Chapter 21 The Enemy Witch

◎Werewolves are the enemies of witches in mythology, and the church is their mortal opponent◎

Compared to being familiar with werewolves, Dill only knew a little bit about the church. Werewolves were the enemies of witches in mythology, while the church was their mortal opponent.

The church advocates that there is only one true God in the mainland, the Supreme God. He created the sun, the earth, and the sea. Therefore, the Supreme God wears a crown of the sun, wears a robe of lapis lazuli, stands barefoot on the green marble ground, and integrates all things in the world.

Witches with many blessings from goddesses dismissed this. Only Amber specifically told her that firm faith will not lose to magic. The church and witches are actually no different.

But Dill never imagined that a knight's oath really has the power to bless others. She curiously thought about the option of accepting or not. She wondered if it was because of [divinity] that made her immune to all blessings and curses below divine magic. She could still choose whether to accept it or not?

What kind of existence is that supreme god? If he knew that his followers were courting a moon witch, would they both be struck down by justice from heaven later?

In fact, according to the beautiful silver-haired witch Mida, a loyal believer is willing to offer you all the glory that best reveals the moon god. Among her many lovers, a monk from the church was the longest-lasting, and their love was a platonic love through letters.

But Dill finally rejected Mucha.

She acted unconcerned, like any ignorant stranger who thinks of werewolves as some ridiculous bedside story.

Dill could clearly see the disappointment and decline in Mucha's eyes. For a moment she felt a trace of regret, but she really didn't want to be on guard against Mucha and use him to protect herself at the same time, let alone in a situation where werewolves might really exist. .

The knight's sword is used to protect the common people. She is a witch and a child raised by the moon goddess. She should not have anything to do with the knight of the supreme god. Just like the knight card in the Great Fable can kill the witch card, most of the church is against Witches are not friendly; some radicals even believe that witches and werewolves are believers of the devil. Once a witch is discovered, she should be "purified" immediately. Even the most devout Luna believers have no interest in becoming Joan of Arc.

Dill doesn't believe in the fairy tale of love at first sight. Human life here is at stake, so pleasure and the pursuit of love are respected. Mucha's shallow and clean goodwill will only be crushed to pieces under the boulder of faith.

The young man's heartbeat is surging, and he is fearless because of his ignorance, just like the waves that hit him unexpectedly, or the hot and scorching sun. It would be a lie to say that he has no feelings, but now Dill is always wary of his strength and sensitivity.

The Silver Knight is the sanctioning sword of the Supreme God. Once she discovers that she is a witch... Dill even feels that dying at the claws of a werewolf is better than dying at the hands of the young man's grief-stricken silver sword.

Mucha has her own responsibilities, and she also has her own responsibilities: Amber, Cole and her daughter, or the werewolf, both of them must play their roles well.

In the awkward silence, the big white goose, as usual, ignored the atmosphere and stepped ashore on the soaked anthurium.

It spread its wet wings on both sides, and Dill immediately knew what this down goblin wanted to do.

She stretched out her hand to pull Mu Xia back, but the person beside her moved faster, and the blue cloak with the refreshing breath of grass quickly wrapped the girl in it.

Through a thin layer of cloak, Dill heard the flapping of wings and the splashing of water. The ankles that could not be covered by the cloak seemed to be soaked in the beach.

The young man's voice sounded muffled: "Although I can't protect your safety, at least please let me protect your clothes."

Dill wrapped into rice dumplings: What did the Supreme God teach these children?

She pulled down the cloak and saw the knight who was soaked wet. She sighed and put the cloak back on with her backhand.

Mucha didn't care. He wiped the moisture with the hem of his cloak. His wet blond hair was combed back casually, and the silver armor was gleaming with dew. At the same time, it also illuminated the master's eyes with a clear green. The falling water drops are like drizzle, watering the grass on the ground.

The young knight leaned against the stream stone and stood erect. He didn't need to speak or make any movements. Just the shadow cast by his standing made people feel at ease as if they were standing under a big umbrella.

Gentle and handsome, Dill thought this was really a perfect knight. She could see him standing in the solemn and dignified temple with a silver sword in his hand from the young man's tall and straight figure, and she could also hear the afterglow of the hymn accompaniment of the harp from his clear and prudent vows.

That was another world completely different from hers.

Dill thought it was time to say goodbye to the other party. When she spoke, the other party also spoke at the same time.

"Ah...you go ahead and say it."

"Ah, no, that..."

"Quack quack quack quack!"

"If you don't mind, let me talk first." The uninvited guest suddenly interrupted.

Mrs. Cole really didn't want to disturb such a beautiful moment. The sunset, the green grass by the lake, and the boys and girls expressing their feelings to each other reminded her of the day she met her husband.

She glanced at Dill. The girl's face was as red as an apple and she didn't dare to look up at all. However, the silver knight stood in front of the lady very gracefully. God, this had to be the most handsome kid she had ever seen.

"Ms. Cole."

Mrs. Cole only felt that she was being called several years younger. She liked Dill very much, and she wished from the bottom of her heart that this lonely and lovely girl could blossom with the young and promising knight and take root in a foreign land, just like she and her husband.

