The reason Lady Nunnally gave for not visiting herself made Greem completely speechless

Lady Liana seemed to be a witch with a really odd witch complex She had an extreme and utter disdain and hatred for all 'fake witches'!

In her opinion, only those that upheld the traditions and beliefs of the ancient witches, and those with the legacies of the ancient witches could be considered true witches The truth of the witch’s path was in their choice of fate and their subservience and loyalty to the Witch Queen Those who no longer believed and hailed the Queen as their patron could only be called female adepts, not witches

Unfortunately Lady Nunnally, who called herself a witch, was one of the individuals that Witch Liana hated so h the mist and the trees before he even set foot in the dark swae However, there was still an odd and vague distance between hi for awhile and frequently changing his direction as he went

He turned back and looked, but even the entrance he came fro, as if sohost trees started waving in the wind as well, creating an extre from Alice's hand and smiled, "Are you scared now, Alice?"

"H up a tough front, "You think I have no idea of the tradition of us witches?"

"What tradition?"

"All the witches believe in the Witch Queen All killing is forbidden between felloitches Those who break this rule would become the co?" Greem asked curiously, "Then if it was you who accidentally fell into the poison puddles, would it be considered their fault?"

"Of course! Otherwise, any witch would be able to use such 'accidental' et rid of other witches they don't like!"

Alice had just finished speaking when a cloud of white athered by the pool of water beside her The mist formed into the shape of an elderly' woman's face It was a hideous and deathly pale face

"Little brat, don't be so sure of your words You aren't a real witch as of yet Killing you wouldn't be a violation of our vows!" The old witch in the mist cackled sinisterly

"But I'm already a candidate for the Witch of Fate now! If you killin the selection of the Witch of Fate" Alice eable The words she spoke rang true

"Aren't you a feisty one? Very well Thanks to this little brat, I'll make an exception and meet you two!"

The pool ofa pool of water after the old witch said that

The ghostly trees started to let out screeching noises as they slowly crawled to two sides, revealing a path as they did so

The Mushroo right through the mist

Greerass field in the e was located in the e It was only about seven hundred square e was even smaller It was only one and a half meters tall and less than five meters in radius

However it wasn't the size of the Mushrooe, but rather its rundown condition and crudeness that surprised Greee resehettos of the poor

It was cru off the roofs Even the e appeared to be pale and deathly, without any signs of life

"Co old voice carit his teeth He had no other option but to bend down and enter the Cottage with Alice

To his tremendous shock, the inside of the house wasn't as sht, he was still able to stand straight There was even fifty centie also had a second layer on the inside Greeh the cracks and e pillar stood in the middle of the house It isted, slanted, and filled withabove a roaring fire pit in a corner of the house Its contents seereen soup There were all sorts of odd contents bobbing about the pool of liquid White eyeballs, the arms of unknown creatures, and even hu in the air Greereen

Dammit, there was poison in this soup!
