A Journey Of A Delusional Witch
Chapter 37: I Hate That Kingdom!

In an area in the Sanguine Kingdom, there was a city standing in the middle of a dense and hidden forest where the entire population was female.

No men were allowed to set foot in the city.

The name of the city is Ciel.

Home to the Witch Guild Sol Ciel.

Although located within the Sanguine Kingdom, the city of Ciel is included in the neutral area due to the duties carried by the Sol Ciel Witches themselves.

The Magicians from Sol Ciel had one main task. That is to be a mediator if there are kingdoms that are at odds with each other.

Thanks to their reputation for hundreds of years, Sol Ciel had always been expected to be a neutral party in every matter between kingdoms.

However, this time the case is quite special.

...

"Basic fucking narcissists!!!!"

Inside the house, or if it is more precisely called a castle located right in the middle of the city of Ciel, there is a very beautiful woman.

His hair and eyes were orange. Her smooth white skin looked blameless, her face that had the charm of a mature woman was able to make any man bend his knees before her.

His name was Asterids La Ciel. The second daughter of Cardinal La Ciel and mother of Rosemary La Ciel.

He is the next heir of Sol Ciel who now serves as the representative of the Cardinal.

In front of him were dozens of other Magicians (Witch) who could only be silent while shaking violently in the face of Asterids anger.

Although they knew that anger was not shown to them, but the aura that Asterids unleashed was able to make the person who had a Mana smaller than him speechless due to the pressure from the Mana he released.

"I know that they put beauty and beauty first compared to anything else.

BUT! Until getting rid of the others just because of the unwarranted envy and Inferiority Complex was already inexcusable again!"

Narsist Kingdom, as the name suggests, it was a country filled with people who put beauty first over everything.

For them to be beautiful and beautiful is the reason for their existence. If there are people who do not qualify their beauty, let alone stay, even setting foot in the kingdom is just a dream in broad daylight.

At first the desire for beauty is only limited to crafts art.

But, the more here the desire develops to a worrying stage.

Even worse, they dictated that their kingdom and the people of their people were the jewels of the world. Other kingdoms are nothing more than self-informed hypocrites.

So they raised the flag of war.

And their first target was the Sanguine Kingdom that was filled with a race that was long-lived and had beauty beyond the Human race.

Of course Sol Ciel had already tried to stop their ridiculous actions.

But what they got was...

"Heh, grannies like you have no right to speak before me! I'm sure the secret behind your ageless face is that you took the facial skin of an innocent young girl!"

Bang out!

The workbench that was supposed to be made of solid wood was instantly shattered after being hit by the Asterids who still remembered the words from Queen Narsist Kingdom that were said right on her own face.

Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok

While the Magicians were at a loss on how to calm their superiors' anger, there was a knock at the door.

"Who?"

"This is your daughter, Rosemary"

"Come in"

Rosemary gracefully entered the room. In his hand was an item with a shape resembling a crystal ball that emitted a whitish light.

When he got to his mother's side, he said...

"Mother, there's a message from grandma"

"Oh, finally there's news"

It's been over a month since Cardinal went on a mission from Queen Cascade. Since then he has never told me anything.

Since his table had already been smashed, Rosemary could only continue to hold the crystal ball in her hand.

The ball instantly emitted a dazzling light before finally showing a holographic-like image showing a little girl with dark red hair.

"Hello... Is this connected?"

His supposedly melodious voice sounded a bit strange because the crystal ball they used to communicate was not a good voice conductor.

"Mother, thank you for your hard work"

"Oh... It's connected well. Goodgood. So, Asterids, what's the situation there?"

The Asterids then explained to Cardinal everything that happened during her absence. He condensed it densely because there was a time limit when using the crystal ball.

"I see, so the damn kingdom's finally moving well"

Seeming to be thinking of something, no one in the room dared to make a sound out of fear of the consequences that would occur if they disturbed Cardinal's concentration.

Well, at least not in this room...

"She, hurry up and talk, my hands are sore!"

"Please, this is your own fault for living in such a remote place!"

Suddenly it was the voice of a stranger who boldly spoke loudly to Cardinal.

Almost all Witches are curious about the identity of people who have such guts.

Among all of them, only two people felt that the voice sounded familiar.

"Wait a minute, Lavy? That's Lavy's sister, right?"

"Hm? Oh, Mary, long time no see! Aunt Aster too, long time no see!"

Instantly the image shown by the hologram changes and shows a girl whose face is very similar to Rosemary just looks younger.

All the Magicians who were there were shocked by this.

