Fewer than ten people survived that battle.

 Professor Ryan Hawkes was one of the survivors, but he also lost an eye in the battle.

 He reached out and touched his right eye, which was covered by a black eye patch, and felt a dull ache return to his eye, which had been healed for many years.

 The defeat in the Ghost Bull Tribe's defense battle was a major blow to the newly formed alliance.

 The Zeng people, in particular, faced skepticism from all other ethnic groups.

 "Omondo Zacanias, I wish I could tear him apart and devour him alive!"

 Professor Hax let out a bitter sigh.

 At this moment, a student from the House of Nobles suddenly raised his hand and asked, "Professor, since Chief Ghost Bull is a traitor, has he not been captured yet?"

 Professor Hax said with a grim face, "I can only say that he was caught before. Alright, that's all for today."

 This concludes the lesson. Afterwards, each of you should choose a historically significant traitor and write a short, evaluative essay, to be submitted before the next class.

 The classroom atmosphere, which had just become serious following Professor Hawkes's lecture, was, in another sense...

 This time it became serious

 "Jingle Bell."

 The bell rang on time to signal the end of get out of class.

 Professor Hax dragged his slightly heavy steps and limped out of the classroom.

 The students immediately erupted in a commotion.

 Rose turned and asked, "Dark, what does the professor mean by saying he's been caught before?"

 Dark's eyelashes drooped slightly as he spoke, "He probably means he's escaped from prison now."

 He couldn't help but recall the war criminals mentioned in the Daily of the Great Sage who had escaped from Basdia prison.

 It can't be that much of a coincidence, can it?

 Diana exclaimed in surprise, "That wicked fellow, he really escaped?"

 Dark said casually, "I don't know. But according to Professor Harker, Omondo..."

 "Even if Zacanias were alive today, he'd be an old man with crooked teeth by now. There's no need to be too afraid."

 Diana: "I'm not afraid at all!"

 Dak smiled, picked up his backpack and said, "Let's go to the library."

 He already has an idea for today's History of Magic assignment.

 The escaped war criminal who occupied the entire page of the weekend's *Great Sage Daily* was also...

 A traitor!

 He planned to check relevant newspapers and magazines, research the traitor's information, and write a related evaluation.

 Olivia Copernicus, that was her name.

 It is said that he is a half-demon born into the human society.

 Compared to the inexplicably betrayed Alliance by sacrificing his entire tribe as a blood sacrifice, the Demon Chieftain...

 Mundo Zacanias, Olivia Copernicus, on the surface had ample reason, after all, her

 There is also a small portion of demon blood in its bloodline.

 Among the factors that attracted Dark, there was also the element of their surname.

Chapter 260 Darkdemon's Doubts Growing

 Nicolaus Copernicus was a Polish astronomer, mathematician, doctor of canon law, and priest during the Renaissance. He was also the founder of the heliocentric theory and pioneered modern astronomy.

 Of course, he is not a person from this world.

 Dach only paid a little more attention to Olivia Copernicus because of the familiar surname.

 Professor Hax had just assigned a research project on traitors, and that's when he remembered her.

 That issue of the *Daily Wise Man* featured an arrest warrant for Olivia Copernicus, but...

 More than ten years ago.

 But since she can be easily recognized, her appearance shouldn't have changed much over the past ten years.

 It has a name, an appearance, and the date the arrest warrant was issued.

 The scope of the data search was instantly narrowed down to an acceptable level.

 After Dark, Diana, and Rose arrived at the library, they spent about two hours searching for...

 There was a thick stack of documents.

 These include newspapers, magazines, and related historical documents.

 Olivia is not well-known among the "traitors".

 After all, her betrayal was fundamentally similar to that of traitors like Chief Omondo Zacanias.

 They are not quite the same.

 There were no typical examples of betrayal.

 However, simply because her bloodline consisted mostly of humans, she later became a demon.

 The henchmen of the tribe were then categorized as "traitors."

