I Woke Up In A Completely Different World! 66 To Make A Witch, Part III

Madelyn: "Hello?"

I couldn't just walk away…

Something drew me in and I realized on the porch of the house that I might've just fucked myself. The door to the homestead slowly opened up, baiting me to come inside. It took a great deal of self-control to get away from the porch.

Madelyn: "Uh-oh."

This thing, whatever it was, is nothing like I've dealt with before. What if it used magic to bait me in? I ran back to where my friends should be and couldn't find them.

Madelyn: "Young Mi? Lilith!?"

I looked back to the porch and see them both go inside the homestead.

Yeah…

That's definitely not them and there's nothing good that would come from this! I was beginning to get scared to the point where I almost cried!

Running was the best answer but I couldn't just abandon my friends. I paced around the homestead trying to find a way to sneak in. The windows were boarded up and doors were blocked by random junk.

I find a well behind the house and proceed to check for anything useful. If there was a bucket, I could throw it onto the porch and see if anyone would come out.

Unfortunately, there was nothing but a lot of rope. I sulked and went back into the trees.

I really did fuck up…

I hid myself inside a bush and waited for someone or something to happen. A good 10 minutes pass by when I spot a figure slowly creep up to me. My heart begins to race and I stay well hidden.

However, the figure got closer and I see that it wasn't just anyone. This person was transparent and monochromatic. I stared at this indistinguishable thing for a while before it started to talk.

Spirit: "You can see me?"

Can it see me?!

What do I do!?

The figure was only a few inches away now. It terrified me so much that crying and beginning for mercy was the only thing I could think of.

Madelyn: "Please—don't hurt me…"

Spirit: "I won't hurt you…"

It squatted down and tried consoling me. Maybe it isn't so bad? I wiped away my tears and look up to it.

Spirit: "I'm trying to find something. Can you help me?"

Madelyn: "…yes…"

I was led back to the well and the spirit points directly into it. Did it fall down and die at the bottom? He must've drowned!

Madelyn: "You fell down a well?"

Spirit: "No, my body's down there though."

It's down there, but how do I retrieve it? With the large amount of rope, the idea to rappel down there came. It's already a very stupid idea but with no better options I'm going to be stuck here forever while Young Mi and Lilith are inside!

Spirit: "What are you making?"

Madelyn: "Something that can rappel me down."

Spirit: "Down..? You'll end up like me…"

I have a feeling I won't…

Trusting my gut already put me in this situation but it's also the only thing that can pull me out.

Madelyn: "I have my reasons…"

After I made sure the rope was as secure as possible, I threw it down the well and made my way down. It was dark and deep, and eventually find a cave filled with water. I lowered myself further when I felt the rope snap.

Madelyn: "Kya~!"

I fell into the water and when I swam back up, the rest of the rope fell on top of my head. I pulled myself into the water and cast Candlelight to better see my surroundings. I find a body right next to me and I panic before I remember that it could be the spirits.

Madelyn: "Fuck…"

Spirit: "Ohh~ there's lots and lots of water down here!"

Madelyn: "A body… is it yours?"

Spirit: "I… don't remember."

How can someone forget what they look like? It's not like the body was decomposing, it looks fresh! The spirit touched the body and froze in place. It backed up a little and finally sat on his knees.

Spirit: "It's mine."

It sounded happy.

Hopefully after all this trouble, it can help me in return. There might be some kind of secret entrance to the house that allows me to sneak in.

Spirit: "Thank you… it isn't much but I feel like I can rest now that I know where my body is."

Madelyn: "Can you help me find my friends? I lost them inside that homestead."

Spirit: "Yes, it's the least I could do."

The spirit grabs my hand and levitates me. It guided me back up the well and lands back outside. I was too stunned to say anything. I didn't believe I'd make it up that well!

The spirit continued to help by clearing the debris blocking the back door. The objects levitated out of the way and put to the side without making a sound!

Spirit: "I have your back."

I slowly crept inside the home. The door led me inside the kitchen, which is good. A kitchen usually means that I can find a knife to protect myself. There was a big butcher knife laying on the counter and I quickly armed myself with it.

The spirit was behind me, pointing towards another door that lead to the living area. Through it, I find another person in here and hide behind a ruined table. I peeked over and see more than I could imagine. There was a robed lady standing over the tied up bodies of Young Mi and Lilith!

They looked like they were in serious trouble. I haven't been spotted yet and the lady had her back turned to me. She was too occupied with them and I used the opportunity to attack.

I hesitated but once I stood up, there was no turning back. I ran full speed towards the lady and stabbed her in the back. Her reaction was immediate, ignored the pain and punched me with enough force to send me into a wall.

Witch: "Kaki skyla, eisai nekros!"

(Stupid bitch, you are dead!)

Madelyn: "Fuck you!"

When it comes to hand-to-hand, I will excel!

I quickly got back onto my feet and began trading blows. We were both all over the place and the furniture was tossed around even more.

Witch: "I lost to—bitch!"

Madelyn: "English not your native language? I might not have a belt but I can still kick your ass!"

She rushed me a final time before I returned the favor and kicked her into the wall. The knife that was still stuck to her back went all the way through and came out the front. She screamed in agony and slowly reduced herself to sniffling cries before a cold silence fills the homestead.

I went to check on my friends when I realized they had disappeared.

Madelyn: "Young Mi?! Lilith!? Where did you go?!"

They must've ran out when I was in the fight.

I ran outside and desperately looked around until I finally see them hiding behind the trees where we came from. Lilith comes running out with Young Mi directly behind her.

Lilith: "Madelyn! Madelyn!"

I laughed and yelled back.

Madelyn: "Guys!"

Before the part where we hug it out and continue with our lives, Young Mi grabs Lilith by the collar and starts holding her back. She struggled a bit before giving up and yelling at her.

Lilith: "What are you doing, Young Mi!?"

Young Mi: "That's not Madelyn…"

Madelyn: "Huh?"
