Moon Night_2 207: 89.
Moon Night_2 “You’re a Witch from the Witch Research Association, aren’t you?
Fisher already told beforehand, and I ca to you after resolving to do so.
What does it matter if you’re a demi-human?
As long as I like you, as long as you’re a girl, what’s impossible?”
Carolina was taken aback for a mont, then looked at Luosang with a sowhat peculiar gaze,
“Did he tell you…
I’m a Witch?”
Now it was Luosang’s turn to be puzzled; he had a vague sense of foreboding, as if so strange clues in his mind were connecting, but under Carolina’s beautiful visage, he couldn’t leap to any conclusions.
He simply continued to ask,
“…You’re not a Witch?”
“No…
well, I am, but, how to say it, I…
am a rather special kind of Witch…”
Facing Luosang’s gaze, Carolina’s cheeks turned pink and she began to explain in a flustered manner, her words becoming more jumbled as she tried to clarify, until finally, she capitulated and confessed,
“But I’m not an ordinary Witch, it’s just…
I was originally human, but then I beca…
a Witch…
Alright, alright!
I am an Artificial Witch!”
“Artificial Witch?”
Luosang mulled over the term, as if recalling that Father Deke had ntioned artificial witches created by the Witch Research Association within the Magic Barrier – but the person before him was clearly a beautiful Lady?
He seed to have fallen into a ntal quandary and after a long pause said,
“Wait, you’re saying that you beca a Witch later in life, that before becoming a Witch, you were human?”
“…Yes, before becoming human I was actually a man!
Are you satisfied now?
So if you like now, you’re no different from those Schwali Nobles.”
Carolina clenched her teeth and, facing Luosang’s sincere gaze, finally couldn’t bear it and decided not to deceive the Prince any longer.
Perhaps Fisher, that worthless man, intended for her to deceive Prince Luosang or seduce him by hiding the truth, thereby ensuring her own escape.
But after battling with herself for a while, she decided to tell him the truth: the worst that could happen was being chased again, just with the addition of two more countries…
Even so, she still did not want to deceive Prince Luosang.
Luosang looked as if he had been struck by thunder, letting go of Carolina’s hand with an expression of utter disbelief.
Many mories of his childhood surged through his mind in an instant, wrapping around him like an inescapable curse, causing him to take a step back.
Couldn’t it be that I…
The Moon Night had reached mid-sky, and the hazy moonlight fell between them, dimming the streetlight’s glow considerably, bringing an awkward and silent atmosphere.
“I’ve already rejected you once, yet you insist on approaching .
You’re a Prince of a country, you could have any beauty you want, and I’m rely a monster created in an experint!”
“Your affection will only disgust you, so give up that damn lovesick brain of yours and think more about how to benefit your people…
even just ensuring that the girls born in your kingdom don’t suffer at the hands of the trash from the Witch Research Association would make grateful!”
Carolina didn’t look at Prince Luosang; instead, she criticized his foolishness quite heartlessly,
“Just go back, and tell Fisher I appreciate his kind intentions.
This is the reward I had prepared for him in advance, you can give it to him yourself.”
Carolina pulled a folded piece of paper from her bag, which seed to be adorned with so drawing.
But Luosang just looked at Carolina and did not take the paper she offered; instead, he asked in a sowhat hoarse voice,
“What about you?
The Nali Official is investigating the Witch Research Association’s mbers, how will you escape?”
“…You just have to not ntion that I was at the scene, and as for when I might be exposed, that’s not your concern anymore.
The Witch Research Association is already burdened with accusations and probably too busy to chase after ; for the rest…
I’ll figure it out myself.
Now go.”
Carolina forcefully pushed the paper into his hand, then straightened her brown hair; it was only then that Luosang noticed she had applied light makeup and a faint lipstick.
If she was not a Lady, then was this her true nature, or was it just a disguise?
Prince Luosang wondered, watching as the elegantly dressed woman waved goodbye and turned to walk away.
The performance had ended, and the audience began to trickle out, discussing the drama as they hit the streets, slowly forming an invisible wall that separated her from him; only the moonlight above ford an illusory path through the tangible barriers, pointing straight in her direction.
Prince Luosang gripped the paper in hand but remained motionless.
Carolina’s face showed little emotion as she pulled out the paper airplane ssenger used to communicate with Fisher from her bag.
After a second’s hesitation, she tore it to shreds.
With the destruction of the Magic Emblem, its magical function disappeared completely, leaving nothing but scraps.
It was possible that Luosang would be enraged by her deception, but at that mont, Carolina preferred to believe he wouldn’t.
She suddenly rembered that during the magic incident, the Prince had asked if she was in pain; it was the first ti since her birth that soone had paid her any attention, as if for the first ti, soone understood her…
Carolina hated pain the most.
