Chapter 283: The Witch

"What are you kidding......"

The city lord subconsciously retorted, but immediately after, she reacted that Dongtian was serious.

"You...... Why are you ...... like you're giving your last words," the castle lord frowned, "You know, divination is actually easy to be interfered with by all kinds of strange reasons, so in our place, everyone doesn't like to use divination, maybe you won't encounter anything tomorrow......"

"Hmm." Winter Day did not refute.

On the contrary, the city lord himself added with a weak heart: "Besides, even if you really encounter any danger, and I can help you, I am a super powerful big witch, uh...... You don't need a contract now, but when it comes to dealing with enemies, you don't have the experience, skills, and intuition to deal with your enemies, you know? ”

"Hmm."

"And ...... There is also ...... "the lord of the castle is trying to find a reason," ...... Yes, and your brother, although that guy is very annoying, he is also a super difficult guy to deal with, and if there is any danger, she will definitely find a way to protect you......"

"Hmm...... I know......" Winterday whispered.

"You...... Are you crying? ”

"Nope."

The castle lord suddenly relinquished control of his body, and immediately after, tears rolled down the girl's eyes.

"You still say you don't have ......"

"......" Dongtian didn't respond to her, raised his hand and silently wiped away his tears.

The city lord was silent for a while, and finally said as if he couldn't stand it anymore: "I know! I promise you, okay! In case you do die, I'll take your place as your brother's sister. ”

Dongtian finally smiled with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, another me." You are so cute, my brother will definitely like you, even if you want to marry my brother, I will definitely agree. ”

"But, cute?! Wait a minute...... What does it mean to be married? ”

"You don't know what it means to be married? Also, witches are unisexual...... I'll explain this to you later, I'm going to call now. ”

"Phone?"

"Well, call my brother and tell him about Company Z."

……

“…… The other party claimed to be 'Company Z' and said that he was interested in my recent research results and wanted to meet and talk to me. ”

"How did you reply?"

"I said I wasn't interested. But the other party still did not give up, saying that no matter what conditions 'Asia-Pacific Power' promised, they could give a better one, let me think about it seriously and don't rush to refuse. ”

There was silence on the other end of the line for two seconds, and then Dongdi heard Xia Ye say, "I suggest you promise them." ”

But she pretended not to hear it, for the divination had told her that it was a brother and she would both die.

Sure enough, the elder brother waited for a while, seemed to sigh lightly, and asked again, "Did the other party say anything?" ”

"The other party also asked me to ...... Don't put too much trust in APAC. ”

"Well, I see, I'll be back now."

……

That night, the winter and summer nights were housed in a safe house arranged by APAC.

In the bedroom after the lights out, the winter day lies on the bed, and softly calls in his heart:

"The other me, are you there?"

"Yes, you're finally free?"

The city lord's tone seemed to be jealous, but Dongtian pretended not to hear it: "Can you tell me what the witch's brother looks like?" ”

"It's like this, can't you see it?"

"I can't see it, in my eyes, my brother is still the same as usual."

"Well......" the lord thought for a moment, "you wait. ”

A moment later, the image of a white-haired and red-eyed poor girl suddenly appeared in Dongday's consciousness, and at the same time, the voice of the city lord also came: "This is what your witch brother looks like, her body ...... Also... It's my sister's too. ”

Dongtian said softly: "Brother is so beautiful......"

"Hmm......" The city lord subconsciously wanted to refute, but then he thought that some of them were also his sister's, and immediately swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

"By the way, how did you do that? The appearance of my brother's witch is directly reflected in my mind. Winter Day asked.

"I'm a big witch, my soul is much stronger than yours, plus we are in one body, it's not difficult to interfere with your soul at all."

"That'...... Can you tell me about your world? ”

"Why do you suddenly ask this?"

"Because of curiosity, witches and magic or something, I thought it was only in fantasy, if only I could see it with my own eyes, but now, let's trouble another one for me to tell me."

The lord suddenly realized that if Winter Day's life would end tomorrow, it would indeed be impossible for her to see Debusota and the witch again.

