104 - - The Lord of the Seventh Episode "The Witch of the Giant Tower"

Lord of the Witches of the Great Tower?

Princess Lilith gets out of bed so as not to be rude and faces the "Witch of the Gigantic Tower" who visited her unannounced at midnight.

The "Witch of the Gigantic Tower," who stubbornly did not take off her robe during the daytime meeting and dinner, reveals her true face.

Her blonde hair is tied in two buns, and her large eyes are framed by long lashes. She had seen many different kinds of beautiful women and girls inside the "Giant Tower," but her face was even more well-developed and styled.

The "Witch of the Gigantic Tower" answers with a smile on her face.

'Yes, the god I serve--the Light God (Shin-sama) wishes to meet Lilith-sama in person. He wants to meet with you unofficially and in secret, so I have made a rude visit to see you at night. I have already taken steps to ensure that the squires, who are sleeping in the next room, will not notice, so you will be able to join us without concern.

Unofficial?　If this is top secret, does that mean my brother will not be attending?"

Yes, only Lilith.

Why do you want to meet informally and secretly with only yourself?

Lilith assumes a quick reason in her mind.

(Hostages?　Are they trying to incorporate me because I am easier to move politically?　(Or to brainwash them with magic?)

The Witch of the Giant Tower," Ellie smiles fondly.

As if seeing through her heart, she explains the reason to dispel her fears.

She explains the reason for her concern. I have no intention to harm Lilith-sama. God of Light just wants to say thank you to Lilith-sama.

"Thank you, sir?"

This reason confused Lilith even more.

The "Witch of the Giant Tower" created the Giant Tower, brought down the Elven Queen Nation, and almost took it under her control. She wants to thank the one who made her so powerful and subordinates her.

I had no recollection of this, and it would have been more convincing if she had said that she was summoned to brainwash Lilith herself.

The "Witch of the Giant Tower" continues with a fond smile.

I can understand your confusion and wonder. But what I have just told you is the truth. The Yume-sama whom Lilith-sama saved, she is the sister of my Lord, the Goddess of Light. I just want to thank you for that."

"Yume's brother ......?"

Yes, sir. There were some circumstances that caused the Light God (Shin-sama) to lose track of his sister, Yume-sama, and his older brother, and he has been searching for them for a long time. In the midst of all this, he discovered that Lilith-sama had healed Yume-sama's wounds and was protecting her.

(Oh, sure, Yume told me that he had two older brothers, and when the village was attacked, the oldest brother pulled him by the arm and ran away. I heard that the second brother left the village before that and I never saw him again. ......)

I had no idea that this second brother was the master of the "Witch of the Giant Tower". ......

(But Yume's parents both came from poor farmers, and her second brother should be the same, right?　How did you get someone as powerful as the "Witch of the Gigantic Tower" under your command?)

The more Lilith learns about the reason why he wants to see her, the more new questions spring up in her mind.

The Witch of the Gigantic Tower," Ellie continued, not caring what was on her mind.

The Light Goddess invited Lilith and her friends to see for themselves if the apprentice maid working in the castle whom they had heard about was in fact the real Yume-sama.

!　Oh, I didn't know that. ......"

I know it's rude of me, but please forgive me. The light God (Shin-sama) confirmed that it was Yume-sama herself, thanks to her direct confirmation. By replacing him with an imposter, we were able to safely protect Yume-sama and place him under our custody.

Wait a minute!　An impostor?　Is the yume by my side now an imposter?

Yes, sir. Please forgive us for replacing him with an impostor without permission, considering our circumstances.

I'm not sure how ...... that's possible. Since when?　Because Yume reacted as usual, and I didn't feel any different at all. ......

It's natural that you can't see through it because it's designed that way. So please don't be too discouraged.

It's made that way"-that is, if they wanted to, they could create and replace not only Lilith but also her brother and even her father's imposters on the side of the "Witch of the Tower.

(How much power do the witches in front of us have? !)

Lilith could not help but be astonished and shudder.

At the same time, she did not forget to calculate, 'If we use this power well, we can change the future of our race (humans).

This attitude was typical of Lilith, who has a sense of justice and duty as royalty.

The "Witch of the Giant Tower" nudged Lilith, who had been deep in thought.

You understand the reason, don't you?　It would be impolite to keep the Lord of Light waiting any longer. Shall we move on?

Wait, wait, wait!　I understand that it's unofficial and top secret, but it's indeed ...... to head out in your nightgown."

Lilith hugs herself with a face so red you can see it even in the dark.

She is 15 years old, a maiden even a flower is ashamed of.

As one would expect, she is not comfortable meeting men in her nightgown.

Ellie lowers her eyebrows apologetically.

You are right," she says. I'm sorry I didn't recognize you. Please wait a moment.

What?

She snaps her fingers.

In an instant, Lilith's nightgown is transformed into a high-end dress that she herself could never match, even with all of her own clothes.

The jewelry is used in moderation without being obnoxious, and the design is so advanced that if she were to go out socially in this dress and jewelry, she would attract the attention of every man and woman in the room.

Ellie smiles with satisfaction and nods again.

'This won't be a problem, will it?

Ha, yes, no problem. ......

Lilith was already too surprised to refuse.

Ellie's smile deepens and she extends her hand.

'Well, let's head on down to the God of Light (Shinsama). Lilith-sama, give me your hand.

I do as I am told and extend my hand.

Ellie squeezed Lilith's hand and pulled out a card.

It says, "Transition, release.

The figures of Ellie and Lilith disappear from the second floor guest room of the "Giant Tower".
