Mystery: The Stranger

Chapter 76 Taming the Witch

Is Seremia still alive?

The Elf King's words were so bizarre that for a moment, Goshinam was at a loss for words.

"The Queen of Another World originally had some connection with the one on the real moon. In addition, she is not a second-path of Order. Even if she were to go to the starry sky in my place for a quick look, she might not die, and it would only be for a quick look."

Snow couldn't reveal his source of information, but it was true that the Queen of Another World had taken a look for him; this was how an ancient god using a combination of lunar and gate pathways should operate.

"True madness is not losing your mind, but not being able to tell if you're insane."

"Queen of Calamities" Goshinam thought that the Elf King had indeed gone mad.

"To surpass the imagination of ordinary people by one step is genius; to surpass the imagination of ordinary people by ten steps is madness."

"I understand your concerns. If you're worried, feel free to make some preparations, or have some backup plans, or even discuss it with the gods of fortune. I won't mind."

By this point, Snow was actually quite open-minded and didn't care what Goshinam did.

He even took out a mirror in front of Goshinam, and after reciting the name of the primordial witch, a face more alluring than the goddess of beauty appeared on it. Although she was also a woman with a head and two legs, with a classic slender figure and enchanting long black hair, she just felt different from other ordinary women.

But... thankfully, the moon's uniqueness, after all, is in Snow's hands, and the power of beauty can also resist this allure.

Moreover, the Elf King's memories contain nude photos of Lilith at her peak, in her most primitive form, mutated to the point of becoming a monster. In terms of shock value, even the relatively healthy Chik in front of him is just child's play.

"The Elf King?"

"Primordial Witch" Chick was slightly surprised, but as the witch who understood men best, she instinctively felt that the other party must want to get something from her.

"If there's a chance, how about we team up?"

Snow didn't mention anything special; he just wanted to give a heads-up.

"Hehe~ Of course, you're the first one who wants to team up with me."

Chick was taken aback for a moment, then laughed. As he laughed, his hair swayed like little snakes, making a hissing sound. Even though it was a casual movement, it looked beautiful when done by a witch. It was a sight to behold.

Even now, this guy still firmly believes he is a man, but Snow doesn't have any psychological prejudice because of this, because He has long accepted this setting. He doesn't know when it started, but it seems that Earthlings' aesthetics have begun to favor female witches who look like witches, feel like witches, but are actually boys at heart. Even Snow himself thinks that this must be God's will.

"Isn't anyone else interested in teaming up with you?"

"The Demon King is hiding in the abyss and doesn't need allies for the time being. The Underworld Emperor may not want to share the Southern Continent with you, but you don't plan to establish a country. The Aegis Empire can accept the Witch Church. Death and disaster are always inseparable. The Fallen God, well... unless He is willing to let His Red Angels suffer."

"Six Gods hasn't approached you for cooperation either..."

Snow did a simple analysis and ruled out that Chick was deliberately teasing him. He couldn't understand what Chick could be so detestable.

In terms of the time of his ascension to godhood, he was second only to the Black Emperor Solomon, and was the second deity of the Fourth Age.

In terms of threat level, with so many churches in the world, one more witch church wouldn't be a problem. As for charm, even if you dragged the Eternal Sun over and had Him point to the face of the Primordial Witch for evaluation, even the proud sun would probably have to admit that she did possess some beauty...

In a world where the top echelons are almost entirely obsessed with appearances, what could possibly cause such an outstanding witch to be forgotten or ostracized?

He looked at Chick, who was smiling even more charmingly in the mirror, and gestured for him to explain.

Snow could certainly find the answer himself, but there was absolutely no need for him to.

"Why don't you try it and see?"

The "Primordial Witch" licked her lips, as if stepping out of a mirror, a faint halo spreading out around her. Beside her, Gao hope...

Nam's face instantly turned crimson, and he couldn't help but squeeze his legs together, quickly retreating from the area enveloped by the halo.

