Release that Witch

52. Chapter 52 Fire of Heart (on)

    Roland knocked on the door and heard the answer from Nightingale before pushing the door into the room.

    The curtains are hung in the room, and the windows are only ventilated in the morning and evening. At other times, they are closed for warmth and shading.

    The only light source came from the two candlesticks at the end of the bed, and the candle burned quietly, projecting the two shades of shadow in the room.

    He walked over to the bed and looked at the woman buried in a soft velvet pillow and bedding, still closed eyes, and sighed softly.

    “Is the situation of the border defense okay?”Nightingale handed him a cup of warm water.

    “Everything is going well,” Roland snorted and handed the cup back to her. “From that day on, I haven’t met a large group of Evil Beast. After the injured militia team returned to the team, everyone’s fighting enthusiasm became…Some are up. ”

    “Where is the wall damaged?”

    “Karl used the rolling wood to move the Evil Beast Hybrid’s carapace to the break and hang it up with a winch and a wooden frame, making it part of the wall,” Roland knew that Nightingale wanted to distract himself. Lest you worry too much. But as soon as he stepped into the room, all his consciousness would not help but gather him into the sleeping woman on the bed.

    If we say that the last large-scale invasion of Evil Beast can still achieve a proud victory, the biggest hero is no doubt that Anna, if she did not use the flame to block the gap, the consequences are simply unimaginable.

    However, after she fainted in her arms, she never woke up.

    “It’s been a week,” Roland whispered.

    In theory, if a person is in a coma, do not eat or drink for a week, and there is no external direct supply of nutrients (such as injection), the body function will fall into exhaustion, and the brain will gradually die in shock. But Anna didn’t have any signs of weakness – at least a lot better than when she first fell. Her cheeks are rosy, her breathing is steady, and her hands can be felt on the forehead. Everything shows that Anna is in a healthy state, just…Can’t wake up.

    “I was also the first to encounter such a situation,” Nightingale, standing aside, shook her head. “The magic power in her body was consumed in that battle, but now it has become saturated, even more intense than ever.” If I didn’t make a mistake, midnight is her coming-of-age day. ”

    “Do you mean that she will be in an adulthood in a coma?”

    “No, she will die in a coma,” Nightingale bluntly said. “The pain of the day of adulthood must be overcome with will. Once the resistance is abandoned, the magic power of the backlash will irreversibly destroy the body of the witch.”

    Roland moved a chair and sat down at the bed. “But I remember you said that when the demonic bite, no matter how painful, the consciousness will always stay awake, either pass this level or choose to end life.”

    “It is true. Someone in the Cooperation Association wanted to use the coma to get through the demonic bite. It is not a coming-of-age day…It’s just an annual torture,” Nightingale hesitated, continuing. “She relied on alchemy drugs to make herself sleepy, but that didn’t make sense… when she was magic power backlash, she woke up instantly and lost her resistance. ability. ”

    “Is this pain not increasing gradually?”

    “No, when that moment comes, the pain will come like Thunder, but how long it lasts will vary from person to person. My sister is not strong enough, just…”Her voice is low.

    Roland understands what she means. This kind of judgment with unknown time limit is a kind of torture. I don’t know how long I have been persisting. I don’t know how long I have to persist. It is easy to let the lonely boat drifting in the rough sea. People give up the desire to survive.

    In silence, he felt a hand pressed on his shoulder.

    “In the years when I was displaced, I have seen too many deaths. The witches are treated like animals, hanged, burned, or killed by noble as a piece of fun. Fortunately, the escaped witch can only stay away from the crowd and live a life of isolation. The Holy Mountain, where I don’t know where it is, is just the luxury that they can’t reach. “Nightingale’s voice is softer than ever.” But Anna is different, except for the sisters of the Operations Association, I saw someone for the first time. Witch is so concerned. She is needed by people, valued, and treated as a normal person…His Royal Highness, even if Anna failed to survive the adulthood, she had already found her own Holy Mountain. ”

    But this was not the end he hoped for, and Roland closed his eyes and recalled the scene when she met her.

    She was naked and barefoot, her clothes were ruined, she was in a cage, but she was not afraid of her face. Her eyes were like a lake that had never been polluted, clear and calm.

    She is a flame, but she does not escape like a flame.

    The picture is rotated one by one, such as a lantern.

    “I have satisfied your curiosity, adults, can you kill me now?”

    “I never used it to hurt others.”

    “I just want to stay with my Highness, that’s all.”

    “Demonic bite can’t kill me, I will beat it.”

    “Are you dreaming? I’m not going anywhere.

……

    Roland suppressed the raging thoughts and whispered, “I will accompany her to the last moment.”

    “Me too, and…Thank you.”

    After dinner, Nana also came, and she heard that Anna was about to pass the adulthood, and she insisted on staying. Roland had to arrange a room on the second floor for the overnight stay with Tigu Pine.

    In this way, Roland and the two witches sat around the bed like this, waiting quietly for midnight.

    For Nightingale and Nana, they also suffer from demonic bite this winter. Fortunately, everyone’s awakening day is not the same. Otherwise, the three witches will be tested at the same time. Roland estimates that he can’t do it. Then forcefully stay calm and stay in the room.

    There is no clock tower in the small town, and in the room of the Candlelight twilight, the passage of time becomes blurred. The cold wind blew the window, and from time to time I could hear the whistling sound as the airflow swept through the window. Just as Roland felt a little tired and hit her heart, Nightingale suddenly said: “Begin.”

    Only she could see that the magic power in Anna began to become uneasy. The green flames became more and more intense, the central part was turned from incandescent, and the arrogant magic power gathered to the center, like what was pulled. It struggles and rolls, but it doesn’t help.

    Roland couldn’t see the changes, but he also noticed something wrong.

    The flame at the top of the candle swayed, and there was no wind in the room. The light from the flames grew darker, as if it were being swallowed by the surrounding shadows, and then the color of the flame tip changed–the orange-red flare turned into a green flame.

    He looked at the woman in the bed, Anna was still asleep, her face did not change, as if it had nothing to do with her.

    At this point, the Candlelight was almost completely hidden – not the flame was extinguished, but the green flame was consuming the orange-red part little by little until the light completely disappeared and everyone fell into the darkness.

    But soon, the fire re-lighted up. Only this time, the flame on the candlestick turned into pure green. The three people are under a green light, and they have big eyes and narrow eyes. It is a bit difficult to understand what this is.

    At this time, Anna’s screams pulled the eyes of the three people back to her.

    She slowly opened her eyes.

    “Anna…”Roland stunned, she woke up?

    The woman blinked and smiled at him, then extended her right hand, spread her hand and handed it to the prince.

    A green fire jumped out of the palm and quietly burned.

    Somehow, Roland felt that he understood what the other person meant. He hesitant for a moment, slowly inserting his fingers into the flame, the expected burning sensation did not come, and some, just like the softness and warmth wrapped by warm water.
