"You can't even fire a fireball, how can you be called a witch?"
Wu Ke was a little surprised.
"Could it be that you follow another genre, such as transformation or something like that?"
he asks.
"I can't transform either."
His face was a little dark, and he explained the situation directly without waiting for Wu Ke to ask further questions.
"Please don't compare me with the witches or wizards in storybooks. Apart from my ability to become immortal, I am not much different from ordinary people. I can't throw fireballs or transform. You If you want to see a juggling act, I know how to do double-blind magic, do you want to see it?"
"Okay, let me take a look."
Wu Ke nodded and answered the witch's question.
: "..."
Looking at the curious and scrutinizing gaze of the man opposite her, she was also a little helpless. This guy didn't seem to follow the routine. He could only take off the hair tie with a ball head on his head, loop it up and put it in the palm of his hand. superior.
"Wait a minute, the hair tie will disappear from the palm of my hand and then appear on my back. Do you believe it?"
While talking, she made demonstration movements, and when she took her hands out from behind her neck, she still made a grabbing gesture and asked.
Wu Ke: "..."
He originally thought he would see a space-type move, but it turned out that the witch lady actually put the curled hair tie on the back of her neck when she made the demonstration move just now, and is now using a loose hair clip Live hair ties.
"So, put the hair tie around your neck in advance and pretend to be holding something in your hand. Is this your magic trick?"
To confirm, Wu Ke also asked.
"It seems that you have seen through it. Yes, this is my little magic trick."
He didn't hide it at all. When the person opposite him saw through his little trick, he admitted it generously.
She took off the hair tie at the back of her neck, untied the bun on the other side, and tied herself into a single ponytail in front of Wu Ke. Her image suddenly became neater. .
"Do you still need me to show you a few other little magic tricks that I know?"
she asked.
"Forget it, no need, you can go back to the labor camp."
I thought I could see something special, but since the other party didn't have it, forget it. Wu Ke waved his hand and let the girl-like witch go.
: "..."
She comes and goes as soon as she calls her. Does this person know her value as a witch? !
"Aren't you leaving?"
Seeing that the girl with green hair was a little unresponsive, Wu Ke suddenly realized the situation of this person.
"Sorry, I forgot that you may not know the way. I will ask someone to take you back."
Just when Wu Ke was about to recruit a guard to come in and take people away.
"With all due respect, didn't you hear what I was talking about about the ability to live forever?"
Suddenly interrupting his behavior, he asked.
"Uh, I heard that, but what happened?"
Wu Ke looked over curiously and answered the question.
"Don't you believe in my ability?"
"I believe."
"If you don't believe it, I can let you, eh?"
He stopped mid-sentence.
"Do you believe it?"
I have no idea about this answer.
"You believe it, and you still let me go?"
she asked.
"If I don't let you go, will you still stay?
Have you forgotten that you are a prisoner in a labor camp, or did you get in for free? "
Wu Ke asked back, and the witch fell silent when asked.
"Don't you want to have my ability to become immortal?"
After a while, I asked.
"Can you also give others the ability to live forever?"
Wu Ke was really shocked. This was an ability that he didn't even have yet.
Of course, if we talk about transforming people into non-human beings, such as beings with evil thoughts, that is another matter.
"Of course, I can see this kind of potential in you. Come to think of it, you took the initiative to find me and even said my name as a witch. Is it because you have been exposed to the power of geass?"
ask.
"Geass, I have indeed been exposed to that weak power of thought."
Wu Ke answered truthfully.
【Weak? 】
There were some ups and downs in her heart. This was the most slanderous thing about the power of kings that she had ever heard in her nearly thousand years of life.
But it doesn't matter, as long as they are mortals, even high-ranking kings will pursue the ability of immortality.
"I can give you the power of geass."
Said directly.
"Does this power have anything to do with your immortality?"
Wu Ke asked directly.
"Only those who have developed their geass ability to the extreme are qualified to obtain the ability of immortality from me."
answer.
"So, what's the price for gaining immortality?"
Wu Ke asked again, regarding the price paid, this is obviously the most important thing.
"What's the price? Fulfill a wish for me."
After a moment of silence, he answered.
"What wish?"
"When you develop your geass ability to the extreme and want to gain immortality from me, my wish will naturally come true, so you don't need to worry about this."
With a somewhat deep voice, he answered the question of the man in front of him.
"You're talking nonsense to me. This kind of place is the most important thing. You actually told me that I don't need to care. What if you are setting a trap for others?"
Although Wu Ke felt that he should not be afraid of being tricked by others in this world, it would be quite silly to jump into a hole dug by others for no reason, unless he had another purpose.
Involuntarily, Wu Ke looked at the green-haired witch with suspicion, wondering whether he should throw a mental manipulation shot at her.
Heartbeat is not as good as action. Wu Ke lost it, but surprisingly, his mental manipulation seemed to be resisted.
The man in front of me was a little cautious at first, but when I was about to explain something, my mind suddenly felt like being pricked by a needle.
A red bird pattern appeared on her forehead, repelling the spiritual power that intended to invade her consciousness.
"what have you done?"
The feeling now is similar to the feeling of peace that ordinary people have after almost encountering danger.
"It's nothing. I just planned to control your mind and make you tell the truth. However, it seems to have failed. Your resistance to mind control is pretty good, although I didn't use too much consciousness. That’s it.”
Hearing this, she took a serious look at the person in front of her. He had no geass but was able to forcefully release the power of his consciousness. There was no doubt that the person in front of her was a supernormal existence that she had never seen before in her life.
