Chapter 900: Alice's Past

"Greetings, Lord Eternal Sage, greetings, Lord White Hei Wuchang."

Dorothy greeted the two honestly.

If it were just her good sister alone, she might have been more relaxed and casually called out "Sister," but now, after all, it wasn't just the two sisters present.

Even with the current magical attainments of the Forest Witch miss, she still found it hard to imagine how her good sister could turn the Witch's Night, which should have been just a big dream of a student trial, into reality and become a piece of true history.

This kind of great supernatural means was too inconceivable; it had already exceeded her imagination, far more inconceivable than the time travel that the Demon King guy had pulled off before.

And it was precisely because of this lack of understanding that Dorothy really didn't have much realization of "So I am also one of the original founders of the Witch World." She really didn't have much sense of being the "original Prime Minister."

Therefore, facing this Eternal Sage in front of her, she still gave enough respect, even though Qiong was actually her subordinate in the Witch's Night.

The Home Witch knew that for a top-tier Sage like the Eternal Sage, the power of time could not fully act on her. Even if her good sister had really replaced history with unimaginable authority, it should have been difficult to hide it from the perception of a big shot like Qiong miss.

Therefore, in her view, she, this "Prime Minister in a dream," had better not pretend to be some big shot. If she really treated others as subordinates to be commanded at will like in the Witch's Night, that would truly be courting death.

Although she had her good sister protecting her and no one could hurt her, it was better not to court death if she could avoid it. One more thing is worse than one less thing.

However, facing Dorothy's greeting, Dinisha accepted it calmly—after all, she was the real sister—while the white-haired Sage beside her stepped aside.

"Lord Dorothy, you can just treat me as you did in the past. You are our true salvation."

Qiong looked at the Prime Minister in front of her with great respect and then said so.

In fact, there were really not many witches who could retain the memory of the first cycle under the authority of the God King. Only a very small number of the oldest first-generation Sages like her could do so.

After all, although Sages have the authority of "proving once, proving forever," the authority of ordinary Sages can at most backtrack and protect the time after their own birth, and cannot influence the more distant past before their birth.

Therefore, most of the relatively young Sages born after the "Witch's Night" could not perceive the authority of the God King. Only the oldest Sages like Qiong or the Black Sheep Sage Keleya could vaguely perceive it.

But, after perceiving it, does one really have to be "the only one awake while the world is drunk"?

Anyway, Qiong was not willing to wake up.

That first cycle where the God King saved the world was not a beautiful past; everyone was just a walking corpse forced to embark on a path of revenge after losing everything.

Even if the revenge was successful in the end and they obtained powerful strength, what was the point?

The things they truly wanted to protect had long been lost and could not return.

Then, at this time, if a chance to start over and make up for the regrets of the past was placed before your eyes, and this was not some devil's trick, but a true miracle, a salvation that only a "God" could bestow.

Then would you refuse it?

Of course, perhaps you would ask what the price is.

The price is that you need to nod and acknowledge the existence of this deity.

Then is there really anyone who can refuse this gift from a deity?

Anyway, Qiong herself could not refuse it, and she also knew that those old friends from the past could not refuse it either.

After all, who can refuse the hand of salvation extended to you by a young "True God"?

That is an omniscient and omnipotent True God.

Moreover, Qiong was actually one of the calmer ones among the first-generation Sages. Although she had once followed the God King on the path of revenge, she had not lost her way on the path of revenge like most of her former companions.

She knew very well that after successfully counterattacking Heaven and defeating the natural disaster race of angels that had almost caused the Witch World to perish, the Witch race had become a new natural disaster.

The former avengers had become the new persecutors.

This was obviously incorrect.

But what is correct?

Unfortunately, even though she had become a Sage, Qiong did not know the answer to this question.

She also had no ability to restrain her witch compatriots who had lost their way in the pursuit of power, so she simply hid in the Underworld and shut herself in. She felt that the answer to this question probably only the omniscient and omnipotent God would know.

Thus, the deity truly descended.

In that beautiful second cycle of "True God Salvation" that was like a dream, Qiong seemed to have found the answer she had always wanted in her heart.

