Chapter 828: The Half-Witch and the Eighteen Secret Arts
Chapter 828: The Half-Witch and the Eighteen Secret Arts
"Ziiii..."
Just as the leader of the Shaman Society was rushing back in a panic, having his dark past exposed, the Malevolent Prince, located three streets away from the High Witch Court, heard a familiar, grating noise once again.
【Through fair gambling and forceful persuasion, you have successfully conquered nine major societies within the Sorceress Kingdom. You now rule over half of Ranran's bloodline, the last Witch King, and have activated the Silver Hidden Badge, "Half-Witch Blood."】
【Half-Witch Blood: As the last Witch King, Ranran, revered by the Ten Clans, struggled to give birth to her own bloodline. Thus, she divided her heritage and bloodline, entrusting them within eighteen Great Courtyard Secret Arts.
When a human with a portion of the Ten Clans' bloodline cultivates any secret art to a certain extent, they will automatically inherit Witch King Ranran's bloodline. Upon mastering nine or more secret arts, they become direct descendants of Witch King Ranran, awakening the Half-Witch Blood.】
【Effect when equipped: Obtain half of the last Witch King Ranran's talents, and compatibility with time abilities will significantly increase.】
【Upgrade Path: Upon cultivating all eighteen Great Courtyard Secret Arts to the "Great Witch" level, or completely conquering all of Ranran's bloodline, this badge will automatically advance to the Hidden Golden Badge, "King Blood Great Witch."】
【Hidden Trait (No need to equip): Influenced by the lingering obsession of Witch King Ranran, the probability of giving birth to offspring after corresponding activities with your spouse will greatly increase.】
Damn... The Shaman Society actually has a hidden badge? Also, besides the Great Witch King's lineage, there are a total of seventeen major societies in the Sorceress Kingdom, not just these eighteen Great Courtyard Secret Arts, right?
After glancing at the flashing silver light of the 【Half-Witch Blood】 on the panel, Lyon, deep in thought, was about to study the effect of this thing when someone suddenly patted his arm.
"Lyon."
After calling out to the Malevolent Prince, the Cat Witch, who had been working closely with Lyon these past few days, spoke with concern:
"The leader of the Shaman Society is very powerful. Can the two Shamans you sent take him down?"
"No need, sending two people is enough."
The Malevolent Prince smiled and explained:
"Although the leader of the Shaman Society is stronger than many first-level Purification Bureau members, he doesn't have any specialized protective anomalies, so dealing with him won't be too difficult.
I've already made arrangements. When he arrives at the door and starts arguing with his relatives, the two Shamans will strike from behind, and one hit from each will be enough to take him down."
That's true...
The Cat Witch nodded, reluctantly agreeing with Lyon's assessment. But after walking around the room for a while, she couldn't help but suggest again:
"Lyon, the Shaman Society is ranked first among the seventeen major societies, and they control many key departments. If he escapes, it will be troublesome. I think it's safer if I go there myself."
"Rest assured, I've made all the arrangements."
After glancing at the Cat Witch, whose face had turned slightly pale, with damp strands of hair sticking to her forehead, Lyon directly shook his head, refusing her request.
"You haven't yet broken free from the suppression of the 【Bedtime Story】, and your physical strength isn't much stronger than an ordinary person. You were dancing with the Dance Nuo Society members from late last night until the sun rose this morning. It's better to rest now!"
"But what if..."
"There won't be any 'what ifs.' But if you really feel insecure, I can make a trip there.
"No, it's fine. You've already helped me a lot these past few days."
As she looked at the composed Lyon in front of her, the Cat Witch realized she had been overly anxious and felt a bit embarrassed. "Sorry, now that things have improved, I'm suddenly feeling a bit impatient."
"It's okay, it's only natural."
Lyon nodded in understanding, then glanced at the Cat Witch, whose black cloak was drenched in sweat, and whose calf muscles were slightly trembling. He gestured towards the sofa across from him.
"Princess Kateline, would you mind sitting down and chatting for a bit?"
"Ah, of course!"
Although she still felt a bit anxious, hoping to quickly resolve the issue with the Shaman Society, the Cat Witch sat down across from Lyon and looked up at him.
"Princess Kateline."
Lyon looked at the panel displaying 'Half-Witch Blood' and asked curiously, "Do you know about Ranran?"
"Huh?"
Hearing Lyon's question, Princess Catherine was slightly taken aback and asked in surprise, "Yes, she's my ancestor, the last Witch King of the Great Court... Why did you suddenly ask about her?"
"It's not a big deal. After interacting with the Earth Clan in the Northern Kingdom, I wanted to learn more about the past."
Lyon gave a half-hearted reason and sincerely asked for guidance. "Princess Kateline, I've only recently become a director of the Purification Bureau, so I'm not very familiar with the past. Could you please tell me more?"
"Sure."
The Cat Witch nodded in agreement and promised, "I'll tell you everything I know."
"Then thank you."
Lyon smiled at her words and continued, "During the time of Witch King Ranran, the Great Court had a total of eighteen secret techniques. I want to know if the seventeen secret techniques passed down by the seventeen major societies in the Sorceress Kingdom are the same as those seventeen out of the eighteen?"
You even know about this?
After hearing Lyon's question, the Cat Witch was surprised and nodded slightly, then explained, "Yes, that's correct... The seventeen major societies in the Sorceress Kingdom originated from the secret techniques of the Great Court. My mother's Witch Lineage inherited the eighteenth and final secret technique."
Indeed, the situation was as she had guessed.
Lyon nodded in understanding, wanting to learn more about the background, hoping to unlock a good badge. He continued, "Princess Kateline, what are these eighteen secret techniques? Have you practiced them all?"
"I've studied most of them, but I'm not proficient in many. I'm only skilled in the secret techniques of the Four Societies of Destiny and the Seven Societies of Arrival. As for the specific effects..."
She paused to organize her thoughts before trying to explain, "The core secret techniques of the major societies are actually the same as their society names. For example, the Astrology Guild, the Numerology Guild, and the Dance Nuo Society master Astrology, Numerology, and Dance Nuo secret techniques respectively. The Totem Guild, the Priest Guild, and the Shaman Society focus on Totem Cultivation, Ritual Ceremony, and Communing with Nature. The Silver Sage Guild and the Rationalism Guild are special. One accelerates the speed of thought with Mind Technique, and the other uses Revelation Technique to gain World Insight. Although they are not difficult to learn, very few people have truly mastered them."
