140 – Resurrection of the Witch King
-As expected, you don’t change.
Whether we turn back time or not, whether history changes or not. The sinners of the Magic Tower do not change. The Witch King made a decision. Let’s repeat what happened in our past life.
Chuaaa!!
Unholy magic emanates from the girl’s dismembered body. The elders of the Magic Tower were surprised. There are only a handful of times in the hundreds of years of history that unclean magic power has been created in the Magic Tower, and now, unclean magic power is emanating from the girl’s corpse.
Unholy magic covered everywhere like fog. The concentration is so thick that the skin of elders who come into contact with it turns pitch black.
“What is this?”
“Curse resistance magic around! Block the unclean magic!!”
Cicero, the elder representative, quickly shouted, but the elders were already putting up their own resistance. The unclean magic was so strong that the elders could not resist.
It was a curse they had experienced for the first time in their lives.
Ugh… ….
Soon, the unclean magic stained the entire underground laboratory. Everyone, including the elders and battle wizards, turned pitch black and fell to the floor.
“Okay…… Ah… ah.”
The elders fell to the floor and moaned.
The enormous magical power within the elders tried to burst forth, but it was suppressed by a different level of unclean magical energy. The magic power of the Witch King.
Soon, the elders’ bodies all turned black and their strength was lost. The wizards went limp. The laboratory became quiet.
Even the sizzling, burning fire disappeared due to the unclean magic. The girl whose entire body was pure white gradually turned black.
That is… Tsuzu That is.
The girl’s dismembered body follows. It’s like turning back time… A small, black girl got up from the floor in a half-destroyed laboratory.
Where the elders were, four witches were kneeling on one knee. They are all the souls of test subjects who were killed by the wizard. Witches made from the souls of experimental subjects.
-Your Majesty.
-Your Majesty.
The witches celebrate the resurrection of the Witch King in unison.
The Witch King felt that it was easier than his previous life. In her previous life, the Witch King was murdered by the elders of the Magic Tower and was in a corpse incinerator for a long time. In case the Witch King would be resurrected, the Witch King’s body was reduced to ashes. Because of this, it took a very long time for him to be resurrected.
‘It’s different now.’
The Witch King felt power filling his body. It’s not as bad as it was in its prime, but it’s still pretty good.
The Witch King approached the elders who had killed her. Magic Tower elders who died very easily. The Witch King placed her hand on the elder’s body. Push! And the elder’s body turns to ashes and shatters.
-You brought nothing but pain to Jim.
A grudge that touches your heart.
The Witch King was an experiment that was captured by magic tower wizards, disassembled, and reassembled. And it became useless and was discarded today.
-Luggage is not a tool.
The four prostrate witches trembled at the words of the Witch King. Since the four witches were test subjects like the Witch King, they deeply sympathized with each other.
-…… The pain we have experienced for a long time cannot end with this comfortable rest.
The Witch King grabbed the neck of the elder. The black ash crumbles helplessly.
Kugugugugugugu!
Unholy magic pulses loudly within the Witch King. The Witch King raised his magic power to devour the magic tower.
-Conquer the magic tower and subdue the magic tower lord Magus. Wizards will gather to rescue the magic tower lord. Then, exterminate the wizard fire moths. We build our empire once again.
-Ah… Glory be to your will.
-Ah… Glory be to your will.
The Witch King ordered.
Eliminate all wizards in the empire.
This was the beginning of the witches’ revenge.

Evan’s office.
Juri’s body falls like a doll whose strings have been cut. When Juri lost her strength and fell, Evan arrived in front of her using 『Steps to Open the Darkness』1 Castle. And she supported Juri with both hands before he fell.
Juri faints.
Tsutsutsu.
Evan checked Juri’s body using magic. Could it be narcolepsy? Or is it a curse? Evan was surprised.
But what was confirmed by her magical power was that there was nothing wrong with Juri. She just lost her consciousness. Evan called Michael.
“Michael!”
“Yes, sir! I’ll check!”
Michael put down his pen, jumped up from his chair, and activated a scanning spell on Juri.
Tsutsutsu!
Michael’s magic that looks inside Juri. Michael immediately shook his head.
“Nari, your younger brother is in good health. I wonder if the reason you fainted was due to a mental issue…….”
“It’s sudden.”
“I can’t deny it.”
Evan let out a long sigh.
Juri, a family with no memories of Evan. The only thing Evan remembers is that Juri was her younger sister.
