Witch Punk 2840

Chapter 17 Your Wish
"In the story, the king is undoubtedly a bad person, but also a powerful person. He rules a country and can decide the life and death of others with one word. For such a powerful and dangerous existence, when he announces that he needs to marry a wife At the beginning, there were so many people applying, this is what I find most interesting..."

Xia Ye paused, used a spoon to divide a piece of stewed fish, and poured it down his throat.

After swallowing the fish meat with the soup, she continued: "What do they think? Could it be that the glory and wealth after becoming a queen blinded their eyes? They actually took the initiative to approach such a powerful and unpredictable existence ? Don’t say that the king is cruel by nature, even if he is a person with no malice, because of his powerful power, it is also possible for various inexplicable reasons to decapitate the people around him.”

"Hmm..." Lilian understood what Xia Ye meant. She thought for a while and asked again: "But Shan Ruzod didn't die. Not only did he not die, but he also succeeded in influencing the king."

"That's right." Xia Ye nodded her neck, "But the reason for this is not because she is kind enough, but because she has enough wisdom. Power does not necessarily mean strength in force or power, and the same goes for having superior wisdom. It is a kind of power. Therefore, Shan Ruzod is different from other people who were executed by the king. She is a powerful person, an existence that can be equal to the king in strength. That is why she can protect herself from being kill, and die with the king at last."

"..."

Lilian didn't continue to ask questions. She was silent for a long time, then suddenly raised her head, her big blue eyes stared at Xia Ye: "Sure enough... Sister Xia Ye already guessed something?"

"It's just a vague guess." Xia Ye said frankly: "Since you first learned that I am a traveling witch, your attitude towards me is like a different person, becoming very...excited. And this is definitely not just Out of respect for the traveling witch, I guess, to you, the traveling witch must have some special meaning?"

"Sister Xia Ye is really sharp." Lilian smiled sheepishly.

She hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Actually, I am a descendant of a traveling witch."

Xia Ye nodded her neck, motioning for her to continue.

"According to my mother, she gave birth to my egg in the etheric sea. After laying the egg, she continued her journey with the egg, and came to Debusota not long after.

"She temporarily lived in this city, and after I broke out of the shell, she continued to support me for two years..."

According to the common sense she learned from Lilian and Xia Ye's own estimation, she knew that when the witch broke out of her shell, her physical and mental age was about equal to that of a human two or three-year-old child.

And in the next period of time, witches will grow at an astonishing rate, and two years after breaking their shells, they will grow into 12-year-old girls equivalent to human beings.

And then, the witch's growth rate will obviously slow down until it stops completely, and their appearance will not change in the slightest for the rest of their long lifespan.As a result, most witches appear younger than their actual age.

"That was your happiest time?" Xia Ye guessed based on his past experience as a human being.

Unexpectedly, Lilian shook her head.

"Actually, I didn't have much feeling about those two years." She said, "My mother is always very busy, and I don't have much time at home every day. In addition to giving me enough magic power to replenish and enough food to eat, There are dozens of sets of clothes that I can choose to wear at will, and she hardly cares about me for other things."

"Then do you hate her?"

"Of course not!" Lilian shook her head vigorously. "Actually, I... admire her very much. I think she must be very powerful. That's why I have to deal with so many things and meet so many people every day. Later, I heard others call her ' Traveling Witch-sama', seeing that everyone respects her, the feeling of admiration is even stronger."

"and after?"

"Later... when I was two years old, she suddenly handed me several contracts, saying that she had bought several houses in the mid-level area and the downtown area, enough to support my future life. At that time, I immediately understood her So I asked, "Is my mother leaving me?" She nodded calmly.

"'I'm a traveling witch,' she said, 'and it's impossible to stay in one place forever. In fact, De Busota is already the city I've stayed in the longest, as to the reason—probably because of the need to wait. you grow up.'

"'Can you take me with you, mother?' I asked again at that time. But the other party simply refused: 'You are too weak, and you don't seem to have much talent at the moment. If I take you, not only will you May be killed by various dangers in the ether sea, and may drag me down.'

"'Stay here, and rent out the houses I've left you, and you'll have a modest but secure life.'"

"After saying these words, the mother jumped on the broom and flew away without thinking. Since then, I have never seen her again, nor have I heard any news about her. For her , I am just a small episode in her long journey.

"However, since she left, I have often thought—how wonderful it would be if she could take me on a trip, so that I could go to different places, see different people and things, and even defeat various opponents like her. This kind of dangerous enemy, instead of being trapped in this city forever, living a similar life every day."

"Oh?" Xia Ye's tone brought a little smile: "If you want to take an adventure outside, it shouldn't be impossible, right? You can also be a traveling witch like your mother, or go... Whale? According to your introduction, whaling also involves entering the depths of the etheric sea."

Lilian hummed lightly, and said, "Sister Xia Ye knew the answer, but she deliberately asked me this way. I admit it——I'm very timid, and like my mother said, I don't have much use for senior witches." The talent of the contract, so don't talk about being a traveling witch, I dare not even try whaling."

Xia Ye was amused by Lilian's "bad performance", she let out a few laughs from her throat, and said: "I didn't mean to make fun of you, but I just need to confirm this first, so that I can know whether my guess is correct. Now I can finally be sure-what exactly is the wish you have been trying to ask of me."

"..." Lilian didn't answer, but just looked at Xia Ye anxiously, as if waiting for her sentence.

"You want me to take you, don't you?" Xia Ye said, "Take you to continue my next journey, across the etheric sea, from one city to another, to satisfy you that you failed to get from your mother Regrets fulfilled there."
