Witch.
Luo Chuan remembered that the first time he had heard this name was at the Opera House in Sainia.
It had been during the Grand Flower Expo.
With nothing better to do, he and Yao Ziyan had visited the Opera House, where an opera called—"Witch's Journey"—had been playing.
Just as its name suggested, it was the story of a witch.
As a traveler, she journeyed far and wide, witnessed different sights, and met different companions.
Yet she was only ever a passerby.
Later, Luo Chuan learned the name again from Anno, along with related books.
Most importantly—
According to Anno herself, when she had first arrived in this world, she seemed to have received help from that witch.
Yet she could not explain the details clearly, as though that part of her memory had been affected by some kind of power.
Now Yao Ziyan had found related books in the Speaker's library, and the story even contained the origins of Chimera.
Could this Miss Witch really be nothing more than an insignificant supporting character?
By Luo Chuan's understanding, given a certain author's usual habits, it was basically impossible for him to do something like that.
Though he was incredibly good at padding things out—having padded them out for so long—he still adhered to an author's basic professional ethics: diligently filling in plot holes.
"Witch..."
Luo Chuan raised his head, sat upright, and rubbed his chin. "Why don't we ask Anno again and see if there are any specific details we still don't understand?"
"Sure." Yao Ziyan nodded.
She shifted to the side, took out her Magic Phone, and began messaging Anno.
Anno, are you free?
I am. What's up?
*Didn't you tell me before that when you first came to Kolo, you received help from someone called the Witch?
