Although Merlin's last words said that he did not like a grand funeral, as soon as the news spread, everyone would come to express their condolences for the great wizard's departure from the bottom of their hearts.
"…Dust to dust, earth to earth, the holy soul has been called by the Lord, and has stopped his busy life on earth and returned to the Father's arms. His holy body will eventually be immortal, and his soul in heaven will eventually be happy and satisfied. His relatives, friends, brothers and sisters in the Lord will bid him farewell here. Rest in peace, Merlin!"
At the funeral ceremony, upon hearing of Merlin's death, the cardinal specially sent by the church personally presided over Merlin's funeral. According to Merlin's will, he had chosen a place for himself to be buried after his death.
Merlin was buried on an ordinary hillside, surrounded by forests and with green grass on the hillside in the middle. The priests of the church said that this was indeed a good place for the soul to rest in peace.
King Andrew was even willing to bury Merlin in the family tomb. Ecclesia burst into tears. King Andrew knew that in the heart of his daughter Ecclesia, she always regarded Merlin, who had watched her grow up, as a family member.
Unfortunately, Merlin never married.
He never married and had no direct heirs, but King Andrew was certain that Merlin's name would be remembered by all.
There was no conspiracy involved in Merlin's death. Doctors confirmed that Merlin died of natural causes. Although Ecclesia's power extended Merlin's life, he was still a mortal after all, and his body functions had reached their limits.
The hillside was crowded with citizens of the Kingdom of Pilsen. People were crying, but they all believed that the great wizard Merlin died happily and peacefully.
King Andrew, Ecclesia and Slud could all attest to this, Merlin's death was painless, he seemed to have fallen asleep, said goodnight to everyone who loved him, and then fell into a long sleep, never to wake up again.
King Andrew ordered a tomb to be built for Merlin, and according to Merlin's request, the tomb maintained a simple and frugal style.
only……
"It's a pity that person didn't come..."
After Merlin was buried, the cardinal allowed all the attendees of the funeral to observe a moment of silence, and Andrew expressed his feelings at this time.
"Father? Who are you waiting for?"
"I'm not waiting...Sir Merlin, you should be waiting for someone."
King Andrew responded to Ecclesia's doubts with a sigh. He lent his majestic body to his daughter and let her wet his luxurious clothes with her tears.
Many people have been discussing why Merlin chose to remain single for his entire life. Some say that Merlin, who had studied magic, would not look down on ordinary women. Others say that Merlin had a big heart and was so concerned about people's happiness that he neglected his own life.
But King Andrew knew very well that Merlin had someone he loved, but his love was destined to be unrequited.
Merlin grows older with the years, but the one he loves remains young.
A guard in charge of maintaining public order came up to Slude and said a few words to her. Merlin's will hoped that Slude would inherit the position of chief magician of the kingdom's court. Now that Merlin's soul has passed away, Slude has become one of the most influential people in the Kingdom of Pilsen.
Slude wiped away her tears. Now that her master was gone, she had to be strong.
"I understand... I will report this to His Majesty the King."
Slud came to King Andrew.
"Your Majesty, there is a magician outside who wants to see you."
"Magician? Could it be...?"
Slude nodded slightly and said the magician's name.
King Andrew ordered his guards to clear a path to allow the visiting wizard to approach Merlin's tomb.
Although she didn't get to see Merlin for the last time before his death, she still came after all.
In other words, when the witch met Merlin five months ago, she had already predicted Merlin's longevity.
People were talking about the visiting wizard girl. They had never seen this person before. The wand in the girl's hand was very strange, with a broom at the end. Not many people knew that the person who taught Merlin magic was a witch. People immersed in sadness ignored the face of the girl under the wizard hat.
The witch walked to the grave, where Merlin's name was engraved, along with an epitaph dedicated to him.
The witch looked the same as when they first met, neither her appearance nor her attire had changed, but the stupid disciple she had saved was no longer in this world.
The witch, who did not shed tears, stretched out her white palm and used the lines on her fingertips to feel the name engraved on the tombstone.
However, a light suddenly burst out from the base of the tombstone.
"That is--"
Slude exclaimed. Those were the alchemical materials she had found according to Merlin's request during the last moments of her master's life.
