You think you're worthy of saving the world?

"The new guy!"

"I'm coming."

Another witch's voice came from behind him, and Yuri immediately turned around to respond to the call.

Time flew by and it was already evening. Yuri had been busy since morning.

His job includes, but is not limited to: serving tea and water, cleaning, using magic to restore physical strength, wiping the witch's body, etc.

Finally, to the boy's eager anticipation, a beautiful figure with bright red hair and a gorgeous dress appeared.

"Let's go back," the "wicked witch" called to Yuri.

Yuri was helping to push from behind, and when he saw the red-haired girl, he immediately let go of her butt and ran over with a big smile.

get off work!

Euryphus Falción's "Witch's Hand" level has been increased to Lv.9 → Lv.10.

……

……

……

Two days spent in the ritual room weren't entirely fruitless.

Yuri discovered that his witch-wielding experience points were also slowly increasing while he was working, which is why he was working so enthusiastically: "So, I'm also a member of the ritual, and I'll level up too? Now I feel like I'm part of it!"

As the workday drew to a close, Yuri's Witch Master class finally reached the crucial level of 10.

The moment Yuri reached level 10, she suddenly had a premonition that something good was about to happen.

His psychic abilities and intuition are becoming increasingly sharp... This is also evidence of Yuri's growing strength.

So, what good thing will happen?

As Yuri followed behind the "wicked witch," he suddenly kicked something. Looking down, he saw a deep red, oval-shaped egg.

"What's wrong?" the red-haired girl asked, turning around.

"...No, it's nothing."

Yuri remained calm, using her shoe to cover the red egg, and quickly picked it up when the "wicked witch" turned around.

Holding it in your hand and looking closely, you can see that the surface of the red egg is irregularly arranged with tightly closed human eyes, nose and mouth. Its ugly and eerie appearance sends chills down your spine.

The Demon King's Egg

【Props·Only】

[The law of causality, possessed only by the chosen king, is the key to opening the dimensional gate and leading to the darkness of the abyss.]

[Responding to the desires and will of the holder, one experiences the destiny of the world by sacrificing one's own flesh and blood.]

"this is……"

Euryphus was horrified: Oh no, I've become Griffith!

"Shouldn't this stuff have ended up in Rosalia's territory?"

He forced himself to remain calm, silently put the red egg into his pocket, and quickly followed the "wicked witch".

……

……

……

Back at the "Witch's House" in the evening, there wasn't much free time.

Yuli continued to talk to the "wicked witch" about the future world—

Only when he tells stories of the future world will the red-haired girl put away her fierce attitude and show an expression like an ordinary girl.

Yuri felt that it wasn't always me who was doing the talking; it was about time he got a chance to get some information out of her.

"Let's talk about something else tonight."

"...Tsk."

The "wicked witch" rolled her eyes impatiently, but did not directly refuse.

"Does the witch hate humans?"

"Of course I hate it, I hate it the most. Just smelling human scent makes me want to vomit."

She swayed in her over 15cm high heels, speaking with a serious expression in a witch-like manner.

Yuri then asked, "If you hate humans, why do you yearn for a world where humans and witches can coexist?"

"Huh? Are you stupid? Who would want that kind of thing? Die, you piece of trash! You piece of trash?!"

Yuri's lips twitched: This brat's mouth stinks even more than Stella's...

The "wicked witch" curled her brow and whispered, "Although I hate humans... I hate this era even more, and I hate this boring, unfree life."

After a brief moment of genuine emotion, she fiercely warned Yuri that if he dared to tell anyone, she would chop him up and feed him to the monsters.

Afterwards, Yuri learned some inside information about the witches.

Among the witches who appeared that night, the heavily made-up beauty was called the "Rouge Witch".

She is the leader of Graycastle, essentially the eldest sister of the witches.

She was a very famous figure in history, and Yuri had heard many anecdotes about her, though none of them were good.

The "Crimson Witch" does not participate in witches' rituals. She does not need to gain experience points through rituals; instead, she can directly share her power with others.

The beautiful woman in white with long hair squatting next to him is called "Lantern Witch".

She was the most eccentric of all the witches, and she never participated in rituals, appearing and disappearing like a ghost in Graycastle all day long.

Yuri felt that the "Malice Witch" had no right to judge others.

"Don't you also not participate in the ceremony?"

Yuri hasn't seen her in the witches' ritual room for the past two days.

He had been somewhat looking forward to the little imp witch's performance in bed.

"Didn't I say I hate humans?" The "wicked witch" clicked her tongue in annoyance.

"...Yes."

The cabin returned to a brief silence.

"I said……"

The witch broke the silence: "You've been talking about human life these past two days, what about the witch?"

What kind of lives have they been living since 2000? You haven't mentioned any of that.

The witch 2000 years later...

Yuri jolted awake the moment he heard the question.

"What? Why aren't you saying anything?" The "wicked witch" frowned.

As she stared at him with those gray eyes brimming with deathly ferocity, a bead of cold sweat trickled down the face of the prophesied child.

He suddenly had a bold idea.

Yuri gripped the "Demon King's Egg" in his pocket and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"The witch has become a human's familiar..."

They... are kept as pets by their human masters.

052 "The Demon King's Egg" (Please continue reading)

It exudes an incredibly eerie atmosphere, with crimson egg-shaped objects haphazardly scattered with human eyes, mouths, and noses; it is called the "Demon King's Egg".

A legendary relic known to very few.

Just like the grotesque and terrifying appearance of the "Demon King's Egg," its effects are equally horrifying—

When the holder is in dire straits or feels despair, the "Demon King's Egg" will gradually reveal a pained human face after being stained with the holder's own blood.

Blood tears will flow from people's eyes, and wails will come from their mouths.

At the same time, the world underwent a dramatic change.

The path between planets and higher dimensions will be opened, and a ritual called "Witch's Night" will be performed.

The church's records are incorrect.

"Witch's Night" is not a gathering of more than ten witches; it was originally a godhood ritual initiated by the "Demon King's Egg".

When the holder despairs of everything in the world and resolves to renounce his human identity, he will offer up what is most important to him, and those things he cherishes will become the offerings for the ritual.

Generally speaking, the thing that can be sacrificed must be the person's most important and cherished person—such as a wife, a child, a brother who shares life and death with you, or the country you built with your own hands.

It is said that the "Demon King's Egg" is a supreme relic passed down among witches, a symbol of the Witch King.

Only those with extraordinary luck and desire, and the magnanimity of a king, can encounter this—

It's actually just an item that appears directly in the player's inventory when they change their class to Witch.

The item description for "Demon King's Egg" vaguely recounts a terrifying and horrifying historical story.

Before Yuri traveled through time, she had watched a related research video on Bilibili.

In the video, the author combines fragmented information from the game to summarize that hidden history.

In the era when Yuri and Rosalia arrived, there was a person who accidentally obtained the "Demon King's Egg".

That person initiated the ritual, which triggered the arrival of the "Witch's Night".

It was only because of the aftereffects of the ascension ceremony that the human era, which had lasted for ten thousand years, almost came to an end.

Although the backstory is very intimidating, the "Demon King's Egg" in the game is actually useless. It is just a small Easter egg that exists as a collectible and does not provide any stat bonuses.

however--

When Yuri completed her Witch Master transformation in the real world, she did not obtain this item.

The prophesied son was still wondering if his recent excessive prayers had led to a lack of desire.
