Chapter 671: Chapter 483: The Commission of the Sloth Witch (First Chapter 4000 Words)_2

Rose Vesper felt somewhat stifled, desperately spinning her head, trying to find a way to get this extremely lazy woman to speak.

"Ah, right, can you please kill me?" Just then, the woman spoke, making a rather bizarre request to Rose Vesper.

Rose Vesper’s body trembled slightly, but... this seemed like an opportunity.

The former Holy Daughter’s eyes rolled as she quickly came up with a plan, "Kill you? Of course, but you have to answer some questions first."

The woman was somewhat impatient, but in order to have someone kill her, she still nodded her head.

"Who are you, what is your name, why are you here?" Rose Vesper threw out several questions at once.

"My name... Vera... I think that’s what it’s called, but it’s been so long, I’ve somewhat forgotten," the woman said, cooperating quite well to get Rose Vesper to kill her.

"I should be considered a witch."

Witch.

At the mention of this word, Rose Vesper felt her heart tremble slightly.

Although this woman looked lazy, she was a frightening and mysterious figure; after this woman woke up, Rose Vesper tried to see through her strength only to discover that it resembled a boundless ocean, impossible to discern where the seabed might be.

The mysterious aura emanating from the woman could even directly influence Rose Vesper’s will, indicating from her strength alone, she completely met the standards of a witch.

This was also why Rose Vesper, though angry, had been tolerating this woman until now; otherwise, with Rose’s temper, she would have definitely used another method to pry the woman’s mouth open... physical methods.

While plotting in her mind, Rose Vesper couldn’t help but retort, "A witch? Could it be the Sloth Witch?"

"Huh? How did you know?"

Rose Vesper rubbed her forehead helplessly, well, this woman really was the Sloth Witch.

While the news was shocking, on the other hand, Rose Vesper also found it unsurprising; after all, besides the Sloth Witch, there was nobody else in the world who could be so lazy.

"Then why are you here?" Rose Vesper felt it was probably best not to dwell on this issue with the witch named Vera, otherwise she was sure to be the one who couldn’t endure in the end.

Vera tilted her head in thought, never standing up from the deck, and after some time, it seemed she finally remembered something, "Ah, right, many years ago, it seems there was an old man in Holy Man’s robes chasing me... wanting to fight me."

"I didn’t want to fight him, so I just hid in the fog, and the old man couldn’t follow."

Rose Vesper’s lips twitched slightly, "Then why didn’t you just let that old man kill you at the time?"

"Although I felt life was meaningless at the time, I wasn’t thinking about dying yet."

"What about after that? Have you really been floating in the seawater all these years?" Rose Vesper felt somewhat shocked.

"Um, yes, that’s right, actually, you could try it too, floating on the sea surface feels quite comfortable," Vera responded, her expression revealing she truly believed so, but the more serious she was, the more Rose Vesper felt it was weird.

Even if this person is the Sloth Witch, floating aimlessly on the sea surface for so many years was a bit too exaggerated, right?

"Didn’t you encounter any demons or monsters? How do you eat, haven’t you starved to death?" Rose Vesper didn’t know what to feel anymore.

"Demons or monsters? I should have encountered some, especially after I didn’t want to live anymore. Naturally, I hoped those monsters would eat me, but somehow, although they looked very ugly and scary, after seeing me, they all turned and ran away directly, none of them coming to eat me."

"I absolutely don’t resist, alright?"

Sigh...

Rose Vesper rubbed her forehead again, feeling a headache coming on.

Compared to humans, some creatures like monsters have a much sharper perception.

Surely, they must have sensed that this woman, floating motionless on the sea surface, was actually very dangerous, which is why they had always kept their distance, right?

"As for food... I had actually considered that starving to death might not be so bad, but there always seemed to be fish and shrimp that mysteriously jumped into my mouth. Spitting them out was too much of a hassle, so I just ate them, and thus, I haven’t starved to death," Vera answered honestly.

Rose Vesper didn’t even know what her expression was at the moment, but it must have been quite spectacular.

Sailing through this Endless Sea herself, she hadn’t encountered even a single fish or shrimp, yet this woman always had fish and shrimp magically finding their way into her mouth?

Could it really be so absurd?

It always felt like some mysterious power was constantly protecting this woman, preventing her from dying.

"Ah, right." Vera suddenly patted her head as if she had remembered something very important; the woman who had always been lying on the deck finally stood up... no, floated up.

"I can feel that I carry a very important task that I haven’t been able to complete," she said.

"I need to hand something over to someone."

"Could I ask you to help me complete this task?" Vera’s large eyes stared at Rose Vesper.

With a pile of her own troubles, how could she have the time to help this lazy woman?

"It’s an item of Divine Authority..."

Rose Vesper was just about to refuse, but the words stuck in her throat.

This woman always managed to surprise her.

The identity of a witch was frightening enough, and now there was mention of a Divine Authority?

Rose Vesper was no ordinary person; she knew Super Order Power was the most powerful force ordinary people could wield, but above Super Order, there were even more formidable authorities.

Those were powers only Gods could wield.

Could it be that this Vera was actually a God?

No, she couldn’t possibly be a God.

Rose Vesper had personally experienced the power of a God. Although Vera’s strength was formidable, it was less than that of Augustus when he entered the Demigod Realm, let alone a true God.

Moreover, Vera herself had said she was a witch, the Sloth Witch.

Rose Vesper felt a dryness in her throat as intense greed and jealousy surged within her.

Why?

How could this exceedingly lazy woman possess an Authority that only Gods were supposed to control, while she, herself born with divine blood and being the Holy Daughter of the Holy Court, had not received such a blessing?

Why?

The intense jealousy made Rose Vesper’s beautiful face contort somewhat; she even felt a strong urge to kill this woman outright and seize her Authority.

If she could wield the Divine Authority, would killing Qin Chu be an effortlessly trivial matter?

This journey had unexpectedly yielded such a harvest; indeed, she was God’s daughter, a beloved by the divine.

Rose Vesper quickly suppressed the greed and jealousy in her chest, keeping her emotions in check; she did not rashly attempt to seize it.

After all, this was a being holding a Divine Authority; even with Aili, she might not be a match for this woman. Her face quickly shifted to show a soft, innocent, and pure smile, "Divine Authority? What is that, something I should pass on to someone? Of course, I can do that."

Although Rose Vesper tried hard to control her impulses, her hand involuntarily stretched out, unable to resist the temptation that Divine Authority presented—it was simply too great for her to withstand.

"That Divine Authority, give it to me..."
