Ghost Chapter 13 Witch Island (Claris Island)
Looking at the blue shell with a trident on her chest, and then at Naomi with a leisurely but confident face, Diana's heart became more determined, and it seemed that only by following Naomi could she know her life experience.
Diana stared at the thunderstorm in the sky on the island not far away, which was a ritual on the island of witches, and murmured curiosity in her heart, "Contract?"
"Gollum...... Naomi put down the coffee in her hand and said, "The contract, a contract from a hundred years ago, we still fulfill it. β
"What kind of contract?"
"A hundred years ago, our witch clan was hunted down by the major empires on the Japanese continent, and then had to choose to make a living in the new continent, so we prayed for the guidance of the female sea god. Later, under the guidance of the goddess of the sea, we came to this island, which we called Clares Island. β
Diana Diana said, "Clares?"
Naomi nodded and said, "Well, she symbolizes the meaning of the sea and power. β
"And what is this contract?" asked Diana.
Naomi leaned close to Diana's face and said, "Everything in the ocean!" After speaking, she walked to the side of the boat and continued: "Everything in this sea is entrusted to us by the goddess of the sea. β
Diana Diana walked to the side of the boat, only to see that at this moment, the ocean was not the deep blue of the past, but the faint sky blue, and everything in the sea water was clearly visible.
Looking at the prowling fish and dolphins, the beluga whales in the distance, and everything in the water, Diana felt like she was going to be mesmerized.
Naomi smiled and said, "Hehe, there will be more amazing things on the island in a while!Come on!" and took out a delicate wooden boat from her hand, which was no bigger than the palm of her hand.
After placing the delicate wooden boat in her hand, Naomi muttered a few simple incantations before throwing it into the water.
Diana Diana looked at the small wooden boat, which was rapidly growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye, it became a wooden boat that could accommodate two or three people.
Naomi jumped onto the boat, walked over to Diana and said, "Let's go, I don't know where you came from, but someone will know." β
Looking at Naomi, Diana hesitated, thinking that she could find the female sea god to solve the dispute on one side, at least not so that there could be less dispute on this ocean. But what is even more appealing to her now is the question of her own origins, because Diana has been in a tavern for as long as she can remember.
Although the boss sees her as his own, the mystery of her life has always haunted her, and whenever she sees other peers have parents and is the only one who has her own parents, Diana's inner desire is now answered.
Although they only met once, Diana Diana was shocked every time Naomi said what was on her heart. Although there are still doubts, the thought of having answers on Witch Island only forces Diana to find what once belonged to her.
Diana hesitated for a few seconds, but was finally overcome by her desire to find her origins, and chose to jump onto Naomi's ship.
Naomi nodded, and said with a smile: "Come and find your true power......" After speaking, she lifted her sleeve, and a snake-shaped mark on her arm appeared, and a blue ghostly light appeared, and with a stroke in front of her, a spatial door opened from the sea.
Diana Diana took a closer look intently and found that the sea water in front of her was blocked by an invisible force, and there was a large circle of invisible force on the entire sea surface that pressed down a distance of several meters wide. This invisible spatial force stretched all the way to the distant vanishing sea level, forming a huge spatial shroud over Witch Island.
"If you were an outsider and didn't know about this, wouldn't you just crash into it?" Diana said.
"The other ships, people who don't have witch powers, can't see this, and they're not only going to crash into it, but they're going to be eaten by sharks in the sea. Naomi said, "When you turn on the witch's powers, you'll be able to come and go here freely." β
As Naomi's words fell, I saw that the gate that had just been opened slowly opened, and what greeted me was almost another world, a huge island, without the desolate feeling of just now.
It is surrounded by green vegetation, trees, and coconut palms are taller than in other places. And the most amazing thing is that the sand here is actually white, crystal clear, and extremely white.
Diana felt incredible, not to mention such a change, now even she didn't know which was in the real world.
Naomi got off the boat and walked in front and said, "Come on, we're a little late, but we can still catch up." β
"Catch up with what?" asked Diana.
"The ritual of the sacrifice, but I don't know why this ritual took so long, and it should have been done before...... Naomi said.
As Naomi walked ahead, the intricate and tangled branches of the island opened automatically, revealing a path hidden in the trees.
After a short and half journey, Naomi led Diana to a huge ancient sacrificial platform in the middle of Witch Island, or Claris Island.
When Diana appeared, several witches from behind her turned their heads and looked at her with a little surprise. In Diana's opinion, all the witches here looked to be in their fifties and sixties, and several looked to be in their sixties and seventies.
Following Naomi slowly to the altar of sacrifice, he saw three old men kneeling at the highest point, and in the middle was not a tribute, but a person.
When Diana wanted to take a closer look, she found that the person lying in the middle had no breath. Turning the angle, he found that the person lying down was actually a peaceful old man, no doubt the oldest one present.
"The dead are gone, and Claris needs a new life. The old man said.
"But in a hundred years, no real person has obtained a real witch inheritance!" said another old man.
The old man said angrily: "Since Theria took away the holy relics of Cleris, betrayed the contract, and betrayed the female sea god, we have been atoning for our sins......"
"Relicβwhat kind of relic?" asked Diana curiously.
Naomi shook her head and said, "It is a gift from the goddess of the sea, which can keep us young and strong forever, but it requires us to sacrifice a large number of lives to it every year. And since the relics left Clares, our energy has become less and less, and we have become more and more aging......"
"Who's talking where!" said an old man, snapped.
"Dear Elder, it's Naomi. I've found a Bearer with a witch, hoping to find her origins here. Naomi said.
The old man walked down, pulled up Diana's sleeve, and a mysterious power came out along the old man's eyes, and he actually walked up the cat-shaped mark on Diana's arm. After a while, he suddenly said, "Say, who are you, Theria?"
"I don't know ......, Teria," Diana denied.
"Is she the illegitimate child of that woman?"
"Oh my God, so young, so jealous......"
β......β
Listening to the witches chattering around for a while, Diana Diana wanted to withdraw her arm, but found that no matter how hard she tried, it had no effect.
Seeing that a large amount of blood had already appeared on his arm, the elder suddenly let go and said, "Isn't it like looking for your background?"
Diana Diana nodded immediately when she heard this, but said with a little more hesitation: "I really want to know, but I ......"
Before Diana could finish speaking, the elder took a ring out of his hand and said, "Then I'll tell you, but I need you to sign this new contract!"