Snow, of course, also felt that ultimate pleasure. There was no prelude; this was the extension of the Primal Witch's authority, which was actually similar to a plague or a viral infection. It was a forced stimulation of the body to produce a corresponding reaction. If it were just like that, then the Primal Witch would be like a massage girl. Snow even wanted Chick to extend the time. It wouldn't be bad to have this ability to enjoy himself occasionally.

But as the Primordial Witch truly emerged from the mirror with strands of hair resembling small snakes, some of which even bit Snow, Snow's eyes widened slightly. He could feel the divinity within him accelerating its resurrection, and even the divine fire residing in the Moon's uniqueness burned even more fiercely.

The Primordial Witch seems to have an ability to accelerate the revival of a great consciousness, but I've never heard of it.

"The Chaotic Sea?"

Finally, when the three properties belonging to the Storm Path within Snow's body resonated slightly, he roughly understood what that thing was. The Elf King was very familiar with it; it was the power of the Chaos Sea, pollution from the earth's depths.

The primordial witch's ascension ceremony, as recorded on the blasphemous stone tablet, involved a sacrificial ritual. It seemed to involve going deep underground, finding the "Chaos Sea," enduring a certain amount of pollution from the "Chaos Sea," and maintaining one's true self, neither falling into depravity nor becoming alienated.

So we can assume that the Primordial Witch was corrupted by the Chaos Sea, which explains why the Six Gods kept their distance from her.

However, the pollution from the Chaos Sea isn't that contagious, and at most it accelerates Snow's madness rather than restoring his divinity. He's no longer following the path of the Five Families, but rather the path of the Order, unless...

"Primordial power?"

A crimson moon rose behind Snow, drawing away the feminine power that wasn't his own, which the witch had imposed upon him. His condition gradually improved, and his divine resurgence subsided.

"As expected of the Elf King."

When the "Primal Witch" Chick noticed that the "Elf King" was still calm and hadn't hung up the communication or started a fight with him, she smiled and pulled her hair back down.

"The beginning is the start, and chaos is the end. As a witch, I hold the power over both the beginning and the end."

"Moreover, because of the pollution of the Chaos Sea, even though I always maintain my individuality, I still can't control certain instincts. For example, if I don't want to become chaotic and turn into a monster, I can't 'end' and must simultaneously maintain 'beginning.' And if I keep maintaining 'beginning,' then those related to me will be affected by the 'primordial' authority. This is the inevitable curse of getting too close to the witch."

"I am a walking calamity, an apostle who plays the song of all things returning to chaos."

The primordial witch in the mirror has her arms outstretched as if to embrace the sun, and the mirror's radiance is also changing, presenting a downward-looking perspective, making people feel most directly that she is incredibly powerful.

"Chaos, or the primordial state."

These two powers are the core powers of the Primordial Witch, which Snow has never possessed, and are even quite abstract in the known information about them.

Original: Represents the beginning, omnipotence, etc.

Chaos: It is the supreme authority of "Doomsday," capable of returning all things to chaos and their original state. It is a branch of the symbol of destruction and end, and is a different way of ending things from death, eternal darkness, weakness, defeat, slaughter, and shattering.

That's all the content...

The only slightly useful aspect is that the "Chaos" authority of the "Chaos Witch" cannot be directly applied to relatively stable and balanced targets. It must first create a catastrophic collapse in a designated area, causing the contradictions to erupt and forming a substantial chaotic vortex before it can spread outward and affect the target. This is the prerequisite for the authority to function.

"Your initiative in explaining yourself means you're willing to cooperate, doesn't it?"

"I originally thought that we would only cooperate temporarily in special circumstances, such as when we were dealing with certain people together, but now it seems that there are indeed other possibilities between us."

Snow held the Moon's Uniqueness in his hands, and in the mirror before him, a phantom crimson moon was reflected, like a beating heart, transfusing blood to the witch before him. "In our time, this was called extracorporeal renal dialysis."

The "Primordial Witch" raised an eyebrow, not understanding the term, but still intending to try. So she didn't stop the "blood-drawing" from the crimson moon in front of her. As a result, Chik's blood flowed into the illusory crimson moon, making it exceptionally full and eerie, a chilling red.

