Chapter 343: Behind the Scenes
William didn't mean to intervene, his target was not the beautiful prince, and he was not interested in the beautiful lettuce girl in the story, the person he wanted to see most was the lettuce girl's godmother.
If nothing had gone wrong with the fairy tale, William would have just had to wait as it should.
William then found a dry cave in the forest, cleaned it up, and settled down.
He now carries a gourmet table with him, and he doesn't have to waste time on food, and the energy particles in the fairy tale world are not as violent as the energy particles in the Black Domain, and he can meditate on "Star Trail" as he likes.
As for the village, William left a few gold coins as a reward for the time he had spent in gratitude to Mr. and Mrs. Robert.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert were very sad for a while when they saw William disappear suddenly.
Fortunately, the contact with each other has not been long, to be realistic, the Robert couple, who are bent on William's pension, do not have deep feelings for William, and time will quickly wash away their sadness.
Life will return to normal again.
What is not normal is that in the days to come, there will be an extra regular visitor to the forest next to this small village.
Beautiful Prince!
He was the youngest son of the Grand Duke of Somya, the owner of the Principality of Missiha, and was called Cohen, whose full name was Cohen Missiha.
He is famous all over the country for his handsome appearance, and is also known as the Pretty Prince!
After Cohen returned to the palace, he never forgot the lettuce girl's singing and shadow.
The longing is like a shadow, and it makes the beautiful prince go crazy.
Finally, under the puzzlement of the Grand Duke of Somya, he came to the town near the frontier forest.
Every day on horseback, I came to the tower alone, passed through the illusion, and hid outside the wall for a fixed time, listening to the lettuce girl singing inside the wall!
The sound fascinated the pretty prince, not only did not calm Cohen's heart, but made Cohen's heart more urgent, eager to see the lettuce girl.
Every day, he went more frantically to the vicinity of the tower, looking for a way to get inside.
One day, while the pretty prince was wandering behind the wall, he suddenly saw from a distance on the other side of the wall, that is, in the front position, an old woman with a pointed hat, a wrinkled face, shrouded in a dark green robe, and a snake-headed wand approaching.
The old woman's dress reminded the pretty prince of his previous education.
When a thought flashed through the pretty prince Cohen, he was sure that this strangely dressed old woman was the witch who was usually promoted by the Holy Light Church.
I remembered that the Holy Light Holy See said that witches are all messengers of the devil in hell, and they do all kinds of evil, and their favorite thing to do is to dig out human hearts and make a pot of thick soup!
The beautiful prince Cohen's heart trembled, and he immediately took out a silver necklace on his chest.
When he was an adult, he went to the Holy See Chapel to pray, and a bishop of the Holy See gave him a gift, saying that the Lord of Light was a pious blessing to his faith, as long as he had a humble heart and recited the words of God, he could collect his own breath in the face of evil.
It's actually something like a witchcraft instrument.
The necklace can be used three times, and Cohen has used it twice before.
The first time it was wasted during the experiment.
The second time was when he was hunting, when he was in danger of being besieged by wolves, he used it, and he made the wolves ignore his presence and attack his guards instead, so that he could finally leave unscathed.
And now it's the third time Cohen has used it.
He quickly whispered the opening words given to him by the Holy Light Sect Bishop, and then he felt the necklace on his chest first light and then darken, and an invisible fluctuation covered his entire body.
Cohen was still standing behind the tree, but Cohen's whole body was relaxed.
Because he knew that the effect of this treasure had been successful, and unless the old witch came to him in person, the old witch would not be able to easily discover his existence.
He cautiously poked his head out a little, observing the old woman's manners.
Cohen is not a fool, on the contrary, he is also very smart.
Towers, illusions, and walls full of traps that Cohen can't climb over......
If the old witch had nothing to do with the girl in the tower, he wouldn't have believed Cohen if he killed him.
Sure enough, the old witch came to William step by step, and with a steady step, she tapped the wall lightly with the snakehead cane in her hand, and the wall automatically retreated on both sides, revealing the path that led to the bottom of the tower.
The old witch walked on without changing her face, and after a while she came to the bottom of the tower, raised her head, and shouted to the top, "Lettuce, lettuce, hang your hair down." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a brilliant blonde hair hung down from the small window at the top of the tower.
The blonde hair fell straight to the bottom of the tower, in front of the old witch.
The old witch put her hands around the blonde hair, and the blonde hair gently wrapped around the old witch as if it were alive, and then led the old witch straight up, and finally came to the small window, and the old witch clung to the edge of the window, and entered the tower with the agility that she would not have at her age.
Outside the tower, Cohen, who slipped into the front of the wall at some point, was watching this scene in amazement.
His eyes rolled, his mind raced, and in the end, he did not choose to leave, but waited patiently.
It was a long time before the old witch appeared from the window at the top of the tower, and along with her appeared the blonde hair that Cohen had been thinking about day and night.
Cohen, the pretty prince, hurriedly found a hiding place and hid.
The old witch quickly descended to the bottom of the tower with her blonde hair, but compared to the previous calm, the old witch who left looked a little depressed.
She left with an ugly face, and before leaving, she struck the wall with her cane, and the wall closed again.
It wasn't until the figure of the old witch completely disappeared from Cohen's sight that Cohen dared to come out of the hidden place and look at the tower stupidly.
"No matter how difficult it is, no matter how much it costs, I must see you!"
Cohen is now obsessed, and he has secretly made up his mind!
On the other side, William, who was also hiding in a cave somewhere in the forest, stood up from the ground after seeing the old witch's movements in the magic mirror, and a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them!"
"Potions Master, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
That's right, when William knew that he had come to the place where the fairy tale "Lettuce Girl" took place, especially before the story happened, William immediately remembered the descendant of the Hekate family who was almost caught by a soldier in the lighterbox.
It was with her help that William was able to wash away the spiritual imprint on the Void Hound, and successfully signed the soul contract to become a wizard on the summoning side.
During those days with her, William learned from her mouth about the existence of a Potions Master.
She said that it was this potions master who taught her the key potion of the "water of Jörmungandre".
