Kill me again, Miss Witch

Will you take the initiative to help improve your strength?

Xia Ya, who has a cautious personality, would rather believe that there are additional factors in this.

Obviously, he didn't seem to have a clear understanding of what he had done to Miss Witch before.

"You..." He hesitated, "Why?"

Seemingly aware of the inappropriateness of the words just now, Miss Witch lowered her head slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said in a calm and unwavering tone: "The first time we met, you liberated my body from the seal. .”

"The second time we met, you took the initiative to share part of the backlash of the curse for me."

"And just now, although your behavior seemed stupid to me, but..." the witch paused for a moment, then looked up at the young man under the stage, "From the beginning to the end, you didn't ask me for anything. any remuneration."

"So, this 'why', maybe it's better for me to ask."

As if to see through people's hearts, his cold eyes cast on Shaar.

Obviously, Miss Witch did not choose to fully believe what he said before.

Or in other words, there is still a certain degree of wariness, because from the beginning to the end, Shaar behaved too righteously, as if he didn't consider his own feelings at all.

Hearing this, Xia lightly sighed.

That's right, my purpose of coming here is not pure, so what qualifications do I have to question her?

So he saluted and said with a smile: "In this case, thank you very much for your generosity, Your Excellency."

Miss Witch nodded slightly, but did not speak.

But then, she gently raised her hand, and her snow-white wrist protruded slightly from the long sleeve of the black gauze skirt, and an invisible wave of power emerged.

"Bah! Hah!"

Seemingly sensing that the witch was going to be rough on him, the stinky mud surged wildly, trying to break free from the shackles of the black mist and escape from the vicinity.

But in the face of such an existence, all resistance is futile after all.

"Om-"

Accompanied by a sound of resonance, the magic matrix with a diameter of hundreds of meters was quickly outlined on the ground, covering the entire hall in an instant!

With Shaar's shallow knowledge, it is impossible to judge the source of the spell on this formation, and it seems that it does not belong to any kind of script known to the outside world.

If Tirus was here, he might have recognized it, after all, linguistics was his field of study.

The crimson magic circle gradually emitted a dazzling brilliance, causing Xia who was standing aside to narrow his eyes slightly.

Although Miss Witch didn't say anything, Shaar still stood up, took the initiative to get out of the range of the formation, and walked a few steps towards the steps.

Before he knew it, he stood not far from Miss Witch.

"..."

Agnes glanced at him, but said nothing.

At this moment, the invisible demon in the formation seemed to have touched a red-hot iron, and when it was slightly touched by those ancient and mysterious words, the whole ball of mucus violently churned, and a cold breath drifted out from the body. There were even distorted ripples.

Those auras were constructed by one after another unwilling souls, accompanied by screams and ravings, making Shaar's face turn pale.

This is the killing intent and resentment from the invisible demon, which is being purified one by one.

"He's going to fight back."

At this moment, Miss Witch suddenly said without beginning or end.

In the next second, the mass of black slime rose from the ground, and its volume instantly soared, turning into a giant flame dragon as huge as a tower, filling the huge palace, flapping its wings and roaring!

"Roar--!!!"

Intense coercion and storms spread in all directions.

Accompanied by the breath of flames that can burn everything in the world, the ferocious dragon head and the dazzling fire rush towards the face, making people feel as if they are really facing an ancient creature!

But it is a pity that no matter how terrifying the momentum of this giant dragon is, the impact it causes is difficult to break through the range of the magic circle.

After all, it was just impotent rage.

As if realizing that his attack couldn't even break the defense, the dragon's body quickly dissolved, turning into a puddle of pitch-black mucus that flowed on the ground.

But after touching the formation, there was another twitch.

In the next few minutes, Shaar watched this invisible demon switch forms one after another, including but not limited to: Titan, Deep Sea Serpent, Lich King, Skeleton Knight...

They are all extraordinary creatures that are hard to see in reality, and every change perfectly shows the characteristics of that creature.

Xia felt as if he had experienced a grand performance, which not only broadened his knowledge, but also was very interesting.

This guy... might be able to enter the circus in the future.

He secretly thought.

It's been a long time like this.

From the beginning to the end, the invisible demon couldn't escape the magic circle that refined him, like a bird in a cage.

Finally, the frequency of the invisible demon's transformation, which had consumed too much power, was reduced, as if lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, twitching from time to time, completely losing the ability to resist.

"..."

Xia Ya was about to speak, but suddenly found that the invisible demon in the formation was once again fluctuating before the transformation.

Immediately afterwards, under his shocked gaze, the mass of mucus slowly spread out, outlining a human silhouette.

As the outline gradually improved, the originally dark mucus gradually transformed into white and tender skin, and long jet-black hair grew out of thin air, scattered behind her, and dragged to the ground.