But to Evan, Juri was a precious family member. It seems that Juri often went to her mother’s outhouse, and she approached Evan warmly. Although Juri’s mother was different from Evan’s mother. Evan didn’t want her Juri to get sick.
Throb.
Evan felt chest pain. It’s not because Evan is sick, but a signal from the Witch King’s sister, Titis. Evan placed a device on Titis’ body that said, ‘Send a signal when the Witch King is resurrected.’
‘The Witch King has now been resurrected?’
Evan felt embarrassed. Why did the Witch King come back to life when Juri fell? Evan glared at Juri without realizing it. A few days ago, she remembered the unholy magic she felt from Juri. Juri may not be the Witch King, but…….
“…… “Let’s move it to the bedroom first.”
Juri’s fainting may be temporary, so we need to stabilize her for now.
※
It was deep in the morning and Juri was lying on the bed, sleeping as if she were dead.
Evan was waiting for Juri to wake up on the other side of the bed. Maya is dozing off, leaning on Evan’s arm. Michael took her pulse and checked her pulse, temperature, and respiratory rate in real time.
“You overdid it.”
“No, sir. “It’s for Nari’s younger brother.”
Michael is grinning and not showing signs of being tired.
I’m sorry. Evan said that if Juri did not wake up by morning, she would have Juri admitted to a hospital in the capital.
“The hospital in the capital must be better than here. Pay the hospital expenses with the goods of the Lord’s Castle. “You can use it as much as you want.”
“I understand.”
For now, I did everything I could. Only then did Evan relax his mind a little and relax his body. Maya checks her device with her free hand.
『Cornelia: Benefactor! Currently, all communication networks in the Magic Tower are paralyzed! I’m contacting you because I think it has something to do with what my benefactor told me to watch the basement of the Magic Tower last time.』
This is an urgent message from Cornelia.
Evan frowned. Has the Witch King already taken control of the Magic Tower? In the past life, it took five years for the wizards to annihilate the test subjects and create the Witch King. Since the Witch King’s sister Titis returned to the past, I knew that the Witch King also returned.
Unusually fast. Evan felt uncomfortable. When I think of witches, I feel disgust.
‘I need to gauge the level of the Witch King.’
Evan thought about killing the Witch King. Is the Witch King’s current state at the peak of her previous life, or is she weaker than that? If you’re weaker than you think, he might be able to kill you. If you leave the Witch King like this, he will definitely try to kill Evan.
“…… Michael.”
“Yes, Nari. Please come back.”
Michael answered with a grin. Michael is quick-witted. Evan swallowed the disgust that rose up when he saw Michael.
“Okay… “After putting Juri in the hospital, you should also close your eyes.”
“Yep.”

The Magic Tower, whose lights never go out all year round, is immersed in darkness.
Red curses fill the walls of the Magic Tower as if they were blood vessels. The magic tower lord and archmage Magus had his hands bound by black shackles, sealing his magical power. Magus felt stuffy and glared at the witches with a cold expression.
“Even though their temperament has changed due to unholy magic, I know who you are. “Subjects 00 and 3, 5, 7, and 9.”
Witches who have taken over the laboratory of the tower lord Magus.
The four witches made the Magus kneel on the floor, and the Witch King sat on the chair where the Magus sat.
-If you remember, you must speak quickly.
The corners of the Witch King’s mouth are torn. An unclean magic power that takes your breath away. Magus felt like his heart was going to burst and die at any moment.
-All I have to do is tolerate sinners.
The Witch King felt joy.
Magus is the researcher who created the project ‘The Second Coming of God’ and the person who created the body of the Witch King himself. So to speak, the Witch King’s father.
It was the main culprit behind the creation of the Witch King. Magus, the culprit behind the Witch King’s suffering. Magus asked, feeling seething anger.
“…… When did you start planning a rebellion? “There was no sign that the test subjects were studying the curse.”
-It’s a rebellion.
The Witch King was funny.
The Magus does not know that the Witch King has returned in time. In my past life, it took me a very long time to get revenge on all the wizards in the empire.
But, there is nothing I can’t tell this high traitor. May this sinner suffer a little more.
The Witch King let out a creepy voice.
-…… From the moment you were born.
Jim was planning a rebellion.
Magus’ face was distorted. The Witch King laughed. A creepy laughter echoes through the magic tower… Unholy magic dyed those remaining in the magic tower black.
This change in the magic tower could be observed with the naked eye even from outside the magic tower, and external magicians who sensed something strange immediately reported it to the capital.
At this time, the capital did not view the current situation of the Magic Tower as dangerous.
