Chapter 91: 74 Don’t engage in that kind of thing... referring to giving birth (Three Chapters of 11000 words, please subscribe)

With the departure of the Forbidden Army, Caster and Guinevere were also taken back to their residence by two Catastrophe Messengers, while Le Cheng led the Blood Grinding Beast, following behind Anna’s rear.

"I say, Divine Envoy, what’s the matter with you, riding the Blood Grinding Beast in a frenzy through the Royal Court, it’s utterly absurd. Did you know, when I first heard about it, I thought someone was joking with me."

"It was a spur of the moment thing. Did Queen Morgan send you?"

"Of course, after all, you’ve caused such a big stir, it won’t be long before the news of you taming the Blood Grinding Beast will spread throughout the entire Royal Court. Although I don’t know what the Queen’s plan is, things have come to this point, and she has to make a decision quickly."

That’s wonderful!

Le Cheng chuckled silently to himself. Until now, only a very few people knew that he had tamed the Blood Grinding Beast... Although it might spread widely among the common folk since those civilians he had saved in Hinamizawa village would definitely spread the word, rumors among the common folk could hardly serve as an official basis, and others who knew could still be briefly suppressed by Morgan’s power.

At least pressing it for seven to eight days, allowing the news to spread only within a small circle, wouldn’t be a problem.

During this time, it would probably be enough for Morgan to think about how to deal with him.

But now, after this event, even if Morgan wanted to suppress it, she couldn’t. She must summon him as soon as possible and reveal his identity publicly. Only by doing so could she avoid questioning, since the appearance of a Divine Envoy could potentially completely reverse the Empire’s disadvantage in combating Khorne.

On the other hand, as long as Morgan was willing to meet and converse with him, with his charm, wasn’t taking down this wicked woman a breeze?

"Anyway, the Queen was furious at the time, saying you were too imprudent. You better be careful later, and don’t anger the Queen again... Oh my, where’s my lipstick?" Suddenly, Anna started frantically searching through her pockets.

"What lipstick?"

"Of course, the kind you apply on the lips. Recently, the weather has been dry and cold, I don’t have the same skincare abilities as the Queen, my lips might crack easily, so I specially queued up to buy this, it’s a very rare coral red shade... oh no, it’s gone, gone, I must have lost it in the rush when I came out." Anna looked utterly dejected.

Seeing her interesting expression, Le Cheng couldn’t help but laugh.

"It’s all your fault, and you laugh?" Anna puffed up her face angrily.

"All right, all right, it’s my fault. Next time, I’ll send you a bunch of lipstick, red, white, black, yellow, all kinds."

"Really?"

"Of course, I, Le, always keep my word."

"Then I’ll look forward to it."

"By the way, I heard you were adopted by the Queen and are quite close to her, so you must know her well, right?"

"Well, sort of. Even though many people see the Queen as stern and serious, hard to approach, she’s actually a very kind person, especially towards us young witches, always providing special care, it’s just... the Queen seems to not like humans very much."

"Not like humans?"

"Yeah." Anna nodded, "It might be because of the events two hundred years ago. The witches of that era faced some unpleasant experiences, and the first thing everyone learns upon awakening as a witch is to understand that history. It’s not that we’re promoting hatred but to ensure that everyone remembers how difficult it is for witches to have their current lives. Some witches with more extreme personalities may develop negative emotions, which requires the guidance of more senior witches. However, the Queen’s experiences are a bit unique, leading her to value power highly and not be very fond of humans."

"What about you?"

"Me?" After a moment of consideration and a sheepish smile, Anna responded, "I don’t really have any feelings about it, honestly. Things from 200 years ago are too distant for me, the history in the books always lacks some realism. But I understand that my current living conditions are thanks to the sacrifices and efforts of the previous generations of witches, including the first witch Helena, both her and every witch after her, as well as Queen Morgan."

"That includes the Empire too, whether good or bad, the past shaped who we are today."

"So, I don’t really dislike anything, it’s more about feeling grateful. Although I’m currently quite an incompetent witch without powerful abilities, I am earnestly studying every day. Eventually, I will become a qualified witch and take on the responsibilities I should bear."

"Ha, I’ve said a bunch of confusing stuff, you must find it boring, right?"

