Chapter 107: Chapter 106: Enchanting Witch, Shining Debut!
When Shen Sui returned to the dormitory, Alice had already flown out of the borders of the Roland Empire on Lingyi.
The flying speed of Lingyi was indeed beyond Shen Sui’s imagination.
Shen Sui silently stared at the dueling device. Officially, he was still recuperating, and Andori had forcibly been given the title of "just awakened and physically weak" by Shen Sui and was sidelined. This trip to the War God Temple needed Alice to face it alone.
At least on the surface.
["Do we really have to do this?" Hali was quite puzzled. She was just a five-star Wolf King, considered low among the magical beasts. When she had her pack, maybe she could still howl a few times, but she’d already let all her subordinates roam free. "Isn’t this too dangerous?"]
["There’s nothing dangerous." Alice said with full confidence. Her original goal was to cause trouble and then collaborate with Oshana to obtain the Assos Holy Sword to sever the connection between Anna and the Sinful Chalice. Now that the Assos Holy Sword was in Oshana’s hands, there was no need to cause trouble. "This time, we’re just going to meet Oshana. What danger could there be?"]
Shen Sui was very moved; Alice finally realized she shouldn’t actively cause trouble.
The child had grown up, starting to feel sorry for her old father.
["About when will you arrive?" Oshana contacted Alice through Qishala’s dragon scale.]
Qishala, being the Star Abyss White Dragon, inherently possessed some of the starry sky’s abilities. The dragon scales on her body could enable remote communication, which was also one of the important communication tools in the game. It served as a clue for players to find the Star Abyss White Dragon.
Alice, after a bout of coaxing, easily obtained a dragon scale from Qishala to use as a communicator.
Of course, Shen Sui also conveniently obtained an equipment spell card [Star Abyss White Dragon Scale].
However, he didn’t expect Qishala to be so easy to talk to.
Thinking back, it made sense. Her soul hadn’t returned yet, and she was just a body acting based on instincts.
Alice’s words that day, "You are Claude’s only one," hit the sweet spot of Qishala’s instinct, so it was right to take care of Alice.
["We should be there soon. Has the sacrificial ceremony begun over there?" Alice asked curiously.]
["Not yet. That long-winded old guy is still speaking, saying things like the Dawn Continent is facing a new crisis, and the gods shouldn’t wage war against each other, blah blah." Oshana said impatiently. "It’s mainly the same old talk about preventing the revival of Twilight thoughts."]
[Alice, upon hearing this, asked curiously, "Isn’t the War God planning to deify the Twilight Saintess?"]
["That’s the reason my god declared war on your War God," Oshana said. "The Twilight Saintess is the greatest foe of the Lady of Daylight. She would not allow Twilight to stand alongside Daylight."]
["Wow! Alice! Did you know? I think I heard your name." On the other end, Oshana suddenly said excitedly, "The old guy actually said you’re the envoy of Twilight."]
["The envoy of Twilight?"]
["Yes, just a bunch of Twilight Bishop and Twilight Saintess-worshipping lunatics. They mimic what the Twilight Bishop did back then, inciting wars among the gods." Oshana said, "Honestly ridiculous, how can Alice be a lunatic?"]
Are you sure her previous actions were normal?
Upon seeing Oshana’s message, Shen Sui couldn’t help but retort.
Whether she incited a riot in the City of Sin or directly triggered the Error War, it didn’t seem like she was a normal person, right?
But on second thought, it also seemed to be a tradition of the Price Clan. Once they deemed someone a friend, they would trust and help without reservation.
The title of "Newbie’s Savior Mommy Baris" was not given for nothing.
Therefore, Shen Sui had always thought there was a significant doubt about Oshana’s statement that Baris was the most loyal knight of Daylight.
Baris had personally pierced through Daylight, and was simultaneously an essential member of the Twilight Council. Why did she wash away her Godslayer identity and become the most loyal knight of Daylight for a thousand years?
Upon reflecting on Vivian’s diary left behind, Shen Sui became more curious about what had happened between Baris and Vivian in Twilight City.
He was unwilling to believe Baris’s betrayal unless he saw concrete evidence.
["Yes, yes!" Alice fully agreed, "How could I possibly be a lunatic?"]
Man, Oshana is seeing Alice through the lens of friendship ingrained in her lineage, but how can you lack such self-awareness?
Shen Sui mentally retorted.
["He’s saying that the Enchanting Witch will become the source of the world’s chaos and is inviting all churches to unite against you, to kill you in the bud." Oshana’s tone became somewhat worried, "The people from other churches seem to agree, especially those guys from the Master of Thunder’s group. They were the first to jump up in support."]
No wonder. The Error War incited by Alice directly took down most elites of the Master of Thunder’s church and made the Master of Thunder’s church the laughingstock of all. Considering Alice as a thorn in their side was definitely normal.
["It doesn’t matter." Alice said very nonchalantly, "They’re looking for the Enchanting Witch Hozerville. What does that have to do with me, Alice?"]
[Ding! You’ve obtained a spell card: Dual Identity]
You can obtain a spell card just like this?
Shen Sui was a little surprised, but upon further thought, it actually made sense, at least this card could very likely influence the future direction of the Dawn Continent.
Alice and Hozerville, as if a pair of twins, seemed destined to become the shadows hanging over the gods in the sky above the Dawn Continent.
["Damn! I can’t hold on anymore!" Lingyi’s body began to visibly blur, a sign of weakness in the Spiritual Dragon, "Exactly where is the place you mentioned?"]
["Ah, not talking anymore Oshana, I’m nearby and need to guide Lingyi in for a landing." Alice said as she leaned over Lingyi’s head and looked down.]
[In the distance, huge stones pieced together a towering building, its top adorned with a statue of a muscular middle-aged man, a sculpture of the War God.]
[After a brief flight, Lingyi reached the vicinity of the War God Temple at the fastest speed, her strength depleted, necessitating an emergency landing.]
[Alice remained calm, pointing decisively to a light: "Right there!"]
[Without hesitation, Lingyi swiftly leaped toward the direction Alice pointed.]
[The Spiritual Dragon, accompanied by a roar of power, plunged downwards, her surrounding forming a white radiant glow, like a meteor streaking down directly.]
[Boom! Accompanied by a loud noise, the group successfully crash-landed.]
["Hahaha! The Enchanting Witch makes a shining debut!" Alice called out loudly, regardless of her disheveled state.]
["I’m here! Oshana, where are you?!" Alice excitedly said to the Star Abyss White Dragon Scale.]
["Uh..." Oshana’s voice sounded somewhat hesitant.]
["In every sense, I’m under the stage."]
[Alice looked down, seeing Oshana sitting in the guest seat, one hand covering her face and the other raised to let Alice see her.]
[Ding! You’ve obtained a spell card: Shining Debut]
