“Isa, if you have something to say, just say it. Do you still need to be secretive with me?”
Turning her head and seeing Isa’s hesitant expression, Su Ran asked gently.
Isa’s question was clearly related to herself.
Otherwise, with her personality, she wouldn’t show such a conflicted expression.
“Your Highness, can I go out of the city? The area around Tukulu is all mountains. I want to take the opportunity to hunt some magical beasts and accumulate practical combat experience.”
Hearing this, Su Ran didn’t expect Isa to make such a request.
If Isa were to leave the Witch’s Society, her login point would change.
In that case, she wouldn’t be able to protect this place.
But Isa’s request was also reasonable.
If one didn’t have practical combat experience, and only increased the magic essence in their body, their Sequence would be merely for show.
“Come on, give me a solution. Don’t sleep!”
Faced with these two difficult situations, Su Ran softly knocked to wake up a certain sleeping system.
[Current Mission Progress: Pious Believer 1/1, Casual Believer 35/50]
[Conditions met. Unlocking temporary anchor point.]
[Based on having more than twenty casual believers, recharge 30,000 to activate the seven-day temporary anchor point service. During the anchor’s duration, the user can appear at the anchor’s location at any time. The anchor has a built-in cooldown.]
Su Ran looked at the mission progress, which had been increasing for the past few days.
So far, there were already thirty-five casual believers in the Witch’s Society.
She herself was curious about how Isa was teaching.
The function the system had now unlocked could meet Su Ran’s requirements.
This temporary anchor point could perfectly solve Su Ran’s inability to be in two places at once, allowing her to appear in the Witch’s Society at any time to prevent possible sneak attacks.
“Your Highness, never mind. I’ll stay here.”
Not receiving a reply from Su Ran, Isa’s voice lowered, her lips tightly pursed.
‘To say what’s in my heart… rather than being rejected by Her Highness Su Ran, it’s better to take back my words while she’s silent.’
These past few days, besides concocting healing potions, she had also been using her spare time to concoct some potions suitable for combat.
She was not a witch who had no combat ability besides concocting potions.
Originally, Isa had wanted to go with Philly and Maimai to meet the Church’s army, but Lecy had found her in private, hoping that she could stay in the safe Witch’s Society.
Now, she had gathered the courage to hope that Her Highness Su Ran would agree to let her go out of the city to train, but was only met with silence.
‘Only by actively taking back my words can I maintain a bit of dignity in front of Her Highness.’
“If you want to go, then go with confidence.”
Just as Isa was about to speak, Su Ran spoke first.
“Eh? Is that really okay?”
Su Ran’s response after her silence made Isa’s moist eyes widen.
She pointed a jade-like finger at her own lips, a look of complete surprise on her face.
“Of course. As long as it’s something Isa wants to do, then go and do it with confidence.”
Seeing Isa’s round eyes widen, Su Ran realized that Isa had been concocting potions here for too long.
She also had combat ability; she wasn’t just someone who could only hide here and make potions.
This time, Isa’s initiative in proposing to go out of the city should also be for the purpose of training her combat ability.
Su Ran had no reason to disagree with Isa’s idea of going outside the city to find magical beasts for training.
Looking at Su Ran’s stunningly beautiful face, Isa’s eyes flowed with emotion.
At this critical juncture, Her Highness Su Ran was still firmly supporting her.
Her heart was full of emotion.
“You can go out for training, but you must not be careless. Accidents can be seen everywhere, and things can go wrong in the simplest of situations every day.”
After agreeing to let Isa go for training, Su Ran didn’t rush to let her go back and prepare, but instead chattered on, telling her about the things she needed to pay attention to.
Previously in Noda Forest, she had the protection of the cabin in the woods, and when she was a Sequence Two killing magical beasts, she had Philly by her side.
Now that she had entered Sequence Three, Isa needed a real trial.
By the end of the reminders, Isa was like someone dodging a magic spell, avoiding Su Ran’s nagging.
She knew that Her Highness Su Ran meant well, but her desire to break everything down and feed it to her made Isa not know whether to laugh or cry.
Returning to her room, whether it was clothes or scrolls, Isa packed everything into her ring.
After putting on a cloak over her witch set, Isa found Su Ran and told her that she was about to go out.
What needed to be reminded, Su Ran had already reminded.
So this time, Su Ran didn’t hold Isa back for a long speech.
Instead, she came to the entrance of the Witch’s Society and watched Isa’s back as she left through the main gate.
Outside the gate of the Witch’s Society, many subordinates of the four major mercenary groups were lying in wait.
Ever since their men, Big Beard and the others, were dealt with last time, this matter had been like a thorn in their hearts.
After all, the reason was something they had come up with themselves.
Even if they suffered a loss, they could only grit their teeth and swallow it.
However, swallowing their teeth didn’t mean that the mercenary groups wouldn’t retaliate.
Since that day, they had been squatting outside the gate of the Witch’s Society, specifically looking for lone witches.
But their idea was wishful thinking.
After Lecy had taken most of the witches away, the remaining witches in the Society had all received orders not to take a single step out.
Thus, these squatting mercenaries could find no opportunity for revenge.
Today, the opportunity they wanted had arrived.
“Stop sleeping! Get up! A witch has come out!”
As he spoke, the sleepy-eyed burly man stood up.
Seeing Isa walk out of the Witch’s Society’s gate, he immediately became alert.
“Hurry, we’ll follow behind you. This time, we must get revenge on these witches.”
The burly man spoke through gritted teeth.
Big Beard was his brother, and he had died in the hands of the witches for no clear reason.
So, he had volunteered for this revenge mission.
The four major mercenary groups had many subordinates, and it would take some time to gather them.
However, seeing that Isa was heading towards the outside of the city, the burly man was relieved.
At least he didn’t have to worry about the witch turning around and hiding back in the Witch’s Society after encountering danger, attracting the attention of the Sequence Six witch.
“There are some little tails?”
The burly man thought he was being secretive enough, but he didn’t know that his every move was being watched by Su Ran.
When Isa walked out of the gate of the Witch’s Society, red dots with malicious intent gradually gathered behind her.
Su Ran counted them.
The number was not large.
The scrolls Isa was holding were enough to deal with these people.
Moreover, the sequence level of these people was only around Sequence Three.
They were just right for Isa to use as a whetstone.