——In an instant.
The whole hillside was covered with flowers.
The irises blooming all over the mountains are the witch's favorite bouquet.
The witch stood there in a daze. This did not belong to any sequence of magic, and the only answer was that someone had researched the magic of flowers and gave it to someone.
It was not until then that people remembered the title of the chief magician of the court.
The flower magician.
No one knows why Merlin calls himself this.
Although there is a title called magic, he insists on calling himself a magician, just like a magician. Does this title have any special meaning to Merlin?
At this moment, everyone is embraced by the fragrant flowers.
The witch clustered in the center of the irises is like a princess, and these irises will never wither.
——I have already thought of a name for you to use when you graduate from here on out.
——The name given by the teacher? I am all ears.
——The Flower Magician.
——No! It sounds like a girl!
The magician who made the flowers bloom has a wish.
If possible, I hope that many years from now, when someone mentions the Flower Magician, a girl can proudly say:
That person is my disciple.
"...Goodbye, my stupid disciple."
Your whole life.
My farewell.
79 [You are the immortal pure white witch]
"Good morning sir."
A farmer who was working in the field heard the calls from behind and wiped the sweat from his head with the towel around his neck.
"what's up?"
When he turned around, he found that it was a girl dressed as a magician. The farmer's attitude immediately became cautious. Magicians are all important people with noble status. Although they are not nobles, there are many arrogant people among magicians who like to bully people who have no magical talent.
However, the magician girl in front of him didn't seem to be such a person. She spoke very politely, like a well-educated lady.
"I want to ask for directions."
"Oh... Master Magician, please speak."
"If we follow this road, it's the way to Neuss, right?"
"No, Noyes!?"
The farmer was so frightened that he screamed like a lady who had seen a mouse.
"Master Magician! Are you going to that kind of place?"
"That kind of place...? No, you misunderstood. I went there to destroy Noyes."
The so-called Neuss is well-known within a radius of dozens of miles. Neuss was originally an abandoned castle, and later it was occupied by several groups of bandits as a base. One day, a group of unknown people destroyed the bandits. At first, people thought they were righteous men or mercenaries from somewhere, but then things became strange.
That group of people claimed to be followers of the witch. The religious beliefs on this continent are extremely complicated. For example, the Kingdom of Radboyle believes in their native god of agriculture, Yum Kax, and some people believe in the sleeping god of the underworld. Therefore, it is not surprising that some people believe in the witch of immortality and immortality.
However, their belief was so fanatical that they did not even dare to call the witch by her name, but referred to her as "Brother Jie", a strange honorific. People called them the Witch Cult, and the Witch Cult always maintained an extreme enthusiasm for missionary work.
"You may not know that there were righteous magicians and knights who tried to destroy Noyce and bring peace to the world, but, but they all..."
The farmer's voice was choked with sobs, and the witch's face darkened.
"I will avenge the fallen warriors."
“They are not dead.”
"Why are you crying if you're not dead?"
"But their souls have been sold to the Witch Cult. They all put on women's clothes and shouted that they were willing to die for the Witch. The Witch Cult has developed a magic potion that can change men's bones, skin, and voices, making men become like beautiful girls... The most terrifying thing is that there are female believers in the Witch Cult. Now when you go to Neuss, you can see beautiful girls everywhere, but you can't tell which one is a man and which one is a woman..."
The witch's mouth twitched. She was a little embarrassed to describe the degree of perversion of the witch cult.
"Didn't the captured magicians and knights resist?"
"We asked them where their chivalry was, and they loudly refuted us, saying that wearing women's clothes was something that only men could do, so having the courage to try on women's clothes was the true chivalry."
"……………………"
The witch decided to give up thinking.
"I'm a girl, I won't be seduced by them."
"The women in the Witch Cult will also be corrupted. They made a deal with the succubus and extracted the succubus' genes to develop a virus. This virus can turn all creatures in the world into beautiful girls, but the virus is still under research. As for why they have such a ridiculous idea, it is said that the witch they believe in once said that she hopes to have sex with more beautiful girls..."
"I didn't...wait, maybe I actually said that? Anyway, that's not okay."
