Chapter 1, this is my escape route

Ophelia stood under the night sky, took a deep breath, joyfully spread her arms and lifted her head, and let out a delighted cheer towards the full moon: "Wryyyyyyyyy ! ! "

"Call me the warden. It has been two years since I was transferred here from the Inquisition, and you still cannot remember the rules?" The young man stood up leisurely and brushed the dust off his trousers

After a struggle within her heart, she raised her face to meet Aiden's gaze, channeling her energy to her dantian, concentrating her strength at the tip of her tongue, ready to utter words that would resonate with conviction

"Why... how did you find out that I escaped?" Ophelia stared wide-eyed in disbelief

Ophelia then realized that there was someone standing behind her. She turned her head slightly and saw a petite girl standing behind her, with a slender left hand steadily gripping a deadly firearm that was completely incongruous with her appearance, while the other hand held a curved dagger. Her eyes were as still as a pool of stagnant water, reflecting no emotions or colors.

This is impossible

Very well, then let us conduct one final inspection of the cells before concluding our work

Aiden stared at her for quite a while, finally rolling his eyes and letting out a sigh. He raised his hand and pointed to the hole she had dug: "You can go in by yourself, don't waste time."

She instinctively closed her eyes for a moment, and when she opened them again, she saw a young man in uniform kneeling on the ground, holding a camera directed at her under the moonlight

Ah, this is the harmony outside the prison - the full moon, this is the air of freedom beyond the prison

To break out from the hands of three female prisoners who are no less formidable than oneself, while also dealing with the man who once defeated one's peak self, the likelihood of success is exceedingly slim

"So, what is your choice, vampire? Will you obediently return to your cell..." Aiden asked Ophelia, "or are you prepared to fight us?"

Are you not ... ... Aivansha?

"Warden, this is the last escapee of the day," reported the composed necromancer, adjusting the glasses on the bridge of his nose as he calmly informed Aiden

However, no one responded to her, and in the end, it was Aiden who spoke up: "Don't waste your efforts; each of them has voluntarily signed a demon contract with me. Once someone attempts to escape, I can execute her on the spot with just a flick of my finger. On the contrary, if they help me with my tasks, I can guarantee their treatment in prison."

"Of course, I am here specifically to take you back, as that is my job. Ophelia, you still have ninety-eight years left on your sentence," Aiden replied with an air of certainty.

"Then why did you wait until now to catch me?" Upon realizing that her efforts over the past two years had all been in vain, Ophelia felt a bit overwhelmed.

No freedom, better dead! Damn humanity, do not underestimate the spirit of the bloodline prince!

You! You you you you you... ... Aiden www.hetushucom.com!? '' Ophelia screamed in terror

Ophelia was dumbfounded

Aiden chuckled: "Well, actually, we knew about your escape plan long before, back when you first started secretly digging this tunnel under the toilet in your room two years ago. We have been monitoring your digging progress all along."

"As you command, Warden." The enchanting witch, adorned with a wide-brimmed wizard hat, gracefully bowed and then waved her wand to begin casting a spell

"I made it through! Hahaha, I finally broke through, and I escaped!" A pale-faced woman dug through the tunnel, desperately crawling out of the dirt, completely disregarding the prison uniform that was covered in mud. "Aiden, you idiot, do you really think you can keep me locked up? This is my escape route. When it comes to wits, you still can't outsmart me, Ophelia!"

As Ophelia disappeared at the entrance, Aiden turned to the side and instructed Deli: "Fill this tunnel and add a seal."

With a sharp crack, a blinding flash of light pierced Ophelia's eyes, causing her pain

In the late night, Silver City, Rose Iron Prison

In an instant, the fear rooted deep within Ophelia's memory was awakened. It was this man who had single-handedly captured her and thrown her into this grim and terrifying rose iron prison.

"I just came out to enjoy the moon and will go back soon, why threaten me like this!" Ophelia's expression changed instantly, adopting a look of pitiful innocence.

