The warden who guards the witches

Late that night.

At the edge of the Sabbat Forest in the autonomous prefecture, Aiden and Deborah stood in the diffuse mist with lanterns, waiting.

In front of them, the doppelganger murderer was being tightly restrained by the shackles turned into an amalgam golem. The "Wordless Code" ensured that she could not resist or escape using divine words.

"I always feel it's a bit spooky." Deborah whispered.

"The Sabbat Forest is filled with mist that can disorient people, and there are also magical beasts raised by witches. There are no villages nearby, and no hunters are willing to approach, and even wanted fugitives will not come here." Aiden explained, " This is not only the residence of the apex witch Abigail, but also the venue for the witch gathering.”

"I know this, but..." Deborah hesitated for a while, and finally asked the question that was lingering in her heart, "What is the relationship between Mr. Aiden and the Witches' Coven? Why would you want to find someone from the Witches' Coven?" Someone help?”

"They and I have a cooperative relationship," Aiden replied calmly.

"Most of the Witches' gathering are wanted criminals, they..." Deborah said cautiously.

"They are not good people, I know." Aiden continued, "But the power of evil people can also be used. Just like prisoners serving time in prison, they can also participate in work, and their abilities can also be used for the right path. You can also You know what happened when I snatched the "Wordless Codex" from the Red Shark Pirates, in fact, I also used their power at that time."

"My abilities can also be used by you, dear warden." The doppelganger killer tried to turn his head, "As long as you let me go."

"Shut up," Aiden said coldly.

"In other words, the Apex Witch Abigail can make us..." Deborah asked.

"No, what we are looking for is not Abigail, but the great witch Lamia." Aiden replied, he kept staring into the depths of the forest.

About a quarter of an hour later, a weird "hissing" sound came from the forest. Deborah didn't pay much attention to it at first, but as the sound got closer and closer, it was also accompanied by a completely unhuman breathing. Deborah felt the hairs on her body suddenly stand up.

Two amber lights suddenly appeared in the forest.

"Mr. Aiden, please be careful, there are monsters!" Deborah shouted immediately.

"Don't be nervous, the person we are waiting for is here." Aiden looked unusually calm.

Deborah squinted her eyes to observe carefully, and then she was horrified to see a huge, half-human, half-snake monster heading here through the fog, approaching with a snake's tail.

"Good evening, Warden." The monster greeted this side, "Have you found a new partner again?"

"Good evening, Lamia." Aiden nodded, "I said, can't you really wear some clothes and come out?"

"Haha, S-class wanted criminal, Queen of Potions Lamia! She's a monster I admire. Warden, your connections are beyond imagination." The doppelganger killer suddenly whistled.

Deborah looked at Lamia warily. Although Lamia was not an enemy from the conversational attitude, just looking at Lamia made her subconsciously tense up. This is an instinctive biological response to Lamia. Predator fear.

"Warden, I remember that the favor I owed you must have been paid off. You said you asked me for help, so you should be paid, right?" Lamia looked treacherous, "I heard Abigail After receiving your contact, I rushed over from my base.”

Lamia did not live in the Sabbat Forest, but just borrowed the shortcut from the Sabbat Forest, passed through his stronghold and rushed to meet Aiden in the autonomous prefecture.

Just yesterday, Aiden contacted Lamia through Abigail, saying that he wanted to ask her for something and to discuss the details.

"Last time, you and Chichimora divided the spoils, ate the meat, and didn't even leave me the soup. I didn't care about it. Now I want to borrow your divine words, and you have to discuss the reward. It's a bit It’s too much.”

"But your goal has been achieved. Now it would be too much to use this excuse to make me work in vain..." Lamia shook her head.

"You witches are really like businessmen sometimes. Shouldn't you pursue knowledge as your lifelong pursuit?" Aiden said and suddenly thought of the right words. "I said, aren't you interested in experimenting with the divine words you got?" ?”

"Of course I've been doing experiments," Lamia said. "I've tried living things and dead things."

"But I guess you have never tried to experiment with the creation of the ruler of 'existence' authority." Aiden's voice deepened.

"The ruler's creation?" Lamia frowned slightly.

"Abigail told me that when you witches gathered to discuss assassinating the hound Dubman, a mysterious man came forward to stop you." Aiden said.

"That's what happened. He made copies of several members." Lamia understood what Aiden meant as he spoke. "You said those are the creations of the ruler of 'existence'?"

"Yes, what is in front of you now is one of the creations of the ruler of existence." Aiden said.

"That's right." Lamia corrected, and she noticed that the two people looked exactly the same.

"No, they are the same existence. The ruler of 'existence' created a fictional character, then differentiated the two extremes of this character's personality, and created two different bodies for them, but they are always of the same birth. The same existence that died." Aiden briefly explained.

"That sounds interesting." Lamia seemed to be a little interested. She came over, leaned over, stuck out her tongue and sniffed the bound double killer, then approached Deborah. Deborah was so scared that she hid behind Aiden, holding Aiden's shoulders and dared not move.

"This face really looks like an artificial creation." Lamia nodded with satisfaction, "Interesting, it's really interesting. I wonder what the creation of God tastes like!"

Deborah and the double killer shuddered at the same time.

"Don't eat it." Aiden emphasized.

"So, what do you want me to do?" Lamia asked.

Aiden turned his head to look at Deborah, and asked for Deborah's opinion for the last time with his eyes.

With a determined look, Deborah nodded.

Aiden looked at Lamia again and said seriously: "I want you to use the power of 'fusion' to merge them into one!"

"Is it that simple?" Lamia raised her eyebrows, "I have to remind you that the power of 'chaos' is full of randomness. Even I dare not assert what the result will be after 'fusion'. It can be seen that your attitude towards the two of them...is different."

"So I also need you to use the power of 'balance' to make the result of the fusion as much as possible with her as the main body." Aiden pointed at Deborah.
