Miss Witch, it's time to clean up the entries

Chapter 60: Heading towards the Bone Forest

Catherine pushed open the door, and the young lord bathed in the morning light appeared in her sight.

He has blond hair and blue eyes, deep features, the same dark circles as Father Seamus, and a faint smile on his face.

"Good morning, Katherine."

"Good morning, Lord Li En, did you not get enough rest last night?"

Catherine asked gently, the sunlight caressing her long, shiny black hair and shining on her delicate and fair face, making her look as if she were covered with a filter, as beautiful as an elf walking out of a painting.

Especially those misty eyes, which made people want to protect her.

Li En nodded slightly. "Yes, it's really hard to get a good rest. I'm going to leave for the Bone Forest today, and I'm not sure when I can come back, so I want to help you clear the last red entry first."

"Forest of Bones?"

Catherine was slightly stunned. In her memory, the forest was very dangerous and was inhabited by terrible monsters.

Without the protection of Knight Kag Mori, neither she nor Mina would have been able to cross the forest and reach Greenshade Territory.

"Why go to such a dangerous place?"

"In order to send you safely back to Blue Moon Territory, I must go to the Bone Forest."

Li En said with a smile.

Catherine was suddenly moved, and she blamed herself for her worry and jealousy last night.

"Master Li En, you don't have to be so nice to me."

"This is part of our deal and it's my responsibility to fulfill."

Li En took his fiancée's delicate little hand. After this period of rest, Catherine had gained weight and her hands were more fleshy.

Catherine stood on tiptoe and restrainedly kissed Li En on the cheek, "Thank you for everything you have done for me."

Li En responded with a kiss on her forehead, "Let's go, let's make this a quick fight."

Catherine knew that Li En was talking about the entry "Terminally Ill Girl", but Catherine hesitated.

"Master Li En, this entry does not need to be cleared for the time being."

Katherine said.

"why?"

Li En asked in confusion.

Catherine explained, "It helps me have a memory that's stronger than anyone else's. I can remember everything that's ever happened. It's like there's a memory palace in my mind. No matter when it happened, I can access it anytime I want. I need it for my revenge."

"Even though it could kill you at any moment?"

"Yes, Lord Li En, don't worry. I won't die easily. At least I can live for at least three years before I complete my revenge."

Catherine said seriously.

Li En sighed and decided to respect Catherine's decision for the time being. "Well, in that case, let's say a simple farewell. I will end the battle in the Bone Forest as soon as possible."

"Ah."

Catherine nodded, took off the pendant she was wearing from her neck, and put it on Li En's neck.

"This is the amulet my mother gave me. It has protected me for sixteen years. I hope it can protect you too and bring you back to me safely."

Catherine's eyes were slightly moist. Because of today's farewell, she forgave Li En for his neglect during this period, and her heart was burning again.

She knew that the man in front of her was fulfilling his promise step by step, even though there were many crises ahead.

"I will bring it back safely."

Li En held the blue pendant, which was a blue crystal amulet with a faint power of faith.

The two of them said goodbye formally. After watching Li En leave, Catherine quietly retreated to the bedroom.

Li En put on his armor and, surrounded by a group of people, got into a carriage heading out of the city.

The three ministers, Anna, Anne, and Sophie were all beside Li En. In order to prevent the enthusiastic people from slowing down his departure from the city, Li En chose to set off in the early morning.

Most people in Green Shade Territory were still asleep, and the streets were extremely empty.

The carriage and the guards had a smooth journey.

The Southern Army has completed its assembly under the command of Captain Cobb and is now gathered within the high walls, ready to go.

Li En got out of the carriage and rode on the tall warhorse that Cobb had brought over.

Li En, riding on horseback, raised his sword and said to all the guards going out to the battle,
"For many years, the Bone Forest has been the biggest obstacle hindering the expansion of our Green Shade Territory, and it has also become a nightmare for caravans and adventurers. We can only hide and thrive within the high walls. Facing those supernatural monsters, we seem so weak. The Bone Forest, the Wasteland, and the Forbidden Sea have strictly restricted our living space, making us like captive livestock, unable to soar high.

"Today, I, Li En Moriah, will lead you to attack the Bone Forest! Kill those man-eating tree monsters and corpse monsters, so that our people can leave the high walls, breathe the vast air outside, and expand our living space! We want freedom, we want land, we want safety!"

"Attack the Bone Forest!"

"We want freedom, we want land, we want security!!!"

The guards followed Li En in shouting deafening cheers, and the sound spread throughout the Green Shade Territory in waves.

Those who were still asleep opened their eyes and opened the windows.

Looking at the armored warriors going off to battle, they faced the sun and their backs formed a river.

The young lord led the passionate warriors out of the high walls, leaving the ministers behind.

Anna and Annie did not accompany them this time. Anna had to help Li En control those spies, and Annie needed to stay to protect Anna.

Karel Dennis needs to temporarily take over Li En's duties to handle the affairs of the territory, but Li En has instructed that all choices he faces must be consulted with his maid Anna, and the opinions given by Anna represent Li En's opinions.

Alex Poole was still responsible for handling foreign affairs, while Finance Minister Omari Haney was responsible for organizing people to build the Empire State Building.

Fortunately, the bank's affairs are on the right track under the leadership of President Emron, and Omari Hani does not need to worry about it.

"I hope Lord Li En can return safely."

Karel Dennis watched the army retreating in the morning light.

"Don't worry, with the Ice Witch here, nothing will happen to Lord Li En."

Omari Haney said as he wiped the sweat from his face.

Alex Poole clenched his fists and said, "I really want to go on the expedition with Lord Li En."

With Annie's help, Anna came to the high wall. The twins stood side by side and watched Li En's departing back.

"Anna, if Lord Li En dies, there will be no one to wear the clothes I make."

"Annie, you are more suitable for making clothes for women. Give up men's clothing. The men's clothing you make is always too gorgeous, making Master Li En look like a grandstanding playboy."

Anna said honestly.

"No, that's the problem with Lord Li En's temperament."

Anne would never admit that the men's clothing she made was exaggerated. She believed that this was fashion and taste.

Anna shook her head and followed Li En's horse as they entered the dense forest.

When she could no longer see Li En, Annie suddenly asked,
"Lord Li En, why did you bring Father Seamus with you? Is it because the priest has the power of purification, to prevent the army from being bewitched by the tree monsters?"

Anna shook her head. "Perhaps Lord Li En is worried about the priest staying in Green Shade Territory."

Anna didn't quite understand why Li En always liked to make Ximo work overtime without pay.

After all, she couldn't see the heresy entry above Father Seamus's head.

But she could vaguely guess that Li En did not trust the priest very much.

On horseback, Li En smiled as he looked at Father Simo who was riding a black horse not far away.

"Don't look so gloomy, my friend. I won't force you to work overtime this time."