"You haven't even escaped far, and yet there's such a commotion, as if you're afraid I won't be able to find you?" A lazy male voice suddenly came from behind her, "You escape artists really are getting worse with each generation."

"If you dare to make a move, after I catch you this time, I will tie you to a cross, stuff your mouth full of garlic, and then throw you out to bask in the sun for a day," Aiden suddenly added.

Ophelia was startled, her whole body shivering, and she hurriedly turned around

Having broken free from the sealing barrier of the Rose Iron Prison, the power belonging to the Night's Kin once again filled her entire being

"Please use your brain, will you? You are a vampire and do not need to use the restroom, yet you still spend over two hours in the stall every day. Are you secretly digging a tunnel or having a midnight snack in there? How could we not be suspicious of you?" Aiden shrugged, "Every day when you take the opportunity to go outside and dispose of the excavated rubble, we check your room to see how far your tunnel has been dug."

... ...

Aivansha did not speak, and as a result, Aiden answered for her: "I selected some capable individuals from among the criminals and secured a certain degree of clemency for them. In exchange, they assist me in maintaining order in this prison."

"Bastard, I want to kill you!" Ophelia was filled with a mix of shame and anger, and a powerful intent to kill erupted from her crimson eyes

First of all, it is certainly to help you remember. Secondly, it is for the sake of enjoyment and amusement. Aiden displayed a sly smile on his face as he waved the camera in his hand towards Ophelia, saying, "Look, the dignified prince of the bloodline is digging in the ground like a groundhog, and then getting covered in dirt all over, what a spectacular sight!"

In the small grove located one hundred meters outside the prison, a slender, pale hand suddenly broke through the soil and reached out from the ground

Oh? The escape plan has already been exposed, do you still want to force your way out?" Aiden narrowed his eyes slightly, "Don't forget who captured you.

Ophelia was taken aback; she recognized the girl—"The Corrupted Blooded Ivansha," inmate number 3201, a top-tier criminal marked as red in danger level, who had once been the number one genius assassin in the underworld, arrested and imprisoned for murder

Aivansha nodded knowingly, lifted her foot, and kicked Ophelia right in the backside, sending her directly into the pit.

You certainly took your time coming out, I have been waiting for you for quite a while. The young man greeted her with a calm expression.

However, yielding to the tyranny of this man is no different from throwing the dignity of being a bloodline prince into a cesspool. How could she swallow the indignation of giving up the freedom that is within reach and becoming a prisoner in the human dungeon?

Oh... Ophelia shrank her neck, slowly moved to the entrance, and reluctantly began to burrow inside

Witch Dali, Necromancer Asenna, and a total of three female prisoners including Aivansa, are all notorious red alert level dangerous criminals in the Rose Iron Prison

At the moment of her hesitation, a large-caliber handgun was silently pressed against Ophelia's head from behind

How could you, you rascal, be here

What are you doing here? Why are you helping this man? Ophelia felt a bit confused

I, I..." Ophelia suddenly lost her composure

More figures appeared in the woods, and Ophelia looked around, suddenly feeling a chill run down her spine

Hurry up, if you don't get in soon, I'll pour holy water in there!" Aiden urged with a frown, while simultaneously making a gesture towards Ivansha.

Forcing a breakthrough indeed feels too forced; it is better to take a step back and deliberate for a longer term. As long as the green mountains remain, one need not fear the absence of firewood. This is purely based on long-term strategic considerations and certainly not because she is afraid

"Damn it, why are you all being this man's lackeys? Are you really willing to spend your entire lives in this prison?" Ophelia shouted, "If you have even a shred of pride as strong individuals, then join me in killing this man and reclaiming our freedom together!"

Aiden methodically picked up the military cap that matched the uniform and placed it on his head, leading the female prisoners in the direction of the prison

Prince Ofelia of the Blood Clan, one of the top criminals closely monitored by the Rose Iron Prison, has secretly dug for a full two years under the condition of sealed powers, and finally today has been able to see the light of day ...! ... Oh no, the light of the moon!
