In that space, it is full of darkness, loneliness, despair, sadness, and the 'illusion' of being embraced by someone and expressing love.

What was different from that time was that this time in front of him, there were other people, as well as a witch named Echidna sitting there.

"Since you don't know exactly what to ask, how about letting me confirm your question?"

Clapping her palms, Echidna didn't care about the changes in the surrounding scenery at all, and said to Subaru with a smile as if she was still in a quiet plain.

"May I ask Daphne, the 'Gluttony Witch' who created a beast different from the Destiny Beast in order to save the common people in the world from starvation?"

"Or the 'Witch of Lust' Camilla who wants to fill the world with love and give emotions to inhumans?"

"Or is it Minerva, the 'Witch of Wrath' who sighs that the world is full of strife and heals everyone with violence?"

"Or the 'Sloth Witch' Sehmet who drove the dragon across the waterfall just to bring peace and comfort?"

"Or is it the 'arrogant witch' Tifeng who keeps punishing sinners because of her innocence and lack of mercy?"

Echidna said the names of witches one after another, which Subaru knew, but in fact, except for Echidna and Satila, there were no other witches remembered.

And Echidona still didn't finish her sentence, she continued: "Or is it the 'Witch of Greed' Echidna who yearns for all wisdom and even turns into a lingering thirst for knowledge after death?"

"Or is it the 'witch of jealousy' who destroys all witches as his own food and is an enemy of the world. Came here for that annoying her?"

Speaking of this, Echidna paused for a moment, showing a self-deprecating and ironic smile, as if she dismissed the 'jealous witch' she said, and felt ridiculous at herself who died at the hands of the jealous witch.

However, just when Subaru thought Echidna's words were over, she opened her mouth again.

"Of course, it's also possible... to search for the one who has been with you since birth, but you don't know why it came, nor when it left."

"Where's Miss System?"

"--what!?"

Fear is spreading, that is my biggest secret, a secret that I have never told anyone, only exists in my heart, a secret, a secret that I don't want to be discovered by others.

As if 'death' entangles the body and is about to enter the 'dead land' and cannot break free, it seems to be the fear of crushing the body and spirit.

When the words "Miss System" in Echidna's mouth blurted out, Subaru couldn't even speak, the behavior of wanting to make a sound, wanting to deny it was like stretching out a hand that was about to be frozen in the arctic circle. Like a corpse, it can only make a messy sound like 'ahhh'.

At this moment, even his thinking was frozen.

"Oops, it seems that the 'threat' has gone too far~"

Echidna's playful and troubled voice resounded, and the surrounding pitch-black landscape returned to the original grassy plain. The breeze blew past Subaru, but it couldn't relieve the coldness that arose from the inside out. meaning.

"I can't help it. I have had the bad habit of being unable to control once the nature comes from before, and I also blame you for being so cute, so I can't help but want to tease it."

"The witch is such a troublesome creature, so I hope you can get used to it, otherwise, if you always stay like this in the future, I will be very distressed."

"you……"

Subaru tried his best to control his beating heart that seemed to want to break free from his body, and opened his mouth to say something.But at the same time as he spoke, his body trembled uncontrollably, as if his fear had been detonated in an instant, and his face became even more ugly.

"Ugh..."

"Oh, the speed is indeed very fast. It should be said that it is worthy of it. Even though I already know it, I feel very strange every time I see it~"

"And it just happened to react at this time. It looked like I was so frightened that I was trembling and speechless. I have to record this scene properly!"

"what are you saying?"

The intense physical discomfort and ringing in his ears made it difficult for Subaru to hear what the witch was saying, but he could be sure that his body's reaction had something to do with that witch.

The abnormal beating of the heart, the numbness of the hands and feet, and the pain of the nerves, this kind of thing is definitely not a reaction that can be produced by pure fear.

However, this feeling came and went quickly, just when Subaru wondered if he was really going to die, all the abnormal feelings disappeared as if they didn't exist in the first place.

"Do you remember the body fluid I drank just now, that can activate the witch factor in your body!"

"Although I can slowly become active even if I leave it alone, my body fluids speed up this rhythm, making the witch factor active all at once."

"In this way, you will be able to use the power brought by the witch factor. I am helping you, so thank me quickly!"

"...Even if you say that, I don't have the slightest thanks to you at all."

Gritting his teeth, Subaru said to Echidna, after the abnormal state of his body just now, it also relieved the strong impact of Echidna's words on him.

But now, other problems are no longer important. He is here, and there is only one problem at this moment, an extremely important problem that must not be ignored.

"Why... you know Miss System!?"

Chapter 338 You Have No Secrets In My Eyes

"Why... you know Miss System!?"

"Why would you know?"

Echidna tilted her head in bewilderment, not understanding why Subaru asked such an obvious question.

"If you keep asking such boring questions, even I will get bored..."

"Isn't the matter very simple, because I am Echidna, the 'witch of lust'. The so-called 'desire', the 'desire' I represent has just been mentioned.

"Pursuing all the wisdom in the world, she is reluctant to give up even after death, a 'greedy witch' who pursues all knowledge."

