Witch Redemption

Of course, Clive's attack didn't stop there. He swung his raised right hand violently again, slamming it hard onto the woman's head, seemingly stunning her.

This is the reality of "forced rape," a kind of unreasonable violence that aims to overpower a woman, rendering her powerless to resist and forcing her to submit to the violence without any necessary resistance. Even worse, some perpetrators beat a beautiful woman half to death before forcibly raping her.

Upon closer reflection, in the original world of transmigrators like "witches," the so-called "rape cases" are almost always accompanied by horrific acts of violence. Such bestial behavior that violates human morality and conscience can not only leave women with lifelong psychological trauma, but also directly lead to death quite often.

In this other world, the so-called "forced exposure" is the same. The more the victim resists, the more excited the perpetrator becomes. When they get carried away, they may even consider killing the victim directly and then desecrating the corpse.

These elven males, their minds clouded by bestiality, had lost all reason. They only wanted the dark elf woman to immediately give up resisting, then to tear off all her clothes and plunder everything she had.

"Heh heh, go ahead and scream! You can scream your lungs out and no one will come to save you! Hahaha!"

With a ferocious grin, Corif continued his assault, raising his fist once more to slam it down. He wanted to completely knock out this still conscious woman, otherwise, if she resisted too fiercely, he wouldn't be able to do anything and wouldn't be able to enjoy himself.

However, to his surprise, his hopes were dashed.

...... ...... ......

The sudden attack, like a violent storm, was unleashed upon Li Lan within a minute.

Clearly, this was a premeditated scheme. These five male elves were taking a risk to satisfy their desires, constantly monitoring his movements. They concealed all their presence to ambush him from this place, and even the several high-level spells they were casting were used specifically for him.

Such a grand gesture left Li Lan somewhat bewildered. It wasn't until the enormous fist was about to smash him to pieces that the life-threatening crisis ignited his anger, causing him to calm down.

To be honest, his current physical abilities are completely equivalent to those of a legendary adventurer, and he is incredibly strong. However, being ambushed and restrained at every turn by these five diamond-level adventurers, he really couldn't put up much effective resistance.

Fortunately, Li Lan was physically strong. When he fought his way out of the Luen tribe last time, he was covered in hundreds of wounds, some of which were even fatal, but he did not faint on the spot, let alone these violent punches now.

I'm going to kill you all!

The murderous intent that filled his mind made Li Lan more ruthless than ever before. He was never the kind of person to sit and wait for death. The moment his right hand finally broke free from its restraints again, he instinctively reached for the spatial pouch at his waist and grabbed the natal magic book.

"Oh! How could I possibly let you succeed!"

With quick reflexes, Isaac grabbed Li Lan's right hand in time, and used his other hand to try to snatch the storage pouch.

Isaac acted quickly enough and did manage to restrain the guy's right hand and take the storage pouch, but the black book that the guy had pulled out stunned everyone present.

This book is strange; its black cover has a lot of fine gold leaf veins that look like real leaves, and it also has a faint rainbow-like hue.

"A witch? This guy is a witch?"

"Just like you just said, let's start now!"

The suddenly opened grimoire emitted a faint light, and then one after another, human figures began to appear around it, all exuding murderous intent.

"From now on, no matter how much you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you!"

Chapter 6 Contradictions

In an instant, the offensive reversed, and the fifteen humanoid followers that appeared immediately swarmed forward.

"This...this..."

This is how the same thing?

One second they had just discovered Roman Hydra's secret of being a witch, and the next second all these humanoid monsters appeared out of nowhere.

With a moment's distraction, the five elven men who were holding Li Lan hostage didn't even have time to react before they were completely subdued by a flurry of hands, leaving them no chance to put up any effective resistance.

It's important to understand that Li Lan's followers are at least at level 36 in terms of magic grimoire, higher than him. In other words, these creations, possessing only low-level intelligence, are at the lowest level of legendary adventurers, and they cannot be defeated without destroying their core intelligence.

With such a powerful follower, wouldn't he be just slaughtering these five adventurers who are only at the diamond level?

"what--"

In an instant, all five audacious perverts had their limbs removed and began to scream like pigs being slaughtered.

Li Lan merely turned pale, straightened her disheveled clothes, and nonchalantly turned her head away.

