Miss Witch, please don't leave your fragrance everywhere

The dejected mercenaries admitted that if the lich was going to kill them, no one would be able to come back alive. To be honest, they didn't even get to see the lich in person before they were defeated by the magic flying everywhere.

Since there were no clear deaths, and the lich had never shown any ill will towards the town, over time, the commission to defeat the lich was abandoned. Over the past few decades, there have been adventurers who have tried to defeat the lich, but none of them have achieved any results, and naturally, no deaths have occurred during this period.

The head of the Adventurer's Association hurried to the hall with a magic item. When he heard that someone insisted on going alone to defeat the lich that had troubled Galdelegen for decades, he thought it was the chief magician of the court of some kingdom who came to visit, but he didn't expect it to be a young girl.

"I am the head of the Galdregan Adventurer's Guild... Do you want to take on the commission to defeat the lich in the deep forest alone?"

"That's right, bring the magic crystal ball over here, I guess you are going to test my magic power.

84 The Witch Lady and the Lich

The magic crystal ball is a magic item used to test the sequence that magic power can reach. Each magic school has one. Simply put, put your hand on it and inject magic power, and nine different colors will appear according to the sequence from high to low.

They are: white, gray, black, blue, red, gold, cyan, orange, and purple, corresponding to Sequence 1 to Sequence 9. Interestingly, they correspond to the colors that symbolize all Beyonders.

But Angelica doesn't like the magic crystal ball for a simple reason - why should the "white" symbolized by Coppelia be above the "black" symbolized by me! No matter from which angle you look at it, "black" should be ranked first!

Angelica placed her right hand on the magic crystal ball and injected magic power into it. The magic crystal ball immediately emitted a white light, indicating that Angelica had reached the level of Sequence One.

The person in charge and the receptionist were startled. Angelica made a gesture to silence them, indicating that they should keep quiet.

"With this outfit... could it be that you are...?"

"Well, anyway, you can trust me with your commission."

"understood."

The person in charge no longer had any doubts. Looking at Angelica's attire and the evidence of Sequence One, she should be a Beyonder who had reached eternity. Fortunately, the Earldom of Galdelegen itself did not reject witches.

"I have two conditions. The first is that I hope the compensation will be increased a little bit."

"As long as you can successfully defeat the lich, we are willing to pay you an additional reward."

"Secondly, since I have accepted the commission, I hope that you will not issue this commission to subdue the lich to other people before I come back, and do not send anyone to the deep forest to confirm the situation."

The person in charge agreed immediately. It was a rare opportunity that a Sequence One Beyonder was willing to defeat the Lich.

Some people may wonder why the lich insists on attacking since it has not harmed anyone. The reason is simple: the lich will lose its mind sooner or later, but no one can tell when it will lose its mind and completely degenerate into a crazy monster.

The lich in the deep forest possesses powerful magical powers, which are almost equivalent to a time bomb next to the pillow. It must be dismantled before people can feel completely at ease.

"Well, Little Magician... no, Master Magician, I am here to provide you with the intelligence we have collected over the years. It may be helpful to you."

"No need. I can't lose."

"But it's better to be careful... Adventurers who have participated in the expedition before said that the lich seems to have a large number of familiars under his control."

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

"When they encountered a magic attack in the deep forest, multiple magics flew out from different angles. Afterwards, they analyzed the time of magic release and its magic sequence and found that it was impossible for the magic to be cast by the same target. The chanting time could not meet the minimum interval. Therefore, the lich in the deep forest may control a large number of familiars to fight in groups. I hope the magician must be careful."

Angelica listened to the advice of the person in charge and headed for the deep forest where the lich lived.

The deeper into the forest, the more frequent and fiercer the magical devices on the road became. However, none of them meant to take people's lives. They just hoped that outsiders would give up. However, this level of threat naturally had no effect on the witch.

The witch lady was in a picnic mood, humming a little tune as she walked towards the deepest part of the forest.

"——Enough is enough."

Suddenly, a voice was heard from the deep forest. It was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman, nor could it be determined from which direction the voice came.

Angelica stopped walking. The voice was full of warning.

"We should keep our distance from each other."

"This tone... um, doesn't sound like him? To be honest, I've forgotten what his tone was like - but you're not Albert, are you?"

"?!"

When Angelica said the name Albert, the other party was obviously briefly flustered, as if wondering why Angelica knew this name.

Albert was none other than the old friend Angelica had come to Gardelegen to visit. He was also the name of the lich who lived in the deep forest, or rather, his name when he was still a human. After not seeing each other for many years, Angelica could no longer remember Albert's tone and habits. However, Angelica's dress had not changed for decades. If the other person was Albert, he should be able to recognize Angelica at once.

