Chapter 1163 – #277_Division (2)

#1157

One.
There is something that Hexennacht overlooked.

A greater number of Gehenna witches than expected did not give up their pro-human tendencies even after learning the truth about the world.

Of course, this ‘pro-human tendency’ cannot be considered unconditional love, and is closer to a bias to maintain the status quo.
As you know, Gehenna has a strong conservative tendency even if it is not orthodox.

It was effective that the order maintained by Duke Keter included moderately friendly relations with humans.

It was also clear that many witches were more hostile towards public figures than humans and harbored a sense of crisis over Hexennacht’s expansion.

“I’m already thinking about starting a war. Don’t they know too? “Anyway, humans can’t do anything about witches right now.”
“Then what are they aiming for while expanding their power and dividing Gehenna?”
“Of course it’s Gehenna. “With the three old witches joining in, the power gap has narrowed even further, so Gehenna, her biggest obstacle, will attack when she makes a fuss.”
“Those tight-lipped orthodox people don’t know this simple thing. “Who is our main enemy?”

Of course, this does not mean that Hexennacht’s propaganda was a completely ineffective attempt.

Even though it wasn’t a fatal wound from a single blow, it’s true that she was stabbed in a vital spot.

In fact, while Gehenna was divided into the reformist faction (humans are bad and dangerous, we need to change the Keter order) and the conservative faction (but isn’t their exploits worse?), Hexennacht’s movements became even sharper.

The ‘Witch of Time’ led the East Corps under my command and established a forward base in Alaska.

Although it is a very barren land with a small population and economic scale, it is a land of great military value and is originally a U.S. Territory.

This suggests that in the near future, their expansion of power will not be temporary, but will head towards the North American continent, the home of the first world.

The ‘Witch of Proverbs’ marched south from Omsk, Russia, together with the Southern Corps.

Without encountering any resistance, it penetrated Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan and established an outpost in China’s Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.

‘Homunculus? She stuck a knife to the throat of the Communist Party, who was refusing to cooperate or interact with her witch at all, holding on to the attitude of ‘how much death would that cost?’

‘The Witch of Verdant’ advanced to Romania, led by the West Corps.
In addition to threatening Eastern Europe, it is also attempting to take control of the Black Sea and Mediterranean Sea.

In fact, it feels ridiculous to give the name ‘corps’ to a force of several hundred to a thousand at most, but high-ranking witches are transcendental figures worthy of being called a one-man army.

The most destructive legion in history was sweeping across the world.

Since the situation has become so urgent, even the remaining witches of the conservative faction have no choice but to prepare countermeasures.

Wherever there are people, there is a group that serves as a central point, and in the case of Gehenna, it is an academic society.

The reason why the presidents, including Siwoo, are holding constant meetings and reviews is to rebuild the Witch Point branch, which had been disabled for a while, and gather troops to face Hexennacht’s large-scale advance.

Although he was unable to receive help from Gehenna’s greatest power, the Duke of Erelim and the Truth and Jinmyeong Academic Society, he succeeded in reorganizing his organization and forming a variety.

The person who will take on the position of Commander-in-Chief, which carries as much responsibility as courage, is determined.

Musin, a nickname given to him because no one can stand against him.
A long history of subjugating exploits in this world.
He is the right person whose sense of justice and duty no one will question.

“Thank you all for coming together. “I will understand the weight and responsibility and act carefully.”

This is Eloa Tiphareth, the pink Duke.

“Finally, let’s organize the formation of the guard once again.”

Basically, the invading army was Hexennacht, and the defending army was Gehenna, so the organization was organized in response to the expansion of Hexennacht.

The right-wing protection unit to fight the western army expanding towards Europe is organized around the Emerald Tablet.

The person in charge is Duke Tia Cagliostro, the ‘Witch of the Mysterious Tomb’.

“The dangers of humans are still unknown, but the dangers of public service are something even an apprentice witch knows. Oh hoho.”

As the dean of the castle and the leader of Gehenna’s largest school, she willingly declared her intention to participate in the war.
What are his qualifications? Isn’t he a person with many qualifications?

The left-wing defense unit to confront the eastern army advancing towards North America was organized by the cooperation society under Chesed and the librarians of Valentinus’ Secretariat.

The person in charge is Count Metis Gremory, the Chief Librarian and the ‘Witch of the Palace’.

“Originally, Secretary Valentinus has made it a point to express neutrality toward historical events. This is because we believed that the mission given to us was to continue research and records. However, confronting the injustice of Hexennacht, which clearly has an axis of evil, is also the responsibility of a scholar who pursues the correct magic. “Our librarians also decide to participate in the war here.”

