Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1193 The Problem of Women’s Mirror Self
The River of Eternal Darkness!

Angel had long heard that the underground area of ​​Trier not only had the remnants of the power of the "City of Disaster" that produced the special mirror world and those special mirror people, but was also contaminated by other source substances such as the "Wilderness of Knowledge" and the "River of Eternal Darkness". However, she was still a little surprised to hear the exact news from an angel who had experienced the War of the Four Emperors.

"You know what that name means, right?"

She asked back cautiously.

Christine nodded, her expression changed, and she said as if she was missing someone:
"Father said that this is the most fundamental power of each path. He called it 'source essence'. It is sealed somewhere, but some of its power has been leaked and can be used.

"He and his mother have been planning something and want to use these powers, but I don't know what it is. Even his angel kings, Amon, Abraham, and Antigonus, were not allowed to participate in this matter in the later period."

Antigonus said that Tudor sometimes does things that are inconvenient for others to know. At first I thought it was a tryst with Chike, but now it seems that he is doing this "big thing"... No, maybe it's both... Angel recalled and asked:

"Did they succeed?"

Judging from the situation in Trier in the Fourth Age, Tudor attracted at least two or three different kinds of source power, but eventually fell here. It is difficult to say whether he succeeded or failed.

"It was partially successful, which allowed them to gain some powers different from their own paths, and also caused some changes in the 'Mirror World'." Christmena sighed, "My mother's method of killing me and cutting my soul to prevent me from resurrecting came from this. The Mirror World has become more real since then, and can allow people other than those of the Witch Path to have special mirror people appear, and even show their powers."

Cutting souls... Yes, the Witch Path itself does not have the ability to transform a person into a kind or corrupt soul. Even if the Hunter Path is added... Angel was stunned and immediately thought of a similar situation he had seen in another place.

In the dream of the God War Ruins, certain mirrors can differentiate people into good and evil selves. Angel thought that was the change of the "person in the mirror", but it was not only her, the witch, but also the "Faceless Man" Klein, a saint of the Aurora Society, and the "Black Knight" Leo Master who saw the opposite of themselves. According to Bernadette, these personalities may even invade the real world and replace the other self.

Compared to the man in the mirror, this seems to be closer to the ability of the "audience" high-sequence virtual personality. And the part of differentiation into depravity and evil is related to the "Hanged Man" path... Could it be that Tudor and Chick have mastered a certain degree of "Chaos Sea" power?
On the other hand, why is there a special "Mirror Man" power that can split me in the God War Ruins? That was the place where the ancient sun god and the "Redemption Rose" fought, and it did not include the original witch, not to mention that there was no original witch at that time...

Angel felt her head was a little hot, her mind was running at full speed, but she couldn't get an answer that convinced her. She saw that the edge of the black-haired witch in front of her was getting more and more blurred, and it seemed that she couldn't last long. She could only temporarily put these questions in her heart and asked the most important question:
"Is the 'Great Terror' in the mirror world related to this attempt?"

If Tudor and Chick really intend to utilize the power of multiple source essence leaks, rather than just the "City of Disaster" that symbolizes their own path, then it can indeed be called "Great Terror". After all, even true gods are afraid of source essence contamination, especially those source essences that do not belong to their own path.

As she expected, Christine nodded slightly and replied:

"Although my father and mother did not reveal more information, I guess it should be related... After the special mirror world was established with the help of the Angel King of the Abraham family, they went in and out of it more and more frequently, and with it came changes in the way they acted and their personalities. My father had almost exhausted all other paths and characteristics before being promoted to the 'Red Priest' and no longer acted crazy, but after prohibiting other Angel Kings from entering the mirror world, He became the same as before, and even killed an angel from the Jacob family with his own hands because of a trivial matter...

"And the mother also began to call herself the true successor of the original creator, the first person born in chaos, and she called herself the 'original witch' more often than the 'chaos witch' she used before.

"It was at that time that the prohibition on female family members from advancing to the higher sequences of the witch path began. Later, it even developed into hunting down all female witches, whether they were within the family or in the wild."

Angel nodded. The last piece of the puzzle about the development of the "Witch Sect" in the Fourth Epoch was completed in her mind, giving her a sense of satisfaction.

"But what exactly is that 'Great Terror'? And why is it related to the advancement of female witches?"

she asked next.

Christine smiled bitterly, sighed again, and replied:
“It was only when I was killed by my mother that I learned about the existence of such a thing inside the mirror world. But He was guarding against me. Even though He separated my soul, sealed my characteristics, and destroyed my body, He was still worried that I would leak out after knowing all this.

"But in the past thousand years, I have been able to piece together some of the truth from scattered divinations, contacts with catacomb explorers, and the promotion of certain witches controlled by the Church of the Eternal Sun."

