Chapter 51 Isn’t that cheating?

The stars are shining brightly.

Aleister sat on the stone steps, looking at the sky with cold eyes. The stars representing the Queen of Magic gradually covered Hecate's stars.

At this point, Hecate's fate is invisible.

"If you only look at talent and ability, you should have a chance of becoming a devil." A charming voice came.

Aleister glanced at the place where the sound was coming from, and saw the Bloody Countess coming to his side, sitting down with her skirt in her hands, and asking curiously.

"Why do you still maintain your human identity?"

"..."

Aleister was silent for a moment and replied: "Even if all the rituals calculated by Hecate go well, she may not be able to become a witch."

"Why?" The bloody countess showed a curious look. She had known Aleister for a while. She was once known as the most genius magician and committed all kinds of unforgivable crimes.

Everyone thought that he would become a demon sooner or later, but he suddenly disappeared and reappeared as a follower of the Witch of Death.

"..."

Aleister was silent for a moment, then shook his head. He had a lot of ideas and speculations. For example, if he wanted to escape from the human realm, he would have to completely subvert himself. It is also possible that his "ability" was not enough to support him. Get out of the human realm.

Of course, it is also possible that he is not talented enough.

There are many kinds of speculations, but none of them are enough to satisfy him. Whether it is mentality, ability, or talent, he thinks that he is not bad. Compared with the witches and demons born in the past, he is not inferior at all.

But there is no way to escape from the human realm.

He tried several times but failed due to serious injuries, which also prompted him to join the Order of Death, hoping to understand why he could not escape from the human realm by contacting the Death Witch.

"Don't you know why?" The bloody countess nodded slightly and followed Aleister's gaze, only to see a bright meteor falling from the sky.

That's the shooting star that symbolizes Hecate, no...maybe the Queen of Magic.

But if it is Hecate's meteor, it means that Hecate has either become a witch or... died.

There is no second possibility.

Aleister stood up and walked towards the large library. He wanted to witness the result, whether Hecate had escaped from the human realm.

If successful, then maybe he would have a chance to learn the truth.

……

...

In the big library.

The scene suddenly changed, and Hecate suddenly appeared in front of everyone, with the corpse of the Queen of Magic lying beside her.

But what was unexpected was that Hecate didn't have any joy on her face, her brows were furrowed tightly, as if she had been... shocked.

"Did you fail to become a witch?" Granny Sethe said regretfully, as if she was completely expected, and she didn't take Hecate's failure to heart very much.

There are many amazing and talented people in this world, but not all of them have the ability to escape from the human realm.

What special factors determine the key?

"I thought I would have a chance to see the birth of a witch." Martha also sighed in disappointment, but she was also glad that Hecate did not become a witch.

After all, witches are often extremely dangerous beings.

"It doesn't matter if you fail, teacher." Ximu stood up and came to Hecate's side to comfort him, and then Hecate flicked her forehead with her finger.

Then, she answered in the confused eyes of her apprentice.

"There is no failure in being a teacher."

"Then why aren't you happy, teacher?" Ximu asked in confusion. Granny Sethe and Martha who were nearby heard this and also cast puzzled glances.

Although becoming a witch makes the church and the gods hostile, it also represents a power that transcends the human realm.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that he is a different kind of god.

"It's only when you understand your destiny that you become troubled." Hecate said, but there was no in-depth explanation.

She glanced at Martha beside her, as if she had a thorough understanding of Martha, and then quickly withdrew her gaze.

"Apprentice, summon the Witch of Death."

"Okay." Ximu nodded, and under the gaze of everyone, he drew a magic circle with the blood of the Queen of Magic, and then began to recite the spell to summon the Witch of Death.

"There is a gap between life and death, which is deeper than death. The queen of the kingdom of death, the owner of absolute silence..."

The spell reverberated, the body of the Magic Queen was swallowed by the blue will-o'-wisp, and the Death Witch appeared.

"Ah~ my kind really appears." She glanced at Hecate and admitted that she was also a witch.

Although she is very immature, she is indeed a witch.

"Human, I can give you a reward, in addition to further power of death." She withdrew her gaze and looked at Ximu who summoned her.

With everything Ximu has done now, even if he is granted a more profound death, there will be no problem at all.

