The Witch's Imaginary Land: Redemption Comes After Sticking Together

Page 87

She still had the face of a 15 or 6-year-old girl, but the deathly stillness and madness of when they first met were gone; she looked somewhat immature.

The night seemed to be pulled from the sky by her, transforming into a black Lolita dress with starlight, revealing the mixed sky behind it—the true boundary of the shattered space.

Solita's figure constantly shifted between reality and illusion, and she naturally donned the Lolita outfit, appearing somewhat adorable.

"Where are the others?" After a brief silence, Jiang Kehan ​​asked Solita.

She knew the other woman was preparing to become a true witch, but ironically, she still couldn't let go of Dave and the other kind-hearted people.

"They will become radiant until they find the next chapter of their lives." Solita walked towards Jiang Kehan ​​from the head of evil, with a gentle smile.

"I wouldn't hold a grudge against someone who has nothing to do with me. Apart from the skeletons, everyone else can have a new beginning."

Jiang Kehan ​​felt much relieved. This world doesn't have a place of reincarnation like the underworld, but it does have its own cyclical system.

Within the imagined world, including non-witch creatures in the shattered space, all transform into primordial matter upon death, awaiting their next destiny.

The advantage is that they never change themselves; the disadvantage is that this is also a means for witches to control other races.

Only those of truly pure races who conform to the witch's morality deserve the next chapter of their destiny; those who do not will become nourishment for the world, offering everything for others.

This is also why the moral standards of the different ethnic groups within the hypothetical village are generally higher—those with lower standards have long since been transformed into nutrients in the cycle.

“However, Kehan.” Solita stopped a few steps away from Jiang Kehan ​​and said, pretending to be troubled.

Is that all you care about?

Jiang Kehan ​​looked into the other person's eyes and knew perfectly well that they were hinting at something, but her face began to flush, and she became somewhat flustered.

I don't want to recall how immature I was on stage. It's a dark history, a whole lot of dark history!

Especially after Jiang Kehan ​​recalled the "little punishment" she had given Solita, she wished she could find a place to bury herself.

Why was I still proud of my idea back then? No way!

I don't want to recall the details anymore!

"Ahem, so, Solita, what's your final decision?"

Jiang Kehan ​​tried to appear serious, ignoring the other person's hints, and became earnest.

Solita looked at Jiang Kehan ​​with resentment; that wasn't what she wanted to hear.

"I lost, I lost miserably..."

After a brief silence, Solita gazed into Jiang Kehan's eyes and smiled.

"But I lost willingly, thank you Kehan."

"Your seemingly insignificant possibility has left a shining light in my heart, making me understand the value of my existence once again."

“So, I’m willing to follow your arrangements.” Solita looked at the other person, her gaze much calmer.

Thank you for helping me find meaning in this meaningless world.

Upon hearing this answer, Jiang Kehan ​​scratched her head, looking somewhat relieved, and then sincerely offered her blessings to Solita.

"To be honest, I wasn't confident I could pull you out of your madness, but now that you're no longer indulging in it, I'll welcome you on behalf of the witch."

"Welcome to join us and become the glorious Star Witch."

Jiang Kehan ​​looked directly at Solita, her words firm and resolute.

"You are not a monster, but our partner!"

No, that's not right, Kehan~

Solita looked at Jiang Kehan ​​with a smile, neither nodding nor refuting, but silently adding to her thoughts in her mind.

My madness remains unchanged, my evil runs rampant, and I will not deny the suffering of the past.

But now, with you as my new meaning, I can't bear to leave this world without you.

So, it wasn't a witch who saved me.

It's you, but it's: Jiuqisihan.

Solita Dagnas, the name actually means "lonely death."

And you, you made me no longer alone, you pulled me from the brink of death.

You are the best gift I have ever received!

"In that case, our agreement still stands, right?" Solita asked Jiang Kehan, sensing the final countdown in the shattered space.

Sigh, do we still have any agreements?

Jiang Kehan ​​was stunned for a moment. The promise made in front of the stage had already been fulfilled, so the only promise left was made on stage...

Solita extended his hand to Jiang Kehan, turning his hint into an explicit statement.

"You promised me that as long as I obeyed you, I would always follow behind you."

You said it before~

Jiang Kehan ​​was caught off guard by the other person's smiling face.

After a slight hesitation, she gripped Solita's hand tightly, looked up at her, and spoke with a firm tone.

"Of course it counts. After you become a witch, I would be honored to walk the path of witches with you."

"However, if you don't listen to me, I will still choose to leave."