"Okay." Debussota' originally means 'cake tower', and the shape of our city is indeed like a multi-layered cake, with seven magic wells in the center of the city, and outwards are the Upper, Mid, and Lower Towns, where more than 10 million witches live......"

She began to tell Winterday about the city she was born in, grew up in, and ruled, about the magic drill, the city dome, the Aether Sea, and the whales, about the extravagant Upper Town, the bustling Midtown, and the Lower Town of the Law of the Jungle, about her feat of single-handedly killing a dozen level 6 moth beasts, the funny story of Victoria's forcible stripping of the most intimate contract on Evelyn, the "Shadow Witch", and the ...... that happened not long ago Hot news about a summer night with a bankrupt captain out to sea to hunt back a giant white whale.

When encountering something difficult to describe in words, the lord of the castle stuffed the images of his memories directly into the consciousness of the winter day, and the girl lay on her back on her back and saw a magnificent picture that she had never seen in her life—she saw the hideous moth beast struggling in the black flames, she saw the witch riding a broom through the buildings like a school of fish, and she saw the whaling ship cleaving the clouds and sailing in the golden etheric sea......

Suddenly, a teardrop slipped from the corner of the girl's eye.

The lord of the castle stopped.

"You're crying again?" She asked.

"I was so excited that I cried." Dongtian explained.

"......" Even the lord of the castle could hear that she was lying, but she didn't expose her.

"Another me, thank you." Winter Day said suddenly.

"Huh?"

"It's great to be able to listen to you talk about such an interesting world in the last minute."

"Don't talk nonsense......"

"The other me, tell me about it again, I still want to hear it."

“…… Well. ”

So the lord of the city began to speak again, of how good his sister was, of how difficult the directors of the board of directors were, and of everything she could think of about Debussota......

Winter Day listened quietly until sleepiness hit her and dragged her to sleep.

In the dream, she became a witch.

……

Bang!!!

The gunshots exploded, and the bodyguard, codenamed "Circuit Breaker", flew into the living room with a bloody hole in his chest.

The door was kicked open, and heavily armed soldiers rushed in with icy killing intent, and the elder brother suddenly turned around and threw himself down, and almost at the same time, the gunshots rang out again, and rows of bullets passed through the living room like a scythe of death.

During the rolling, Dongtian saw blood, but she didn't feel the pain—it wasn't herself who was hurting, and blood was gushing out of the crack in her brother's shoulder.

She and her brother tumbled onto the balcony, bulletproof glass doors temporarily blocking the bullets, but the killers were approaching, and they could easily shoot him and herself if they took a few more steps.

Suddenly, Winter Day understood everything.

She remembered that she had said to the city lord that the appearance of the other party must have some kind of "meaning", and this "meaning" was the most critical core of the whole thing, and at this moment, she finally understood the content of "meaning"-

It is precisely because of the appearance of the other self that she can know the "prayer", and only the "prayer" can keep her brother alive in this almost mortal fate.

Without hesitation, she read out the witch's text—the last time she used it to her other self, she had memorized the entire spell in a firm manner.

The self and the other self are one, and it is theoretically inferred that as long as one can pronounce all the syllables correctly, the power of the contract should be able to work normally:

“S-r-b-D-lc-R-r-M-t——■-S-m-D-s-f-m-L-r-f-s-D-r-”

As the last syllable fell, the wonderful feeling she had experienced once came again, and the "prayer" took effect, so she quickly made her wish and the price in her heart:

She prayed that her brother would live at the cost of her own life.

- Everything around suddenly slowed down, as if the pause button had been pressed on the button for a movie.

Winterday looked up in amazement, and she saw bullets crawling in mid-air, dragging round shock waves one after another, and she saw the light of the arc solidify at the muzzle of the gun like blooming flowers, and she saw the soldiers—like wax figures with ridiculous movements.

She suddenly realized that it was not that her surroundings had slowed down, but that she had become faster.

She gently broke free from her brother's embrace and walked lightly towards the "wax figures", where she drew her dagger from the tactical belt of one of them and swung it at their bodies. Even though she hadn't killed a chicken, her movements were so skillful that she easily dismembered those bodies and watched with pleasure as the bright red blood bloomed in mid-air......

In this moment, she felt as if she had become a witch.
