Dong! Dong! Dong!
One of the witches rang the bell to warn the other witches. Soon, the witches who went to rest not long ago woke up.
They ca out of the tent, well prepared only to see their other sisters' tents were burning. Dead, bloody bodies covered the sandy ground.
The bloody scene angered and agonized them at the sa ti.
"Curse the wizards!"
"Curse them all!!"
They threw curses at the wizards while shielding their vulnerable sisters.
Colorful spells were thrown at the witches and they either vanished, got burned or slaughtered or turned into ash.
Darius, Zinnia and Ironin couldn't use magic. Using their weapons, they sliced any witch that ca into their sights. Ironin's arrow flew to any witch he could get his eyes on.
Darius moved his ax and hacked off the witches. While doing so, he clicked his tongue in annoyance.
Zinnia who was beside him smirked.
"What happened? Are you upset that I killed more than you?" she asked.
"What nonsense!" Darius snorted. "I'm definitely killing more than you. I'm sad that I'm raising my hands against sexy won. I hate this!"
He looked like a heartbroken lover who cheated on his wife.
wife.
"…"
Zinnia was speechless.
"Don't pay attention to him, Zinnia," rlin said. He walked in the air, above their heads.
"Did you see Arthur?" Darius asked.
rlin turned back and said, "He was creating a spell in the back. I don't see him there anymore."
"Maybe he went after that bloody queen," Darius said. "That bitch can be annoying."
"She won't die that early," Zinnia comnted. "Arthur won't kill his enemy so rcilessly. Don't forget what she did to Veronica."
Darius sweated. He didn't need to find out what his lovesick friend would do for his wife.
"Ah, he is over there," rlin pointed out on the right side.
Zinnia and Darius looked to their right.
They found Arthur using so circles to get rid of the witch tents. Purple aura spread miles and killed all the witches within the area.
"What are you guys doing? Did you forget that you are in the middle of the battlefield?"
Felix ca forward with a bloody sword.
"Focus on the witches, not Arthur," he added. "The queen disappeared from her place. We need to find her and end this war."
"We are supposed to get them off-guard. For them to fight back like this, it ans they knew we would co and were prepared for this," Zinnia stated.
She blocked a witch's attack and threw a shuriken at her. The shuriken stabbed the witch's neck and blood gashed out. She died on the spot.
"I did see the spies," Darius comnted. "Arthur's hypothesis was right as usual. I can't believe the bitch queen alerted the witches."
"I don't think that's her," Felix replied.
"Yeah, neither. That woman is just too stupid," Zinnia agreed.
"It's not that the witches randomly befriended the queen. Soone smart enough to have knowledge about politics and battles… a witch…" rlin voiced his thoughts.
"It seems to this isn't the end of the witches. We have to destroy their coven," Zinnia comnted.
"Let's hope we don't have to. I want to end this war right here and now. I don't want another battle in the scorching hot desert," said Darius while wiping his forehead.
Others couldn't agree more. They were profusely sweating. Whatever water was in their body was seeping out of their body.
"Couldn't there be a way to only cool our team?" Darius asked aloud.
"There is," rlin replied. "Only Arthur and Ovior can do it while fighting against the witches. I, on the other hand, can't focus on both. I also don't have enough mana to release both magic spells at the sa ti."
Darius groaned painfully.
"Get so water at least!!"
While they were fighting, suddenly the ground shook.
"Earthquake!" Darius shouted to warn others.
"It's not an earthquake!" Zinnia yelled. "Look!"
Everybody looked in the direction she was pointing out.
The desert was a vast land with golden sands all around it. A tiny peak ca out through the sands.
The tiny peak gradually beca a sand tower that turned seventy-three ters tall.
Everyone stared at it in a daze.
Felix used his left hand to shade his eyes from the sun as he asked, "What the hell is that?"
"Witchcraft," rlin murmured.
"Huh? That's witchcraft?!" Darius exclaid. "Why the hell then I'm still a warrior? I should just beco a guy witch and build houses like this? I'll beco rich!"
"When did you care about? You earned so much but always wasted them on won," Zinnia complained.
Darius smirked. "Won are worth spending money on."
"But what is this doing here? Any clue?" Felix focused on the main topic.
They didn't have to wait for long. A witch ca to view.
From the top of the sand tower, they could see the witch wearing a beautiful black gown and a black veil was covering her face. Right beside her was Queen Isabell.
Queen Isabell was wearing a red gown. She was stripped of her title but her luxury knew no bounds.
Although she covered herself with gold and jewels, the eye-catching person was the black-veiled witch beside her.
"Why doesn't she feel hot? I'm getting jealous here," Darius complained.
"I feel so unusual power from her. She must be the one who built the tower just now. She could be the head of the witch," rlin stated.
"Then we should take both of them down," Zinnia stated.
She threw one of her shurikens at them. However, it didn't reach those won. A black smoke prevented the shuriken.
"There is a layer surrounding the tower," rlin said.
"Where is Arthur?" Felix mumbled while looking around.
He found Arthur close to the tower. He also found it suspicious and used magic to fly close to two won.
"You have so nerve coming in front of ," he said in a threatening voice.
Queen Isabella smirked. Before she could speak, soone brought another woman in a white dress.
Just looking at the face of that person, Felix, Zinnia, rlin and Darius's eyes constricted.
"Wait… isn't that…"
