Half a year later.
In a shrine in the depths of a forest in midsummer, a young girl was quietly kneeling in the center of the shrine. She was wearing a dark blue sailor suit and had a slender figure. Her delicate face was solemn and solemn, but her eyes revealed a sharp radiance.
At this moment, the young girl revealed a hint of doubt.
"Flux God Island?"
"That's right, Yuki Zhuo."
A calm and steady voice came from the other side of the curtain, causing the young girl to instinctively tense up.
"According to the original plan, you still need to train for four more months to obtain the qualifications to become a sword sorcerer. But now, the situation has changed. Anyway, take a look at this first. "
As he spoke, a paper butterfly flew out from the gap of the curtain and landed on Yuki Zhuo's hand, turning into a photo.
The young girl took the photo and carefully looked at it. In the photo was a young girl with long white hair. She seemed to be about the same age as herself, wearing a black robe and a triangular hat similar to a witch's. She had a calm and gentle smile on her face.
"This photo is.....?"
"Her name is Xiao Aili. Have you heard of her?"
"No."
Yuki Zhuo shook her head. She was sure she had never heard of this name, but the person in the photo was somewhat familiar.
"What about the Silver Witch?"
"Ah....."
Hearing this title, Ji Zhuo Xuecai was suddenly enlightened. Although she was still a trainee, she knew a thing or two about the famous Attack Masters in Japan, especially the "Silver Witch". It was rumored that she became an Attack Master at an unimaginable speed at the age of 12, and after that, she became quite active. For those who wanted to become an Attack Master, this was a piece of information that couldn't be ignored.
"Yuki Zhuo, your mission is to go to Flux God Island as a trainee wizard and partner up with the Silver Witch.... Of course, this is only on the surface. In fact, you only have one mission — to monitor the Fourth True Ancestor, Xiao Aili. If you determine that she is a dangerous existence, please use all your strength to eliminate her."
"Huh?"
Yuki Zhuo was stunned for a moment, then she jumped up.
"Wait, wait a minute.... The Fourth True Ancestor? Isn't that just a legend? And the Silver Witch is a wizard, how could she be the Fourth True Ancestor? No, no, no, if she's the True Ancestor, why did she become a Wizard?! "
Due to her astonishment, Xue Cai's words were a little incoherent, but that was normal. After all, even if it was just a rumor, she had heard about the fourth true ancestor.
Nightcount Yinbo was the fourth True Ancestor who led the twelve beasts. He didn't have any vampire brethren, and he was the only and most powerful vampire. However, there was no evidence to prove the existence of the Fourth True Ancestor, so basically everyone thought that it was just a rumor.
"It's true that there are only three acknowledged True Ancestors, namely the Forgotten Warlord who dominates Europe, the Eye of Extinction who leads the alliance in West Asia, and the Queen of Chaos who rules the Americas. Compared to them, the Fourth True Ancestor doesn't have his own vampires or territory. But even so, it doesn't prove that the Fourth True Ancestor doesn't exist … In fact, it took us a lot of effort to confirm this unbelievable fact. "
At this point, the voice on the other side of the curtain sounded incredulous.
"As for your other questions, I can answer them. The reason why the Silver Witch became a Mage Attacker was because she was once a human — and not long ago."
"Huh?"
"According to the report, two years ago, she was just a girl with the talent of a witch, but in one incident, she fought against the Fourth True Ancestor who had just awakened and devoured him. It was then that we learned that the child seemed to have part vampire blood. "
"…"
Xue Cai looked at the photo in surprise. Judging from the photo, the girl in front of her was only about fourteen or fifteen years old. Two years ago, she would have been twelve or thirteen … But at that time, she dared to fight against the Fourth True Ancestor alone? Although the Fourth True Ancestor had just awakened, she was still a True Ancestor!
"That's not all."
Just as Xue Cai was feeling bewildered, another voice from behind the imperial curtain continued.
"At that time, we all thought that the girl was just lucky enough to defeat the Fourth True Ancestor. In fact, the Fourth True Ancestor didn't really die, but was sleeping in her body."
That made sense.
Hearing this, Xue Cai nodded silently in her heart. If it were her, she would probably think that this explanation was more reasonable.
"However, half a year ago, Zaharias, the Lord of the Nelepsy Autonomous Region, held a 'Feast of Flame' in an attempt to awaken the Fourth True Ancestor. In the end, the power of the Fourth True Ancestor sleeping in the Silver Witch's body was awakened. It was only then that we finally confirmed that the Fourth True Ancestor wasn't defeated by the Silver Witch, but completely devoured and killed by her. Therefore, the current Fourth True Ancestor is the Silver Witch."
"…"
Xue Cai's mouth was still wide open, unable to say a word. The process was so dramatic that she didn't know what to say. But soon, she shivered and came back to her senses.
"Please, please wait a moment. Isn't this mission too heavy for me? I'm still a trainee … "
It was no wonder that Xue Cai was so worried. After all, she was just a trainee witch, but the other party was an upright Mage Attacker. Although she hadn't had any contact with the Silver Witch before, Xue Cai had heard about her. Such a powerful Mage Attacker was also the Fourth True Ancestor … This was much more difficult to deal with than simple demons and monsters.
