Chapter 51: You Can Always Be Found

Feiye’s domain shattered Caroline’s understanding of conventional domains.
This kind of domain, where you throw in an immortal, endlessly powerful dummy to fight to the death while the real body stays outside doing nothing, was something she had never seen before.

From start to finish, this domain could be summed up in just two words: shameless.

Who would have thought that someone could still be hidden inside this little fellow’s shadow?

If Peleti were really in danger, she could just be stuffed directly into the shadow.
Peleti might easily be accidentally injured in a chaotic fight, but Feiye would not.
Her raw strength was there for all to see, and very few people could hurt her.

“By problem, do you mean what you told me back then about Feiye?”

Caroline nodded, her gaze shifting to Feiye in Peleti’s arms.

“More or less, though I didn’t expect the problem to grow this big…”

“Give her back to me.
I need to go to the Elven King’s Palace.”

Feiye’s face was full of reluctance, but under Peleti’s gaze, she grudgingly released Olivia from her shadow.

In the next moment, a blonde girl flew out of Feiye’s shadow as if she had been kicked out by someone.

“Ah, that hurts, that hurts.
You really don’t know how to cherish delicate beauty.
Hi, nice to meet you, beautiful young lady.”
Olivia rubbed her bruised elbow, yet still flashed Peleti a brilliant smile.

“That’s enough.
Don’t cause trouble at a time like this.
I’m leaving now.
Goodbye, Witch of Light.”
With that, Caroline gave Olivia no chance to argue, wrapped an arm around her waist, and in the blink of an eye, the two figures vanished, leaving only Peleti standing alone on the empty street.

“Wow, as expected of the Witch of Wind.
That speed really is something else.”

Looking at the azure sky, Peleti could not help but sigh.

When would she be able to disappear like that in an instant?
As she was now…

Forget it.
From the moment she became a witch until now, Peleti had basically been beaten down by all kinds of big shots, with no room to fight back at all.

“Feiye, have there ever been any Witches of Light among witches before?”

“No.
You’re the first witch with light-element affinity, Big Sister.”
Feiye gently shook her head, her hair brushing against Peleti’s chin.

Peleti understood immediately.

According to Feiye, she was the first witch with light-element affinity, and Aierberna most likely already knew about her light-element affinity.

With her abilities, it would not be hard to deduce that Peleti was a newly born witch and then track down her human identity.

Peleti did not care much about that.
From here to Black City, even by train it would take a full day and night, not to mention investigating her personal information.
By the time Aierberna found out, Peleti would probably no longer be in human territory.

By then, no matter how much she investigated, it would be meaningless.

Aierberna was probably busy right now.
With both maids here, it was entirely possible that the shop had been closed.

Perfect timing to take Feiye out to relax a little.

“Qingcheng, how much do you know about her?
Is she also a Witch of Light?”

“No.
Sister Qingcheng is the Witch of Charm.
Like you, she has light-element affinity and Blood Feast.
The difference is that Sister Qingcheng has an ability called Charm.
And Sister Isabella felt that calling her Witch of Light directly would be too conspicuous, so Sister Qingcheng’s title became Witch of Charm.”

“Huh?
That’s a thing?”

Peleti did not even dare imagine what Farisa would become if she herself had a Charm skill.

Her original appearance was already devastating enough to young boys who had just entered society.
Even Yilian, who was also a woman, had an extremely high favorability toward her (lust).
If she also had a Charm ability, she did not dare imagine what she could do to Yilian and Aierberna.

If she ran into trouble, she could just charm with a glance and solve it.
That was far stronger than her current situation of knowing nothing at all.

With a title like Witch of Charm, Qingcheng must have done quite a bit of luring innocent young girls.
Though if it were her, she would do the same.
Many times, not doing something and not being able to do it were two different things.

There was still a difference.
She lacked the tools to commit the crime, but that did not stop her from gossiping about Qingcheng to her face the next time they met.

“Does she have any dark history or something?
Tell me about it.
I’m actually pretty curious.”

“Dark history… um, no, no.”
Feiye’s face suddenly flushed red, like a ripe apple.

“All right.”
Seeing Feiye like this, Peleti knew there definitely was something.
Feiye just did not dare to say it.

She was the Witch of Charm, after all, a witch born with Charm.
If she ever met a powerful person who was somewhat repressed, the possibility of being pushed over was very high.
It was impossible for her to have no dark history at all.

It was understandable that Feiye did not dare say it.
After all, Qingcheng was not dead.
That old bastard was still alive and might be hiding somewhere watching her.

“What is the mark on my neck used for?
I should at least know that.”

“Uh… this…”
Feiye tapped her fingertips together, her pretty face flushed with obvious nervousness, twisting about without knowing how to speak.

“Uh… is it serious?”
Peleti asked tentatively.
She did not know much about such things, but judging from the pain when it was carved, it probably was not something good.

“It’s not serious to use… it’s just, um… a [Blood Mark].
Mm, just a Blood Mark.”
Feiye looked a little guilty.

“[Blood Mark]?
Are you sure this thing really has no other use?”

“It’s… a tradition on the vampire side.
Vampires value family very much.
They will carve their own Blood Mark onto someone important to them.
That way, even if the two are separated by tens of thousands of miles, they can sense each other.”
Feiye explained softly, her voice as faint as a mosquito’s buzz.

“Huh?
A vampire tradition?
You stayed with vampires before?”

“Yes, haha.
I was an imperial princess there for over two hundred years.
Later I felt it didn’t suit me and came to the Tower.”

“You were a vampire princess too?!”

“In name only!”
Feiye hurriedly waved her hands.
“After all, I’m essentially still human…”

“Human… I remember that during that period, humans were more like slaves, right?
Weren’t [Blood Marks] used to imprison slaves?”

“Humans didn’t have that high a status…
[Blood Marks] require mixing one’s own blood with the other person’s blood.
Slaves don’t have that honor.
Feeling pain is normal.
For vampires, pain and pleasure are almost the same.
Their ability to perceive pain has long since nearly degenerated.
But you don’t have that, Big Sister, so it hurts a lot…”

“It’s fine.
It only hurt for a moment anyway.
And with this, doesn’t it mean that no matter where I am, you can find me?”
Peleti lifted the collar and pointed to the Blood Mark on her neck.

“Yes.
Unless you’re exiled to another dimension by god-level power, Feiye can find you no matter where you are.”

“So magical.”

Did that mean she could recklessly court death from now on?

After all, with Qiaosuna’s methods, she definitely could not erase the [Blood Mark] on her.
Even if she were locked in a basement, there would be nothing to fear.

The setting sun stretched their two figures long.
Their overlapping shadows gently swayed on the bluestone road, like an unfinished poem.