Anna suddenly realized she had been rambling and scratched her head, smiling awkwardly.

"Not at all, hearing you talk about this, it actually makes me realize more about a real witch." Le Cheng patted her head with a smile, "I heard that witches’ powers and lifespan decline after they marry and have children, have you thought about getting married and having children in the future?"

"Ah? Why bring this up all of a sudden?" Anna suddenly became alert, "You aren’t having any weird ideas about me, are you? Although you’re a Divine Envoy and quite good-looking, I’m just an underage witch..."

"You’re overthinking it. I was just reminded by the recent situation between Gawain and the witch Haima, their relationship seems not very good, just curious."

"Oh, I see." Anna breathed a sigh of relief, "It’s not Haima’s fault, really. Her disciple is enormously talented. If she continues to grow, she might even surpass Haima and become the strongest Thunder witch. But after marrying Gawain, her abilities ceased to improve. It’s understandable for Haima to be regretful and resentful towards Gawain."

So that’s how it is.

It seems this is one of the reasons why Morgan would be hostile towards me.

Anna had mentioned before, Morgan highly values power.

"Knowing that marrying and having children would diminish her powers and lifespan, why would a witch still choose to marry?"

"...Perhaps it’s because of love?" Anna pondered seriously, then pointing at herself, "Look, I am now eighteen years old, but with the average lifespan of a normal witch being around one hundred and forty years, if converted to ordinary human age, I’m just a little girl slightly over ten years old, yet we experience time just like normal people."

"Moreover, witches need to undergo rigorous training to master their powers. During this time, others can’t provide much help. It’s lonely and isolating, which could lead some witches to become introverted. Even now, there still exists a gap between witches and ordinary people, because most people think that the biological characteristics of witches and humans are different, including the witches themselves."

"Conversely, a witch marrying and having children is actually a process of becoming human again."

"So to me, compared to ordinary people, witches might be even more desirous of love. When true love appears before them, it is like someone who has been in the dark for a long time suddenly sees the light, and then throws themselves at it without any reservations..."

Le Cheng looked at Anna, his eyes filled with surprise, "I didn’t expect you, at such a young age, to have such unique insights."

"Ha ha, that’s probably related to my upbringing. The Queen never put me through those lonely trainings, although this caused my abilities to improve very slowly. Because I never experienced those times of solitude and loneliness, I’ve always maintained an optimistic and cheerful attitude. Strictly speaking, I am somewhat of an anomaly among witches."

Hearing this, Le Cheng suddenly had a thought.

"So does that mean, you, who has always lived in sunlight, have a stronger resistance to love?"

"Now that you think about it, it seems so."

"According to what you said, that kind of enclosed training leads to most witches developing somewhat extreme personalities and the nature of a moth drawn to the flame. Knowing this, Morgan trained you in a whole new way to ensure you wouldn’t end up like your predecessors. But evidently, Morgan herself grew up through that enclosed training, otherwise, you wouldn’t say you’re an anomaly among witches..."

Saying this, Le Cheng stared into Anna’s eyes. "Do you think there is a possibility that Morgan’s resistance to love is actually far weaker than yours?"

Because of this lower resistance, that’s why Morgan is so angry and harbors such hostility towards him.

Anna listened to these words, standing frozen for a while, then suddenly became alert again.

"Wait! What are you planning to do to the Queen?!"

...

No matter what Le Cheng intended to do to Morgan, right now, Morgan was in a very bad mood, feeling almost like she would explode.

Why? Why would she do such things in the crystal ball?

Utterly shameless, so disgraceful!

Could it be that her divination method was incorrect?

This thought dawned on Morgan, and suddenly her eyes lit up—yes, surely she got the method wrong, and a repeat would bring a vastly different result.

Thus, Morgan quickly fetched a backup crystal ball.

This time, she did not employ a traditional divination method but used a new one, which would reinforce her convictions, as long as she believed in her own willpower, nothing could scare her.

Then, when she looked into the crystal ball again...

"Dear, it seems my stomach is getting bigger..."

Pfft!

Crack!

Along with a spurt of fresh blood, the innocent crystal ball shattered once more in Morgan’s claws.

Damn it, why does the future keep getting more outrageous?

I don’t want that kind of thing!!!
