Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Chapter 440 Triss's Decision

"It's okay, I only protect you to get promoted smoothly, and saving people is not within the scope of my work."

Louise was leaning against a big tree with dense branches. Hearing this, she couldn't help but glanced at the "stranger" who appeared beside her.

In terms of appearance, the person in front of him is indeed a stranger, and his appearance is really unflattering, but Louise knows the true identity of this person, because this is a helper she invited, " A member of the Twilight Hermit Society, a demigod craftsman, Russell... that is, Rebecca's grandfather.

On a deeper level, this is just a clone made by Russell. After all, his identity as a demigod is still unknown to outsiders.

"Alchemist" is good at this, as long as you have enough materials, you can make anything!

Louise plans to take this opportunity to advance to Sequence Five, but she knows that there is a high probability that she will be discovered by "Desperate Nightingale" Panatia, and she will be helpless in the promotion process, so she needs a guard ... If you use a more elegant word to describe it, then you can call it "Guardian".

She even considered whether to ask Bernadette for help, but unfortunately, the latter had something to leave Backlund, so Russell is not bad!

Moreover, this "old naughty boy" type of person was easy to talk to, not to mention that she had to help him take care of his granddaughter, so it was easy for Louise to ask him to help.

Rescuing Klein just now seemed to be just a matter of Russell's convenience, but in fact, it was specifically entrusted by Louise before, otherwise Russell would not take the initiative to meddle in his own business.

Louise smiled lightly and promised:

"I'll help Rebecca get promoted."

Russell nodded in satisfaction, then his expression became a little dignified, and he said seriously:

"You only said that you wanted to be promoted, but you never said that you would encounter such a dangerous situation!"

"The meteorite fell from the sky just now was definitely done on purpose, and the person who can cause this situation is definitely not an ordinary demigod."

Still smiling, Louise said:

"Don't worry, that meteorite didn't come for us either. I only have one goal of being promoted to 'Witch of Pain' today, and nothing else has anything to do with me."

It has nothing to do with me and asked me to save people... Russell muttered something in a low voice, then suddenly turned his head to look at the path ahead, and said:

"somebody is coming."

Before he finished speaking, his figure disappeared.

Louise straightened up, with her hands behind her back, and watched with a smile on a woman with a slightly sad expression at the end of the path.

It was Triss, she really chose this escape route that had been planned long ago.

"You're finally here." Louise greeted with a smile.

Triss was surprised at first, and then quickly looked around, but did not find the figure of "Desperate Nightingale" Panatia. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, and said:

"Why are you here?"

Louise spread her hands and said, "Obviously, I'm waiting for you."

"What are you waiting for me?" Triss asked.

Louise replied as a matter of course: "Fulfill the promise between us!"

Triss shook her head: "I don't understand."

"Hey, you won't be overwhelmed by the joy of successfully escaping from Prince Edsac's side!"

When Louise said this, she kept paying attention to Triss's expression. The latter couldn't help frowning, and there were some complicated expressions on her face.

There was probably some guessing in her heart, Louise continued:

"You won't forget our promise, right? When you escape from birth, you will give me the ring on your hand."

Triss immediately retorted: "Our promise was completely invalidated the moment Pannadia appeared."

Louise put on a look of sudden realization, let out a long "oh", and said:

"So that's the case, but you didn't notify me? I thought our promise was still valid!"

Triss didn't want to waste time here, she wanted to get out of the control of the person behind her as soon as possible, so she said:

"Now that you know, I can go."

"Of course... no." Louise said in a drawn out voice.

This behavior that seemed to be delaying time made Triss feel a little uneasy. She secretly raised her vigilance and issued an ultimatum:

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Louise suppressed the smile on the corner of her mouth, and said unquestionably:

"There are two options before you. Give me that ring, or fight with me. If you win, you can leave here."

"However, what I want to remind you is that if the 'Madame of Despair' will come suddenly during our battle, do you think she will arrest you? Or will she reward me?"

Triss' face became more and more ugly. She is now a traitor. If Panatia finds out, the consequences will definitely be miserable, but Louise's way of messing around is really infuriating!

No, no, wait... Louise's personality is not so bad, and her sense of belonging to the "Witch Sect" is not even much higher than her own. How could she suddenly become so loyal today?

For some reason, she is particularly obsessed with the ring on her hand, but at this moment, she seems to be delaying time, with a look of confidence... Triss thought of many things for a while, and quickly made a decision. A decision was made.

She took a deep look at Louise, and at the same time took off the sapphire ring on the little finger of her left hand, and threw it over without hesitation.

Afterwards, Triss turned and left completely, and the figure disappeared quickly, without any obstruction as expected.

Louise couldn't help being a little stunned, she wanted to chat with Triss for a while, who knew that the latter was so decisive? This is a "0" level sealed item! Don't feel bad at all?

What Louise didn't know was that Triss was already mentally prepared to hand over the ring to her, and the latter's thoughts were not limited to this.

If you wear this ring with you, there is a risk of being tracked by the "Witch Sect", and Triss did not teach Louise the method of blocking tracking, and she also has the intention of using the latter as a bait.

This is related to a problem of poor information. The information that the two people know does not communicate with each other, or is very different.

Louise didn't fancy the extraordinary ability of the ring, nor did she want to keep it for a long time, but just used it as a "tool" that would be destroyed when it was used up, and she didn't feel bad at all.

However, there is still some fear that should be there. She didn't even reach out to pick it up, but released an invisible filament to wrap around the ring, and put it in a wooden box that she carried with her without her hands.

This wooden box also contains the "Fate Charm" that Will Auceptin gave to him, which can temporarily block the sight of the "Original Witch".

This is also the reason why Louise deliberately dragged the topic away to delay the time. The later she got the ring, the lower the risk would be, but it would not affect the final result.

After Triss left, Russell reappeared on the side, and he said with a serious face:

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Louise put away the wooden box, turned around and smiled slightly:

"My goal has never changed, it's just a smooth promotion to Sequence Five."

"But that ring..." Russell wanted to say something more, but suddenly stopped, because he discovered a large-scale spiritual fluctuation.

The direction is in the East District of Backlund.
