Fairy Tale: Little Red Riding Hood's Wolf Mentor

Chapter 75 Soul Replacement
"Remember to cover your eyes, Qinghong, and complete this ceremony smoothly. Don't make me wait too long. Remember our contract, Qinghong. This will be the luckiest decision of your life."

The queen said this, sniffing the green and red apple in her hand.

The pitch-black coffin lid, controlled by magic, slowly closed on the coffin, covering the queen's face.

"As you wish, Your Majesty."

Poro replied.

He is not the Scarlet Witch herself. The so-called "partial magical experience" of [Spiral Beacon: Witch] certainly does not include all the messy personal memories of the Scarlet Witch herself.

Therefore, the Poros did not know what the contract they had made was.

We can only guess that it probably includes not being able to attack each other, and even the Red Witch cannot have any thoughts of harming the Queen!
Only an extremely strict contract can allow the Queen to safely accept the soul replacement of the Red Witch!
However, Poro knew some things, including knowledge about magical contracts.

This so-called contract, derived from the devil's contract, uses blood and soul as a symbol and seal of identity.

And most of them are soul contracts.

But no matter which one it is, it has nothing to do with Poro!

He doesn't have to worry about the impact of breaking the contract.

After all... one party to the contract is already dead.

Standing here is a wolf that has the appearance, breath, voice and even some magical skills of the Red Witch.

The Poro lowered his eyes, looking at the palace grounds.

He could see that in order to ensure the smooth progress of this ceremony, both the Red Witch and the Queen had made extremely detailed preparations.

The black coffin and the crystal coffin were placed at an extremely precise angle.

The ground beneath the two coffins was engraved with complex and mysterious patterns.

Through the magical experience from the Red Witch, Poro can recognize those lines and some of the meanings they symbolize -

Balance, soul, transaction, life...

"You may begin now, Your Majesty."

Poro said after taking a deep breath.

Then, a hint of green light flashed in his eyes, and he sensed that the queen had eaten the green side of the green-red apple.

Then, Poro's face began to change unsteadily.

The aura on his body began to jump between the Red Witch's and his own aura, as if he was quickly switching between disguise and non-disguise!

In fact, this is indeed the case.

In the disguised state, Poro cannot perform too many actions that exceed the upper limit, and large-scale spellcasting will also exceed this limit!

Only now, when no one is around, can he maintain the aura of the Red Witch and cast spells by quickly switching between disguise and normal state.

He scattered apple seeds one by one along the indicated lines drawn on the ground.

Under the influence of magic, the apple seeds quickly sprouted and grew. Unlike ordinary apples, they did not take root and grow into saplings. Instead, they transformed into green and red vines one after another.

The apple vines meandered, connecting and wrapping the two coffins.

More tender green shoots sprouted around the apple vines, and under the spell, they curled into complex shapes one after another.

The Poro's spells were chanting faster and faster.

Those vines gradually began to emit a tender green sheen.

At the same time, the vines wrapped around the two coffins sprouted buds, grew rapidly, and formed one flower bud after another!
Immediately afterwards, the buds on both sides bloomed into apple tree flowers at the same time!

But the colors of these flowers are not the same.

The flowers on the crystal coffin were all blood-red, while the flowers on the black coffin were a strange pink-green. The flowers on both sides began to extend towards the center.

It’s like something... is moving through these vibrant vines!

The Poro placed a hand on the central vine.

He was also nervous in his heart.

He had only been exposed to magic for two days. Magic was not a gentle thing, even plant magic like this.

He felt an extreme pain deep inside his body.

His blood vessels glowed with a strange luster, as if... they were about to spontaneously transform into green branches!
There was even a bluish tint on the skin, as if some new sprouts were growing out of thin air!

Such distorted pain is far beyond what ordinary people can endure!
If Poro did not have a soul independent of physical pain, he would lose all consciousness at the beginning of casting the spell due to the pain caused by the overload of casting the spell!

And once such a ceremony fails.

Regardless of whether the Queen and Snow White will die or not, with the magical knowledge that Poro has acquired, he himself will definitely die!
His eyes were fixed on the flowers blooming one after another on the vines.

When they were about to meet in the center, Poro's expression froze—

The opportunity has come!

From this moment on, the queen's soul and magic have been completely separated from her body. No matter what kind of magic she possesses, at this moment, she is like a prisoner who has lost her five senses!
"Let's get started, Lake!"

The Poro did not stop casting the spell, but shouted loudly.

He understood that this window of opportunity only lasted a few tens of seconds!
At the same time, in the corner of the palace, a Sino soldier wearing white armor suddenly moved!
Lake, wearing armor, took out a silver dagger from under his body with one hand, and with the other hand, he drew out Prince Boren's magic-destroying sword, and rushed to the top of the palace - where the king was!

At this moment, several other controlled guards in the palace also moved at the same time!
They surrounded and attacked Lake who was rushing towards the king at an extremely fast speed with an action that overdrew their potential and completely exceeded the upper limit of their body's endurance!
But... Lake's positioning bought a lot of time.

She was the first to rush to the king!

The special ribbon at the king's throat lit up, and then the puppet-like king actually moved. He drew the luxurious longsword at his waist and slashed at the charging Lake.

But the king's fragile body meant that even if his muscles were overdrawn to the limit, his movements were far inferior to those of the soldiers!
Lake used the dagger in her hand to block the king's sword, and swung the long sword in her other hand -

Blood spilled.

The king's two severed hands fell to the ground.

Lake did not stop moving, using the momentum of the sword to swing and cut off the king's legs again as he tried to escape!
Then, she threw down the Demon-Breaking Sword, and with an action that seemed to have been repeated for a long time, she flipped her hand, and the "Spell-Breaking Cone" from Prince Boren appeared between her two fingers!

Lake swiftly thrust the "Spiral Breaker" between the ribbons around the king's neck.

At the same time, a series of memorized spells quickly flowed from her mouth -

Inside the Shattering Cone, a sharp magical light suddenly burst out and then quickly went out. Along with it, the magical light on the surface of the ribbon around the king's neck also went out!

Behind Lake, the swords, spears, and knives that were already within reach fell to the ground with clanging sounds.

The ribbons around the necks of the Sinuo soldiers also lost their luster.

Starting from the palace, covering the entire palace complex, the bodies of maids, guards, soldiers, servants... one after another fell heavily to the ground, without a sound.

"Now, all the monsters have been cleared."

Poro looked at the scene around him and nodded slightly, but the solemnity in his eyes still did not disappear.

In front of him, on the apple vine connecting the two coffins, the brightly colored flowers with distinct paths had already passed each other and jumped towards the coffin on the other side.

"After that, comes the most difficult step—

Kill this...newly born queen!"