What should we do next?

He stood there, looking down at the five men, his eyes fixed on their faces contorted with pain. He saw fear and despair in their eyes.

Utter despair!

"Leave one alive, kill the rest."

The best way to deal with rapists like this is to send them to hell without any hesitation.

Not to mention in this world, even in her past life, Li Lan has always had an unusual aversion to rapists.

Even the most hardcore otaku knows that fantasizing is fine, but putting it into action is beastly behavior. There are no physical urges that can't be relieved by oneself; a simple trip to the toilet with a pack of tissues is all it takes. Why take the risk and embark on a path of crime?

Humans are not beasts, and humans must never be dominated by animalistic instincts.

As Li Lan spoke, these extremely loyal followers, without saying a word, pressed down on these incredibly strong elven men, twisted their heads violently like braids, and with a cracking sound of bones breaking, twisted them 180 degrees, instantly ending their lives.

"Wait! Don't kill me! Please don't kill me!"

As the mastermind behind the attack, Corif, who had been spared his life, pleaded desperately.

Even now, his mind is still blank. In just a few short minutes, things have taken so many turns. He originally thought this woman was just a lamb to the slaughter, but the next second she turned out to be as fierce as a wolf. Who could resist that?

Originally, these elven warriors had planned to use magic to fight back, but these suddenly appearing humanoid monsters were just too strong. They crippled the limbs of all the participants present in the first place, and now they had even taken down four of them without hesitation. How could this not make Kolifer feel terrified?

Collier's inner desires had long since vanished under the stimulation of the life-threatening crisis, leaving only a strong survival instinct.

"Speak, why did you attack me? What do you want to do to me?"

On the surface, it was to leave room for maneuver in this matter, but in reality, Li Lan knew very well that these guys knew his secret as a witch, so from now on, they had to be killed no matter what. If they weren't eliminated completely, there would definitely be future troubles.

"I'll tell you! I'll tell you! It's like this..."

"I see, lust at first sight? And holding back for too long will cause problems. Other male elves have been eyeing me for a long time, which is troublesome."

Li Lan touched her face, wondering, "No matter what, most witches aren't bad looking, so it's not surprising that they appeal to the aesthetics of these intelligent beings."

Even back in the British Empire, there were rumors that the witches loyal to the empire had had relationships with their male superiors, which is probably not entirely unfounded.

"Oh, this is troublesome. How should we handle this afterward?"

Upon hearing this, Kolif, whose limbs had already been crippled, thought the witch was showing mercy and immediately begged for mercy again, "I promise I won't tell anyone about tonight's events, please let me go, I really won't say anything, I won't say anything..."

"I see."

Upon hearing this, Corif finally showed a hint of joy, but the condescending demon uttered another sentence that plunged him completely into the abyss of darkness.

"Send him on his way, and then dispose of all their bodies."

Only the dead can give people a sense of security. Li Lan wasn't stupid enough to trust a rapist. She would just kill these guys and then dispose of the bodies.

...... ...... ......

As usual, the black-haired Yuuki, along with the blonde Yuuki and Leviathan, began drawing their own personal comics as a pastime.

Suddenly, Yu Hui, with his black hair, frowned slightly and said to Leviathan through the soundproof enclosure, "This servant has run into a little trouble."

"What should we do? Should we go and help him?" Leviathan abandoned his usual timid demeanor, his words carrying a hint of anger.

“No need for that, he can handle it himself,” sighed, and the black-haired Yu Hui raised his right hand, as if testing his strength, and squeezed it. “Leviathan, sometimes I’m curious, what kind of existence is this servant to us?”

"Didn't you say that he's just a pawn to be used, a toy for us? If we can use him to get to that world in the future, we can just throw him away without any problem." Leviathan's words were devoid of any human emotion, making no attempt to hide his indifference as an ancient creator.

"From our perspective, that's certainly true. We just follow him around for fun. But from the servant's point of view, what are we?"

Black-haired Yu Hui would sometimes be troubled by this. Normally, since most of their power was sealed, they would be this guy's "little brothers". But that wasn't actually the case. This servant respected them and treated them as equals. In a way, this guy was more like playing the role of a real "servant".

