From RE0, Sato Kazuma decided to cheat on food and drink

"No, Sloth didn't die. Or rather, it returned to its original form and became the being called Jus again."

"How is this possible? This is different from what I saw!"

Echidna looked at Subaru Natsuki in disbelief.

"what have you done?"

"It's not that I did anything, it's that Aqua and Kazuma did it!"

"Aqua? Kazuma?"

Echidna had never heard of either of those names before.

Her soul resides in the City of Dreams—everything Echidna knows is what her past self saw using her powers.

However, what happened before was completely different from the future he had envisioned.

What's going on?

Just as Echidna was confused, a strange voice suddenly came from the surrounding environment.

"Hey, Subaru! What are you doing?!"

"Aqua?"

A smile bloomed on Natsuki Subaru's face.

Echidna, however, was utterly shocked.

The City of Dreams is her exclusive domain, so why are there outside voices coming in?

Chapter 111: The Witch of Greed, Almost Died a Complete Dissipation

"How is that possible?! Dream City is a space isolated from the real world, how could any sound possibly come in?"

This was the most astonishing day in Echidna's more than four hundred years of life, as unexpected things began to happen one after another.

In fact, Echidna had been planning her resurrection for four hundred years.

Even Subaru Natsuki's appearance was part of Echidna's plan.

Although Echidna's soul is trapped in the City of Dreams, she has actually already placed a part of her soul in one of her former creations.

However, that creation was unable to break through the barrier of the Holy Domain.

Only when someone completes the Holy Domain Trial will this barrier be broken and the Holy Domain liberated.

All her plans were aimed at dismantling the barrier around the Sanctuary.

Including Subaru Natsuki.

According to the normal timeline, Subaru Natsuki should have fought against Petitchius, the Archbishop of Sloth, not long ago and successfully killed him.

As a candidate for the Sage, Subaru Natsuki should be able to successfully absorb the Sloth Factor.

Echidna granted those with the Witch Factor the right to enter and leave the Dream City.

However, at this moment, there was no trace of sloth on Natsuki Subaru's body.

And where exactly did that sound come from?!

Subaru! What are you doing?

Aqua's voice rang out again.

"Aqua, I'm here!"

Subaru Natsuki shouted loudly at the sky.

"I heard you! Are there other people over there?"

"Echidna, the Witch of Greed, is here too!"

As Echidna listened to Subaru Natsuki and Aqua's conversation from afar, her mind raced.

This person named Aqua is definitely not an ordinary being.

If it's just her—

"Is Echidna there? Is Echidna there? My name is Kazuma Sato, nice to meet you!"

Before Echidna could react, another voice she had never heard before rang out again.

"Another one?"

Echidna's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Aqua, can we go in?"

"It should work, I'll give it a try!"

Echidna overheard the entire conversation between Kazuma Sato and Aqua.

No, it's impossible, right?

How were these people able to force their way into Dream City?

No, absolutely impossible!

Echidna thought to herself.

The City of Dreams is a space she created. Even if these guys used some strange ability to transmit sound here, they absolutely cannot force their way in.

"Wow, there's a whole new world inside!"

The next instant, Kazuma Sato appeared in front of Echidna.

?

"Who are you? How did you get in?"

Echidna stared at Kazuma Sato in shock.

"Oh? You just walked in suddenly—you must be Echidna! Nice to meet you!"

Kazuma Sato's gaze swept over Echidna from head to toe in an instant.

In terms of appearance, she's totally fine!

Her figure is slightly inferior to Elsa and Priscilla, but it's still within an acceptable range!

Most importantly, she is not a little girl, not a loli!

She is indeed a stunning beauty who meets all aesthetic standards!

Echidna felt a little uneasy under Kazuma Sato's gaze, and could only manage an awkward smile.

At the same time, she could also sense the presence of witch genes within Kazuma Sato's body.

Greed.

Binge eating.

Has this guy solved the modern problem of gluttony and binge eating?

How did he do that?

No matter how you look at it, this person named Kazuma Sato is very ordinary.

Why did the Book of Wisdom not predict his existence?

Is everything that's happening now because of him?

Echidna is now certain that the current timeline is completely different from the future she once envisioned.

However, it was precisely because Kazuma Sato possessed the Witch Factor that he was qualified to enter the Dream City.

The Witch Factor was originally intended to be the key that Echidna used to invite Subaru Natsuki into the Dream Castle, since only he was originally capable of possessing the Witch Factor.

This also relieved Echidna a little; if Sato Kazuma possessed the Witch Factor, it would be reasonable for him to enter the Dream Castle.

But at the same time, another question also arose in Echidna's mind—

And what about that person named Aqua?

Does she also have witch genes?

"Kazuma! How did you suddenly appear?! I didn't even realize it!"

Just as Echidna was lost in thought, Aqua's voice rang out behind her again.

Echidna turned to look at the other person, and it was a completely unfamiliar face; she had never seen Aqua before.

Aqua doesn't have any witch factor aura, so how was she able to enter this space?

Who exactly are Kazuma Sato and Aqua?

Although Echidna remained in a state of shock, her incredibly strong curiosity was amplified even further.

She was eager to know everything about these two people.

Especially Aqua.

"How...how did you get in?"

Echidna looked at Aqua in disbelief and asked.

"How did you get in? You just walked right in?"

Aqua immediately found a chair and sat down, looking at Echidna.

"But I must say, the environment here feels somewhat similar to the realm of gods!"

"The realm of gods? What are you talking about?"

Echidna was completely bewildered, having no idea what Aqua was talking about.

This was the first time Echidna had felt so 'ignorant'.

However, Echidna knew that she had a way to satisfy her curiosity.

This is a space for souls only, so Echidna can read the memories of anyone who enters this realm.

If Echidna could access their memories, she would know everything about them.

Let's start with Aqua first—

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Suddenly, Echidna knelt on the ground, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Just like the Gluttony Bishop before him.

She clutched her head, curled up on the ground, as if an endless stream of information she couldn't comprehend had flooded into her mind in that dazed moment.

If it were an ordinary person, their brain would probably burn out like an overloaded electronic device.

Because of her powers, Echidna possesses an intellect that surpasses that of others—but even so, she is completely unable to digest or comprehend that kind of information.

Their souls will likely suffer severe damage.

"Hey, Aqua, what are you doing?"

Kazuma Sato immediately questioned him.

"I, I, I didn't do anything!"

Aqua's face also showed a look of someone who had caused trouble, and she quickly rushed over to release the healing.

Under Aqua's treatment, Echidna finally recovered from the excruciating pain she had just endured. Her forehead was covered in sweat, and her eyes were still filled with shock.

just.....

what happened?

Has my soul been severely damaged?

Echidna looked at Aqua in disbelief, who, seeing that she had recovered, sat back down in her chair.

This is the realm of the soul; no physical means can be effective here.

How did she manage to attack the soul directly?!

Then.....

Is it possible to fully repair it?
