I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch-Chapter 327 - 302. Back to Childhood

High above the distant clouds.

Amidst the grey and hazy fog, a dozen individuals draped in deep red cloaks stood, and before them, a woman's silhouette stood with her hands clasped behind her back, her gaze overlooking the world beneath the clouds.

The woman was tall and slim, wrapped in a black overcoat, with red and black strange marks smeared across her face. The corners of her black-purple lips were nearly splitting towards the back of her ears, her teeth sharp like those of a shark.

The only part of her smooth forehead not covered by the red and black marks was a faintly flickering ※-shaped symbol at its center.

"Red-faced Ghost, we only have eight minutes," a man's voice echoed from behind her, "you'd better move fast."

The Red-faced Ghost turned her head and glanced back.

The man wore a deep black coat over an English-styled white shirt, casually unbuttoned, with a handsome face that appeared to be in his thirties, styled with a slick back, his soft and feminine eyes calm and indifferent.

The Red-faced Ghost let out a light chuckle, "Eight minutes, that's more than enough."

The man nodded. Someone in District Forty-six's Holy Department would hold them off, the only concern being the Elemental Church.

District Forty-six belonged to the turf of the Elemental Church, unlike the Black Moon Church which was falling apart—the Elemental Church had a strong sense of civic responsibility and loved to meddle in affairs.

They had to be careful with them.

"Lord Kovis, let me confirm one last time."

The Red-faced Ghost, with her shark-like teeth exposed, asked, "Are you sure you want to erase the memory of that female celebrity with the surname Mu as well?"

"Erase it," Kovis said with a faint smile and a shake of his head, "I've already given her a chance. It's a pity this foolish woman doesn't know how to cherish it."

Due to some reasons, he urgently needed to select a wife to marry recently, a wife who needed to have a very strong influence nationwide, and preferably, one with a noble status.

The daughter of the Mu family, though slightly lowly in status, had commendable beauty, barely meeting the required criteria, and was worthy of him.

But unfortunately, the woman had made an unwise choice.

As the leader of Golden Sparrow's eighth generation and the designated successor of one of Sparrow God Mountain's Twelve Seated, he needed a woman who would listen and not bring him trouble.

Disobedient women could only be handled necessarily.

Erasing their memories and past emotions would naturally make them much more compliant.

"Fine."

The Red-faced Ghost nodded and turned her attention back to the world below the clouds.

The arena for the Spirit Song Contest was massive, about the size of a university campus, and at this moment, people were fleeing in panic from the areas around the venue not covered by the Nightmare Domain.

The Red-faced Ghost did not bother with those who had luckily escaped. After closing her eyes and sensing the number of those infected, she frowned and said,

"A total of seventy-three thousand people, including nearly a hundred Spirit Masters, and a few of them have quite high spiritual power. Although I am the Nightmare Agent in the human world, this number is slightly beyond my capabilities..."

"No problem," Kovis replied calmly, "I can send two highly spiritual Spirit Masters into the Nightmare World to act as hunters."

"Your men?"

The Red-faced Ghost cocked her head and said, "Lord, I must warn you in advance that in the Memory World of Nightmares, spirit is king. Even if one's spiritual power is high enough to reach the Venerable level, they would however have to die humbly in the dream world. Unless they possess the spiritual power of a Sage, or even that of a Divine Level."

"Moreover, dying in the Nightmare World means their memories and emotions will be forcibly erased by the law, and not even I can control it."

Listening to the Red-faced Ghost's warning, Kovis nodded and answered with a light smile,

"I am well aware of this. Red-faced, you just need to create 'little nightmare demons' to deal with those tens of thousands of ordinary people. Leave the few with high spiritual power to my men."

"Colin, Ke Hai."

Following his command, two cloaked figures stepped forward, their expressions impassive.

These two were his core confidants, possessing Spiritual Artifact abilities that couldn't be manipulated by any means, perfect for exploring the capabilities of the Nightmare Disaster.

