Chapter 99 (2/2)
“I think everyone can even faintly feel it,” Wendy added, “While ere always chased by the church, ays hid in the furthest parts of town, not daring to use our abilities So every winter we lostin the cae, besides for Ari and Ah the Day of Awakening”
Thinking about this, Leaves took a deep breath, when she had encountered the deh the wilderness, it’s duration was exceptionally short “In other words, the Holy Mountain is not a piece of land…”
“Yes, the Holy Mountain isn’t a place,” Wendy nodded “As long as we can accept ourselves as e are, not thinking of ourselves as the devil’s subordinate, and when no longer hide our abilities, we are our own Holy Mountain”
“Wendy had even asked His Highness if he allowed her to go to the Witch Cooperation association camp when the Months of the Deale looked at Wendy and softly said, “Like this, even if you hadn’t found the Holy Mountain, you could still live freely within the mountains”
“Since everyone is here now, it is unnecessary to mention this,” Wendy smiled and shook her head, “It isn’t ihness or not Even if it’s only for the reason to keep yourself safe, you need to practice every day”
“If this is really the key to release us from the demonic bite, can it be that other witches were already aware of this?” Scroll asked and after thinking for a moment, she answered her own question “We weren’t the first Witch-Society The Kingdodom had already their own societies We even sent the them to accompany us on our search for the Holy Mountain, but we never received any reply from them
Leaves gently sighed, she had the saht but didn’t say it Since Cara found the ancient book in the ruins at the eastern border of the Kingdom of Graycastle, she firmly believed in the Holy Mountain and took us all with her on her endeavor At this point, the society started their longthe journey, we meet many new sisters, but we also lost a lot of the we had hidden ourselves within the ruins, would we have found the key?
“We can try to contact the witches hiding in other cities,” suggested Nightingale, “this was His Highness plan anyway He wanted to let other witches know of this safe haven by releasing rureatly release their worry
“In the end, I still don’t understand the point why His Highness should accept all of us witches?” asked Echo, clearly confused The southern witch had clearly suffered worse than most of the other witches First, she was sold by her own people to a businessman of the Port of Clearwater, who then took her all the way to the capital selling her once again to the King She was forced to learn the royal etiquette and how to dance She even had to learn how to skillfully please a man If it weren’t for the Witch Cooperation association who rescued her, she would probably already have been sold for an exorbitantly high price to the hands of a Duke or Minister Until now, her speech had still her own southern accent
“Maybe he is just the same like those who previously wanted to buy you,” said Lily with a sneer, “Men are…”
“Don’t talk about things you don’t understand, Lily,” said Nightingale resolute and clearly unhappy “His Highness, Lord Roland, is clearly different from all those you spoke about, after all, so here for quite a while”
“Let’s end it here for today,” decided Wendy and said while still wearing her kind so back to their rooet sohness, he still said that what he wants is for all of you to be able to live a life in Border Town that is as norhness will ask you tomorrow, it is,” here she deliberately paused for a moment, “I want you to accept this contract”
After Scroll and Leaves had finally returned to their own roo late we should sleep now”
“Well” Even before His Highness had asked about her ability, he had already arranged a rooether Even so, he had said that this was only a teement, and if the construction within the toas finished she could get her own rooh for three people, so it wasn’t really a problem
She took off her coat, got under the quilt and was immediately wrapped by an indescribable soft and co soa comfortable bed to sleep in, Leaves couldn’t help herself and began to happily croon while burying her head into the pillow After a long time, she softly asked: “Do you blame Cara for e had to face?”
Scroll kept silent for a very long tihed and finally spoke, “No one can predict the future, noshe really wanted to find a home for us witches Where we could live in peace, without having to have anything bad in our minds But this is all is of no importance, you should sleep now, child”
