[When Alice saw the villagers, she already had a plan in her heart.]

[Her hatred for evil was deep, and she planned to take back everything that had been taken from the villagers.]

[At the same time, she was ready to execute a long-conceived plan of revenge.]

[The Master of Thunder had destroyed her village, and she would destroy the foundations of the Master of Thunder.]

[She would use these villages as a starting point to ignite a war against the Master of Thunder in the backyards of the entire Roland Empire.]

[In the years since the Church of Thunder has become the state religion of the Roland Empire, countless civilians have been plundered by the Thunder Knights.]

[They use violence in the countryside, and power in the towns.]

[Countless wealth has flowed into the pockets of the high ranks of Thunder.]

[The anger of the weak became the nourishment for the Thunder.]

[Thunder was born of justice, yet the Master of Thunder was never just; He was merely a thief who stole authority.]

[However, this did not stop the Church of the Master of Thunder from acting in the name of justice.]

[Everything that disagrees with them is labeled as heretical and hunted down by all Thunder Knights.]

[In Alice's plan, the moment the Thunder Knight Commander was about to kill her, Anna would secretly strike from behind Alice, directly killing the Thunder Knight Commander.]

[In the eyes of the villagers, this once invincible Knight Commander died at Alice's hands.]

[Then Alice would take the opportunity to deliver a speech, letting the name of Witch Hozerville be sung among the villagers.]

[In today's Dawn Continent, stirring up any movement against the Church is very difficult.]

[In most people's eyes, the detestable ones were never the leaders of the Church. The ones they truly despised were those who constantly provoked matters, forcing the Church to fight back and, in turn, collect higher taxes—the heretics.]

[Since the recovery of the Gods, there has never been a truly peaceful day on the Dawn Continent. There are wars nearly every day, with various churches engaging in endless conflicts.]

[People's resentment was vented against those of different faiths.]

[In the Church's propaganda, their suffering and hardships were all because heretics stole their resources and jobs.]

[Alice wasn't entirely sure why the Dawn Continent had become like this.]

[Her experiences over the past year told her she might have the ability to gather some people together.]

[She didn't have grand ideals.]

[She just wanted everyone to be able to live their lives peacefully, without fear of the marauders and knights that might arrive tomorrow.]

[The instant death of the Thunder Knight Commander greatly elevated Alice's image in the villagers' eyes.]

[They were initially somewhat afraid, worried that everything this young girl said would vanish like smoke in the face of overwhelming power.]

[They increasingly respected this young girl.]

[The name of Witch Hozerville began to spread in the north of the Roland Empire.]

[Ding! You have obtained a Spell Card: Fame]

[Ding! You have obtained a Permanent Spell Card: Thunder's Enmity]

Shen Sui watched all of this, and rather than feel happy about acquiring two Life Cards, he fell into contemplation.

Although he wanted to say that Alice was a bit naive, somehow he felt that such an Alice was quite good.

At least, she truly acted on her beliefs.

The villagers hadn't abandoned their faith in the Master of Thunder because of this incident.

A thousand years of habit wouldn't change so easily.

But because they still believed in the Thunder.

They naturally believed in the strong. It's just that now Alice seemed like the more powerful one.

Shen Sui suddenly thought, the Church of the Master of Thunder was one of the few churches on the entire Dawn Continent that constantly faced rebellions.

Hmm, since Alice wants to overthrow the Church of the Master of Thunder, let's see if there's a chance to let the Church of the Master of Thunder disrupt itself first.

Only when the waves are high can one fish in troubled waters, after all.

[Alice originally wanted to press the advantage.]

[But she remembered you who were still asleep.]

[She decided to temporarily put aside her plans and go to the Elf Forest with Aina first.]

Ah, is Alice really looking out for me?

Then if I'm not saved this time, wouldn't it be a bit unreasonable....

Shen Sui thought to himself.

[Alice's fearless defiance of authority greatly impressed Aina, and she increasingly felt that Alice was a very good friend to have.]

[Aina invited Alice to sit on her Elf Crystal Dragon.]

[Elves do not allow others to touch their mounts.]

[Except for close friends and lovers.]

[This was an invitation meant only for close friends.]

[Anna did not receive an invitation from Aina.]

[She stood next to Lingyi with a trace of resentment.]

["Don't vent your anger on me," Lingyi complained, "Go look for Alice."]

[Anna coldly looked at Lingyi.]

[Lingyi obediently shut her mouth; she couldn't beat Anna.]

[Damn it! If it weren't for the fact that this isn't the Spiritual World, would I be afraid of you? Lingyi thought fiercely to herself.]

[The group, with two dragons, headed towards the Elf Forest.]

Shen Sui rubbed his temples, temporarily diverting his gaze from the Dueling Device.

He always felt that if he let Alice continue like this, this little girl would eventually cause some big news.

Although it seemed she was always creating big news.

But in the past, Shen Sui maintained an indulgent attitude.

Yet this time, Shen Sui was somewhat hesitant.

Going on like this, wouldn't this matter get a bit too big?

Although.... I do enjoy seeing the rivers of blood flowing.

And at this moment, a brief notification sounded from the Dueling Device.

Shen Sui originally thought it was something that happened on Alice's side again, but when he raised his hand, he found it was a message from Qishala.

["Good morning, my dear master," Qishala greeted you.]

Shen Sui felt that Qishala wasn't the type to disturb him for no reason, so he quickly replied.

["Ah...." you responded to Qishala's greeting.]

[Qishala sensed your presence and felt an immense peace of mind.]

[She couldn't help recalling that ridiculous night, her cheeks turning slightly red.]

[Her pure white form broke through the clouds, and Qishala reached beneath the starry sky.]

[This was the birthplace of the Star Abyss White Dragon, and also Qishala's favorite place.]

["Alice," Qishala said, "that little girl, if possible, let her come to Dragon Island."]

Dragon Island is the gathering place of the Dragon Race, isolated overseas.

["Go to Dragon Island?"]

["Yes," Qishala affirmatively said, "After all, outside, she is operating under the identity of a Dragon Knight, and she must have the recognition of the Dragon Race."]

["Moreover.... there's an adequate legacy on Dragon Island, perhaps Alice can come to inherit it."]
