Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 202 Sophie's Little Problem
"Small question...what do you mean?"

Sophie asked, confused.

"You should know... don't always ask me. We are using the same body. You can feel what I can feel." The consciousness that controlled Sophie's body responded.

"If you calm down and feel it, you will be able to sense the undisguised malice of those people."

Sophie gradually calmed down after hearing this, and at this moment she found that the world had changed: just like a blind person regaining sight, the new senses that appeared out of nowhere made the whole world look brand new. It was not that she saw things that she had not seen before, but that she understood everything around her in a new way of perception that could not be simply summarized as "seeing".

Then, she felt some unique information. Although it was hard to describe, she subconsciously took precautions against that aura. The voice in her mind didn't say anything, but she knew that those malicious clusters represented humans.

"Who are they?" Sophie asked quickly.

"The Esco family - that seems to be their name." The voice made a listening gesture, and then Sophie found that she had heard the corresponding whispers at the stairs. "Your mothers don't know enough about this gang - otherwise, they would never leave you here alone, even for a short while."

"…Then, will you help me? Just let me get to Sister Anne's room. Mother Adele said she will take good care of me."

Sophie asked nervously.

"Haha, of course not." The voice replied with a smile, "At least the guys here now can't pose any threat to you, so there's no need to go there. Although the Beyonder characteristics remaining in your body are only at the Sequence 5 level, it's enough to deal with the people outside."

"Unlike the half-crazy Matafarli, I will ensure the safety of the host's life, but as for how to ensure it, that is my own business."

She spread her hands nonchalantly. Meanwhile, Sophie heard footsteps gradually stopping at the door.

"Who are you and why are you so obsessed with me?"

Sophie was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, and finally she asked this question.

"Good question... Unfortunately, I can't give you a good answer." The little girl's figure formed by blood in Sophie's spiritual world curled her lips slightly, as if she was smiling.

"The angels of the demonic path are very different from other angels. Their spiritual characteristics remain in any part of their bodies. If they wish, they can make a drop of ordinary blood have the same status as their original body. Unless they are completely annihilated, they will hardly die."

"That's why, even though our father has been controlled by the Mother Tree of Desire for a long time, he is still alive and well—he's just a little bit insane because he gave birth to so many children for the Mother Tree of Desire."

"But this makes me very distressed. There are so many brothers and sisters who all want to escape. They are fighting for the opportunity to connect to the real world, and they dare not make too much noise to attract the Mother Tree of Desire. It's really too troublesome. You know, we don't have much dedication. If someone feels that there is no hope of escaping, they will not hesitate to use self-destruction or other means to attract the Mother Tree and let everyone die together."

Sophie discovered that the speed at which the two communicated was much faster than in reality. After the bloody figure said so many words, Sophie's body only took a step forward.

"Anyway, Matafari and I killed almost all of our brothers and sisters - some of them couldn't even be identified as brothers or sisters - and in the end, the two of us ended things."

"Matafarli thought He had killed me, and for this He even used his connections when he was a lackey of the Church of Storms to find other angels to try to weaken me across the starry sky. I have to say that the people He found were not weak, at least at the level of the Angel King, otherwise there would be no way he could control my fate from such a distance."

"However, his brain is not very useful. He even forgot our special skills as the Blood Duke. Of course, as a Blood Duke, even if he wanted to find where I was hiding, he would not be able to find it."

"I preserved my own person and memory in a drop of blood, then mixed it into His extraordinary characteristics. Through His connection with reality, I secretly escaped from the cage of the Mother Tree of Desire - of course, the price was giving up my characteristics and person."

"Do you think I've said too much?"

The figure saw that Sophie's spirit body had not fluctuated for a long time, as if it was still digesting the information she gave, and chuckled softly.

"If you've been with a damn guy for hundreds or thousands of years, surrounded by weird brothers and sisters and fathers who are having new children, and they are always trying to trigger your emotions, make you crazy and out of control, be noticed by the mother tree, and be dragged to bear the mother tree's children, you should understand my feelings."

"Okay, I've said enough. What I can tell you now is that I am you now, and one day, you will become me."

She walked towards the door, and at the same time, green demon horns with links grew on her body, and her bare feet gradually turned into hard hoof-like keratin.

"But, what should I call you?"

Sophie asked, not quite understanding.

"Whatever you like - the Blood Duke, the second daughter of Farbuti, the sister of Matafari, Cecia - you can pick a name that is more convincing."

Cecia introduced herself quickly and began to mutter.

"There are still a lot of crazy people from the Church of the God of War here. We need to block their surveillance before we do anything... Then we can use this. It's quick and convenient!"

Then, her figure suddenly expanded, and she instantly completed the two-step process of demonization and shadowization. The complete demonization strengthened the intensity of shadowization, and her body turned into a black, viscous liquid full of evil, and rushed out at the moment the gang members opened the door.

The Beyonders outside the door—regardless of their past Sequences—were now completely speechless. Their original target this time was just a powerless little girl, so when faced with the Sequence 5 that suddenly rushed out of the door, the only resistance they made was a Holy Light Spell thrown by a Sequence 7 "Weapon Master" standing in the front.

The black liquid turned into a human form before rushing up the wall of the corridor. Sophie, or rather Cecilia, wearing a blood-red full body armor, stood in the corridor that was empty except for her, playing with the colorful Beyonder Properties in her hands.

“Didn’t I tell you? These are just minor issues.” Cecia put the pieces of Beyonder Characteristics into her pocket, then pushed open the half-closed door next to her, and smiled like a devil to the red-haired girl who had just finished writing a manuscript and was about to come out to get breakfast but was trembling with fear after witnessing all this.

"Isn't that right, Miss 'archaeologist' Wendy?"
