The figure of the monster clump in front of them started laughing loudly as it felt the white light mixed with chocolate that Veister released reacting to his body.
White smoke mixed with black seemed to come out from the monster's body and began to reveal a little white robe. Emperor Aradi da the imperial knights stared at everything in silence.
“Hihi .. interesting! It seems that your power has returned completely. However, has your memory returned?”
Veister flinched and strengthened his magic upon hearing the statement of the figure before him. The sound of laughter echoed back to the rest of the room, his sharp teeth began to disappear and the silhouette of a human body began to be seen.
“I look forward to your best fight, Holy Witch. Don't lose it again. Hihihi ..”
The figure of the monster blob disappeared changing shape into the body of the Imperial Chief Aksario who instantly fell unconscious. His hands and feet contained black traces of burning marks and the veins on his neck appeared black in color.
Veister continued to cast his magic, while Windy had already dispelled his whirlwind. The white butterfly flew towards Veister and alighted on the hood of his silver-black robe.
Veister's two-colored bead narrowed when he saw the body condition of Aksario's witch head back to normal. The imperial knight immediately rested the body of the head of the magician Aksario as Veister removed his protective magic. Emperor Aradi who was standing behind Veister looked at the back of the holy witch and looked back at the body of the head of the magician Aksario.
“It ... great purification power. Are all these monsters from humans? You can purify all monsters?” the Emperor asked Aradi to approach Veister.
“No. A monster is a monster, a person is just an object of experiment. Witch Head Aksario was only lucky because she changed right in front of my eyes and there were still human traces on her body.”
Veister glanced at Windy who was above his head and looked at Emperor Aradi who was standing beside him.
“Why can you realize it?” asked Emperor Aradi saw the imperial knight carrying the body of the Imperial Witch Head Aksario out of the room towards the imperial dungeon.
“Actually I've been watching her behavior for a long time. One month ago in a meeting I saw black blood flowing at the corner of her lips as she coughed. Then a strange energy that revolved in his body and also two contrasting and opposite expressions.”
Emperor Aradi nodded at Veister's explanation.
“What happened to the witches when I disappeared? Why face the attack of black magician control alone they can't afford?” veister asked after a long silence.
Emperor Aradi looked at Veister and sighed as he replied softly, “That's a long story, Master Witch. In short, our witches have been weakened since you disappeared and finished building the protective wall. Witch Head Aksario is the only strongest witch we have.”
Emperor Aradi added that they also lost many witches after the construction of the imperial protective wall. Veister's disappearance as a great holy witch and the slaying of the saintess of nature gave rise to a great side of weakness and made it easier for monsters and black magicians to trick them.
The Witch Chief Aksario was the only witch to save the empire with some of his students who survived the attacks of black magicians and monsters. Aksario Arnoldi becomes the head of the witch followed by her student's son and the new witches that appear.
One month later when Emperor Aradi again met with the Witch-Head of Aksario, the silver eyes of the Emperor caught a different thing from the Witch-Head as well as the absence of his disciple's son who usually always followed him. Since then the relationship between Emperor Aradi and the Witch-Head of Aksario has not gone smoothly and the witch's head has always denied following his plans resulting in casualties or damage to the territory.
Veister nodded upon hearing the emperor's explanation and immediately resigned himself to returning to Rizery's territory. The young man in black-silver robes was about to cast a teleportation magic spell, but was stopped by the actions of Emperor Aradi.
“I hope you don't leave again, Mr. Witch. Thank you for returning to this empire.”
Emperor Aradi slightly bowed respectfully looking at the silent Veister with the unexpected actions of an emperor. The young man with two-colored eyes nodded and smiled.
The young man asked the Emperor Aradi to prepare himself and convey all information related to the actions of the Witch Chief Aksario as long as he was not around.
Veister immediately used a teleportation spell towards Duke Rozery's territory. The young man with two-colored eyes immediately headed for his room and threw his body on the soft mattress. Windy immediately flew around him and used soundproof white magic around the room.
“Are you okay?”
Veister shook his head when he heard Windy's soft voice ringing around the room. The white butterfly kept flying around the room and came to a halt in the bedroom window overlooking the garden of the Rizery family mansion.
“There's still no news about the girl?”
Windy's voice came back as the white butterfly flew back to the nearby Veister who was still lying on the bed. The young man with two-colored eyes shook his head and looked at the ceiling of the room above him.
Her memories replayed the memory of one week ago, Laveron who kept insisting on finding the whereabouts of her sister without a break. The young man's face was already pale with eye bags that were increasingly clearly visible.
Leister who was tired of Laveron's stubbornness only let the young man back walk towards his horse. However, just a few steps the young man's body with the navy's eyes lost its balance and fell towards the ground. It was fortunate that Leister who had quick reflexes managed to catch Laveron and immediately took the young man to his room.
Veister who had just returned from refining his magic power fell silent when Laveron asked him to heal himself. The young man with navy eyes kept urging him. Leister's annoyed voice did not undermine his intention to continue urging Veister to use healing magic.
“I just want to find Ivew as soon as possible. A month has passed, Veister. We don't know what happened during that time, I don't want to take any chances, Veister.”
Veister scrunched his forehead as he recalled Laveron's sentence back then. The young man with two-colored eyes got up to sit up and looked at Windy who was still flying nearby. The young man frowned again as he recalled the statement of the figure controlling Witch Head Aksario, a sigh came back out of his mouth as a feeling of misgivings filled his soul.
“Hei Windy's. What did I forget? Why do I feel like something is missing? Why is my memory suddenly gone?”
