She Is Not a Witch

The ancient capital of eternal rime, Titania.

This city, built by humans and elves in the past, is now shrouded in a lingering cold mist, hazy and indistinct. From a distance, only the outline of the city wall and the corroded and weathered complicated patterns on the city gate can be seen. Flowers and vines, the moon and thorns, the patterns that symbolize the Green Empire still remain on it, silently telling its ancient history.

Lorraine Hill and Vimiya fell from the high sky and slowly landed under the huge bronze door. Looking up at the magnificent pattern, they felt the silence of the city.

"It's just a few years away, but it seems like hundreds of years have passed."

Lorraine Hill pressed his hand on the cold metal door. With the penetration of magic power, the complicated patterns on the city gate were lit up one by one, and then the door was slowly pulled up, revealing that the inside had been closed for a long time. street.

"Two years ago, the conservative faction of the forest elves sent people in here, but no one returned them, and they stopped sending people to try again." Lorraine Hill and Vimiya talked about the news she knew.

"Be careful this time." Vimiya nodded. Today she was wearing a blue and black dress, and her legs were all wrapped in black silk, making it easy to move. Her blue hair was coiled behind her head. , covered with a layer of pearl gauze, with only two strands falling from the ear side, which contrasted with the white collarbone.

After the two stepped into Titania, an extremely cold breath hit their faces. There seemed to be extremely cold water mist in the air. If ordinary people inhaled it, even their lungs would be frostbitten and freeze.

Fortunately, the two witches are related to the atmosphere and water, and the weak swirling airflow surrounds them to filter the too humid air.

The street was empty and cold, with no pedestrians, no sound, not even ants. The bustling main road in the past was extremely empty, forming a huge gap with the scenery in memory.

The two walked on the street and looked around, and then went into the houses and mansions on the side to check, and saw a different scene.

Residents of the city still maintained their original daily movements, but their entire bodies had been turned into ice sculptures, motionless.

As if overnight, the extremely low temperature swept across the entire city, turning this huge city of more than 2 million people into a dead silence.

After leaving the mansion, Lorraine Hill and Vimiya simply flew up at low altitude, inspected the surrounding situation, and found more ice sculptures. Some of them were city residents who had no time to escape, and some were from the battlefield that day. Soldiers, still maintain the state of fighting the enemy.

There is no doubt that their lives are frozen at this moment, falling into a state of immortality. If these ice sculptures are melted rashly, they will flow into the sewer like snow and disappear without a trace.

The Witch of Eternal Frozen Green, Korros, is really an appropriate title.

Frozen green is a special evergreen plant, which symbolizes the magic power of life in the folklore of the empire. The source of the story is the ageless girl who walked on the snow thousands of years ago. It is said that she accompanied the animals in the forest , is a fairy or **** walking in the world, who will give blessings to people walking in the snowy night.

If you are lucky enough to meet this girl in the forest, you only need to ask her piously, and she will give you the frozen green branches that bring blessings, and then the people who get the frozen green branches will weave the frozen green branches when they return home. Form a circle and hang on the door for blessings.

This kind of behavior gradually spread, and later merged with other customs, and finally gradually formed the winter festival celebration in a broad sense. The annual winter festival party of Emenas also came from this.

Compared with other witches who brought disasters, this frozen green witch is undoubtedly kind and friendly in the legend, and because of this, in the spread of the story, the title of witch was gradually removed and changed to the frozen green girl in the snow .

Recalling the legend about Corros in their minds, Lorraine Hill and Vemia approached the center of Titania step by step, which is where the Rose Palace is located.

The place where the emperors and royal families lived in the past is undoubtedly located in the center of the city layout. There are several layers of palaces and city walls inside and outside, and it is gorgeous and deep.

central square.

Thousands of ice sculptures of guards and knights still stand here. They are neatly lined up, burly, and well-trained. It can be seen that even when Titania is about to fall, there are still a group of loyal guards Defend this place.

Even after several turmoil and changes, the green royal family still has a very high reputation in the empire, and countless families follow and depend on it. This kind of consensus has not been destroyed after the fall of Titania, so even the Grand Duke of Griffin, Had to support the two empresses first, and slowly replace the royal family's status in a curved manner.

Walking past the tall ice sculptures, Lorraine Hill and Vimiya seemed to be walking through the forest made of ice, and then entered the deep palace filled with rime.

Compared with the outside world, these extremely cold ice fog greatly hindered the girl's perception, making it impossible for Lorraine Hill to see through the situation inside the Rose Palace at a glance.

The ground under their feet was covered with hoarfrost, and the two of them made a slight sound when they stepped on it, and then left faint footprints.

The further inside, the heavier the cold air. Even Lorraine Hill had to open a larger spherical air shield to isolate the eternally frozen rime.

Passing through the throne room for discussion, and crossing the emperor's residence and garden, the two walked in step by step until they stopped in front of a high tower.