They were all shocked at the existence of a figure very similar to their young miss. Especially how he interacted with Asterids and Rosemary who seemed very familiar.

Other than the senior Magicians, no one knew that Cardinal actually had two daughters, one of whom had gone to a faraway place. So most of the Witches in Sol Ciel thought that the Asterids were the only princess and Rosemary was the only grandchild.

"Oh, Lavender, long time no see. How's Orchid's doing, okay?"

"Mother? Take it easy, I'm fine and as energetic as ever"

Then they kept talking about what had happened. Although he was surprised by what Lavender had gone through, the conversation still continued warmly until it finally arrived

finally cut by Cardinal.

"Well, well, enough talk... This time we're going to war, right? Then I'll be home soon. Of course Lavender will come too"

"Wait, I'm happy but right..."

Suddenly the connection was cut off.

Rosemary who had been holding the crystal ball looked bathed in sweat and her face looked pale.

It seemed that he had run out of Mana to keep his connection.

"Well, Mother and Lavender will be home soon. You guys, room prep for Lavender. It's right next to Rosemary's room. Quickly carry!"

"Ready!"

After giving the order, Asterids was about to re-examine the documents on the table only to realize that his desk had been destroyed.

While waiting for the replacement table to be brought, Asterids spoke to his daughter who was now resting beside him.

"So, what do you think?"

"About Lavender?"

Asterids.

Rosemary seemed to think for a moment about what answer she had to say.

"I think it's still unbelievable that you can get here given Orchid's aunt's attitude towards witches. But I'm glad to finally be with my sister again"

"so... Goody"

A pair of mothers and children were chatting with each other until finally the replacement table was installed and they continued their respective work.

...

"Ha... Just a phone call why is it this late anyway?"

Leaning on the table with the les, Lavender never ceases to express his complaints about how to communicate that is less effective and cost-effective.

"As long as you know, it takes a fair amount of Mana to activate it and is usually only used to make brief reports, not family gossip"

Not caring for her grandson who was still lying on the table, Cardinal then immediately returned to her room intending to pack things as she was about to return home.

Not to forget he also ordered the Servant of Lavender, Lif to pack Lavender's belongings.

The day has passed and now morning has come.

Right in front of the Mansion, Cardinal and Lavender were ready to leave.

(Nature Creation)

Using her magic, Lavender created a four-wheeled horse-drawn carriage whose exterior looked luxurious and sturdy.

To pull it off, he summoned 4 gray horses each of whom had 8 legs.

They're called (Sleipnir).

The fourth (Sleipnir) Lavender called with help .

After tying them to the car, Cardinal and Lavender immediately went inside and found that the interior was quite comfortable with a chair made of wood and the holder was soft and coated by

the soft feathers.

Percy who served as a coachman immediately held the control rope and beside him was Zweite who served as his assistant.

Not forgetting, though, the twins who served as bodyguards sat at the back of the carriage while continuing to wiggle their legs out of excitement because for the first time they were going to travel a great distance.

To guard the house, as usual it was handed over to Lif.

"Master, hope your journey goes well"

After everything was ready, the train raced into the forest.

Of course there is no such thing as a highway in the middle of the forest which is also a Dungeon.

But somehow, the bumpy road they were about to walk through suddenly just became flat as well as the trees that should have prevented them from surprisingly moving on their own to open the road.

It is a pity that no one has been an eyewitness to this mystical event.

But, it won't last long...

...

Right at the entrance to the Dungeon, there was a crowd of Adventurers who were about to challenge Dungeon Ibis.

All this time Adventurers have been relentlessly flooding the Dungeon Ibis.

Their reasons varied, be it for the sake of leveling up, searching for materials, chasing after treasure boxes scattered in the forest, or having the ambition to conquer this new Dungeon.

Despite the sheer number of Adventurers available, only a few managed to defeat the first Boss and fewer were able to reach the second Boss that was in the Eastern forest.

For those less fortunate, they had instead strayed into the Western forest and had to be willing to die and lose some of their money and Equipment.

Although only one or two pieces of Equipment were lost, but they still lost because the Equipment lost was definitely the most expensive Equipment they had and the most difficult to obtain.

In some cases, there are those who deliberately do not bring money for fear of being lost if they die. However, instead they lost all of their Equipment and were only covered in leaves like on

statues in Rome as they come back to life.

Since then it has been decided that not bringing money is not an option.

Back to the entrance.

After being open for over a month, the forest entrance that was originally just a meadow has now transformed into an impromptu market filled with sales stalls selling various kinds of necessities to explore the Dungeon.

