"Me? Me?"

Ivy pointed at herself in disbelief.

"Can I really kill him?"

That's impossible!

With her perception as a witch of fate, she knew perfectly well who the blond man before her was.

If anyone wanted to die the most, it would definitely be this blond man in front of you.

Although the other party looked like he had already been dealt with by Xie Bai, his body was broken and he looked like he was easy to bully.

But no matter what, it's not her place to step on the other person's head.

Although she is one of Xie Bai's favorites, she can borrow some of Xie Bai's power.

But this doesn't mean she can completely suppress her opponent like Xie Bai...

Seeing Ivy's timid and hesitant appearance, Atoris grabbed her shoulder with a huff.

"What's there to be afraid of? If it really comes down to it, I'll go with you to hold him down."

"Uh, that's not necessary."

Ivy carefully released Atoris's hand from her body.

Although Xie Bai is present now, Atoris will behave more normally, and may even step in to help.

But she happened to have seen what the other person was like when Xie Bai wasn't around, and she remembered it even more vividly.

Xie Bai has now learned to take the initiative to care for others, which is something to be happy about.

But if possible, she still hoped that Xie Bai could show more concern for the other party.

Otherwise, she was really afraid that one day in the future, Xie Bai would disappear again due to some accident, causing some unnecessary trouble.

As for herself…

Never mind, she doesn't really care about these things.

It's at least not as serious as Atori.

After declining Atoris's offer, Ivy mustered her courage and approached Prospero.

Feeling Xie Bai's gaze from afar, Ivy felt a sense of security.

She looked up at the blond man with long, flowing hair and long eyelashes.

"Gulp..."

No, I'm still so scared.

The hostility that desperately wanted to kill him still lingered in Prospero.

Ivy's body trembled uncontrollably whenever she got even slightly close...

【This won't do, my lovely witch.】

Ok?

"Who?!"

"Who...who's speaking..."

Could it be...?

Ivy raised her head and looked at Prospero's downcast face.

"Yes, it is me. Prospero, the god of fate."

As you can see, we possess similar authority and power, which is why I can communicate with you in your mind's eye first.

However, your current power is still very weak; you can't even manage the most basic connection of fate, let alone compare to me.

If it weren't for this void force interfering, I really would want to finish you off right now and reclaim the authority that belongs to me.

"Ugh...!"

Ivy instinctively wanted to take a step back, but when she thought of Xie Bai and the others behind her, she suppressed her fear and faced Prospero head-on.

"So, what's the reason?"

"You can't touch me now, but you'll still be... you'll be... by me later..."

Wait…

How do I absorb this person's power of destiny?

He is different from the previous incarnations and remains; he is a living, breathing true god.

She's not even strong enough to defeat Atoris right now, how could she possibly fight Prospero?

What if she accidentally gets possessed by the other party?

"hiss…"

Just as she was hesitating, Prospero's voice rang out again.

Are you that afraid of me?

I still prefer your untamed self from 30 million years ago, to how you are now.

"???"

Ivy looked up, somewhat puzzled.

"You...you like me?"

"Are you... a lolicon?"

As she spoke, Ivy turned back to look at Xie Bai and the others.

As if confirming something, she turned to look at Prospero with a look of disdain.

"Huh..."

"No wonder you couldn't beat us, you're terrifying."

【…】

Prospero's drooping eyelashes twitched slightly.

[Just like 30 million years ago, their mouths are still so talkative.]

Upon hearing Prospero's second emphasis, Ivy finally realized the key point and scratched her head, asking a question.

"Thirty million years ago?"

"Did I know you so long ago?"

"Hmm, so I've lived this long? I only remember things from the last million years..."

Unbeknownst to her, Ivy's fear of Prospero seemed to have lessened considerably.

After a moment of silence, Prospero responded.

Forget it, I'm not going to bring up these old stories with you.

"You want to seize my power? If you do, put your hand on me, and I'll personally instill it in you."

Consider this my concession to you from thirty million years ago.

Faced with Prospero's sudden compromise, Ivy quickly took a step back warily.

"Why... are you being so kind?"

"I find it hard not to believe you're bluffing me."

Prospero chuckled lightly at Ivy's wariness.

Am I bluffing you?

Let's talk about removing that void power from your body first.

As he spoke, a hint of weariness suddenly crept into Prospero's voice.

【well…】

Thirty million years ago, you mocked me, saying I couldn't possibly untangle these complex and tangled threads of fate, and that it would be better to just hand them over to you.

Looking back now, it all seems a bit surreal.

Since you're so willing, I'd like to see if you can do even better than me.

Anyway, so much time has passed, and I'm getting a bit tired.

As Ivy listened to Prospero's monologue, she couldn't help but frown.

"Really? They've given up so easily?"

【Um? 】

Are you scared?

"Who, who's scared..."

Ivy puffed out her cheeks, a sense of resentment rising from somewhere, and moved directly towards Prospero, raising her hand.

"Let's see what you can do to me..."

Having said that, Ivy hardened her heart and placed her hands on his body as Prospero described.

Upon seeing this, a smile appeared on Prospero's unchanging face.

Alright then, this mess is yours to clean up.

As he spoke, Prospero's body began to emit specks of starlight, which gradually faded away.

At the same time, Ivy felt a powerful force forcibly filling her body, almost causing her to collapse.

She subconsciously followed the divine connection and borrowed Xie Bai's void power to mitigate the immense impact.

"Hmm..."

"It's...it's alright."

With Xie Bai as her backer, Ivy barely accepted the instilling of power from Prospero.

Just as Prospero's body was about to completely dissipate, his voice rang in Ivy's mind again.

By the way, Lady Witch, do you remember your origins?

"W-What's your background?"

Don't be so confused. As your strength increases, you'll probably regain all those memories.

I hope that when I wake up, I'll hear some good stories.

But before that, let me get some sleep first.

After saying that, Prospero's voice completely faded away.

"Wait, what are you saying..."

Suddenly, Ivy felt a warm sensation on her face.

She instinctively reached out and touched it.

It's wet.

"What does this mean...?"

Before she could figure it out, a familiar voice seemed to ring in her ears.

It's vague, but the meaning is very clear.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"Why is my little darling crying? Did fate play a cruel trick on you?"

"Don't worry, big sister is right here."

"Would you like a pat on the head or a hug this time?"

"Or perhaps you'd like me to take you to the High Court again?"
