I'm a proper student; I only take nine kinds of potions every day.

At this point, Hill, who was usually strong and reliable, burst into tears.

Then, her voice trembling with excitement and exhilaration, she said, "In this absurd and dangerous world, I suddenly saw your silly, innocent face..."

"In that instant, I felt as if I, who was in the abyss, had seen a ray of warm light!"

"In that instant, hiding behind the witch's mask, I never realized how handsome you were! How reliable you were! How incredibly powerful you were!"

Evan thought to himself, "A classic suspension bridge effect."

At this moment, Hill said excitedly, "I instantly believed in my teacher's divination and judgment!"

"Evan Ludwig Arkham!!"

"You are the one destined for me!"

After listening to these words in silence, Ivan responded with only one gesture.

Tear!

The lace-trimmed turtleneck dress had already been reduced to pieces.

Hill closed his eyes with a look of relief and peace on his face, as if waiting for something.

“You haven’t let me down, Evan.”

"Now, let us become each other's anchors in this illusion and reality!"

With his eyes slightly reddening, Evan said, "Hill... my dear senior sister!"

"I fucking love you to death!!"

……

After a chaotic upheaval, the entire interior of the tavern was in disarray.

The neatly arranged tables, chairs, and benches, now overturned and scattered, bearing traces of blood.

The two, feeling completely relaxed, casually leaned against each other.

Evan asked curiously, "Hill, what exactly happened? How can I get you out of here?"

Hill seemed to have completely controlled the witch form, speaking in a tone familiar to Ivan.

"It's not a big deal."

"On Christmas Day, I'll go back and spend Christmas with them."

"Then they used the witch's power to put me into a storybook."

“I learned some things about my family’s past from the storybook.”

Hill's voice was quite calm at this moment, as if he were talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"There, I met the administrator of this area, a lord-level great witch."

"It told me a lot, and then I agreed to its suggestion and accepted the development of my witch potential."

"Finally, I gained new power and took on my current form."

Upon hearing this, Evan reached out and put his arm around Hill's fair shoulder.

He knew, of course, that the process was full of pain, but he didn't ask any questions.

This is the way to go on the path to extraordinary achievements.

What are your plans for the future?

Hill leaned on Evan's shoulder and said in a light tone, "I don't plan to go back to the real world anymore. This area is my home ground."

"The reason I took over this tavern is to use it as a base."

Hearing this, Ivan was startled. He turned around, grabbed Hill's shoulders with both hands, and asked, "How can this be? The Dream Realm is too dangerous!"

"Does this mean we won't be able to meet as easily as before in the future?!"

Hill chuckled after hearing this and pinched Evan's cheek.

"You brat! I don't think you're worried about the dangers of the Dream Realm at all; I think you just didn't have enough to eat!"

Ivan coughed: "Yes, yes, we have them all!"

Hill's smile faded, and she transformed into the mature and reliable senior sister she always was.

"I've talked a lot with those witches these past few days, learned a lot of secret knowledge, and also gained a deeper understanding of this world."

“Evan, the truth of this world, the darkness, shocks me. It is far more grand and terrifying than what Dr. Armitage described!”

"The factions and system of Witchers are too fragile now. If there are any changes to the entire professional system, Witchers will be the first to suffer."

"My teacher gave me a lot of help before he died, and now you have inherited his extraordinary qualities!"

"The potential you've shown so far is enough to make you the leader of our Witcher team in the future!"

Evan grinned and said, "I'm confident in that."

Hill nodded: "Of course I believe you, but you also need other help."

"Take Princess Sap for example. Nowadays, the Sap family is a typical capitalist who bets everywhere."

"Old Sap himself was a factory owner. He sent his factory owner's daughter here, hoping to turn her into a witch."

"I also have a son who is now a trainee judge, and a son-in-law who is a real estate developer in Xinxiang."

At this point, Hill stood up and spread his arms, revealing the stunning view to Evan.

"Just like those capitalists, we can't put all our bets in one place; we also need to expand our reach and influence."

"This tavern is one of my targets!"

"Thanks to my identity as a witch, I am not affected by spiritual corruption when I move around here."

"So I can stay here for a long time."

As she spoke, she looked intently at Evan: "To stand firm amidst the great changes of the future, we need sufficient connections and intelligence sources."

"Twilight Rose Sanatorium is a good place. It's not just a correctional institution; many factions have agents here."

"Furthermore, this place is located within the Dream Realm, making it an important area for information exchange and circulation."

"Not only humans come and go here, but also all sorts of monsters from the Dream Realm."

"Ghouls, Moon Beasts, Night Demons, Deep Ones, Pale Dancers, Trolls, Yetis, Shagai Zerg..."

“Even the agents and incarnations of various gods often appear here.”

Upon hearing this, Ivan's eyes widened immediately: "Is this place really that impressive?"

Hill nodded, then casually picked up his head and bounced it up and down in his hand like a ball.

It was only then that Evan realized that the sound was not coming from Hill's mouth, but from something invisible.

At this point, he was certain that the situation was as Hill had described.

Now her head seems to have been transformed into some kind of magical artifact, a weapon that carries her madness.

"The rules of the Dreamland are quite chaotic, but in this area, due to some special reasons, the rules are very binding."

"This has led to many factions wanting to come here to resolve and negotiate their conflicts."

"There are many rules of the game here that are suitable for them to use in resolving disputes!"

"For example, the potion duel we just had, the massacres we just heard about in the night, and the unintentional assassinations during the day..."

"These rules are suitable for various organizations and families to seek revenge and duel."

"It can also minimize the impact on reality!"

Hearing this, Ivan nodded knowingly: "I thought this place was just a gloomy and terrifying coercive institution, but I didn't expect it to have become an important transit point."

Hill said, "In the years before, this place really was just like you imagined."

"But with the arrival of the Radiant Witch in recent years, this place has undergone earth-shattering changes."

"It restored and reconstructed the rules and order here, allowing the power of that fallen ruler to function better."

Chapter 199: Reversal Complete! The Miraculous Effects of the Light Potion

As she spoke, the Hill woman remained standing there, but her head floated in front of Ivan, and the two looked into each other's eyes, speaking earnestly.

"As I just said, you are my anchor in reality, and I hope that I can become your anchor in the dream world."

“Every witch has her own audience ceremony, and I can entrust mine to you.”

"From now on, whenever you perform this ceremony, you may come to the tavern to see me."

"There are nine witches here now, including me. We all have certain privileges, which at least guarantee your safe travel."

After hearing Hill's words, Evan nodded in agreement.

Having ascertained Hill's current condition and future plans, Evan felt relieved.

Then, he asked curiously, "The side effects of the potion you just took were quite scary, are you alright?"

Hill, his head bobbing in the air, grinned smugly: "Of course it's fine!"

"I am now a witch! In this special realm, I have ways to alleviate the side effects of these potions."

Ivan nodded: "Princess Sap died today. Will old Sap have any reaction?"

Hill's head was still floating in the air, but his headless body snuggled into Evan's arms.

"What kind of reaction can there be? In this place, you have to accept the consequences of your bets."

"Wealth and status in the material world cannot influence the rules here."

Ivan put his arm around Hill and asked one last time to confirm, "Are you really not planning to go back?"

Hill's voice was filled with helplessness and a sigh.

"Perhaps this is the best option. They have already disappointed me greatly, and because of blood ties, I really can't bring myself to harm them."

"Now I don't want to have any more entanglements with them."

"Let them pretend I'm dead, and never see me again. That's the best way."
