House Witch Chapter 872

“Captain, are you sure we really want to enter this magic house?”

Lucia looked at the main tent in front of her, which occupied the absolute top position in the entire circus, then turned to look at the petite captain next to her who was also sweating, and finally confirmed.

Well, the previous actions in the divination house had made the two of them realize that the clown's recommendation might really be true, so naturally the magic house was the most dangerous area in the entire circus.

Now looking at the absolute position of this magic house tent, there is no doubt about the status of this magic house.

The high energy ahead is definitely a dangerous situation.

Even though the vampire witch's face was as expressionless as usual at this time, she was actually a little panicked, otherwise she wouldn't have had to confirm again and again.

The methods of the fortune teller in the fortune telling room before were already so weird and terrifying that she couldn't understand. Even when she thought about it after leaving now, Lucia couldn't help but get goosebumps. She really couldn't imagine what it was. Such a person can still beat that fortune teller.

"You are talking as if we really have a choice. Even if we don't go in now, we will still have to go in later. It's just a matter of time."

Ifrit also took a few deep breaths and replied.

Lucia was silent, after all, what the captain said was indeed true.

So the two gritted their teeth and opened the tent door in front of them, walked in, and then

Then nothing happened.

There were neither scary dolls nor dangerous traps at the door. What appeared in front of the two people was a large stage, and in front of the stage were rows of neat audience seats.

Well, this is all normal. After all, a normal magic house seems to be like this. But the problem is that such a normal scene suddenly appeared in this abnormal circus. This is really a bit strange. adapt.

“Ah, did today's guests come so early?”

Just when Ifrit and Lucia were stunned, a voice came from behind the stage, and then a head poked out from behind the curtain.

That is the face of a beautiful big sister who looks very kind and approachable.

When the elder sister came out completely, what appeared in front of the two of them was a gentle beauty wearing a black magician's costume, a magician's high hat, and holding a double snake cane in her hand.

"Hello, you two. I am the magician Hermes. I am very happy that you two can come to my magic house. However, the official performance may have to wait a while until other guests arrive."

The magician lady took off her hat very elegantly, stroked her breasts, bent down and saluted the two of them, and then said this.

"it's okay no problem."

Ifrit and Lucia quickly returned the favor, and then they secretly looked at the magician who seemed to be easy to get along with. They couldn't help but once again doubt the authenticity of the clown's words.

This is the scariest magic house in the circus? How is this scary? This magician lady is obviously very easy to get along with.

The two of them looked at the innocent smile on Miss Holmes's face, and their guard lowered a lot.

　　Devils and witches are very sensitive to all kinds of negative emotions and human malice.

Just like the fortune teller in the fortune-telling house just now, the two of them were as black as a human-shaped abyss. Just sensing each other's magic power, the two of them had a terrifying feeling of being entangled by poisonous snakes, and they wanted to stay away immediately.

But this Miss Holmes is the complete opposite. Her smile is gentle and friendly from the heart, just like the sunshine in winter, which is particularly healing and intoxicating.

Just by looking at her smile, Ifrit and Lucia felt that the shock and trauma they had suffered before had been gently healed.

“Hmm, then you just sit down first.”

The magician lady came to the two of them in one step. She reached into the magic hat and took out several handfuls of various snacks and gave them to Ifrit and Lucia. A handful for each person.

“I made these myself, you're welcome, feel free to try them, it will be some time before the show starts?”

Ms. Holmes said enthusiastically.

She herself had no intention of going back to the preparation room behind the stage curtain. Instead, she sat in the auditorium with the two of them. Then she took out a handful of snacks and tasted them happily.

She squinted her eyes in comfort after taking one bite, and the overflowing happiness was visible to the naked eye.

Ifrit and Lucia: "."

The two of them looked at each other, and then looked down at the various drool-worthy snacks stuffed in their hands. Their heads were still buzzing at this time.

where am I? who I am? What do I want to do?