There was a slight weeping sound from the ice fog ahead. It seemed to be the sound of tears falling to the ground, and then formed into ice beads rolling down. It was very clear in the silent environment.

Vimiya held Lorraine Hill's nervous hand, and the two walked in together.

The thick fog was broken layer by layer, and the scenery in front of him was gradually revealed.

A maid with silver-purple hair was kneeling on the ground, and on her lap lay a teenager who had fallen asleep.

Slender fingers stretched out from the cuffs, slowly stroking that cold cheek, tears like beans, slowly slid and fell, and fell on the stone floor beside him.

Behind the maid, there is a half-melted ice sculpture, with one hand leaning forward, as if trying to grab something, but most of the upper body has melted, and the face is already unknown, but judging from the dress, it should be the front This is the same maid outfit.

Standing in front of the silver-purple-haired maid, the two stopped. Although they had never seen it before, they already understood that this was the immortal witch, Keruosi.

The slight sobbing continued, and Korros knelt on the ground without looking up.

Looking at the sad scene in front of him, Lorraine Hill sighed slightly, then took a few steps forward, and slowly squatted down.

"Perhaps he can still be saved, because you gave him part of the power."

The reason why the new emperor Elio was able to kill the regent Edron in the battle that day was because of this almost immortality.

"It's useless. I can't give him the world he wants. He must hate me because I lied to him."

Keruosi raised her head, the petite witch who used to be extremely willful now had tears on her face, she was extremely weak.

"I can't actually save Anna, I can't save the empire, and I can't even save him, but I really like this child and want to present him with a beautiful world and watch him become a mature and powerful king step by step."

"However, Korros failed, and Elio was angry with me. He hated me, hated me, and refused to wake up." The witch who was hit wiped her tears and said sad words.

Is that so? From the sporadic words of Korros, Lorraine Hill guessed the story between the young emperor and the witch.

Although Elio was the emperor of the empire, Lorraine Hill didn't hate or dislike him, on the contrary, he liked him a little bit.

When the southern border was undecided, it was the will of the new emperor to quickly stabilize the southern border and return it to the leadership of the Dryas tree organization. This greatly reduced conflicts and left precious time for the subsequent development of the southern border.

Unlike previous imperial emperors, Elio was born as a commoner emperor. His early experience of extreme poverty made him deeply sympathize with the lower classes of the empire. Improve the condition of the ground floor.

It's a pity that fate doesn't favor the emperor, or in other words, the complicated form in the empire doesn't allow such easy changes.

It's not that there are no smart people in the empire who saw the changes in Clancia and the southern border, but even if they saw them, they could only barely imitate them and could not change them completely, because the aristocratic system was the foundation and skeleton of the empire, and changing meant suicide.

People can't get away from the ground under their feet and stand in the air, and the same is true inside the empire.

The northern border was affected, the southern border was independent, the eastern border was unaffected, the western border rebelled, and the imperial family gradually fell in this all-out conflict.

If Elio wasn't the emperor of the empire, he might be able to jump out of this vicious circle and cycle, but if he wasn't the emperor, he wouldn't have come to Titania, and maybe he would have spent the ordinary life in a small town or city. Difficult life.

Softly comforting the frozen witch, Lorraine touched the boy's forehead with his fingers to sense his situation.

Just like what Korros said, his soul did not disperse, but turned into mist, kept rolling, and refused to gather again. It seemed that only in this way could he avoid the cruel and desperate world.

After a while, Lorraine Hill slowly opened his eyes and looked at the still sleeping boy.

After meditating for a while, Lorraine Hill stretched out his hand again, and a bunch of purple lotus flowers emerged in his hand. This is the lotus flower of nightmares he got from Tehua.

For the still unconscious boy, she did not choose the lotus flower representing the dream, but gave the lotus flower representing the nightmare.

For those who are in a desperate situation, giving illusory beauty and hope can sometimes be a kind of harm instead. The more beautiful, the more distant, the more untouchable, the more sad.

So, just go through the pain, the real pain, the brutal reality.

This will indeed make it more uncomfortable, but once you have experienced a more dangerous environment and world, you will gradually find that what you have experienced in the past is far from the saddest time, and compared to the eternally dark world, Such a cruel reality is actually somewhat real possibility.

The lotus flower of the nightmare turned into shimmering particles, merged into the tumbling mist, soaked it, and then it surged more intensely, as if it was struggling and crying, weeping and weeping.

Looking at this scene, Lorraine Hill lightly raised his palm, soaked in gentle and clear magic power, clarifying his body and mind and consciousness.

The mist was still rolling, and the struggle and crying were still going on, but there was a little more roar and unwillingness in it.

Gradually, the mist began to shrink and condense. Although the degree of churning has not weakened, it seems to be much more condensed than before.

Slowly, the mist shrinks and condenses in the churning, and finally converges abruptly, forming a hazy human shape again.

Seeing this scene, Keruosi opened her mouth in a daze, then wept with joy and hugged the young man.

