TWDR - Chapter 115

Anna sighed deeply and flicked off the laundry. As she hung the laundry on the clothesline, she saw something pass by in the sky.

It was the form of a person with black wings.

"Huh!"

The only one with such a shape is a winged witch. Could it be that Miss Mori is back?

The black human figure settled on the roof of the Grand Duke's residence. Anna packed all the laundry and entered the mansion.

As she was hurriedly climbing the long circular staircase to the rooftop, she made eye contact with a dark-haired woman who was leisurely descending the stairs.

"Uh..."

She is not our Miss Mori. Miss Mori didn't look so spicy. It's not that short and curly.

'With black hair. Is she a witch?'

Then Anna thought she had heard of it. She is a witch with short curly hair. Wasn't she the witch who specialized in stealth who tried to kill His Highness, our Grand Duke?

You can't do anything without orbs.

Anna's expression wrinkled in disappointment. Miss Mori didn't come, and some miscellaneous things came.

"Hey, witch. Where do you think you are? Turn off quickly before the knights are called."

"Shhh, I'm just here to give you this, so can you be quiet?"

Lace held out a large bag. Anna received it in a daze. The Inside was filled with grass.

"Why are you giving this all of a sudden?"

"A witch who knows morality will repay her benefactor for her kindness. Now that Gremory has saved me and given me a new life, I want to help Gremory's people as well."

"So where are these plants used?"

"It's all herbs. They are grown in my village, and I brought some of them. Green grass is for energy recovery. The blue flower is an all-purpose antidote. Purple flowers are good for your hair."

Anna peeked into the purple flower.

'Does His Highness like this? I heard that he is very interested in hair these days... Ugh, no matter what, the witch gave me something stingy.'

Anna returned the bag to Lace.

"Thank you in my heart, but I will refuse. It's a bit of a shame to accept what a witch like you gave me."

"Then take it away. Feed them as animal food."

Lace turned around without hesitation. Then she spread her wings over the window and flew away.

"What's going on?"

Anna went down the stairs with a bag that smelled of fragrant grass. She was thinking about whether it would be right to convey this to His Highness the Grand Duke.

'No. I don't need to report such a trivial matter to someone so upset.'

Anna decided to check if there was a problem with the herbs first. If there is a problem, it will not be too late to report it then.

Anna first headed to the convent. If she is a convent director who is knowledgeable about herbs, she will be able to recognize the identity of these grasses.

The convent's face brightened when he saw the herbs.

"Oh, where did you get these precious herbs? It's hard to raise, so you can't get it even if you pay a lot of money! And it's so fresh."

"Don't you see anything strange?"

"Not at all. In the first place, you can't do anything strange with these herbs. It's so fragile that if you do even the slightest weird thing, it'll wither."

"Really? Thank you for checking."

First of all, it was confirmed that it was safe by experts. Even so, she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

While she was thinking about what to do with this grazing, she heard a goat crying from somewhere. When she looked back, she saw a black goat leisurely walking around the convent.

The convent ran to the black goat.

"Ah, Louis has escaped the paddock again. The paddock must be large enough, but I don't know why he keeps escaping and coming here. Louis! Let's go back quickly!"

At that time, the convent was about to drag the black goat by the front paws. She saw several emergency patients coming in the distance.

"Oh my God, where did I have another accident? Anna, I'm sorry, can you give me a hand?"

"Yes! Let's go together!"

Anna roughly hung the herb bag on the fence and ran after the abbess.

And the black goat that was snooping around...

Meech?

When it found the herb bag, it quickly poked its face. The black goat, rummaging through the bag with its snout, munched and swallowed the luscious herbs.

And an hour later.

Anna, who helped treat an emergency patient, became a novice. She was surprised when she came back to get a bag of herbs. This was because there were fewer than half of the herbs left.

Anna's eyes turned to the black goat lying nearby. The goat was still eating the filth sparingly, whether the herbs suited his taste. The new herb stem was sticking out from its lips.

"... Even if something strange happens to you, I can't take responsibility."