"Doesn't he often call us 'big brothers'? In his eyes, we're like his lifeline, right?" Leviathan hadn't spent much time with Li Lan and didn't have as many complicated feelings as Hei Fa Yu Hui, so he spoke very bluntly.

"That's a bit of a shame. With our current strength, we can at most keep him alive. Moreover, recently I've started to wonder how far the 'false gods' of this world have developed during our slumber, and whether they could even pose a threat to us, the avatars of true gods?"

Ten thousand years ago, the world, which should have been destroyed, was preserved because of a wager between the true gods. All the gods in the present world died out, making way for all intelligent beings.

These intelligent beings possess terrifying ambitions. Unlike toys that cannot defy the will of the true gods, these intelligent beings have "rebellion" flowing in their veins, allowing them to seize the power that the ancient gods should have possessed. Could it be like the story once told by the witch "Karen," opening a "Pandora's box" and causing endless calamities in the future?

"Isn't this a very interesting thing?" Leviathan's expression was somewhat amused. "In our endless lifespan, we are here to see all sorts of fun. Some thrill-seekers even like to send their clones into the game, and then perish together in the process... If these ants really rebel against us, and even attract the attention of our main body, what wonderful spiritual nourishment will the immense despair of completely crushing them become?"

"That's right, that's what I think too, but I'm worried we might not be able to enjoy it!" Black-haired Yu Hui's expression rarely showed such regret.

"Why?" Leviathan, no, the true god Abhoth, had always been the kind of person who stayed at home and didn't know much about anything that had happened in this world.

“This witch is special. Her creations can restrain us creators to a certain extent, and you’ve also noticed that her own body can resist the mad blood of higher beings. She told us before that her strength might remain at its current level forever. At that time, we suspected that it might be related to the stability of her body, so we secretly made her lose control once. You should understand what that behavior meant.”

Indeed, unbeknownst to Li Lan, these two delighted ancient creators had long since regarded him not merely as a toy, but as an experimental subject, an excellent material for researching "witch summoning."

"That is......"

"The witch summoning was originally intended to target the ancient creator. I suspect these false gods involved in witch summoning might have discovered something. In other words, if our power, which has been sealed to a certain extent, is exposed and we are captured by these false gods, hmph..."

Not to mention that these minor avatars of true gods might die, even this witch, who has double protection, might perish.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Leviathan's face turned panicked again. If this bastard had said so earlier, she definitely wouldn't have considered going down to the mortal realm and would have chosen to continue sleeping.

"Shut up! Getting you involved and then facing the consequences together, that's what makes it exciting!"

"Waaah—"

"In short, I have a strong feeling that if this servant really goes to that elven kingdom this time, something might happen to him. We need to take precautions in advance."

"Can't you just not go?"

Black-haired Yu Hui waved his hand dismissively. "I know this servant better than you do. He's the kind of person who would risk his life for his beliefs."

"I don't care whether he lives or not, but I really want my life. I haven't lived enough yet. Damn it, I have to stop him!"

While Black-haired Yu Hui and Leviathan were secretly discussing things, Joseph, who was restless, had not yet seen the witch return and was becoming increasingly anxious.

"Excuse me, I need to leave for a bit. Please be careful while I'm gone."

The handsome young elf got up and walked towards the distant ruins, the very place where Roman Hydra had disappeared ten minutes earlier.

"Aren't you going to stop him?" Leviathan tried to call out to the young man, but was stopped by the black-haired Yu Hui.

“No need. This Joseph is quite interesting. He’s probably fallen in love. We should give that servant a headache.”

...... ...... ......

What is "love"?

Joseph was unaware that, from the time he was old enough to understand, the so-called "love" was nothing more than a vague and ethereal concept found only in epic poems; love had never existed in this world.

Like his father, Gian Hobert, who had six wives, none of whom were based on any "love".

"There is no love in this world, nor is there any need for love. Love is just an excuse to cover up one's desires. In the end, isn't loving someone just a desire to procreate with her and an attempt to possess her? Desire is desire. Why should so-called 'lust' be given a beautiful and righteous name?"

This is the value system of this world: loving her is for the purpose of having sex with her. It is a courtship method unique to primitive intelligent beings, and there is no need to hide the ugliness of desire.

In other words, the vast majority of women in this world are destined to be nothing more than tools.
