Chapter 376: Armored Sanctification
“Witch,” Ashe said seriously, “We’re not joking with you. If you get infected with the Secret Toxin, it won’t just harm you; our symptoms will worsen too. So, if you can avoid infection, please do.”
“Alright, let’s drop this topic. But to make sure the Witch doesn’t keep thinking about it, Sword Princess, go tickle her.”
“Understood.”
“No, don’t! I’m very ticklish! Stop it! Hahaha! Stop! Hahaha! Okay, okay, I have something to say too! I have something to say!”
Deya, with a flushed face, collapsed into Sonya’s arms, her shoulders trembling and her nose sniffling. It took her a while to catch her breath. “It’s about my relationship with the Gospel Incarnation…”
Ashe and the Sword Princess perked up.
Throughout this Adventure in the Amnesia Cabin, the biggest mystery wasn’t the true purpose of the Secret Incarnation or the Incarnation of the Stars, but rather the connection between the Witch operator and the Empress’s heroic soul. Why did the Gospel Incarnation, the Witch, the Witch’s grandmother, and the Basement Girl all share the same appearance template?
Even if the Witch’s appearance was indeed beautiful, it seemed unlikely that everyone would choose the same look. And what about genetic diversity? Did meiosis get killed off by mitosis?
Compared to a simple “love of beauty,” Ashe and the Sword Princess believed in another hypothesis: the Witch’s appearance was not a natural miracle of life but a result of deliberate interference by a sorcerer, allowing it to remain unchanged through generations or even dozens of generations.