Therefore, she did not just acknowledge the deity because the "True God" saved her; she also acknowledged the salvation path of that great future True God from the bottom of her heart.

In short, this respect and longing were true and real.

The Home Witch was also shocked by the respectful attitude of this famous Eternal Sage who "viewed her as a god." She was at a loss for a moment.

Have I done anything worthy of such respect from others?

The Home Witch asked herself, and then she really felt a bit unworthy.

After all, even in the trial of the "Witch's Night," she failed to achieve the most perfect ending in the end, still leaving behind so many regrets.

The so-called savior is really not easy to be.

So big shot, please don't look at me like that, okay? I'm under a lot of pressure, and I'm really afraid of failing to live up to this respect and expectation.

Dorothy shifted her gaze away with a guilty conscience.

Sometimes she really felt that she was a scumbag, always inadvertently bringing hope to others, but then fearing and worrying about whether she could bear that responsibility, thus retreating and hesitating, being timid.

I really envy traditional heroes like Adam, who can always face all challenges firmly and fearlessly, and I also envy the arrogance of those Dragon Overlord protagonists in novels who fight heaven, earth, and air.

Oh, in the first cycle, I seemed to be the Phoenix Overlord herself, it was just because I was too arrogant that I crashed...

Then it's fine.

Sure enough, it's better to be a bit cowardly. The strength of this broken world is too high; even a Phoenix Overlord can't hold it alone, so being a bit of a scumbag is fine.

The Home Witch comforted herself in her heart.

"Lord Dorothy, I just want to say that the current me is no longer that weak girl who could only helplessly hide under your wings. I should still be considered quite strong, and not just me, some other old friends are the same. Lord, you can trust us more."

The Home Witch just wanted to shift her gaze away with a guilty conscience, but the white-haired Sage opposite had already said so gently and firmly.

The Home Witch finally looked up, and her gaze met Qiong's.

Indeed, compared to the immature mortal girl she first met in the Witch's Night, the Eternal Sage in front of her was completely different.

Even if her appearance was still young, just white-haired, compared to the visible appearance, the changes in some invisible places were truly great.

The most obvious was naturally strength. What do you mean by "still considered quite strong"?

Dorothy just looked, and her inspiration could clearly perceive the terrifying power under the "weak" girl's appearance that was almost integrated with the Underworld.

If the reincarnation blood river outside was the manifestation of Lilith's power, then the Underworld land under her feet now was the embodiment of Qiong's power.

Even looking at the entire Western Universe, this Eternal Sage was definitely the top powerhouse under the Three Kings.

And not just strength, this ancient Sage obviously also possessed a resilient heart capable of controlling her powerful strength.

She was not the kind of weakling who would only cry on the spot and wait for the savior to save her when encountering danger. She was a powerhouse who had truly experienced countless hardships but persisted in the end. Her heart and faith were indestructible and unyielding.

If there were such companions by her side, even someone who was not confident would feel very safe, right?

Anyway, hearing Qiong say this, even a coward like the Home Witch suddenly felt that she could do it again.

Hmm, hmm, Phoenix Overlord Dorothy seems to be reviving...

Reviving my foot.

Dorothy crushed the restlessness in her heart.

She didn't come to the Underworld today to find confidence; she came to ask about her sister's business, okay?

"Hmm, hmm, okay, I know, Qiong."

She had no choice but to comply with the request of the white-haired Sage in front of her and no longer be overly polite to her.

Subsequently, she turned her gaze to the good sister beside her who had been looking at the two with a motherly smile since just now.

Don't ask why Dorothy knew she was smiling like a mother even though her good sister was wearing a mask; asking means sisterly connection.

"Sister, I came here today just to ask what's going on with Lilith's daughter. Does she have anything to do with my stupid sister now? This is quite important to me."

Dorothy didn't beat around the bush anymore; she asked directly.

And her question also directly stunned Qiong, who had just said she would always stand by her side. She then silently took two steps back, staying further away from the Home Witch, looking like "Don't splash your blood on me."

Home Witch: "..."

No, Qiong, is this what you meant by "I can trust you more"? How can you make me trust you like this? Give me back the emotion I just had, okay?

