The crowd fell silent.
Angel also followed in silence.
"When you mentioned the Dante Clan earlier, I even thought you were rambling. Because according to the intelligence we obtained from the Abyssal Natives, they mentioned various tribes, including the Notting Tribe you just spoke about, but never mentioned the Dante Clan," the Black Earl’s voice echoed in the minds of everyone.
"So, does the Dante Clan really exist?" Kaier muttered in the Mind Ribbon.
Actually, according to Angel’s previous conversation with the horned Half-Blood Demon, it was already clear that the Dante Clan truly existed. The reason Kaier still grumbled was purely because, in his view, this matter was incredibly bizarre.
The Black Earl is a figure at the pinnacle of the Wizards’ Realm, his intelligence inevitably being the most comprehensive. Even the Black Earl didn’t know about the Dante Clan, so how did Angel know?
Moreover, the horned Half-Blood Demon opposite them was precisely from the Dante Clan.
"They exist." Angel also sensed that the crowd harbored some doubts in their hearts and explained, "I had brief contact with a member of the Dante Clan... Before today, I didn’t know the Dante Clan had been out of sight for many years either."
"Have you finished your conversation? Are you wondering what questions to ask me, or are you contemplating how to deceive me?" At this point, the voice of the horned Half-Blood Demon reached everyone’s ears.
Clearly, the horned Half-Blood Demon also knew they were communicating inside the Mind Ribbon. He just didn’t know what they were saying.
Angel glanced at the silent crowd, sighed softly, and said, "We were discussing matters about the Dante Clan earlier, just encountered a slight... issue."
"A slight issue?" the horned Half-Blood Demon questioned.
"I found out that none of my companions have ever heard of the Dante Clan," Angel shrugged.
"The Dante Clan is of noble lineage; it’s normal they haven’t heard of it," the horned Half-Blood Demon didn’t see this as an issue.
Angel pondered for a moment, deciding to start from the basics, "Perhaps you aren’t aware of the current situation. Presently, humans in the Abyss have engaged in deep collaboration with indigenous peoples of various major tribes, and even jointly established many Stronghold Cities, with designated indigenous residential areas within."
"Do you understand what this means? It means the interaction between humans and the indigenous peoples has reached a very deep level."
"Among my companions is someone extremely well-informed. According to him, humans have learned a lot about various tribes from the indigenous people in the Stronghold Cities, including the Neya Tribe and Notting Tribe I mentioned before, yet the Dante Clan isn’t among them."
Angel stopped at this point, quietly observing the horned Half-Blood Demon in front of him.
Even if the horned Half-Blood Demon was slow, he understood Angel’s implication.
"You mean to say the Dante Clan... no longer exists?" the horned Half-Blood Demon restrained his surging emotions and whispered.
"Perhaps they just hid deeper," Vay murmured lowly from the side.
The horned Half-Blood Demon glanced at Vay, then turned to Angel and asked, "Is what he said possible?"
"I don’t know."
The horned Half-Blood Demon appeared somewhat impatient, speaking emotionally for the first time, "I just asked if it’s possible. You just need to answer yes or no."
Angel: "I don’t know much about the Dante Clan. According to the intelligence I have gathered, it’s still insufficient to answer your question, so all I can say is, I don’t know."
Angel also knew that his response would undoubtedly sound like an evasion. But it was indeed the truth because he only knew of one member of the Dante Clan... Oh, no, make that two now.
"Then what can you tell me? Your companions don’t know about the Dante Clan, so how do you know?" The horned Half-Blood Demon had already adopted a questioning tone, indicating his emotions were beginning to surface.
The only good thing was that even if his emotions surfaced, he remained under control, never crossing the line, allowing him to maintain his rationality.
This also showed that he was genuinely different from other undead.
Even Mandhela, the undead redeemed by Angel, might fall again in emotional upheaval, yet the horned Half-Blood Demon could maintain calm.
This was indeed a matter worth exploring.
Perhaps as he said, today’s wizards are indeed behind the times in undead research compared to the Naraku City of tens of thousands of years ago?
While his thoughts wandered elsewhere, Angel didn’t forget to respond to the furious Half-Blood Demon opposite him.
"Because I’ve met a member of the Dante Clan."
With just this sentence, the horned Half-Blood Demon’s emotions subsided somewhat: "You’ve seen my clan’s descendants? Is he still alive?"
Angel nodded, "Rest assured, he’s alive. And he’s doing well."
The horned Half-Blood Demon’s anger decreased by half; he’d always assumed the Dante Clan no longer existed, but as long as descendants survived, it proved the Dante Clan wasn’t extinct.
"Tell me about his situation," the horned Half-Blood Demon asked this not out of genuine curiosity, but to confirm if Angel was speaking the truth.
Just like Angel’s previous description of the Notting Tribe, those details couldn’t be faked.
"I don’t know much, and regarding this individual..." Angel hesitated repeatedly and ultimately didn’t speak.
"Why did you stop, is it because he also fell?" the horned Half-Blood Demon’s tone heightened again.
"Probably not."
"Then why won’t you continue?"
Angel stayed silent.
Now, not only did the horned Half-Blood Demon feel strange, but others also looked at Angel perplexedly. What was wrong with the Dante Clan member Angel encountered that kept him from speaking?
Feeling the curious stares all around, Angel inwardly had a bitter smile, it’s not that he refused to speak, but the only Dante Clan member he knew was...
It was Master Ye!
With a Half-Blood Demon’s body, breaking through the Legend boundary, Master Ye!
Master Ye played a crucial role in the Lassudral battle, with various forces probing his situation. This included not only the Frost Moon Alliance but also demon forces and the Demon God...
Yet none of them discovered any information.
