The strongest witch is a boy [Comprehensive]

Kartikeye had just returned to Asura City when a maid came and said that the witch invited him over, so he had to look at the guests around him.

Kali smiled understandingly and said, "I came too suddenly. If Karl has something to do, please deal with it first. I will take care of myself."

Kartikeye was still not at ease, so he simply kept the maid who came to deliver the message and asked her to follow Kali, and after a few more instructions, he went to the palace where the witch was.

The two maidens stood guard in front of the altar as usual, and bowed when they saw the prince of the Asura clan coming.

The elder sister among the witches said: "A letter from Mr. Gendaro, all the candidate witches have been found, and they are on their way back now. Therefore, I want to tell His Highness Kartikeye how to do the selection ceremony afterward."

Kartikeye nodded.

"Please tell me."

The two witches looked at each other, and the younger sister took the words with a slight pity in her expression.

"When the ceremony is held, all the candidate witches will come here and walk up to the altar one by one... Your Highness only needs to light a flame on the altar, and those who can walk out of the flame will become the new witches."

Candidate priestesses go up to the altar.

He lit a fire on the altar.

Kartikeye was able to connect these two things after a while, and the pain of burning his body reappeared in an instant. He pressed his arm and said in amazement: "The phantom flame of the Asura tribe—— It will burn the soul too!"

The two witches nodded calmly.

"Those who have no qualifications will disappear, and those who can accept the power of the Asura royal family are qualified to become new priestesses... From ancient times to the present, the priestesses of the Asura tribe have been selected in this way. Your Highness Kartikeye, please There is no need to feel sad or pity about this, all the candidate witches will be clearly informed of this, and those who want to quit can leave at that time, and all those who walk on the altar will definitely do it out of their own will, just like me and my sister... "

The priestess who was named smiled and nodded.

"Yes, my sister and I went through the test and selection voluntarily, and no one forced it. Your Highness Kartikeye, there is one thing that you also need to know - after the witch is selected by the flame, she will have and give her the flame With the same lifespan as the Asura royal family, even if the priestess dies, the priestess will be resurrected immediately... Only when the royal family dies, the priestess will die. Corresponding to such a huge glory, the risk of the selection ceremony will naturally be high, otherwise, Asura Why do the priestesses of the clan have a foothold in Asura City?"

After being shocked and angry, Kartikeye suddenly found that this statement had an unusually familiar part.

Priestesses have the same lifespan as royals...

With the total death……

The Red King...the Priestess...

The Mibu clan really originated from the Asura clan.

The custom of "the red king and the witch" that even the later generations of the red king did not know the origin actually originated so early.

According to the records of the Mibu clan, throughout the ages, the Red King of the Mibu clan would choose a "princess" to share their life with him, and usually that "princess" would also have the ability to "foresee the future"—no, this Asura clan The tradition of the ancients has blurred the original intention in the passing of many generations, and it is no longer the original appearance. Therefore, it is mistaken to confuse "Hoshimi who steers the Asura City" with "the priestess who shares the lifespan with King Asura". The tradition of "choosing a priestess with predictive ability" has been lost.

The two priestesses waited quietly for the Asura prince to accept this fact.

He must also accept this, just like the Asura kings of all ages.

Because this is the only way to select a priestess who can hold ceremonies and preside over prayers for the Asura tribe.

To be precise, when she was engulfed by the magic flame of the Asura tribe, the life of the "witch" as a "human being" had already ended, and what gave her the power to continue to survive was the magic power contained in the magic flame. The powerful vitality of the Shura royal family.It was a ceremony to select a witch, and it was also a ceremony for the Asura royal family to sign a life contract with the witch—the maiden accepted the power of the Asura and revived as an Asura, so she had the lifespan of the gods in one jump, and gained A power that has never been mastered in the past.

After a quarter of an hour, Kartikeye spoke again.

"Is this why the Asura royal family must be present in the ceremony?"

"Yes."

The two witches nodded.

"In the past, King Ashura usually presided over the ceremony. However, when we informed the king this time, the king said that he could not leave the border for the time being, so he sent a letter to His Highness. However, if His Highness is really unwilling to preside over the ceremony, we can delay it a little bit. The time for the ceremony... His Highness will contact the king again? The king loves His Highness so much, as long as you speak, the king will definitely come back."

"...No, no need."

Kartikeye clenched his hands, smiled wryly and shook his head.

Since the royal family of Asura must light the flame to hold the ceremony, what's the point of him pushing this matter to King Asura?

Pretending he didn't know the brutality of the ritual?

Pretending that the sacrifices of these human girls had nothing to do with him?

No, it's not like that.

The witches of the Asura tribe serve the Asura tribe and serve the Asura king. In the final analysis, this heavy account must be borne by the Asura tribe.Since he is called "Your Highness" by the residents of Asura City, he should have such an awareness.

Even if he blindfolded and covered his ears, it is impossible to let time go back to the time when he "knew nothing".

Kartikeye's heart seemed to be held by something, and he felt a heavy feeling of falling.

"Wait until the day before the ceremony and let me know. Those candidate priestesses... can I meet them?"

The two priestesses looked at each other and made eye contact for a moment before the younger sister answered.

