Chapter 394: Damn, here it comes again!
Outside, in the forest.
Xia Yu gave everyone some information about the witches hidden in history. Because the Witch of Disguise was really good at hiding, everyone was amazed to learn that there was such a witch.
"So, the Witch of Deception was also involved in the demi-human war?"
After Xia Yu finished his explanation, Wilhelm couldn't help but raise his hand and asked, he was an eyewitness of the Demihuman War that year, and it was during that war that he learned about his wife's identity as a sword saint.
"That's right."
Xia Yu nodded and said casually: "If there are any unclear doubts in history, they can be blamed on the Witch of Pretense. All wars without reason are caused by the Witch of Pretense. She is the scapegoat in this world."
"The scapegoat?"
Everyone was wondering, what kind of strange coined word was this?
"That's not important. What's important is the Witch of Disguise." Xia Yu sat cross-legged on the ground, supporting his knees with his hands and leaning forward .
"When the Witch of Disguise appears, you must not act rashly. The farther away the better, because she has the means to brainwash and change memories. She can also replace one scene that others see with another, which is very likely to make us kill each other."
In the original book, Pandora used this kind of vision to make Joss kill the person he loved, driving him crazy and turning him into the Archbishop of Sloth.
After hearing Xia Yu's information, everyone was silent and thinking. Xia Yu said again: "But Natsuki Subaru and I are immune to this, so I will deal with the Witch of Falsehood. If you are not sure whether what you saw is true, you can ask Natsuki Subaru."
"Isn't this... bad?"
"Letting your companions deal with the enemy alone..."
Xia Yu rolled his eyes at these words and said bluntly: "Anyway, you are not immune to his power, so you can't help at all. If you come together, you might even hold me back, so don't talk nonsense, that's it."
After saying that, Xia Yu stood up without waiting for others to refute.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other and stopped talking. After sorting out their equipment, they also stood up.
This time, the crusade against the witch cultists became much simpler because of Xia Yu's joining. After all, once the spiritual sense was turned on, the location could be directly located.
Then Xia Yu was too lazy to hide his strength, although he had never hidden it before.
Sensing the presence of the witch cultists, Xia Yu directly fired a map cannon, a large-scale AOE was thrown over, and the forest and the witch cultists were destroyed at the same time.
Under the shocked gazes of others, the half-day originally planned to deal with the witch cultists only took less than two hours, and most of the time was spent on traveling.
“That’s… amazing.”
Looking at the azure crystals that obliterated a large area of forest, Julius couldn't help but sigh. Although he could also use magic through the elves, he was powerless against such power.
"Mr. Xia Yu, may I ask what kind of magic you just used ? It looks a bit like fire-type ice crystal magic, but you didn't seem to recite any spells."
Seeing Xia Yu once again casually cast the powerful magic that changed the terrain, Julius, who was also an elven warlock, couldn't help but step forward and ask.
Even if he couldn't use magic of this power through the elves, it would be helpful for him to know about it in advance.
Xia Yu had no intention of hiding Julian's question. This was a magic that belonged only to him, and others could not use it even if they knew it.
"This magic is called White Dragon Breath. It can display the crystallized breath of the white dragon Hiss. It is a skill that uses the power of the dragon to exert its power in human form."
"White Dragon Hiss? Dragon?!" Julius' eyes widened.
Lugnica himself had faith in the dragon, so when the name of the dragon came out, his brain paused for half a second.
After he reacted, he said in admiration: "So it's the power of the dragon. No wonder it's so powerful. Your Excellency Xia Yu is really amazing."
"Okay, stop chatting. Let's be alert from now on."
As Xia Yu spoke, he drew out two swords. Now they had entered the area of Aram Village. It was here that Natsuki Subaru met the Witch of Falsehood last time.
call--!
The two straight swords suddenly ignited with sulfurous flames, were enchanted by hellfire, black magic patterns emerged, and the hand guards turned into hideous skulls. They didn't look like they were used by good people.
clang!
The sword body made a slight sound, and the enchanted straight sword exuded a murderous aura, and the sword body was burning with an orange-red flame that seemed to never go out.
"Small dish, next!"
Xia Yu casually threw one of the enchanted straight swords to Natsuki Subaru.
Seeing the flaming straight sword thrown towards him, Natsuki Subaru hurriedly caught it in a panic, and then couldn't help complaining: "Senior, can you just pass it to me next time? It's easy to hurt me this way."
"If you are really hurt, then I will have to doubt whether I should continue to help you become stronger." Xia Yu replied casually, then raised his head towards the Aram Village in front.