"Speaking of this level, can't you understand? It is precisely because of the knowledge you crave that you know all the knowledge in the world, and the so-called knowledge is not just one-sided common sense and learning. Everything that has happened in the world has not yet happened. What happens is all 'knowledge', which is the 'lust' I long for!"

"...I'm not asking this kind of thing that I can understand even if I don't say it!"

"Witch of Lust" Echidna is a witch who craves knowledge, even if Echidna doesn't repeatedly emphasize Subaru, she knows it clearly.

Not to mention that Beatrice is an artificial elf created by Echidna, even some books in the forbidden library also introduce what kind of person Echidna is.

But, but—

"Why do you know 'knowledge' that doesn't belong to this world!?"

Subaru had no intention of hiding the fact that he was not from this world at all. No, it should be said that even if the other party still couldn't confirm the relationship between the enemy and the friend, Subaru had no need to hide it.

After Echidna uttered the words 'Miss System', Subaru's doubts about whether she knew that she would be able to return to her original world had become a solid reality, not a fantasy. Confuse.

but--

"Shouldn't the knowledge you know only belong to this world?"

"—No one has said, nor has anyone stipulated, that the 'knowledge' of Echidna, the 'Witch of Lust', will only be limited to what she is, what she lives, what she is born, and what she dies... this world?"

Echidna was still smiling as before, but Subaru felt that there was indescribable ridicule and sarcasm in this smile, and whether the object of this sarcasm was him, Subaru was not sure.

"Where is the justification for the knowledge that the 'Witch of Lust' knows? Does the 'Witch of Lust' know knowledge that does not belong to this world? Does the 'Witch of Lust' have 'knowledge' that she does not know?"

"No matter what kind of rumors, no matter what kind of speculation, in the final analysis, it has not been acknowledged and approved by me. It is a groundless guess, isn't it?"

"Then, if all I know from the beginning is not only the knowledge of this world, shouldn't the things you are puzzled by be taken for granted?"

"In my eyes, nothing about you is a secret~"

As she spoke, Echidna began to look down at Subaru's face, and the smile on her face also had an inexplicable meaning.

"Of course, even if it is something that is too cruel for girls, I am very clear~"

"...What are you talking about suddenly in such a serious atmosphere!"

Subaru deliberately covered the vital parts of his body, obviously he was wearing clothes, but at this moment he had the illusion that Echidna had seen his entire body.

This broke his originally dignified mind, and he became embarrassed instead.

"Ah, I just feel that the atmosphere is too serious, and I'm afraid that it will frighten you, the timid one, so I just want to liven up the atmosphere."

"Of course, I'm not lying to you, even though I'm talking about a lively atmosphere. For a girl, even a woman who has experienced a lot of battles, I'm afraid she will lose her armor when facing you~"

"Please, please don't say any more, if you continue, I want to find a hole to get in and never come out again!"

It was supposed to be a very serious situation, and a situation that could lead to falling out immediately if she was not careful, but now it turned into Echidna's unilateral teasing of Subaru.

Embarrassed, Subaru didn't even dare to look at Echidna, for fear of seeing Echidna's weird smile and making himself even more ashamed.

"I once again have a deeper understanding of your bad character!"

"Yeah, although I've said this more than once, I still accept your compliment."

Echidna nodded, and said with a smile: "I don't want to irritate you so much that you can't continue talking because of my bad taste, otherwise, the person who came to my castle with great difficulty suddenly left, how could I Aren't you about to fall into boredom again?"

"Are you saying that I'm actually your toy for fun?"

Subaru muttered dissatisfiedly, but he quickly realized a problem with Echidna's words.

"What you just said... Do you mean that I can actually leave here on my own initiative?"

"No, you can't leave my 'castle' without my consent."

Echidna denied Subaru's guess without hesitation.

"Then what do you mean by that..."

Subaru sighed, and he realized the reality again. If he wanted to leave here, he still needed Echidna's consent, so he also needed to satisfy Echidna's bad taste, even she herself admitted' Bad character' will do.

"Because, if you stop talking because you are angry, wouldn't I have to face a silent 'dumb'? This is even more unbearable than staying here alone! "

"At that time, I may or may not do some bad things~ Well... I don't think you want to know what the 'bad things' are."

"I really don't want to know..."

Subaru squeezed his forehead in distress, and what made him wake up calmly was not only Echidna's statement that he could not leave without her consent, but also the words Miss System suddenly said in his mind.

Although Miss System usually rarely interrupts him when he is talking to other people or doing business, but it is the first time that he does not appear when the other party is clearly unable to identify friends and foes, and he is still passive. .

But Subaru didn't think too much about it. After all, the other party was a witch who knew Miss System existed, and Miss System probably didn't have any good ways to fight her.

As for what Miss System said to him...

Chapter 339 Question left over

"Then you are not curious?"

Echidna smiled and asked Subaru: "What is the nature of Miss System, where did it come from, and why is it on you? Don't you want to know about these things that you have never known?"

"As long as you ask me, as a 'witch of lust', I will definitely give you the most correct and true answer!"

"Sorry, I don't want to know anything about what you said."