The witch understands this truth. She is not worried that this beautiful girl virus can create a being that is superior to her. However, if everyone becomes beautiful girls, it will be a problem how humans will reproduce. She does not want to become the sinner for the extinction of mankind.
"Why didn't you stop them?"
"Actually, if you think about it carefully, it's not bad to be a pretty girl..."
"what?"
"Ahem, I mean, how can peasants like us be their opponents? Even many knights who went to attack them never returned."
"...It seems that it is time for me to enforce justice. Let me confirm again, is Noyce heading in this direction?"
After receiving a positive answer, the witch - to be more precise, the "black" witch Angelica of the Witch Cult, fiercely sought justice for her reputation.
Before setting out again to look for the descendants of other heroes, Angelica felt it necessary to deal with the Witch Cult. To be honest, when she last traveled, there was no organization like the Witch Cult that damaged the reputation of "black" witches. The reputation of witches is already very delicate, and it is rare for a "black" witch to have a relatively good reputation. Wouldn't it be...
Doesn't this mean that I won't be able to use my name to flirt with girls in the future?
The more Angelica thought about it, the angrier she got. There was no doubt that Coppelia could be the only one who created the Witch Cult. There were people who liked Angelica everywhere, but Coppelia was the most cruel and cruel one.
Angelica walked all the way to the front gate of Neuss Castle. Unexpectedly, she encountered no obstacles on the way. Rather, it was because of the witch's bad reputation that even children dared not cry when they heard of her. Along the way, not to mention people, even a mouse was not seen.
There seemed to be some kind of event being held at the main gate of Neuss Castle. Angelica approached the castle with a murderous look on her face, and someone immediately approached her enthusiastically.
The one who warmly welcomed Angelica was a beautiful girl in a JK uniform... Yes, a JK uniform, a costume that would never appear in the medieval sword and magic world.
The girls in front of Noyes's gate were dressed in all kinds of clothes, such as schoolgirls, investigators, etc. For a moment, the angry Angelica even had the illusion of "Huh? Am I in heaven?"
However, Angelica remembered the farmer's advice: every man who went to Neuss eventually wore women's clothes and became a beautiful girl. Angelica had a full understanding of magic, and she could say with certainty that even if she could change bones and voices, there were things that could not be changed.
Therefore, looking at the beautiful girls who seemed like girls from heaven, Angelica was unable to confirm who was the real girl for a moment, including the girl in JK uniform in front of her. Looking closely, she had no Adam's apple and her skin was fair and attractive, but was there really no sinful beast hidden under her pleated skirt?
The girl in JK uniform enthusiastically handed Angelica a copy of "Witch's Quotes" and tried to sell it to her.
"Would you like to see our latest masterpiece, the life-size pillow?"
"A body pillow...?"
The girl in the JK uniform mistakenly thought Angelica was interested and quickly took out her (probably her) masterpiece from the stall.
80 The plan to destroy the Witch Cult was made by the Witch
“Clang clang clang~Brother Jie’s life-size pillow! Enjoy a 20% discount if you buy it now!”
Life-size pillows were a product Angelica would often buy before she traveled through time. Generally, both sides of the pillowcases would have beautiful life-size illustrations of people. It wasn't until one day when Angelica's pillowcase was secretly washed by her family and hung on the balcony that she changed her habit of buying life-size pillows.
As for the pillow made by the girl in the JK uniform... How should I put it? Angelica didn't know whether she should thank the artist for at least drawing pantyhose on her...
The most critical part is the chest area. Angelica finally understood why the girl in JK uniform called herself her latest masterpiece, because the chest area was filled with materials like the footrests of a mouse pad. Angelica had no idea whether it was rubber or some other material. But with the shaking frequency of the pillow in the girl's hand, it was certain that it was much more elastic than it appeared on the surface.
"Are you kidding me? They're bigger than my head! And you can tell they're fake breasts. How can they be sold?"
"But this is the only one left..."
The expression of the girl in JK uniform gradually became serious.
"I see. It seems that you haven't felt the beauty of Jie. I suggest you read "Witch's Quotes" overnight and experience Jie's earnest teachings..."
