This year's witch gathering was held on the Lake Island, which is the territory of the Lake Witch Gloria. She is an older witch who lives alone and has a common characteristic among lake witches: she likes to build her house by the lake.
Fresne rode a white unicorn, walking on the lake, creating ripples.
The guiding purple ribbon turned into a purple iris flower and fell into her hand after she arrived, and the unicorn turned into a bunch of emerald green branches. Fresse casually tapped on these green branches, making them bloom beautiful flowers.
She handed the bouquet of flowers to Gloria, the lake witch who came to greet her.
"Welcome, Floris." Gloria, who looked old, took the flowers from her and led her into the house.
The interior of the house, which looks ordinary from the outside, seems to be another world. Ordinary flowers and plants become unusually large here, and people who walk in feel like they are in Lilliput country.
Furis was already used to it, so she greeted the other witches as usual. She was one of the last to arrive, but there were still some who hadn't arrived yet.
"Why hasn't the sea witch Asene arrived yet?"
"Fris, Asene is closest to you, have you seen her?"
Furis, who was sitting upright, curled her lips and said, "I haven't seen her. Maybe she's traveling around again."
Asene lives near the ocean in the Forest Territory, but as a forest witch, Fresne doesn't like this nosy and troublesome neighbor.
"Hualala--" A gust of salty and humid sea breeze suddenly rushed into the house, into this huge world constructed by magic.
The black-haired, blue-eyed sea witch Asene rolled in like a wave, first hugged the owner of this place, Gloria, then sat down next to Fresne, smiling at her with ill intent.
"Fris, why do you think I'm late?"
Fris took a sip of the tea Gloria prepared, "Oh? Could it be related to me?"
"I saw an interesting scene!" Asene almost lay on top of her, her tone gloating, "On the way here, I saw a swamp monster. The swamp monster actually ran to our place. Oh my God, it won't be long before there should be a large swamp in your territory. Maybe all of it will become a swamp. Hahahaha!"
Almost immediately, Floris remembered that Mellie had been "friends" with the Swamp Thing. Owl Pollock had mentioned this to her, but she had not taken it seriously at the time.
Although the swamp monster is troublesome, it will not move randomly. Moreover, you don't have to worry about it chasing you since you are so far away.
Now, her prediction seemed to be wrong, and the swamp monster really came to her territory.
The unexpected development made her feel a little uneasy, and she shook off Ashenee's hand on her, stood up and walked towards Gloria.
It seems that she is preparing to go back early.
The witch sitting next to Arseny was puzzled. "Swamp monsters don't migrate randomly. Arseny, do you know why the swamp monster went to your place?"
"Who knows." Asani curled her lips, then laughed again when she thought of what she had seen. "Fris often does mysterious things. Maybe she hid some treasure and attracted the swamp monster."
It was quite interesting, otherwise she might as well go and join in the fun. Seeing Furis hurriedly leave, Asheni also stood up.
Mei Li revealed the fact that he had learned some magic and no longer concealed it. He used it openly and turned the entire manor upside down.
She no longer stayed in the study and pretended that she could not learn. Instead, she took the book on the goblin language and occupied the garden with the swamp monster.
She drained the pond, leaving only a shallow layer to house swamp monsters, and created artificial quagmires in the garden.
The servants thought she was crazy and wanted to stop her, but who could stop a witch who had completely let herself go
They couldn't see the swamp monster, but they could see mud inexplicably appearing everywhere in the manor. They were unable to stop Mei Li, so they had to busy themselves with cleaning every day.
Alex, who wanted to stop it, was hit repeatedly by Mei Li. He shouted "crazy woman" and ran out of the manor to find some peace and quiet outside.
He had given up and just hoped to wait for Frizzle to come back and deal with her. It would only take a few days anyway, so as long as she couldn't escape from the manor, it didn't matter what she did inside.
No one dared to go to the garden anymore, so Mei Li sat by the pond, holding the swamp monster with one hand and flipping through the book on the goblin language with the other, trying to learn as much as possible.
"I may only be able to accompany you for a few more days, so I won't let anyone disturb us." Mei Li held the swamp monster's hand and said sadly, her heart filled with reluctance to leave.
The swamp monster looked at her and occasionally showed a rainy look. He didn't know what was wrong with her, and his expressionless gray face was a little helpless. He stayed in the pond for a while, and suddenly put his head into the mud, making an arch shape.
Mei Li, who was expressing her longing and reluctance, said: "…"
Why did you suddenly stop listening? Are you tired of it
Fortunately, the swamp monster quickly raised its face again, and the mud could not stick to his body. The still grayish-white swamp monster took something out of the mud and spread it out in front of her.
