Chapter 1611: Witch Council Meeting

~11 min read 2,002 words

Friday, before dawn, 4:57 AM. Witch Council.

The light of unknown origin shone from the white fog at a high place toward the bottom, and at the bottom of the ancient stone steps gathering toward the middle, beside the round table, the late-night meeting was still going on.

"So the arrangement for the action in the Green Lake area is temporarily decided like this.

Vanessa and Galina still follow the original plan to go to the Green Lake area according to their identities; Xiwei, don't use your real identity to go this time, the church's investigation of the Great Witch has begun to target you. It is indeed suspicious that you have appeared wherever the Chosen One appears in the past year; Grandma Cassandra, please arrange your actions yourself, thank you very much for being willing to participate in this action, actually you don't have to do these things. As for Emma, since Princess Margaret is not sure whether to go to Green Lake to participate in the negotiations, you choose a suitable time and secretly hide your identity to go to Green Lake."

The tall blonde witch sat in the main seat at the round conference table of the 【Witch Council】. Looking from behind the stone chair symbolizing the "Speaker" status, one could only see the symbol representing "Time" engraved on the chair and her soft long hair.

On her left and right sides, the twelve ladies sitting at the round table nodded together:

"Yes, Speaker Isabella."

The witch's voice was very gentle, with a unique affinity, but without losing majesty:

"I want to emphasize again that we did indeed do too much in Randall Valley some time ago. This preliminary investigation will be led by Audrey who is already there, and Galina and Vanessa who arrive later will assist. Grandma, Xiwei, and Emma, don't set off until the preliminary investigation is completed and things have further fermented. The Mirror Hider mentioned by Audrey, the thirteen-ring diviner of the Divination Association mentioned by Galina, these people are not easy to deal with, I hope everyone remains elegant and does not lose their demeanor because of carelessness."

After a moment of pause:

"The fifth item on the agenda is over, does anyone have other items or thoughts? If not, the meeting is adjourned."

"I have something to say!"

Said the red-haired Duchess sitting in the "balance" position. Galina Cavendish was wearing a purple robe. Seeing everyone looking at her, she opened her mouth and said:

"I just have a question, why do we have to keep meeting until four o'clock in the morning, no, it's already five o'clock!"

It could be seen that the Duchess cared about this very much:

"Poor sleep is very harmful to the skin!"

Her opinion was supported by most of the ladies. When the Great Witches began to discuss, the witch of "Time" in the Speaker's seat raised her hand and clapped twice. Looking from behind the back of the chair, one could see that there were no rings on her white hands.

The voices of the Great Witches stopped immediately.

"The meeting started at ten o'clock last night. I didn't expect so many things this time, except for Emma's new inventions and business, Vivi's illness, and the news of the Angel-level relic reported by Visenna. Galina and Audrey both raised the issue of the thirteen-ring warlock in the Green Lake area. Of course, there is also the new gifted one of the Cavendish royal family. I still need to consider this matter."

She paused:

"I agree with Galina's point of view, lack of sleep is indeed harmful to the skin. But, the meeting is still very important, isn't it?"

Her voice was gentle, but the ladies at the table felt threatened, and only Grandma Cassandra still had a kind smile on her face.

"The meeting is adjourned now. If there are other things, remember to leave a message in the council, and I will see it. Also, Audrey, is your illness better?"

She asked the Great Witch of "Knowledge and Wisdom" again, so the lady with brown shoulder-length hair nodded gently:

"Speaker, I'm fine, and I will be fully recovered soon."

"That's good, being able to escape from the hands of 【Mirror Hider】 also proves that you are better than we thought. If you need anything, don't be stingy about asking others for help."

She stood up, picked up the notebook and fountain pen on the table, and walked toward the light door that appeared behind the chair first.

After she really left, the remaining witches packed up their things and left one after another. The girls talked to each other, while Audrey Edwards, the Great Witch of Knowledge and Wisdom, signaled Galina Cavendish, the Great Witch of Balance, to stay, and Emma Sylvia, the Great Witch of Space, also pretended to pack things and didn't leave immediately, after all, she had the most things on the table.

Vanessa Benanis, the Witch of Earth, patted Galina's shoulder and left with Xiwei Aphrola, the Great Witch of Light. The council became quiet, and the inexplicable sky light sprinkled from the ancient stone steps extending upward layer by layer until it merged into the white fog. The light was very soft, making the ladies' handsome faces even more clear.

Audrey Edwards glanced at Sylvia, who deliberately didn't leave, and then said to Galina:

"Just now there were some things I didn't tell the Speaker the truth."

The Duchess tilted her head:

"What is it?"

"In the Green Lake area, I met a helper. A very powerful helper... although it was only middle-ring, I was able to escape from the Mirror Hider thanks to him, I mean, thanks to her."

Sylvia glanced at Galina, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and the red-haired witch nodded calmly:

"Is it to let me reach the Green Lake area and meet her, and then not tell the Speaker about her existence? No problem, but..."

