Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1166 You Shouldn't Have Come

Seal him?
No... Bernadette immediately shook her head and looked at Anne and Angel for help. Seeing that they both had gloomy faces and didn't speak, she asked carefully:
"Can you keep it like this?"

Although she was not yet an angel, she still held the "Pale Death" and could sense through its status that a certain contamination in her father's body had temporarily reached a balance with His power. If this state could continue, perhaps...

"No, the 'New Life' will appear again soon. Since you came to this island, you must have witnessed what happened outside. It is not something you or Annie can resist." Roselle said seriously, "Don't you always say 'Do whatever you want, but don't hurt'? If you leave me alone, the whole world will be threatened."

It turns out that he has not changed at all. The reason why he has not been resurrected for so many years is because he cannot control the pollution in his body... Bernadette's pupils dilated slightly and she understood a lot.

She no longer hesitated, picked up the mask in her hand, and pressed it against her face, softening the hard metal surface to reveal the face of the southern continent, making Bernadette's sad blue eyes become as black as ink.

In those eyes, a very complex three-dimensional symbol appeared, like a coiled feathered serpent. It quickly shed its mask and appeared in the air, spreading its wings like a real feathered serpent, just like the mythical creature Angel had seen in the mausoleum of Salinger in the depths of the Raging Sea.

The dark stone walls that were destroyed by her and then restored in "rebirth" began to weather at such a fast speed that it seemed as if a thousand years had passed in just a few seconds. The surface became mottled and decayed, and dust fell down. Feathers with a pale yellow color grew in the cracks.

Roselle's shadow flashed directly back to the throne on the high platform, and sat quietly on it. His slit-like eyes quietly watched Bernadette's actions, and looked at Anne who pursed her lips and remained silent beside him, quietly waiting for the feathered serpent that brought death and eternal sleep to fly towards him.

Suddenly, the narrow cracks below His eyes opened and He said:
"Don't worry, I will come back and enjoy this world for a while."

A tear slowly flowed out from the only two holes on "Pale Death" and quickly weathered and disappeared on the surface of the metal mask.

Silently, the feathered serpent symbol came to Roselle's shadow with floating dust, surrounding and wrapping it layer by layer. The outline of the shadow suddenly became illusory, as if entering another world.

The blood-red light that was originally obscured was first destroyed by Angel's power of disaster, and now it was suppressed by the power of death, becoming extremely dim, making Angel almost think that it would disappear and no longer entangle Roselle.

But in the next second, several new blood-red cracks appeared on the black shadow's body. When the light inside had decayed to the extreme and was almost entering death and eternal sleep, it regained vitality, full of strength as if reborn, and began to fight against the "pale death".

Seeing this, Angel's eyes flashed, and he found a "weak spot" in the ever-expanding gap, driving the power of the "City of Disaster" that had not yet completely dissolved in Roselle's body, cutting off the breath of the "Fallen Mother Goddess" who had just regained her life, and letting the connected blood-red light scatter and be completely covered by the feathered serpent symbol.

Klein, who had been observing the situation above the gray fog, also used the power of "Source Castle" and the characteristics of the two "Mysterious Servant" in his hands to integrate a symbol belonging to the Fool into the black shadow, cleverly grafting the power of "rebirth", "death" and "chaos" together, allowing the three to both merge and confront each other.

As long as the Pale Death still exists, it can continue to respond to the prayers of the Feathered Serpent symbol and send down its power. The same is true for Angel's drop of blood and Klein's "Fool" mark. The three forces are balanced here, and they can suppress each other to the greatest extent without Roselle's additional control.

During this period, Russell tried to stand up from his chair several times as if he wanted to escape, but sat back down again without resisting the various external forces.

“Him,” no, his shadowy facial features gradually began to show real facial features, replacing the three slits that no longer emitted red light.

