Chapter 707: 225. Solidifying Happiness_3
“Splish~” A faint sound of water came from the nearby sea surface.
Selena emerged from the nearby seawater:
“Jarvis, I’ve finished cleaning up the traces of the battle.”
Noland Lee snapped back to reality, speaking to the other side:
“Thanks, Selena. Wait for me a moment. There’s something else I need to take with me.”
Noland Lee gestured for Selena to follow him, flying to the location of the grey metal box and digging it out of the soil.
“What’s this?” Selena furrowed her eyebrows slightly.
She sensed faint traces of life from the box, along with the subtle presence of Rebirth Magic Power and fluctuations of Metal Magic.
“Plin’s Companion Witch.” Noland Lee took out a cloth wrap, put the box in it, and carried it with him:
“Let’s go back. We’ll go directly to your study and discuss the follow-up matters. Also, let’s go underwater.”
“Okay, I have a way to enter my study directly from the Magic Ocean Current. Follow me.”
Selena withdrew her thoughtful gaze from the metal box, summoned a Water Curtain, and wrapped herself and Noland Lee inside.
The Water Curtain dived into the seawater and swam rapidly underwater.
At the east side of the Suman Archipelago, a remote and uninhabited corner finally welcomed its deserved silence.
…
…
Inside Selena’s study in the core of the Suman Archipelago.
This study with a hemispherical dome occupied a vast area.
A few meters above the floor, several spherical miniature oceans floated.
“Splish~”
A lot of waves appeared on a miniature ocean near the desk.
Amidst the churning water, a Water Curtain emerged from the miniature ocean and landed on the soft carpet.
The Water Curtain retreated back to the miniature ocean, leaving no trace of water on the ground.
Two figures appeared in the study, Noland Lee and Selena returning from the east side of the Suman Archipelago.
“Selena, give me a moment.” Noland Lee patted the cloth bag containing the metal box:
“I want to settle this poor Resurrection Witch first. Do you mind if I summon Denise Green?”
While Selena controlled [Mage’s Hand] to prepare tea and desserts, she shook her head slightly and said:
“Do as you please, Jarvis.”
With Selena’s permission, Noland Lee activated his ‘Soul Perception’ with Denise Green in his heart.
He first reassured the cute little witch, then recounted the fate of Plin’s Companion Witch to her.
After hearing Noland’s account, Denise Green was immediately teleported over amidst flickering flames.
After briefly greeting Selena, Denise Green took the metal box from Noland’s hands with trembling hands, her eyes filled with sorrow and tears:
“It’s Latifa… It’s definitely Latifa… That damned Plin turned her into a monster…”
“You know her?”
Noland Lee faced Denise Green with reddened eyes, feeling a hint of regret in his heart.
Perhaps he shouldn’t have told her about Plin’s actions…
Noland Lee embraced Denise Green’s shoulders and comforted her with gentle words.
Denise Green leaned against his shoulder like an injured kitten, wetting Noland’s neck, and collar with her tears, sobbing incessantly.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Selena stood by with a concerned expression.
After several minutes of consolation, Denise Green’s emotions stabilized and she recounted her acquaintance with Latifa, the Resurrection Witch.
When Denise Green was brought into the Ulnas Circle by the ‘Lantern of Reborn’ and became a Wizard Apprentice, her senior, Latifa, was already a First-Level Resurrection Witch.
The number of Resurrection Witch students was relatively small, generally no more than 10.
They addressed each other as sisters, living carefree lives under the protection of the ‘Lantern’.
It was during that time that Denise Green formed deep friendships with other Wizard Students.
After Latifa became a Three-circled Resurrection Witch, she began traveling the world to find her Contractor, as required by the ‘Lantern’.
Denise Green often met with Latifa in the Sub-Dimensional Plane of the ‘Lantern’ until the latter signed a contract with Plin.
The last time Denise Green saw Latifa was on the day before Latifa signed a contract with Plin.
Latifa said she had found a reliable Contractor who promised to show her the view of outer space after she slept for a short while. By then, Plin would have become a Star Witch.
Denise Green sincerely wished her well.
Since then, Latifa had disappeared without a trace.
Denise Green inquired about Latifa’s whereabouts from the ‘Lantern’.
The ‘Lantern’ always replied with only four words: “She is still alive.”
Now, Denise Green saw Latifa again, only to find her former senior had become a monster in a metal box. This immense psychological gap felt like a heavy blow to Denise Green’s heart.
However, crying wouldn’t solve the problem.
What they needed to consider now was how to settle Latifa inside the box.
After Denise Green had barely composed herself, Noland Lee asked this question:
Should they let Latifa go free with her mind sealed off, or use a Rebirth technique to revive her?
Denise Green brought this question to her Professor.
The Professor advised her to decide for herself.
Faced with this reply, Denise Green found herself in a dilemma.
Latifa, in a state of Mental Seal, had entered Slumber State, losing all ability to perceive the outside world or think.
As Plin promised her, if all went well, she would have the chance to see outer space when she woke up. By then, Plin would be a Star Witch.
But now, Plin was dead, and Latifa was still in Slumber State.
Reviving Latifa, awakening her mind and telling her what had happened to her, might be a cruel thing to do.
