However, such growth is actually very limited.

Normally, even if their talents grow, they will only become more astonishing, not to the point of being completely incomprehensible and unbelievable to ordinary people.

However, the true meaning of the codenames was to disrupt the opponent's mindset while carrying out missions, and at the same time ensure that they would not lose their lives due to accidents.

This is precisely why the Black Organization has been able to achieve victory in its past operations.

"Of course, these are just the usual cases, dear Miss Sharon."

Hearing this, Vermouth finally understood what was going on:

You mean—me?

“That’s right.” The [Ever-Changing Witch] nodded gently and explained, “The connection between us is far closer than theirs.”

Vermouth received the talent of instantly changing her appearance from the "Changing Witch," while the "Changing Witch" shared her wisdom.

That's right, the "Ever-Changing Witch" didn't unlock her intelligence on her own.

Once Vermouth dies, unless her successor possesses the same constitution, she will revert to her original muddled, instinct-driven state.

Otherwise, even if she didn't harm humans, she would never care about the lives of ordinary humans.

"Be honored, Sharon Vineyard. If you are willing to swear to serve me for all eternity, I will acknowledge you as my agent and share in the supreme power of us apostles."

Vermouth frowned and said:

What if I choose to refuse?

"Heh, it seems you haven't realized your situation yet?"

The "Ever-Changing Witch" had long anticipated that Vermouth would say that, since she had spent most of her life by Vermouth's side before descending to the mortal world.

Even though her emotions were incomplete during this time, and she couldn't fully understand all of humanity's thoughts and ideas, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was the apostle who understood Sharon the most in the world.

Otherwise, the "Changing Witch" wouldn't have been able to easily find Vermouth's most important safe house, nor would she have known all of her bank cards and passwords so well.

Therefore, she was very clear that Vermouth's answer was actually a test for her.

If she does nothing, it's tantamount to telling the other person that she can't do anything about her right now.

Then Vermouth will take advantage of the situation and test even more boundaries.

Of course, the current "Changing Witch" really can't do anything to Vermouth.

Although it would have been incredibly easy for her to kill him through the mirror.

However, it is clear that the "Changing Witch" would rather Sharon's entire savings be wiped out instantly than take another step near Beika Town in any form.

At this moment, speaking to Vermouth through a mirror and a phone is already the limit of what she can accept.

"Since I can give you power, I can naturally take it back as well."

Vermouth was startled, and then she felt as if something had been suddenly pulled out of her body.

During this period of time, the feeling of fullness in my body vanished completely.

Instead, she felt weak, as if she hadn't eaten for three days and three nights. Even her disguise skills, which she thought she had developed into an instinct, seemed to have completely disappeared from her mind.

How could this be? !

Seeing the weakness, shock, and disbelief on Vermouth's face, the [Changing Witch] finally asked:

"So, are you still planning to reject me now?"

Vermouth replied without hesitation:

"I will go back to see you now."

Even though the "Changing Witch" seems unable to cause her any real harm, Vermouth will never allow herself to become an ordinary person who can't do anything.

Even with her special status, if she were to fall into such a predicament, she would definitely not have a good outcome within the Black Organization.

Wait a minute, Vermouth suddenly realized a problem.

Could it be that the BOSS's constant attention to her wasn't just for the reasons she originally thought, but because among all the organization members, she had the deepest fusion with the demon?

"That's good."

Upon hearing this answer, the "Ever-Changing Witch" was finally completely relieved.

What Vermouth was unaware of was that after the [Changing Witch] descended upon the world, their connection became even closer.

It's difficult for either of them to sever this connection now.

【The Ever-Changing Witch】suppressing the power flowing towards her is actually like an ordinary person trying to hold their breath; it can only be maintained for a very short time.

If she had stuck to her guns, she would have found that the "Ever-Changing Witch" would soon be helpless against her.

However, the "Changing Witch" truly understands Vermouth very well and knows that she would never insist on anything pointlessly under these circumstances.

Given Vermouth's cautious nature, she had naturally prepared more than one escape route, allowing her to leave Tokyo at any time.

Therefore, less than twenty minutes later, she was already on a private plane bound for the United States.

Of course, even on the plane, she didn't forget to gather intelligence:

“My lord, since you are so powerful, even if I only share less than one-tenth of your power, I should be invincible. Why are you in such a hurry to leave Beika Town?”

Chapter 115 Good Personal Relationship

"Why are you in such a hurry for me to leave Beika Town?"

Upon hearing these words, the "Ever-Changing Witch" immediately conjured up a pair of majestic golden eyes in her mind, causing the previously smug demon to instinctively shudder.

"Who, who's getting impatient?!"

The only thing that can truly terrify a demon is an even more terrifying demon.

Seeing her other self's reaction, Vermouth lowered her eyes slightly, confirming her suspicions.

Although they have only spent a very short time together, the Thousand-Faced Witch's intelligence has already allowed her to vaguely grasp the personality of this "Ever-Changing Witch".

Arrogant, self-willed, and extremely vain.

Or rather, the other party simply didn't take her, a human being, seriously.