This is certainly already known by Lavender.

He actually did not like this because it seemed messy. But with the proposal of Mayor Lambert, Lavender as the host get tax money of 10% from the sale of merchants and kiosks

it is set to look more neat.

In addition to pleasing Lavender, this is very profitable for the City of Gata because now there is a new source of income that moves the wheels of the economy that has been declining due to closed access to the Ibis Forest.

The sellers were happy because they could fill their dining tables that day and the Adventurers were happy to shop around to be able to increase their chances of survival inside the Dungeon.

All of that went smoothly and peacefully until finally there was someone who was bothering them.

"Listen to the bottom of a bunch of perverts! In the forest is an evil witch who kidnaps and preys on children!"

What uttered that out loud was a stocky man wearing an expensive suit and the pungent fragrance of perfume could easily be smelled from his body full of sweat that would endlessly flow.

Anyone else who saw his appearance would have immediately likened him to a pig. Moreover, it is a kind of disgusting pig.

Even the Orcs, who were pig-headed Mobs would definitely be disgusted after seeing the pig in that expensive suit.

The pig is Baron Rukkus who is in charge of a remote village in the mountains not far from Gata City.

The reason why the mountain people seemed like they had come all the way here was none other than to look for trouble.

"Open your eyes! You have been deceived! The mayor of the city of Gata has conspired with the Witch for his own benefit! Didn't you guys see? Your equipment has been snatched, your money has been stolen.

Where do you think all that went!? Of course all your money and Equipment goes directly into that rotten man's pocket!"

The longer it takes, the more people swarm to see what is really going on.

However, no one realized that there was an owl watching with them.

Some of them seem to be starting to believe his words. But not a few of them assume that Baron Rukkus just make up. Especially with his appearance, not a little or even arguably almost all of the Otherworlders who were there had read novels depicting situations like this.

In their hearts they believed that sooner or later there must be someone who would appear and slap Baron Rukkus right in the face.

"If you still do not believe, then listen to the words of Bishop Sussy! Listen to his words and your eyes will open soon!"

While saying that, Rukkus pointed to an old woman in pure white religious attire.

He is Bishop Sussy. Sussy served in the church in the village where Rukkus ruled.

The reason why Sussy could be in such a remote place despite having served as a Bishop, was because he was not a good person and that was why he was exiled in such a remote village.

They had been friends for a long time so you could say they were conspiring.

In addition to Sussy, Rukkus also brought about 30 private soldiers with him. They were in charge of escorting Rukkus during his visit this time.

After all eyes were on him, Bishop Sussy began to speak...

"O sheep are lost... "Hey, there's a horse carriage coming out of the Dungeon!" ...!?"

Unhappy for being bullied, Rukkus and Sussy look towards the source of the commotion that has disrupted their stage.

Thanks to that they can't stop gaping.

What they saw was a mystical-looking horse carriage speeding by from within the Dungeon.

Two people were sitting in the driver's seat.

One was wearing an intimidating black Armor while next to her was a beautiful woman and gave the impression of being a friendly older sister.

If one looked at the back of the carriage, they would definitely see a pair of identical twin girls sitting around jokingly.

The view is certainly unusual.

However, what attracted the most attention was what attracted the horse carriage.

There are 4 tails (Sleipnir) that pull it.

It is common knowledge that (Sleipnir) is a special horse of the royal family or their relatives. Besides being difficult to breed them, their exorbitant prices were already able to drain the pockets of any noble who tried to buy them.

In the case of Rukkus, even if he were to give up all his wealth and sell his own territory, he would still be unable to buy even his children.

Seeing someone have 4 at once, certainly made him envious uncontrollably.

Just before he made a foolish move, someone shouted something.

"Hey, look! Isn't that the emblem of Sol Ciel?!"

Hearing this, everyone then focused on the horse carriage.

Sure enough, there was a sun emblem that was the hallmark of the most prominent Witch Guild, Sol Ciel.

Knowing this, Rukkus became sweating profusely and shaking violently.

Rukkus is not smart. But he's not stupid either!

Looking at such a luxurious carriage, knowing who it belonged to, and the fact that it came out from within a Dungeon inhabited by a Witch was more than enough for Rukkus to put it all together and

it scared him of his future.

Then, the thing he was most afraid of finally happened.

The horse-drawn carriage stopped not far from them. From inside, came out a Magician with dark purple hair and had a dazzling beauty.

With a cold look, the Witch said...

"Who of you dares to make a fuss in front of my house!!?"
