Chapter 124 CH 111: THREE WITCHES ENTER A BAR

[Loki's Mansion]

Watching the prince kill Loki in cold blood and hearing those words, Drei couldn’t help but click his tongue in dismay.

His true body was still too far away from Lustburg and the current puppet he was using was just something weak and useless.

At this rate, the prince would escape, but this was too soon. It would throw a wrench in their plan.Updated chapters at novelhall.com

‘I need to keep him here longer.’

What Sol didn’t know was that he wasn’t the only one who wanted to stall for time. After all, if their true goal had simply been to wreak havoc, there were hundreds of ways they could have done it.

‘Still, to think that this prince had such an attribute. What the hell? Thankfully he doesn’t seem to have a great control over his own dimension. Otherwise, if he did a <<dimension overlap>>...’

Just thinking about this brought him chills even though his true body shouldn’t be able to feel such sensation anymore.

His eyes flickered as he began to go through all the way they could keep him here longer.

‘Well, I guess it’s time for everything to go boom!’

What none of them remarked, not even Sol, was how Sol's shadow flickered for a very short instant before coming back to normal.

[A bar in the Gorfard zone]

The bar was nothing particular and had nothing different from most rundown bars that could be found anywhere in the capital.

What’s more, because of the mass that was held at the plaza, it was nearly empty.

The only presence in this bar was a girl in red and a crow.

Suddenly, the crow’s eyes changed and the number 3 appeared deep in its pupil. “Kali, the situation changed. The prince might be able to escape sooner than we thought. I will try to buy as much time as possible, but I need you to increase the lure.”

Looking quietly at the crow, she understood that this was the last step before everything went to shit.

“I told you that I will not hurt any civilians. We are clear, right?”

“Do not worry. The zone is practically empty, go wild.”

“I see.”

Saying so, she stood from her chair and took her large pointed hat before putting it on her head.

As she stretched her hand in front of her, four large magic circles immediately formed above her in a circular formation before fusing into one.

At the same time, another magic circle appeared next to her before taking the shape of a circular shield.

Her pupils changed into a full black spade and her power became so immense that the bar and all the surrounding immediately began to tremble.

The power was so great that it could already be felt a few kilometers away from her position.

Witchcraft was the power born from the knowledge of the world. In order to be activated, neither words nor gestures were necessary. But because of the need to focus, when creating a spell, all witches would always associate the activation with one keyword or one special movement.

For Kali, her keyword was simple. She just needed one word, and everything around her would be erased and that word was,

<<Explosion.>>

This happened in an instant.

Buildings, roads, trees, even the air itself. Absolutely nothing was spared.

The blast itself covered a three kilometers radius, shining like a star of death and leaving only destruction in its wake.

When she got back her bearings, it seemed that she was in the wilderness.

“Where are we?”

“This is the mountain range near Greed Dike.”

Kali couldn’t help but groan at how fucking crazy this space magic bullshit was. They were basically two thousand kilometers away from Lustburg.

Medea meanwhile sighed, “Kali, you went too far. I think it’s time to remind you why we are the big sisters.”

Freya grinned as she continued, “What Medea is saying, in short, is that we are going to spank you until your ass becomes as red as your dress!”

[Barrack of the black knight]

Sitting proudly on a horse was an old man whose face showed the years of fighting he went through.

The horse on which he sat had two horns on its front and razor-sharp teeth as well as red eyes. Its black mane fluttered beautifully in the air.

Behind him, a row of black knights in full armor sat at full attention on their horses.

Normally, using a horse in the city for a fight would have been the most stupid move possible, but that was only so for normal horses.

One of the knights, after watching the big explosion then the rewind far in the horizon gulped,

“General Gerald, what are your orders?”

Sighing, Gerald took his helmet from under his arms and said with sadness, “My brother, the fake queen and the supreme daughter conspired to usurp the throne. Loyal soldiers of Lustburg can you accept this!?”

His last words were practically shouted, but the content of his words sent all of them into confusion.

The fifty of them were old but powerful knights who had given up the battlefield and became instructors for the future generation.

Even so, they were still a force to be reckoned with and their influence in the army was no joke. What’s more, the title of black knights meant they stood at the summit in terms of power, skills, and experience in the royal army.

But the most important was that they had followed Gerald on the battlefield for decades and trusted him even more than they would trust their own family.

“Knights of Lustburg, My dear old friends. We must bring down the traitors at all cost. Are you willing to raise your spears and stand behind me!?”

“Yes!”

“Then, it’s time to bring down the traitors.”

Turning around, he put back his helmet, thereby hiding all his feelings of guilt.

[Castitas’s church]

In the basement of the church, standing in full ritual clothes, Camelia was kneeling in the center of the magic circle she had drawn in advance for this very moment.

She had felt it the moment the blast of destruction reduced one-tenth of the capital to nothing.

She could have stopped it, or at least greatly reduced the power of the blast, but she didn’t act. They had already decided what to do to stop Kali if she appeared.

At the end of the day, even though they had shifted their main target to the Wings of Freedom, Camelia had never forgotten that this plan had been initially created to catch the traitors — all the traitors.

The chaos that was about to spread was the best occasion for all those with evil intentions to manifest themselves.

What’s more, she could feel it. The wings of freedom had yet to show all their cards.

She needed to know all her targets and distinguish the enemies from the friends to assure the maximum effect.

That’s why she was waiting.

Like a spider, she was slowly waiting for the prey to get stuck in her webs.

Then...She would devour them all.
