Chapter 613 (1/1)
”Why, is it strange? Don't forget that she and I are witches Karen noticed the child's surprised look at HeLa and said sarcastically. Although witches like to show the ordinary people who don't know the magic, they can't understand the miracle, and get their worship and fear. However, this kind of flaunting often reminds them of their differences from human beings, even from their compatriots. No two witches have the same abilities. Their natural talents are unpredictable and difficult to control. Therefore, it's not that the gifted witches will surely come to the end. Mind and self-control are the criteria that witches should consider when selecting leaders.
In fact, it is the same. As far as talent is concerned, Karen is far less accomplished in sorcery than Ellen. Even Peggy, who has been bullied by the latter, has a field that no one can match among the new generation of witches. However, the sorcerer group would not give the garrison task to those two people. In their opinion, Qili's character is too unpredictable, and she has no respect for the elder witch. She can be used as the witch's sharp knife, but if she is careless, the weapon will certainly hurt the sword holder himself. As for Peggy, although the little guy with long hair looks submissive, the sophisticated old witch has long seen her dissatisfaction with lost heart Bay. If she has a chance, she will not hesitate to cut off her contact with the witch group.
In contrast, although she sometimes acts out of the ordinary because of her violent heart, she shows a certain degree of respect for the sorceress and other witches. Although this kind of respect is competitive, it is not a bad thing for witches to have a desire for power. Desire will become a driving force for young witches to master magic and knowledge. However, before the witch with the snake whip had learned to control her temper, the elder found her a partner enough to hold her, Hela.
Knife and fork, put on the wooden plate. Are you full? The child didn't know because he had never had a good meal before. But what he knew was that, at least now, his stomach didn't make any more calls, and his limbs had some strength. That's good. It's enough. So he tried to say something that he probably didn't have a chance to say in his life, ”I'm full.” With that, he had two eyes, oh no, one eye closed, and he looked like he was ready to lead his neck.
The witch's laughter echoed in the empty fortress. ”Oh, look at this poor little thing.” Said Karen, rising from her chair, playing with her whip and approaching her victim. Three sea snakes of different colors roared in the child's ear one after another, as if they would tear his throat with fangs at any time! After a few minutes or so, when the child has lost almost all his ability to move because of excessive tension, the voice in his ear disappears.
”I said I would turn you into a potion, but not now. But remember, boy, the reward has been paid, and you are my man now. If you want to run, I'll push you into a hole full of poisonous snakes, so that you can understand the meaning of the words pain and fear Said Karen, with her back to the child, as she hid herself in the corridor.
”Hoo, Hoo” the man sitting in the chair breathed heavily. Looking at the table, he suddenly realized that death was not as easy to accept as he thought after so much suffering. Just at this time, a pair of white hands gently picked up the wooden plate in front of him. It's hard to believe that just a few minutes ago, the hands were still as thin as ten thin hemp sticks. ”What does she mean, please? When will I die? ” The child plucked up his courage and asked Hela. Although he knew the origin of the witch, to be honest, he was still afraid of her. The strange talk and fear that people were afraid of were not so frightening for those who really struggled on the edge of survival every day.
”Don't worry, she is just like this. Maybe she will forget it in a few days. But you can't go now even if you want to. Can you help me with some work here before the tsunami subsides? ” Although her appearance is no longer withered, Haila's voice still has no solid foundation. If we have to compare it, it is like the sound made by the sea breeze passing through the beach. It is hoarse but extremely ethereal, which makes people afraid that it will disappear in the next moment and be nowhere to be found.
So the child naturally nodded, stood up and wanted to help with the wooden plate, but when he saw his deformed right hand because of the sea plague, he immediately carried it behind him. He remembered that he had been whipped for being too ugly, and he didn't want HeLa to hate him for it. However, the beauty and ugliness of the witch's view of things is naturally different. What's more, as the daughter of the tomb, Hera's own constitution makes her often show people an ugly appearance. The lady smiles and doesn't say much, but then, with a sudden thought of something, she says again, ”since you're here to help, give me your name. So I can call you, and you already know my name, don't you? ”
The child was silent for a moment and then faltered, ”I'm sorry, ma'am, but I don't have a name I don't have parents, I don't have company, I've never called me... ”
HeLa looked down at the top of the child's head, half of which had been lost by the plague and replaced by horrible flesh covered with lumps and abscesses. The witch's eyes were dim for a moment, ”nameless? Ha, it's like me. In that case, how about I give you a name? Don't worry. It won't be as casual as Hera. ”He raised his head, looked into the woman's eyes, and said in a very subtle voice, like a whisper and as if pleading, ”please give me your name.”
”Let me see What do you think of Cech
”Cech, I see. My name is Seth
The child, or Cech, is happy to have the name. But Hera didn't tell him that in the ancient language used among witches, Zeh meant plague. The grave gave the plague a name? It sounds a bit funny. But it's enough for this kid right now. With her elated Cech to the kitchen, Hera takes a worried look at the direction of Karen's departure. As the assistant of the fortress, she knew what their mission was. However, because of this, she was worried that her companion's competition would make her too arbitrary. Since the witch group sent two witches to complete the task, it showed that the task must be completed by the efforts of two people. Maybe it's time to talk to her about the mission. After all, seeing the tsunami is coming.
HeLa thought, and with magic she blew out the candle at the long table.