The central defense force to fight against the enemy’s southern army was made up of regular members of the Chesed Society and exiles who had newly gained citizenship.
The person in charge may be a bit unexpected, but it is the ‘Witch of the Deep Sea’, Leruë Nukelabi.

“You will see Jim at the forefront leading the villains.”

Although her rank is high, she was recommended because she has already shown excellent criminal records several times.

Siwoo’s role in this organization was as a ‘support unit’ belonging to the central unit.

The scouting party has already secured the location point and is ready to go through the ‘door’ the moment it is deemed necessary to mobilize troops.

Siwoo is a joker who remains in Gehenna and is deployed to a place where he is being pushed back after observing the situation.

Of course, it is difficult to turn the tide of the witch war on one’s own, so it is made up of Linnaeus, Dorothy, Sharon, and about a dozen other powerful archwitches.

In fact, it can be seen as a key to Gehenna’s strategic flexibility.

“After Gehenna’s statement, Hexennacht’s expansion, which had been spreading rapidly, was initially blocked.”

When Gehenna revealed her true feelings to this extent, Hexennacht also hesitated.

According to the goddaughters’ report, even within Qliphoth, which was unprecedentedly united, the public opinion of ‘Isn’t this enough?’ Is secretly reflecting on her face.

Even though three powerful forces called old witches have joined Hexennacht, and the Gehenna side’s Truth and True Name Academic Society does not move at all, Gehenna is Gehenna.

‘Kill the fuck!!!’ And ‘Great Witch Empire!!!!’ Even though they were all in one accord, they were a burdensome opponent to confront in an all-out offensive.

A chilling tension is pulling the strings tight between the two camps.

“Excuse me, but I will leave for a moment.”

The long, long countermeasures meeting was nearing its end.
Siwoo received a call from Odile and Odette and moved to the Burinake Society annex.

2.
Even if what is decided is only vaguely decided, it is a very important position.
But at least to Siwoo, it was no more important than this news right now.

“What does that mean?”
“Assistant, Malika used magic.”
“That’s right! “It was very, very weak, but it was definitely telekinesis!”

When I first heard it, I thought there was some mistake or that it was a joke.

Mallika, who is lovely to look at, receives regular health checkups from Yebin.
Since she is the first baby born to a witch, we do not know what variables will arise.

But the stigma didn’t exist for Mallika until her checkup just three days ago.

Of course, she doesn’t have to be branded to be able to use magic.
When she was a slave, she vaporized several drops of Shiu’s magic power and she put it to good use.

But the most important thing is this part.

“No, rather… “How can I not learn magic?”
“That’s right!”
“You’re a genius! Genius!”

I wish I could just think at ease like the twins said, but magic is definitely a science.
Even though it is called the mysterious word ‘magic,’ it is clearly a study built on intellect.
Even prodigy pianists need to be taught how to press the keys before they can play.

“So… However, Miss Yebin also said that there was nothing wrong with her body… “I was wondering if she would be different if Siwoo saw it.”

Amelia carefully held Malika, her eyebrows knitted in concern.

“Bye…”

Rika, who couldn’t even hold her head properly, looks at Siwoo and bursts into laughter.
Amelia, who only had a worried expression on her face, smiled bitterly as if she couldn’t compete with her cuteness.

“Malika, are you so happy that her dad works outside every day? “Siwoo, come and hug me.”
“Yes yes.”

Amelia had encouraged her to speak informally in the past, but since she couldn’t stand her awkwardness, mutual respect was established again.
However, her title was compromised to Amelia instead of Amelia.

At that time, Siu also smiled like a happy father and opened her arms to hug Mallika.

“Mwaaa.”

A whirlpool formed around Malika.

It is a vortex of magical power that is difficult to observe with ordinary eyes, but whose texture is clearly visible to Si-woo.
Mallika was squirming, creating a thread of neutral magical energy around her, and was pulling Siwoo’s tie with his mind.

“Take it out…”

What can I say?
It was something invisible to magic.

Just like a bird flies in the sky without anyone teaching it.
Just like a fish cuts through the current without anyone teaching it.
It’s just understanding.

How do I move my magic and how does it work?
Moreover, Mallika’s eyes are bright and she moves along the swirls she draws.

It was evidence that the flow of magic power was visible like Siwoo’s left eye.

“Ah…”

Both Amelia and the twins were shocked by Siu’s lament.

“Well, is there something wrong?”
“Assistant, why are you so anxious…”

But Siwoo just came to understand.
This is why Count Yesod once devoted about 20% of the conversation to boasting about Diana every time he met Siu.

“My daughter… “What a genius!!!!”
“Mind?”
“She is the cutest daughter in the world and she can use magic without being taught.”

Mallika couldn’t help but laugh as she watched her father do somersaults while saying “Yay ho woo” Repeatedly, and her twins and Amelia also shared their bitter smiles.