"Your Highness Kartikeye, there is no forbidden place for you in this city, and there are no invisible people, but... Judging from our shallow life experience, it is best for Your Highness not to meet any candidate witches before the ceremony begins."

"why?"

Kartikeye asked suspiciously.

The elder sister among the witches bent down with a smile, and knelt down in front of Kartikeye, so frightened that he immediately turned sideways to avoid it, and stretched out his hand to help her up after regaining consciousness.The witch stood up slowly, raised her head, and looked at the boy in front of her with a smile.

"Your Highness...you see...you are still so unaccustomed to facing us as current priestesses...then, what if those human girls knelt down and begged for protection from you? Your Highness, you should be very clear... There won't be any flukes in the process, and those who are not qualified will disappear, and at that time, if you have had contacts with those humans, can you really let go of this matter immediately?"

Kartikeye was at a loss for words.

If someone begged him for refuge, even if he rejected the maiden at last, would he be unmoved when he saw her again on the altar?

"Your Highness, you can't do it, right? In that case, you'd better wait until after the ceremony... to get to know the new priestess, that would be a good start—to get to know each other as an Asura prince and priestess, Rather than getting acquainted as gods and humans."

The witch persuaded her softly, and after saying these slightly presumptuous words, she took a few steps back and quietly returned to the altar.

Kartikeye thought for a while, thanked the two priestesses solemnly, and then walked out with a little heavy footsteps.

The gate of the palace was closed, isolating the praying maiden from the outside world.

Kali was led by a maid to visit Ashura City.

It was the first time in her life that she came to this mysterious castle, and she couldn't help admiring the scene of "water" flowing outside the castle while the castle was still sunny and sunny. Sometimes she saw the Asuras performing martial arts in the open space of the city. Will also stop, the heart is full of envy.

That's great, the members of the Asura clan can learn martial arts and practice fighting at will, but she can only keep this secret.

Asura City has always had very few "outside" guests, and there have been few girls born in the clan in the past hundred years. Therefore, when the little princess of the Gandapo clan walked by, all the Ashura clan looked over subconsciously, It's just that they all still remember to maintain the most basic etiquette, and they didn't run over abruptly to make friends with the princess when she was unaccompanied. a little shadow.

The Gandharva clan is completely different from the Asura clan, who are all warriors and advocate bravery. They are soft and beautiful. Even though the little princess of the Gandapo clan is still a girl, she has already revealed her future beauty. The naive Asura The clan youths stared intently, completely unaware of what the little princess was thinking about their martial arts.

— so rough, not at all like Carl, or herself.

After watching it for a while, Kali came to a conclusion, and stopped paying attention to these teenagers in her heart.

If you only have this kind of ability in your youth, it will be difficult to make rapid progress in the future.

This is the cruelty of the "talent" of the Protoss. Whether it is "talented" or "not talented", it will be manifested very early. The "strong" and "weak" have been distinguished from the beginning.

Different races, royal and non-royal...

Even among the royal families, there are differences in talents. Only the strongest one can become the king of the clan, especially those who live in Feicheng like Gandharva or Garuda.

If there is no master with enough power to suppress Feicheng, then Feicheng may fall to the ground. Even if the Garuda clan has been warriors for generations, the Gandapo clan will have to rely on the strong, just like her mother Attached to the Eastern General Chi Guotian, with the help of Chi Guotian's power to maintain the operation of Feicheng.

That is the reason why King Gandapo dared not leave Chiguotian even though he fell in love with the young Yaksha prince Yemo. It was not because of love, but for the sake of the clan.Although her mother's "love" disdains Kali, she agrees with her mother's sense of responsibility to the clan. Even if she wants to shoulder the burden of the clan in this way, it is also the way of life of "King Gandapo".

The future queen of the Gandharva tribe hugged her aegin, smiled and walked to the place where the Asura prince played the piano in the past, sat down and waited here, full of anticipation and joy in her heart.

She can choose a different way of life from the Gandharva kings of the past. It is great that she has inherited her father's strength. Otherwise, even as a musician, she would have no face to stand beside Karl.

Kali played the piano and waited for the prince of Asura City to come in the warm sunset.

"Carl, are you coming to the ensemble?"

Kartikeye was stunned for a moment, "I didn't bring the piano."

"Ah, that's okay, two people can play the same piano."

Jiali smiled and changed her sitting position, giving up the seat on Qin's right.

"My mother and I have played like this before. Do you want to try it, Karl?"

"……OK."

Kartikeye, who was in a slightly depressed mood, walked over and played the tune under Kali's guidance. After the music, the two played together for the first time and it had a very good effect.

After the song ended, Kali held her cheek and sighed.

"Does Karl have something on his mind? What's the matter? Is it... related to the ceremony in a few days?"

Kartikeye hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes. I...might kill some innocent people."

Kali blinked, and smiled instantly.

"My dear friend, how do you understand? It is a supreme honor to be able to die in the hands of the royal family of Asura, and even rebellious people will be proud of it."

Kartikeye sighed and whispered, "I really don't understand."

Kali shook her head with a smile and said no more.

She somewhat guessed the method of "selecting witches" of the Asura tribe, but, in her opinion, all humans who came to Asura City for the position of "witches" should have the consciousness of death.

She still couldn't understand Carl's "kindness".
