Chapter 476 The Witch Council
The entirety of the Northern Lands belonged to the witches
The once incomparably powerful thirteen witch branches had split the Northern Lands into thirteen interconnected territories These thirteen territories surrounded a neutral land that spanned up to fifty kilo!
Werning was also a a-city of its own It possessed an impressive population of nearly three hundred thousand individuals Thein the city was the Council Hall that sat in the center of the city It was a sacred and holy land where only the witch leaders could gather to discuss their matters
Every witch branch had their territories and had to e all of their own external affairs The witch leaders would never waste their precious ti in the council of this rural area if it wasn't a reat importance that involved all the witch branches
Consequently, Werning had always been under the protection of the neutral witch clan, Clan Sidonthiria To ensure their absolute fairness and neutrality, the Sidonthiria Clan swore to defend Werning forever, and to never expand their influence even a single inch beyond the walls of Werning
It was the binding power of this ancient oath that allowed the unyielding flags of Clan Sidonthiria to continue waving above the skies of Werning, never changing through the years Only seven of the thirteen witch branches reed hands many times, but the Sidonthiria remained faithful to their post
It was a peaceful and casual afternoon
Uzzah was patrolling in the skies around Werning on her flying broo behind her when she suddenly saw a black speck appear on the distant horizon
Had outsiders co broom with a push of her hand, and she fleards the black dot with her party in tow
Patrol Captain Witch Uzzah frohen she reached a distance of almost two hundred uests in total They sat on top of a ical carpet, which was one of the most coroup activities and transportation
There were three people on theon the very front and carefully controlling the flight of the carpet was a witch apprentice Judging froht or nine years old The short apprentice's robe she as of a bizarre style A sye she wore on her chest It was the first time Witch Uzzah had seen such awitches sat crossed-legged behind the witch apprentice
The one in the lead earing a delicate purple and starry robe Her head of silky silver hair flowed down her shoulders, and her face was unusually gentle and quiet She had a pair of unforgettable blue eyes that shone with a seductive and mysterious charm
The witch at the very back appeared to be er resereen leather armor on her body She also held a thick wooden staff in her hands that looked unusually heavy
Witch Uzzah had repeatedly evaluated the newco brooed to match them to any knoitches in her head
Finally, she couldn't help but speak
"Sincerest apologies, but ahead of you is Werning City! If you wish to visit this place, please go to the ground and go in through the proper procedures Otherwise"
According to the rules passed down from ancient times, no ordinary witch was allowed to fly within fifteen kilo City Moreover, all witches would have to undergo constant surveillance by the witches of Sidonthiria Only witch leaders and the witches of Sidonthiria, who acted as guardians, were exeradually been reduced to a decorative organization over the past years, the enforce looser A few thousand years ago, any ordinary witch that dared casually fly close to Werning City like this would probably have been immediately detained by the Sidonthirian Witches They would never have been so pleasant as to co
"Froht to fly and land at the Council Hall immediately!" The pretty purple-robed witch suddenly spoke Her voice was deep but pleasant to the ears, yet it possessed a trace of ht that tolerated no disrespect
"Of course, this is a rule of the Witch Council," A smile of disdain surfaced on Witch Uzzah's face, "However, that rule only applies to the witch leaders of the various branches Ordinary witches can't…"
Witch Uzzah's voice suddenly stopped before she could finish That was because she saw a irl's upraised hand
"The Card of Fate?" Uzzah's knowledge was iven her capacity as a patrol captain She could feel the genuine mystical powers from the card and couldn't help but exclaih the Sidonthiria Clan stayed in Werning City and never intervened in the various tensions between the witch branches, they had still heard of the reactivation of the Tower of Fate and the rise of the new Witch of Fate
The Sidonthirians had also sent one or two representatives to send gifts to Alice at the conclusion of the Battle of Fate back then These representatives had all described the new Witch of Fate Alice as an individual so rasp on her
"I ao to the Council Hall What is it? Do you still intend to block my way?" Alice stared coldly at this witch of the Sidonthiria Clan
"I wouldn't dare Uzzah is willing to show you the way!"
Even though it was only a First Grade adept who stood in front of Uzzah, Alice possessed the halo of a witch leader on her head Alice was not a person that Uzzah should provoke for no reason
Witch Uzzah could only make way for this dominant and pushy Witch of Fate Alice She acco City
Two hours later, the long ringing of the Witch Council Hall's bells echoed throughout the city
Many Werning civilians walked out of their rooathered in the streets and gazed at the Council Hall, where the ringing had con to most people It caused them to be at a loss as to what to do!
