Chapter 45 – Part 1
An enormous sense of responsibility seemed to be pressing on him.
Hilla slumped on the floor as his legs lost their strength. “Oh, my God.”
’I never thought I’d go through this miracle in my life.’
He grabbed hold of his consciousness, dazed by the delight he felt.
’Louisen de Ruyssen.’
Everyone was scattered now and most of the witches in the world didn’t know of Louisen’s name, but Hilla knew it very well. This was because he heard this name countless times just before he was separated from his family.
Louisen was the name his family loved and revered like a religion. His sisters even looked like fanatics of her.
[‘The true witch is Lord Louisen! It would be nice if I could even look at her toenails.’ ]
He didn’t know just how many times he had heard that. It was as if it was stamped on his ears.
They had even dyed their hair black like Louisen.
Louisen wasn’t the only witch with black hair.
The Deme family wasn’t mixed with Louisen’s blood, nor did they inherit from the great family. They were just one of those first witches who inherited power from Louisen.
When Louisen awakened her power a long time ago for the first time in this world, she didn’t monopolize all the power for herself. She shared her powers in exchange for nothing with some of the people she cared for like family, along with a token she made herself.
There were three who first received this token: Moira, Petscha, Vahon—the three great families who received power from the first witch, Louisen. And the next that received the power was Deme, Hilla’s family. It was said that the first Deme was connected to Louisen in some way and had stayed with her, and so they received power with the name Deme.
There was a theory that the three great families who first inherited Louisen’s power were very opposed to the inclusion of Deme because of their uncertain origins.
Louisen was very special to the Demes. For them, their witch was Louisen, and they followed her to this day as they believed that she had caused the beginning of Deme.
“I never thought of that.”
Although Louisen was the first witch, she was also the first witch to disappear from the world. It was considered that Louisen’s bloodline had been cut off since then—meaning the loss of the original bloodline of witches.
Ordinary witches and Louisen, who mastered and refined her skill, made it their own and passed it to future generations, but it was also different from the beginning. Unlike other witches, who could only learn one or two abilities, she could craft or learn multiple abilities if her body held up. That was the power of the founder, and that was why she was called the Great Witch.
Hilla stroked the scribbles again and again with his hands. “My older sisters would have loved it had they known about this.”
If only they had known that Louisen’s bloodline, whom they had been following so consistently, was alive.
Just then, Hilla’s eyes turned red. “But there’s something strange about it.” He tilted his head.
The only people who recognized these patterns were Demes, who were her fans. Because of that, he learned that Mariette, who drew Louisen’s pattern, was of Louisen’s bloodline….
Did she really not know her own bloodline?
’She calls for the Guardian, exceptionally clever, and carries such a striking token. Perhaps…’
He became sober at once. “Oh, is that so?”
’Were you testing me?’
No wonder from the beginning, the lady had an unusual side. She may have been testing in finding someone who could take care of her precious bloodline. At the same time, that time when he threatened and screamed at Mariette popped up in his mind. His regrets were like a flashing tide, and they hit Hilla hard.
“Why did you do that? Why did you do that, me from the past?”
Hilla tugged on his hair, but he couldn’t undo what he had done.
’I will treat her better starting tomorrow. I’m going to be really nice to her starting tomorrow. Then I will tell you the truth I learned now. That’s how a man who doesn’t disgrace the name of Deme is supposed to be.’
Hilla rubbed his chin as he quietly organized his thoughts. “Wait.” His pupils constricted for a moment.
How did the lord, who was even recommended by the Pope to become the master of the Holy Sword… become the Lady’s father?
’If Lady Yurie was a witch, then her magical power and the Lord’s holy power would have reacted.’
Hilla shook his head in contemplation. This was not the priority.
‘If Lady is Louisen’s descendant, then the first thing I should do is to separate her from the prince.’
Their safety was more important than anything else. Hilla suddenly felt complicated at the thought of the two who became each other’s first friends.