"Besides, your goddess is over there, why don't you go up and explain?"
"goddess?"
Natsuki Subaru turned around and saw Emilia in white knocking on doors in the village, persuading the villagers to follow her to take refuge.
Although she was in the mansion, she could sense that the atmosphere was unusual.
It's just that because of her identity, it's hard for her not to be treated specially.
The villagers showed great distrust of Emilia. Even though Emilia humbled herself and begged everyone one by one, no one was willing to listen to her.
Natsuki Subaru was immediately angry when he saw this scene. What he hated most was someone bullying Emilia, even if it was a villager with whom he had a good relationship before.
Therefore, Natsuki Subaru ran into the village yelling.
The sound came from far away and gradually got closer. Emilia and the villagers looked in the direction of the sound and saw Natsuki Subaru running towards them with a flaming straight sword in his hand.
From the perspective of the villagers , Natsuki Subaru had a murderous look on his face, and was holding a weapon that looked ominous in his hand, as if he was going to chop someone down.
Thinking about Natsuki Subaru's usual attitude towards Emilia, all the villagers felt nervous.
It's gonna be bad!
"Natsuki Subaru, you need to calm down!"
"We didn't bully Lady Emilia. We listened to her carefully! "
"Put down your weapons, don't be impulsive!"
For a moment, the villagers hurriedly explained loudly, and Emilia, seeing this, also hurried forward to block the way.
"Subaru, you...you can't hurt anyone!"
"ah?"
Natsuki Subaru, who had run over in indignation, made a puzzled sound when he saw that the villagers suddenly stood on the same front as Emilia.
"What are you talking about? When did I hurt anyone?"
"You...put down your weapon first, so we can discuss things."
"That's right, Subaru, your weapon looks unsafe, throw it away!"
"How terrible! Could it be that Subaru is being controlled?"
"this……"
It was not until then that Natsuki Subaru reacted. Looking at the ominous weapon in his hand, his expression gradually distorted.
"Senior, you tricked me again!"
Natsuki Subaru threw the sword to the ground fiercely, and the sharp sword body sank directly into the ground, leaving only the guard and the hilt outside.
"Emilia Tan, it's not like that, I just..."
After figuring it out, Natsuki Subaru hurriedly wanted to explain, but after thinking about it, he found that there seemed to be no need to explain, because due to an unexpected misunderstanding, the villagers seemed to have stood on the same front with Emilia.
If he gave an unromantic explanation at this moment, it would make the atmosphere awkward. In this case, let him bear everything alone!
"Subaru, why are you here?"
Emilia breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Natsuki Subaru seemed to have calmed down and dropped the ominous weapon.
There was joy on his face, but he didn't know what he was thinking about, and the joy was replaced by confusion: "I clearly asked Subaru and Rem to stay in the capital, why did Subaru come back?"
“This…that…”
For a moment, Natsuki Subaru's face showed panic. After all, he once again disrespected Emilia's request and did other things on his own.
"Let us explain this matter." Coincidentally, at this moment, Xia Yu and his group who were lagging behind came forward, and Yulius also stepped forward and spoke.
"Lady Emilia, my friend Natsuki Subaru was worried about your safety and worked hard to run around the royal city alone. He finally gathered people to deal with the witch cults in the surrounding area."
"Destroyed the Witch Cult?" Emilia covered her mouth in surprise and looked at Natsuki Subaru in disbelief: "And it was for me? Subaru, is what Yurius said true?"
"Well..." Natsuki Subaru tilted his head and scratched his face, his face a little red: "It's about like this."
"Pleiades……"
Emilia's eyes welled up with tears. She slowly walked forward and took Natsuki Subaru's hand, choking and saying, "Why, why do you value me so much?"
"Because..." Natsuki Subaru also turned around, looked at Emilia in front of him, and said with a smile: "Because you are special to me!"
The two of them didn't care about the eyes of the people around them and stood there talking to each other.
Seeing this scene, Wilhelm couldn't help but sigh: "It's good to be young."
"Tsk, the sour smell of love can't even cover up the smell of sulfur." Xia Yu tightened his grip on the sword again and again, but finally suppressed the urge to chop Natsuki Subaru to death.
"Ah... love, how wonderful."
Suddenly, a female voice as gentle as a bell cut into the topic. Nasbarasi's words caused different reactions in those who heard the voice.
Deep in Natsuki Subaru's pupils, there was trembling and fear, while Xia Yu's eyes showed a moment of surprise, and most of the others were shocked and curious.
