Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 197 Closing the Net
"How's the progress with Miss Judgment?"

Alger, who had short dark blue hair, turned around and asked Audrey. After becoming the "King of the Sea", he no longer had to choose his words when talking to "Justice" and "Hermit". He could say whatever he wanted.

"She has already controlled Lust in Trier. Her ability is very effective against Beyonders who like to hide their identities."

Audrey lifted her golden hair from her ears, not caring about the Hanged Man's words. She continued to explain in a soothing tone: "According to the information given to me by the Church of Mother Earth, they have expelled the Psychological Alchemy Society from all of Feynetport, including Miss Laziness who is in charge of Feynetport City. All signs indicate that Miss Laziness and Miss Greed should be in Saint Milon."

“That’s why we’re here now.”

Cattleya tactfully interrupted Audrey's intention to continue explaining, "Perhaps this is what Emperor Roselle said, 'The priest can escape, but the church cannot.'"

“I have to say, although what Emperor Roselle said sounds a bit strange, it is still very appropriate in a sense.”

Alger scratched his short, slightly curly blue hair and asked, "When do we start?"

Audrey raised her hand slightly to stop Alger, then cast her eyes towards the dusky sea and said loudly, "Sir, you should have heard it, right? We have no intention of offending the Feysac Empire. We are only here on behalf of the Kingdom and the Church to capture the suspects in the 'Falling Angel' incident. Please give us a favor."

A moment later, a silver light suddenly exploded from the sparkling sea, piercing the dark night sky, and transformed into a human form and flashed to the bow of the Future. Audrey's spiritual intuition told her that the person who came was the demigod "Silver Knight" whom she had fought once outside Backlund.

"It's you?..." The silver knight's expression became complicated for a moment, but then he regained his composure. Although three of the four were at the same level as him, this was the capital of Feysac after all, with more than one demigod and various sealed objects. If he attacked head-on, he would not be weaker than anyone here.

"...The Church of the God of War will always monitor your every move."

The silver knight did not insist in the end, but only asked to monitor the other party's actions at any time to prevent the other party from causing trouble in the capital. After all, the fall of the angel had a huge impact, and the War God Church, without the God of War, was eager to clear its suspicion. It did not just obey the request of the Tarot Club members representing the victorious country, but also had to consider it carefully.

"Thank you for your understanding."

Audrey lifted her skirt slightly and saluted the other party, then she took a deep breath and closed her eyes slightly. When she opened them again, there were ferocious golden pupils in her eye sockets. A huge range of mental plague spread out, colorful, infecting the common dreams of everyone in Saint Milon like mold!
"you wanna die?"

Seeing that Audrey had released such a large-scale lethal mental plague among the crowd, the Silver Knight thought that she had ill intentions, and immediately transformed himself into a silver-white sword that ignored defense, and was about to bloom in Audrey's body and cut her into pieces.

However, the silver-white sword light pierced through Audrey's body without tearing her flesh, but exploded and scattered on the spot, as if the opponent had never existed from the beginning to the end.

Cattleya's hands were shining with strange light, and an illusory brocade stretched out from her hands, wrapping Audrey in the middle.

The fairy tale magic "The Emperor's New Clothes" can turn the target into an object that does not exist at all, so that it is not affected by any trauma.

At the same time, two embarrassed figures suddenly jumped out of thin air in the dream world that was already covered with colorful mold spots. Although there were no mold spots on their bodies, judging from the scales that pierced their skin, the mental plague had caused them considerable damage.

After "Laziness" and "Greed" left the ocean of collective subconsciousness, the spiritual plague that spread throughout the city disappeared out of thin air. The residents didn't even know what it meant, as if it itself was a dream.

The ability of the Dream Weaver is to weave dreams that are almost real. She can make everyone see different scenes in the dream. At the same time, in the dream, if the other party thinks that they have suffered some kind of damage, then they will suffer the same damage in reality. Although it will not directly act on the physical level, it is enough to scare the other party crazy or even scared to death.

However, the residents who did not know what the colorful mold was did not think that it would cause any harm to them, so even if they came into contact with the mental plague in their dreams, it would not cause any substantial harm. The only ones who responded to this were the two reviewers of the Psychological Alchemy Society.

Audrey ignored the Silver Knight who had withdrawn his attack in embarrassment after realizing something was wrong. Instead, she flew directly from the boat, with smooth egg white dragon wings growing from her back. She then let out a dragon roar that contained dozens of mystical meanings.

As the dragon roared, the collective subconscious sea of ​​the crowd was blocked by an invisible barrier, which prevented the two demigods from sending messages or notifying other members of the Psychological Alchemy Society by any means. This blockade originated from the fear in the hearts of "laziness" and "greed", so it was effective enough.

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the two demigods had no choice but to turn back and both activated the mythical creature form, turning into a deep red and a light blue mind dragon. The sound of violent wind emerged from around them, as if it came from reality, but also seemed to come from fantasy.

They blew in all directions with a certain will, and all the creatures caught in it inevitably showed various abnormal conditions, some stood still and trembled, some ran away blindly and irrationally, some lost control of their bowels and bladder, their legs fell limply, some fainted and fell into a coma, some showed fanatical expressions and became the dragon's followers.

Afterwards, they disappeared mysteriously, attempting to use psychological invisibility to flee the area and escape capture by the Tarot Club members.

If it were normal times, Audrey would have been able to unravel the mystery and play hide-and-seek with them, but there was no need to do so now. The second fairytale magic of "Hermit" Cattleya, "The Source of Peach Blossoms", had also been released, covering the entire sea area.

Although no one saw it, Audrey could feel that the invisible creature that was fleeing in all directions suddenly stopped, blocked by a peach forest with lush vegetation and blooming flowers, and separated by the mountain at the end of the water source in the forest. It could only try to poke its way out from a small cave.

Then, Alger threw the violently surging blue-green lightning in his hand towards the chaotic and crazy sea.