 Therefore, information about her is not easy to find.

 Most students sought out well-known traitors, with specific examples to trace, even...

 There are many existing evaluations that can be used as a reference.

 Diana and Rose both chose similar people, and they completed the course much faster.

 We arrived in front of Dak.

 But Dak wasn't in a hurry.

 If you do homework just to complete the task, then the meaning of the homework itself will be diminished.

 a lot of

 It took Dark an entire night to gain a fairly detailed understanding of that half-demon.

 To his surprise, the arrest warrant for Olivia Copernicus was suddenly issued at the end of the war.

 Along with her, a large group of people were also labeled as "traitors".

 But after checking the past records of some of the other respondents, Dak discovered that only Olivia did not have any.

 Any past records.

 Or perhaps her past was deliberately cut off.

 This makes her seem like someone who appeared out of nowhere.

 That arrest warrant was her first resume, her introduction to the world.

 Her crime was the unified charge of "treason".

 In the final stages of the war, as humanity was on the verge of final victory, a large number of people were purged, and she was very likely...

 It could be one of the components mixed in with it.

 However, she demonstrated formidable combat prowess during her "escape".

 Whether it's a bounty hunter driven by greed for rewards or a heretic inquisitor of the Holy Church, they are all...

 Feathers returned.

 Then, for a long period of time, she suddenly disappeared.

 When he reappeared, it was to turn himself in!

 Yes.

 One night, this "traitor" suddenly appeared in the church of the Holy Church and made a proclamation against the "Holy".

 He offered a sincere confession and allowed the Holy Knights to arrest him.

 That incident was even publicized by busybodies.

 The Church fueled this movement, using it to promote its doctrines.

 Afterwards, Olivia underwent a public trial by the Inquisition and was sentenced to one hundred years of imprisonment.

 He was imprisoned in Basdia Prison.

 On a newspaper that Dak found, there was a high-resolution color photo of her wearing prison clothes and shackles on her feet, being sent into the prison gate.

 Olivia has beautiful burgundy hair, slightly pale skin, but delicate features, and is older than her years.

 Around thirty, it looks like a ripe peach.

 To emphasize her ferocity, the color illustration deliberately depicted her fangs very clearly.

 Clearly, the demon blood flowing through her veins belongs to vampires!

 "how can that be"

 When Dak found out about this, he was extremely surprised.

 After his encounter with Vlad in the secret chamber, he specifically researched knowledge about vampires.

 Vampires are creatures with a very aggressive bloodline.

 Their inheritance can be roughly divided into two methods -

 The first act is the Embrace, which transforms humans into blood slaves, and then, starting from these slaves, gradually purifies their bloodline to become...

 A real vampire.

 Another one is biological inheritance!

 Regardless of species, any offspring resulting from reproduction with a vampire can only be vampires.

 Their bloodline may be corrupted, becoming "impure".

 But they are just low-ranking inferior vampires, not anything else.

 Legend has it that a god and a vampire had offspring who were also vampires!

 That god was even banished because of this!

 Therefore, hybrids between humans and vampires are theoretically impossible.

 But if Olivia were a full-fledged vampire, she would only face the death penalty, not the possibility of it.

 Imprisonment for a fixed term.

 This is clearly a contradiction.

 Unless Olivia possesses a special power that can resist that bloodline corruption.

 Dak touched the pen tip to the notebook and twirled it slightly, pondering the possibilities.

 He had a vague feeling that he should know something, but he couldn't quite recall it.

 Come.

 After a while.

 He got up, went into the pastry room, ate something, and when he came out, he had given up on pursuing the matter further.

 He then began writing related papers.

 The paper's argument is rather unusual; it concerns whether Olivia betrayed them.

 A powerful "vampire" with no record of actively killing humans.

 A "traitor" who voluntarily went to church to confess and turn himself in.

 So where exactly did she betray?

 Dark searched through all the information but couldn't find any evidence of Olivia's "betrayal," so he needed someone to tell him.
