841. Mammon Paradise(1/2)
"Good guys, are you two, mother and daughter, just playing the game of Infernal Affairs?"
Looking at Alice and her daughter who were confused not far away, Dorothy blinked, then looked at her stepmother beside her who was also frowning, and then asked.
Anne also frowned at this time. It was obvious that she did not know the identity of the "ex-wife" judge until this moment, and it was indeed well hidden.
But now is not the time to dwell on this. Besides, everything in the past has passed. The two have broken up long ago. The relationship between her and Hattie was just a young and ignorant impulse. Now Adam is her true love, so this
The identity of the "ex-wife" naturally has nothing to do with her.
"The Werewolf Witch is the Demon King's most loyal minion. It's not surprising that Hattie will be the judge."
The stepmother said calmly.
Dorothy nodded when she heard this. She had the same idea.
She learned the secret behind the werewolf witch's overthrow of the vampire witch from the previous opera "Lies and Trickery". The reason why the werewolf witch was born and gained power was entirely because of the two happy people, the Demon King and the Sage of Lies.
In that bet, it was the True Ancestor Blood Diamond stolen by Miss Phantom Thief that gave the werewolf witch ancestor the power to resist the vampire witch.
Well, the classic friend and foe have the same origin.
However, the truth she later learned from Hermes was another version. The Sage of Lies and the Demon King did not get the real Ancestor Blood Diamond back then. The one who gained power in the story
The ancestor of the Lucky Werewolf may also be the trustee of their Phantom Thieves.
This leaves people wondering which version to believe.
But no matter what, the ancestor of the werewolf has a close relationship with the Demon King, and the werewolf witch clan has always been a die-hard Demon King faction.
Werewolf? No, he's the devil's lackey.
"But, Annie, she seems to be much stronger than you. How did you become your rival back then?"
Dorothy felt the overwhelming magical pressure on Mrs. Hattie and couldn't help but asked curiously.
Well, Miss Fairy Wang's bad mouth is still stable.
In her perception, the power of Alice's paternal mother is not inferior to that of Archduke Vandro just now. This is definitely the top level.
Back then, Mrs. Hattie and her stepmother were called the Blood Moon Twins, which meant that they were at least evenly matched back then, but now...
Well, the magic power of Hati is about 80w Mana, while the magic power of Anne is barely 60w.
Even though it seems that the difference is only 20w Mana, according to the principle of magic aggregation, the gap between the two is actually several times higher.
An upper peak and a lower peak are completely different.
And Alice is only thirteen years old now, which means that it has been almost thirteen years since the two broke up. To the witch, thirteen years is just a blink of an eye. How can such a big gap open up?
"Tsk, we'll find out when you give birth to a child and voluntarily bear double the magic power loss."
Feeling that she was being despised by her stepdaughter, the stepmother rolled her eyes and was too lazy to pay attention to this guy's gossip.
"No, no, I can't give birth to a child or anything like that. This will never be possible."
Dorothy, who was shocked, quickly shook her head.
Are you kidding me? The reason why she rejected Dragon Mother's proposed marriage to Sophilia before was because she was afraid that she was too weak and would be suppressed by the pure white witch and become the matrilineal party.
It's impossible to be down there, not even in this life.
But double the magic power loss?
Even Dorothy, who should have only seen strength and weakness in her Goblin King state, was stunned at this moment.
She knew that reproduction among witches required a huge price. Giving birth to a witch cub required a huge amount of magic power, and this huge consumption of magic power required two mothers to bear it.
And it's not just a normal consumption like casting a spell. The magic power absorbed by the witch cub is irrecoverable, which means you will lose that part of the magic power forever, that is, the upper limit of the blue bar is sucked.
This is obviously a huge price for a witch whose magic is the foundation of everything.
Therefore, generally speaking, this consumption is shared equally between husband and wife.
However, this does not necessarily have to be shared equally, it is just that the loss to both people is relatively small. In some special families, the cost of this kind of childbirth will be borne by only one person.
That is to say, one spouse alone pays for all the costs of raising the cubs.
And this is really harmful to the body. Maybe a peak will drop down the level immediately after giving birth.
Of course, this refers to the magic power drop. After all, the peak certificate is a lifetime test and cannot be withdrawn casually.
Putting it this way, the huge gap between Anne and Mrs. Harty is understandable.
It's just that this kind of behavior of letting your partner bear the losses alone is a bit too irresponsible to be honest...
