Becoming a god by raising witches

Bronya Peters struggled, but ultimately succumbed to death.

"Please allow Bronya Peters, the successor of the Flame Witch, to pledge her allegiance to you and follow you toward defeat and the abyss."

Locke heard the familiar pledge of allegiance once again.

He raised his hand. "Get up. You are now my third knight. In the future, please get along well with Fini Sares and Antonia Madeline Megadalena."

"As ordered."

Bronya Peters said.

Why did you so resolutely choose death just now?

Locke asked.

"Because I was carrying a strange object, the C07 Knight's Medal, which allows me to gain twice the explosive power of my previous strength for half an hour after death, continuing the previous battle. The side effect is that my soul is annihilated after half an hour."

Bronya Peters removed the medal from the knight's armor and handed it to Locke.

"Can I use clones too?"

Locke asked tentatively.

Bronya Peters shook her head. "This... I don't know, but you can try it."

Locke continued to ask,

"If you no longer have the heart of a witch, do you still possess power?"

Bronya Peters shook her head. "No."

This is what puts Locke in a dilemma: should he make Bronya Peters his servant, or should he have Bronya Peters offer up her witch heart to feed Irene?

If every witch you hunt in the future becomes your servant, does that mean there are no witch hearts to offer to Eileen?

Wouldn't that defeat the original purpose of the plan to hunt witches?

Since witches who have transformed into immortals cannot be fed, and you can't fleece them a second time, it's more cost-effective to feed Irene.

Of course, the skills gained from feeding need to be upgraded by yourself, which takes time and may not be as fast as directly having an Undead Witch subordinate to increase overall combat power.

So this matter has both advantages and disadvantages.

"Have we discussed it?"

Eileen looked at Locke.

"Hmm, I can also use the power of fire, so she should just remain a servant. The next witch will definitely have her witch's heart pulled out directly."

Locke answered affirmatively.

"it is good."

Eileen responded.

Locke breathed a sigh of relief. Since Eileen was so easy to talk to, things would be much easier.

“Bronya Peters, I now order you to kill the witches of the Black Rose Organization and bring back their witch hearts.”

Locke said.

"Do your will."

Bronya Peters turned and vanished in a ball of flame.

However, her flames used to be orange-red, but now they are ghostly blue. The ghostly blue flames cannot be extinguished even when they encounter water, because they are the flames of the dead.

It's gone bad.

Eileen watched Bronya Peters's retreating figure and said calmly.

"I hope Katerina will like this gift."

Locke decided to go home as soon as possible and take Hannah with him.

……

The Queen's Castle.

The dark clouds and torrential rain that had been hanging overhead lasted only fifteen minutes before completely dissipating.

This made Katerina somewhat uneasy. She wrapped herself in a blanket and quickly went to the underground laboratory, where she found Igor West, a scholar of the alchemy sect.

“Igor, did you feel it just now? That unusual weather.”

"The weather is indeed extremely extreme, and I sense an unusual aura. It seems that there is a demigod-level necromancer in Kosork. Your Majesty, you must be careful."

"Igor West said wistfully."

Necromancer?

Renis, who was following Katerina, remembered the necromancer Locke had mentioned before. Could it be the same person?

"Why necromancers? Can they summon such extreme weather?"

Katerina asked.

"No, Your Majesty, they know nothing about the weather, but a demigod-level necromancer can awaken the weather witch Antonia Madeline Magdalena, who has been dead for hundreds of years, and use Antonia's abilities to create such extreme weather."

Scholar Igor West explained.

"A demigod-level necromancer, Antonia Madeline Magdalena? Are these all my enemies?"

Katerina frowned.

She doesn't like variables.

“Renise, inform the church of this news and have Cardinal Nob Stott find the necromancer hiding in Kosork.”

Katerina gave the order.

"Yes, as you wish."

Renee left with the order, reminding him as she turned to leave.

"Your Majesty, Bronya Peters has not yet returned. Should we send someone to provide support?"

"Shaluna, go check on Bronya and see what's wrong with her."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Renis and Sharuna left the palace together, heading in two different directions.

Locke and several witches were already traveling home in a carriage without stopping.

Fortunately, his crimes have not yet been publicized, and have not yet affected Hannah's work and career.

"Hannah, Angela, we have to get out of here."

Locke had considered that he might run away one day, but that would be after the war started. He never expected that he would be targeted by Katerina before the war even began.

It must be said that Katerina has a very keen eye.

If left unchecked, it could indeed become a hidden danger for Her Majesty the Queen.

"leave?"

The two said in unison.

"Yes, let's go now. You guys go to the reindeer farm and wait for me. I still have some things to take care of."

While Renis was still in the palace and he was still the team leader, Locke planned to bring Dimo ​​out.

Although the Church of Knowledge is a terrifying organization, Katerina is no less so.

Since the Queen has already made up her mind to get rid of him, he has no reason to let her have an easy time.

Let things get chaotic! The more chaotic the better, so that I can take advantage of the situation—no, I mean find a way to survive.

Locke had never intended to confront Katerina directly, but now he had no choice but to.

In terms of current combat strength, Katerina not only has the Black Rose Organization's guard, but also the support of the Cathedral of Life and the high-ranking members of the Alchemy Cult.

On his side, there were only Irene, Bronya Peters, Finney Sares, Antonia Madeline Megadalena, Rebecca who always wanted to become a rogue ninja, and Alice who was still inexperienced.

Therefore, even if the intellectual sect consists of madmen, they must be won over for the time being.

Otherwise, I have absolutely no chance of winning.

Compared to No. 11 in Peggs, the Reindeer Farm on the outskirts of the West End is definitely safer.

There are arrays drawn by Eileen there, and most importantly, it's close to the territory of the necromancer Rosalia Jiménez, so you can call for help in a critical moment.

After giving his instructions to his family, Locke set off for the church.

Unfortunately, I happened to see Renis.

She was also rushing into the church.

Locke could only hide in a corner and wait for Renis to leave.

His keen hearing and sense of smell allowed him to detect Rhaenys's movements.

Renis also sensed the familiar presence. She turned and walked towards the crowd, where believers were either praying or exchanging their thoughts.

To avoid being discovered by Rhaenys, Locke immediately hid inside Lux's long dress.

Lux is a kind nun who had dinner at Locke's house and considered Locke a friend.
