Chapter 1316: One Second
"Now, the time has come."
"Among us, only Flora can do that thing."
"Flora, you are the hope of all of us. You can save the world."
"Everyone, are you ready?"
"Sacrifice your life for Flora's sake!"
As they penetrated Great Crow's body and finally reached the heart, Flora's teacher began to execute the final step of their plan.
When they realized their imminent death, Flora's disciples didn't panic as she had imagined; it seemed they had already known about it.
Surprisingly, they were all just ordinary girls, just like her.
Witches are not monsters; they simply possess the natural talent to become witches. Among thousands of apprentice witches, they stand out and are recognized by superior witches as exceptional representatives.
Casting forbidden spells, one by one, the sacrificing witches left behind their last words for Flora.
"Flora, when the world is rebuilt, please engrave these words on my tombstone: Here lies a future Great Witch named Su!"
"To be honest, I never really thought about a grand future. I've successfully become a witch, so why not just wait for death? Sob... Flora, remember to bring my favorite bread when you visit my grave!"
"On my coffin, please carve beautiful lilies, Flora."
"Flora, it's a pity that we won't see you become a Great Witch. You are the best witch among us."
"Flora, did you know that all three of my former lovers changed their minds after seeing you? I hate you so much. Why don't I have your talent!"
"Goodbye, Flora. Everyone has a mission to fulfill, and I guess mine is now."
"To become a Great Witch? No doubt about it, Flora!"
Why didn't they notice?
None of them asked her to "save the world."
It's because they already knew that this world was beyond saving. Only a world of death can bring forth the Great Crow.
What they hoped for was a plan that must be completed, even if it meant sacrificing their own lives — it was the birth of a Great Witch.
The existence of the Great Witch is a long-standing legend for the Witch God's Domain.
Every Great Witch is like a goddess, idol, representing the highest fantasy of the Witch God's Domain in the minds of countless witches.
Even a Great Witch who has fallen into darkness still has countless followers.
In order for a Great Witch to be born, they make the choice to sacrifice their own lives, just like Flora's teacher.
Those last words are only meant for Flora, because she is special, a witch who surpasses them all, the only one with the hope of becoming a Great Witch.
Flora herself is unaware, she thinks she is unnoticed, but she has already caught the attention of countless people.
There are countless nobles and knights willing to sacrifice their lives for her, to protect her.
Even among the witches of the same sex, she shines the brightest like a star, her talent is exceptional, and her learning ability surpasses all other witches.
She is like the main character in a story, even without doing anything, she still shines brightly, and the witches who study under the same teacher are also infatuated with her.
The name Flora has already spread throughout the entire Witch God's Domain, considered to be the most likely genius to become the next Great Witch.
So, she doesn't have to do anything, the teacher does everything for her, protecting her from the wind and rain.
She never lacks the materials she needs for experiments, no matter how precious they are. Sometimes, she becomes interested in a food from a remote place called God's Domain, and the teacher and her disciples will do everything they can to buy that kind of food for her.
She thinks she is very ordinary, just a witch who focuses on studying. This doesn't exist.
Photos of her and the things she has used have long become popular goods in Witch God's Domain.
It is said that in order to compete for the clothes she no longer needs, Flora's disciples have even dueled with each other more than once.
It was truly a comedy full of yuri color (meaning a story involving romantic relationships between women).
When the final moment arrived, these witches who didn't look the part because they had once fought with Flora, each expressed their feelings to her.
"Flora, live freely."
"Flora, I like you the most!"
"Flora, take our share and shock the whole Witch God's Domain!"
At that time, Flora somewhat realized some strange things.
It seemed like everyone thought they could become a Great Witch?
By the time the last witch, who was the 800-year-old teacher Flora, began to perform forbidden spells, Flora still believed she could save the world.
In front of her, the intricate and mysterious unknown forbidden spells had reached the final stage.
As long as she had ten seconds, she would succeed!
"Flora, my disciple, I hope you won't hate me."
"My last words, kept in my tower... Flora..."
"Goodbye."
At that time, Flora saw the teacher's disappearing figure and felt very sad for the first time. But she still held onto hope that she could save the world, and finished reciting the final spell.
At the cost of all the witches' lives, Great Crow's heart was surrounded by a strange blood color, which was the life essence of everyone Flora knew.
"Seal!" Flora spoke the final secret code and challenged the unbeatable Great Crow.
In the void, the three Great Witches heard that voice, signaling the start of the final stage of their plan.
Countless black rays of light pierced through Great Crow's body.
Thousands of little puppets ran through Great Crow's blood vessels.
Ashen pages of a book glued to Great Crow's feathers one by one.
In just a moment, Great Crow's power had a blank period.
In a split second, Great Crow's heart burst open, shattered by the different powers of the three legendary Great Witches.
In just two seconds, the Great Crow's heart will regenerate, and the Great Crow cannot be killed because it doesn't have the concept of life or death. Even if three Great Witches join forces, they can't kill it.
So, everything happened within one second.
Flora absorbed all the magical life force that enveloped the Great Crow Heart.
The magic she used was not a sealing spell from the beginning, but a "fusion," a deceitful magic.
In that moment, Flora opened the "door" of dimensional magic.
She saw a world like never before.
Behind her, the black figure of a Disaster Bird appeared.
