Chapter 281 Me in another world

December 2084, 12, 27:1 midnight

After finishing the conversation with Xia Ye, the city lord still couldn't fall asleep.

Even if she changed her body, her habits as a witch still remained, and she didn't need much sleep. The main reason is that what Xia Ye just said to her made her unable to help but think about it again and again:

Can I ever see my sister again? Or is the "Xia Ye" in front of her really her sister? Who are you? Why do you appear in this dream? Is there any deeper meaning?

She was not good at thinking, but when faced with these questions that could not be concluded, the more she thought about it, the more irritated she became. Finally, the city lord decided to simply get up and go outside to relax.

But the next second, she was surprised to find that she couldn't control her body.

No... it should be said to be the body of "Xia Ye's sister".

Because she clearly sensed the existence of another soul, which took control of her body, just like two people crowded into a single room, but she was not the owner of the room.

This soul...should be Xia Ye's sister.

Didn't that guy swear that everything here is just her memory? Why is her sister's soul also there? !
A surprised but unsurprising feeling arose in the city lord's heart - the liar's words were indeed unbelievable!

She withdrew her attention and looked curiously at the soul who shared the same body with her:

The other party's appearance is almost exactly the same as hers, except that her face is a little childish. According to Xia Ye, her sister has just turned 15 years old at this time. The girl was floating in the dark space, her eyes closed and her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was having a nightmare.

...Nightmare?
Is it because your presence makes the other person feel uneasy?
Although she hated that "summer night", she didn't feel any hostility towards her sister. Perhaps it was because the other person was like her other self - she would never hate "herself".

The city lord stretched out his finger and gently poked the girl's pink face.

"Ah ah--"

The other party screamed and woke up immediately, and then she saw the city lord standing in front of her.

"……Who are you?"

"This witch's name is Dong Zhou, the largest shareholder of 'Ether Exploration', the city lord of Debsuota City, and the only level 9 great witch." The city lord said.

Dong Zhou: "???"

……

After about an hour of conversation, Dong Zhou finally grasped the general situation. This was mainly due to her strong understanding and logical analysis skills. Otherwise, according to the city lord's chaotic expression level, I am afraid that it would not be possible to talk for another hour. Can't tell clearly.

"To put it simply, you are from a magical world, and your soul has traveled to our world. My brother thinks that this place is just his memory, not an entity. But because you saw my soul, you have doubts about his statement. In addition, you have seen my soul. , According to my brother’s memory, I will die in seven days…well, six days later, right?”

"Uh...right!"

The city lord was surprised at how the other party summarized a lot of what he said in just two sentences.

"Hmm..." Dong Zhou touched her small chin and began to think.

After waiting for several minutes, seeing that the other party was still deep in thought, the city lord finally couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you look anxious at all? It's obvious that you lied... I mean your brother said that you will die in six days, you Aren't you afraid?"

"Afraid." Dong Zhou said.

Looking at the girl's calm look, the city lord felt that this answer was not convincing at all.

Dong Zhou added and explained: "But think about it, if my brother's memory is true, then no matter what I do, I can't change what has happened, and there is no point in rushing; if it is false, or it can be easily changed, So the so-called statement that 'I will die in six days' is not convincing at all, so why should I be anxious?"

City Lord: "..."

She couldn't refute it at all, but she still felt that something was wrong with the other party. This "Xia Ye's sister" was so rational that she seemed to have no emotions at all. Even in a board of directors full of antiques, it would be difficult to find such a rational person.

"Compared with the so-called 'death in six days', I am more curious about the reason why you are here, especially the reason why you are here." Dong Zhou added.

"why?"

"According to what you just told me, you are very powerful, right? To be more specific, you are the most powerful witch in the city called Debsotta?"

"That's right!" The city lord nodded proudly.

"But even a being as powerful as you is involuntarily sent to this world by some mysterious force. This shows that that force is stronger than you. And it takes such a powerful force to achieve one thing. There is often some special deep-seated reason, or in other words - meaning, just like the reason why Reis was sent back to the past to save Sarah who was being hunted by the Terminator was because Sarah's son Connor was in the future. Become the leader of the human resistance."

"Connor? Sarah? Terminator?" The city owner looked curious.

"Ah, I'm sorry, this is a very famous movie in our world. I used it as a metaphor casually... Huh? You want to know the plot of this movie?"

Seeing that the city lord nodded sheepishly, Dong Zhou had to spend another 10 minutes recounting the plot of "Terminator".

"Oh~~~ The movies in your world are quite interesting! When I'm usually bored, I also like... uh, ahem..."

In the middle of speaking, the city lord suddenly realized that it was damaging to his majestic image as the "strongest witch" and stopped hastily.

