Chapter 21: Thorns, Princess, and Witch: Is it not okay to touch them? ...



Gladys could sense that Laura definitely didn't touch her wings accidentally, he did it on purpose.

Lola's cold hand gently touched Gladys' wings, and Gladys's shoulders trembled.

"My slave, be quiet and don't move! Let go!" Gladys scolded Laura fiercely.

Laura raised her eyelashes and looked at Gladys.

He pursed his lips, his golden eyes calm and innocent.

Gladys: “…”

Gladys continued viciously: "If you touch me again, I will throw you down and smash you into a pulp."

Laura blinked.

He didn't let go.

Laura's fingertips slid across the wings, and the feather bones connecting the wings were not under Gladys' control and flapped the wings excitedly.

A tingling sensation ran down Gladys's spine...

It feels very strange...

Gladys fell into deep thought while controlling her wings to prevent them from crashing into the cliff face due to their overexcitement.

Why does the usually reserved little princess keep touching her wings?

Gladys thought that Laura must be jealous of her having a pair of wings.

Just like a child trying to grab his friend’s new toy!

That's why he kept touching her wings!

Laura is jealous to death!

As an evil witch, how could Gladys waste such a good opportunity?

After figuring it out, Gladys began to show off to Laura: "The wings are mine, you just don't have wings, just admit it."

"Is it not okay to touch it?" Laura asked slowly.

After Laura finished speaking, Gladys and Laura looked at each other.

Then, Gladys threw herself into despair: "If you dare, rub me bald! If you rub me bald, you won't have wings! The wings are mine, mine!"

But Laura let go in disappointment.

Gladys suddenly felt that little Princess Laura was very difficult to deal with.

Gladys thought, if she doesn’t want to touch it, then don’t touch it. Does the evil witch really want the little princess to touch her wings?

However...after Laura's hand left, Gladys' wings suddenly lost their strength.

Gladys's face turned pale. She gritted her teeth and continued flying with Laura in her arms...

But the power of wings that are not touched is limited...

The cliff was too high, and Lola was too heavy. It was like an 800-meter race. Gladys couldn't hold on for the last lap. She struggled for a moment, her face almost twisted together, and whispered, "Lola, you...you try to touch my wings again?"

Laura smiled and said, "Okay."

Laura raised her hand and touched Gladys' wings.

Gladys's eyelashes trembled.

Her wings were like little animals longing to be stroked.

After being touched by Laura, Gladys' wings suddenly became powerful and extremely excited. She flapped the air heavily and rushed upward at an accelerated speed.

When Gladys brought Laura to the cliff, her legs felt a little weak.

She pushed Laura away and took a moment to calm herself down.

Gladys: “…”

The remaining numbness in Gladys's eyes disappeared, and she touched the wings with her hands as if she were doing an experiment, trying every angle and various methods.

No feeling...

The wings are not exciting at all...

Gladys's expression changed slightly, and she felt jealous in her heart. As expected...Princess Laura's halo as the heroine is too strong, even her wings like Laura.

Gladys attributed the excitement of the wings to Laura's aura that attracted all life. She didn't know that Laura was actually infusing His divine power into her wings to replenish her energy.

The Light Elf has a strong purification ability. With just a little bit of divine power, the Light Elf can purify and utilize it.

However, during purification, the divine power flows through the magic circuits of the wings, and the resulting reaction will be very strange.

"Mrs. Witch, are you okay? Do you need some rest?" Laura asked in a pleasant voice.

Laura approached Gladys.

He was a little worried that she wouldn't be able to withstand God's power.

Gladys's folded wings suddenly unfolded unconsciously, and the tip of her wing feathers quietly probed, wanting to touch Laura...

Gladys immediately raised her hands to press down her wings, and said, "I'm fine. I, the evil witch, am different from the delicate princess. I don't need to rest."

Gladys struggled to hold down her wings that were about to move.

"My slave, stop pretending to care about me. Let's go quickly."

Gradys took the little Princess Laura and went forward to explore.

The space above the cliff was very empty and the scene was strange... The ground was extremely smooth, without any plants, and the entire earth was like a polished flat boulder.

Everything was dead silent and the sky was dark.

Gladys and Laura walked in this dead silent place for a while. The surrounding scene was too gloomy. At a certain moment, Gladys felt as if she and Laura were the only ones in this world.

A sense of trepidation crept up her spine, and Gladys's expression turned a bit grim...

Laura looked at her thoughtfully.

After a moment, Gladys's eyes lit up and she grabbed Laura's arm, "Look! There are two people in front!"

Gladys dragged Laura over and ran over, only to find that the people in front of her were not people, but two ghosts.

Why did Gladys think they were two ghosts? Because one of the women had an axe stuck in her head and the other had a sword stuck in her chest, and both looked like they had died tragically.

The two women's bodies were transparent, emitting blue light, and their feet were floating.

Behind them was a gate surrounded by thorns, and on both sides of the thorn gate were stone walls that stretched as far as the eye could see.

So...what's the world like behind the wall?

Gladys began to carefully consider whether to go over and take a look.

However, when she blinked, Laura suddenly disappeared.

Gladys: “…???”

Where are the people?

