Chapter 626: Chapter 452: Want to Taste the Flavor of a Witch? (4)

Adelina’s words took Qin Chu by surprise.

What was going on?

Having said just a few words, and he became the person of destiny?

For a moment, Qin Chu was stunned.

Leaning on the bedside, Little Saye, who had been silent all along, finally couldn’t hold back. A mocking expression was clearly visible on her face: "What a joke, don’t you not believe in destiny?"

"Moreover, what makes you say that Qin Chu is your person of destiny?"

She was extremely annoyed.

Originally, she only needed to ensure Qin Chu’s safety, and whatever Qin Chu and Adelina said or did had absolutely nothing to do with her, but she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"No, I very much believe in destiny."

Even faced with the more powerful Little Saye, Adelina did not relinquish her pride and grace, correcting the mistake in Little Saye’s words:

"I just couldn’t accept the arrangement of destiny and made a little bit of resistance."

The corners of the Pride Witch’s lips curled into a provocative arc: "It seems you care a lot about this man?"

Little Saye snorted disdainfully: "My taste isn’t that poor."

Tsk.

Her mouth was as venomous as ever, and although she was already used to Little Saye’s personality, hearing this was still hurtful.

"That’s good, then whether he is the person of my destiny or not, it has nothing to do with you, right?"

Two pairs of eyes, one black and one crimson, stared at each other in mid-air, where seemingly sparks were flickering.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Qin Chu seemed to hear crackling sounds.

"Ahem, Miss Adelina, let’s set aside the matter of the person of destiny for now, please continue," Qin Chu hurriedly interrupted the confrontation between the two.

He didn’t want to see two witches fighting here; the Royal City might be doomed.

Only then did Adelina withdraw her gaze: "In any case, I noticed the Hidden Society, and I spied on the God they worshipped... Let us call Him the Star Devourer for now."

"I originally wanted to destroy the Hidden Society, as within the Kingdom it was a formidable organization, but to me, it was no stronger than a mosquito."

"However, just when I was about to make my move, I changed my mind. I appeared at their gathering and requested to join the Hidden Society, to become a member."

"They agreed?" Qin Chu seriously doubted this point.

The Pride Witch nodded happily: "Of course, we had a friendly exchange, and then they were very happy to accept my membership application."

"Although the process of the exchange was so lively that some people ended up bloodied, those were just small flaws, not worth fussing over."

Alright, Qin Chu now knew what kind of exchange Adelina had with the members of the Hidden Society.

"What about the leader of the Hidden Society? I heard that it was a very mysterious existence, no one even knew whether it was male or female," Qin Chu continued to ask.

"Oh, you mean..." Adelina seemed troubled; she appeared to have forgotten that person’s name: "That old man, after I joined, he was no longer necessary, so I kindly sent him to meet the God he worshipped."

Indeed very kind.

"After joining the Hidden Society, I learned their ritual ceremonies, I studied their prayers."

Adelina’s face flashed with a proud and excited expression: "After learning them, I finally, through the rituals, made contact with the God in the Void, the enemy in my destiny."

"Such a powerful creature, indeed."

"It’s probably been more than a decade now, but I still cannot forget what it was like when I first saw the Star Devourer; I could feel His power, trembling my soul."

"I realized how insignificant I was in His presence."

"And then, I launched an attack on God."

Little Saye’s eyes also widened greatly.

Qin Chu’s heart was also somewhat shocked.

This witch truly lived up to the name of Pride, afraid of neither heaven nor earth.

Little Saye, too, had felt a strange warning branded in her soul at the time of her creation, not to spy into the Void. With the Dark Witch’s personality out there, if she was told not to peek, then she wouldn’t; it was no big deal.

But the Pride Witch was different; the more you told her not to do something, the more she wanted to do it. Not only did she want to search for God in the Void, but once she found Him, she also wanted to fight Him.

Even Little Saye felt some admiration for Adelina, at least compared to herself, Adelina’s will and courage were definitely admirable.

"What happened then?"

"I failed, if I hadn’t escaped quickly, my soul might have been obliterated in the Void?" Adelina did not conceal her failure.

Failed?

No, this was not a failure at all; to provoke God actively and still be able to safely return was already an unprecedented great victory.

That was Adelina; she was not willing to resign herself to destiny.

Whether it was against the Believers of the Gods or the Gods themselves.

