Chapter 567: This is Different from What We Agreed...

Angela originally only wanted to slightly punish these guys.

Especially that captain, looking like he understood everything, just looking at him made people angry.

That's why after the Soul Siphon connected to the captain and the others, she adjusted the gear to gear one to cruise.

She didn't expect that these idiots would actually directly charge at her under the other party's call.

Obviously, barring any accidents, that captain should know about this skill of hers.

After all, the other party had revealed a look of understanding more than once just now.

But this was it?

Rushing to their deaths?

At first, when Angela saw these people charging up preparing for close combat, she didn't quite understand.

Oh, right!

What the other party knew was probably [Soul Siphon] and not her own improved [Soul Absorption: Youth Impact Wave Type 1].

Since that was the case, she wouldn't hold back either.

After all, the other party's death was more important than anything right now.

Thus, Angela tugged the light rays connected to her fingers.

"Ah~~!"

The charging Avian people instantly felt as if their bodies were being torn apart by a pair of invisible giant hands, the pain unbearable.

"What's going on!"

"Cap...tain! Save me!"

The immense pain made a few Avian people unable to maintain their proper flight postures anymore.

Some barely supported themselves, crying out to their captain for help, while more simply plummeted straight down.

If these ordinary two-winged Avian people were like this, their captain naturally wasn't faring much better.

However, no matter what, he was four-winged.

Having two more wings than others meant he had to be slightly sturdier.

But only 'slightly'.

The instant his soul was tugged, the captain was actually more clear-headed compared to the pain of the others.

Only, this clear-headedness didn't buy him anything.

Instead, it made him clearly understand what was happening to his body.

His soul was being torn apart.

As someone who knew this light ray was a magic used to create alchemical materials like soul crystals, he never expected that this creation could actually be accomplished with such forceful means.

Then what about his friend?

Why didn't he encounter this kind of thing?

"This... is different from what we agreed..."

The captain shed tears of remorse, while also speaking his final words as his dying breath.

What calculations, what stalling, what making people see his efforts and then obtaining a supreme reward; all of it became nothingness in this moment.

But Angela, the initiator of this, had no intention of letting him go.

At the same time the captain died, Angela quickly stored his corpse and the soul crystal, along with those of the closest squad member, into her card.

What a joke.

Thinking of running away after arousing a witch's interest?

That was impossible.

"Bastard! What are you doing!"

Just as Angela was considering whether she should slip away, a loud shout came from behind.

Angela turned her head to look, only to find another squad of Avian people flying towards her.

Holding javelins in their hands, they had even assumed throwing postures.

Of course, the one leading the squad was still a four-winged Avian person.

Right now, this captain was also extremely furious.

Originally, after receiving the news of the witch invasion, he took it very seriously.

After all, their Angel Race and the Witch Race could be said to have a mortal enemy relationship.

But on the way over, after hearing that the enemy was only one person, he relaxed quite a bit.

As an Avian person who also participated in the Forsaken Territory aerial battle, he had also fought with witches back then, and had even killed one.

Although that witch resurrected later, there was no doubt that his experience fighting witches was definitely richer than most people's.

Plus, a friend who had also participated in the aerial battle like him had already led a squad over, so he didn't panic much.

However, when he led his people and arrived at the scene, he happened to see the scene of his friend free-falling, and the witch storing him and another clansman into a card.

First of all, knowing that cards couldn't store living creatures, those stored inside were definitely dead.

In other words, his friend, his comrade-in-arms, was killed by the witch right in front of him, not to mention being stored away in a card.

How could this not make him feel angry.

So after shouting loudly, he took the lead and assumed a javelin throwing posture.

And after seeing their captain's action, the members of his squad also followed suit.

And then...

And then they followed in the footsteps of the previous squad of Avian people.

Even the process in between was largely similar, to the point where even the 'villain' Angela felt it was somewhat boring.

In terms of individual combat capability, witches were originally superior to Avian people.

Adding the buff of the Tourism Department, which had the strongest individual combatants among the witches, this made Angela feel as if she had entered an unpopulated land in this forest.

Truly reaching the point of a madman.

Going wherever she wanted to go.

But after doing this kind of battle continuously four or five times, and killing four or five squads of arriving Avian people, Angela grew tired of it.

Extremely bored, Angela simply stopped, throwing out her goats and letting them run wild here.

While she herself took a leisurely stroll in this forest inhabited by a large number of Avian people.

Of course, the so-called stroll wasn't actually a real stroll.

Don't forget, she was a member of the Tourism Department tasked with collecting intelligence.

Since she had accidentally stumbled upon this place where Avian people lived, she had to investigate it properly.

It also just happened to satisfy her curiosity about this place, which could be described as killing two birds with one stone.

As for those other guys, because there were now seven goats running wild in the forest, those squads that came to snipe the intruder all went to deal with the goats.

Goats, it was a very normal thing for them to be able to leap among the trees, right?

So the Avian people were very busy now.

In addition, after releasing the goats, Angela changed into another set of clothes, plus wings 'borrowed' from other Avian people, making Angela look exactly like a real Avian person now.

Although she was flying using a Flying Broom.

As for how this guy attached the 'borrowed' wings to her body, one could only say 'Alchemy is omnipotent'.

A portable alchemy array, some small materials, plus a little bit of knowledge of Biological Thaumaturgy.

Achieving temporary adhesion wasn't a difficult task at all.

Of course, if one wanted to achieve perfect fusion like a chimera, then what was needed would definitely be more than this.

Only, Angela didn't need any perfect fusion right now.

She hadn't even thought about it.

For them witches, it was nothing to use this kind of thing in research or on familiars.

But if it was to be used on themselves, they needed to be a bit careful.

After all, not everyone could achieve the level of Elisa from the White Witch faction; one wrong move and it was easy to suffer a backlash.

So, as long as it could be used temporarily, that was enough; there was no need to overthink anything else.

"Hmm! That place looks somewhat suspicious."

Shuttling through the chaotic forest, Angela saw a squad of people ignoring the troublemaking Black Goats, instead heading towards a tree in the distance that was larger than the surrounding trees, so she decided to follow them and take a look.
