The witches did not sleep at this time, and after a series of tribulations, they still could not believe the fact that they were being taken in by the prince. No shackles, no guards, just let everyone live in the castle, or is it such a spacious and comfortable room?

Wendy probably guessed the sisters' uneasiness, and together with Nightingale, she called everyone to their room, sat in a circle around the bed, and soothed everyone by chatting.

This is the demeanor of a leader, Ye Zi secretly thought, if it was Hakala, she would definitely not be so careful, or even if she noticed, she would not have the leisure to comfort her sisters.

"Sister Wendy, His Royal Highness the Prince...... What will you make us do?" asked the hummingbird timidly, "our abilities are far from that of you and Sister Nightingale. ”

This resonated with the other sisters, who all nodded their heads.

Wendy chuckled, "Let me think about it, huh...... The first thing you have to do is to practice your abilities. ”

"Practice ability?" Zoroya hesitated, "Is Your Highness going to let me keep drawing?"

"Quite possibly," Wendy patted Myzuki who was bowing her head to the side, "You too, although Hakara forbids you to use abilities in the camp, His Highness will not, instead, he will only encourage everyone to master their abilities as much as possible through practice." ”

"My abilities will cause trouble for my sister," Mizuki whispered.

"That must be practiced, too," Wendy said categorically, "and it's a matter of life and death." ”

"Life and death?" Ye Zi couldn't help but ask.

"That's right, His Highness Roland has found a way for witches to survive the Awakening Day safely," Nightingale said in Wendy's place, "and from now on, we can say goodbye to the pain of the magic backlash, and all the sisters can live to adulthood without any problems." ”

All the witches looked at the nightingale with wide eyes. I couldn't believe my ears for a moment. Surprised, Shujuan asked, "Is that Miss Anna you mentioned last time?" but you said you didn't know why. ”

"Yes, it was only His Highness's speculation at the time, but then Nanawa's Awakening Day confirmed it - she was also unharmed. ”

"So this method ......" the scroll couldn't help but hold his breath.

"As long as the mana is consumed every day," said the nightingale word by word, "I can see the change in the mist." Regular use will increase the total amount of body capacity, and at the same time, the pain of phagogy will be reduced. As soon as the day of awakening is approached, as long as all the mana is consumed, it will hardly cause damage to the body. ”

"I think you can feel it faintly," Wendy added, "and we were cautiously hidden in the corners of town during the days when we were hunted by the Church, and we didn't dare to use our abilities at all, so many sisters left us every winter. But this year in the camp of the Desperate Mountains. With the exception of Ainen and Ash, everyone survived the Demon Moon. ”

I see, Ye Zi took a deep breath, this is the reason why he encountered the Demon Devourer in the Wild Land, and the duration was extremely short. "In other words, the holy mountain is not in that no-man's land......"

"That's right, the Holy Mountain is not a specific place," Wendy nodded. "Whoever can accept us does not regard witches as devils. Wherever there is no restriction on the sisters' abilities, they are all holy mountains. ”

"Wendy had also asked His Highness Roland to make another trip to the camp after the Hive Moon was over to tell everyone the news. Nightingale looked at Wendy and said softly, "Even if you don't find the Holy Mountain." You too can live well in the mountains. ”

"Now that everyone is back, there's no need to mention this," Wendy smiled and shook her head, "So, whether Your Highness needs your abilities or not." For your own safety, you should also practice it every day. ”

"If this is the key to dispel the magic backlash, could there be any other witches who have already noticed this?" said the scroll after a moment's thought, "We're not the first witch organization to gather. In the kingdom of Dawn and Wolfheart, there are other witches' associations, and I have sent them letters inviting them to join us in our search for the Holy Mountain, but I have never received a reply. ”

Ye Zi sighed softly, she knew that there were still some words left unspoken in the scroll. Ever since he discovered an ancient book in an underground ruin in the Eastern Forest, Hakara has firmly led the group on the path to find the Holy Mountain. At this point, the Mutual Aid Society began a long journey of exile, crossing almost the entire Grey Keep. Along the way, we have met many new sisters and lost many sisters. If they had chosen to hide in that ruin from the beginning, would they have discovered the key in advance?

"We can try to contact the hidden witches in other cities," said Nightingale, "and His Highness Roland has the same plans." He wanted to unleash the rumors to draw the attention of the witches to this remote town. If we had threaded the needle in the middle, it would undoubtedly have greatly reduced their vigilance. ”

"But I still don't understand, what His Royal Highness is taking us into?" Echo was at a loss, this alien woman from the Far South had suffered worse than most witches, she had been sold by the Sandfolk to the merchants of Bishui Harbor, and then resold all the way to the royal capital. She was forced to learn dance and court etiquette, and even the art of pleasing men. If she hadn't happened to be rescued by the Mutual Aid Society, she would have been sold to a certain duke or minister at a high price. Until now, she still speaks with a distinctly interracial accent.

"Maybe it's like the people who want to buy you," Lily pouted, "Man......"

"Don't talk nonsense, Lily," Nightingale said unpleasantly, "Your Highness Roland is different from those people, as long as you stay here for a while, you will understand. ”

"That's right, I know this very well," Wendy still smiled gently, "It's not early today, let's go back to our rooms and go to bed first." Even if the ability doesn't work, don't worry. His Royal Highness said that he wanted the witches in the territory to live like normal people. If you have to know what Your Highness will ask you to do tomorrow," she paused deliberately, "I think you'll probably start by filling out a contract." ”

Leaf and Shujuan returned to their room, and the latter casually closed the door, "Let's sleep too." ”

"Hmm. When asked about her ability before, His Highness arranged her and Shujuan into a room, and said that this was only a temporary arrangement, and that there would be new single rooms in the town in the future. But in her opinion, it is no problem to sleep three people in such a spacious bed.

She took off her coat and got into the quilt, the indescribable softness and comfort suddenly enveloped her body, and Ye Zi couldn't help but snort softly and buried her head in the pillow. After a long time, she asked softly, "Do you blame Hakala?"

"......," Shujuan sighed softly, "no one knows what the future holds, and no matter what she does afterwards, at least at first she really wanted to find a home where witches can live in peace." There's no point in mentioning that now, sleep, kid. ”

She closed her eyes, "Good night." (To be continued.) )
