.
Although Snow Wing had a high level of LV90 and decent intelligence since Violet created her, she didn’t have many combat skills. After all, she was completely detached from the game system, a brand new special life form starting from scratch.
The Abyssal World might not be safe, and Violet couldn’t always stay by Snow Wing’s side. It was essential for her to master combat and self-defense skills. Xiao Guang volunteered to take on the task of training her.
Violet was actually quite looking forward to the future of this little one, after all, she was a life she had created with her own hands.
It was likely that the two sisters were also getting along harmoniously in the pet space.
....................................
After another two days, Violet’s group bid farewell to Sethlin, Sigrid, and Estila, who had come to see them off, and left Sky Island on a Flying Falcon.
There weren’t many companions. Besides Violet and her pet, there were only Leila and Rene, who decided to continue following the priestess, Edwina who insisted on tagging along, and Theresa, who had become a blessed of the Goddess of Life.
Because of Edwina, who couldn’t fly, and now with Theresa, who also couldn’t fly, a mount became very necessary. With their small number, they could directly ride the Flying Falcon to the nearest floating island equipped with a Transference Gate and swiftly travel north via teleportation.
Although the Invisible Space Teleportation Gate could directly lead to the capital of the Human United Kingdom, the Courage City, it was a small teleportation gate and bound to the user. Except for the little dragon girl who could cleverly follow through summoning, others couldn’t use it.
So, they could only travel the old-fashioned way.
Anyway, Violet wasn’t in a hurry to do anything, and besides, the speed of the flying mount was much faster than land creatures, and they didn’t need to trek long distances like before.
And so, the group of six spent several days safely leaving the borders of the Azure Sky Kingdom, crossing the still-recovering southern region from the Abyssal invasion, passing through the Northern Kingdom of Criv, and returning to the southern border of the Human United Kingdom to the city of Horizon once again.
After that, they continued to travel through the airspace, taking about another week to cross the vast territory of the Human United Kingdom, and arrived at the first largest city in the north, the Demon Suppression City, which also guards the hub between the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains.
The name sounded quite familiar and was full of hostility, which was quite in line with the Human United Kingdom’s consistent attitude towards outsiders.
Although their purpose was to travel to the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains and investigate the matters possibly related to the demon god Olivia, Violet, unfamiliar with the place, didn’t intend to fly straight in. Instead, she planned to stay in the Demon Suppression City for a while, gather some information, and then make decisions.
Moreover, the spark of the incident, the disappearance of the Moon Shadow offsprings rumored to have received the blessing of the demon god, seemed to have occurred in the vicinity of the Demon Suppression City. This was a valuable lead worth investigating.
Guiding the falcon that had traveled a long distance to gradually descend into the southern outskirts forest of the Demon Suppression City, Violet fed it some food and water, and cast an automatic counterattack spell to ensure its safety before letting it return.
Although Siglind said it was a gift for them, something to use for transportation, the Flying Falcons were native magical beasts of the Azure Sky Kingdom and weren’t accustomed to the climate and environment here. It would be quite troublesome to accommodate such a large creature, so it was better to let it fly back on its own.
Standing firmly on the ground, gazing at the tall city walls and familiar architectural style in the distance, even Violet couldn’t help but feel emotional.
“I didn’t expect to come full circle and return to the Human United Kingdom. Let’s enter the city first.”
On this trip to the north, Violet didn’t plan to get too involved with the official affairs of the Human United Kingdom for now. Although she intended to greet Lilya, who was the queen, she didn’t specify what she was going to do exactly.
Violet and Lilya were good friends, but they were not partners of the Human United Kingdom. What to do next and from what standpoint to approach it would still depend on the situation.
It was mid-afternoon when the group of six arrived at the queue outside the south gate.
There weren’t many people waiting here, but the inspection seemed exceptionally strict. Every person entering the city underwent a comprehensive search, which took a considerable amount of time, and there were even female soldiers and certain special instruments specifically for inspecting women.