It seems that the disaster predicted will not happen for the time being... Wait, is this a disguised way to complete Bernadette's promotion to "Sage"? After stopping George III from becoming a god last time, she said that she did not meet the requirements of the ritual because no matter whether George III succeeded or not, the world war would break out under Adam's manipulation and the acquiescence of the gods. This time, she really sealed the "Black Emperor" polluted by the Outer Gods... Angel's mind was constantly bursting with thoughts, and suddenly she felt that her drop of blood carrying the breath of "City of Disaster" had a connection with another power in Roselle's body, and an illusory picture appeared in front of her eyes.

It was a dark river shrouded in gray mist, with countless swollen bodies like water ghosts wandering around.

Is this... the source substance "River of Eternal Darkness"? Because the power of Sefirah Castle is also mixed in, I can see the situation of the sealed Western Continent?

Angel, who already knew the corresponding source of each path, was thinking quickly and had a guess, but the illusory picture quickly disappeared, and the entire mausoleum returned to silence. The forces of death, eternal sleep, and disaster entangled with each other, and the momentum of the Black Emperor once again filled the space.

Bernadette quickly took off the metal mask, revealing the traces of tears on her delicate face. She looked at Roselle, whose arms were resting on the armrests of the chair, with the familiar outline of his face vaguely visible. She was about to say something when the latter nodded to Anne.

Anne took a deep look at the familiar silhouette, then reached out and grabbed Bernadette, who was still somewhat resistant. The two of them went directly into the spirit world and left the closed mausoleum along the "door" that Klein had just opened.

They passed through the corpses of various extraordinary creatures that had lost their "rebirth" power and were scattered all over the ground, and passed through Edwards, the ancestor of Edwina, the "Iceberg Vice Admiral", who still had a trace of consciousness and was just talking to the two of them, and quickly returned to the deck of the "Dawn". Because a large number of trees were destroyed, the mausoleum embedded in the mountains could be seen here. As soon as she left the spirit world, Bernadette looked in that direction with tears in her eyes, and squeezed out a suppressed voice from her mouth:

"dad……"

She knew that there was a great danger in the mausoleum, most likely from the Starry Sky, and that her father might have a conversation with Angel and Mr. Fool, but deep down she still felt a little resentful towards Anne for pulling her away.

But when she secretly glanced at the black-haired, golden-eyed angel beside her, she found that there were also crystal tears flashing in the corners of the other's eyes.

----

Inside the mausoleum.

After watching Bernadette and Anne leave, Roselle glanced at Angel as if he had just remembered that there was someone here, then raised his head and looked toward the top of the mausoleum, his sight passing through the stone walls and mountains to infinity.

After a moment, he lowered his head and chuckled softly. His calm eyes locked onto Angel again, and he sighed and said:

"You came."

He spoke the Intis language.

I thought Roselle would speak Chinese. He might not have confirmed my identity yet... Angel muttered, and replied in Intis:
"I am coming."

"You shouldn't have come." Russell shook his head and sighed again.

"why?"

Angel asked curiously.

"Ok?"

Russell made a short sound in his throat, and his expression showed an inappropriate doubt, which soon turned into loss.

Far above the gray fog, Klein also covered his face—he hadn't had time to teach Angel these "stalks" in the Chinese context, and there was no way he could match the secret codes with Roselle.

It would be a bit too much to tell her how to answer at this point... He also sighed, took a paper man from the side, shook it into a paper angel, and let it fly into the crimson stars representing Angel.

Inside the mausoleum, the paper man slowly floated down from the sky, and before it hit the ground, it transformed into a human form through the faceless man's ability.

The man had black hair and brown eyes, and was somewhat similar to Gehrman Sparrow, but his facial features were softer and his body was wider. Rather than an adventurer on the five seas, he looked more like a clerical worker who sat in an office for a long time and lacked exercise.

"I'm already here."

Klein, who appeared in the image of "Zhou Mingrui" before the time travel, nodded slightly and accepted the signal from Emperor Roselle, or Huang Tao, who was also a "time traveler."
