Otaku Witch

Chapter 409 - 367. Eager to try



At the entrance of the God King Cathedral’s main hall.

Dorothy forcefully pushed open the two massive wooden doors that had been closed, revealing the interior of the cathedral’s hall before her eyes.

At first glance, it appeared to be an ordinary cathedral, even somewhat simple, nowhere near as luxurious as she had imagined.

But after the homebody witch examined it more closely, she couldn’t help but cover her eyes.

Goodness, it was all top-quality building materials.

As an Ashen Witch whose side job was a judge but mainly dealt with civil engineering, although everything in the cathedral was handled perfectly, she, a professional, wasn’t fooled.

The heritage transmitted from a once prosperous top-tier family was indeed terrifying. Previously, she had worried whether the Angel Witches had the financial resources to redeploy the God King’s Protection Curse, but now it seemed that just selling a few items from this hall would probably suffice.

Although, given the Angel Witches’ character, they would rather starve themselves than touch anything in this cathedral.

Of course, Dorothy hadn’t come here to check on the Angel Witches’ family resources. She lifted her head and looked straight to the very back of the cathedral, where, instead of a divine statue, there was nothing but emptiness.

It wasn’t that the Angel Witches didn’t want to place one there, but that they couldn’t, because there stood a wooden cross, tall and long, its base planted on a platform that resembled an altar with a complicated Magic Array carved into it.

At the top of the cross, numerous chains of Magic Power extended, binding a person. Explore stories on NovelBin.Côm

More precisely, they were binding an angel, a King of Angels with twelve pure white wings.

This was the sealing ground of the Lord of Glory.

Although there was a so-called Lord of Glory’s sealing ground sightseeing spot around the outskirts of Witch Academy that was open to anyone, it was actually just a projection; the real sealing ground had always been inside this God King Cathedral, strictly guarded by the Angel Witches.

The Lord of Glory on the cross hung her head as if she were dead, but she was actually just sealed from contacting the outside world, hence unable to move; she could only be considered as asleep.

Dorothy looked up carefully at the King of Angels, whom she had briefly met not too long ago, then lowered her head to look at a sword planted in front of the altar.

The sword was very ornate, with a silver-white blade that, despite having withstood hundreds of thousands of years of the ravages of time, was still bright and sharp. The sword’s guard was a statue in the form of an angel, and the angel’s beautifully crafted twelve wings served as a natural handguard.

"Is this the Holy Sword that chooses the God King’s Holy Child?"

Dorothy looked curiously at the sword, which was the opportunity her roommate had long yearned for but never had the chance to try, to change her fate.

All of Sophia’s efforts were just to get a chance to come here and try.

Unfortunately, her identity meant she could never enter this cathedral, let alone touch the sword.

However, having said that, at this moment Dorothy herself felt somewhat eager to try; she felt her hands itch, but sadly, there was a much stronger Barrier near the sword and the altar.

"Seriously, a Twelve-Ring Forbidden Curse—Avalon all by itself? Sheesh, is that necessary?"

After inspecting the barrier briefly, the homebody witch felt a bit of regret.

This was far more formidable than the God King’s Protection Curse outside, especially showing the Angel Witches’ importance towards this altar and Holy Sword; they valued them even above their own lives.

She was able to ignore the God King’s Protection Curse outside because of the privileges of the Judgment Court. In a legal investigative action with a Search Warrant, the Judges symbolized the will of The Third King, and naturally, the will of The Third King was unimpeded throughout the Witch World, no obstacle could stop the Judges.

This was a very powerful privilege indeed, but unfortunately, it was also very demanding as it could only take effect within the bounds of the Search Warrant.

This time she was targeting the Angel Witch, and since there were no Angel Witches hiding inside this altar, the effect of the Search Warrant could not be activated, leaving her truly helpless against the barrier of Avalon.

This was an authentic Twelve-Ring Forbidden Spells, and moreover, it was an absolute defense that created its own world. The sword and the altar seemed to be right in front of her, but in reality, they were in a distant world named Avalon. Unless Dorothy had the capability to precisely locate Avalon across countless worlds and had the means to attack across worlds, the strength of that means would still need to be enough to break a World Barrier of a great world, otherwise, she might as well go to sleep.

This was truly a problem that would even make a Sage go bald, for the most difficult thing about this defensive Forbidden Curse wasn’t the defense itself, but finding the location.

Sages were nearly Omniscient, not truly Omniscient. For them to find Avalon among the endless vastness of the small and large worlds of the Western Universe was like finding a needle in a haystack. They would have to take their time, at best they could search slightly faster than ordinary people, but in the vast and boundless universe, this slight increase in efficiency was essentially meaningless, not better than waiting for a miracle to happen.

As long as one wasn’t Omniscient and Omnipotent, their power was ultimately insignificant in the face of the entire universe.

In the Eastern Universe, there’s a saying that goes, "Beneath the Saints, all are mere ants."

Even powerful as the Sages, they are but slightly stronger ants in the grand scheme of the universe.

Dorothy shook her head, deciding not to think about these irrelevant matters anymore. She directly pulled out a mirror from within her robes, then placed it on the ground beside her.

This mirror was clearly distinguished by an Angel on the left, a Demon on the right, and a Great Dragon embossed at the top center. It was indeed the Divine Artifact of the Judgment Court used for testing loyalty, the Conscience Devil’s Mirror.

After all, with so many people from the Saint Heir Sect, it was impossible for Dorothy to screen each one in the Faith Space like last time with the Vice-President, especially after she had encountered the Lord of Glory last time and nearly got into trouble. Naturally, Dorothy wouldn’t walk into the same trap this time.

So, she directly borrowed this Divine Artifact, the Magic Mirror, from the Judgment Court. Later, by simply letting all the Angel Witches look into the mirror, it would become crystal clear who had issues and who was innocent.

"You, come here, look into the mirror first."

After setting up the Conscience Devil’s Mirror, Dorothy glanced at the Phoenix next to her who seemed utterly defeated, and spoke to her.

Although she felt this little Angel was probably not tainted by the Lord of Glory, to be safe, it was best to check first.

At this moment, Phoenix’s eyes lacked any sparkle, she had completely given up resisting. Whatever Dorothy asked her to do, she would do; now, she willingly approached the Conscience Devil’s Mirror.

Quickly, the mirror reflected the fixation of this little Angel.

However, as Dorothy looked from the side, she suddenly felt speechless.

"Wow, is that all the courage you have?"

Looking at the mirror where Sophia held up a sign that read "I lost, Phoenix is truly the mightiest" and ran crying, while the little Angel stood triumphantly accepting the worship of other Angel Witches and Witches in a comical scene, the homebody witch couldn’t help but feel speechless.

Well, should she say this kid was indeed a good child with a slightly twisted personality? Even in her dreams, she didn’t dare to go a bit further.

But then again, I haven’t looked in this mirror myself, have I? Should I try it now while no one else has returned?

...Dorothy is eager to try...
