The Release That Witch

The Release That Witch
Chapters 105's


Echo was sitting at the highest point of the castle - on the roof of the watchtower, from where she could see through the entire city.


She could only reach the top thanks to Lightning taking her piggyback ride, now that she had to stay here until sunset, only the little girl would come back and bring her back. Right now, Lightning should already be on his way to Longsong Fortress.


The weather was very good today, the sun was shining brightly, and the river in the distance was visible under the sun like it was made of satin, it slowly flowed west and split the green foliage on one side and the snowy scenery on the other. Lying comfortably in the sunlight, she felt as if her entire body was being hugged warmly by the sun. This was completely unlike before in the extreme southern regions, where the scorching sunlight was so aggressive that it easily injured his skin.


Not even the wind was the same, he thought, all my life I've felt six different types of wind. A slightly salty sea breeze in the Port of Clearwater, while in King City I felt a hot and humid monsoon breeze, the, during my journey through the Unpassable Mountains we were constantly accompanied by the freezing cold North Wind. And now, in this Border Town, the breeze had a worldly scent. No matter what, the wind here was pure and independent.


In Ironsand City, the weather was so hot that there was no wind, or we were about to have a terrible storm. Then the wind became visible and the whirlwind mixed with the rocks and gravel, from afar looking like a giant black monster. Every time the wind blew, I had to hide inside a house or some other place that wasn't in the open. Nothing can stop the wind.


Echo still wants to vomit. And taking revenge when he thought about his past, nearly four years ago he left Ironsand City. Unfortunately, his Osha clan was defeated during a power struggle, his father was killed by their enemies even after he surrendered. Echo who witnessed all of this, wanted to rush to the enemy and knock him down herself, but at that moment she had been caught red-handed from behind.


He did not know how many members of his clan were still alive after these four years.


Before he was sold as a slave in the Port of Clearwater, he heard that his Osha clan had broken the sacred dueling agreement, and was now rejected by the Three Gods. Who then exiled them to the Endless Cape, never allowed to return to Ironsand City.


But the Echo knew that it was all a conspiracy by the Tibia clan, they had smeared black oil on their whips and as long as this oil lit up, not even water could extinguish it. It was this trick that caught his brother - the clan's strongest warrior - off guard in the duel, so he was burned alive, causing chaos in their team's formation.


In the Endless Cape, the only thing beside the hot sand was the constantly burning Mother Earthly Fire, which was even crazier than her brother, the Sea Emperor. Soon the people from his clan would turn into bones; but in the end, his fate as a slave was even more miserable.


When Echo awakens with her powers - she knows that she has become a witch. Naturally, he thought of revenge, but in the end his abilities were useless, he could only make a sound. No matter how much he pleaded with the gods, they never heard his prayers.


Six months later when he was living in the Port of Clearwater, he came to an understanding, the thought that they were loved by the three Gods was actually just a fraud of their own. Under the jurisdiction of the Church, all witches were hunted within the four Kingdoms. From that day on, Echo had completely given up on her hopes for revenge.


At this moment, smoke suddenly billowed from the distance. He looked at the East Bank of the Redwater River and he saw some green flame light burning through the trees. The black smoke from the burning trees mixed with the melted snow vapor forming a gray puff in the sky.


It was Anna's green flame.


When they arrived for the first time in Border Town, Wendy had told the sisters about Anna and Nana. When Echo heard about Anna's abilities, she was extremely envious.


Anna could freely manipulate the flames, it could even reach temperatures hot enough to melt the sword ... If he had such a powerful ability when he lived in Ironsand City, the people from the Tibia Clan would never be able to get injured.


Echo shook her head, this kind of thought was completely unnecessary, most likely her subjects had already turned into bones. Since he was still alive he could consider himself lucky. Since His Majesty is willing to accept it, he must complete the order given by His Majesty.


He cleared his throat and began to crochet the song according to the Prince's request.


It was a cheerful short song, the Prince only hummed the melody once, but he actually remembered the entire short song.


Music was nothing new to Echo, as a superior slave she was taught many things. Seductive dancing and flirtatious singing were skills he had to master. But the music given by His Majesty is completely different. Especially when he asked her to simulate the sound of the flute, each tone was like a pulsing beat, the people who heard this could not help but want to dance.


The difficulty lies in playing several instruments simultaneously, then there are also drums and stringed instruments added. So he had to simulate three different types of sounds at the same time, which overlapped each other. Something like this was something he had never done before. Previously he would never have believed that music could also be played this way!


At first, it was difficult for him to ensure that the drums did not disturb the rhythm of the flute, so Roland gave him a tip to play the beats with his hands or feet, and only then gradually began to combine the two.


After a few days of practice, Echo gradually mastered this type of music.


After playing it a few times he was confident enough to finally add it into the string instrument.


When Echo plays a new melody for the first time, she has to change the tone again a little –if the cheerful flute sound is the torso, the heated drum is the bone, the, and the last string that looked decorated was the soul. He improved the beats, over and over, until the three instruments were finally fully integrated, his voice getting higher and higher until he could not help himself to start singing


"My attack power is higher than yours, so this is my victory."


Roland placed his last card on the table, and Soraya who was sitting opposite him covered her face and said in a low voice.


"One more round," then he thought for a moment, and ruffled the cards. "Let me pick your ten cards this time."


"Alright," said the Prince coughed, "It's late, I still have some things to do, you should go to another."


After laying the foundation of the various cards, the next part is to copy the cards that have been found. With the template in front of him, Soraya's drawing speed was comparable to that of a printer. Soon, Roland got several copies of the same unit.


So it was only natural that Soraya became his first opponent.


After explaining the rules to him, the first card war began. During the game, he quickly learns that the thought process of the witches is very different from that of ordinary people. Soraya quickly found the right way to use the skill. After playing a few rounds, Roland could still win, but this was only due to using a few special cards. When Soraya asked him to make his own special card, he bashfully refused.


"Alright," said Soraya, then she took the card into her arms and ran towards the door. At this moment, a cheerful melody sounded through the open window. Hearing this Soraya stopped, turned around and ran to the window while looking outside, "What is Echo?”


"Well, it looks like he's really mastered it." Roland leaned back in his chair and admired the familiar music.


The first army of Border Town will soon enter the first stage of the comprehensive maneuver. Compared to the training of shooting while standing on the wall, comprehensive maneuvers will be carried out in the wild. At the same time as they moved across the wild, they had to hold their formation - always forming a line of fire.


To make the soldiers march at the same speed, he had to rely on drums and slogans. But now with Echo, he could simulate multiple instruments at the same time. Now they just need to learn English, then they can apply some famous marching sounds.


Compared to a simple drum, the marching song not only controls the marching speed, but also effectively improves morale. Of course, the most famous mars song was "The British Grenadiers", but Roland only knew his name, but he did not know the full song.


But this was not a problem for him, as long as he had a song for "The British Grenadiers", he could always rearrange his lines later.


During the "War of Resistance", the voice could be heard throughout the country, north and south of the Yangtze River. And almost everyone is familiar with the melody, after all, it is the famous "Guerrilla Song.


When Soraya turned her head towards the Prince, she heard the Prince following the song, singing softly. She sings in a language she has never heard before, but still, the melody and lyrics match each other perfectly.


“We are all snipers,”


“Each bullet kills an enemy.”


We are all winged soldiers,


Not afraid of high mountains and deep waters.


“In the dense forest,”


Our comrades set up their camp.


“In high mountains,”


Countless of our brothers were there.