She showed a teasing smile:

"Audrey, are you in love? Tell me about that girl."

The witch with brown short hair pursed her lips:

"Duke, I'm not joking with you. When you arrive in the Green Lake area, I will talk to you in detail. That place is not very peaceful, and the negotiations between the two countries have also strengthened the church's vigilance. Regarding the Mirror Hider and the thirteen-ring diviner, sooner or later others will know. And that island... my family is not that simple."

"Oh, since last year, I have participated in almost every Chosen One's matter, you don't need to remind me of these. Audrey, in your heart, what do I do on weekdays? Attend boring afternoon tea parties and salons in the palace?"

Galina was just joking, but Audrey Edwards thought for a while and really gave an answer:

"In my imagination, you spend most of your time in your own territory, hugging beautiful female minstrels in the palace."

Sylvia, who was listening to the conversation, still couldn't help but laugh, but no one looked at her. Galina's mouth twitched a few times:

"This is the Sixth Era ring warlock scholar's wrong understanding of the Fifth Era witch emperor. And I am not that idle, and I have to remind you of a common-sense mistake—Saladi County is still Darian territory, not my private territory. As for beautiful female minstrels... I don't have this in Tobesk City."

She only had handsome knights in Tobesk.

Audrey Edwards didn't commit:

"You don't have to give me the final payment for the cat in the bottle. The production of that potion is also very helpful to me. When you arrive in Green Lake, I will talk to you in detail about the situation there. I will do the preliminary investigation myself. Also, there is the matter of the twelfth level. I want to talk to you about what exactly happened when you broke through from the eleventh level to the twelfth level."

Galina nodded:

"Then see you in Green Lake."

Audrey Edwards then got up and left.

Only two people were left in the council. Sylvia put her left arm on the round table of the council to support her face, tilted her head and asked the Duchess:

"She met Xia? That very powerful middle-ring 'lady'."

Saying that, she showed a smile again. Except for Galina, no one knew that Xia was in Green Lake recently.

"Yes, you guessed it right. Where there is trouble, there is Xia, and where there are witches, there is also Xia."

The red-haired witch said, and anyone could understand the emotion in her tone:

"She still has concerns now and didn't tell Xia clearly who she is. I'll let Xia play role-playing games with her for a few weeks. She's so old, yet she still pretends to be a little girl."

"So, is the Chosen One of Space really in Green Lake? Who do Xia and Luweiya Anate suspect it is?"

Sylvia asked again.

"Edwards, everyone in Edwards, including Audrey and Megan."

"Oh? You mentioned both her real name and fake name... is it like this? Very interesting."

The youngest Great Witch of this generation was thoughtful:

"Let Xia be careful too. I can't imagine how he and Audrey escaped from the Mirror Hider. Although it's not the first time he has stepped into danger..."

Sylvia sighed, packed the documents on the table into a kraft paper bag, and suddenly asked again:

"Speaking of which, Galina, your complexion looks very good recently, are you using new cosmetics?"

"Is it?"

Galina touched her face with a smile:

"It's not cosmetics, this shows that the method in Xia's 【Secret of Immortality】 has taken effect."

"Is it just this?"

Sylvia raised her eyebrows:

"Also, although you just promoted to the twelfth ring and twelfth level, recently I feel that your power is rapidly approaching Xiwei. Xiwei Aphrola has stayed at the twelfth level for five years."

"This shows that my talent is better than everyone thought. Didn't the Speaker also say that my recent state is very good?"

But the Great Witch of Space would not believe such words:

"You... didn't happen anything with Xia?"

Golden eyes looked at golden eyes, and the council suddenly became quiet. Sylvia tried to see something in Galina's eyes, but the Duchess had received palace training since she was a child, and hiding her emotions was the most basic training content:

"Why would you think so?"

She retorted:

"You are tarnishing the reputation of witches, with men, ha, it's ridiculous. And we are sisters, our own people cannot lie to our own people."

"Is that so."

Sylvia nodded slowly:

"Then take it as I didn't say it, but your state is indeed beyond your original talent. This is also a good thing. Now, including you and Xiwei, there are already three twelfth-level people in the council. I don't know who will follow the Speaker's footsteps and break through to the thirteenth level first."

The red-haired Duchess pointed to herself confidently:

"That ice crystal given to Xia by the demigod witch is very helpful to me. The thirteenth level is not impossible for me."

Sylvia smiled:

"Then how is Xia recently? Besides being busy with Green Lake, is he doing other things? Say hello to Xia for me, I really envy that you can always be by his side."

The two talked about Xia's recent activities, and then Sylvia also left the council with her business and invention materials.

Galina Elena Cavendish sat in her seat, looking at the empty council illuminated by the soft white sky light, and sighed gently.

Afterward, she got up and prepared to leave. It was just that she turned around again and reached out to press the back of her chair. She looked around at the other twelve ancient chairs around the round table, and a smug smile appeared on her face.
