Chapter 100: Hand Over The Queen Of Shusite!
Harry followed the old witch in a daze. She led him through the castle directly to the throne room.
As soon as he entered the throne room, Harry smiled coldly.
There she was. The queen of Shusite. All he wanted was to kill her right now. That would complete his mission, and he could get out of here.
The old witch made signs with her face, trying to convey something to the queens who looked at him coldly.
The queen of Shusite did not bother about it as she continued to glare at me with anger, while the queen of Aduseon suddenly changed her expression into a friendly smile from her previous cold and unfeeling look.
She asked in an extremely warm tone, "What is the message that the honorable human king has sent?"
Harry felt amused. If he did not see the previous expression of the queen of Aduseon, he would have believed that the facade that she was displaying now was true. She deserved an oscar, didn't she?
Harry immediately said to his system within his head, "Give me the boost now, system."
[Okay Host. You will temporarily be able to use magic and know all the spells available in this world.]
"Pluto, will you have to take control of me this time?", asked Harry. He really did not want Pluto to take control of his body. It was not really the best feeling.
Pluto laughed softly and said, "No, it is not needed this time. For some reason, your system has also given you knowledge of the magic spells, thus making you not need my help."
Harry smiled before saying, "When will I be able to use magic on my own without having to take the System's boost?"
[Host, it will be unlocked as soon as you proceed to the next world.]
Harry laughed and was about to say something else in his mind when a sharp and mocking voice interrupted him.
"Are you going to announce the message or not?! Come out of your fantasies and do your job!", said the queen of Shusite.
Harry then realized that it had been a minute since the queen of Aduseon had asked him to announce the message. He looked in front of him to see a very irritated Queen of Shusite, a bored princess, and the queen of Aduseon looking at him, struggling to keep the friendly smile on her face.
He then said in a solemn voice, "My king has announced this, 'Hand Over The Queen Of Shusite, or suffer the consequences.'"
The previously bored princess who was fiddling around with her hands froze. She turned and looked at the man in black armor with shock written all over her face.
The queen of Shusite looked at the man in black armor blankly. She couldn't process what the man in black armor had just said. What was the king of the humans thinking?! Did he really think that the witches would hand her over just because he asked and threatened them with the threat of war?
Then again, she was unsure if they'd do it or not herself. The humans seemed to have suddenly gained and acquired heavenly powers, so for all she knew, the grand ancestor might be intimidated into giving her up.
This thought though made a chill penetrate through her spine. The only assurance she had was that she could always escape. Except for the grand ancestor, there was no one in this room or nearby surroundings who could stop her.
But then, another headache took over her. Will the grand ancestor let her escape? She seemed to be really afraid of the humans. What if she caught her and handed her over to show her sincerity?
Just when she was caught up in that dilemma, a voice echoed through her mind. "Get out of here. Use your levitation ability and get as far away as you can from here. Go to a far away land and live the rest of your life in peace. I'll pretend as if I try to catch you, but I won't really. So don't panic, and escape."
Ah. Telepathy. It was an ability that high level witches could use by consuming quite a bit of mana.
The queen of Shusite immediately felt warmness radiate through her heart. The grand ancestor was giving her a chance to escape. She decided to pay heed to her advice and leave her pursuit for revenge.
The humans had become too strong. There was no use for her to sacrifice her life over the pursuit of something that she wouldn't be able to achieve.
Even if she still stubbornly insisted for revenge, she would only be causing trouble for all the living witches in Aduseon, to take revenge for the dead witches of Shsusite.
Maybe she could go on a world tour. Or maybe she could settle down somewhere.
She smiled softly and said in her mind, "Okay. I'll do as you say."
She immediately activated levitation easily by chanting some incantation softly and flew towards the majestic throne room's doors, in an attempt to escape.
But life...
Life is always not that easy...
Harry smiled demonically as he expected the escape attempt of the queen of Shusite.
He raised his hand and subconsciously chanted the word, "Afrety."
The word surfaced in his mind along with it's usage as soon as he saw the queen of Shusite flying away. It was a binding spell.
Chanting it seemed the most natural thing he could do. As soon as he chanted the word, the queen of Shusite lurched mid air and flew back towards him, as if she was suddenly grabbed by the collar by someone and was being dragged.
