The Release That Witch
Chapters 59's

"Honored Mentor!" When they saw Cara fall, all the witches around her started to panic.

"Idiot! Ahem ..." How to try to cover the wound with his hand; he could no longer feel the lower half of his body, "Quickly, go and kill the traitor for me!"

However, just then Nightingale who was carrying Wendy had already turned into a fading mist.

When they arrived back at the fork in the road, Nightingale realized that Wendy had fallen unconscious and her arm had turned black, poison spreading within her. Now, no doubt is allowed and every second counts. He gritted his teeth, tore off the sleeves around Wendy's injured arm, then used them to tie the arm as tightly as possible. Then, he took out a dagger from the sole of his boots, and opened Wendy's wound.

After less than half an hour later, he had cut off Wendy's arm. As long as her arms were not cut off, Nana would be able to heal her. When she had done everything she could do, Nightingale took out two ropes and tied Wendy on her back. As long as Nightingale could take Wendy to Border Town alive, Nana would be able to heal her completely.

But to keep him alive for so long .. is it possible?

He himself had already taken three days on the way here, but now while carrying someone he naturally needed longer. If he went faster and accidentally slid down the path, he wasn't sure if he could ride again.

Wendy's arm was still losing blood; she would never last three or four days, but Nightingale had no other choice. He would never be able to leave Wendy - after all, he was only injured because of her.

"Do you need help?" Suddenly, a voice sounded out of nowhere.

Nightingale was terrified and almost simultaneously opened up her own world of fog, and took a defensive position.

However, there was no one in front of him.

"You don't have to be nervous, I didn't come to fight."

As Nightingale looked up, she could actually see someone flying through the air. Then, he asked, puzzled, "Who are you?"

"My name is Lightning, I just joined the Witch Cooperation Association recently. Since I'm always gone, it's only natural that you don't know me." He tried to smile easily, "However, I know you, the famous Nightingale, Shadow Assassin ."

"What's the way to send you?"

"No, no, don't get me wrong," Lightning slowly descended down, putting her foot on the earth in the end, "I want to go with you."

Nightingale could not believe what she was hearing so she asked, "What?"

"You said, ah, we should have the right to freely choose our own way of life," Lightning paused for a moment and then said, "I chose to go with you, it's that simple."

"What ...?" Nightingale was completely disappointed by her sister's reaction; even Wendy had not fully believed her yet, but now this girl in front of her - she was actually still a child, around fourteen or fifteen years old, like Nana. She has short blonde hair that is fresh and neat, a face full of vigor, and speech and confidence that is not appropriate for her age. Also, she did not wear the usual uniform of the Witch Cooperation Association. Instead, she wore a set of trousers tailored to her personal preferences, with many pockets and patches. This can also be said about his antique leather jacket. The last part of his clothes was a rough-looking belt tied around his waist, only God knew where he took it. At first glance, this looks like a man's outfit.

What kind of reason is this ... Nightingale was shocked, and she could not make a sound, but even in this kind of awareness she could still tell that Lightning was not lying.

"I don't understand ... If you want to become an adventurer, why did you leave the Witch Cooperation Association and join me?"

"Not an adventurer, I want to be an explorer!" Lightning stressed, "I'm not one of those who are just driven by money, who say they are risk takers, but in reality just doing the dirty work of others. Explorers only act out of interest! Are you asking why I am? not wanting to be with the Witch Cooperation Association .. "clearly Lightning confidently," who was looking for the Sacred Mountain, which should be the dream of every explorer? Way of not understanding the spirit of adventure, he was fully immersed in the old book, only looking along the way for the characteristics described in the ancient book. He walked through the Mountains just looking for the two weathered pillars emerging from the ground. If this was the way he did it, he would never find the true holy mountain. My father always emphasized on the point that an explorer should honestly take note of everything they see when looking for a good horse using only pictures! That's how an explorer has to deal with this problem.

Although Nightingale was anxious to find out what kind of father would teach such ideas and raise a very strange daughter, now was not a good time to chat. However, Wendy's life is threatened. Since he did not intend to hurt, additional helpers would be rewarded.

In the end Nightingale simply asked, "Your ability to fly?"

"Alright," Lightning nodded and said proudly, "I can even carry the two of you, and flow forward forever, like the wind."

"Then I have to trouble you." Nightingale made sure that Wendy was firmly tied to her back and then she held Lightning's shoulder, and wrapped her hands around Lightning's chest .

"Uh .. very heavy." Lightning gritted her teeth, and slowly climbed upwards, "I guess we might not be as fast as the wind."

......

So, they begin their strange journey of form. When Lightning runs out, she will be carried by Nightingale, who takes everyone through her foggy world. When Lightning recovered physically, Nightingale would then climb onto Lightning's back, so that she could fly forward again.

When both are exhausted and forced to rest, Nightingale will take the time to ask some basic questions - for example, who is her father, or the situation with her family.

Lightning says that her father is the greatest explorer in the world and she even travels across the ocean. He has a fleet of oceanic sails and is affectionately called Thunder by his crew. However, he had lost his mother when he was very young, so he did not have many memories of her. While on a sea voyage, his ship ran aground and capsized during a storm. Lightning is lucky and is rushed to an island by the ocean currents, but she loses all contact with her father. On the island, Lightning uses the knowledge and skills her father taught her to survive, nearly spending two months alone on the island before she wakes up during the winter.

With his new abilities he flew west across the channel south of Graycastle. After going through many setbacks, he finally joined the Witch Cooperation Association. He felt that as long as he held on to exploration, he would one day be able to find a miracle and see his father again - as long as he was alive.

Nightingale did not get much useful information from this dialogue. His ability could only be used to discern if the other party was lying, but he was unable to determine the authenticity of the spoken content. In other words, as long as others say that the sun is square and do not doubt it, its capabilities will still show that they are telling the truth.

However, there is actually some information that can be concluded. For example, he must have been born into a wealthy family - a family struggling with poverty would not have had time to explore. The fact that his father owned a naval fleet is also consistent with this assessment. Therefore, Thunder's true identity might be that of a wealthy ocean crossing entrepreneur. Lightning had blond hair, unlike the descendants of the Kingdom on the mainland and was more like the sea people from across the fjord.

Wendy woke up a few times. During these times, Nightingale would always try to let her drink as much water as possible, but after drinking, she lost her consciousness again. Nightingale could feel Wendy's body temperature getting lower. This made Nightingale feel even more anxious.

The two had no other alternative but to hurry, and the path that usually took three days was to take them a day and a half to complete. At the entrance, the horses the prince had left for them were still tied to the ground, and the haystack in front of them was still half eaten.

Nightingale rode one horse while carrying Wendy and let her run, followed by Lightning as she rushed nonstop towards Border Town.
