New Century Kitchen Warrior

Chapter 131 Barefoot Girls
"I saw."

Someone suddenly said in the ancient room.

Those who can live in the royal city are all famous nobles of the Frey Empire. However, even the most famous nobles would not know that there are such rooms deep in the royal city. They are dim, neat and clean, like the scenes in some old horror movies, or like the cold palace where a princess was sent to because of her mistakes.

In the dim candlelight, the girls stood up barefoot and ran on the wooden floor. The thin ancient witch costumes swayed gently with their movements. They sat down around the girl who was speaking, waiting for her next speech.

"I saw our savior appear. This time, time is no longer a broken stream and can be continued. Girls, I think we can finally start to exert our strength!"

Instantly the girls cheered together, their faces showing joy.

This is the witches' studio.

Not far away are their bedrooms, bathrooms, canteens and toilets. Their whole lives have been spent here, like a group of birds living in a cage.

A small number of special priestesses even grew up here and have become accustomed to the life here, but more priestesses are forcibly controlled in this place, so they care more about the girl's words than others. That is the key to return home that they have been waiting for for too long.

As for that girl, her name was Ronina, and she was a princess with royal blood flowing in her veins.

However, the girls had no awe for the royal blood. Instead, they felt pity for these girls of noble status.

They are mass-produced. Small countries in other places need to offer princesses or daughters of noble families to the Frey Empire as proof of their loyalty. However, the women who marry here will not receive love, but will only be treated as reproductive machines. Their task is to give birth to children continuously. Baby girls who inherit the royal blood have a high probability of obtaining the talent of the witch. These daughters of the king will be sent to the cage that imprisons the witch like replenished parts to grow up. As for the children who do not get this talent, no one knows how they are dealt with.

The task of the witches is also very simple, to help the king to figure out how to kill the devil.

For the gifted witches, witchcraft is not a technical job that needs to be taught. How far one can see depends only on their talent and how much life they can burn.

Some very powerful skills will allow the user to burn life to continue the operation after the magic power is exhausted, but witch calculation is different. It is a matter of life and death. At the beginning, the little witches are very worried. They can't help but calculate how many days of their lives they have burned every time they use a skill. But after a long time, they get used to it and calculate other things to burn for fun from time to time.

In addition, in order to allow everyone to live as long as possible, they take turns to work, ensuring that everyone can live at least a little longer than the likes of 'our cat'.

Among the priestesses, the most gifted one is obviously Princess Ronina. With the same life, she can see farther. What she is talking about at this moment is that she finally saw the light through the clouds, foresaw the birth of a true hero, and began to see the timeline of the king being killed.

However, Wu Shuan can only see vaguely. Ronina can only see the possibility of the result and what can be done to trigger this result.

"The horn of counterattack has been sounded, but the brave man may need my help. Let me see. He is currently in the women's bathhouse of the Knights. Eh?"

The witch calculated the person's location.

Ronina was confused. She was not sure about the hero's gender, but it was not important. The key point was why the hero she had been waiting for for so long finally came to the royal city and went straight to the women's bathhouse.

Of course, the brave man must have his reasons for doing this.

"Can you see what he looks like?" someone asked.

"Is there any need to ask? He must be a handsome and powerful young man, just like the prince charming in the fairy tale. The only thing we don't know is who is his princess." Someone answered.

"Why did BYD come just now? We have been waiting for him for several years." said the youngest witch.

The plump witch covered her mouth and held her in her arms, saying gently, "After enduring humiliation for so long, it's finally time for us to fight back. Miss Ronina, please guide the witch in the direction of the calculation, and let us lend a hand."

The girls held hands, their eyes bright.

They took turns paying for the 'fuel' and shared the results. Key words flashed through their minds at once. This was about the composition of that person.

The keywords that once belonged to the Demon King were [World], [Emperor] and [Love]. The moment the deconstruction was completed, they knew what kind of person they were going to help the king kill, so they were extremely reluctant, but helpless.

And at this moment, they saw the key words belonging to the brave.

[Invasion of the World], [Guide the Emperor] and [Justice as Born], the priestesses were all dumbfounded. Generally speaking, the fewer words in the keywords, the more pure a person is. Conversely, the more words in the keywords, the more complicated the person is. However, this is the first time I have seen someone so complicated.

