Chapter 694

The sky gradually darkened.

By the time Shien finished dealing with all matters related to the Sand Scale Tribe, the streets were already shrouded in darkness.

To Shien's surprise, there was not a single house in the Succubus City that had any lights.

This was what Liel said at the side.

"The night is the domain of the Supreme of Demons, Her Highness Cela, so we Demons don't choose to use lights to dispel the darkness at night. Moonlight is enough."

If this had happened in any other city in the human world, it would probably have caused a certain degree of inconvenience.

However, there was no such inconvenience in the Demon Realm.

Firstly, the moonlight in the Demon Realm was indeed very bright. Even with the help of moonlight, it was not a problem to live normally at night.

Secondly, the night vision of the Demon Race was much stronger than that of the Human Race. Furthermore, both of them were quite powerful, so the mere darkness wouldn't affect them too much.

Therefore, in the Demon Realm, no matter which city it was, there were no lights.

Moreover, the moon in the Demon Realm would not be obscured. It would rise no matter which night it was, just that it was waxing and waning.

This could be considered a unique culture of the Demons, right?

"Alright."

After understanding this, Shien did not mind anymore.

With [External Destiny] in hand, he would not be troubled by the darkness.

Rather, with [External Destiny]'s enhanced senses, not only did it give Shien very good night vision, but even if he lost his sight, he could still perceive the situation around him through other senses.

The lack of lights at night did not hinder Shien at all.

Therefore, Shien did not mind too much and headed towards the Succubus Castle with Liel.

Along the way, Shien was still thinking about how he should ask Chafnie to give the Sand Scale Tribe residency in the Succubus City.

However, when Shien returned to the Succubus Castle, he saw an unexpected person before he could enter.

"Greekville?"

Liel also called out the person's name in surprise.

The person who came was Gray, whom she had met once before.

Gray was standing in front of the Succubus Castle's main entrance. He did not go near the castle, instead standing there as straight as a pen.

It looked as if it was waiting for someone.

That was the truth.

"You're back?"

Gray turned to Shien, his gaze stopping on Shien.

"You're looking for me?"

Shien raised a brow.

"That's right." Gray nodded and said straightforwardly, "Do you have time to talk?"

Gray had a kind smile on his face as he said that.

Obviously, this time, the other party wasn't here to cause trouble.

"Greekville" "Greekville?"

Liel asked with a frown.

"Gray" Gray glanced at Liel and said, "I just have some things I want to ask my kin who has come to the Realm of Demons and the Succubus City. I don't want to do anything to him."

Gray's words rendered Liel speechless.

The main thing was that Roland's explanation was impeccable, and Liel couldn't find any flaws in it.

She knew Gray had been in the Demon Realm for about 20 years, he must have a lot of things to know.

Liel more or less remembered something about Gray. In the end, she left without a word, leaving the stage to Sean and Gray.

Shien looked at the mysterious human powerhouse, his thoughts unknown.

Gray, on the other hand, suddenly said.

"How's Anci?"

When the words came out of Gray's mouth, Shien was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted.

"Anci?" Shien frowned, a little surprised and a little hesitant. "Are you talking about the king of Mithra Kingdom?"

"Should be." Gray smiled and said indifferently, "When I left, logically speaking, the throne could only have fallen into his hands. I also heard from Hart that he became the king of the Mithra Kingdom and had two beautiful daughters, but I haven't seen him for more than 20 years. I don't even know how he is doing."

Upon hearing this, Sean understood.

"You're old friends with the king?"

This was the only possibility that Shien could think of.

However, it turned out that his thoughts were still too gentle.

"How should I put it?" Gray felt a little nostalgic and said something shocking, "Strictly speaking, he and I are half-brothers."

"What?!" Shien's eyes widened.

Brothers?

Half-brothers?

Gray and Anci?

Doesn't that mean …

"You … You are …?"

Shien looked at Gray in astonishment.

Gray pursed his lips and sighed. "My old surname is Mithra, Greekville Mithra, a former member of the Mithra Royal Family who abandoned the identity of a prince and the surname left by my ancestors more than 20 years ago and came to the Demon Realm."

"…"

Shien was silent.

He was completely speechless.

This mysterious human powerhouse who was recruited by the Taowu Clan and reached level 99 was actually a member of the Mithra Kingdom's royal family?

Or a former prince? A true descendant of the Hero?

F * ck!

