I don't want to conquer witches anymore.

Cecil was also active in the lawless underworld of the floating city, outwitting and outmaneuvering drug dealers, cults, and pyramid schemes, dismantling them one after another. The secret forces had no intention of bothering her—firstly, because she was openly and legitimately fighting bandits; they were a regular military intelligence organization, why would they bother with her? Wouldn't that just cause them trouble?

Secondly, it's because... they can't beat her anyway, so why bother with her? Wouldn't that just cause them trouble?

Anne wasn't as skilled as Guangbao, but her tracking techniques were professional-level. She was the only member of the insurgent squad who could rival the secret service in terms of professional skills. Unless she wanted to, the secret service simply couldn't track her down.

Needless to say, Kokoro and Zun are even less likely to be detected. The former is an invisible and intangible shadow, while the latter is not even within the intelligence of the secret unit.

Amber, on the other hand, wasn't worried at all about being followed by the secret forces. As far as she knew, no one else in the entire floating city could match her teleportation speed, and no matter how talented the secret forces were, they wouldn't have another space witch.

Her only worry was that Duke might suddenly be captured or involved in some unexpected event and disappear from her sight. Therefore, she secretly left a spatial coordinate on Duke so that she could determine his location immediately and rush there as quickly as possible, no matter where he went or what happened to him.

Amber withdrew from the spatial rift and landed on the door of a small house. This house was very strangely detached and isolated from the other houses. Although it was beautifully decorated, it was definitely not a luxurious mansion with a courtyard. It was just a small detached house, and only two people lived in it.

Amber hesitated for a moment, then reached out and pressed the doorbell, waiting for the guests inside to come out of the house.

About three or four seconds later, the door opened a crack, and a head peeked out from behind it. The head cautiously glanced at Amber before opening the door completely and greeting her in surprise, "Amber, you really came? Come in quickly, before Geyue notices."

Amber looked at the owner of the detached house—Natasha, who hadn't appeared for a long time.

The conservatively dressed succubus was holding a thick book and wearing glasses, looking like a literary girl. However, she did not give off a quiet or ascetic feeling... Instead, she looked very alluring. Every smile, every gesture of hers touched the hearts of humans.

Even though Amber was the same gender as her, she was still momentarily captivated and momentarily dazed by this allure.

She shook her head and returned to normal in the shortest amount of time—in the past, Amber would not have been able to return to normal so quickly, but recently she had been staring at Duke's pretty face with a charm rating of 25 for too long, and she had developed a certain resistance to the charm ability.

"Ah, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry." Amber's momentary daze startled Natasha, who quickly took two steps back and withdrew her innate ability. "I don't usually pay much attention to controlling my innate abilities at home, I forgot."

"It's okay, I understand."

Natasha's racial talents are considered quite strong even among succubi. There aren't many succubi like her who possess an innate allure, and it's unclear whether it's her inner resistance to this ability that makes it so powerful. However, Amber's visit to Natasha today wasn't to help this succubus witch resolve her personal problems.

Amber followed Natasha into the detached house. Geyue, Natasha's bodyguard, was not present. The two entered Natasha's room one after the other, and then Amber eagerly asked:

"Miss Amber, what's the situation with Duke? Why is he wanted? Is he still alive? Is he alright? Is his soul damaged? Has he found a suitable body?"

After learning of Duke's "death," Natasha was on the verge of collapse and completely unable to work... But in less than a month, she experienced a dramatic turn of events—Duke suddenly "came back to life" and became a wanted criminal by the floating city authorities.

Amber raised an eyebrow and looked at the succubus lady in front of her. Her eagerness made Amber sense a familiar aura, the aura of a rival in love... What's going on? Doesn't she like women?

Oh, if it's a succubus, then it's perfectly normal for it to be either male or female.

Amber didn't panic. After living with Duke, Cecil, and Anne, her threshold as the main wife was now very high. This kind of rival who didn't even have a hint of a relationship couldn't move her mind at all—wait a minute, thinking about it, Natasha and Duke kissed!

The fairy princess immediately became alert, scrutinized Natasha for a few seconds, and then began to recount what had happened.

"I see."

After listening to Amber's words, Natasha breathed a long sigh of relief, patted her towering breasts that stood proudly among witches, and said thankfully, "That's great, it's so good that Duke is alright... By the way, Miss Amber, what brings you here today? You didn't just come to tell me the good news that Duke is alright, did you?"

She tilted her head slightly, looking a little puzzled.

"Of course not, I came here to ask for your help."

Amber shook her head, not only to deny Natasha's question, but also to clear her mind of distracting thoughts. Then, in a pleading tone, she begged Natasha:

"Natasha, help me, I want to become stronger... I want to become a legend!"

Chapter 303 Madness is a Contagious Disease

Natasha blinked, somewhat puzzled. To be honest, she couldn't understand why Amber wanted to become a legend and would come to her for help—she was an elf princess, after all, with far more resources than she did, and she knew far more powerful figures. Asking her how to become a legend was pointless; Amber wasn't a legend herself, so how could she possibly answer such a question? Asking her brother would be more reliable than asking her, wouldn't it?