But business still had to be done. Mrs. Cole informed them: "The mayor has just come here and wants to invite all outside guests to have dinner at the church in the town."

Dill didn't dare to raise her head until Mrs. Cole left, but she happened to meet Mucha's solemn gaze.

"Prayer night. It's a tradition in the town. I've vouched for you, but it seems they still can't let go of their doubts."

Seeing Dill's puzzled expression, he explained: "Werewolves appear every few years. They think werewolves are brought by outsiders, so they will regularly summon outsiders to investigate, or simply watch you and not let you spend the night alone. "

To put it simply, it is the trial before dark.

Dill's heart sank. This was indeed the most reasonable explanation at the moment. There seemed to be invisible weirdness spreading beneath the surface of reality.

The lake surface flashed with dazzling blood, and Dill couldn't help but look at the sun that was gradually setting in the west. The deep night began to penetrate from the edges, and at the same time, there were layers of veils covering the core truth.

"Let's go together. As a Silver Knight, I am also invited to attend."

Mucha kept a certain distance. Dill had no reason to refuse and nodded to him gratefully.

Turnip stumbled as she followed, while Dill reached out and held the big white goose in her arms. The two of them walked side by side on a trodden path.

Thoughts move with the footsteps.

They are not human wolves. Human wolves can only transform during the full moon, and they cannot escape the control of the werewolf. They will never be the king alone. The elf told her before: it was a black wolf.

Dill knew that all her preparations were for this day. The knowledge taught by the witches was like dead parchment, and the werewolves were living demons.

No one stipulates that a werewolf must harm domestic animals. Maybe he deliberately avoids animals to better cover up? Come every few years to reduce the danger of concentrated hunting? If so, it is indeed possible that all outsiders are werewolves in disguise.

It's really a werewolf that has become a spirit.

In fact, Dill seriously doubted that under the protection of [Goddess' Expectation B+] and [Ominous Omen A+], even if there was no werewolf at the beginning, one would be born to her out of thin air.

And if what the elf said is true, it is still a black wolf that symbolizes absolute disaster... As soon as you leave the Novice Village, do you have to fight a high-intensity boss copy?

Dill's heart sank, and she couldn't help but glance at Mucha. As a silver knight, it was impossible for him to not understand werewolves.

"Have you ever seen a werewolf with your own eyes?"

Mucha nodded, without squinting.

She asked tentatively: "Do they look scary?"

"It's the most evil thing I've ever seen in my life."

His voice was very soft and he didn't even move. The dew and moisture hanging on his shoulders and cloak seemed to be frozen at this moment. Dill could really feel the sharpness and coldness of the silver sword at his waist.

As soon as he finds a werewolf, the young man will definitely draw his sword and fight the werewolf to the death.

Now he looks like a veritable Silver Knight.

Dill was suddenly curious. If it was a witch, how would he answer?

The girl changed the topic: "What kind of person is the missing Sir Russell?"

Mucha seemed to come back from his thoughts. He sighed: "He is my most respected elder and the best warlock in the church."

Dill was stunned. She had heard of warlocks. If the silver knight showed the glory of the church, then the warlock was the shadow that protected the church.

Although the church denounces witches for practicing sorcery, there are also so-called alchemists within them who specialize in occult studies and find ways to restrain witches and werewolves. The silver bullet that can effectively kill the wolf king currently comes from the church.

If Mucha knew a warlock, it would not be strange for him to have some magical blessings.

Mucha didn't notice Dill's thoughtfulness. He continued: "The whereabouts of werewolves have been mysterious over the years. After Russell heard the legend here, he immediately asked the church for permission to investigate."

He couldn't hide his heaviness and said: "Half a year has passed and he has not come back."

Dill didn't know how to comfort him. She saw the familiar feeling of admiration in the other person's eyes. Sir Russell should be a father-like figure to Mucha.

"He is a knight. He must be fine. Has the mayor seen him?"

"I was planning to ask clearly today, let's go, right in front."

The white stone church is independent of all buildings. Fresh green vines and kudzu flowers climb up the wall. The stained glass windows on the wall cut out exquisite light and shadow. It was not difficult for Dill to find that the surrounding streets had been cleared. Bell men in black robes were patrolling the alleys. The black shadows floating by from time to time made people suspicious.

A goose-yellow velvet light shone through the glass windows of the church. Dill counted from the interlaced shadows, at least almost ten people... Thinking that there might be a werewolf lurking inside, she felt sourness rising from her empty stomach. The clanging sound of the knight's armor next to her made her feel like her stomach was being kneaded repeatedly by a hand.

The current situation is like a big exam that has been prepared for several years. I will temporarily tell you to take an extra subject: she has to find out the ferocious and cunning black wolf without being discovered by the Silver Knight.

The witch rubbed the familiar in her arms, and the soft feathers of the big white goose calmed her mood.

The two entered the restaurant one after another.

"Oh, it's finally here. I thought I would have to wait until dark before I could see anyone."

The man's uncontrollable laughter made Dill frown almost immediately. Sir Elder was actually there.
