"I am... What? What Grim Reaper? Who did I kill? No, no, no, no, that's not the case. Lothar's head shook from side to side, and though it wasn't violent in frequency or amplitude, it was already quite a shake for a determined warrior, "Listen ma'am, the destination is death, well, it's no surprise, I vaguely notice it, although he is not the same as the legendary Grim Reaper I know." But I definitely didn't kill the Thunder Giant! First of all, he wasn't alive in the first place, no one could kill a corpse, right? Secondly, I didn't do anything to him, I mean, after his head was cut off from his neck and his flesh was spoiled into all sorts of things, he was still slowly resuscitating, and I didn't think that a small wound in his heart would have killed him. And most importantly, why do you say like I'm doing everything you didn't expect?"

The Great Witch smiled happily again, she seemed younger than Lothar had first seen her, in fact, the roots of her hair had grown from pale to color. "Well, my dear Mr. Knight, it seems that my words have upset you, right? And I should have stopped talking to you at this point, leaving you to maintain this strong suspicion and curiosity as a radical pawn. But this time let's break the mold, who makes me like lions, oh, that might make someone jealous, you know, young girls always hate people who snatch toys from them. I don't mean your wife, she's more like your giveaway. I'm talking too much, right, so let's get down to business. The Great Witch's hair became a little more colourful as she spoke, and her mental state seemed to be high.

"Thunder Giant, he really wasn't dead before, and of course he wasn't alive either, he was in a wonderful state between life and death. In this state, he will slowly reclaim his life, and the process will not be interrupted, because even if the reshaped body is destroyed again, he will only have to spend some more time to do it again. As far as I know, nothing in this world can really kill him, except death itself. The destination is death, at least in this sea, and he is death itself. And you are the carrier of this abstract concept, a perfect container. But there's nothing to be frustrated about, you're not being used by me, you're not being used by anyone else, it's the gods who are using you. He borrowed your hand to recover a soul that had been here too long. You see, there are not many people who are considered worthy of being favored by the great gods and serving them, and by that you can be a part of the legend. ”

In the underwater cavern, when the Lord of Destiny had explained to Lothar the apparent death of the Thunder Giant, the Count had already noticed that his understanding of death seemed to be somewhat different. But what he didn't expect was that the existence who had made a pact with him and lent his power to Lothar for a time would be the god in charge of death. It's never nice to be taken advantage of, but as the witch said, to be empowered by God to accomplish a mission is a glorious thing in every kind of thinking. As for the fact that the destination did not mention it to Lothar from beginning to end, the gods, why should they explain their actions to mortals?

"Well, I accept your statement. But if the gods really intervened, as you say, then how do you know so much about it? Although you are a powerful witch, a friend of mine who is also skilled in the way of magic said that the caster is only one of the mortals after all. The Count's gaze fell silent and he said.

"Your friends have seen a lot of things that spellcasters don't want to see. He will suffer more than others because of this, and it is much more comfortable to be a pawn than to seek the truth. "As for me, or the witches as you know, we are never on the chessboard of this world. Because of this, no matter how many games we jump into or how many boards we jump over, no one will come to us. It's time for travelers to join in, even if it comes at a cost. But you don't have to worry, when I say chessboard and chess pieces, you are not a pawn in my hand, what I know about what you do is speculation based on known intelligence, we are all pawns. But the chess pieces also have to fight for the fate of the chess pieces, don't they?"

As she spoke, wiping her mouth and hands with a napkin, the Great Witch now looked to be only forty or fifty years old, and she was still transitioning to a more youthful form. "Jingle bell, jingle bell" The witch shook the bell on the table, and then the door that Lothar had walked through when she entered the room opened again, and several senior witches, led by the blue-eyed witch Eaton, approached the room and stood humbly in a row at the bottom of the stairs. The Count was very familiar with the state of mind they were in at this time, the state of a warlike warrior before the start of the war.

"Go feed our hungry gulls, but don't feed too much, they have to stay hungry to be able to do their best. The Great Witch's voice fell, and the two witches bowed and walked out, "Go and gather the children, and tell them that after this war the Witch Order will no longer restrict their freedom, and that the door of the birdcage will be open before them." "Two more witches left. Orders were issued from the mouth of the Great Witch, passed through the Senior Witches, and began to be executed. When only Lothar, the Great Witch and Eton were left in the room, the Great Witch stood up, and with a slight wave of her hand, the scenery outside the window of the room changed, as if the room was actually built on a high mountain, overlooking the entire Bay of Lost Heart and the sea around it. One of the most conspicuous is the vortex that shrinks at a speed visible to the naked eye on the surface of the sea.

"The vortex won't last much longer. Eaton said in a deep voice, when the vortex disappears, it is when the battle for ownership of this land is about to begin.

"No, before the vortex disappears, the Kraken will send an advance party in. Arrange a few squads and let them look at the sides of the whirlpool. The blue-eyed witch received the order and left the room.

"I don't think I'm going to have anything to do here, and I'd better get back to the city as soon as possible. "Lothar now fully understands that the witches don't need to be warned at all, and they have never taken their eyes off Heartbreaker Bay, and everything Heartless Bay has been going through for more than half a year is just to make this upcoming battle not more uneventful. For this reason, the witches even went so far as to put the people of the city through food and water shortages. Because they knew that the people who died in such an elimination were not really combat forces in the first place, and providing resources for them to survive would not only not increase their combat power when fighting the Kraken, but would also increase the hidden dangers in the rear.

"Don't worry, Mr. Knight. The voice of the Great Witch had changed from what Lothar had first heard, it was not that of an old man, and the curves of the body shown with his back to him and the long black hair proved his point even more. The Great Witch turned her head slightly, her eyes turning a clear royal blue glow, "I have other arrangements for you. There's one thing you have to do, but don't worry, I'm not going to let you do it alone. ”
