Release that Witch - Chapter 257

[Chapter 256 The Prelude to a New Life]

After the hanging basket fell to the ground, a witch who looked about thirty years old with red hair hanging down to her waist stepped out of the basket and came forward, “Hi, welcome to Border Town, I’m Wendy. ???? ? Liewen???????” Then she looked at Ashes and smiled happily, “You are here too.”

Is she the witch that Ashes mentioned earlier?

Sylvie looked at the two thoughtfully. It seemed that they had known each other for a long time.

“Welcome, I’m Anna.” The appearance of another witch caught Sylvie’s eyes, and those blue eyes as pure as lake water were really eye-catching.

But what made her more concerned was the magic power of the other party – huge, thick, and almost flawless.

A block composed of black, white and gray slowly rotates, and even the magic power gathered around it is distorted by it.

What an amazing power this is?

It was the first time Sylvie had seen such oppressive magic power.

“Hi, my name is Lightning!” It was this little girl who was flying next to the gondola, and Maggie followed closely and landed on her shoulder.

“Cuckoo!”

After Ashes briefly introduced the witches of Sleeping Island, Wendy smiled and invited everyone to board the gondola.

“The huge air bag above the head is called a hot air balloon. As long as it can provide it with scorching hot air, it can take everyone across the mountains and reach their destination.” She paused for a while and asked Ashes, “You really don’t want to go to the small Do you want to visit the town? I think His Highness definitely wants to see you again.”

“He will not welcome someone who intends to poach his witch.” Ashes smiled, “I will trouble you to take care of these children.”

“Yes Well…” Wendy pursed her lips with some regret, “Don’t worry, I will treat them well.”

“Then hurry up, everyone,” Anna reminded, “Yaowang is about to take off.”

Sylvie only felt a slight tremor under her feet. The hanging basket had already left the ground. She poked her head out and saw Ashes and Molly waving to them. As the hot air balloon continued to rise, the scenery on the ground shrunk and shrank. , The two soon turned into nail-sized spots-in any case, a new life will soon begin.

Wendy’s ability seems to be to control the wind, and under her control, the hot air balloon moves in six directions inside Graycastle.

It was the first time for Sylvie to look down on the land from the air. Although neither the land nor the rocks could stop her from exploring, it was still a novel experience to have such a wide range of vision in one go.

She tried to summon the magic eye, but unexpectedly, a chaotic scene flooded into her mind like a tide – the steep rock wall hidden in the depths of the sea, the underground river connected to the sea, the animal bones buried in the soil, and the hidden rocks of the underground rock formations. Changes… These pictures immediately made Sylvie feel a splitting headache, and the magic power in his body dropped sharply.

She quickly interrupted the magic eye, leaned against the hanging basket and panted heavily.

“Are you okay?” someone asked.

She opened her eyes and found that the other party was Wendy.

“Well, it’s just a little… dizzy.”

“Taking a few deep breaths will help,” Wendy smiled, “Many people feel uncomfortable when they are away from the ground for the first time.”

“Thank you, I feel better,” Hill Vi nodded.

The atmosphere along the way was much more harmonious than she had expected at first. Just like Ashes said, Wendy cared about everyone and would not treat them differently just because they were newcomers.

Although Anna doesn’t talk much, as long as someone asks her a question, she will still answer it seriously.

Lightning seems to be very close to Maggie, and has a very lively personality. From time to time, he flies into the hanging basket with fat pigeons to chat with everyone, and does not regard himself as a stranger at all.

With Maggie acting as the bond between the two parties, the other four gradually relaxed and asked Lightning about the situation in Border Town.

In the end, the little girl simply hovered over the hanging basket and told everyone the story of the town’s fight against evil beasts and invaders, as well as the incredible inventions of His Royal Highness, which stunned everyone.

It didn’t take long for the hot air balloon to reach the sky above the castle.

From the perspective of size alone, this town is indeed worthy of the term frontier, it is small and remote, and its scale is less than one-third of Sleeping Island.

However, there are a lot of townspeople, no matter in the central square, outside the city wall or on the river bank, crowds of people can be seen everywhere.

They ran back and forth, converging into a surging stream.

The hot air balloon directly landed in the courtyard of the castle. Just as it stepped out of the basket, bursts of roars suddenly sounded. Sylvie, who was caught off guard, was shocked and froze in place for a while.

The other four were not much better, Mi Tang even turned back into the basket, showing half of her head and asked, “What happened?”

Wendy couldn’t help laughing, “Don’t worry, this is His Highness playing Fire the salute, and welcome your arrival.”

Walking through the corridors covered with greenery and entering the castle hall, Sylvie finally saw Tilly’s brother – he was sitting on the main seat in the hall, and he looked similar to Her Highness the Fifth Prince is somewhat similar, she also has gray hair, without any extra pendants on her body, her expression looks relaxed and natural.

Although her face was far less pleasing to the eye than Lady Tilly’s, she had a calm demeanor that could attract everyone’s attention just by sitting there.

“Welcome to Border Town. I am the lord of the Western Territory, Roland Wimbledon. You must already know my name.” He got up and smiled, “Tilly Wimbledon is my younger sister, so you don’t need to feel restrained Just

treat the town as a sleeping island.”

Sylvie couldn’t help but opened her magic eyes, and then couldn’t help but startled.

The expected darkness did not appear, and the opponent did not wear the God’s Stone of Retaliation, and there was no trace of magic activity on his body—what he was originally, he still looks like in real vision.

It wasn’t a disguise, nor was it controlled, it just showed that the man in front of him was Roland himself.

And among the countermeasures Master Tilly gave her, there was only one sentence for the situation of “no clues”: send the news back to Sleeping Island.

…

She didn’t listen to what Roland said next, and her head was in a mess.

In order to fulfill Lady Tilly’s entrustment, she even thought about the words and expressions she would use when negotiating, and even prepared to be imprisoned, but unexpectedly, it was completely useless.

Next, just wait until the end of the month and let Maggie bring this information back to complete the task.

But how is this possible?

A real nobleman is determined to protect witches?

Also became the leader of the mutual aid society?

The psychological gap made Sylvie a little dazed, and she didn’t come back to her senses until His Highness arranged the sleeping room for the night.

“The situation is roughly like this. The witch building has not been completed, so you can only temporarily live in the castle and share a room with other witches. Of course, this will also facilitate you to quickly integrate into the life of the town.” Roland said, “Today There will be a sumptuous dinner waiting for everyone tonight, as an official welcome to Border Town, enjoy it.”

Sylvie was relieved by the result of room assignment, and she was finally arranged to live with Wendy , Judging from this brief contact, Wendy is indeed a good senior, and it should be easier to get along with her.

But besides her, there seemed to be a witch named Nightingale living in the room.

I hope the other party is also an easy person to get along with, Sylvie couldn’t help thinking.
