Chapter 11: The Traveling Witch

Looks like you're thinking I'm a perverted murderer or something?

Summer Night thought a little speechlessly.

Although she did intend to scare the other party, before she could start to exert herself, the other party collapsed first.

Besides, she was just going to get Lilian to answer me honestly and answer a few questions...... No, that's just a lot of questions.

After all, she still doesn't know anything about many things in this world, and the most convenient object to ask is, of course, the girl in front of her.

Why don't I help you up first?

She thought as she took a step toward Lillian.

Unexpectedly, this small action caused a more violent reaction from the other party.

The girl let out a "babble" scream, her slender calves kicked indiscriminately on the ground, she had no strength to stand up, and could only push her body backwards in this way.

And then very quickly—her back hit the cold, hard wall.

There is no way to retreat now.

And the monster that summoned terrifying tentacles and wore a strange triangular hood was still approaching her step by step.

The other party deliberately walked very slowly, obviously wanting to appreciate her despair for a while, Lilian thought that she might be about to die, or even worse than dead, a sudden courage was born in her body, she stretched out her palm, shook it at the "monster", and at the same time uttered a syllable in the witch language in her mouth:

“D-”

The "Witch's Hand", which can grab a certain range of items in the air, is a small but practical magic.

A delicate and small square-heeled leather shoe flew up and floated in mid-air, and Lillian realized that she had accidentally thrown the shoe on one foot to the ground in the panic kick just now.

The other party also stopped at this time, the hood turned slightly, and after his eyes stayed on the leather shoes for a moment, he looked at the little foot that had lost his shoes.

Lillian's face flushed suddenly, and she involuntarily clasped her toes wrapped in translucent black silk.

"Die, monster!"

She screamed and used the "witch's hand" to throw the leather shoes at the "monster", and the leather shoes with body temperature flew out and hit the opponent's head with precision.

No, strictly speaking, it was a hit on the hood.

Then Lillian saw the hood deformed, dented, and fly out with her shoes.

Hum! I've long seen that this weird hood is not pleasing to the eye!

She thought a little proudly, and at the same time there was a trace of luck in her heart, looking at the other party's inability to dodge, maybe this monster has reached the end of the crossbow, and now it is just bluffing?

- The girl has not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.

Until, she saw what was under the hood.

Nothing.

There is no head, no imaginary hideous face, nothing at all. The end of the white neck is a flat fracture, and it seems that the color of blood red can still be seen.

This scene is countless times more terrifying than the head of a hideous monster.

"Goo......

Lillian made a strange noise in her throat, and she opened her mouth wide as if she wanted to scream, but she couldn't make any noise. Immediately afterward, his eyes rolled upward, his body leaned against the wall, and he fell limply.

Boom.

"Scared?"

Xia Ye leaned down on his headless body, looked at it carefully, and reached out to probe the girl's breathing, and finally confirmed that the other party had just fainted, and there should be no danger to his life.

Unexpectedly, the hood still fell off, she thought helplessly, but this is fine, anyway, relying on this simple way, it can't be hidden after all, it is better to find it early and solve it early. The other party just fainted, as long as she woke up and thought of a reasonable explanation.

She bent down, grabbed the girl's two ankles, dragged her petite body into her room, and did not forget to pick up the lonely little leather shoes into it, and then closed the door with a "bang".

……

……

"Woo......"

The girl snorted and woke up from her coma.

Lying on the couch by himself, his hands and feet were not tied with ropes or anything like that, and his clothes were completely on...... As soon as Lillian breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, a headless neck emerged from above her vision.

"Babbling—"

She almost fainted again.

Summer Night stood above Lilian's head and bent down to look down at her, "Are you awake?" ”

"You, you, you...... What kind of monster is it? The girl lay stiffly on the sofa, not daring to move, and before the tears on her little face had dried up, there were already tears rolling in her eyes: "Can you not kill me...... Whining...... I don't want to die yet......"

"Don't worry, I'm just like you, a witch." Summer Night replied.

"Then why are you...... No, no head? The girl clearly didn't believe her answer.

"For I sacrificed it to the great being who cannot be named." Summer Night replied solemnly, a statement she had come up with while Lillian was unconscious.

Unexpectedly, the girl blinked and asked curiously, "What is 'sacrifice'?" What does it mean to be 'a great being who cannot be called by name'? ”

"Uh......" Summernight thought to herself, since you don't know what sacrifice means, why is there such a word in the lingua franca. You don't need to know that, you just need to know that Ben Witch can move without a head. ”

"Oh......" Lillian nodded obediently, though skeptical.

Summer Night was very pleased with her reaction, and went on to explain, "This witch is from a far away place......

But before she could get started, she was suddenly interrupted by Lillian's exclamation:

"Huh?! So you're a traveling witch?! ”

The girl sat up from the couch at once, and her expression was not only no longer as frightened as before, but also seemed to be a little surprised.

"What is a traveling witch?" Now it was replaced by a bewildered look on the summer night...... Oh no, she doesn't have a face.

"It's a witch who can cross the Aether Sea alone and travel from city to city." Lillian explained, "You said you came from far away, you must have crossed the Aether Sea to get here, right? ”

What is the Ether Sea? Listen to the meaning of each other's words, the cities in this world are all isolated from each other?

Although there were still many questions, Xia Ye didn't ask any more, but replied as a matter of course: "That's right, I am what you call the 'Traveling Witch'." ”

"No wonder, no wonder ......"

"What's the blame?"

"No wonder you can move freely without a head, traveling witches are very powerful witches, a person as powerful as you is, it's not a big deal to have no brains, right?"

"Hmm...... yes, yes, of course. Summer Night crossed her hands on her hips and replied with a vague heart.

"Ah, yes...... I haven't officially introduced myself yet, my name is Lillian. The girl stood up from the couch, smiled, and held out her hand to the summer night.

"Summer night."

Summer Night also stretched out his hand and shook it with the other party, whose palm was as soft as boneless, and his skin was as silky and delicate as Dove chocolate...... Of course, my own is not far behind, hum.

"Speaking of which, Miss Lillian, I've had a question since the beginning."

"Huh?"

"Why aren't you afraid of me since you know I'm a traveling witch?"

"Huh? Because...... Because since you're a traveling witch, you're not a monster. ”

"However, there shouldn't be a clear statement, the traveling witch must be a good person, right? If I'm a bad guy who kills people without blinking, isn't that more terrible than a monster? ”

"......" The smile on Lilian's face froze when she heard Summer Night's words.
