Chapter 155 Promotion to 'Witch': Ambush
Following the potion recipe given to him by Natasha, Evan added the blood of the Black Abyss Demon Fish, the egg of the Agate Peacock, 5 drops of golden datura juice, 3 scales of the Shadow Lizard, and 10 drops of daffodil juice to the cup in that order.
Finally, they received a cup of dark red liquid, mixed with black, which looked exceptionally mysterious and beautiful, like a deadly alluring potion. "Drink it! Drink it and become a 'witch,' and you will officially become one of us."
Katerina Pelle's beautiful and captivating voice rang out, so alluring and enchanting.
Evan, who had already made up his mind, did not hesitate at all. He took a deep breath and drank the tempting potion in the cup in one gulp.
The potion was cold and ethereal, like melting frost, and a cold, itchy sensation quickly spread throughout Evan's body.
Unlike the pain caused by taking the "Arsonist" potion, the "Witch" potion, while bringing a cold sensation, is a taste that can make people feel addicted and happy. Before you know it, you can become addicted and unable to extricate yourself, and you will never want to break free from it.
At that moment, Evan suddenly felt that someone was searching for him in the dark. Alarm bells rang in his heart, and he quickly realized his own identity.
At that moment, he seemed to hear countless curses and foul language surrounding him, which then turned into fuel for the black flames that erupted from his body.
In an instant, black flames raged around Evan, frost formed on the ground, and the entire room felt like it had entered winter.
But in just a moment, Evan withdrew the black flames that were emanating from his body back into his body, the frost on the ground began to melt, and the temperature in the room began to rise.
Furthermore, Evan's hair began to grow longer and thicker at a visible rate, his figure began to become slender and tall, his chest began to bulge, his face became thinner, his nose bridge changed from high and straight to small and delicate, his red lips were bright but not vulgar, and his eyebrows and eyes were even more bright and moving.
The biggest change was in Evan's eyes. Before, Evan's eyes were azure and deep, and looking into his eyes was like seeing an endless deep sea.
Now his eyes have turned into a clear, crystal-blue color, looking empty and mysterious, captivating, like a frozen lake.
At the same time, countless illusory mirror worlds appeared in Evan's eyes. His eyes were filled with densely packed mirrors and the figures reflected in them.
Gradually, all the illusory mirrors merged into one, forming an incredibly clear reflection of Evan. The Evan in the mirror was a combination of his past life and his present male body, possessing gentle, Eastern-style features combined with deep, Western-style facial features.
This makes Evan appear even more mysterious and charming in the mirror.
But in reality, Evan, who had become a woman, coldly looked at himself in the mirror, because no matter how handsome he looked in the mirror, he could not escape his timid and cowardly temperament.
The Evan in the mirror, seeing the Evan who had become a woman in the real world, dared not show the slightest displeasure. She fiddled with the hem of her clothes with her hands, not daring to look directly at Evan. Occasionally, she would steal a glance at Evan, but immediately lower her head like a little girl who had made a mistake.
Evan stared coldly at himself in the mirror, saying nothing, his eyes icy and fierce.
Evan did not re-enter the Mysterious City after this promotion.
The instant he fully mastered the 'Witch' potion, he felt himself completely merge with the mysterious city that enveloped his body, becoming one with the headless body that represented him within the city. All the creatures within the city, driven by desire, bowed down to him, expressing their submission and hoping to become his servants.

Evan did hear clearly what these kneeling, worshipping creatures of desire were shouting: they were shouting about the calamities of destruction, the rulers of strife, and the root of all turmoil.
They were begging Evan to release them, end their suffering, and allow them to experience the world again.
Being able to feel the beauty of the world would free them from the torment of their physical desires, and they would even be willing to die, if Evan agreed. They would give him everything they had, just to be free from the torment of pain.
They wept silently, they prostrated themselves, they prayed fervently, all just to get Evan to look at them, all just to get Evan to forgive them.
At the same time, Evan also understood what kind of beings the creatures of the mysterious city were. They were all people abandoned by rules, fate, death, desire, and the world—they were prisoners who had lost everything, and this mysterious city was their last refuge.
But in the mysterious city, they became prisoners forever trapped in a "sea of suffering," never able to obtain what they wanted, enduring endless torment, while time itself seemed to stand still.
The only way to escape this torment is to receive a pardon from the city's master, Evan. Only with Evan's pardon can they leave this city of calamity, enter the human world, and escape their suffering.