Well, in the witch world, people like this are generally called scumbags.
Ah, doesn't it mean that most werewolf witches are extremely loyal to their families and partners? It seems that the rumors of the magic network are not credible either.
Dorothy thought so in her heart.
"Don't think too much. This is what I asked for. Hati didn't agree to it at first, but she couldn't beat me at that time and couldn't resist me. After we broke up, she felt that I had to bear the cost alone and hurt her.
I’m proud of myself.”
Although the two had said goodbye, Anne still defended her "ex-wife".
At that time, she didn't know what was going on. Anyway, she wanted to have a child for no reason, so she followed the devil. In the end, regardless of Hati's objection, she forcibly knocked her unconscious, then held a ceremony, and successfully conceived Aili.
Silk.
Thinking about it now, she was indeed too domineering and strong at that time, and she really felt sorry for Hati. The final breakup between the two was really her fault.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, if she is given another chance, she will definitely make the same choice. After all, Alice is what she wants, not what Hatty wants.
Then she should naturally pay the price.
The witch's rising period is very precious. At their age, they should be working hard to become stronger. They wish they could train every second as an hour. Giving birth to a child at this time is simply self-destructive.
Although both of them are genius witches, this delay may end up disappearing from the public.
In Anne's opinion, since it was her own willfulness, she should be responsible for it. This is the best outcome. It is better for her to become a useless person than for two people to become mediocre people together.
In response, Dorothy looked at her stepmother speechlessly.
She could somewhat understand Mrs. Hattie's anger afterwards, especially when she was in the state of the Fairy King, she felt it even more deeply.
Although she could understand that Anne was doing this for the other's good, once she was in Mrs. Harty's shoes, it was really hurtful.
This is completely because they don't regard the two of them as real family members, and they still have such a clear distinction. In the final analysis, this is just a constant distrust of each other, which is really a bit superficial.
"Annie, you are treating others as tools. This is not love at all."
She complained speechlessly.
But Anne did not refute this, but nodded seriously in agreement.
"Well, it's not true. Thinking about it now, the feeling when I was with Hattie back then and when I'm with Adam now are completely different, so I think it was because I was ignorant when I was young."
The stepmother showed her memories.
When she was with Hati, she felt more of a resonance of blood, a call between the flesh, but after she met Adam, the call from heart to heart made her understand what it meant.
true love.
Dorothy on the side was thinking about her birth again.
Speaking of which, Adam was just a weak human being and couldn't afford the loss of magic power to give birth to the witch, so the magic power to give birth to her was borne by Dragon Mother alone.
And judging from the fact that Annie dropped a level in order to give birth to Alice, the price Mother Dragon paid for giving birth to her would probably be even greater.
But her mother had never mentioned this in front of her. If she hadn't complained about it to Annie now, Dorothy wouldn't even be aware of this problem.
Thinking of this, the Dragon Witch suddenly felt a little ashamed. She seemed to owe her mother more and more.
Alas, as expected, once things here are settled, it's time to take the time to go home and take a look.
She thought so in her heart.
While the two were chatting, the judges had already taken care of the matters in the banquet hall. At this time, more than 40 grand judges had arrived in front of her, waiting for her instructions.
Dorothy could only shake her head when she saw this, hiding the shame in her heart, and then adjusted her mood.
She glanced at the Hundred Ghosts in the banquet hall, and then the shadow under her feet suddenly expanded, including all the Hundred Ghosts.
"Three of you, please lead the way."
After finishing everything, she looked at her stepmother and three sisters and said this.
Camilla, the cold sister, didn't say anything and just led the way. However, Elizabeth, the gentle sister, smiled at the cheap niece.
"We are just obeying Mother's orders, but the Hall of Holy Blood is the holy place of the vampires after all. Please try not to damage it too much later."
As vampire witches, the two of them were actually unwilling to take this group of outsiders who were obviously out to cause trouble to the Holy Land. However, since it was their mother's order, the two had no choice but to obey. They could only hope in their hearts that the temple that had been passed down for more than 100,000 years
The ancient holy land can continue to exist after this incident.
It should work.
When I think of the many seniors and the Eleventh Duke sleeping in the Hall of Holy Blood, I then look at these ferocious judges around me.
Alas, that holy land is about to become a battlefield, and will probably become history from now on.
Elizabeth thought with some sadness in her heart.