Suddenly, she noticed that a larger force of consciousness was attacking her. She was a little worried that the true self buried in her past memories would be detected. She quickly raised her hand to stop the behavior of the person opposite.
"I will honestly explain what you want to know. Please stop using your consciousness to invade my body!"
She spoke weakly, like an innocent girl being bullied by a villain.
"This is not aggression, this is mental manipulation to ensure the truth of what you say."
Wu Ke defended with a dark face, but it seemed to be about the same. He took back his consciousness and stopped mentally controlling the girl-like witch.
Feeling that the consciousness that had invaded her was taken back, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The bird mark on her forehead gradually faded and slowly disappeared. She did not dare to be the Riddler anymore, and explained her wishes clearly. .
"What, you want to die because you have lived too long?"
Wu Ke thought he heard wrongly.
"Those who live short lives have no idea of the pain of those who live forever."
explain.
"You short-lived person, are you talking about me?"
Wu Ke felt that there was something in this man's words.
"No."
She shook her head quickly, even though that was what she meant.
"I have witnessed the death of people I know well time and time again. Everything is changing, except myself. I seem to be a wandering soul, wandering in the history books of mankind.
The name witch was also what people called me out of fear when they tied me to the stake and watched me burn to death and then come back to life again.
The world is a sea of suffering, and living is a painful torture for me. Therefore, this is the reason why I seek death.
However, I can't kill myself, so I can only hope that someone can take away the mark on my body one day so that I can sleep in death forever. "
Well, he is another patient with immortality disease. In Thomas's world, he would probably be admitted to the psychiatry department for moderate immortality disease.
"It's not easy to live, but isn't it easy to die?"
Wu Ke asked a little strangely.
"The ability of geass, also known as the power of kingship, not everyone can develop this ability to the extreme. I have lived for thousands of years seeking death, but I have not succeeded yet. From this point, you can see that I How difficult it is.”
said.
"And this time, I also saw you and misunderstood you as someone who has developed your geass ability to the extreme, so I wanted to come here to try my luck."
"But in fact, I am not the owner of the so-called geass ability. Does this disappoint you?"
"It's true that I'm a little disappointed, but I see in you the possibility of developing your geass ability to the extreme."
"So, what you just said to me is actually to attract me to become a geass user, and then sound the death knell for you?"
Nodding, he said: "Yes, this kind of thing is very good, I can hope to realize my wish of eternal sleep in the future, and you can also obtain a convenient special ability before you develop your geass ability to the extreme, and After developing your geass ability to the extreme, you can still get immortality and immortality like me. There is no conspiracy or calculation in it, it is all benefits."
After a pause, he asked: "How about, make a contract with me!"
"Okay, then let me experience the so-called power of geass."
Wu Ke nodded and agreed, and saw the witch opposite suddenly stepped forward.
"What are you doing?"
A finger was pointed on the forehead, but it stopped the girl from approaching.
"Make a contract."
He blinked and replied.
"When we make a contract, we make a contract. What's going on when you come over and kiss me?"
Wu Ke didn't put down his hand, he frowned and asked.
"My former geass ability was [being loved], so after I got the C mark, the way I gave others the geass ability was to kiss. I needed to kiss others to give others the geass ability."
As she explained, her expression was very calm, and there was no sign of any lies.
"Does it have to be on the lips? Can't you kiss anywhere else?"
Wu Ke asked.
"You can kiss somewhere else."
He nodded and replied, thinking of the time in the past when he gave some children geass abilities by kissing their foreheads.
"If you can kiss anywhere else, just go straight to the mouth?"
"got used to."
"Okay, but I can't do that here. I allow you to kiss the back of my hand."
Wu Ke handed over his hand, like a lady waiting for a kiss on the hand from a gentleman.
: "..."
The man in front of me is obviously a strong man, but he behaves in such a contrasting manner.
The witch complained a little in her heart, but she still took the hand offered by the person in front of her.
"When geass is given the ability, our consciousnesses will be briefly linked. I hope you won't panic too much and make some drastic reactions."
After reminding him of what would happen if he made a contract, he leaned down and put his lips on the back of the man's hand.
As she kissed them, their consciousnesses became somewhat connected, and they were ready to guard against mental shock.
Normally, other people's memory information usually flows to her, but there are also excellent people who are endowed with geass, who can in turn obtain her memory information.
But as long as she is prepared, she can prevent the reflux of memory information from occurring.
Thinking this way, she decided to give up some of her unimportant memories and let them be obtained by the man with strong consciousness on the opposite side. She only kept the memories that she thought were the most important and did not want to be pried into by others.
Until the next moment, I found myself in a black and red world.
"Where is this?"
I was a little confused, and what I saw was a whole dark world of black and red.
"help me……"
Suddenly, a hoarse voice sounded.
"Pa~"
I felt like my leg was grabbed by something.
When she looked down, she saw a pale, bloodless man's face looking at her.
The same pale arm was grabbing her leg.
The black ground is like a quagmire, and monsters like undead are hidden under the quagmire.
With just a blink of an eye, densely packed dead faces and pale arms emerged from the black-red ground.
There were men and women, old and young, roaring and howling. Some said they were in pain, some said they were innocent, and some were cursing.
"C world? No, this is not C world. Where is this place?"
She asked the question again in this dark world, and after her voice came out, the surrounding sounds suddenly stopped.
The broken consciousness of evil thoughts discovered the existence of this foreign object in her, and all the pale faces looked towards her.
At this moment, even the well-informed witch, who had experienced a lot of hell on earth, was numbed by these gazes.