However, in Xie Mu's current state, as long as he has a deeper death, he will probably die suddenly due to excessive use of the power of death in a short time.

So she slightly limited the scope of the awards.

"..." Ximu was silent for a moment, and then said the reward he wanted, "I want a weapon that can exert the power of death."

"Excessive pursuit of death is not a good thing." The Death Witch warned calmly, and then took out a thick book.

"This is the blueprint for the weapon."

"Thank you." Ximu took the book and did not read it anxiously. He turned around and sat down on a chair aside, waiting for the cutscene to end.

And as expected.

"Are you the one who assassinated the Plague Goddess?" A gentle yet stern female voice suddenly came. Everyone looked along where the voice came from, and saw a woman with long silver hair, a black ribbon blindfolded, and wearing white clothes. The woman in a long robe walked in elegantly.

The atmosphere became tense at this moment.

However, Ximu was not affected by the tense atmosphere. Instead, he calmly observed the Goddess of Justice.

Although she was wearing a white robe that covered nearly every part of her body, her extremely mature figure still outlined extremely attractive curves, and her gentle temperament revealed a hint of helpless melancholy.

It really makes people want to be defiled.

"Yes, I killed her." The Witch of Death admitted frankly, not hiding anything about her killing of the Plague Goddess.

And there is no point even if she hides it, after all, only she can give the concept of death to "gods", giving people a chance to kill the gods.

"Who is your accomplice?" Goddess of Justice asked, but she saw the Witch of Death giving her an indifferent look.

He obviously had no intention of answering her question.

"How did you seal the omniscient god?" Goddess of Justice asked again, but the Death Witch still did not answer.

She asked rhetorically:

"Are you the only one coming?"

Lady Justice smiled and replied: "Yes, it's just me."

"Then let's talk somewhere else." The Death Witch nodded calmly, then turned to look at Hecate and extended an invitation.

"Witch of Destiny, do you want to come with me?"

Upon hearing this, Hecate looked at Ximu and said softly: "Apprentice, you should go back and rest first."

As soon as the words fell, it seemed that the process of leaping and moving directly reached the end of rest, and Ximu disappeared in place.

……

...

The next day. hotel.

bedroom.

"Boss, you're awake!" A voice of surprise reached his ears. Xi Mu opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Jade's lively smile.

He subconsciously wanted to get up, but found that his body was limp and he had no strength at all.

By the way, he was the one who used the curse to advance the power for the next three days.

"I will take care of the boss for the next three days." Jade said as he lifted Ximu up and leaned against the head of the bed.

Last night, she had learned through Hecate's dictation that Akhtar had used a curse to overdraw his power for the next three days.

In response, Ximu decisively refused: "No, I still have very important things to do."

"Even if you say so, boss, there is nothing you can do." Jade shook his head, and then seemed to think of a way.

"How about I go behind the boss's back to do things?"

"No need." Xi Mu leaned against the head of the bed, his voice calm, "Just go and help me buy a potion that can continuously restore magic power."

He did advance his power within three days, but as long as he could continuously replenish his magic power, he could regain his ability to move.

Of course, this will be very... expensive. It is impossible for normal people to spend money like this to bypass the curse.

But it happened that he was not very short of money.

"Boss, you... are... really thoughtful." Jade twitched the corner of her mouth. She never thought that there was such a way to circumvent the curse.

In response, Ximu waved his hand gently: "Hurry up and buy the magic potion, I want to take a bath."

"Then boss, please wait for me for a while." Geed did not hesitate and left the room happily to buy a potion that can continuously replenish magic power.

Seeing this, Ximu closed his eyes.

Race: "Human."

Rating: "52."

Skills: "Ten Shadow Magic, Prayer of Healing, Blessing of Death, Nest of Life, Fire of Ashes."

Talent: "None"

Achievements: "Impossible miracle, lover of the princess, slaying thousands of people, rolling wealth, touching the edge of a hero, hunter of giants, slayer of dragons, slayer of dwarves, enemy of ungrown gods, disciple of witches."

After killing the Magic Queen, the level will be greatly improved. You can consider capturing the mount so that he can quickly run the map and collect meteorites from all over the world to build the Great Sword of Death.