Jiang Kehan ​​tried to make her expression look somewhat comical, noticing that there seemed to be tears welling up in the corners of Solita's eyes.

“Okay, I will be good.” Solita nodded. The evil that devoured the world behind her swallowed its last bite and then turned into a plush toy the size of a cushion, which fell into her arms.

It resembles a jet-black oval with cat ears, no tail, and smiling eyes, while its enormous mouth still exudes ferocity.

To be honest, some of them are kind of ugly-cute.

"Wait for me to come find you, Kehan." Solita, clutching the evil, fell backward, about to complete the final step in becoming a witch.

Before that, Jiang Kehan ​​would be sent back to her original room.

I know, Kehan, you just see this period of time as a small thing that you can do, and you don't really care about it.

But do you know, Kehan?

If your heart can pull me out of the abyss, then I, who have lost everything, can also use my sincere heart to break down your defenses.

You're not the only cunning one, Kehan. I'll also leave my place in your heart!

Solita closed her eyes, and this time the tears were no longer tears of disappointment and resentment, but rather tears that reflected her smile like jewels.

Chapter 127 Time Constraints

Everything came to an end, and Jiang Kehan ​​was sent out before she saw Solita become a witch in the final moment.

She stood in the room, looking somewhat dazed and confused, watching the faint light reflecting Solita's shadow, and breathed a sigh of relief.

This commission really took a lot of my time and effort, but it was all worth it.

Jiang Kehan's gaze softened, not only because the reward for completing the task made her satisfied, but also because saving a witch filled her with pride.

Hmm, now I can hold up an umbrella for other witches too.

When I get back, I have to have a serious talk with Li Hui. We finally have something to brag about, so I have to make her treat us!

Jiang Kehan's thoughts were jumping around. She had been under a lot of mental pressure lately and needed to find an excuse to relax for a few days.

I'm craving ice cream, sigh.

Jiang Kehan ​​raised her head slightly, letting out a soft sigh. Her attitude towards Solita was somewhat complicated.

But when she looked up, she saw something incredible.

A witch hung upside down on the roof like a bat, holding a notebook with a snow-white cover that looked like the skin of some kind of dragon, complete with scales.

The pen she used was like a carving knife made of solidified ice, radiating a chill as she wrote something.

Noticing Jiang Kehan's gaze, she forced a smile on her tired face, adjusted her monocle, and greeted Jiang Kehan.

"Hello, I'm Yu Shu."

Jiang Kehan ​​looked at the other person and couldn't help but scrutinize him.

Yu Shu didn't seem to have the characteristics of a witch from another race. She wore a long dress that didn't go past her knees, and had a small tuft of hair sticking up on her head. Her eyes behind her monocle looked somewhat lost, but her other eye was very sharp.

She acted as if the rooftop was the ground, casually putting her books and pens back into her personal space, hands in her pockets, like a detective with a "never-setting sun" style.

Uh, but the other person's smile looked more like a frown when viewed upside down, which made Jiang Kehan ​​take a step back.

"Hello, my name is Jiang Kehan. How can I help you?"

Miss Yu Shu, you're acting strangely, I'm scared.

Even a normal person would feel something was wrong if they suddenly saw someone standing on the ceiling, and Jiang Kehan ​​could sense the other person's unfathomable magic.

If her intuition is correct, the other party's magic may have a characteristic that targets witches.

This made Jiang Kehan ​​realize even more that the other party might be someone from the government or the Witch Organization.

"Hey, I'm here to help you." Yu Shu yawned, casually took a step, and walked up to Jiang Kehan ​​as if the air in front of her had turned into the ground, defying the laws of physics.

"You've been in here for quite a while, haven't you?" She turned her gaze to the faint light, her tone tinged with surprise.

Jiang Kehan ​​recalled carefully, and it seemed that she had indeed been inside for almost a month. Although the time was beyond her expectations, she felt it was worth it.

Why did Yu Shu ask this question?

Jiang Kehan ​​frowned and couldn't help but open her terminal to check the time.

But when she looked at it, she was stunned.

How is that possible? How could it only be three days?!

Yes, according to the date displayed on the terminal, only three days had passed from when Jiang Kehan ​​entered the shattered space to when she came out.

Jiang Kehan ​​stared blankly at Yu Shu with her mouth agape, asking her question.

"Could it be that the time flow is different in the miniature fragmented space and the imaginary world?"

Yu Shu nodded calmly, her tone completely flat.

"Not all shattered spaces are on the same timeline as the Imaginary Land, although most witches will deliberately adjust them to the same timeline for convenience."

"And what you have entered is a fragmented space with its own timeline."
