Chapter 933 - 46: Twin Witches

Chapter 933: Chapter 46: Twin Witches

The Twin Witches, always on the move, finally arrived at the scene.

It was certainly not easy. Since receiving the blessing of the Celestial Mandate and becoming Araiyer’s Saint, they had literally taken off.

Their speed was supersonic; with the aid of spells and immense Spiritual Power, they were faster than the most advanced fighter jets. Moreover, they were on an island in Japan, so the distance was not far. Truly, they should have arrived at the scene in the blink of an eye.

But just as they appeared on the skyline, at the edge of the battlefield—

The next second, time stopped, and the whole world was plunged into a state of stasis.

This meant that despite their early appearance, they were still on the way, without any change in status. It was only until now that they truly entered the battlefield, gaining the opportunity to interact and confront the enemy.

"Evil Demon!"

Their simultaneous cry of denunciation echoed.

Their rapidly blurred figures arrived on the scene faster than sound, suddenly halting in mid-air. Without any warning, they went from high-speed mobility to instant stop, as if inertia did not exist.

The gaze of the Twin Witches instantly fixed on Tamamo no Mae, coldly uttering a word, while both acted in perfect harmony, sealing with their hands and chanting with their lips! In an instant, pure Spiritual Energy surged like a tide, sweeping through the atmosphere, radiating an astonishing glow of Spiritual Power!

Hand gestures!

Movements!

Chants!

The prerequisites and steps for casting spells seemed to overlap in an instant, completed almost simultaneously!

It was like mirror synchronization; the steps and actions of casting spells at high speed were not just similar, but exactly the same.

As a result, the double firepower was unleashed fiercely, blazing flames like a fire dragon, and the light of thunder bursting like a Divine Spirit’s spear of light. Combined, they resembled the Heroic King from mythology, descending from the heavens with wrathful thunder and fire, striking the earth hard, punishing the enemy!

Such dazzling and blinding light effects naturally illuminated the sky instantly, accompanied by the whistling sound of wind and fire, or the thunderous boom of thunder, the brilliant glow of Spiritual Power even overshadowed the summer sun!

The thunder and fire converged like a doomsday cloud, gathering all energy, desperately striking all heavenly punishments, fiercely attacking the Fox Elf below!

As if the heavens were collapsing, and the sky was wrathful, descending heavenly tribulation to punish demons!!

"Ah!!"

"My eyes..."

"Blinded, blinded! So dazzling!!"

At this moment, countless people watching from afar at the edge of the sky suddenly felt a particularly bright flash of light in their vision.

It was as if someone had suddenly wielded a welder in front of their eyes. Caught off guard, they were flash-blinded. Some instinctively squinted, while others tightly closed their eyes, only to be brought to tears by the intense light.

In this instant, waves of small commotions ensued within the densely populated areas on the western coast of the Pacific Rim, affecting nearly half the Earth.

But that was all; it did not garnish much concern or distract them. Truth be told, it was not a big deal. Many continued to rub their rapidly reddening eyes, wiping away tears, all the while straining to keep their eyes wide open, desperately watching the events unfolding in the distance.

Tension.

Anxiety.

Worry.

Unavoidably, there was a feeling of holding one’s breath, the strings in their hearts wound tightly.

Although many were inevitably slow to react or subconsciously unwilling to believe, refusing to accept this magical development.

After all, the worldview of the past decades had long been firmly established, not so easily abandoned or swiftly adjusted. What’s more, everything happened so fast, leaving no time to catch a breath. The entire world had already turned upside-down, enforcing a major update version.

—Really, it’s not their fault.

Just last night, the Killing Stone shattered. This morning, they watched the news, and by noon, it was already evident that legends had turned into reality, right before their eyes...

This barrage of events happened within a single day, not even beyond twenty-four hours. Such rapid and colossal changes made the world feel unfamiliar overnight. How could they possibly accept and shift their worldview?

They had always thought this was an ordinary world, where miracles and magic did not exist.

That’s what it was supposed to be...

They also once had a youth, naturally they also had all kinds of fantasies, but as they walked out of the ivory tower and stepped into society, their hearts were smoothed out.