"Justice! You can see it, it's exactly the person we've been waiting for," Ronina said stutteringly, "Don't think too much about other keywords. The hero has such a complex personality, he must have his own reasons. We just need to support him. This is our atonement and our mission."

"He hasn't really been born yet. What we have to do now is to give him a push."

"Don't worry, I'll do the math."

Suddenly, there was a sound of metal stepping on the ground outside. Ronina immediately stopped the witchcraft. Several people sat down in shuffled positions, sitting cross-legged with their eyes slightly narrowed.

The other priestesses immediately understood what she meant and adjusted their sitting positions to assume the same posture as Ronina.

The door was opened.

The knight stood in front of the door, looking at the people in the room with wide eyes.

"What are you doing? No, you're meditating again? You're working too hard."

Ronina raised one eye, closed it again, and remained silent.

While preparing for this extraordinary plan to kill the Demon King, the old King Gagen developed some sort of paranoid complex and filled the castle with knights. The number of garrisons increased more than tenfold, and all of them were the elite knights.

Now that she had calculated the possibility of the king's death, she understood what he was afraid of.

Although they are father and daughter, Jiagang is actually her enemy whose throat she wishes she could bite off with her teeth. Next, she will spare no effort to guide the world into a world where Jiagang will die. That way, there will be no more women like her mother going crazy, and no more priestesses like her being born.

However, Gagang was also well aware of the terrifying nature of the priestess group, and arranged knights to keep an eye on them day and night. The knight who came to check on them at this moment was the one specifically responsible for the priestesses. His name was Roda, and he was known as the youngest and most talented knight. He had the same level of strength as the four knights of Boqi. Ronina heard that he could even split a tree in half with a casual sword.

But her brain wasn't very good, and Ronina didn't even bother to consider the possibility that the Miko Group would be caught by him.

"Why aren't you talking?" Luo Da was stunned. "Why didn't you talk when I got here?"

Still no one paid any attention to him. He scratched his head awkwardly, looked at the people in the room who were indeed in a meditative posture, and closed the door casually.

Until he learned to take off his heavy metal boots to check the room, Ronina didn't worry about being discovered.

She sat back down in her previous position.

"Okay, let's continue. Let's first talk about things that can be analyzed without witchcraft," she glanced at the closed door and sighed. "According to the witchcraft results, the possibility of the king's death and the continuation of the timeline is very slim. I think the biggest obstacle is the exaggerated defense of the royal city. There have never been so many knights guarding the royal city at the same time. They are like a heavy wall. We need to arrange for someone to escape from here and guide the brave man to attack the dragon's nest!"

"Of course, it's not necessarily because of this reason. It could also be that the strength of the hero who is born needs to grow, and the witch who is sent out can accompany him to improve his strength first. In this case, the timeline may be extended. Or maybe the hero born in the royal city encountered some unsolvable problems. If this is the case, the witch can only help him better after contacting the hero. However, that person may have to burn too many lives."

"In short, he needs a miko by his side, not that we need a miko by his side."

The witches nodded frequently.

The priestesses don't have much chance to travel around the world. Having never seen the world, they don't have any opinions of their own. However, the ability of the priestesses is precisely "seeing". The stronger this power is, the more ideas they will have in their little heads. This is exactly the case with Ronina.

"No, I don't think there is a knight called the Wall in the Knights of the Royal City." The little witch shouted again, and was once again covered with her mouth by the plump big witch and held in her arms.

"No one is holding a knife to our necks this time. We don't need to overdraw too much and look so far ahead. It's best to take one step at a time and proceed steadily," Ronis ignored the strange voice and continued, "Let's check the location of the brave man first. After so much time, he should have gone to the next location."

It is very easy to find the position of a person who has been deconstructed, especially when he goes to a sorcerer to calculate his current position instead of his future, so the number of lives required will not be so many.

Ronina reactivated her witchcraft ability to find the location of that person.

"Let me see. Eh? Why is it still the Knights' Women's Bathhouse?"

The hero's position did not change.

She was a little confused.

