Miss Witch, please don't leave your fragrance everywhere

Chapter 89 The Witch Doesn’t Understand People’s Hearts
 
Liches do not have the concept of natural aging and death. They themselves are undead creatures transformed after death, so madness is their fate.

Albert knew that he was about to reach the critical point of madness.
"A lich cannot kill himself."
Angelica continued.

"The lich must be killed by others. It seems that you are not aware of this. Then I have to do it."
"We won't allow you to kill our father!"
Emily was determined and Edward also raised his arms and shouted.

"Have you given up your father because of the witch's bewitching? Have you forgotten who picked us up from the forest and gave us a real life? We chose to stay here... just to protect our father!"
"...Brother Edward is right! We can't give up on father!"
"Even if father's soul changes, he is still our father... We will find a way to save father!"

"No, it's impossible."
Angelica decisively rejected the determination of Edward and others.
"Once a lich falls into madness, there is no cure, just like a dead person cannot be resurrected. You may have cooperated for a long time, but you should be aware of Albert's strength. If he falls into madness, you will not be able to kill Albert without any casualties."

Edward and Emily were actually aware of the facts Angelica pointed out, as were other powerful magicians. Despite this, they still refused to abandon Albert.
Even in the eyes of Edward and others, Angelica was almost ruthless and unreasonable.
"You... you don't understand how much our father has done for us! The rumors are right, witches are cold-blooded creatures!"

“…”
Angelica stopped talking nonsense with Edward and others, and chose to support her point of view with actions.
Edward, Emily and others hastily responded to the battle, but the witch's expression seemed to be mocking their futility. In fact, this was indeed the case. No matter how they fought, the witch was an existence that they could not shake.
Temperance Sequence 1: Global Blockade.

Horologium Series 1: Sands of Time.
Just like when Angelica broke through the magician group before, Angelica seized the initiative with the absolute suppression of the high-level sequence. She raised her left hand towards Albert and controlled everything on the field in the static time.
"Greed, Sequence 7: Telekinesis."

A treasure box floated out of Emily's pocket. Telekinesis is a common telekinesis magic, which uses telekinesis to control an object to fly in a fixed direction. However, it is basically not practical in combat because it cannot act on living things, the movement speed is not very fast, and the strength is far from enough to make the opponent unable to resist.
But it is a different story in the realm of still time. What Angelica took out is called the Life Box, which is the true soul of the lich.
The body of a lich is only a representation. After transforming into a lich, the lich will put his soul in the phylactery, completely sealing it, and even they themselves have no right to open it. As long as the phylactery is still there, simply destroying the lich's body is useless, and the lich can be reborn again after a period of time.

Time stops, but Angelica cannot stay still for too long. If time stops for too long, the consumption of magic power will double at a terrifying rate, and even the witch's magic power will be gone.
From Edward and the others' perspective, in the blink of an eye, Albert's life box appeared in the witch's hand.
"That's father's...?!"

"How did it end up in the hands of a witch?!"
"stop--"
Angelica ended Albert's life calmly without any unnecessary nonsense.

"Chastity Sequence Three: Exile from Heaven."
Angelica's left hand holding the life box emitted dazzling holy light. Although the life box had a certain degree of protection, it was completely destroyed by the holy light magic that restrained the undead in an instant.
Chastity's Sequence Three Heavenly Banishment is one of the Holy Light magics that specifically restrains undead creatures. Using it on oneself can purify the curse, while causing tons of damage to undead creatures.

The moment the life box was destroyed, the body of the lich Albert was enveloped by the blazing underworld fire, which was the proof that the lich's life was completely burned out.
"Father!"
"Father……"

The children adopted by the lich Albert surrounded Albert. They tried desperately to save Albert, but everything they did was in vain.
However, the lich Albert was not as panicked as his children. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"There's no need to be sad or upset about my death. Go and pursue your own happiness. It's time for my life to end. What I want to tell you is that it's you who made my life as a lich full of color."

Edward and the others were all choked with sobs. They swore to protect Albert, but they didn't expect it to end like this.
"I have no regrets in my life... Thank you, children, I will always love you, and I hope you can continue to live with love..."
After saying this, the body of the lich Albert was completely burned up, leaving no ashes behind. Edward and the others burst into tears.

Albert's last words hoped that they would not have any hatred, but some people still shouted the witch's name with hoarse voices. However, the witch seemed to have no interest in this final tragedy. After killing Albert, she left without looking back.
The magicians were convinced that the witch was a cold-blooded creature without emotions. Perhaps for her, the friendship from hundreds of years ago was still something she could discard at any time.
…

"Albert, you don't have much time."
"I know. So I'm glad you came to visit me at the last moment. The lich doesn't have the ability to commit suicide, and my children don't have the courage to do it... You're the only one I can ask for help."
"Really? Well, I ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) came to visit you specifically for this purpose. I turned you into a lich, so I know your limits. But I didn't expect you to adopt so many children in the past few decades."

"My phylactery has always been kept by them. If you want to kill me, you have to take it back from them. Now, the phylactery should be with Emily."
"Huh? So you're worried that I can't beat them?"
"You did this to fulfill my wish... but they might hold a grudge against you. They are all good and sensible children, but they are a little paranoid about this matter..."

"Well, it doesn't matter. The witch has been surrounded by countless rumors, and this one is no exception."
They probably think that witches are cold-blooded creatures who have lost their emotions.
But for the witch, it's just a matter of getting used to seeing off old friends - whether it's occasionally learning about the passing of an old friend, or seeing them off in person.