"…No one is welcome here, please go back."

"No matter how you think about it, I am an acquaintance of Albert's. Normally, shouldn't you let down your guard and welcome me to meet Albert?"

The other party fell into a temporary silence, probably thinking about who Angelica was. The lich Albert had lived for nearly a hundred years, so how could he have such a young acquaintance.

Angelica didn't have much patience, and she prepared to continue exploring the deep forest without thinking.

As if judging Angelica's behavior as an intruder, Angelica sensed magic being activated on the left.

Immediately afterwards, a dark purple pungent gas quickly spread in the air of the deep forest, enveloping Angelica.

"Really... I don't know who you are to Albert, but didn't Albert teach you how to entertain guests?"

If nothing unexpected happened, they should be the familiars of the lich that the head of the Adventurer's Association mentioned. The truth of "you" exposed by Angelica did not shake the people hiding in the dark. Rather, they were more surprised that Angelica stood in the poisonous fog with ease.

"Scorpius's Sequence 6 Corruption Mist can change its effects according to the needs of the user. The Corruption Mist you are releasing now is set to be a poisonous mist that can make people faint."

Angelica exposed the truth about the dark purple body. It seemed that the people from the Adventurer's Association were right. They would not make killing the invaders their first goal. They just wanted to knock Angelica unconscious and then send her out of the forest.

Until now, they still didn't understand how Angelica was immune to the fainting effect of the corrupt mist. Angelica showed a playful smile, like a bad kid planning a prank.

"I have received a commission from the Adventurer's Guild in Gardelegen. The commission wants me to defeat the lich in the deep forest, so you can be more serious."

【Witch TIPS】

In name, all Beyonders will not age or die, but Black is the only one who is truly immortal. For example, Orange's immortality can only be achieved by killing and taking the lives of others. When the lives collected by Orange are exhausted, she will lose her eternity.

85 Miss Witch is fussy

There was a commotion in the deep forest, and Angelica showed clear hostility. Although it seemed that she was acting on impulse, she was actually immune to the corrupt mist, which was enough to prove that she was an opponent that should not be underestimated.

Subsequent magical attacks followed one after another. Countless chains suddenly popped out from the ground under Angelica's feet, wrapping around Angelica's fragile body with terrifying power. In an instant, Angelica's delicate body was like a mummy with chains.

Andromeda's sequence six iron chain bondage is a commonly used confinement magic by magicians. The chains have a hardness that is inconsistent with their fragile appearance at first glance. Normal struggles cannot free them. If they are confined for too long, they will also have the effect of absorbing magic power.

Immediately afterwards, the ground where Angelica was standing began to become soft, controlled by a strange magical force. Angelica exclaimed in what seemed to be approval: This is Sequence 3 magic.

Spades sequence three: moving mountains and filling the sea.

To summarize the magical effect of moving mountains and filling the sea in one sentence, it can be explained as the power of controlling sand. Magic not only includes simple killing magic, but also magic that exerts special effects on itself. The so-called moving mountains and filling the sea is based on the principle of injecting magic power into the land, and then precisely controlling the sand through the form of magic attachment.

The ground beneath Angelica's feet split apart, and a hole appeared out of nowhere. Angelica, who was bound by chains, was buried directly in the ground.

"……Did you make it?"

"She's quiet in there."

"Is she really dead? She clearly told us not to kill anyone."

"I'll let her out once she loses consciousness... Yeah?!"

Several voices in the deep forest were communicating, and suddenly a scream was heard from somewhere. The leisurely witch appeared again and grabbed the woman hiding in the dark from the illusion that concealed her figure.

The woman was approximately thirty years old, with short fiery red hair and distinctive freckles. She was a magician who had reached Sequence Three.

“How, how could this happen?!”

The red-haired woman was stunned. Angelica should be trapped in the dungeon she made of sand. Since the red-haired woman used magic to precisely control the sand, she should be able to sense any resistance from Angelica.

"Emily!"

The red-haired woman seemed to be named Emily, and her accomplices panicked when they found that Emily was captured. But before they could decide how to rescue Emily, another person was captured by the witch and taken to a clearing in the forest.

Just like the wolf in the fairy tale who caught the piglets hiding in the house one by one, the witch captured the magicians hiding in the forest one by one. They were not the familiars as rumored, but a group of magicians who hid their bodies through illusion.

However, the witch obviously did not have the patience of the Big Bad Wolf in the fairy tale. After capturing five people, she lost interest in continuing to play and pulled out all the remaining magicians who were hiding with illusions in one breath.

