Chapter 148: What Was the Worst Luck

Chapter 148: What Was the Worst Luck

Throughout all these years, Dan Marina might have been the least popular Witch, but she still lived well. She never faced any malicious targeting, partly because the Sanctuary Church needed her abilities, and partly because Dan Marina’s power s were too troublesome—even other Witches didn’t want to provoke her willingly. The main reason was that she followed certain rules…

Now, upon seeing this young woman who was hailed as the most outstanding “Saintess” of the Sanctuary Church, Qin immediately thought of that awful woman breaking the rules!

If it were confirmed that woman truly broke the rules, even with her most troublesome abilities, she wouldn’t have an easy time afterward. The Witches didn’t want to confront the Sanctuary Church head-on, but they wouldn’t mind taking down a Witch who could expose all their identities. Yes, Dan Marina’s ability could do exactly that.

However, she had always followed some rules and never did such a thing, which was why she hadn’t encountered any major trouble so far. The Sanctuary Church hadn’t forced her to do it either. They all knew that if Dan Marina really did it, even if she managed to trap one or two Witches, she would become a thorn in the side of all Witches afterward.

At that point, even with her most troublesome abilities, she would find it hard to survive against a united group of Witches… So, even though her morals weren’t particularly high, she had never crossed certain boundaries.

“Young lady, this isn’t a suitable place for you,” Qin actively stood up and walked to the front of the young girl, speaking to her.

The young girl looked deeply at Qin. “I’m here to find someone.”

“Who?”

“A woman with golden hair and blue eyes,” the young girl thought for a moment and added, “She probably comes here often, and her demeanor seems somewhat careless and frivolous.”

“Although I don’t actively disclose information about guests here, if there’s a necessary reason, I won’t hide it either,” Qin said, looking at the young girl before her. “Of course, this only applies to people from the Sanctuary Church.”

“Mhm,” the young girl nodded. She wasn’t surprised by Qin’s words. The influence of the Sanctuary Church meant that whenever members with some status entered certain places, they received extra preferential treatment and goodwill. The Sanctuary Church had also strictly forbidden taking advantage of this convenience for personal gain without effort. In fact, every year, many grassroots members of the Sanctuary Church were disciplined for such actions!

As for mid-level or high-level members, they were less likely to violate this ban.

“…Was I overthinking?” Watching the young girl leave, Qin felt somewhat puzzled. The other party really came looking for Dan Marina, not for her. Although Qin had indeed worried about the possibility of her Alchemical Avatar being exposed when facing the young girl, the other party hadn’t noticed anything wrong with the Alchemical Avatar… Wait!

Could she have been deliberately brought here by Dan Marina to test this Alchemical Avatar?

Qin snorted coldly. Unknowingly, she had been tricked by that woman again. Even if this incident could be treated as a small joke—a harmless one—since that woman left without worry, she was clearly confident that this Alchemical Avatar wouldn’t have any issues. If there were problems, she would have made preparations before the young girl arrived.

As it turned out, she left without a care, and incidentally caused Qin a lot of annoyance!

She hoped the whole matter ended here. If that woman did anything extra afterward, Qin wouldn’t mind causing her some trouble either.

“Huh? Did you become interested in me, actually taking the initiative to find me?” In the quiet bar, Dan Marina smiled and looked at the arriving young girl, placing a drink on the table beside her.

“You forgot your thing,” the young girl carefully took off a small bag she carried with her and placed it in front of Dan Marina. Even with the bag covering it, the air around the bag was slightly distorted. Few who knew Dan Marina were willing to touch her things!

Even something she unintentionally left behind—who knew if she deliberately dropped it, waiting to trick whoever couldn’t resist picking it up? Therefore, after Dan Marina left the Sanctuary Church and this item belonging to her was discovered, the Sanctuary Church immediately prepared to send someone to “return it to its owner.” Even that unlucky Sanctuary Church member who had accidentally touched it earlier was now under strict surveillance.

This was to prevent the unlucky person from accidentally encountering some misfortune, dying young, or being dragged into some life-changing event… After all, members working at the Sanctuary Church headquarters were carefully selected. If they could be saved, they naturally should be saved. Of course, the person transporting this item couldn’t be ordinary either. The thing inside the bag itself emitted an ominous radiation. An ordinary person transporting it would probably encounter a series of disasters along the way.

If handled improperly, if this thing dropped somewhere, it could cause a large-scale disaster. As for keeping it at the Sanctuary Church? Such an object of misfortune should be gotten rid of wherever possible. Even if sealed tightly, accidents would still happen.

Coincidentally, the young girl was still at the Sanctuary Church headquarters at the time, and she had nothing urgent to do, so she was tasked with escorting this item…

“Ah? I wondered where the little thing I prepared suddenly went. So I forgot it at your place,” Dan Marina said with an expression as fake as could be, picking up the small bag. She paid no attention to the surroundings and poured out its contents. It was a black crystal, emitting faint threads of black gas. The black gas continuously intertwined and circled around the black crystal like silk threads. Seeing this thing, even the young girl became somewhat alert.

This thing was very sinister. Even she encountered some minor troubles while escorting it, slightly delaying the time it took to catch up with Dan Marina. These troubles were minor for her, but for others, they could be deadly. And this was under the premise that the black crystal was tightly isolated by the Magic enchanted on the bag!

Yet such a dangerous thing seemed exceptionally docile in Dan Marina’s hands. The intertwining black gas gently twirled around her fingers like an affectionate little animal.

“The purpose of this thing,” the young girl sat in front of Dan Marina, staring at her seriously. This thing was too dangerous. When escorting it over, the Sanctuary Church had demanded to find out what she intended to use it for.

“Haven’t I said it before? That Little Dragon is very special. My Tracing ability can’t reach him, and its effect is interfered with by the Witch around him. So, to find him, we can’t use normal methods…”

“Be specific!”

“What do you think is the worst luck that Little Dragon could face right now?” Dan Marina gently kneaded the black crystal, a strange, eerie smile curling at the corner of her mouth, like a witch…

“…Being found?”
