Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube

Chapter 1096 - 819: The Mysterious High Priest

To be honest, Liz felt somewhat grateful for the intentions of Ivy and the other person.

After all, regardless of Ivy and the other person’s starting point or reasons, they came for her and bore no malice—only goodwill.

Wanting to rescue herself from captivity was an undeniable fact.

Moreover, with such a devout and excited demeanor, Liz felt a bit apprehensive about their attitude, but at least compared to the other factions that schemed against her, these two from the Hidden Land were undoubtedly her ally.

However, hearing Ivy’s words, Liz still felt somewhat conflicted.

There was no help for it; she had always considered herself an ordinary, even somewhat humble, child, wandering like a stray before age 7, confined as a deep boudoir princess after age 7, and not being allowed to go out until she became a proper Swordsman at the age of 15, soon becoming Reiger’s Attendant, thus freeing herself from her princess identity.

And as she had said before, Liz didn’t really like her princess identity.

If possible, she would rather venture out with Reiger like she did while wandering outside with Grandma Mia, though life was harsh and unstable, it was free.

She yearned for that kind of life, that simple life; being a princess... to Liz, it was something out of her reach.

Yet, since leaving the palace and becoming Reiger’s Attendant, a variety of unimaginable things happened one after another.

She was not an orphan wandering outside but a princess of the Royal Family of the Kingdom of Ginas, the illegitimate daughter of the contemporary King, which was already absurd enough, yet even more absurd revelations followed.

A descendant of the Reinnaier lineage?

The bloodline of heroes?

The royal status from the Ancient Magic Civilization Period?

When did she become this extraordinary?

Regarding all these unveiled secrets and her true identity, Liz never really felt real.

Until her own Bloodline Awakening, the Sword of Moslo restored to its true form from the Ancient Magic Civilization Period, and she was exposed as not being the King’s daughter, all felt like a dream to Liz.

Now, the Hidden Land she had been searching for had appeared, and it was the repository for the flame left by the Ancient Magic Civilization, with Ivy and the other person coming to take her back, Liz honestly felt she was gradually unable to accept all this.

Liz glanced at Reiger beside her.

This was the most important person she had met in her life after separating from Grandma Mia.

When she was still a princess of the kingdom, he never treated her any differently, calm, serene, and natural in interaction, and after becoming his Attendant, he treated her warmly and attentively, never as a servant. Such a master, as Marilyn would put it, was a treasure-level existence.

Being with him, she felt long-lost peace, relaxation, freedom, and even attachment.

Now, someone intends to separate them, letting her be royalty?

Just like when she left Grandma Mia at the age of 7 and was taken away by King Hemulinp?

Thinking of this, Liz felt a strong sense of resistance.

Thus, Liz’s feelings were very complicated.

Gratitude, resentment, resistance... various emotions surged inside her, leaving her at a loss for words.

Until Reiger reached out his hand and patted her head.

"Don’t overthink it." Reiger’s voice came from very close, saying, "No matter what the Hidden Land is, or its relation to your lineage, it’s all past."

"You don’t need to bother with those, just care about what you value."

"So, ask about what you really want to know."

Upon hearing this, Liz looked up at Reiger.

In Liz’s eyes was Reiger’s ever serene and indifferent expression.

That look slightly calmed the complex emotions in Liz’s heart.

Then Liz turned to Ivy, took a deep breath, and asked the question she cared about the most.

"Have you heard the name Mia?"

That’s right.

Liz was not concerned about the identity of the hero Reinnaier, nor the royal status from the Ancient Magic Civilization, but her own origin.

Who was her mother?

If Hemulinp wasn’t her father, then who was?

And why had she been wandering outside with Grandma Mia since childhood?

Ultimately, what exactly happened around her? Why was Hemulinp’s perception altered? Why was he made to believe she was his illegitimate daughter and brought her into the palace?

Who did all this?

Was it Grandma Mia?

That was what Liz truly cared about.

As for the identity of Reinnaier, frankly, Liz didn’t really care.

She wanted to find the Hidden Land just to figure out her origin, nothing else mattered.

Therefore, Liz stopped thinking about the Reinnaier lineage, looking at Ivy with some expectation, hoping she would provide an answer.

Unfortunately, she was disappointed.

"Mia?"

Ivy replied, looking perplexed.

"Haven’t heard of that name, who is that?"
