The Moonlight Great Witch pulled out a fully bloomed lotus the size of a baby's palm from her bosom. "I tried very hard to make this lotus bloom. It was only when I discovered a method that it bloomed, which required the blood of my dearest lover, and thus, the lotus bloomed."
A blank expression flitted across Ivita's face, witches were indeed peculiar creatures.
The fact that the lotus in the hands of the Moonlight Great Witch had bloomed must mean that her lover had died.
Was there any difference between what she had done and what her mentor, the Sea Spirit Witch had done?
The Moonlight Great Witch sighed. "It was only later that I discovered I had been tricked. They did not want to kill me straight away, but to torment me instead. They intentionally told me this lotus contains the secret to becoming a higher witch, leading me to devote all my thoughts to it."
"I poured all my energy into this lotus, until I was no longer myself."
