Chapter 80: Conspiracy

Fioni's surprise didn't last long. In fact, if you think about it carefully, you can know that if it is just to track the traces of the shadow beast, there is no need for Peg to use the facility of the ashram so solemnly, and the witch must have other intentions in doing so. And this attempt is still mostly unknown to others, in other words, Peg's attempt will be detrimental to the interests of the entire witch community. It's interesting, considering that she's just returned to Heartbreaker's Bay, what would make her hesitate to do this?

"If my understanding of human language is correct, trust is a subjective act of the individual and has nothing to do with what you call the trusted. So even if you ask me that, I can't give a yes or no answer. The Kraken replied. But having said that, Fioni's calm look and the calmness in his words had given Peg some confidence.

"You're right, Kraken. But the only person I can trust now is you. So, I'll just think you can be trusted. Peg said with a wry smile, although she was in the place where she grew up, there were fewer people she could trust here than in the distant foreign country of the blue lion, "Then as the person I trust, I hope you can listen to my request." ”

Fioni sat down and tapped his fingers on his forehead, a habit for him to improve his concentration and thinking skills. Seeing that the Kraken was ready, Peg took one last look around the ashram and said after making sure there were no problems, "We made a mistake, a very big mistake. Because of this mistake, a bad luck that should not have befallen the innocent was nailed to the near future. But fortunately, there is still a chance to redeem it. Therefore, I want you to take advantage of the opportunity to search for the Shadow Beasts, find Lothar and the Networm, and take them out of here. If you can, it's a good idea to take them out of Heartbreaker Bay, and even if you can't, make sure to take them somewhere away from the water. Can you do it?"

"It seems that we can survive for a reason. The Kraken quickly realized what the witch's mistake was, and though he wasn't sure what it was, he realized that it must have been something the witches had done to escape from the crumbling fortress, "but even if I agreed, it wouldn't work." With my ability, I will not be able to complete the task you have entrusted to me. ”

"You don't have to worry about that, it's not my idea to let them escape. Hela and Garren and even Kiri will help you, especially Hela, who is now the one in charge of Lothar and the Networm, and if I add some hands and feet to the tracking spell I cast on you, she will know that you are the one who has come to take them away. As for the way to escape from here, Karen has already prepared, and she will take the initiative to come to you. All you need to guarantee is to send them away from the sea, away from that thing. "Long before meeting the Great Witch, several witches had already had the same idea. They knew what the witch colonies would do with "sacrifices" like networms, so they asked Hela to take on the role of caretaker. This is also completely reasonable in the eyes of others, after all, no one would have imagined that the person who made the contract would be the one who wanted to break the contract the most. This kind of regret and even denial of one's actions is not at all like what a witch would do.

"I see. I have one more question though. Fioni nodded, agreeing with Peg's plan so far. Indeed, from Claire's words just now, it can be known that many personnel in the witches' base camp have gone out now, and it should not be impossible to take this opportunity to take Lothar and them out of here with the assistance of Haila and Garron.

"Just ask. "Peg isn't the kind of person who knows everything. But since it was now her asking Fioni for help, she should at least show enough sincerity. Besides, Claire is the kind of person who turns a deaf ear to other things once she sinks into the job she is doing, and she doesn't care about time at all. Therefore, the witch did not show an impatient expression and replied indifferently.

"What will it cost you if I take them away?" the Kraken stared at the witch's face, hoping to catch all the subtle expressions of the other. Fioni was not a man of intent, and even though Peg's reasons were quite convincing, he had to make sure that the commission was a trap for the witches. On the other hand, if the witch is right, the Kraken wants to know what will happen. He believed that this was also something that Lothar and the webworm would want to know.

"Suck, exhale" The petite witch took a deep breath and then spit it out after two seconds. The temperature is much higher than that of the cold lion in spring, but even so, Peg feels that the air he inhales in his lungs is as biting as ice. The terrifying and twisted monster form in her impression reappeared, and she had to force herself to stop imagining it. Demons are different from demons, and breaking deals with the latter can sometimes be remedied, but for the former, no one knows what kind of revenge those crazy beings will make. But fortunately, the witches are not all without hole cards, since it was the great witch who guided them to summon the demon in the first place, then the great witch must know something about it. At this point, the Lost Hearts Witches are quite united, and they will not tolerate their sisters being taken from the territory of the Witch Order.

"Thank you for your concern. To be honest, I don't know what the price of breaking this contract will be. But I know very well that if I fulfill this damned, sinful, ugly deal, I will spend the rest of my life in the shadows. That cannot be allowed, the body can be wounded by struggle, but the mind cannot be defeated by reluctance. This is what I heard from the mouth of another fellow man, and according to her, it was told to her by a wise mage. Peg said that the other compatriot she was talking about was naturally Colandy who had taken her in at the Greylion.

"Besides, it was we who brought about the birth of that child. Strictly speaking, we are all his mothers. What mother can bear to watch her child become food for monsters?"

Fioni was silent for a moment as the witch explained, he needed time to judge the credibility of Peg's words. The witch waited patiently for the result, but even if the Kraken didn't grant her request, Peg and the others wouldn't give up, the witches themselves were a bunch of willful spellcasters, and since they were determined to break the contract, there was always a way to do it.

Interestingly, this seems to be a deliberate act of the Great Witch, who does not do so, even though she has the ability to train and educate the new generation of witches to be loyal to the interests of the witch group, and instead praises and encourages the young witches who show strong assertiveness. Even if these little witches get into trouble on the outside, the witch group's approach to solving the problem is more external than internal. Now it seems that this may be the move of the Great Witch to foresee the future direction of the witch group, and deliberately encourage these new generations to get out of the Heartless Bay.

The silence was finally broken. "I accept your commission. I don't know how far away from the sea I can take them as a Kraken, but I think I can do my best. Fionis thought about it, but agreed to the witch's request. Although this was a rare opportunity to get close to the witch, the Kraken knew that with the direction of the events in front of him, he probably wouldn't be able to live to record what he saw here. In that case, helping the two of them get out and get a way out of here was a double deal for him.

"Okay, then I'll cast a spell on you now. A smile tugged at the corners of Peg's mouth, and he said, "Also, you have to remember that you can't tell Lothar and the Networms the real reason why we let them escape until they're really out of danger." Otherwise, with the dead brain of that grey lion man, he would most likely refuse to leave. Also, if you have a way to make it through the Misty Sea, I hope you can send them to the Blue Lion within ten months, and when they get there, there will naturally be someone who can help them against their doom. ”

"Remember, ma'am. ”