The magician group consists of thirteen people, including men and women, young and old, with varying levels of magic skills, but the lowest level is a magician who can reach the general national certification of Sequence 6. In the human world, Sequence 9 magic is a realm that many people can reach, and the pastors and priests in the village can master Sequence 8 magic. People who control Sequence 7 magic are usually magic apprentices who specialize in magic.

The minimum standard for a successful magician is to be able to use sequence six magic. Magic that is considered by the public to be very characteristic of magicians, such as levitation and fireball, all belong to this sequence.

Angelica retaliated in kind, restraining everyone with iron chains.

"This magical power... who are you?"

Iron chain restraints are not magic that works on groups. Angelica has used it thirteen times in a row, and there is no sign of the magic power running out. Moreover, the strength of the chains is far beyond the limit of what they can achieve.

"Angelica, the genius and beautiful magician. Strange, Albert never mentioned me to you? Or do you not know Albert and I found the wrong place?"

"…We don't know who Albert is."

The leading man had a cold face. He was also a magician who used illusion to help everyone hide their bodies.

"Well, it seems that I went a little too far on a whim. Although I did accept the commission, I am an old friend of Albert, you know?"

The magicians didn't believe it at all. They refused to cooperate with Angelica and refused to reveal any information to her. Angelica couldn't help but feel distressed. She actually had a way. The magic of taking out people's memories did exist, but doing so would undoubtedly lead to their hostility. Angelica couldn't figure out what the relationship between these magicians and the lich Albert was, but Angelica was not a soft persimmon that could be manipulated by anyone. When she had no other choice, she didn't mind taking some special measures.

Just when the situation was at a stalemate, a voice was heard from the deepest part of the forest.

"She is not a bad person. Bring her to see me. Edward."

"Really, really?"

"I should have told you earlier. She is an old friend of mine."

The man in the lead was named Edward, and the voice giving orders from the deepest part was none other than the lich Albert that Angelica was looking for.

Seeing Albert say this, Edward was still a little worried about Angelica, but his tone was much more tactful.

"I see... It seems like this is all a misunderstanding. Could you please let us go first? We promise not to attack you again."

"No. I must point out a serious mistake to you, and I will not release you unless you promise to correct it."

"mistake?"

"The way you use the iron chains is totally inappropriate!"

Angelica clearly adopted the tone of a strict teacher, expressing her disapproval of the way several magicians used iron chains to restrain people. Edward, Emily and others were completely intimidated by Angelica's aura.

"Please teach me...?"

Edward and Emily thought Angelica would have something profound to say, but who would have thought that Angelica asked a very strange question very seriously.

"You are restraining a beautiful girl! How can you be so gentle?"

"what?"

"Don't you realize that the way I use it is completely different from yours?"

Edward then realized that the chains on them were somewhat unique. The way the iron chains were bound was determined by the will of the user. When they had imprisoned Angelica before, they simply wrapped the chains around Angelica in circles.

On the other hand, Angelica used iron chains to restrain the magicians... How should I put it? Not only did it restrict their movements, but its form was also quite artistic.

86 Lich Father

The chains that bound the magicians' bodies were not random, but had a pattern that the magicians had never seen before: the chains slowly intertwined, forming countless diamonds on the torso. And looking at these diamonds, they looked like the patterns on the shell of a turtle.

"As long as you use my method to restrain a beautiful girl, you can give her a strong sense of humiliation and highlight her figure. It's much better than your iron chain restraint behind closed doors!"

"Wait, wait a minute, I don't understand what you are talking about. I have no interest in humiliating my enemies. Iron Chain Binding is just a confinement magic."

"That's true, but when using it on a beautiful girl, it must give her a strong sense of humiliation, and make her feel like she's about to be humiliated!"

"No... How could there be any expectation? Don't you think so, Emily?"

“………………Yes, yes. No one would expect to be restricted in their movements and be bullied by others.”

"Your silence is quite suspicious, isn't it?!"

Angelica nodded with satisfaction at Emily's reaction. It was a good lesson for her.

That's right, restraining a beautiful girl is a science! An art! How can you just do it perfunctorily? Angelica must correct their wrong views.

Angelica was full of expectations when she found out that they used iron chains to restrain her, but she ended up finding out that they just wrapped her up like a mummy.

It's really unreasonable! At the very least, she should be tied up with iron chains to reveal her plump figure hidden under the magic robe!

Although Edward thought Angelica's protest was ridiculous, Angelica completely disagreed with any concessions. Edward and a group of magicians were forced to sell their souls and agreed to change the use of iron chains to Angelica's style.

After being liberated, the magician team abided by the agreement and no longer had any hostile behavior towards Angelica.

"But we are really confused...how did you do it?"
