Every noon, she leaned on Dong Jun, forgetting all the pain and worries, lost in sweet dreams.
If, if she had a mother when she was a child, perhaps, it would be like this...
The witch who had never tasted sweetness was tempted by candies and forgot everything.
So later, when she recalled it, there was always a hazy sense of unreality.
What doesn’t belong to her, what she doesn’t deserve to obtain—the beauty and happiness would always lead to emptiness and fear once she cald down.
Why was she a witch? Why wasn’t she a Magical Girl? Why did she et Lord Dong Jun in this way?
All sweet dreams eventually end; a witch is still a witch, with filthy magic power flowing through every part of her body, never able to beco a Magical Girl.
Zi Yuan shattered her dream.
When those emotionless eyes looked over, when the Sect Leader held the bloody head of her contact, Twin knew it was over.
She originally thought she would die there.
But she didn’t; Zi Yuan just glanced at her and ignored her, saying sothing to Dong Jun.
Twin didn’t know what was said, nor did she dare to think.
Just thinking of the disappointed gaze of Lord Dong Jun upon knowing the truth, thinking that the warmth of Lord Dong Jun would end here, leaving only coldness and murderous intent.
The filthy magic power in her body boiled uncontrollably, making it hard to restrain.
So, Twin ran away.
Returned to the dark sewers, mingling with those rats in the Witch Association.
This was her destination, her real life.
The undercover life at Cyan Cloud Sect was just an epheral dream, an illusion.
One day, eventually, she would be found by Zi Yuan, and under the disdainful gaze of Lord Dong Jun, be killed, be forgotten...
Yet, still, there was a small hope.
If, if she stopped killing, would Lord Dong Jun detest her a little less?
If she gave so techniques and information from the Witch Association to the Cyan Cloud Sect, could it atone for so of her mistakes?
When Yin Luo planned to summon a large number of Disaster Beasts to destroy the city, she forcibly accelerated their downgrading and leaked the information early, letting them prepare and reducing the casualties of Beihai.
Would this not earn a bit of pity and forgiveness from Lord Dong Jun?
Although no one would know these things, these trivial things accumulated to allow her a small fantasy, a fantasy that even a witch like herself could perform a small miracle.
Making Lord Dong Jun find solace in her change.
Fantastizing that if one day she were really killed by Zi Yuan, and Lord Dong Jun looked at her corpse, it wouldn’t be with disgust and indifference but with pity and a trace of sorrow.
If she could do more, if she could save more people, even being a witch, could she...
"Where is the Miracle Seed?"
Zi Yuan’s voice tore apart all her fantasies.
A miracle was ultimately not sothing a witch could touch.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t maintain her usual façade, leaving only fear.
In the days at Cyan Cloud Sect, if Dong Jun was the gentlest mother, always tolerating everything about her, then Sect Leader Zi Yuan was the strictest, cruelest father.
Always scrutinizing her every move, any flaw would lead to death.
From their first eting, witnessing firsthand how Zi Yuan hunted down the mbers of the Witch Association, almost almost, had Dong Jun not appeared in ti, even she would have suffered.
Zi Yuan had etched deep fear into her heart.
Those eyes, like beautiful jewels, even if they looked over without much emotion, made Twin tremble uncontrollably all over.
As if all the filthy magic power within her was wailing in fear!
"Sect, Sect Leader..."
She stamred, biting her teeth hard to stop herself from shaking, trying to respond.
However, the girl she had just dueled with suddenly laughed, attracting both Zi Yuan’s and Twin’s gazes towards her.
"Ha, I’m really lucky."
"I was just wondering if going all out against her would be a bit unfair."
"But if it’s you, there’s no need to hold back."
Iris held the seed in her hand, with a bit of pride, looked up at Zi Yuan, "The Sect Leader of Cyan Cloud Sect, Magical Girl Zi Yuan, I need you to co to the main bureau with to discuss the future interaction between Cyan Cloud Sect and the Disaster Strategy Bureau."
"No ti."
"Sorry, I won’t give you the right to refuse."
The Miracle Seed in Iris’s hand burst into a glaring, dazzling light!
"Even if you don’t agree, I’ll forcibly take you! Don’t worry, it won’t waste much of your ti!"
The light instantly enveloped Twin and Zi Yuan.
"Heart’s Image, unfold!"
When the glaring light of the Miracle Seed gradually faded, Twin and Zi Yuan opened their eyes to find themselves in a strange wasteland.
A vast, silent expanse, with lumpy ground like the surface of the moon, where gravity was completely different, making a person feel weightless, yet when taking a step forward, feeling the gravity beco heavier, making it impossible to move an inch.
Vast, silent, an endless wilderness.
Here, Iris always felt an overwhelming loneliness—a loneliness of an absolute strong person, at the top, cold and lonely!
So, Iris, floating in the air, smiled, spreading her arms wide:
