Chapter 230: Chapter 160: Forming an Alliance with a Witch?_1

The Water Elementals quickly rushed down the stairs, engaging in battle with the wizard apprentices who were fighting within the castle. Soon, with the number of enemies greatly surpassing their own, these wizards were completely defeated.

After dealing with this, Ivita and the Old Witch left the study. They opened the door to the corridor, only to see the floor littered with bodies.

Ivita said to the Old Witch, "Later, find some men to clean up these corpses. Have Alysia control the maids so they don’t run around."

"Also, clean the blood off the walls, and find a few masons to repair the walls and burnt areas."

"A little repair will do."

The Old Witch immediately nodded, "Your Highness, I understand."

As she left the second-floor hallway to fetch people, Ivita gazed at the corpses littering the hallway and sighed.

He couldn’t identify when he had become accustomed to such a life.

No matter.

Trying to return to a normal life now would probably make him feel out of place anyway.

Now that he had perfected both Divination and Water Magic, his current plan was to find ways to make the magic under his command his Destiny Magic, as well as to extract information about the Elemental Flower from Lady Robin.

As Ivita was about to descend the stairs, he caught a glimpse of a woman’s shadow appearing in the corridor out of the corner of his eye.

"If I were you, I certainly wouldn’t dare to show my face before me." Ivita twirled the Ring of Desire on his right hand, speaking whimsically.

The person who appeared was surprisingly a blonde girl, Milani, who had left earlier.

She was wearing a simple white dress, tied at the waist with a golden belt.

Milani looked sorrowfully at the bodies on the floor, heaving a sigh. Her judgement at that time was indeed not wrong.

She knelt down, stroking Klauk’s face and closed his eyes. "These people all accompanied me during the tedious days of my childhood."

"But seeing them dead in front of me now, I..."

Ivita turned around, looking at her coldly. "So, you want to avenge them?"

"Let me remind you, it was you people of Kappa Town who attacked me first."

Milani stood up and brushed off the dust from her hands, "On the contrary, I merely wanted to illustrate the extent of my losses in this attack on you."

"To invoke your sympathy, which may lead us to form an alliance."

"My name is Milani."

"In your struggle against the Witch’s Grave, you may need a friend like me. Friends equate to strength. The more friends you have, the stronger your power."

Ivita was taken aback.

An alliance?

He had thought that this girl, who had stayed behind, was planning to attack him here. But, surprisingly, she was here to propose an alliance.

At this moment?

Right after he killed their thirty wizard apprentices?

It seems factions indeed exist within the Grave, just like the two factions into which Ambros now divided.

Ivita chuckled coldly. "I’m afraid I won’t be forming an alliance with the weak."

"Besides, you attacked me today and they are now dead, which has given me an explanation. But you have not given me an explanation yet."

Milani took out a black rose petal from a necklace she was wearing.

Ivita was stunned for a moment, then he also took out a daffodil petal from his own necklace.

Both these petals were petals of fairy flowers.

"This is a protective talisman given to me by the Black Fairy - a very powerful Defense spell. You should know that a Fairy’s blessing is almost unbreakable, right?" Milani strolled leisurely along the corridor, "Look, I have proven that killing or capturing me would come at a hefty cost. So, can we talk now?"

"You killed my people." Ivita spun the Thunder Eye Ring on his finger, and lightning wrapped around both his hands.

Milani’s eyes narrowed suddenly. Lightning Magic.

How much power does a wizard apprentice hold?

She had always been considered a prodigy by the witches of the graveyard, but since meeting Ivita today, she felt like she was not living up to the title.

Milani coughed and said, "Honorable Lord Wizard."

"I was initially appointed by the Witch’s Graveyard."

"So I snuck in here, you can’t blame the leader’s mistake on a low-ranking soldier, can you?"

"I was only following orders."

Ivita chuckled, finding the way this woman talked amusing. "So now, Miss Milani has left the Witch’s Graveyard?"

"So can we talk calmly?"

Milani shook her head and said: "I am a witch, I have the right to independent thinking."

"Perhaps you think I am just a witch apprentice, but that’s not the case, I just didn’t want to get promoted to a full witch at this time."

Milani was sensing the Hearthstone Witch’s position with her magical power, as soon as the Hearthstone Witch goes upstairs, she will immediately escape.

"Ivita Augustus, Kappa Town – The Witch’s Graveyard was originally a guardian to protect a secret, but now the leader of the Witch’s Graveyard thinks that the Witch’s Graveyard and the power of ancestors are his tools to fulfill his personal ambitions."

"In this chaos, Ambros is eager to strengthen his power, others think he is protecting us, but I know he is trying to take advantage of the chaos to gain greater rights."

Milani took a few steps closer to Ivita. "He wants to obtain what the wizards of Kappa Town have never had before...a powerful secular authority."

"To put it bluntly, you are now against the Witch’s Graveyard, and I also want to change the current Witch’s Graveyard."

"Therefore, the Wizard who is currently the leader of the Witch’s Graveyard, Hugo Russo, is our common enemy."

"Lord Augustus, you need an ally like me!"

Milani said: "Kappa Town is not far from your territory. If I become the Lord Wizard of the Witch’s Graveyard and you are my ally, you will get a good neighbor who is willing to help others."

Ivita started seriously considering.

Actually, they can form an alliance.

Even though she didn’t trust this witch, who appeared suddenly and had an unclear stance, the witch wanted to be an ally, not an employee.

She didn’t need to know everything about her.

If the Witch’s Graveyard really became her mortal enemy, having a spy would be the best thing for her.

As long as the intelligence work is done well, victory can be guaranteed.

But...

Ivan said: "Milani, you did persuade me."

"There’s just one problem."

"From my perspective, you just want me to help you against your enemies, but even mercenaries need to be paid."

"Just like that, you want me to help you."

"You’re thinking too beautifully."

"Tell me what you can offer me besides... your cheap intelligence. If it interests me, I’ll let you leave here and form an alliance with you."

Ivita walked behind Milani.

This made all of Milani’s hair stand on end.

It was indeed tricky to negotiate with a tiger for its skin.

Milani thought to herself.

Milani said: "Although I am only a witch, I come from a prominent background and can offer you a piece of territory."

Ivita paused for a moment. "It’s tempting, but it’s not enough."

He stood behind Milani, her heart racing even with the defensive magic petal of the Black Fairy in her hand.

Suddenly, she realized that negotiating with Ivita might have been a mistake.

Too powerful an ally will inevitably make the weaker allies become vassals.
