Witch of the Covenant (2)
1.
In an immigration office made for the witches to travel between the Modern World and Gehenna.
The lounge connected to the portal was crowded with people, as today, there were a lot of witches visiting the place.
From beyond said portal, a witch with light pink hair, akin to the cherry blossom, came out.
Her magenta eyes shone with pride and conviction, no coquetry nor flirtatious allure were hidden within them.
With her pursed thin lips and charming body lines.
And the way she carried herself as she walked towards the center of the lounge with short, yet precise steps, showing the aura of a charismatic leader.
As soon as they saw her, the witches who had been conversing inside the lounge, all went silent.
Then, they promptly lowered their heads.
All of them recognized who this woman was; A personage that stood out even among the witches.
The Witch of the Covenant, Duchess Eloa Tiphereth herself.
Though, the reason why they bowed their heads wasnt solely because of their respect towards her title.
After all, this was the woman who slaughtered hundreds of Homunculi and killed dozens of criminals for their sake.
No matter how bull-headed or self-righteous a witch was, theyd pay their respects to her merits and noble acts.
Toward such an awe-filled response, Eloa gave them a look before walking towards the person she was looking for.
Its been a while, Madam Deneb Gemini.
Duchess Tiphereth. Have you been well?
In front of her was a white-haired witch, dressed in an old-fashioned mermaid dress, greeting her with a smile.
As soon as Deneb received the Duchess call, she passed over her tightly packed schedule to Albireo and came out to greet the Duchess by herself.
It wasnt a surprising response. After all, the Gemini Household profited by purchasing and selling items and legacies that were acquired by the Duchess.
She was a customer who provided them with a continuous supply of high-quality magic tools and artifacts, of course theyd give her a VIP treatment like this.
Wheres Ea Sadalmelik?
Shall we change our locations before we talk? I brought my carriage here.
Lets get going then.
Eloa strode past Deneb with a rather rough gait, but the latter understood the reason behind it.
While at a glance Eloa might seem calm, Deneb could clearly see that she was trying really hard to suppress her emotion. Like a ticking time bomb, said emotion could explode at any moment.
This was the person who had been wandering around the Modern World for the last century. Never once did she set foot in Gehenna since then. But, as soon as she had heard the news of Eas death, she immediately rushed back here.
That was how strong her desire to confirm the authenticity of the news she received with her own eyes, despite her having access to long-range communication devices.
The two people sat opposite of each other inside an elegant carriage.
As soon as Deneb settled herself on her seat, Ea opened her mouth to speak.
Ea Sadalmelik is dead? Is this true?
First of all, I would like to express my condolences. And indeed, last winter, the Witch of Aquarius sneaked into Gehenna to attack Baroness Marigold, and was promptly killed in the battle between herself and the Baroness.
At that moment
Deneb saw Eloas accusing gaze collapse.
But, she was still staring at her in disbelief.
This was probably the reason why she visited her directly, as Deneb was someone who was capable of collecting more accurate information than anyone else.
Impossible
Duchess
Thats impossible. That woman is a thorough one And her persistence is like that of a cockroach What of her body? Have you found it?
Eloa asked, leaning her body towards Deneb as if she was about to pounce on her.
This put the latter into a little bit of predicament.
After all, if she couldnt control her anger and lightly hit the carriage with her fist, it would inevitably collapse, just like a mountain house getting run over by a landslide.
We havent found her body However, considering the nature of Baroness Marigolds self-essence magic We can at least confirm that she evaporated without a trace.
The nature of Particle Magic was to interfere with its surroundings by spraying microscopic particles around. Itd tear any opposition into pieces, bit by bit.
Back then, Deneb immediately rushed to the place where they had fought after hearing the twins words, only to find Amelia screaming while hugging Siwoo. The Baroness was without any injuries, meanwhile Sadalmelik had been turned into a pile of flowers.
It was clear that the gap between their skills was overwhelming.
With such a difference, there was no way shed allow Sadalmelik to escape.
At least, Deneb was sure of this.
The further she went in her explanation, Eloas expression became even more crumpled.
At this point, the Duchess barely managed to suppress her heavy breathing that was mixed with nihilism and resentment.
You said that the one who fought Sadalmelik was Marigold, right? Ill meet with her in person. I still cant believe that wicked fox is dead. Please arrange it for me.
Eloas tone was ablaze with her passion to not give up on this matter so easily.
On the other hand, Deneb was put in a tough spot.
This was because she had learned from Sophia about the condition the Baroness was in.
She locked herself inside the hut she used to live in as an apprentice, stating that she wouldnt meet with anyone.
3.
I saw her last moment with my own eyes.
Amelia retold the events that happened that day with sincerity.
Though she occasionally felt a pang in her chest as she talked about Siwoo.
As she had expected, the Duchess went out of her way to visit her to hear about the process that led to Eas death, and to make sure that she was really dead.
She understood this feeling.
After all, she only had one in a lifetime chance at revenge.
Except that her chance was already gone, as Amelia was the one who had pulled the trigger for her.
But, it wasnt like she had another choice back then either.
My apologies.
With these words, Amelia ended her story.
The Duchess weakly stood up from her seat.
During that time, have you ever lost sight of her for a moment? Or noticed something unusual from her?
No.
Did you feel something like an illusion magic or space magic being casted?
I didnt.
I see Thank you
Eloa, who expressed her gratitude in a shaky voice, as if she had lost her energy, felt like a different person than when she first came in.
Her previously sharp gaze had turned gloomy, and her dignified tone had turned into that of a sick person.
She then trudged out of the cabin, leaving only Deneb and Amelia inside.
Deneb took a sip of the already cold tea before putting down the cup.
The Duchess is having a hard time maintaining her composure.
I could see.
If I were to leave her alone, shed come barging in here That was why I brought her over despite knowing that this was rude of me
Its okay.
Then, Ill take my leave.
Seeing Amelias condition, Deneb thought that she was in a better state than she expected.
Or maybe shes faking it?
After saying her goodbye, Deneb left the cabin, comparing Amelias current appearance with the one she had seen in the past.
Back when she left the twins in her care, Amelia looked just like a living doll.
Though she was pretty, even from a witchs point of view, her beauty felt artificial, as it was devoid of any human emotions.
When she visited her for the second time, to gain the ownership of Shin Siwoo from her, she was much more lively than before.
Though she showed more negative emotions, such as nervousness and mild anger, it made her seem like someone who could feel both joy and sorrow.
Comparing those two appearances to her current one, Deneb concluded that she looked closer to the first time they met.
While she looked fine on the outside, she exuded a cold sharpness that seemed as if she could cut anything that touched her.
Is she feeling upset?
However, she wasnt her nanny, therefore, she didnt need to care about her condition.
So, she went straight to Eloa, who was walking further away from her.
What are you planning to do now?
I dont know.
How about a little rest? Ill prepare a place for you at my mansion.
No need, I still have something to do. There is an enemy that I need to chase, I have to catch and kill it before it teleports again.
Are you going right away?
Yes.
Deneb felt that the other witch was pushing herself too hard.
She even gave up her magic research and lived to get her revenge, so that no one would experience the sorrow she felt.
Now that one of her goals that she had been pursuing for a century had suddenly disappeared, the feeling of emptiness must have weighed on her body.
Its nice meeting you after such a long time.
If only she could let it go for a little.
With those feelings in mind, Deneb asked her a question.
Where are you heading to?
Korea.
That was the answer that came out of her mouth.