Anna let go of the black goat and hurriedly left. Carrying a lightweight bag of herbs on her shoulder.

Gremory lay down on a high rocky mountain and admired the scenery. The bottom of the mountain was a sea of fire, and the roaring sound could be heard endlessly. Queen Kona had been on a rampage trying to beat Gremory's alter ego for two months.

Alice lay down next to Gremory. While sucking on the unknown purple juice with a straw.

"Oh ho, Kona's movements have slowed down. She's going to get tired of going out soon."

"Yes."

"By the way, did Hamburton anticipate this situation and give you a brooch?"

"That's right. After all, he is also a member of the imperial family, so he must have made that choice using his imperial abilities. I don't know what kind of supernatural power he used."

"Right? Anyway, sister, would you like to drink this juice? It's made by squeezing the juice from a demon scarab, and it's really delicious."

"Yes, you can drink it."

Gremory, disgusted, clicked her tongue. As she did so, she rummaged through the magic tools in Serietti's jewelry box.

"Hey, Alice."

"Yes, sister."

"Do you remember that time? When I forcibly spread the plague in the human world."

"Ah, of course I remember. What a mess the demon world was at that time."

"I remember that the witches stole Serietti's magic tools and created a gap leading to the human world."

"Oh, are you planning to use that magic tool to return to the human world? It's useless."

"Why?"

Alice replied, taking a cool sip of the demonic scarab juice.

"The gap opened by that magic tool is too narrow. Magic can pass through, but demons can't enter."

"Demons can't enter? Then you can't even enter the alter ego?"

"Of course you can't go in."

"Then how did Serietti send his alter ego to the human world? Of course, I thought she would have sent it using that magic tool."

"Hmm. How did you send your alter ego to the human world?"

While the two witches were worried, a scream was heard from somewhere.

Gremory looked down at the side where she could hear the screams. A low-ranking witch was stranded at the bottom of the rocky mountain, fleeing from the flames.

"I don't want to die like this! Ugh!"

Whew, Gremory sighed, and clicked her tongue at the poor sentient being. The low-ranking witch was a little younger than Anna.

Gremory snapped her fingers. Then the wind picked up and split the flames, leaving a way for the lowly witch to escape.

"Huh? What is it? I just felt the magic? Who cares! Run away for now!"

The low-level witch hurriedly climbed the rocky mountain along the road.

The low-ranking witch who saw Gremory from the top of the rocky mountain panicked for a moment, then bowed her head.

"You cleared the way, right? I appreciate it! I will serve you very much in the future!"

Gremory looked down at the small witch and rolled her head. This witch seems to be useful for some reason.

"Hey, you."

"Yes! Sister!"

"You're a low-level witch, so it's easy to be summoned to the human world, right?"

"Yes! I am summoned three times a month! I don't have the strength to grant their wish, so I am kicked out to the demon realm three times a month!"

"Anyway, you get summoned often. Next time you are summoned, don't return to the demon world again."

"Yes... I have nowhere to go unless it's the demon world."

The witch, who was lying on the ground, raised her head and opened her eyes.

"Just settle in the human world and live like a human. Don't pretend to grant human wishes, and don't do anything that destroys the soul, and don't eat the misfortune of others."

"That... Is that possible?"

The low-level witch's voice trembled. There was only one reason why low-level witches had harassed humans. To bring the delicacy of human misfortune to high-ranking witches who play and eat.

However, the best witch was telling her to stop all of this.

"It's possible. Now, the low-level witches are not slaves to the high-level witches. The higher-level witches who pampered the low-ranking witches have already gone to the other world, haven't they?"

"That's right."

"Now dream of freedom. 200 years is enough, so it's okay now."

"The law? What kind of law?"

"If you're summoned to the human world next time... Go to the Grand Duke."

Suddenly, an explosion was heard from the side of the connection.

"Yes? What kind of ball are you looking for? I didn't hear it properly... Ugh!"

"Hey, run away quickly! Kona is angry!"

"Yes! Ugh!"

The ground shook. The lowly witch fled, and Gremory spread her wings and flew towards Kona.