"Don't be nervous, and don't look at me like that. I'm not here to claim kinship with you." Gray seemed to be amused by Shien's reaction. He laughed and said, "Like I said, I have abandoned my past identity. I'm just a former prince. Moreover, Anci and I are half-brothers, but Anci is the direct descendant of the royal family. I'm just a collateral descendant, the child of the former king's concubine. If I didn't have some talent, it would be impossible for me to get the identity of a prince."

Gray's words were spoken in an extremely calm and nonchalant manner.

It could be imagined that this identity had really become a thing of the past for him, right?

Of course, although Gray said these words in a very indifferent tone, Shien could still hear a lot of things from it.

For example …

"You can't be considered a little talent at all, right?" Shien said sincerely. "I thought Alidia was already the strongest human. Now it seems that you may be stronger than Alidia."

In terms of level, Gray was even higher than Aridia.

In terms of strength, Shien felt that Gray would not be weaker than Alidia.

No matter what, he was a true descendant of the Hero Mithra. Since this person was able to obtain the title of Prince by relying on his status as a collateral relative, it was easy to imagine that his talent and unique skills were definitely not inferior to Alidia's.

And Alidia was already regarded as a rare super genius. The deeds of this Graykville were probably even more amazing than Alidia's.

Such a person actually abandoned his identity and status, and because of the succubus, he lived in Succubus City for more than 20 years. It was simply shocking.

"I didn't know that there was someone like you in the Mithra royal family."

Shien expressed his most direct surprise.

Gray, however, was indifferent.

"This is normal." Gray said very calmly, "For the Mithra royal family, I am already a disgrace. I have betrayed the expectations of the country, betrayed the expectations of the royal family, and even betrayed my race. I am a sad, hateful, and pitiful person who shamelessly ran to become the succubus' pawn. Why would they take the initiative to mention me?"

Not to mention the people of the royal family, even the civilians did not mention such a prince anymore. One could imagine how many people had been disappointed by him and how many people felt betrayed.

Under such circumstances, it was understandable that the kingdom forbade the people from mentioning the existence of such a prince.

Now, he was probably completely forgotten by many people, and they were not willing to mention him again.

"I heard that you are the fiancé of the kingdom's treasure, right?"

Gray looked at Shien as if he was looking at a junior, and his eyes became a little kinder.

Shien could not stand this look and shrugged helplessly.

"Have you never seen Rosie?"

Shien took the initiative to bring up this topic.

"Of course not. When I came to the Demon Realm, Anxi had just gotten married. I did not have the chance to see his daughter." Gray said regretfully, "But I have heard a lot of rumors about that child. Hart also told me that her beauty is second only to Her Highness Succubus, and she is also an incredible genius. She has even been recognized by the Holy Sword left behind by the ancestors. She is much stronger than me. If possible, I really want to see her."

"Then why don't you go back and see?" Shien said without hesitation, "With your strength, it should not be difficult for you to return to the human world and return to the Mithra Kingdom, right?"

"… Indeed." Gray was silent for a moment, and then immediately said, "But what qualifications do I have?"

When Gray said those words, his eyes were filled with utter desolation.

However, although he was desolate, Gray did not feel regretful.

"Perhaps, from the moment I saw Her Highness Succubus, I was already a useless person?" Gray said self-deprecatingly, "In history, how many heroes have not been able to pass this hurdle? Even a few of the brave have become Her Highness Succubus' captives. I used to be very disdainful of this, until I met Her Highness Succubus, only then did I know that everything was not exaggerated."

"It is precisely because of this that I was so crazy at that time." Gray's voice seemed to be very far away, and he said sadly, "At that time, I thought that with my talent, my strength, I would be able to make Her Highness Succubus take a second look at me and get a chance to pursue her."

As the saying goes, youth is frivolous. At that time, Gray was indeed very high-spirited.

To be able to become a real prince with the identity of a collateral relative and be valued by the royal family, Gray at that time must have been first-class in appearance, talent, and ability, even the number one hero of the human race.

It was understandable that such a person would think that he could pursue Succubus, and even disregard everything for it.

Who would have thought …

"For more than 20 years, I did not even have the chance to speak more than a few words with Her Highness Succubus."

Gray's voice was full of vicissitudes.

"She didn't even want to look at me. Can you imagine how much of a blow that was to me?"

Hearing this, Shien looked at Gray with eyes full of sympathy.