Both of them were mentally prepared to suffer and be tortured, but now that they were being served delicious food and drinks, they were a little overwhelmed.

They wanted to suspect that the magician's friendliness was all disguise, but it was so natural that it didn't look like a show at all.

They didn't dare to act rashly, for fear of accidentally irritating Miss Holmes and causing her to become violent.

In short, walking on thin ice is like walking on thin ice.

After a long time, Ifrit gritted her teeth, then took out a piece from the pile of snacks in her hand and stuffed it into her mouth with the realization that she was ready to die.

Hmm, it seems that the only request the magician lady made to the two of them was this snack. Maybe eating the snack first is the condition for the conversation to continue. There may be something hidden in this snack.

“I'll eat first, don't move.”

While eating, she said this to Lucia beside her.

“Well, captain, be careful.”

The vampire witch also nodded. She had similar thoughts to the captain.

Although this Miss Magician has been very friendly from the beginning, how could the two of them really treat each other as completely harmless? This is the biggest boss in this circus.

No matter how kind-hearted the tiger is, it is still a tiger, right?

At the moment, Lucia was nervously watching her captain's reaction.

The poison resistance of Balrog Witches is still very high. After all, they can switch themselves into Balrog form if they are really poisoned. Most of the poisons will be destroyed in the high temperature of the lava.

However.

The vampire witch soon saw that her captain's petite body began to tremble uncontrollably, and the amplitude became larger and larger. It seemed that she was trying her best to endure it, but she couldn't help it.

Damn it, there is indeed something wrong with this snack. Captain, she seems to be in pain. Is it poisonous that even the body temperature of the Balrog cannot destroy?

Lucia's expression changed. She had already put her hand into her pocket, ready to feed the captain two bottles of the vampire's secret antidote.

but

“Delicious, this is really delicious.”

Ifrit has been trying very hard to suppress it. She doesn't want to show the shameful expression of cheering like a child when seeing delicious food, but the Balrog Witch is probably really not good at enduring it. In the end, I lost to instinct, and then I just said whatever I wanted to say and praised it.

“Miss Holmes, this is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life.”

She praised so sincerely.

Lucia on the side: "."

The vampire witch felt that her worries just now were all in vain.

Captain, can't you be more reliable?

Lucia was a little tired.

However, seeing that the captain who had always been very dignified before actually made frank actions that were consistent with her appearance, the vampire witch was also a little curious about how delicious this snack was. On the contrary, the captain has also verified that it is not poisonous, so let me try it too. This is not for enjoyment, just to find clues.

She convinced herself so, then picked up a piece of candy and put it in her mouth.

Two or three seconds later, the expressionless and cold-faced vampire smiled as brightly as a sunflower, and the happiness from the heart could not be faked.

“Hahaha, as long as you like it.”

Seeing that her skills were recognized, the magician lady was also very happy. She smiled shyly.

“Well, Miss Holmes, can I ask you a few questions?”

Ifrit picked up a piece of small cake and put it into her mouth again, and then asked as if chatting with a friend.

“Well, of course, I will answer whatever I know.”

Miss Magician nodded without caring at all and said this.

“Then can you tell me the purpose of this circus?”

The Balrog Witch still asked while eating, as if it was really a casual question.

Lucia on the side: "???"

The vampire witch, who was originally addicted to the delicious food, was stunned for a moment, and then her heart lifted again.

　　 No, my captain, are you asking too directly? What if you make people anxious, and how can they answer you for this kind of question?

However, what surprised Lucia was that Miss Hermes actually answered.

"Purpose? It's probably to comply with destiny. It's time for the City of Night to change."

Miss Magician stretched out her finger and tapped her chin, seemed to organize her words, and finally answered like this.

She was even afraid that what she said was too simple and that the two of them wouldn't understand, so she explained a few words in particular.

“To put it simply, the good days of the Thirteen Blood Clan are over. It's time for the Demon Witch to overthrow the tyranny of the Blood Clan and become the master of her own country. Therefore, the guests we can invite are all people who are very dissatisfied with the Thirteen Blood Clan.”

Ms. Holmes said this with a calm face. She didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with what she said at all, and she still had that pure smile on her face.

Lucia: “???”

As the only vampire witch present, her position was a bit awkward at this time.

"What nonsense are you talking about? What kind of destiny are you talking about? My blood family."

Out of loyalty to her family and recognition of her identity as a vampire witch, she immediately wanted to stand up and refute what the magician said.

After all, their vampire witches are one of the oldest groups of witches. They followed the God King to heaven, built the underworld for the witch world, and actively participated in the Dragon King's great expedition.

But before she could say anything, Miss Holmes had already glanced at her lightly, and then asked a question casually.

“Then, have the thirteen clans of the Blood Clan made any worthy contributions to the demons and witches over the years?”

It was just a question, and Lucia was speechless.

Because she thought about it carefully, it seemed that she really didn't think of anything worth saying. As for other demons and witches, the Thirteenth Clan of the Vampire Clan had never thought highly of them.

After all, Night City is the territory of vampire witches. To them, this group of demon witches are just a bunch of beggars who can't live in other places and come here to make a living.

The vampire witches did not directly drive out this group of dangerous people who were marginalized by other witches. Instead, they gave them a place to stay. This is already a great deal of face.

As for the thirteen clans of the vampire clan, they have always been the kings of demons and witches. This has been the case since ancient times.

Long before witches were born and the Night City was still a city of sin, their vampires were already the nobles of the night and the kings of demons. This was the authority given to them by the great demon Lord Satan.

Well, for a long time, vampire witches have been accustomed to treating other demon witches as servants who can come and go at a moment's notice. Other demon witches should serve them.

As for what they did for the demon witches?

Does this need to be done? Isn't it enough to take them in and give them a place to stay?

emmm Is this really enough?

Lucia began to struggle to ask herself questions.

She is still very young, and her thinking is far less solidified by time than other compatriots, so she clearly knows that there must be a problem.

After all, everyone is equal among witches.

This sentence was just a slogan in the previous era of the God King, but in the era of the Dragon King of the Crazy Great Expedition, it has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. After all, countless witches have completed counterattacks on the battlefield over the years.

In the Age of the Dragon King, as long as you dare to venture and fight, and add a little bit of luck, you can really achieve something.

It seems that the good days of the vampire witch calling herself the king of demon witches, and then shouting at other demon witches at will are really coming to an end.

It's just that there's no reason why the family doesn't know about this kind of thing, why do they.

Lucia just thought this in her heart, and then she suddenly looked at the Balrog Captain next to her, and fell silent again.

Is the family really unaware of this?

Probably not, otherwise, why would they suppress other demons and witches in various ways?

A king who is enterprising promises a future to her subjects, asking everyone to follow her.

The old and decayed king suppressed talented ministers to demonstrate her declining authority.

It seems that destiny has really been reversed.

“So Miss Hermes, I would also like to ask, is the fortune telling by the fortune teller in your fortune-telling house accurate?”

Seeing Lucia bowing her head and shutting herself up, the Balrog Witch continued to ask.

"Of course it's accurate. There are probably few fortune tellers in the world who are better than her. To a certain extent, you can regard her words as destiny."

Ms. Holmes still answered patiently.

"so smart?"

“Well, that's how awesome it is.”

“Then the last question, can we leave with the memory intact?”

Ifrit finally finished the last bite of snacks. She raised her head and looked directly at the magician in front of her with burning eyes.

She now understood why this affable magician was the most dangerous person in the circus.

This guy really didn't regard them as a threat from the beginning.

“Of course, as long as you have the ability to maintain yourselves in my magic.”

Miss Magician's smile was as kind and confident as ever.

Hermes is smiling.