"You don't have to worry about that."
In response to Xue Cai's words, the woman behind Yu Lian replied.
"According to the results of our investigation, the Fourth True Ancestor is very friendly to girls. As long as you go there as a partner, she should take good care of you. Ji Zhuo Xue Cai, from now on, you are to 'approach her with all your might and monitor her movements'. The procedures for you to transfer to the Rainbow Sea Bloodpool where she's from have already been completed. That's all I have to say. I wish you success. "
Ji Zhuo Xue Cai didn't know if it was just her imagination, but she felt that when the woman on the other side of Yu Lian said the last sentence, there was a hint of … slyness?
For Aili, becoming the Fourth True Ancestor did not bring her many benefits. In fact … it was the opposite.
Aili's physical condition worsened.
Originally, the ratio of vampires, werewolves, and humans in her body was 1: 1: 1. But now, because of the resurrection of the Fourth True Ancestor, the ratio of vampires had become 2: 1: 1. This directly reduced Aili's resistance to sunlight. Although it wasn't to the extent that Sophie had to write a will when she went to a comic convention, it wasn't much better.
Not only that, she also had another problem to solve.
That was her familiars.
It took a lot of magic power to summon familiars, which was why only vampires would choose to raise familiars in their own bodies. Because vampires were immortal, they had enough life force to squander, while other species did not have this advantage. In other words, although humans could also summon familiars, if they used them for a long time, they would die due to the exhaustion of their life force.
This was why only vampires would raise familiars as their main form of combat.
After all, they wouldn't die.
If life was compared to money, then the summoning of familiars of other species was like borrowing money from the bank in advance. If they couldn't pay back the loan, they would be finished. Vampires, on the other hand, had unlimited money. They could use their familiars however they wanted and as many times as they wanted.
But Aili couldn't use these familiars.
She could feel these familiars in her body, but she couldn't summon them as she pleased. After all, she was the new Fourth True Ancestor, and the familiars in front of her were all followers of the former Fourth True Ancestor. Although the familiars obeyed the Fourth True Ancestor, they also had their own consciousness. Right now, they were lurking in Aili's blood and observing their new master.
As for whether she could gain their acknowledgement, that was another question.
Aili didn't particularly want to gain their acknowledgement. In the current situation, although these familiars were strong, they were not easy to control. They might even be dangerous if they were too strong.
If they were released on the battlefield of a country against thousands of enemies, it would be very useful, but if they were simply hunting down a fugitive … .Nobody would launch a ballistic missile just to defeat a petty thief, right?
So today, Aili was at home preparing dinner for her sister who had just returned from school.
"Ah, sister! Did you know? There's a transfer student in our class today. "
"Is that so?"
Aili tilted her head curiously when she heard Misha's report.
"It's rare to see a transfer student at this time."
"Well, her name is Ji Zhuo Xuecai. She's a very cute girl. Do you know her, sister?"
"Of course not. Why are you asking me that?"
Hearing Sha's question, Ally looked at her in confusion.
"Because that girl asked me about it. After I introduced myself, she asked me if I had a sister and what kind of person you are."
"And then?"
"Of course I told her everything in detail. For example, where we lived before we came to this island, your situation in school, what you like to eat, and about Shallot and the others. I told her everything in detail!"
"Hah …."
Aili couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard that.
"Don't always talk about those things. The person in question will only feel embarrassed."
"What does it matter?
I'm telling the truth. After all, sister is indeed beautiful, gentle, and powerful. "
Because they grew up together, Misha and Aili's relationship was quite deep. Especially the younger sister who always treated her sister as her idol. Misha would often talk about her sister in class, which made Aili feel awkward sometimes. She obviously didn't do anything special, but she was praised. It didn't feel right no matter how she thought about it.
To put it bluntly, Misha had a serious case of sister-crush. But fortunately, compared to Qiong, she was still considered normal. At least she didn't run to Aili's bed in the middle of the night and do things that she shouldn't do. She didn't lock herself in her room calling her sister's name and immersing herself in some indescribable delusion.
If that was the case, it would be dangerous.
"Ding dong."
At this moment, the doorbell rang. Aili put down the spatula in her hand, turned off the flame, and looked at the door. Then, she picked up a scarf to wipe her hands and walked to the door.
"Coming. Who are you looking for?"
As she spoke, Aili opened the door. Outside the door stood a beautiful and cute girl with black hair wearing the same uniform as Misha. When she saw Aili, she nervously lowered her head.
"Erm, erm …. I'm Ji Mo, who just moved here. Please take care of me!"
"Ji Mo?"
Aili was stunned when she heard the surname. If she remembered correctly, Misha had just said this name ….
"Ah, it's pickled cabbage!!"
At the same time, Misha's excited scream came from behind Aili. Misha ran to the door with a smile and grabbed the black-haired girl in front of her.
"Sister, this is the transfer student I introduced to you just now!"
