Neo spoke aloud this time.
He saw no point in using telepathy since Velkaria was practically shouting like a rooster in the morning.
’But… but she feels weak.’
"She is holding back her presence.
"This is an academy with Awakeners and Mythic Demigods.
"They would suffer damage if the Exalted Demigods like her in the academy weren’t holding back their auras."
Velkaria turned back to Charlotte.
Her voice took a submissive tone.
’I apologize for my earlier outburst.’
’I have a mental condition that makes me stupid.’
’Please don’t take offense to my words.’
"Uhh…."
Charlotte had no words.
She was stunned, as she processed the strange apology.
She had expected Neo to hide the Void Entity, since anyone related to Void Entities could be executed.
Neo did the opposite, and it seemed the Void Entity was not a normal Void Entity, judging by its powerful Void affinity.
"It’s an Angel," Neo said.
’Shut up, bitch! Are you trying to get me killed!?’
The eye glared at Neo before looking at Charlotte.
’Hahaha, he is joking. Please don’t believe him.’
"The Angel of an Outer God, to be exact," Neo said, ignoring Velkaria.
Velkaria turned her eye toward Neo, her gaze narrowing.
’I hate you, asshole.’
The Angel gave up trying to give excuses and dipped into the Shadow Space.
The shadows rippled slightly before settling.
If the Angel was going to get killed, it saw no point in protesting and decided to rest until then.
"…"
Charlotte closed her eyes and massaged them, exhaling softly.
The scent of herbal tea lingered in the air as she reopened her eyes, fixing Neo with a stern look.
"Housing an Angel of an Outer God.
"Even I can’t save you from being executed for this.
"So why reveal it to me? I was planning to overlook it, since I thought it was a normal Void Entity," Charlotte questioned.
"I’m preparing a witness."
"For what?"
Instead of answering, Neo explained something else.
"I came out of the Shadow World. Everything there was made of shadow elementals. Everything."
"Are you trying to say…."
"Yes, the Angel is a Shadow."
"It seemed real to me, not a Shadow."
"That’s because it came from a 100% synchro Shadow World."
"What!?"
Charlotte’s eyes widened.
It was Neo’s first time seeing her surprised.
"A 100% Synchro Shadow World? Why did the Shadow Supreme send you to a place like that?
"No, forget that.
"Tell me, where did you two go? Past, present, future, or was it another world’s Shadow World?" she demanded, leaning forward, her hands pressing into the desk.
"…."
Neo remained silent.
Charlotte stared at him hard before she sighed again and sank back into her chair.
The worn leather creaked slightly under her weight.
