Resettlement

Maimai, dressed in a black robe, darted through the forest.

After accepting Shadow’s suggestion, she had set out to constantly search for powerful magical beasts in Noda Forest, attempting to lure them to Laita City.

For the past few days, Maimai had been roaming through the territories of various magical beasts, but the results were still not to her satisfaction.

Relying on the speed of her witch ability, Maimai was confident she could escape from the clutches of most magical beasts.

Besides, according to Shadow’s information, the Sequence Four Earth Dragon in the forest had already been killed.

There shouldn’t be any magical beasts in the entire Noda Forest that could threaten her.

As a result, the remaining magical beasts were all eyeing the top position in the forest.

Even though Maimai constantly guided them to attack each other, they were all still in the probing stage.

Let alone engaging in a full-blown fight that would drive the other affected magical beasts out of the forest and towards Laita City.

“If only Melly were here, this would be much simpler.”

Maimai sighed.

Her witch ability was speed.

Sneaking into a magical beast’s territory was no problem for her, but to make the beasts obediently attack Laita City, Melly, who had the ability to communicate with them, was more suited for this task than she was.

What Maimai found regrettable was that Melly had not participated in this attack.

Otherwise, with Philly’s ability to control trees and Melly’s ability to communicate with magical beasts…

The combination of their two abilities would surely have been able to inflict great damage on the Church’s team.

In reality, the fact before Maimai was that Melly was not by her side and could not provide any help in saving Philly.

“Go, Maimai! You’re the only one who can save Philly!”

Thus, after cheering herself on, Maimai continued to dart through the territories of the major magical beasts in Noda Forest, attempting to continue provoking them into battle.

Not long after Maimai left, a person emerged from the shadow of a tree behind her.

If Maimai were still standing there, she would have clearly seen that this person was Shadow, the one who had advised her to guide a beast tide to attack Laita City.

Shadow stared in the direction Maimai had left and muttered to herself, “The purple witch appearing to save someone has already caused enough chaos. But now, the entire Laita City is filled with the aura of Holy Stone. My abilities can’t get into the Church at all. It seems I can only delay for a few more days and rely on the beast tide to cause another disturbance to achieve my goal.”

When she mentioned the purple witch, a hint of fear appeared on her face.

Through her contact with the purple witch, she knew that the other party was not to be trifled with.

In fact, it was the first time Shadow had seen someone capable of breaking the effect of a soul vessel.

The effect of the Lust Soul Vessel was not so much about being able to manipulate people’s hearts, but more about plunging them into a state of false perception.

Just as after Shadow had used the soul vessel on Maimai, she herself only remembered that she needed to trigger a beast tide for Philly’s sake, but she had even forgotten the specific date of Philly’s public trial.

In this way, Shadow had gained a tool in Noda Forest to help her trigger a beast tide.

As long as someone was of a lower Sequence rank than her, they shouldn’t have a chance to escape her control.

However, Shadow had personally witnessed Isa break free from the soul vessel’s control after hearing a single call from the other party.

Shadow decided that as soon as she got her hands on the soul vessel being escorted by the Church, she would leave this area immediately.

She didn’t want to encounter someone like the purple witch, who could break the control of a soul vessel, ever again.

A streak of purple light shot across the sky.

Shadow’s expression changed, and she used her ability to immediately escape into the shadows, terrified of being discovered by the purple witch passing overhead.

“Damn it, this position should still be some distance from their landing spot.”

When Shadow had given Maimai her suggestion, she had deliberately made her go around the other party’s landing spot, precisely to avoid encountering them.

But now it seemed that her suggestion was of no use.

What was meant to happen would still happen.

“Looks like I’ll have to lead her further away.”

At this thought, Shadow continued to sneak into the shade of the trees, preparing to go and find Maimai to leave together after the purple witch had flown past.

Su Ran, who was passing by, was not paying attention to the mini-map, so he didn’t notice that he had flown directly over Shadow’s head.

Right now, besides using both hands to hold Philly, Isa was clinging to his back with her arms wrapped around him.

Su Ran was carrying Isa directly on his back.

Two soft marshmallows, full of elasticity after being squeezed, sent a realistic sensation to his brain through the simulated signal.

It made Su Ran, a young boy who had almost no opportunity for physical contact with girls, blush and his heart race.

Fortunately, he was currently using the assisted mode.

At least, he didn’t have to worry about flying in the sky himself.

This was what prevented Su Ran from being distracted by Isa and falling from the sky.

Su Ran’s entire focus was on calming himself down.

He had no time to pay attention to what was appearing on the mini-map.

Soon, Su Ran landed with the two witches.

They had returned to the location of the small house again.

“When I left before, I never thought I’d be back here again after just a few days.”

Isa’s voice came from behind Su Ran.

Even though they had already landed on the ground, she seemed to have no intention of letting go and standing on the ground again, still clinging to his neck as she pleased.

At this, Su Ran could only say with a helpless expression, “Isa, we’ve already reached our destination. You can get down now.”

“Your Highness flew for too long in the sky. My legs are still a bit weak and I can’t stand steadily.”

A question mark slowly appeared above Su Ran’s head.

‘Flew for too long? Legs are weak?’

‘How come when I was carrying you in Laita City, your legs weren’t weak, but now they are?’

Of course, Su Ran did not say this out loud.

Since Isa had said so, he could only continue to carry her.

Seeing that Her Witch Highness did not refuse her, Isa buried her head in Her Witch Highness’s smooth back with a blissful expression, greedily breathing in Her Witch Highness’s fragrance.

He placed the brought-back Philly in an empty room and settled her down.

Feeling the weight on his back, Su Ran said helplessly, “Isa, aren’t you getting down yet?”

After Su Ran finished speaking, the weight on his back lightened.

Isa obediently came to his side.

Before Su Ran could speak, she had already learned to answer first, “Your Highness, I’ve rested enough. I can walk on my own now.”

Looking at the very obedient Isa, all the words Su Ran had wanted to say were swallowed back into his stomach.

A thousand words could be summarized into one sentence.

“She probably won’t wake up for a while. You’ve been busy for so long, you should get some good rest.”

After Su Ran finished speaking, the body condensed from magic essence in front of Isa gradually turned into light and disappeared before her eyes.

“You’ve worked hard!”

After hearing Su Ran’s last specially instructed sentence, Isa smiled with her eyes and nodded lightly in agreement.