Dorothy's heart was galloping with grass mud horses; she looked angrily at the white-haired Sage.

She was really a bit panicked.

After all, Qiong was also a person of that era. She was from the same era as the first-generation Alice, and they must have known each other; she was one of the insiders at the time.

And her attitude naturally indicated that the first-generation Alice had probably really done something incredible, which her good sister was very wary of. This was a taboo topic that couldn't even be mentioned.

Mom, no way, what bad intentions could my muscle-brained sister have? She just doesn't have a very good brain; her heart shouldn't be bad, right?

The Home Witch felt a bit guilty.

And to this, Qiong also returned a look of "I really can't save you, Lord," indicating that she was powerless to help.

After all, she said she would walk side by side with Lord Dorothy in the face of right and wrong, but now this was obviously the family business of the two sisters; she had better not meddle.

And it was fortunate that Lord Dorothy asked this; otherwise, if any other witch brought up this taboo topic, it would truly be that no number of lives would be enough to die.

Qiong also carefully stole a glance at the expression of the God King beside her.

As a colleague who once built the Underworld, she did know a little about the family affairs of the Red Moon Sage Lilith. She knew that in the first cycle, this colleague actually had a complicated relationship with the God King.

The God King's successful rise to power could not be separated from the support of Lilith and the forces of the City of Sin. At that time, the newly born Witch race and the demons and vampires in the City of Sin were allies; they had a common enemy, the angels.

But privately, the God King and Lilith, the vampire queen, actually had some deadly feuds. Qiong didn't dare to inquire too much about the specific inside story, but she heard it seemed to be a feud over killing a husband.

It's just that logically, if there was such a life-and-death feud, the God King and Lilith should have started fighting as soon as they met, but in fact, the God King would even treat herself as a junior when facing Lilith, being very respectful and even guilty toward this vampire queen, while Lilith also carried a trace of special care in her sorrow when facing the God King.

In short, the relationship between the two was very complicated.

As for Lilith's daughter, that perfect True Ancestor Wolf...

Qiong hurriedly stopped her thoughts and didn't dare to think too much.

After all, she was right beside the God King, okay? Thinking too much about taboos is really a bit of courting death.

And the gaze came to White Hei Wuchang miss's side.

After hearing this question asked by her beloved sister, the smile on Dinisha's face also stiffened, and she frowned, but fortunately, it soon relaxed again.

"Dorothy, why bother to make some things too clear?"

She opened her mouth and said so.

The shepherdess miss obviously didn't really want to answer this question.

But Dorothy did not retreat.

"Sister, this is very important to me. That is my sister."

The Home Witch stared at Dinisha without giving an inch, her eyes very serious.

In the end, the shepherdess miss retreated under her eye offensive.

Forget it, who let this be her most beloved sister?

Although she was actually quite unhappy that her sister had a new sister and cared so much about the other party, this stupid sister had this personality, valuing relatives above all else.

"Fine, I'll tell you. She is indeed your sister, but the sister you have now is not her."

Dinisha answered so.

Damn it, sister, at this time, why are you still playing the riddle game?

The Home Witch's fists hardened, but she didn't dare to say anything more.

Fortunately, since the shepherdess miss had already spoken, there was nothing to hide, and she soon continued to explain.

"Lilith's daughter is named Cerberus, a cunning magic wolf with three heads. The Alice you have now is one of her heads."

Hiss, ah this...

Alright, no wonder Alice, this stupid sister, has a muscle brain; it turns out she only has one-third of a brain left.

The first thought that popped into her mind was actually this.

"Then what did she do back then?"

The Home Witch asked carefully again.

"Rebellion. She once tried to compete with the God King for the title of Witch King. Later, the war between the Witches and the Abyss also originated from her."

Dinisha said in a cold tone.

Dorothy: "???"

Wait, what did I hear? Good sister, are you sure you are talking about my stupid sister who only knows how to eat and be lazy?

She blinked her eyes, really unable to imagine that Alice, whom she watched grow up, had such a glorious past.

The Home Witch was stunned. ===== CHAPTER 901 =====
