Chapter 102: Meeting

“Dan Marina sister, can I leave here first?” Petty said somewhat hesitantly. On the way to Kaja with Dan Marina, she had experienced many things and grown a lot, but some aspects of her character were not so easy to change.

“No one will come to bother you.” Dan Marina gave a light laugh. “An old friend’s shop has opened. We should come show our support.”

Her smile was also a bit peculiar as she looked at a green figure on a stage. It was a young girl with long green hair. The girl was pouring out her beautiful singing on the stage, but after noticing Dan Marina’s gaze, her singing paused for an almost imperceptible moment before returning to normal.

After finishing a song, Qin walked off the stage, holding a glass of wine, and came directly to Dan Marina. “This body is quite good. Can you let me meet the Creator?”

Dan Marina looked at the Qin in front of her and asked with a smile. This body had actually perfectly concealed that part of Qin’s uncontrollable ability. If it were just excellent materials temporarily resisting it, it wouldn’t be so strange. The key was that this Alchemical Body had been maintained for over half a month now. Even with very good materials, under the pollution of the Witch’s Power, there should already be some problems. Yet this body remained like this so far, without any changes.

Did materials that could conceal Witch Power truly exist? If they did, then the Sanctuary Church wouldn’t be able to detect a Witch’s power so easily. A Witch herself was a kind of radiating source. Ordinary people couldn’t sense it, but through certain methods aimed at Witches, the source of this power could be captured.

“If you want to meet, go find them yourself.” Qin glanced at Dan Marina. The woman in front of her was among the cleverest even among Witches. Before, she could still hide some things, but after so much time had passed now, she had probably already connected something through this Alchemical Body.

An existence that could ignore the influence of Witch Power… She came to Kaja, and then such an Alchemical Body also appeared in Kaja. How could that be a true coincidence?

Dan Marina’s ability, even if interfered with or affected, preventing normal use, she still had her own constant advantage: acting on intuition. Others might end up harming themselves by doing this, but Dan Marina would not. When she wanted to do something, even without any clues, relying on her intuition for a passive choice, she could always pick the option closest to her needs or the correct one.

“The problem is… I can’t find them.” Dan Marina smiled subtly and gently patted Petty’s shoulder. “Let me introduce you. She is the Contractor of the existence I want to find.”

“Are you still planning to trouble a young girl?” Qin glanced at Petty calmly. A very ordinary Human girl. Even though she was almost Reaching the Tier, in the eyes of a Witch, she was just that. In her long life, she had seen countless girls like Petty.

Besides, what did being a Contractor matter? Even if Petty was Zheng Yichen’s Contractor, the fact that Dan Marina was still sitting here now, and not on her way to find Zheng Yichen, showed that this Contractor’s status held no special significance. However… Since Dan Marina brought her here, there must be a reason.

Qin saw confusion in Petty’s eyes. This confusion seemed like… seeing something familiar. Had she come into contact with an Alchemical Body similar to her current one before?

She glanced at Dan Marina. Sure enough, this woman now wore a smile like a fox that stole a chicken. Hmph!

“Ah~ Finally finished.” Zheng Yichen looked at the Alchemical Puppet in front of him and vigorously rubbed his hands together. To speed up the progress, he had done almost nothing else during this time, all to accelerate the completion. By focusing solely on this one task, Zheng Yichen had forcefully compressed the original one-month schedule to just over twenty days… well, it was only a few days earlier after all.

The difficulty of processing those materials exceeded Zheng Yichen’s expectations. Just handling the materials took Zheng Yichen the majority of the time. Now the thing was done. The next thing to do was to pack it. Arriving in Kaja, Zheng Yichen muttered to himself as he walked toward the Tavern. Having not come for almost a month, Zheng Yichen heard many new comments on the way, mostly related to recent changes here.

A Bar appeared in Kaja… and it was extremely popular and well-liked!

“So it has already started, huh?” Scratching his head, Zheng Yichen continued carrying the packed crate. However, when he arrived at the Tavern, Lika said Qin was not there.

“Would you like to wait for a while?” Lika said somewhat hesitantly. If it were something else, she could directly handle it on behalf of her Boss. However, Qin had specifically instructed about this thing. It must be handed to her personally by Zheng Yichen. She did not have the authority to handle this matter, so she could only ask Zheng Yichen to wait here.

“Hmm, where is your Boss? I’ll go find her.”

“…At the Bar.” Lika hesitated for a moment before saying. It should be fine if Zheng Yichen went to find her Boss.

“Then I’ll go find her.” After getting the location of the Bar from Lika, Zheng Yichen straightforwardly headed there. The Bar’s location was very conspicuous. Zheng Yichen saw it as soon as he reached that street. With a somewhat nostalgic feeling, Zheng Yichen carried the crate inside. The Alchemical Puppet inside could be said to be priceless. Before handing it over to its owner, he would not let go of it easily.

What if someone just took it?

As for not being allowed in a Bar… Nobody said you couldn’t enter carrying a crate. Even if you had no money, wasn’t it okay just to go in and look?

However, after arriving here, Zheng Yichen discovered a problem… Qin was still using the Alchemical Body with the ‘Miku’ appearance, so she was very conspicuous in the Bar. After all, those two knee-length twin-tails were the most obvious feature. Once inside the Bar, he immediately saw the person in question. But the people sitting next to that person made Zheng Yichen quite surprised!

Petty! Not just her, but the woman next to her was someone Zheng Yichen had seen many times through the Surveillance Stone. Even at the Sanctuary Church, the woman who took Petty away was her. Now he encountered them in such a place. This really was a coincidence.

“Sigh~” When Zheng Yichen saw Qin, Qin also saw Zheng Yichen. She couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh. When she looked at Dan Marina again, Dan Marina’s face still wore a smile, unchanged, but Qin could still see how… good her current mood was.

When her mood was good, Qin’s mood became bad!

Indeed, the Witch in front of her was still as detestable as ever. No matter what she did, even if others guarded against it tightly, the development of events always ended up on her side. Even her own people were the same. It was as if all the factors beneficial to herself and all the good luck had been snatched away by her. How could such a Witch be liked!?
