Chapter 522: The Encounter With the Moon Witch
Moon Witch.
In the distant past, she was once known as the Witch of Endings.
Bai Yan had witnessed the memories concerning the Ultimate Witch.
Back then, when the world was plagued by constant warfare, the future people of Noah and the indigenous “sinners” of Noah’s world fought relentlessly in an era of killing and destruction.
During these dark times, the Ultimate Witch took in people from all races and beliefs, creating an idyllic sanctuary—a peaceful utopia, away from the chaos of the world.
At that point, the Ultimate Witch was a powerful quasi-deity, even possessing the potential to become the next Rainbow. Her utopia, shielded by her immense power, lasted for hundreds of years. Over time, the people living there, generations blending together, eventually ceased to hate one another.
Had the Ultimate Witch truly succeeded in restoring peace to Noah’s world, uniting both groups of people, it could have been considered an accomplishment that would reshape civilization.
However, in the end, she failed to reach her divine potential.
Bai Yan now understood that her failure might be connected to the Rainbows. But the exact reasons for this were still unknown.
He suspected that the Rainbows had united against her ascension to godhood. Perhaps, when the opportunity arose, he could ask the Anomalous Star about it.
“But I might find out soon.”
After all, the Moon Witch herself carried the memories of the Ultimate Witch.
Well, he could just ask her directly.
Belan World
This is a world where humans and cat people coexist.
In ancient times, humans were mere pets to the cat people. The cat people were immensely powerful, with physical abilities that surpassed those of low-level super-beings. One cat person could easily overpower a hundred humans.
During that era, humans weren’t even slaves—they were pets. The cat people raised and bred them carefully, using a highly scientific process of domestication.
Everything began to change with the arrival of the Original People, a civilization still in its early stages.
The Original People swiftly defeated the Cat Dynasty and established a co-dominance between humans and cat people in Belan World. For many years, both races shared power. However, as time passed, humans, who had learned to master technology, became the dominant force, while the cat people were relegated to slavery.
But the cat people eventually gained control of technology and rebelled…
Over countless cycles of history, humans and cat people eventually discovered hybrid technology. This allowed them to break down the reproductive barriers that had once separated them.
Finally, after a lengthy process of fusion, humans and cat people became one unified race, ushering in a long period of peace. Now, half-human, half-cat beings coexist and jointly govern Belan World.
Today, their technology is extremely advanced. The entire surface of the world is covered in steel, and the once-pristine forests are long gone. Both humans and cat people have undergone extensive cybernetic enhancements.
In Stone Bridge City
Inside the mayor’s office, the middle-aged mayor, in his fifties, sat trembling in fear. His cat ears stood nervously, his breathing becoming heavier.
“Huff, huff… Why is it like this? Why?”
In his hand, he held a bloodstained knife, the blood still dripping.
Merete Chambers, the stunning enchantress, stood nearby, flipping through a black leather book. Her beauty was so intoxicating that it could mesmerize anyone.
She glanced at the young man lying unconscious on the floor.
“He is close to death. How do you want to choose now?”
With a smile, the enchantress looked at the mayor, who was filled with uncertainty.
“Did you kill him, or will you save him? This man worked for you for many years, helped you a lot, and even loved your daughter. But he betrayed you, deceived you, and may have ruined everything for you.”
The mayor’s hand trembled as he gripped the knife. He swallowed hard, speechless for a moment.
The unconscious young man was his subordinate, and someone his daughter had cared for. Initially, the mayor had held him in high regard. But now, he had learned the shocking truth—this young man was a spy sent by his political rivals.
The young man’s purpose had been to find and exploit the mayor’s weaknesses.
And worse still, he had even taken the mayor’s beloved daughter.
Unforgivable.
The mayor was consumed by rage. His gaze fixed on the fruit knife on the table, now an ominous symbol.
Should he save the man? No, he couldn’t possibly save him. His betrayal and deceit were too much to forgive.
But letting him die like this would break his daughter’s heart and implicate him in a scandal—unless he covered his tracks. The first step was to eliminate the woman, to silence her.
In that instant, the mayor made his decision.
With knife in hand, he moved swiftly towards the witch, his face twisted with fury.
But in the next moment, he stood in astonishment as he turned to ashes.
“Oh, what a pity! I’m not a fragile girl… It’s really too bad. You see, he had already confessed everything to your daughter yesterday. Then, he planned to join your side in defiance.”
Merete Chambers shook her head lightly, a smile on her lips as she turned and left the room.
She had promised not to harm the innocent, but occasionally, seeking out a few bad people to refine her sensibilities didn’t break that promise.
The witch.
People would speak of her with fear and anger.
But Merete Chambers actually had a commendable trait—she never broke her promises.
After being “collared” by someone, she chose to distance herself from Noah’s world. She found a way to leave Noah’s world by “overflowing in World, recording everything.”
“I wonder if I can hide here without him finding me…”
Merete Chambers had arrived in Belan World with a purpose in mind.
Based on the precise information provided by “Overflowing in the World, Recording Everything,” the Original People had left behind some method to become gods in this world.
Though she wasn’t sure of the exact method, she stayed for over a hundred years in search of it.
Despite the passage of time, Merete Chambers had yet to discover the Ultimate Ritual to ascend to godhood.
However, she had regained the strength of a middle-ranked Apocalypse.
She had grown stronger much faster than most extraordinary beings.
As the reincarnation of the Ultimate Witch, Merete Chambers had steadily regained her lost powers rather than starting from scratch.
“Calculating the time, it should have been a few months over there… I wonder how Bai Yan, Babel Tower, and the others are doing?”
Flipping through the Ruin-level Relic, “Overflowing in the World, Recording Everything,” Merete Chambers found great secrets of the multiverse, including those about Babel Tower.
Much of the information seemed more like riddles.
“What does ‘false Savior’ actually mean?”
She shook her head slightly.
Joining the Babel Tower seemed impossible now, so she chose to let go of the past. It had been over a hundred years already.
It was a shame. If she had succeeded in entering the Babel Tower, perhaps she would have grown stronger more quickly.
That Savior might even have a way to ascend to the divine throne.
As long as one became a true god, they could fulfill their past aspirations and break free from their tragic fate.
In her eyes, there flickered a flame—a mix of anger, determination, and deep despair.
Just then, a rare expression of astonishment appeared on Merete Chambers’ face.
“At such a time like this…”
