The Speedrun Manual of Miss Witch-Chapter 137 - The Beginning of Chaos (2/2)

Rip—

The flesh and clothes at the woman’s waist exploded. The magnificent palace in the raven’s eyes seemed to instantly turn into a sea of fire. The woman’s figure was dragged into darkness.

No... no no no...

The raven’s consistently cold and indifferent eyes finally showed slight fluctuations. Almost without any thought or hesitation, it directly swooped towards the woman, not even quite sure why it did so itself.

But it just felt that if it didn’t do this, it would regret it again.

This time is different. This time it is god. It can save everything...

The raven, enveloped in shadow, plunged directly into the darkness. But what awaited it wasn’t the terrifying dark mosaic from memory, but a black and blue-haired young woman with an indifferent expression, all fingers on her left hand severed, and a terrifying monstrous hand.

Almost the instant it saw the monstrous hand, the hand disappeared from its vision. Even before the gear could activate, it was already seized by the throat by the monstrous hand, rapidly dragged towards the blood-red vortex over there...

...

“Phew...”

Ciel slowly exhaled.

Good... no accidents.

Ciel looked at the still-rotating blood-red vortex.

The raven and Little Left have already gone in. Next, it’s her turn.

Ciel controlled the corpse to stand up again. The corpse, originally lying on the ground performing death, rushed directly towards the blood-red vortex, but passed through it as if clipping, hitting the wall.

Doesn’t work after all...

Perhaps because it lacks the characteristics a spiritual being or transcendent should have?

Or perhaps its inspiration hasn’t reached a certain level to enter?

Ciel didn’t conduct more experiments. These were irrelevant matters. More important things awaited her completion.

Her left hand continued bleeding, replenishing the blood-red vortex. She stepped across the blood array, extending her right hand towards the blood array.

A monstrous hand emerged from the blood-thread vortex, grasped Ciel’s wrist, and dragged her directly into the vortex.

Spiritual alarms sounded frequently in Ciel’s mind. A large amount of gray mist enveloped Ciel’s vision. Everything in the surrounding factory began to distort.

Within the mist, countless terrifying monstrous dark shadows stirred, approaching Ciel along with the continuously obscuring dense fog.

Without a single moment for Ciel to hesitate, she quickly rushed towards the raven, eroded by the Other Side, currently standing stunned in place.

“(Old Ansu) Impossible... I am god... impossible...”

It seemed to sense something approaching it in the mist, but before it could react, a hand already reached towards its pupil.

The moment the hand reached over, the raven felt bursts of intense heat erupting from its eyeball.

Large amounts of spirit, spiritual body, and knowledge were frantically stripped from its spiritual body, its body, leaving its originally distorted spiritual body riddled with holes.

Powers and knowledge not belonging to it were being frantically plundered. This spiritual body, which should have died long ago, was left with only a battered body and memories.

But it just watched the hand reaching towards it, without any struggle, just watching the hand reach towards its eyeball.

Then, its vision went black. The other eye also seemed destroyed, rapidly necrotizing along with the body.

The fear before its eyes had completely dissipated, leaving only residual memories scorching the heart like the fierce sun.

Simultaneously, changes began appearing before Ciel’s eyes too.

A silver gear floated above her fingertip, shining and revolving.

The gear seemed to accelerate the convergence of the mist. The surrounding mist, mixed with dark shadows, rolled towards Ciel.

Just then, the “Echo of the Silver-White Timebinder” in Ciel’s pocket flew out directly, colliding with the gear, blooming with dazzling silver light.

The silver light almost swallowed Ciel’s entire vision, also dispersing the surrounding mist. For a moment, the whispers in Ciel’s mind seemed to lessen considerably, replaced by a warm, familiar feeling.

The originally antique silver stopwatch began distorting and deforming with the addition of this gear. The originally simple appearance began showing complex carved imprints. At the center of the watch face, a gear was gradually forming, slowly revolving.

【Go!】

Amidst the expanse of silver-white light, a system screen appeared before her eyes, but vanished after just a flash, yet still allowing Ciel’s thoughts to start turning again.

Little Left!

The moment it sensed Ciel’s thought, Little Left leaped up directly, grabbed Ciel’s back collar, and flung her directly towards the gradually shrinking blood-thread vortex.

Thump—!

Ciel’s figure was thrown out of the blood-red vortex like a rag doll, tumbling rapidly several times on the ground before slamming heavily against the factory wall, making a huge noise.

This violent impact also caused Ciel’s figure to start flickering. The original black and blue hair rapidly lost its color, reoccupied by red, deactivating the transformation state.

Simultaneously, in the Ansu Church of the Savior Goddess, a Saintess with tightly shut eyes suddenly opened her eyes, filled with shock and disbelief.

She quickly stood up, leaped down from the holy platform, didn’t even have time to put on her shoes, and ran towards the Pope standing at the entrance talking with an Archbishop.

“Your Holiness! Something’s wrong...”

“A deity of one path has already retrieved part of the uniqueness... It’s not the Goddess!”

“Where? Which church?”

“Don’t know... The sensation is very vague, not even clear if it’s in this world...”

This scene played out not just in the Church of the Savior Goddess, but also among various different churches and secret cults.

Someone actually obtained uniqueness again after the Chaos Era... This was something no one achieved even during the thousand-year Holy War fought over resources in the Ancient Era.

Only a few at the highest level could know these things, but everyone understood clearly, the world was about to shatter again...

The originally dormant secret cults and churches would go mad searching for this truth...