In front of the crowd, a young girl suddenly appeared. She had a breathtaking beauty that could shock anyone just by looking at her.
"What's wrong? Am I wrong?"
The girl, who was as beautiful as if blessed by God, tilted her head and asked an ordinary question. For an ordinary person, just this ordinary glance, just knowing that the girl noticed him, could make him satisfied and happy to the point of his heart stopping.
The next moment, everyone understood instantly that the girl was a dangerous existence that should not have been born into this world.
Phew!
Just as the girl suddenly appeared, Xia Yu suddenly swung his sword, and the girl's extremely beautiful head just separated from her body.
Without any surprise, the girl's blood gushed out from her neck, dyeing the surrounding land red and turning into fertilizer that soaked the ground.
laugh!
The flames ignited, and the scarlet blood and body were burned to ashes in an instant. If it weren't for the traces of burning on the ground, everyone would have thought that the appearance of the girl and Xia Yu's sword swing were just illusions.
"Xia Yu, what just happened was..."
Yurius' mouth was dry, not because of the sudden change, but because of the sudden rise in temperature of the air.
"That's the Witch of Pretense!"
After answering, Xia Yu stretched out his hand, and the straight sword that Natsuki Subaru had inserted into the ground flew into his hand. Xia Yu, holding two swords, silently opened his spiritual perception.
The Witch of Disguise has the power to change reality, so she can also change the fact of her own death. Through this, the Witch of Disguise can be said to be truly immortal.
"The Witch of Pretense?!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. They all nervously drew their weapons and looked around vigilantly.
"Senior, what just happened was..."
Natsuki Subaru also hurried over at this time, but before he could finish his words, he saw Xia Yu nod slightly and immediately understood what had happened.
The Witch of Pretense has arrived.
"Oh, it's not nice to suddenly turn your sword against me. Can't we just continue to admire this wonderful love?"
Sbarasi's words rang out again, and Pandora reappeared unharmed, but the moment she appeared, a flaming slash struck.
The flames passed by, and the ethereal young figure turned into black ashes again.
"Really? Can't you just listen to others properly?" The resurrected Pandora floated in front of Xia Yu, frowning slightly as if in distress.
“Tsk…”
After realizing that he couldn't kill Pandora for the time being, Xia Yu let out a displeased sound, but he didn't try to kill Pandora either.
"So wouldn't it have been better if we did this earlier? If we communicate, we can understand each other." Pandora smiled slightly, and that smile seemed to dim the world.
"Shut up. If you keep talking nonsense, I will kill you until you can't even speak."
Although Pandora is very beautiful, Xia Yu, who has extremely strong mental strength, obviously will not fall into her charm. He has no good feelings towards this arrogant, indifferent, cruel and ruthless monster.
If other witches of sin still have some cute qualities of their own, Pandora is a true witch, a witch who truly lives up to the word "devil".
"Don't be angry. I forgive all your violence and bad words. After all, I love all of you. Love is such a beautiful word."
Hard, the fist is hard.
Bang!
Xia Yu didn't hesitate at all. Because his fist was hard, he punched Pandora's head and blew it up.
"Hey, didn't we agree to have a good talk? Why are you still angry?"
Pandora appeared again, but this time, she came to Natsuki Subaru and gently stroked his face: "There is no need to be afraid, everything is inevitable, it is the guidance of fate, it is the road of fate that led the situation to this."
Bang!
As expected, Pandora's head exploded again, but the next moment, her voice rang out again.
"But fate seems to have been changed, so I am here to correct fate and put it back on the right track. Come on, put fate back on the right track."
Hearing this, Xia Yu didn't hesitate at all, and used his huge mental power to crush Pandora to death. But before Pandora appeared again, the familiar time reversal came again.
The tense atmosphere at the scene was instantly swept away, and both the expeditionary team and Pandora disappeared without a trace.
Holding two straight swords, Xia Yu took a deep breath and raised his hands silently...
"Fuck, again!"
The two straight swords were thrown heavily to the ground. Although the last time was intended to obtain intelligence, it was still very unpleasant.
Moreover, Pandora's power was much stronger than he had imagined.
As for the power of illusion that can turn illusion into reality, at this moment, it seems that he has no good solution.
Kill instantly with the help of his strength? It's not impossible, but he hasn't fallen into despair yet, so he would rather try it on his own.
The Archbishop of Greed is the best example of remaining invincible. The result of being killed instantly without any brain growth will only lead to no growth in intelligence.
Sure enough, it is better to let the golden seeds germinate first.