Now, in a blur, they watch the magical scenes playing out in the real world, watching the Nine-tailed Sky Covering stretch across the continents, watching the attacks of missiles and fighter jets, watching the figure of a young girl rise into the air, her steps as light as floating on water, releasing spells... the realism of this is beyond any Hollywood blockbuster’s special effects!

Their hearts couldn’t help but tremble, feeling waves of chills across their scalp—

Where is the miracle? Where is the awe? Where are the sleepless nights they once spent, where are the fantasies they once went crazy over?

Strictly speaking, this is not actually fear, but a kind of surging emotion.

They are truly excited.

Of course, it is mainly because what they are currently watching, this reality-based Mortal Kombat, is too magical and luxurious. They are watching from afar, observing the godly battle from the ground, without being directly affected, at most oppressed by the terrifying aura, feeling like they can’t breathe, as if suffocating.

But having not suffered any substantive harm, naturally, they lack a clear perception, just feeling their hearts surge, blood boiling, enviously mesmerized.

However—compared to them, the global leaders don’t have such strong nerves.

They are extremely clear about what will happen, very clear about the serious consequences, otherwise, they would not have initiated such decisive military action. Merely regular strikes, wave after wave, all ineffective, leaving them frantic.

Do they really need to use the ultimate measure?

Do they really have to go that far?

Though nuclear weapons are tremendously powerful, they are a double-edged sword; otherwise, those rogue states controlling atomic and hydrogen bombs wouldn’t have kept themselves restrained all this time. Not only are they wary of countermeasures from other rogues, but they also know the destructiveness of these weapons is too great.

If unchecked, even killing the enemy will come with considerable costs.

They’re wrestling with this dilemma, unsure if they should use this ultimate measure. Equally worried, as this is humanity’s final card; if it can’t function, what else can they do?

Before the nightmare of legends came true, they might not have been this shocked, even feeling quite confident. ℴ

After all, today’s times are different from the past; ancient times differ from modern times. In ancient times, people did not have the powerful modernized military nor the decisive ultimate weapons. Now, after hundreds of years of development, humanity is not what it used to be; maybe Tamamo no Mae won’t be such a major threat...

But now it seems, they were still somewhat naive...

...

Turning the view back to the battlefield.

"Humph! Little girl doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth..."

Faced with the combined concentrated attack of Kenshan Yellow Springs and Togami Kagura, Miss Tamamo no Mae immediately felt displeased, since she instinctively felt repulsion towards these two suddenly appearing Black and White Witches.

With a powerful wave of her hand, a full screen of spells shattered one after another, swept away by her sleeve, erasing the very existence of the Technique itself!

"..."

"..."

The Twin Witches no longer spoke; at this moment, they were of one heart and mind, their synchronization rate soaring directly past 400%. Whether piloting the EVA Unit-01 or operating a Jaeger in Pacific Rim was completely problem-free.

"Tch."

Miss Tamamo no Mae scoffed dismissively, her beautiful eyes slightly squinting, observing the every word and deed, every gesture or expression of the two young girls opposite her.

The twin-like simultaneous actions, advancing and retreating together, the Black and White Witches akin in coordination to mirror images, bore expressions of extreme indifference at this moment. And from their bodies, a very mysterious aura faintly emanated.

Carefully gazing at them, one might faintly sense, as if countless murmurs were sounding in the ear, akin to the shouts of thousands, even more people, as if countless people were jointly calling, men, women, elders, children.

These voices gathered together, seemingly still very weak, yet resembling a mountain crumbling and sea billowing, with echoes booming in the void.

Of course, this is not a physical manifestation of sound or wave—

Hence it cannot be captured by human ears or any machine.

Only in personally viewing the twin Black and White Witches, will one inexplicably gain this realization, feeling this phenomenon reflected in them. It is a grand momentum, an imposing stream akin to millions of people, a majestic current empowered by celestial mandate!

Converging from all directions, condensing into a vast ocean upon their individual bodies.

Ubiquitous, chaotic and obscure, a collective subconscious forged by the will of countless people.

"So that’s how it is..." She couldn’t help but curl her lips, yet felt there’s even less need to worry; the opposite party is entirely unlike herself, unable to harness suppressive power.
