Chapter 258: Chapter 242 Witch’s Choice
As he left Dragon Island, Lette reached out to the sky.
Then, countless beams of light fell from the sky, forming a massive Light Cage, sealing the entire Dragon Island.
From a distance, it looked like a birdcage.
Lette also set up several warning arrays outside the birdcage before turning to fly toward Harbor City.
The initial part of his transaction with the Wise Sage was complete. He had now obtained all the information about the Witches’ Plan inside the Tower of Truth.
This content once again stirred Lette’s murderous intent; had he not already sworn an oath, he might have acted on the spot, reducing the other to ashes.
Although the Wise Sage is struggling to survive, her end will come in ten days.
Lette was also somewhat concerned about Emily and the others’ situation; returning to recuperate might be a good choice.
In the blink of an eye, Lette had returned to Harbor City.
Most of the residents had already fled far from the city, as Harbor City was the closest city to Dragon Island.
The recent earth-shattering battle caused such a commotion that ordinary people naturally chose to flee first.
Fortunately, a large number of believers from the Flesh God Sect remained, maintaining the order and operations of Harbor City.
Lette did not disturb them but chose to quietly return to his reliable grocery store.
As soon as he entered the backyard, Lilith ran over first and threw herself into his arms.
"Are you alright?"
"I’m fine, it’s just Dragon Island."
"But I heard there was someone on Dragon Island who could use powerful conceptual powers."
"There is, but they’re not that strong..."
Lette held Lilith’s hand and briefly explained the ins and outs of the situation to her.
After all, with Lilith’s higher rank, her perspective was broader, making it easier for Lette to explain.
"Unexpectedly, they’re from another world—that really was unforeseen."
"Uh-huh, it’s not that strange."
"No, inter-world teleportation is something even some primitive Gods born locally might not possess. Not to mention, a mortal mastering it and being able to transfer other mortals without loss.
I wonder if she has this technology in her mind."
Lette thought for a moment: "She should have it, considering she claims to have inherited all her parents’ knowledge, which should include this part.
Of course, the cost of this ability is life. Perhaps her parents erased this part deliberately to prevent her from abusing it..."
Lilith clutched Lette’s arm: "I guess the knowledge in that woman’s mind includes many forbidden items. We need to categorize and treat them differently once obtained.
Otherwise, we might accidentally cause big troubles."
"Don’t worry about that."
Having stayed with Lette for so long, Lilith’s thought process had gradually aligned with his.
At the very least, like Lette, she had come to see this world as their shared garden.
Lette disliked anyone causing trouble in his garden, and naturally, Lilith disliked it too.
"How is Emily?"
"She’s alright, actually fortunate from misfortune. After bearing the powers needed from me and Joanna, her bodily toughness and sensitivity to the Power of Laws have all improved.
Her path to ascension will be immensely smooth in the future."
Lette clapped his hands: "I understand, it’s like when a new car drives on a highway for the first time; it runs more smoothly afterward."
"The more you explain, the less I understand."
Lilith turned to observe Dragon Island locked tight by the Light Cage. From this direction, it looked even more like a birdcage.
"The prelude to the apocalypse has begun. As you say, she plans to devour all four great Disaster Beasts, even eyeing the Final Dragon.
If she truly succeeds, can the seal you set up still hold?"
"Of course, I’ve taken all this into account."
"What does she really want to do?"
Lette took a deep breath at the door: "If I’m not mistaken, she intends to lure the Eternal Dragon Clan to this world for investigation, setting this world up as a trap.
But things didn’t go as she wished, as her conspiracy was exposed and thwarted by us.
Now the trap is gone..."
"But there’s something here even more terrifying than the trap... you?"
Lilith pointed towards Dragon Island: "That despicable woman, she’s trying to use you?"
"The use is mutual."
Lette grinned: "I’m using her too. I need the arrival of the Eternal Dragon Clan."
Lilith didn’t originally understand, but as she looked at the door, it suddenly clicked.
"I get it. You’re going to... as you often say, kill the chicken to warn the monkey?
The Fairy Tale Element Subspace is a new vein coveted by the Gods, sure to attract some ill-intentioned individuals in the future.
If this time you massacre the Eternal Dragon Clan, it will intimidate those Gods.
No, you’re actually killing the monkey to warn the chickens.
You intend to establish authority with the Eternal Dragon Clan!"
"Clever."
Lette tapped Lilith’s forehead before pushing the door and entering the room.
The vast room was crowded; not only were Alice and The Liar Demon present, but even Unica and Gretel had returned from the sea.
"Brother, you’re finally back."
Alice rushed forward, grabbing Lette’s hand, tears glistening in her eyes.
"Brother, please check on Sister Emily! She... her condition is very bad."
Lette gently patted her head: "Don’t worry, your Sister Emily will be fine. Moreover, she will undergo a qualitative leap.
Because, her banquet can commence."
Upon hearing the word ’banquet,’ Lilith immediately stepped forward.
"Really?"
"Of course. Didn’t I already say, I obtained all the information on the Witches’ Plan from the Wise Sage."
"So... which Witch does Emily correspond to?"
"Actually, we guessed it right, Emily corresponds to Beauty and the Beast. But we also guessed wrong because her situation is the opposite of Unica’s.
She is the fusion of Beauty and the Beast."
Lilith furrowed her brow: "I understand every word you said, but I don’t understand what you mean.
What do you mean by fusion, so she’s... Beastly Beauty?"
"Emily is the Elemental Witch, her existence itself is meant to deal with the Elves. And her true identity is not an All Element Mage.
She is an All Element Druid.
Mastering all elements is just a prerequisite for a Druid."
Upon hearing this, Lilith suddenly understood.
"Oh! So that’s it, no wonder her magic teacher never taught her any proper magic all along.
Turns out, he knew from the start that Emily was not a Mage, but a Druid.
So he didn’t nurture her as an All Element Mage from the start.
Druids have Beast’s Soul within them, no wonder she occasionally displays beast-like instincts...
But you said her banquet has already started, what does that mean?"
Lette took out his button: "Actually, the banquet conditions for all witches are the same.
That is, Death and Rebirth.
Princess Snow White, Alice in Dreams, Daughter of the Sea, and Cinderella are all like this.
Beauty and the Beast, even more so.
The Tower of Truth created the witches, but as many fairy tales narrate.
Witches themselves, also have the right to choose.
Of course, I’m not worried about Emily, she’s a good captain.
But now, she just needs a little bit of death’s aura to help."
