Chapter 433 – If She Were an Angel

“Bastard, don’t touch me!”

Snow sensed him shamelessly approaching to touch her and slapped his hand away, but because she couldn’t see, she accidentally tripped on the stone and fell to the ground.

“Sigh, what are you getting so worked up for, it’s not like I want to do anything to you.”

White night, Bob, had a smug smile and looked down coldly at Snow.

“I’m not heartless like Darkness, I was ordered to lay low in the church for numerous years and am just a normal person, I don’t have fun abusing children, so I won’t do anything cruel to you.”

“Hmph, do you think I’ll believe your bullshit?”

“Hehe, don’t be so angry, if it weren’t for the apostle rushing, I didn’t want to reveal my identity this early. Snow, you may be young, but you’re smart, so I trust you know what’s the right thing to do.”

“Cut the bull shit… what do you want?”

Snow knew that she wouldn’t be able to escape, so she just stayed sitting on the ground.

“Ah, as expected of the snow witch, as long as you hand over the black core, then I…”

“You won’t kill me?” Snow scoffed.

“No, I’ll give you a painless death, and send you off to the Goddess.”

“Haha, Bob, you sure are honest.”

Snow laughed out loud, but her expression was filled with helplessness and bitterness. She never expected the enlightened to be hidden so deeply, that Bob who served the Goddess for numerous years would turn out to be white night. Based on that, who knows how many more spies there are in the church.

It seems like the pope’s investigation orders were too late, which gave them the chance to develop! It was too late to regret it…

Now that Bob tricked the crucifix guards and her escort Elona, the little girl was at the end of the road. This was all because Snow thought she was so smart and set this trap, but in the end, she trapped herself.

“I don’t understand, White Night… no, I’ll still call you Bob.”

Snow sighed like she gave up and reached around inside her robes and pulled out a small strange black object, gently pinching it between her thumb and index finger.

“Now that it has come to this, you should at least tell me what this black core is, right?”

Snow toyed around with it in her hands like a kid.

“Hey, Bob, can you tell me? I just know that it’s a crystallization of some black magic and it seems active, I don’t know anything else.”

“As expected of the Snow witch, being able to find out that much is already impressive.”

“There’s something called the soul-devouring bug inside the black core, though it’s called a bug, it’s actually a magical life-form. After activating, the soul-devouring bug would find itself into a human’s body and would absorb their energy and devour their consciousness, eventually turning them into the living dead you saw before.”

After he said that, Bob paused then feigned surprise and exclaimed, “Oh sorry, I forgot you can’t see!”

“Tsk, boring.” Snow rubbed her eyes and continued asking, “But why are you using this to turn people into the living dead? Do you want to attack the deep and dark city?”

“Hehe, that I can’t tell you… Snow, I recommend you to hurry and hand it over.”

“What’s the rush! Hmph, since the black core is so strong, are you not afraid of me using it on you?” Snow raised the black core high up and it looked like she wanted to throw it at him and pelt him to death.

“My Saintess, stop trying to act tough, it’s not like you know how to activate it, furthermore, it’s a crystallization of black magic, your blessing wouldn’t work… I advise you to save your breath and hand it over.”

Bob finally lost his patience and was about to snatch it from Snow, but she unexpectedly pulled her arm back in and stuffed the black core back into her robes. Then she pulled some distance between them and stumbled up as she gently brushed the dirt off her clothes.

“Snow, what are you trying to pull? You’re a smart person, are you still going to futilely struggle? I don’t want to do anything cruel to a child… don’t force me!”

“Hehe, don’t misunderstand, since you told me so many secrets, I also have things I want to tell you.”

When Snow finally got some useful information, she suddenly started smiling mischievously.

“Bob, do you know why I’m called the Snow witch?”

“Because you have a nasty personality and are decisive at killing, the people that hated you secretly gave you that nickname to humiliate you… was that not the case?” Bob frowned and suddenly had a bad feeling.

“Heh, of course not, it’s not just because of my nasty personality…”

Snow shook her head and shook a finger in front of him, under the washed moonlight, you could vaguely see some dark purple threads twirling around her finger.

“To tell you the truth… not only do I know black magic, but I’m also actually an expert in it!”

Without any warning, there was a strange hissing sound. At the same time, Snow’s aura completely changed, she had no more holiness and her smile was filled with killing intent!

“What? Are those… dark spider webs? Damn!”

When Bob saw those dark purple spider webs, he immediately sensed the danger and reacted by jumping back and waving his arms, enveloping himself in a thick black mist.

“Hehe… want to run? It won’t be that easy!”

The little girl’s eerie laughs echoed all around them and made one’s hair stand up.

Snow couldn’t see, but the sensitive spider webs were her eyes! Thousands of spider webs whooshed through the air towards Bob.

“Damn Snow witch!”

Bob never would have expected that Snow would be hiding a trump card like this, even without a thousand heads, he never would have thought of the holy and cute Snow being a sinister and malevolent black magician!

Bob felt chills as he saw the numerous spider webs coming toward him, he had no time to think and had to completely focus on defense.

The mist acted up and isolated the thin spider webs on the outside, but there were too many, and in the end, he was still entangled by the dense webs.

Sensing the feedback from the threads, Snow knew she got him and extended an arm out and tightly squeezed!

“Dark spider webs ー death offering!”

All the spider webs started glowing an eerie purple and each individual strand began expanding. One could see how rapidly they were thickening and tightening. The strands tightly wound around Bob’s defenses and let out a chilling creaking sound as he was about to be crushed to death.

Should she leave him alive?

Snow wavered and the webs slowed down by half a second, and that half a second was an opportunity for Bob!

“Black magic ー Voodoo life claim!”

Even the thick spiderwebs couldn’t withstand the light ray and the purple ball became a red ball as the blood-red energy shot up towards the sky and opened up a large hole! Snow’s webs were burned off and swept away.

“Damn… I was too careless.”

Snow felt that energy, but it was too late.

The dark spiderwebs were broken through and Bob escaped. He was supported by the black mist as he floated higher to a safe distance before he wiped the blood from his mouth while roughly panting.

“Snow, y-you… you know black magic!?”

“Hmph, so what?”

“Aren’t you a Saintess? A Saintess should be a holy and immaculate existence! H-how could you learn black magic?”

“Hey, traitor to the church, someone who’s part of a cult has no right to criticize me.”

“T-that’s not the same! You practicing black magic is heresy! The Goddess’s most hated sinner! … How could someone like you get the prophecy to become a Saintess!?”

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

“N-no… the Goddess would never allow the existence of a heretic… Snow… no, Snow witch, who are you? Who are you!?”

Bob was panicking.

Why did Snow know black magic? Was she from the enlightened society as well? Or did she believe in the demon god Satan, or the ancient evil god, Cthulu?

So in the end, she was the real cultist!?

“Heretic? Hehe, no, I’m not a heretic… I’m an angel!”

Snow smiled and spread her arms, the numerous spiderwebs surged out and gathered next to her forming two large wings.

“An angel?… The legendary spokesperson for the Goddess… but Snow, an angel wouldn’t be a hideous monster like you!”

From high above, Bob could clearly see the chilling ‘spiderweb wings’ and couldn’t suppress his dismay.

“Monster? Hehe, how rude…”

Snow shook her head and curled her fingers, the blackish-purple ‘spiderweb wings’ slightly trembled and created gusts of wind, blowing her long white robes.

“I’m indeed not like a normal angel.”

One side was an eerie purple glow, the other was a holy while, the intense contrast made it seems like an evil god descended!

“I’m a Seraph!”