She and Amber stared at each other for a moment, when a somewhat annoyed voice came from behind the door. In front of the two who had suddenly become tense, Ge Yue pushed open the door, sighed, and explained for Amber, "Idiot, she wants to use the Gate of Truth."

“To be honest, it is true.” Amber nodded, then looked at Natasha with hopeful eyes again. “I would like to borrow your Gate of Truth.”

Amber was indeed a beloved elven princess, and the elven race was known for producing powerful spellcasters. There were three legendary spellcasters serving as advisors in the current elven royal palace alone. However, even in the history of the elven kingdom, there had never been such an oddity as Amber. As a spellcaster, she knew nothing but spatial magic, not even a single spell trick. Yet, the only spatial magic she possessed directly targeted the core of space. With this one spell and its various variations, she managed to elevate herself to the level of an elite (level 10-14) spellcaster.

Even legendary Planeswalkers would find it difficult to possess such a high level of spatial understanding.

Such a bizarre history is hard to find. Perhaps only in the floating city, a city that gathers a large number of eccentric spellcasters, did a space witch similar to her once emerge.

However, the era of the Space Witch on the floating city is long ago. Even now, it would be difficult for Lady Fei to explain to her what path that legendary witch took, or how she managed to reach the legendary level by relying solely on spatial magic.

In other words, even if Amber came to the floating city, no one could guide her on how to become stronger.

Amber and Duke were originally similar in style, both being "go-with-the-flow" types who practically wanted to just lie down and do whatever they wanted, recklessly using their outrageous spatial talents and having no desire to become stronger. Heaven knows what triggered her to suddenly want to find a way to become stronger.

As Geyue entered the room, she frowned. Amber's information naturally came to mind. She pointed to Natasha, who was uneasy about "meeting Amber," and said irritably, "This idiot can't control the Gate of Truth and can't create the knowledge you need... Otherwise, I would have become a legend long ago, and you wouldn't be in the running."

“I know all that, but I think I’m pretty lucky,” Amber said with a grin. “What if?”

"Nothing can happen, she truly is an innocent princess."

Ge Yue rolled her eyes. Even though she was usually expressionless, she couldn't control her emotions after hearing Amber's naive words. She was such a hard-working person, yet she couldn't find any hope of becoming a legend. How could she not be angry when this pampered little princess suddenly said such naive things? She was so angry that she forgot to eavesdrop outside the door!

She walked up to Natasha, shielding her behind her, and asked directly, "Amber, why do you suddenly want to become a legend?"

"Gezuki, Gezuki, that's very impolite of you to talk like that."

Kagetsu shoved Natasha, who was peeking out from behind her, back inside, and then muttered a short curse: "Shut up, you idiot."

As Amber watched the interaction between the two girls in front of her, she recalled the rumors about Natasha, and her expression became somewhat subtle.

Although it appears on the surface that Kagetsu is unilaterally abusing the succubus, the intimacy and care in their actions are undeniable. Their relationship is far better than their seemingly rough interactions suggest. Kagetsu's rudeness stems from her concern for Natasha—and who knows, maybe this succubus just has a thing for that? It's no wonder this race has such outrageous fetishes.

Why did Amber, who had always been content with nothing and simply lay low, suddenly want to become stronger and become that ethereal legend?

Amber thought for a moment, then said with a serious expression, "Because Duke's current body is a divine body, he has extremely powerful strength in every move he makes, and mortals simply cannot have normal contact with him."

Kazuki had a bad feeling, but she still subconsciously asked:

"so what?"

"So... if I want to hug him, if I want to kiss him, if I want to explore those positions in the drow elf art book with him, I have to become a legend!" Amber clenched her fists and said indignantly, "I want to lie down too, but for our happy sex life, I have to work hard!"

Kazuki and Natasha: "?"

The atmosphere suddenly became strange. Geyue turned her head and exchanged a glance with Natasha, who was equally confused. Her eyes seemed to say, "This lewd elf is more like a succubus than you, a natural succubus!"

The reason given by the seductive elf was so shocking that it completely stunned the originally aggressive Kazuki, and also stunned Natasha. As for whether this was the real reason... perhaps.

Amber watched their disarray and smiled slightly, as she involuntarily recalled those scenes.

In the Candy Castle, there's the scene of being cornered by the Cookie Space Sword Saint; in the Cinderella Game, there's the scene of having his spatial abilities cut off by the world's mechanics; and... a few days ago, in the Quantum Floating City, there's the scene of being locked in a strange, heavy space, unable to protect his friends and himself.

Once you become a legend, you won't be in dire straits at crucial moments, right?

Once you become a legend, you'll be happy to help Duke in crucial moments, right?

Amber slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, then pressed her advantage, suggesting, "Natasha, shall we begin now?"

“Sure, but I don’t think you’ll find anything useful from the Gate of Truth.” Natasha nodded, casually preparing a spell to open the Gate of Truth. “Finding useful knowledge from the Gate of Truth is a very difficult thing… the Gate of Truth.”

