Witch, Fireball and Steam Evil God

Chapter 47 The End of the Fairy Tale
As the three Frost Arrow Scrolls were torn into pieces, Silver Fox witnessed Anna's last spell.

His astonishment did not stop there. He felt the vibration from the ground. A huge creature was about to break out of the ground. The first thing that caught his eye was the head of a bird. The sharp beak almost touched his face. What was even more bizarre was that he could actually see a human expression on the face of this bird made of ice element.

That was a look of contempt.

Humans, no, the entire neighborhood seemed so small in front of this giant beast.

Silver Fox was imprisoned by vines, and the only thing he could do was to look up and witness everything that was happening before his eyes.

Anna used three spells, but he couldn't name any of them. These spells didn't even seem like spells cast by humans. He faced the giant beast that flapped its wings and was about to fly, just like the huge gap between humans and nature.

Anna climbed onto the back of the giant beast, which raised its head and let out a deafening roar.

Most of the city's lights were lit up by this roar. Silver Fox felt the fear that permeated the city. Even the high-ranking nobles were no exception, and so was he.

Because the scene before them evoked the deepest fear in the hearts of every resident in the imperial capital, forcing them to think of the city that was once frozen, and an existence that could not be named.

Also, there is the period of history named "The War of the Fall" by the Vatican.

The silver fox witnessed the giant beast spread its wings, carrying Anna and flying off the ground, flying towards the military camp on the edge of the imperial capital.

The knights of the Kingdom Army were also awakened by the roar of the giant beast. Torches and gas lamps dispelled the darkness. Facing the rapidly approaching giant beast, the Musket Battalion had already climbed onto the city wall. Even though they were terrified, they still pointed their guns at the sky.

"Wait, cease fire, there's a person on the bird!"

A slender figure climbed up the city wall with a telescopic grappling hook. She was wearing light armor, with a rapier and a musket slung across her waist. Her long orange-red hair was neatly tied into a ponytail. The musketeers on the city wall immediately found their backbone.

The woman drew her gun and sword, stood in front of the formation, ready to receive the attack, her eyes full of excitement.

The giant beast did not attack the city walls and military camps. Instead, it stopped steadily in the open space between the military camps, leaned down, and let Anna slide down to the ground from its wings like a slide.

"Miss!?"

The young man, who was already holding a sword and standing at the front of the team, looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief. Everything that happened at this moment was like a dream to him. A bird descended from the sky, carrying his sweetheart to him. This was a scene that only appeared in fairy tales. He stood there in a daze, at a loss for a moment.

"Lance!"

Anna yelled the boy's name and ran over.

Lance subconsciously hugged the figure that threw herself into his arms. The real yet somewhat cold touch told him that everything before his eyes was really happening.

The expeditionary force lined up in the open space in front of the military camp. Under normal circumstances, they would definitely whistle and tease the relationship between the new knight and the noble lady, but they couldn't do that now, because everyone knew the nature of this expedition.

In fact, many people were surprised at this young man who joined the expeditionary force midway.

The hug between the two lasted maybe ten seconds, or maybe longer, until Lance blushed and hesitantly said, "Miss, there are a lot of people watching."

Anna was unwilling to let go and looked up at him, "Can you not go?"

"Miss, please don't talk nonsense."

"In that case, you will all..."

Anna's mind was full of the Silver Fox's vicious curse. It wouldn't take long for every person she saw at this moment to be cut into cold pieces by the bad guy's magic.

Lance put his index finger on Anna's lips, blocking what she wanted to say. If anyone took these remarks that shook the army's morale seriously, Anna and her entire family might be implicated.

"I have been grateful to the young lady and Butler Horn for taking care of me over the years. Now the border of the empire is in turmoil. This time, it is my turn to protect the young lady's kingdom."

“But, but!”

"Ms. Anna, a knight cannot break his oath."

The fiery figure on the city wall came behind Lance at some point. She crossed her arms over her chest and watched the farewell happening before her eyes with interest.

She noticed the tears in Anna's eyes, and her expression softened.

Therefore, the way of chivalry is really the most troublesome belief in the world. Once they go against their conscience and abandon virtues, the gods will take away their power. Therefore, even if they know that this is an expedition with no return, the knights will not look back. This is the tradition of the Holy Temple of Netheril.

Their armor carries this country and its people on their shoulders.

"So, make a deal with me. Hand him over to me, and I will ensure that he comes back alive. As for the conditions..."

The red-haired woman propped her chin on her hand and looked up at the giant beast in the military camp, her eyes sparkling with envy. "Let me ride it around the capital. No, even just five minutes is fine!"

The giant beast seemed to understand human language. It lowered its head and looked down at the tiny and bright figure, receiving her longing gaze.

next moment!
The huge body broke into pieces and turned into flying ice flowers in the blink of an eye and disappeared into the air, without even a splash of water. Before that, it gave the red-haired woman a proud look.

——You wish!
This is the message conveyed by the eyes.

This look was so effective that it froze the woman's hearty smile on her face. Her life seemed to be frozen at this moment. Her mouth was open and her eyes had lost focus. All the dreams and happiness in the world no longer belonged to her. She seemed to have turned gray and white, becoming stiff in the public eye until cracks appeared.

A knight lost his dream.

This strange scene lasted for a long time. Anna was at a loss and could only bury her head in Lance's chest and avoid looking at the woman's miserable condition.

The strange atmosphere continued until the woman finished shattering herself and reorganizing herself. She forced out a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "Even so, our agreement is still valid."

She heard footsteps approaching from afar. It was obvious that the commotion caused by the giant beast had alarmed everyone.

She also saw outside the military camp, a majestic old man in a red robe was walking straight towards the camp surrounded by a crowd.

Every fairy tale must come to an end, and after that, there will be the cold reality.

As the culprit who triggered this series of riots, no one knew how Anna would be treated next.

"If there is anything left to say, hurry up."

Her red pupils glanced at the two of them, she concealed all expressions, passed by the two of them, and returned to the image of the Valkyrie in people's eyes.

She walked towards the huge group outside the military camp.

"In the name of my 'other shore', I swear for you."