Princess Laura, who was as old as her, disappeared from under her nose again?

Just as Gladys began to wonder if Laura had deliberately escaped, she suddenly felt a gaze on her.

Gladys looked up and saw that Laura was standing on the other side of the wall behind the thorn gate.

The little princess was wearing a wizard's robe, with long black hair hanging down to her waist, golden pupils, pale skin, and she quietly met Gladys's gaze.

Gladys suddenly felt like the witch who was going to rescue the little princess from the Castle of Thorns.

But to be honest... the scene behind the thorn gate looks dark and a bit scary.

Gladys quickly calculated in her mind that she had come to this damn place just to rescue Laura. If she was afraid to leave now, she would give up halfway and lose everything.

Gladys goes after Laura.

Unexpectedly, the two ghosts outside the door stopped Gladys and said, "Wait, who are you? Outsiders are not allowed to enter the holy land."

What's going on? Laura walked in so brazenly, and you didn't stop her? Can't you see Laura?

Gladys looked at Lola, who was standing behind Apia, and her expression changed. "But someone has already entered. Can you explain?"

The two ghosts immediately said, "There is no one here, not even a ghost. Oh! Except for us two ghost sisters."

"Don't try to play tricks. Even if a birdman flies over in the sky, we won't turn our heads."

Gladys: “…”

She discovered that these two ghosts really couldn't see Laura.

There is actually a similar plot in the original book... Once, little Princess Lola got lost and accidentally entered the ghost's castle. The evil ghost could not touch her, or even see her, because the little princess' heart was so pure and kind, and she was not a creature from the same world as the ghosts.

However, little Princess Laura was very hardworking. When she was alone in the ghost castle waiting for her fiancé, the prince, to find her, she did not rest. She swept the cobwebs in the ghost castle and tidied it up in order. This attracted the attention of a handsome ghost duke who lived in the castle.

Because of true love, the Ghost Duke finally saw Princess Laura... and successfully entered Princess Laura's fish pond.

The ghost can't see Laura.

The evil witch Gladys was not so lucky.

Blocked by two ghosts, Gladys once again felt the world's unfair treatment of the European emperors and the Africans.

The two ghosts looked at Gladys and started chatting.

The ghost with the axe on his head said: "Hey, it suddenly occurred to me why there are outsiders here? Logically speaking, this is a place that cannot be entered..."

The ghost with the sword stuck in his chest said: "I have been guarding for hundreds of years, and this is the first time I have seen someone from the outside world."

"She has red hair, like fire."

"Her eyes are very lively. They remind me of the black cat that my queen mother strangled to death."

"Her skin looks so tender, soft and white. It must be delicious."

"She also has a pair of white wings..."

At this point, they paused, staring intently at Gladys's wings. They asked in unison, their eyes filled with alarm, "Why do you have white wings? Are you an elf?"

In this alien world, elves are extremely pure and sacred beings. They bring luck to people, so normal people will be very happy to see elves, thinking that they are protected by the God of All Things. How can they be vigilant?

Gladys thought for a moment and then asked, "Is the holy land behind you particularly evil?"

"Yes, this is the sanctuary of dark creatures, not a place where a white-feathered creature like you can enter." The two ghosts showed murderous intent.

"If you trespass, we will kill you, pluck off your wings, and present them to that lord."

This tone...

This line...

It turned out to be the den of evildoers...

That's just perfect!

Gladys's eyes lit up and she spoke without hesitation, "No, I'm not an elf, I'm an evil witch. I've come to the Holy Land to seek the protection of that lord."

"Wicked witch?"

The two ghosts looked at Gladys's clothes and witch hat and hesitated. "But how do you have such white wings?"

Gladys immediately took out her evil black wand.

The wand in Gladys's hand was extremely evil, exuding an ominous aura that made the two ghosts feel extremely oppressed.

The two ghosts made a dizzy and fell to the ground together...

They looked pitiful and asked, "Oh my God, what do you want to do? Kill us?"

"I want to prove that I am an evil witch." Gladys tilted her head.

"Okay, evil witch, quickly, quickly put it away." The ghosts continued in unison.

After Gladys took out her magic wand, the two ghosts had already believed it for the most part, but... they looked at Gladys's snow-white wings.

This doesn't seem like something a wicked witch would have.

"But what happened to your wings?

Gladys said confidently, "This is a trick I created with my magic wand to confuse kind people. I want them to mistakenly think I'm a spirit and do whatever I say. I'll trick them into following my lead. This way, I can trick them into coming to my tower."

"The tower is my territory. Once you enter the tower, there will be no return for you, the evil witch, who will torture and abuse kind people day and night."

After hearing Gladys' explanation of the wings, the two ghosts were immediately impressed. Oh my god, it turned out to be a high-end operation.

Then, the two ghosts looked at each other and said, "We suddenly have an idea. Wicked witch with strange white feather wings passing by, please help us judge the winner. If your judgment is fair and reasonable, then we will let you in."

Gladys blinked. "Oh? So what are you guys competing for?"

"We are competing to see who is more beautiful and who is more suitable to serve the Lord of Darkness."

"We've been watching each other compete since yesterday. We've been competing all night, but there's still no result. It's very frustrating."