It was a woman with a beautiful appearance and a cold temperament, sitting on the ground in a duck posture, with her arms covering her chest, staring at Xia with indifferent eyes.

The most important point is that this guy is naked now.

Well, naked in the true sense.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Xiaya was stunned for an instant, and then broke out in a cold sweat.

Isn't this...fucking Miss Witch?

He glanced to the side subconsciously, and found that the other party's expression was normal, and he didn't deliberately make Xia close his eyes.

But a cold and piercing breath rose slowly.

"help me......"

The "Miss Witch" in the magic circle murmured in a cold voice, looking at Shaar with a little more helplessness.

Shaar decisively looked away, without any lust for the beautiful scenery in front of him.

Really, I've seen it all, and I still care about you, a fake?

Seeing the indifferent appearance of the two, the face of the "witch" in the magic circle gradually showed a trace of resentment.

Then, it turned into black humanoid slime again.

But this time, he maintained a vaguely feminine figure with bumps, standing in the center of the formation.

"I curse..."

"I curse you, I curse you to die!!!"

Accompanied by the painful howl of the strange woman, the invisible demon slowly knelt down on the ground.

"boom!!!"

Miss Witch raised her hand again, and an irresistible force descended from the sky, instantly crushing the invisible demon holding the female body, and the black mucus immediately splashed everywhere.

At the same time, the red light of the formation was so dazzling that Shaar had to close his eyes.

Until the end, there was no more sound.

it is finally over.

The magic circle covering the center slowly lost its luster and disappeared into the ground.

Although there was a very intense scene just now, the hall was still as clean as new, as if it had never been damaged.

On the ground in the center, a black droplet with a strange luster slowly floated.

The droplet has no impurities, as delicate as a pitch-black gem.

Shaar looked at the droplet, then at Miss Witch, but didn't speak.

"Go and embrace that power."

Miss Witch didn't mention the embarrassing scene just now, she said a little, and then looked down at the book.

Shaar nodded, and walked slowly towards the center of the palace.

The droplet is quietly suspended in mid-air. When you get closer, you can find that it is actually very small, only the size of a human pupil.

It's hard to imagine that the invisible demon who was able to transform into a dragon just now has only so little after being refined.

Shaar stretched out his hand and held the droplet in his hand.

A cold touch came, and then under his gaze, the droplet turned into a puddle of liquid, which melted in Shaar's palm, and then gradually penetrated downwards, disappearing into the flesh and blood.

The whole process only took a few seconds, and there was no strange feeling.

Is this the end?

Just as Shaar was moving his hands and feet with a puzzled expression, a reminder came from the system.

[It has been detected that you have obtained the new equipment "Invisible Demon Jhin (Phase [-])", which has been imported into the system. 】

[Invisible Demon Jhin (first stage): You can change it into any kind of non-concept item without life according to the idea in your heart. When it is converted into equipment, it will bring a 200% increase in strength to the host. 】

Artifact!

Glancing at the notes given by the system, Shaar couldn't help but exclaim.

This unlimited power doubling is simply too cool, and it seems that this is only the effect of the first stage.

Is this what it feels like to be taken care of by a rich woman?

Is it too cool?

"I have imposed a partial seal on it, so you can only exert a small part of the effect now." The witch slowly turned a page of the book on her lap, lowered her head and said softly, "You are too weak to Take control of this mighty force."

"Thank you for your gift."

Xia bowed again.

"I said, this is an equivalent exchange."

The witch replied flatly.

In fact, he came here to grab Miss Witch's wool, but the other party didn't know it, and gave him the artifact so generously, which made Xiaya feel a little ashamed.

After that, there was a long silence between the two of them.

Shaar, who was going to let the witch kill him with black mist, thought about it carefully, but still didn't choose to do so.

If he left here cleanly, she would be alone in the palace again.

Miss Witch is not someone who likes to take the initiative to talk, but she doesn't seem to reject talking to him.

Out of a trace of inexplicable guilt in his heart, Xiaya looked at the book in Miss Witch's hand.

Recalling the second meeting, the other party once turned the entire hall into a library with a vast collection of books, with no end in sight.

"Do you like reading books?"

He tried to initiate a conversation.

The witch didn't even raise her head, as if she didn't want to answer this obvious question.

Xia took a deep breath and continued: "Although it may be a bit arrogant to say this, in fact, in the outside world, my identity is a best-selling author, and I have written many popular stories."

"Would you... be interested in hearing my story?"

Chapter 44 Cinderella and the Glass Slipper

Hearing this, the witch's slender hands, who were turning the pages, paused slightly.

She raised her head and glanced at Shaar, as if she was a little surprised by this incident, but she didn't show it.
