Chapter 976 (1/2)
”Magic affecting more than just our abilities?” Ashes was surprised
”Yes, ic affects many aspects For instance it allows our body to be more flexible We can also heal wounds eneral live healthier,” Phyllis said slowly ”Our teed”
”Wait, what do you mean by temperament?”
”As itches use es e are For exaeance as you see your friend cut down An experience like this can scar witches and they would become indifferent, or even ruthless,” Phyllis said, her eyes fixed on the flickering flames ”For a warrior, this type of eous but it also turns her into”
”Into what?” Ashes felt uneasy
”A monster”
Ashes stepped back and almost tripped
Ashes recalled her past There's nothing else she would've done, she killed countless church members Ashes remembered how she hacked person after person, herher into an uncontrollable killer She felt like she had infinite power in this bloodlusted state However looking back she was just an e any real eained her humanity
”Of course, that's not the case for all witches It's only a trend When faced ar, all people could care about is surviving The long and hopeless period of resistance could even drive the common people mad We're kind of fortunate that we can at least use our desperation to turn into fearless berserkers,” Phyllis paused ”even if you find it hard to understand the events that happened during the Union, our methods make sense Without firm determination, the Three Chiefs couldn't be Transcendents”
”I see” The campfire swayed a little as Ashes poked it ”If the Battle of Divine Will lasts forever, ill happen to the witches?”
”No one knows Maybe they'll even look different,” Phyllis said lightly ”After all, the witches' beauty was judged by their facial features If they becoe, like the way the demons look”
The flaain For a moment, silence loomed over the cave
After several moments pass, the God Punishht the demons?”
Phyllis gave her own answer first after thinking that Ashes is hesitating ”Our reason is siain the glory of Taquila Only with this faith in our heart could we last out until this day”
”You want to rebuild Taquila?”
”Of course, this placeto devote our lives if that is what it takes to rebuild However if King Roland es to vanquish the demons, then the path he has chosen proves he's more capable than the Three chiefs If the cooperation between the witches and the co future, we certainly have no objection”
Ashes kept quiet for a moment before she replied, ”I just want to protect a certain person dear to me Help her in any way I can If she wants to throw demons out of the Land of Dawn, I will do that for her”
”I see” Phyllis said and then shook her head ”Please forgiveenemies”
”Why is that?”
”Because it's too broad, too unspecific” Phyllis extended her hands ”You'll get lost, especially at the crucial moment of life and death It's hard to define what a person wants Most importantly, do you really knohat she wants?”