Then...

[Host, host! 】The excited voice of the system came, interrupting Ximu's train of thought.

Ximu asked: "What's the matter?"

[Now you only need to confess your love to the Witch of Destiny, and you can completely defeat the Witch of Destiny! 】The system is very excited.

[Although I don’t know why the Witch of Destiny has such a high opinion of you. 】

Ximu asked calmly: "After proposing to the teacher, do you think I still have a chance to conquer other witches?"

system:"……"

Indeed, if the host confesses to the Witch of Destiny now... Oh, wait, the host seems to be proposing.

"Host... I'm talking about a confession, not a proposal." He explained in a low voice, "Is there still a difference?"

"..." Ximu asked calmly, "If I confess my love to the teacher, do you think I will have a chance to defeat other witches?"

system:"……"

It seems that it is indeed not possible. Even if the Witch of Destiny dotes on the host very much, if the host confesses to her, the situation will be completely different.

Perhaps the Witch of Destiny is reluctant to harm the host, but the Witch of Destiny will kill those who are with Ximu.

It is impossible to share one's lover.

"Then host, what should we do now?" He humbly asked for advice, and then received the host's answer.

"Don't do anything. Once I have the strength to kill the God of Omniscience, I won't have to worry about that strength."

The system thought for a while and asked cautiously: "So host, do you plan to conquer the witches after becoming invincible?"

"If you are free at that time." Ximu replied casually.

In fact, he had no intention of trying to capture the witch, otherwise he would have been able to capture other objects while marrying the teacher.

"..."

The system does not know what the host is thinking. He is now beginning to worry that if the host really kills the omniscient god, instead of conquering all the witches, he will directly burn the world with fire. At that time, he will I can't imagine how desperate the host would be.

But he quickly thought of a solution.

[Host, you have to wait until you are invincible in the world before you attack the witches anyway. Why not attack the Witch of Destiny now and wait until you are invincible in the world...]

Before he finished speaking, Xi Mu asked, "Cheating again?"

system:"……"

Feeling so tired, he suddenly didn't want to talk to the host, but in a professional and systematic spirit, he still gave an answer.

[It’s a strategy, not a cheating. 】

"If you want to maximize profits, wouldn't it be best to conquer the Death Witch?" Ximu was unexpectedly patient, teasing the silly system.

He was in a weak state anyway and was passing the time.

[The Witch of Death is difficult to conquer! 】The system is unable to explain. In terms of difficulty, Death Witch is at least in the top three.

By the way, it’s worth mentioning the Witch of Time, which is the most difficult to conquer.

"You find it difficult, but I find it difficult before I wait." Ximu retorted as if nothing had happened, stabbing the system's little heart.

"System, you are too weak."

The system fell into a long silence, and said gloomily: [Host, I am going to adjust the template. 】

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Ximu's voice suddenly sounded gentle, "Now I can play the game without having to keep optimizing and adjusting it."

The system suddenly felt much better. His host was indeed not a bad person. Although he was murderous, he was quite gentle.

[Host, I... won't be tired. ] He explained, and then began to work hard to adjust the panel instead of using the current temporary attribute panel.

And right now.

"Apprentice, you seem to be fine." A gentle and concerned female voice came, and Hecate's figure appeared beside the bed.

She faced Xi Mu's gaze and touched her apprentice's forehead.

"You should have a good rest during this period, so that my teacher can help you make up for the missing knowledge."

"Ged has already gone to help buy potions." Ximu explained, and then looked at the books on the bedside table.

"And I want to build the Great Sword of Death as soon as possible."

"Apprentice, why are you so eager for power?" Hecate withdrew her hand and raised her hand to lightly touch the black hair beside her ears.

With her current strength, there is no problem at all if she wants to protect Ximu for a carefree life. After all, the news that she has become a witch has not been exposed, and even the stars belonging to her have been solidified in the starry sky by her. .

From the perspective of others, she is still in the human category. As long as the goddess of justice doesn't say anything, no one will know that she is a witch.

As for Martha, the Blood Countess, Sethe, Aleister and others, her memories were also tampered with by her magic.

So in this world, only three people know that she is now a witch, only the Witch of Death, the Goddess of Justice... and her apprentice Akhtar.