This confusion was just like how she had never understood before why the key to killing the Demon King was a plant of Nadolli.

That was a few years ago.

The priestesses at that time, even Ronina, who had burned their lives for nearly a hundred years, could not calculate the future very accurately. However, she calculated a key event and needed to arrange for someone to go to Hillius to replace a Nedorei. This small operation could greatly guide the changes in the world and lead the story to a better future while deceiving Gaggan.

The person in charge of this task disguised himself as a fortune teller in Hillius. Her mission was to go to a laboratory in a suburban mansion, steal a modified Nedoryi, and then sell it to a monster merchant. It was so strange and simple.

Taking this opportunity, Ronina calculated a way for the priestess to escape far away, and dissuaded Gaggan from angrily chasing her on the grounds that she did not have much time left, hoping that she was now doing well after her successful escape.

But after many years, there are still many sleepless nights, and Ronina repeatedly thinks about why, why that plant of Nedorye is so important.

Shaking her head, Ronina sighed. The real world is different from fairy tales. The key props to save the world may not be at the top of the pagoda where you have to pass through layers of levels.

But it is very likely that the singularity of everything exists in some seemingly unrelated strange place.

"This mission is very important, let me go." Ronina took a deep breath and stood up.

No one had any objections.

In terms of both wisdom and ability, Ronina is the most suitable one, and for this critical mission, the priestesses have deliberately concealed her outstanding abilities for a long time.

But the problem is that in the mission a few years ago, with a legitimate reason, the priestess could leave the royal city openly, and after escaping as planned, she could fly away alone and disappear and never be caught up again. However, this time they have to send people to carry out the mission they want to do. Even if Ronina successfully escapes from this castle with full vigilance, she will soon be discovered by the surveillance, and then the hero may be in trouble because of the knight's pursuit.

Ronina has an older sister, but unfortunately she is not in the royal city, otherwise maybe she could do something to replace her with another sister?

Find a way. Find a way.
Oh, got it.

As the number one idea king in the royal city, Ronina soon came up with a wonderful idea.

Princess? No. Princess? Sure!
Jiagang's harem is ridiculously large. The concubines who have exhausted their fertility will wait for death in the deepest part of the harem with these dark secrets.

These concubines are definitely willing to help her.

She stood up, her eyes lit up, and walked towards the door with light steps.

The stone door opened, and the corridor in front of her, the corridor five seconds later, and the corridor ten seconds later overlapped in Ronina's field of vision. She did not rely on obstacles to hide her figure, nor did she rely on skills to put her body into darkness like a ninja master. She completed the most perfect stealth in the simplest way and went straight forward. As long as she saw the shadow of a knight in front of her, she would lean towards the corner barefoot, wait silently for a few seconds, and then move forward.

She moved through the heavily guarded royal city like an empty space, missed all the patrols, and quickly reached the deepest room.

The concubine who lives in the deepest part is naturally the least favored. It is estimated that after she loses a storage bag full of food and water, no one will meet her for a whole year, and her disappearance will not be easily discovered, which is very suitable for cooperating with her actions.

The one who lives here is an old princess.

Judging from her appearance, she is a teenage sister of Dagagang. In fact, she was one of the first princesses to marry into the Frey Empire. This princess, who seemed to be too old to see, listened quietly to Ronina's plan and nodded gracefully, indicating that she was willing to help.

In fact, because she was too old, Ronina had already wanted to find another princess to help. However, after a little divination using witchcraft, she found that if this princess was willing to lend a hand and could fool people for more than seven days, that would be enough.

Ronina brought her sister, the princess, and her grandmother back to the witches' room. The girls immediately took action, cleaned her body, changed her clothes, and then hid her in the crowd. From a distance, she barely looked like a white-haired witch.

There was a big flaw, but the witches trusted the results of the divination more, so the matter was considered a success.

The next step is to implement the great plan. Ronina has been waiting for this opportunity for too long. She is eager to get started, but not impatient.

First, let's calculate the position of the brave man, and start the witch calculation again.

Ronina was stunned.

Why is this brave man still in the women's bathhouse of the Knights?

　I won't take leave anymore, and I won't believe in love anymore