Of course, if the [Ever-Changing Witch] wasn't lying, and that her physical abilities had suddenly increased several times over in the past few days, yet she had only shared less than one-tenth of the other's power, then it certainly had the right to look down on her.

Although she hasn't had a chance to formally test her limits yet, Vermouth is quite certain that she could easily kill ten of her original selves now.

Even within the entire organization, no one can rival her in a one-on-one fight.

Even if Rum brought all his codenamed members to surround and kill her, Vermouth was confident she could escape easily, and even—

They turned them into their prey and defeated them one by one.

However, these deductions are naturally based on the premise that the mysterious BOSS does not have any hidden cards up his sleeve.

Almost all members of the organization with codenames have always known that Vermouth holds a very special position within the organization.

Even she herself thought so.

She wasn't omniscient about that person's secret, but she already had some guesses in her heart.

But it was only at this moment that Vermouth finally realized that she, like the ordinary members, had never had access to the truly core secrets.

It is ten times stronger than I am now. Just how terrifying would true demonic power be?

Vermouth could hardly imagine, but it seemed that it was precisely this confidence that allowed the "Changing Witch" on the other side of the mirror to act so casually.

As long as her attitude is humble enough, like the insignificant human being the other party describes, it seems to become exceptionally easy to talk to.

In this sense, these demons are nothing more than special life forms with great power.

In terms of combat, even a hundred Vermouths wouldn't be a match for one [Changing Witch].

But when it comes to cunning, even a hundred "Hundred-Faced Witches" tied together couldn't outwit a single "Thousand-Faced Witch."

"So, what exactly did you just do?"

Only after Vermouth safely flew out of Asia did the "Ever-Changing Witch" finally relax.

To be honest, she was grilling steak and singing in the villa when she suddenly sensed that familiar power.

If she hadn't quickly discovered that the source of this power was Vermouth on the other side of the Earth, she would have been so frightened that she would have exploded on the spot.

That's right, it's exactly what it means to "self-destruct" and escape.

[The Ever-Changing Witch] is incredibly curious: how exactly did Vermouth get involved with that person?

Of course, what intrigued her even more was that after offending that person, he was still able to sit here and talk to her unharmed, which was truly a miracle.

"What did I just do?"

Vermouth pondered for a moment, then quickly recounted her encounter with Miwako Sato.

"I see, it was just that person's talisman."

After listening, the "Ever-Changing Witch" suddenly understood and was completely relieved.

Vermouth's heart stirred, and she said humbly:

"So, Lord Apostle, it was the talisman that stopped the bullet?"

Demonic power, it can even block firearms?

If such amulets could be mass-produced, wouldn't that be...?

The "Ever-Changing Witch" gave a soft hum, and she could certainly sense that Vermouth was testing her.

She even considered using "that person" to keep her in check, but she really didn't care.

The disparity in strength between the two sides is something that cannot be bridged by any amount of strategy.

"Mere firearms? But I advise you to give up the idea of ​​playing both sides, because if you call us Shadow Apostles demons, then that one is probably the god you speak of."

The numerous restrictions Zhongli placed on it reveal that this is a "deity" of a lover.

"God, God... Ming?!"

Vermouth was stunned.

Yes, if there are demons, then it seems only natural that there would be gods as well.

The ever-changing witch sneered:

"So do you understand now, you foolish and ignorant mortal? If I were you, I would never set foot in Tokyo again in this lifetime!"

It seems that this god truly possesses a powerful force that even demons fear.

Recalling the initial, furious questioning from the "Changing Witch," Vermouth now fully understands.

However, as the other party said, given the numerous evil deeds committed by the organization, what kind of judgment will the gods bring upon us?

While Vermouth was filled with fear, she also felt a strange, inexplicable sense of anticipation.

“I never expected it to be like this. I will remember your advice, Apostle.”

"That's more like it." Although it was clear that Vermouth was just saying that for show, the [Changing Witch] was still very satisfied. "From today onwards, you will stay in America. As long as you don't provoke that person, you can use my power however you want."

This is no longer just simple fear, but it's almost becoming a psychological trauma for this guy, isn't it?

Vermouth nodded thoughtfully, suddenly becoming curious about what this unruly demon had experienced in Beika Town to be so terrified of the place.

However, she quickly remembered something:

"By the way, Apostle, I have some close friends who are on a mission in Beika Town. May I give them a heads-up?"

"You can decide this yourself. Just remember to come see me when you get back."

Upon hearing this, the "Ever-Changing Witch" waved her hand impatiently, and her image quickly disappeared from the lens.

Looking at her reflection in the mirror, Vermouth was momentarily stunned.

It seems that this demon truly has no interest in humans other than himself, just as he claimed.

After pondering for a moment, Vermouth quickly picked up her phone and dialed her colleagues with whom she had "good personal relationships."

"A new mission?"

Hearing the familiar, cold voice from the other end of the conversation, Vermouth slightly curled the corners of her lips and said in a relaxed tone:

"No, I just wanted to remind you that my mission failed because I encountered a very formidable opponent, so you'd better be careful too."