She was like a playful child who had found the most amusing toy and was tireless in her enjoyment.

She didn’t even care whether she could survive, or rather, it would be better if she died, for once she died, she would have broken the trajectory that fate had defined for her.

Unfortunately, over the years, whether it was destroying one Church of Evil God Believers after another or encountering Gods forty or fifty times in at least two or three encounters each year over the recent decade, none of those instances led to Adelina’s death.

It even made Adelina’s will to fight more and more intense.

The dozens of confrontations with Gods also made Adelina’s strength grow stronger, and Little Saye could sense that although both were Level 99, Adelina was closer to the realm of a Demigod than Ireta.

It was for this reason that the Hidden Society had not been eradicated by Adelina yet; she wanted to see what kind of reaction God would have when He discovered His Believers had been deceived by her.

It was only this time that Adelina finally interrupted the confrontation with God and emerged from her place of seclusion.

Upon witnessing Qin Chu’s confrontation with the Divine Will and even crushing God’s skull with her own hand, Adelina finally confirmed that Qin Chu was the man destined for her.

This was a secret hidden in Adelina’s heart, which she had never shared with anyone.

At this moment, pouring out all her experiences in one breath, Adelina also felt a great relief in her chest.

This was a powerful, proud, and crazy woman.

And this pride and madness revealed a different kind of attraction in this woman.

After a brief silence, Adelina spoke again, "Dark Witch, and Hero... My condition, I think you both must have already noticed."

Qin Chu and Little Saye both frowned deeply.

In fact, when Adelina first appeared, both of them had already sensed Adelina’s weirdness, though neither had voiced their suspicions.

Adelina possessed an incredibly powerful and violent energy, close to destructive.

However, what didn’t match her own energy at all was that Adelina’s soul was extremely weak.

Like a candle in the wind, it could extinguish at any moment.

Qin Chu even wondered how such a weakened soul could control such terrifying energy?

Perhaps, what Adelina relied on was that proud, unyielding will.

Confronting God was not without injury, and with each confrontation, Adelina’s soul suffered a certain degree of wear. The cumulative wear over a decade was difficult for even Adelina to bear.

Yet, this witch never feared, never retreated, never surrendered.

"My soul is not strong enough to thrust at the Gods again, I may vanish at any moment, but I have never regretted the path I chose."

Even if she might die completely the next second, her face still radiated a proud demeanor.

"And you, are very much like me."

"What enables me to stand upright is the pride in my nature."

"What supports you in confronting Gods, I don’t know, but I believe it must be a strong power."

"Actually, I’m not sure if you are really the person destined for me, my soul is so weak that I can’t perceive as clearly... but, it doesn’t matter, just the courage to confront Gods is enough."

In the room, only Adelina’s voice resonated.

Qin Chu and Little Saye did not know what to say for a moment.

"Do you seem to feel sorry for me?" Adelina was a bit suspicious, she tilted her head, showing a rare cute pose, "Why? After all, we’ve just met."

"Perhaps, because we are both fighting the same existence," Qin Chu said quietly.

"Is that so? So are we comrades in arms?"

"However, no need to feel sad, I have destroyed dozens of Churches of Evil God believers, eradicated hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of believers, I rebelled against fate, confronted the Gods. In this thousand-year-long life, I have no regrets; I only have pride for what I’ve experienced over these millennia."

"If possible, I hope to have like-minded companions smiling as I depart," Adelina said quietly.

After a brief pause, Adelina looked up again, "Lastly, there’s something I must leave to you."

"First, a piece of advice... try to defy fate."

"Fate is intangible and elusive, yet it always affects you. Try to glimpse the traces of the path set by fate, and then... break it."

"While it may seem ironic for me to say this, the moment I met you might have proved that I am ultimately unable to escape the shackles of fate."

Qin Chu wore a grave expression, pondered the course of fate?

While it sounds easy, the act is fraught with difficulties; you simply cannot tell which parts of your experiences are actually arranged by fate.

"The second thing..."

As she spoke, Adelina stood up and took two steps toward Qin Chu, her tall figure towering as she gazed down at him.

She even extended a fair hand to grasp Qin Chu’s chin, examining him from all angles, "Quite good."

"I am ready to pass the authority of Pride to you."

"So, Mr. Brave, would you like to taste the flavor of a witch?"
