“Auntie, I’ve already sold out all my milkshakes and teppanyaki takoyaki. There’s no point blocking !”
Ethan looked a little flustered as he stared at the witch in front of him and said, “If you think they’re tasty, you can line up early tomorrow. I’ll give you a discount, hahaha!”
“Weren’t you calling a pretty lady earlier?”, The witch’s expression darkened slightly.
“Right, right, pretty lady,” Ethan hurriedly corrected himself, “Then if the pretty lady doesn’t need anything else, I’ll be on my way now.”
“Young man, why are you in such a hurry to leave?”
The witch had no intention whatsoever of letting Ethan go. She even laid her entire two-ter-long broom horizontally in front of him and said, “It doesn’t matter that you’ve sold out. I don’t want those things anyway. What I want is you. As long as I have you, whatever I want to eat, won’t I have it?”
“Auntie, even though I don’t really want to work hard anymore, I think I’m still young. I can’t just be a salted fish for the rest of my life,” Ethan explained quickly, “So I think it’s better to wait until I actually want to be a salted fish, and then I’ll co look for you.”
“Heh! Too late!”
The wilderness witch let out a cold laugh, then pulled out a branch from the tail end of her broom.
That branch was straight in shape, and at its tip was set a red gemstone. One look was enough to tell that this thing was a piece of high-level equipnt.
But who would have thought, that a rich lady was already so wealthy that she treated high-level equipnt like this, casually sticking it into a broom.
“Once I set my sights on you, there’s no escaping.”
As the wilderness witch spoke, she began skillfully waving the staff in her hand. And sure enough, a ring of tiny sparks appeared at the tip of the staff.
Seeing this, Ethan hurriedly pulled the necklace off his neck and said, “I’ve got backing and connections. You can’t just do whatever you want to .”
This guardian necklace only had one chance left.
And it had just been used last night.
Ethan had no idea whether this guardian necklace could even still be used now.
But even if it could, it would only protect him once.
Judging by the rule that the uglier a witch is, the stronger her magic, Ethan firmly believed that the old witch in front of him was definitely a grand witch, maybe even at the level of a thousand-year witch.
If one attack failed, she would definitely attack a second ti.
Then even if he had the guardian necklace, he’d probably still end up kneeling.
“Heh! Heh! Heh! You almost fooled .”
After a thread of white light gathered on the witch’s staff, she finally stopped chanting that long, stinking spell and looked at Ethan with a cold smile, “If not for my sister, I really would have almost been tricked by a little liar like you.”
"Last night I asked my sister to help divine it. She said your necklace was just looted from the Nightmare Rat King. You’re nothing but a fraud with no backing at all."
“Uh…”
'Damn it, there’s even divination?'
Ethan knew he couldn’t fool her anymore, and saying more nonsense was pointless.
Right when a fight was about to break out (actually, a one-sided beating), Ethan hurriedly opened his backpack.
He rummaged through it, and in the end, the only thing he found was the Red Goblin Hat, a piece of equipnt with magic defense.
[Red-Hat Goblin Helt: Just as ugly as all helts are, but still better than wearing a green hat. Special effects: Defense 200%, Magic Defense 20%]
Just as the description said, this miner’s helt was ugly, sure. But at least it had magic defense. Blocking even a little was better than nothing.
Ethan put on the helt, then raised his forty-nine-ter-long Dragon-Slaying Blade and said in the most domineering posture possible, “Wilderness Witch, listen carefully! If you’re willing to cease fire, I’m willing to hand over all my money to you!”
“Not interested!”
The wilderness witch waved the staff in her hand, then pointed it at Ethan and said, “Once you beco my servant, what do you have that isn’t mine? Even you will belong to .”
“Transform!”
As soon as she finished speaking, a beam of light shot straight out from the tip of the wilderness witch’s staff toward Ethanm
(∩^o^)⊃━━☆ﾟ.*✨
Seeing this, Ethan also exhausted all his strength and shot a Great Fireball Technique straight at the wilderness witch.
๛ฅ(๑д๑)ฅ
However—
☆ﾟ･｡*๛.✨
When Ethan’s Great Fireball t the witch’s white light, it was actually swallowed up directly.
Then it turned into specks of fla and disappeared completely.
'Holy crap!'
They weren’t even on the sa level.
Just when Ethan thought he was definitely dead, he saw the witch’s magic strike his body. Not only did it not hurt or itch, but a brilliant white light burst out all around him.
That white light was as exaggerated as a Saiyan transforming, instantly lighting up the entire Mist Forest.
It even drove the white fog around him several ters away!
“Ah!”
Imdiately after, the witch’s scream rang out in Ethan’s ears.
Only then did he hurriedly look over at the witch in confusion, and saw a frog lying on the ground.
“Ribbit~”
'Damn it!'
'So the witch really had planned to turn into a frog.'
And judging by her intentions, she didn’t plan to let Ethan wake up through a princess’s kiss, but through the witch’s kiss instead.
'This is just too damn… Hans Christian Andersen.'
But, that aside, what exactly was that white light just now that saved his life?
Ethan quickly jumped off his horse and carefully looked at the spot where the white light had appeared. It was exactly the saddle the werewolf had given him.
[Werewolf’s Blessing: The saddle has been imbued with the werewolf’s blessing. This blessing can reflect any malicious damage. Passive trigger skill. Remaining uses: 0]
'So it was the saddle from the werewolf driver. Aweso!'
'Too bad the uses are all used up.'
“Ribbit!”
The frog croaked again, then began hopping away toward the forest.
Ethan naturally wouldn’t let go of the culprit who had wasted his precious protective equipnt so easily. What’s more, this witch still had a sister.
If she found her sister and then ca back to take revenge, just thinking about it made Ethan shudder.
He didn’t want to be in this Mist World and get targeted by a bunch of rich won, and each one of them a thousand-year-old demoness.
He stomped down on the frog with one foot.
“Rib–”
The croak stopped abruptly.
And the frog was crushed into a dead frog under Ethan’s foot, its organs completely bursting out.
He didn’t believe this thing could still be alive.
“No, still not reassured.”
Ethan thought about it and still felt that these witches were unfathomable, and who knew what strange treasures they had on them that could let them co back from the dead.
So he decided, to set another fire and destroy the body completely.
A Great Fireball Technique drifted lazily toward the frog’s corpse just like that.
