Chapter 895: 563. Mother and Daughter

Witch Academy, God King’s Cathedral.

Lately, the Angel Witches haven’t been having good days. First, not long ago, the Judgnt Court led a raid on them, causing the Holy Child Sect of the three major factions within their church to almost completely collapse, further devastating their already declining overall strength.

But when it rains, it pours; the issues with the Holy Child Sect haven’t even settled before another wave of troubles arises.

While the entire school was joyfully participating in the Witch’s Night, the alarms of the God King’s Cathedral kept blaring.

Sothing big has happened; the seal below the cathedral of the Lord of Glory has loosened. The terrifying fluctuations of divine power made the Angel Witches sleepless, and they all started to work overti keeping vigil at the cathedral throughout the night.

Although everyone knows that this kind of guarding is actually aningless; if that fearso King of Angels truly breaks the seal, all the Angel Witches on duty together might not even withstand a single blow from him.

Yet, the Angel Witches are truly helpless; this is already the limit of what they can do.

Their clan has truly fallen on hard tis.

Those oldest and strongest Angel Witches were originally the earliest followers of the God King. They’ve either always been stationed at the God King’s Divine Realm or retired early and secluded themselves from worldly matters.

During the Dragon King Era, the Angel Witches misjudged the situation and relied too much on the God King’s prestige, only to be purged by the Dragon King almost to the point of losing the God King Sect entirely. In the end, it was the Dragon King who showed rcy and left them this ancestral court, otherwise, they still paid quite a heavy price.

For instance, the elite Angel Witches at the ti were scattered and sent to the front lines to guard the borders. Until special amnesty was given, they were not allowed to return to the God King Sect.

Then ca the Era of the Demon Lord. Although the Demon Lord did not suppress them further, he even offered them considerable support. Yet, due to the previous exile by the Dragon King, the Angel Witch clan experienced a direct talent gap, leading to leaderless chaos.

Everyone is eager to achieve the revival of their race, but without a strong leader to suppress the internal unrest, the more urgent the desire, the more chaotic they beco. After all, each believes themselves to be the true leader of revival, and none will yield to another.

Thus, various factions within the sect attack one another, causing severe internal strife and a loss of unity. This led many excellent young Angel Witches to beco fed up with the poisonous atmosphere and leave the ancestral court to develop individually outside.

In this way, the once mighty ancestral court of the Angel Witch clan, one of the Three Great Royal Families, now finds itself with scarcely a few mbers remaining.

Not to ntion dealing with the Lord of Glory breaking through the seal; even the visiting Angel Delegation causes them considerable apprehension.

After all, the leader of the Angel Delegation, that Ten-Winged Archangel Sariel, is truly intimidating. He is an existence older than even the God King, having served by the Lord of Glory’s side for countless years before the God King’s birth.

In the entire Western Universe, Sariel is one of the oldest beings.

And what about the Angel Witches? Even though the Academy Head, who is currently the Pope of the God King Sect, is a Sage, there are differences between Sages. The Academy Head is a newly ascended Sage from the Era of the Demon Lord and truly pales in comparison to this veteran Sariel.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that, without support, Sariel alone could potentially single-handedly sweep through the entire Angel Witch ancestral court.

In such a precarious situation both internally and externally, the Angel Witches today can only behave like frightened paper tigers, pretending to ‘strengthen vigilance’ while fluffing their fur to intimidate uninford outsiders, with nothing else substantial they can do.

A few weeks ago, they at least had the ‘God King’s Protection Curse’ as a trump card, but now, besides putting on a facade, they truly have nothing else.

“Mother Superior, won’t we really seek aid from the God King?”

Inside the cathedral, Director of Studies Rosalind approached a dignified old lady with an elegant temperant and asked with so concern.

This old lady is the last pride of the Angel Witch clan, the current Academy Head of the Witch Academy, and the third seat of the Council of Sages, Priscilla.

Throughout the Era of the Demon Lord to this day, more than twenty thousand years, there have been nine newly ascended Witch Sages, including 3 Demon Witches, 4 Dragon Witches, 1 Sea Clan Witch, and 1 Angel Witch.

Priscilla is the last remaining Angel Witch Sage, once seen as the hope for the revival of the Angel Witch clan. But clearly, even a Sage as strong as she finds herself unable to support the current ss and scattered situation of the Angel Witch clan alone.

While a Great Witch can remain eternally youthful and immortal, the last Sage of the Angel Witch clan appears as an elderly woman, indicating that her heart has ultimately beco weary.

The various power struggles within the God King Sect over the years, the decline of the family under her watch, the pressure of guilt towards her ancestors, coupled with the accident involving her eldest daughter, whom she once pinned high hopes on, over a decade ago, have ultimately caused severe wear and tear to the heart of this newly ascended Sage.