The Primordial Witch, however, showed no abnormalities whatsoever. Despite receiving a large amount of blood transfusions, she showed no signs of aging or fatigue.

He looked at the illusory crimson moon before him with great interest, not at all worried that the "Elf King" was deliberately trying to trick him. This was the mirror world under his control. The "Elf King" was just projecting the power of the moon's uniqueness. In reality, the master of this place was still Chik.

Moreover, even if she loses this blood, it doesn't matter. For the primordial witch, the source of all black magic in the world, blood is a medium for curses. The "Elf King" is unlikely to be crazy enough to offend her for nothing, just to take back a super terrifying curse bomb.

Soon, the capacity of the Crimson Moon reached its limit, and some of the blood began to flow back to the Primordial Witch. Chik was slightly surprised to find that the blood seemed to have become cleaner... no... it couldn't be said to have become cleaner, but rather that the part that drove him mad was not as active and seemed to have become more dormant.

"What did you do?"

The "Primordial Witch" looked at the Elf King outside the mirror world with great curiosity.

"To tame you."

Snow's answer made Chick blink involuntarily. Even the Queen of Calamity, who was not close but still inside the palace, was speechless and confused. Goshinam sadly realized that, since when, a pitiful thick barrier had separated her from her husband.

"Tame me?"

"Hehehe, you're really funny."

The primordial witch burst into laughter, and although her laughter sounded rather strange, it was still as clear and melodious as a silver bell due to the beautification of her charm and power.

Chick knew, of course, that vampires were masters of manipulating blood, and that they possessed the ability to tame extraordinary creatures. The Elf King, who had mastered the uniqueness of the moon, was naturally unparalleled in this regard. But he never expected that one day he would be spoken of in this way.

Moreover, if He hadn't cooperated, this dialysis would have been impossible, but the Elf King said he would tame Him, which made Chik find it very amusing.

"Male power is a restless power, but female power is not calm either."

"The witch represents the feminine aspect of the original creator, and the moon represents the feminine aspect of the universe."

"It's not only yin and yang that can interact; Taiyin and Shaoyin can too..."

Snow was interrupted by Chick halfway through his sentence.

"I know you're different, could you say something I can understand?"

Chick was speechless. Of course he understood Elvish, but he still couldn't understand what the other person was saying. Moreover, there were some words that didn't even exist in the Elvish language he knew. He even suspected that these were newly created words by the Elven King to bluff him.

But Chick wasn't sure, because the Elf Queen outside, though her brows were slightly furrowed, still looked deep in thought. This gave Chick the illusion that he was illiterate. Damn it, he was proficient in almost all dark magic.

"Okay, let me put it in a simpler way."

Snow was a little annoyed to be interrupted halfway through his sentence, but he also knew that communicating with a minor witch like the Primordial Witch required a lot of patience, and that he couldn't expect everyone here to understand the wisdom of Yin and Yang.

"you say."

The Primordial Witch shifted to a more comfortable position, resting her chin on her hand and enjoying the return of her blood. This feeling was truly wonderful, reminding her of the simple pleasure she gained from basking in the sun when she was still a mortal. The joy brought by power was fundamentally different from that of the mortal.

Although... the pleasure that comes directly from power is indeed unparalleled, and most likely nothing can be more pleasurable.

But after getting used to delicacies from land and sea, and rich, meaty foods, you can get a little tired of them.

"Snakes are cold-blooded animals; their body temperature changes with the ambient temperature."

"As you said before, due to the pollution of the Chaos Sea, the tendency towards chaos is spontaneous and points to the end. Therefore, in order to counteract this influence, you can only use the primordial authority, which points to the beginning, to stagnate your own chaos. Your body is naturally unbalanced and is a breeding ground for chaos."

"What I'm doing now is drawing your blood. If it's too hot, I'll let it cool down before sending it back. If it's too cold, I'll warm it up before sending it back, to find a balance for you."

As Snow spoke, he glanced at the Moon's Uniqueness and could feel his divine fire pulsating actively within it.