Are there any Beyonders with the "Witch" path under the Eternal Blazing Sun Church? They should shoot first and ask questions later for this kind of path that leans towards evil and has a secret sect... Angel felt a little confused.

Christine continued:
"The truth is, there may be another 'Chaos Witch' deep in the mirror world."

This answer made Angel frown, a little disappointed. "I know, that is your mother Chick's 'Mirror Man'. He hates his own body and secretly controls some members of the Witch Cult. He also has a statue that is the same as Chick, but in black appearance."

Could this "Black Chick" be the so-called Great Terror? He couldn't even defeat the Original Witch and had to rely on external help.

"No, you don't understand." Christmena shook her head and said, "I have witnessed many witches' promotion here. Most of them are male witches, but there are also some who escaped the pursuit of witch sects and hoped to use the seal of the catacombs to isolate their mothers from prying eyes."

“This is the right approach. The seal from the power of the Eternal Sun and the God of Craftsmen can effectively block the mother’s perception, but they don’t know that the real danger comes from the mirror world, that special mirror world deep underground in Trier.

"Whenever a witch is promoted and the person in her mirror changes, a huge shadow will appear at the edge of the mirror world, peeking at the promoted person in the mirror from another unstoppable angle... Most of the time it will only stay for a short time, but whenever a female witch is promoted, it will stay for a long time, as if it is reluctant to leave."

At this point, the red color of anger and pain appeared on Christine's face again, but this time there was also a hint of fear.

"It's spying on the mirror figures of female witches, and wants to replace them!"

His voice became sharper and sharper, like a roar, and his black hair grew thicker and turned into poisonous snakes. The temperature around him suddenly dropped and frost condensed.

"You are not allowed to promote the 'Immortal Witch'!"

"You are not allowed to promote the 'Immortal Witch'!"

Crisemena wandered around the stone chamber with words of intense hatred and fear.

His figure, which had become sad and beautiful because of this, also faded and disappeared, leaving only the frost mist condensed by the low temperature, like a remnant soul that was unwilling to leave.

Angel did not move, but stood there, allowing the frost to erode him, with Christine's words before she left echoing in his mind.

Not allowed to be promoted to the Immortal Witch? But I am already the "Disaster" Witch, and He knows this, so why is He still yelling at me?
Angel was confused and a little aggrieved. The sad and charming figure of the witch angel just now still left a ripple in her heart, making her unwilling to disobey the other party's warning.

This is charm... She reacted, her mind became clear again, and she began to think about the details of the previous conversation.

Assuming that what Chick's daughter said is true, the so-called "great terror" should not be as simple as the man in the mirror of the original witch. According to Angel's guess, it at least includes the power of the source material of the "Chaos Sea". In addition, the "Spring of the Woman of Samaria" deep underground also involves the River of Everlasting Darkness, plus the "City of Disaster" that Tudor and Chick came into contact with together, there are three sources.

This made Angel subconsciously come to a conclusion:
Chike was invited to watch the second "blasphemous slate" at the turn of the third and fourth eras, and came into contact with the power of the "Chaos Sea" according to the apotheosis ritual recorded on it. Although he maintained his self at the time and did not fall or alienate, he later encountered similar problems as the "Ancient Sun God". In order to prevent himself from being replaced by the original will contained in the Beyonder characteristics, he separated a part of himself and became the "Chaos Witch" represented by the Black Statue, which is now opposed to him. His own strength and personality have also changed to a certain extent.

Tudor tried to control the power of the "Chaos Sea" and use this source essence, the only one that was not sealed except the "Source Castle", to weaken the seal of the western continent and attract the power of the "City of Disaster" that he needed most, but failed for some reason.

But there is a problem. Why does Chick worry about the influence of female witches on his corrupt side? Angel is puzzled.

"If Chick separated his alienated and corrupted self and used his 'Mirror Man' to contain it, then according to the mirror self that appeared when the witch was promoted to Sequence 7, it should be a male, representing Chick's past. However, the 'Chaos Witch' who possesses the Black Idol is obviously a female... The mirror man possessed by a female witch will attract the attention of the 'Chaos Witch'. Although I was promoted to a witch with a male body, the mirror man is also a female, but I have not been spied on... Is it because she has been hiding in the City of Disaster?"

Angel's thoughts were in a mess, and suddenly he realized something.

She understood why, even though she had been promoted to a "disaster" and had passed the "immortal" stage that Christine had warned her about, the other party would still roar at her as if issuing the most severe warning.

Elaine, she jumped from the female "Reaper" path and was promoted to the Sequence 4 "Despair" witch.

She also has her female mirror self!