"Elio, you're awake, woo woo, Korros is wrong, please forgive me, I can be your maid for the rest of my life."

The young man slowly opened his eyes in Keruosi's arms, looking at the gray sky above his head, his eyes were quiet, his lips moved slightly, but he didn't speak after all.

After a long time, he slowly stood up from Keruosi's arms, looked at the silver-purple witch who shed tears for him, shook his head slightly, and stroked the tears on the girl's cheeks.

"Okay, don't cry, Koros."

"If you cry any more, you will be like a cat. A maid like you is not qualified, far inferior to Sister Anna."

"Well, don't cry." Korros obediently wiped away her tears with the back of her hand, and then stood beside him.

Afterwards, Elio turned around and looked at the two girls.

"Hi, I'm Elio, who are you two?"

"I'm Lorraine Hill, and this is Vimiya." The girl introduced herself.

"So it's the witch of the stars and miracles, no wonder." His voice was full of emotion.

"I'm making you laugh, I'm such an ugly person." He turned his eyes and looked at the surroundings and the sky. Although he still didn't know what happened after he jumped off the tower, it was definitely not a good thing.

"Is the empire still there?" Finally he asked hesitantly.

"It is still there, but it is ruled by two empresses, the former Princess Evelyn and Princess Tesslin."

"Those two aunts...they must be more suitable than me." Elio felt relieved.

"However, the empire has also entered the countdown to destruction, and the two empresses are nothing more than puppets in the hands of the great nobles."

"Really, it's still the same..." he repeated.

"What about you, Your Highness Lorraine Hill, I have heard about your deeds a long time ago, are you ready to overthrow the entire empire?"

"Yes, in fact, this time is also for this purpose." Lorraine Hill replied.

"It's time to end. Time keeps moving forward. No matter how much you like and remember someone, you can only put them in the cupboard behind you and watch them from a distance."

"It was my obsession that bothered Korros. In order to make me feel at ease, she 'resurrected' Sister Anna. At that time, I marveled at the magic of the witch and felt a strong confidence."

"Maybe I can bring some change to this country."

"However, I woke up from the dream very quickly. The reform of the previous generation of Amanke brothers was actually the most ideal result under the original structure, but I thought more, and the result broke the balance, and the conflict could not be suppressed. Eat what you want."

"Sister 'Anna' is just a puppet made by Koros. Although Koros disguised it very well, I finally discovered it."

"Actually, the real Sister Anna is not so good. She will occasionally be silly and sad, sometimes she is not feeling well, and when she is upset, she doesn't even want to talk to me, and she will teach me loudly, asking me to learn a skill some type of."

"But the 'Anna' sister made by Kross is too perfect, and finally made me realize the illusion in it, so sad that it is even more sad to be together."

After saying this, he tried to walk out of the courtyard again, wanting to see the city.

Knowing Elio's thoughts, Korross helped him up, and then lifted him up to the sky, and the scene of the whole city was also reflected in his eyes.

"Is this all made by Kross?" He asked the silver-purple haired maid beside him.

"...Yes, yes." Uneasy and hesitant, the maid answered in a low voice.

"Can it be lifted, let everyone return to their original state."

"it should be OK."

"Let's begin then."

"Yes, my master." The witch closed her eyes and muttered softly, the ancient and empty ballad echoed in this dead city.

Slowly the rime dissipated, the gray color of the sky dissipated, the brilliant and bright sunlight gradually shone into the city, and the still figures on the street gradually recovered their colors.

Finally, there was a slight commotion in the city, which spread quickly.

"Where is this, where?"

"what happens."

"What a strange feeling."

People were talking to each other, and the soldiers who had fought before looked at each other in astonishment, checking the surroundings.

"Sure enough, she is a miraculous witch. Lorraine can always do things we can't imagine."

In the tall clock tower, two witches looked at the scene in the city. One was wearing a pink and white dress, and the other was like a delicate doll, sitting on a high chair.

"The flower in her hand must have been given by Tehua. Even I have never seen it before, so I can only guess based on my vague perception." Si Ye looked at the distant figures.

"It seems so. When I snatched Kitty back, I saw similar flowers, but it didn't seem to have such a function at that time." Chrissy recalled the past.

"It's probably the result of Lorraine helping Tehua to cultivate~www.readwn.com~ You know, she is very good at this. At that time, the extraordinary fruit of the Tixilan Mountains surprised many people."

"Yes, I didn't expect this junior to grow up in the blink of an eye."

"Now that they have solved Titania's seal, our whereabouts should have been exposed." Chris looked at the petite witch beside her.

"Get ready to fight, Si Ye."

After speaking, a silver mirror suddenly appeared in the air, and then it was torn apart, revealing the cat-eared figure behind the broken silver mirror.

The usually beautiful blue pupils turned into wandering red lights, accompanied by the rapid afterimage, the slender fingers were like sharp claws, tore the silver mirror to pieces, and went straight to the two people in the clock tower.