Then, she saw Dong Zhou smile - she originally thought that the other person would always have that expressionless expression.

But that smile only lasted for less than a second. Dong Zhou then speculated: "Therefore, 'meaning' is probably the most critical core of the whole thing. If it can be clarified, perhaps all questions can be easily solved."

"What you said makes sense..." The city lord suddenly realized.

It would be great if the other party could follow her back to Debsota. She couldn't help but think that she could ask her all the messy questions in the board of directors...

Dong Zhou's question interrupted her fantasy: "So, can you tell me what special abilities you have?"

"what?"

"Even if I just said 'meaning', the reason why you are here must be because you can play a certain role to achieve this 'meaning', right?" Dong Zhou explained patiently.

"Special ability..." Speaking of this, the city owner suddenly became excited, and even his thoughts became a little clearer:

"There are too many, such as the 'Witch's Flame', which is a black flame that is almost impossible to extinguish before burning the enemy to death; and the 'Flicker of Flame Shadow', which can teleport people to a hundred meters Besides; there is also..."

She talked for a full ten minutes and finally came to the end: "...Finally, there is the super powerful 'Ruin of Disaster'. If used at full strength, the entire city can be reduced to ashes!"

Dong Zhou listened carefully and did not interrupt her once. When the other party finally finished speaking, she asked: "These abilities you mentioned are all derived from the 'Witch Contract' you mentioned before, right?"

"Yes." The city lord nodded.

"Then can you use the abilities of these contracts now?"

"No, because there is not a trace of magic in my body - no, it should be said in your body, not even the cup."

Dong Zhou pondered for a moment: "Then...is there any witch contract that can be used without magic power?"

"How is it possible that there is such a contract...ah! It does exist, and I have signed it, although I have never used it."

"What is it?"

"Prayer... is a 'prayer'!" At this time, even the city lord realized that he and Dong Zhou seemed to have found the key.

"What kind of contract is prayer? Can you explain it in detail?" Dong Zhou asked next.

The city lord quickly described the rules of the contract in detail.

"Pay the price in advance and make your wish come true...it turns out there is such a magical magic." After hearing this, Dong Zhou couldn't help but sigh.

"Can we try it out?"

"I don't care, what wish do you want?" the city lord asked.

Dong Zhou thought for a moment: "Just pray that dad's illness can be cured."

"sick?"

"Liquefaction disease is a terminal disease in our world." She briefly described liquefaction disease.

"It sounds really scary... Actually, I don't recommend you to pray for this wish, because the price to be paid in advance must be very high, and if the advance payment is less, not only will the wish not be realized, but the price will have to be paid." The city lord said .

"A big price? How much is it specifically?" Dong Zhou asked.

The city owner spread his hands: "How do I know? In short, it's probably too big for you to accept."

"I see."

Dong Zhou lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "I've thought about the price."

"What is it?"

"In order to cure my father's illness, I am willing to accept the tragic ending of 'my future brother is seduced by another bad woman, and I can only humblely pray for him to look at me more every day.'"

The city lord looked at her like a madman, and after a while, he spit out a syllable from his mouth: "...Haaa??"

But Dong Zhou pressed his hands on his chest, his eyes were serious and sad, and he didn't seem to be joking at all.

"You...you..." The city lord said "you" for a long time, and finally composed the second half of the sentence: "...your price is too small, right? It can't be realized, it absolutely can't be realized!"

"You're not young!"

Speaking of his brother, Dong Zhou even raised his voice by two points, "Brother promised me in the past that he would marry me as his bride in the future, and only me!"

"When was it in the past?"

"When I was six, my brother was seven."

City Lord: "Although I don't understand you humans very well, at six years old, it's probably equivalent to when we witches just came out of the egg, right? We don't know anything at all."

"Brother and I are both geniuses. We already knew everything when we were six years old. Don't compare us with you." Dong Zhou said angrily.

"..." The city lord felt as if he was being despised.

"Okay, okay, anyway, it's you who prays, and you're the one who bears the price. It doesn't matter to me." She gave up persuading the other party, "Then shall I start?"

Dong Zhou nodded.

The city lord set the "wish" and "price" through his mind, and then read out the long witch text representing the "prayer" contract. Since she is "Dongzhi" at this moment, the power of the contract will also Acts on Dongzhi.

Theoretically it is.

As the last syllable fell, silence returned to the dark space.

Dong Zhou looked around and looked at himself: "Nothing happened. Did the contract not take effect?"

The city lord shook his head: "I don't know. Sometimes even if the 'prayer' takes effect, there may not be any immediate movement. If something special happens in the next few days, it probably means that your prayer has succeeded."

……

That afternoon, Dong Zhou made a decisive breakthrough in his research in the laboratory.

She successfully composed "Dusk."