Moreover, both were very powerful, and as hunters, they could retain their full strength, not having to worry about dying in the Nightmare World.

Seeing this, the Red-faced Ghost understood Kovis's calculating intentions, but she didn't interfere.

Finishing the cleaning task to obtain "Divine Power" was currently more important.

Inside the venue.

Having heard Mu Qingtong's explanation about the Nightmare Memory World, Xia Feng felt that the Nightmare Disaster was absurdly powerful.

Directly returning to the Memory World before the age of 18?

As everyone knows, humans can't engage in Spiritual Pressure cultivation before the age of 18.

In other words, a nightmare could simply send an ordinary adult into the Memory World of a Fourth-order Spirit Master and could easily kill the Fourth-order Spirit Master.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as a Fourth-order Spirit Master who awakened their Spiritual Artifact at a very young age.

Some people may never awaken a Spiritual Artifact in their lifetime, while others awaken it while still in their mother's womb—such is the diversity of the world.

However, those who awaken a Spiritual Artifact in their infancy are few and far between; even if they do, the nightmare could just send in someone even stronger, effortlessly dealing with a little kid who has a Spiritual Artifact. It would be a dimensionally reductive attack.

It's no wonder that a Seven-Eyed Level Disaster is something a regular Spirit Master has almost no chance of surviving.

Xia Feng looked around the enormous venue that could accommodate tens of thousands of people, enveloped in a layer of red hazy light flow.

This must be the domain ability of the disaster.

Typically, a disaster's infection targets in two ways: one is like a contagious disease through contact, and the other is by expanding the disaster domain.

Such a domain generally has Law-level defenses, impervious from the outside, and not even the major disaster itself can enter at will.

For example, this Nightmare Disaster domain would infect any life that entered it with the Nightmare Disaster, dragging them into the Nightmare World.

"If it's such a terrible disaster, should we be running away?"

Xia Feng initially wanted to use the nightmare to search for his lost memories, but now it seemed impractical.

Thinking this, he took out a Black Crow feather and was about to use it.

"Um, there's one more thing I forgot to mention," Mu Qingtong suddenly said, "Although your strength will revert to that of your childhood, your spirit power will remain unchanged. In the world of dreams, spirit power reigns supreme."

"...?" Xia Feng's eyes widened in a tactical retreat, "Wait, you're telling me this critical information last?"

He was about to use the Black Crow feather!

Damn this Witch!

"Mr. Xia, I know you're anxious, but there's no need to rush."

The lady in the black dress curved her beautiful eyes into a pleasing arc, smiling lightly, "You've lost memories, right? Wouldn't you want to return to your childhood and see who that Sister Yi really is?"

But Xia Feng still hesitated, "Are you sure there won't be a problem? This is the disaster power of a Seven-Eyed Disaster."

"Rest assured, Mr. Xia, I'll protect you."

The lady in the black dress hooked her lips into a tranquil and gentle smile, "I wouldn't do anything bad to you as a child either."

"..." Xia Feng looked skeptical, "You sure?"

"Of course."

"The incident where I almost spanked you to pieces... You won't hold that against me?"

"Of course."

"Miss Mu, I've come to realized you're a really good person! Such magnanimity, no wonder you're so celebrated—so, have you truly forgiven me?"

"Of course."

"Well then, I suppose I'll trust you this time!"

With sincere and innocent eyes, Xia Feng said, "Miss Mu, I'm entrusting my life to you. You'll protect me, right?"

"Of course."

Damn it, can't you stop with that calm smile and give me more than those two words!

"Mr. Xia, if you don't make a decision now, there won't be any time left."

"Fine, fine, let's go!"

In the end, his longing for his childhood memories outweighed his skepticism and unease towards the Destructive Witch.

Holding onto Mu Qingtong, he deactivated the Holy Knight Space Ability.

The moment he returned to the Present Realm's space, Xia Feng felt invisible Law ripples enveloping his body.

His vision gradually blurred, and his mind sank into drowsiness and confusion.

It seemed like he had had a very long dream.....
