Volume 2: Witch Kingdom Arc
Chapter 17: Betrayal
Doris looked at Luo Yuxi, her predatory gaze undisguised.
“Little cutie, two choices: come back with me willingly, or I’ll take you back by force~”
“Can I choose neither…?”
Doris simply smiled, her crimson eyes gleaming with madness. Luo Yuxi quickly hid behind Yun Keke and Yu Keke. Although hiding behind lolis was embarrassing, it was better than being captured.
“If you want to take big sister, you’ll have to go through me!”
“If that’s what you want, it’ll just take a little longer~”
[Unique Magic: Submersion]
Doris attacked, and Yun Keke felt the familiar sensation of sinking into a dark quagmire, her senses dulled. But Doris, with her sharp combat instincts, also sensed Yu Keke’s attack from behind.
“Little Yun!”
“I know, leave the rest to me!”
[Unique Magic: Burial]
Yun Keke raised her hands, aiming at Doris. Yu Keke teleported a safe distance away. Doris, her senses blocked, was unaware of what was happening.
“Big sister belongs to Little Yu and me! You can’t have her!”
Yun Keke slammed her hands together, and a powerful force erupted, flattening the surrounding forest, even the cabin’s foundation was gone.
“Did I get her…?”
“Little Yun, watch out!”
Yun Keke, seeing the flattened forest and sensing no trace of Doris, was about to relax when she heard Yu Keke’s warning. She shielded her chest with magic just as Doris appeared before her and punched her, the force of the blow sending shockwaves through her body.
“Not bad, but I was aiming for a one-hit KO…”
Yun Keke was sent flying, crashing into the ground. Her small body seemed fragile and helpless. Luo Yuxi, ignoring Ling Shuang, rushed over and used her divine power to protect Yun Keke.
[Divine Art: Heal]
“So… so much blood! Little Yun, don’t move!”
“Her presence had vanished, why…?”
Yun Keke struggled to her feet, looking at Doris in disbelief. They were both 2nd Order, but the difference in their power was overwhelming. Last time, she had needed the help of three bishops to fight Doris to a draw.
“Nice magic, instantly compressing everything within a certain area. If I hadn’t dodged, I would be flat as a pancake~”
Doris played with a strand of her hair, seemingly unfazed, as if the fight had been a mere warm-up.
“I was going to kill you both, but I’ve changed my mind. I’ll take you alive~”
As Doris spoke, a massive beam of light engulfed her, creating a huge crater in the forest. Yu Keke stood at the edge.
[Super-Tier Light Magic: Holy Light Descent]
“With such a wide range, she shouldn’t be able to—”
“It’s rude to interrupt~”
“!!!”
Yu Keke turned and saw Doris standing behind her, less than ten meters away. The beam of light had a range of several kilometers, yet Doris had casually walked behind her.
“How…?”
“I just had to leave the area of effect before you activated the spell~”
Doris walked towards Yu Keke, but as she took a step, she was bound by invisible chains. Yu Keke had set a trap.
“Now I’ve got you, die…”
[Unique Magic: Burial]
“Not good…”
Doris panicked as a square beam of light appeared beneath her, the space around her compressing. Yu Keke quickly retreated. Doris’s clothes were torn, even her stockings were ripped.
“Taking you alive will be more troublesome than I thought…”
Doris’s aura turned blood red, as if the entire space was being dyed. Yun Keke, healed by Luo Yuxi, had recovered and rushed to Yu Keke’s side.
“I’ll cripple your magic circuits and tie you to a pole, making you watch as I enjoy Luo Yuxi’s body~”
“Arrogant witch…”
A red domain expanded from Doris, like a drop of ink in water, while Yun Keke and Yu Keke, holding hands, their white and purple figures like flowers in a sea of blood, stood their ground.
“The Twin Witches are indeed troublesome together, but I’m not afraid~”
Yun Keke and Yu Keke exchanged glances, their magic power surging, pushing back against the red domain. Doris realized she couldn’t win against both of them and turned to the black-robed witch.
“Envy, how long are you going to watch?!”
Her words heightened the tension. Yun Keke and Yu Keke held each other’s hands tighter. Doris was already difficult enough, let alone another Deadly Sin Witch.
“Stop watching, just hold one of them back…”
Doris thought the black-robed girl was finally going to help, and she turned to the lolis, her arrogance returning.
“Once I capture you two, I’ll think of a fitting punishment. Making you watch as your most precious thing is destroyed seems like a good start~”
Doris gathered her magic power. Yun Keke and Yu Keke were on guard. Suddenly, a gasp echoed through the air. Doris looked down in disbelief at the hand piercing her chest from behind.
“Envy… you…”