Before the words were even finished, the door to truth opened in this narrow space.

Immediately afterward, to Natasha and Kazuki's astonishment, Amber stepped forward and walked into the Gate of Truth without hesitation!

The Gate of Truth could only be opened for a very short time. As soon as Amber entered, the gate closed immediately, leaving only Natasha and Kazuki staring at each other in disbelief. About three or four seconds later, when they realized what had happened, their screams filled the room:

"Waaaaah! Geyue, something terrible has happened!!!"

"I saw it! Holy crap, she's gone mad?! How can she be as mad as Duke?! What? Madness can be contagious through sex?!"

Chapter 304 The Armored Witch

Stephanie hid in the shadows of the street, her gaze fixed on Duke and Ida as they walked down. The glasses she wore on her nose shielded her from most magical effects, so Duke's illusion spell to conceal his true appearance had no effect on her.

After unexpectedly seeing Duke in person, she immediately recognized the wanted criminal and began to secretly follow and stalk him.

She is one of the witches of the floating city and a member of the secret force directly under the Floating City Lord's Mansion. Originally, Stephanie's squad was responsible for tracking Amber, but tracking Amber was too difficult. After several attempts, they had no choice but to give up and suspend their operation.

In other words, Stephanie was actually on her day off when she unexpectedly met Duke, and immediately started working overtime.

"I hope that after my boss finds out that he has such a good employee like me, he will double my year-end bonus."

Stephanie, who was on vacation and finding things to do for herself, kept an eye on Duke and Ida's actions while praying expectantly, hoping that her good wishes would come true.

Of course, she didn't intend to approach Duke. He was the legendary "witch killer." If a beautiful witch like her were to rashly approach Duke, she might be seduced by this notorious scumbag from the floating city, then used and discarded!

Stephanie's goal was simply to follow Duke until she discovered his hiding place, then report the valuable intelligence to her superiors and achieve the secret unit's KPIs for the year.

Even in a world of swords and magic, the lives of corporate slaves and office workers remain miserable.

Hello.

But just then, a hand suddenly patted Stephanie's shoulder, startling her. She quickly turned to look beside her and saw Annie, another target of their secret unit, standing next to her.

"Holy crap?!"

Stephanie reacted quickly, taking a step back to create distance between herself and Annie. She crossed her hands in front of her chest and made several hand gestures, causing five or six different colors to appear on her body in quick succession, casting five or six protective spells on herself. Then she retreated continuously, trying to further increase the distance between herself and Annie.

However, Stephanie, who was retreating, suddenly bumped the back of her head on something that was somewhere between hard and soft. She instinctively stopped and turned around, only to see her target standing behind her. What Stephanie's head had just bumped was Duke's pectoral muscles, while Ida stood obediently behind Duke, peeking out and curiously looking at Stephanie.

"Holy crap?!"

The volunteer worker, who had voluntarily worked overtime on her day off, suddenly jumped up, placed her hands in front of her chest, and made different hand gestures again, adding five or six more protective spells to herself, who already had five or six. In less than ten breaths, facing a situation with wolves in front (Annie) and tigers behind (Duke), Stephanie unhesitatingly transformed herself into an impenetrable wall.

Her proficiency made Duke think to himself: Is the training plan of your city lord's secret troops just to practice how to stack armor in the shortest amount of time?

He rolled his eyes and advised, "Relax, we don't intend to attack you... This is the ground street of the floating city. We're not stupid. If we attacked here, wouldn't we be asking to be surrounded? You should have used magic to notify your superiors the moment you were discovered, right?"

"……Oh."

Stephanie suddenly realized, then raised her hands and made a gesture. Magic then transformed into an elusive force and signal, which traveled towards the distant city lord's mansion.

Duke: "?"

Is she really a member of the secret service? Doesn't she have even this much professionalism? She was so focused on stacking armor that she forgot to call for reinforcements?

Duke rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

He had long since discovered that Stephanie was following him. After obtaining the yandere's tracking diary, his tracking and counter-tracking abilities had undergone a qualitative leap. As for Annie, needless to say, she was the author of the yandere's tracking diary herself. There was no reason why she couldn't do what Duke could do. Even Ida, who seemed the most harmless of the three, had noticed Stephanie's tracking early on.

If they wanted to, they could have easily shaken off Stephanie without her noticing; there was no need to force her to accelerate at lightning speed to save her life. The reason they blocked her escape route was because Duke wanted to ask her some questions.

"Ahem." Duke coughed and asked seriously, "Does your secret service know why Carol has put a bounty on me?"

Stephanie's gaze was somewhat strange. She shook her head and then asked in return, "Isn't it because you seduced the City Lord and then abandoned him, thus angering Lady Carol?"

"What nonsense? How could that be!" Duke's lips twitched slightly, then he lowered his head and ruffled Ida's hair. "So you don't know her either?"

Stephanie first focused her gaze on the little girl next to Duke. She silently scrutinized Ida's face for a while, then shook her head in denial.

She doesn't seem to be lying.