Even if Evan saves them and brings them into the world, they can never escape Evan's control, because if they leave the protection of the mysterious city, they will be targeted by the whole world, and they will be abandoned by the world.
"So it turns out my cheat code is actually the biggest and cruelest prison, and I am the warden of this prison!" Evan quipped as he finished understanding the mysterious city and realized how his future path would unfold.
Evan knew that with Katarina Pelle and Natasha by his side, the other secrets of the Mysterious City could be explored later; the important thing now was to deal with them.
Evan closed his light blue eyes, suppressing his spirituality, then opened them again, looking at Natasha and Katarina Pelle with a smile, and said:
"I have mastered the 'Witch' potion and have officially become a 'witch.'"
Before Natasha could say anything, Katarina Pelle in the mirror spoke first:
"After a witch's advancement, she can see her most unbearable self, or her favorite side, in the mirror."
What did you see?
Evan remained silent for a moment, and Katarina Pelle did not urge him, but simply looked at him with a girlish smile.
After a long pause, Ai Wen said, "I saw myself shrinking back in the face of difficulties and humiliation."
Katerina Pelle didn't say anything more, she just nodded and said:
"You are a natural witch. Witches are the dividing line between the assassin path. I have had several children who lost control when they were promoted to witches. After all, the role-playing method is not a panacea, and it also depends on the individual circumstances."
Not only did you master the 'Witch' potion in the shortest time, but you should also have largely digested the 'Witch' potion, right?
Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to control black flames and frost so freely.
Katrina Pelle and Robert both made the mistake of not having enough imagination. The "Witch" potion melted in Evan's mouth just like the "Arsonist" potion. However, it was not their fault, but rather that Evan's situation was too rare.
When Evan was promoted to "Witch", he seemed to hear the curses of many families who had been destroyed. These curses were very effective, not only allowing Evan to quickly digest the potion, but also deepening Evan's control over the power.
Simply put, Evan's black flames and frost absorbed too much pain and curses, making her abilities far more powerful than those of ordinary witches, or even "pleasure" witches.
Generally, extraordinary individuals prepare a ritual only when they ascend to Sequence 5, in order to resist the negative effects of the potion and enhance the individual's self-awareness.
Evan's expansion of the Tingen deception and his early digestion of the potion can be considered, in a sense, a ritual. This not only made the digestion of the potion a natural process for Evan, but also greatly enhanced his abilities after his ascension.
Evan nodded, admitting that he had largely absorbed the "witch" potion. Katarina Pelle, having gotten the answer she wanted and feeling that everything was still under her control, didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she gestured for Evan to pick up the Flame Badge that he had previously tossed onto the bed.
Under Natasha's murderous glare, Evan smiled slightly, stepped forward, picked up the badge, and without hesitation used his exceptionally sharp nails, which had become exceptionally sharp since becoming a "witch," to cut his finger and drip a drop of blood onto it.
As the blood dripped onto the badge, Evan felt a connection to something in the southwest Queens area. A scent mixed with the smell of blood and rust began to violently and unexpectedly invade him through the blood connection.
Evan was instantly enveloped in red light and permeated by a red aura, and heard a maniacal male laugh.
"Hahahaha! I, Bonaparte Witte, have finally returned! Hahahaha!"
Seeing Evan, who was enveloped and eroded by the aura of iron and blood and couldn't help but scream in agony, Natasha was shocked and turned to look at her mother in the mirror.
Meanwhile, the pure-looking and seemingly harmless Katarina Pelle, also smiling at the pained Evan, said:
"The Iron Knight can forge an unbreakable bond with his army, concentrating the army's power upon himself."
It can also distribute the damage, and treat everyone under its control as its own clone, eroding them into a part of itself.
"Bonaparte Witte's Perseverance" is a self-aware, living sealed object that desperately longs to have a body to walk in the outside world.
No matter how intelligent a sealed artifact may be, it is easier to control than a human being, not to mention that he is not even a member of our family.
Now that Evan Horn has already created such a favorable situation, why should we rely on winning him over to obtain the necessary intelligence and resources? Wouldn't that be too costly?
Natasha was also a ruthless witch, but she never imagined that her mother could go to such lengths.
"You'd already decided on this from the beginning, hadn't you? To replace Evan with a sealed artifact?"
"Yes! After discovering that my 'daughter' had actually fallen for him, I became very certain of this. I can feel the pain in your heart."