It's a little swamp goblin.
Gray-black skin, clothes made of fallen leaves, a serious expression... She had seen this swamp goblin before!
Before she could express her doubts, the swamp goblin asked her, "What's wrong with you?"
"The swamp is very worried about you. Your mood is affecting him." The little clay man said seriously, "I feel that he is asking for help, so I ask you for him. If you have any questions, tell us. We swamp fairies will help you."
Did she push Lovely so far that he learned to actively seek help from the little clay people
She didn't know what mood she was in. She felt soft inside and wanted to laugh.
"Actually, I'm dying," Mei Li said, "I have to leave him."
The swamp goblin was puzzled: "But you are different from ordinary humans. Your body has the same vigorous vitality as us goblins. You can live for a long time."
Mei Li didn't know this, but she understood it immediately. Maybe this was the reason why Mrs. Peg and Frizzy both wanted her body. It turned out that it was special in this aspect!
She further explained: "There is a very powerful witch who wants to take over my body."
Swamp Goblin: "Then why don't you defeat her?"
Mei Li: “…I can’t win.”
Swamp Goblin: "I see."
It saw the fairy language book that Meili was holding in front of it, jumped down from the palm of the swamp monster, and said, "The witches' magic power comes from us fairies. What they chant are actually the ballads that fairies love. What can be recorded are some ordinary magics, but the truly powerful witches have their own magic, which is the ballad that the fairies who love them give to them alone."
"I can give you our swamp goblins' special songs, and you can use our powers."
The little swamp goblin flew up, circled around Meili's head, sang a short song, and finally bumped his forehead against hers.
"Okay." He said seriously, "The swamp loves you, and you will have powerful magic."
The swamp goblin crawled into the mud and left. Mei Li was still a little dazed. She touched her forehead and pulled the swamp monster's gray hair. "Just now, the little clay man meant that I could use powerful magic related to the swamp?"
Could it be: Earth Magic? !
With excitement and uncertainty, Mei Li pointed to the flat grassy ground and recited the song of the swamp goblins.
In the blink of an eye, the ground rose up and instantly reached a height of five meters.
She was just doing an ordinary experiment.
This is the power of magic, and this is just the simplest magic.
Mei Li's chest heaved as she grabbed the green leaves of a clump of irises by the pond. In her hands, which were flashing with yellow light, the irises suddenly grew several meters high, with branches and leaves so thick that people could almost climb up.
She looked at her hands and was confused for a moment. Is making plants grow also considered earth element
But, who cares!
Turning her head, Mei Li pounced on the swamp monster with sparkling eyes, and couldn't help shouting: "Oh my God! You are so powerful!"
This was the strength the swamp lent her.
It turns out that it is actually a generator, and I used it wrong before!
"I can definitely go back with you."
Fress hurried back and found that her magic circle had failed and the manor had become a mess, which made her face darken.
"Someone tell me what is going on!"
Alex stood in front of the half-collapsed manor with a dusty face. When he saw her, his eyes lit up, and then he showed an embarrassed and uneasy expression, "I don't know. I don't know why Meili suddenly possessed powerful magic. Our manor was destroyed by her..."
"Although she ran away, Mr. Pollard has already chased her. I'm sure you will be able to catch her back soon, Furis."
Furis looked grim, "Why couldn't you stop her?"
Alex carefully leaned over and hugged her, feeling a little depressed. "Her body will be used by you, Fresse, in the future. How can I hurt her body? Besides, you have too little magic left in the magic necklace, and I have used it all up."
Furis pushed him away, took the sapphire necklace from his hand, and waved it in the air twice. The fairies in the wind smelled the scent of plums, and she immediately chased in that direction.
"Fris! Wait for me!" Alex rode his horse and followed her.
Mei Li walked with the swamp monster in the canyon by the sea. In order to escape from the manor, she almost used up all the magic power in her body and could only let the swamp monster carry her out.
She thought that they should find a place to hide first, and when she became stronger, she would no longer need to be afraid of Furis. Thinking optimistically, perhaps Furis would be dead by then.
But where can I hide
On the left is the sea water with dark green and blue interweaving, and on the right is the canyon grass with a mixture of cyan and green.
The owl flying overhead suddenly landed. "I can sense the presence of Madam Frizzle. She's chasing me."
Mei Li sat up suddenly, holding the swamp monster's neck, "How can she be so fast!"
Where can I hide
A woman with black hair and blue eyes suddenly appeared in front of them and waved the conch in her hand. "Hey, little girl, do you want to hide here for a while?"
