"But wouldn't it bring about trouble for the er couldn't help but hesitate

"It ht have been troublesohtly smiled as she explained, "The Witches of Deceit went overboard, causing the other witch leaders to pressure theelina, to swear not to kill any other candidate that will participate in the Battle of Fate So the trouble you speak of no longer exists!"

"I understand, my lady I knohat to do"

"Mm, you may leave! Remember to notify them We will depart three days later as planned They will have to find another group if they round and bowed respectfully before slowly retreating from the tent

The witches ell-respected within the entire Northern Lands!

Not only did they possess incredible strength, but they were also the rulers of the Northern Lands, as well as the defenders and pioneers of that land

Frankly speaking, the entirety of the Northern Lands had been obtained through tooth-and-claw struggles against the native creatures and wild beasts thanks to the witches and their followers

Thus, all citizens of the Northern Lands felt sincere gratitude, respect, and love for all the Northern Witches

In this regard, the Northern Witches were the organization with theall the adept forces

…………

At this moment, Greem and Alice had finally settled doithin the inn

Inside their room, Alice had taken on the te him all about the Northern Witches that he needed to know

Of course, Greeins and ruling structure of the Northern Witches through books and various other means However, ave hiue impression of the witches, and could not compare to the in-depth explanation by a trueblood witch like Alice

She no longer needed to talk about the long and coh books Thus, most of Alice's priorities and focus was on the relationship and specialties of the various witch branches

The Northern Witches appeared to be a massive and harmonious witch force on the surface However, if one were to dig into their roots, they would find an inexplicable coanization The intricacy of the situation was enough to suffocate anyone that tried to think about it

If they were indeed as united as their appearances suggested, ere there only seven left of the original thirteen branches?

Even though it was true that each branch's rise and fall had their fates, it was a fact that six of the witch branches had gone colossed over bytowards fate!

The Agony Witches were proficient in curses They were the group of individuals that produced the ood at poison and plague They also had their own unique technique for creating undead

The Coldwinter Witches were masters of ice and snow They were also the most powerful and coy of their poith the cold and unforgiving weather of the north

The ability of the Dark Witches was stranger They were able to create a sort of unique soul energy pool and store their soul brand within it In doing so, they no longer feared death in coy pool within a dozen days, even if they gloriously sacrificed themselves in battle

The False Witches, on the other hand, had illusion as their innate talent The False Witches were a roup of individuals, even within the witches Very few people have seen their actual faces

The witch that had attacked Alice outside of Feidnan last time was, in truth, a Witch of Deceit that had transforuration powers of the Witches of Deceit weren't as sie to their bodies They also possessed soet when they transfigured and took on their form

It was one of the most powerful abilities of the Deceit Witches!

The reason Alice had chosen the roup of the Dark Witches over the Moya Clan of the Pale Witches was to avoid suspicion and trouble

The clan's performance and actions last tier wanted to be betrayed by her clan again
