Miss Witch’s Devotion Has Gone… Twisted

Chapter 327: The Abnormal Nakoris

Following Loren's method, the Church personnel destroyed several other villas, along with the Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beasts inside.

As expected, they also discovered privately hoarded Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beasts in the minister's home. Consequently, they placed the minister and his daughter into the same cage holding the Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beast and hauled the cage to the Royal Capital's Square.

Initially, people didn't understand what was happening until a Scarecrow erected a notice beside the cage explaining the situation.

Inside the cage were the minister and his daughter, charged with privately hoarding Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beasts and obstructing the Church's efforts to exterminate them. They were placed here so people could witness the danger these beasts pose.

After reading the notice, those who had intended to condemn them for animal cruelty all backed down.

They weren't afraid of the notice itself, but rather the Scarecrow who posted it.

Scarecrows represent the Church. Obstructing a Scarecrow means obstructing the Church. Previously, even with knights present, some dared to interfere under the lead of certain nobles. But Scarecrows were different.

Fear continuously enveloped the woman inside the cage. She had heard stories about Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beasts eating people before, but she never believed the one she raised would do such a thing; surely hers was an exception.

Yet, under the influence of terror, she grew afraid and reached out to strangle the Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beast.

Sensing the killing intent, the Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beast began to hide. Unfortunately, the cage offered no space for concealment. Eventually, the woman managed to grab it. Just as she tried to crush it, the Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beast finally retaliated, biting off her finger in one bite.It was at this moment the beast's eyes suddenly changed. In its gaze, the woman transformed from hunter into prey.

The woman had failed to kill it instantly and had even lost a finger to its bite. The Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beast now understood humanity's place in the food chain.

Its gaze towards the surrounding crowd also shifted to that of a predator eyeing prey.

It pounced directly onto the woman's head, biting through her skull in one chomp, burrowing into the cranium to devour her brain matter.

This bloody spectacle horrified the onlookers; it was their first time witnessing such a gruesome scene.

After the woman's head was completely consumed, two Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beasts emerged—it had reproduced in a short time.

Immediately, it began gnawing on the woman's body, continuing to reproduce. Essentially, for every bit of flesh consumed slightly exceeding its own volume, it produced a new Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beast. Watching the corpse gradually diminish, people gained a new understanding of the creature's reproductive capabilities.

"Ah!"

This horrifying scene even drew a scream from the normally composed minister. Simultaneously, the Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beasts noticed another living human and lunged for his brain.

The minister only had time to raise his arm in defense, resulting in one hand being devoured. Just as the beasts prepared to feast on his brain, the Scarecrows finally intervened.

The body of the original Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beast suddenly began to mutate. Roots pierced through its flesh, spreading relentlessly, ultimately entangling the other beasts and beginning to drain the nutrients from their bodies. Within seconds, all the Prismatic Void-Gnawing Beasts had turned into desiccated husks.

"Remember to keep better control of your children in the future, don't let them seek death.

"This time, we'll let it pass. The Master Mentor has mercifully spared your life."

A Scarecrow tore the lock off the cage and released the minister, now missing a hand.

"Yes…"

The minister tightly gripped his wrist, staunching the blood flow, and responded meekly.

...

Upon returning home, Loren saw Naclis in the Living Room, a rare sight.

"Has the matter been resolved, Master Mentor?"

Seeing Loren return, Naclis, who had been lying on the table reading a book, suddenly sat up straight.

"It's all resolved."

Loren removed his black robe and casually hung it on the coat rack.

Normally, Naclis seldom inquired about Loren's affairs, only quietly listening nearby when others asked. She rarely displayed her feelings for Loren.

"That's good… Are you tired?"

Naclis walked up to Loren, guided him to a chair, and helped him sit down. Loren felt Naclis was acting a bit strange today, somewhat overly attentive.

Occasionally, Anna would suddenly become overly attentive too, but that was usually because she had caused trouble and didn't want Loren to get angry.

Loren trusted Naclis deeply, believing she couldn't possibly have caused trouble; she was always very steady.

"What's with you today…"

Loren didn't hide his thoughts and asked directly.

Movila was currently standing on Loren's shoulder, so Naclis couldn't possibly have been replaced by a Pseudohuman.

Loren glanced at Naclis's feet. She was wearing white tights and high heels.

Naclis was a contradictory person. She knew Loren liked white stockings, but to avoid appearing as if she was deliberately trying to please him, she actually wore black ones most often.

But that wasn't the main point. Loren didn't see a shadow beneath her feet, and a suspicion began to form in his mind.

"I just have a question I wanted to ask you…"

At this point, Naclis became hesitant and bashful again.

"Just say it directly."

For a moment, Loren considered many possible questions, but when Naclis finally spoke, he was still taken aback:

"How can I increase my bust size?"

"This…"

This truly touched upon a blind spot in Loren's knowledge. Even if Naclis asked him how to truly kill a god, Loren would know very clearly. Only this particular question left him at a loss.

"I really don't know about that… But it doesn't really matter. A smaller size is actually more convenient for movement. It might just be less convenient for breastfeeding later, but there's formula milk, so that's nothing to worry about…"

Loren didn't know how to comfort Naclis and could only say whatever came to mind.

It was at this moment that Naclis grabbed Loren's hand and pressed it directly against her own chest.

"See, you can even feel my bones, can't you?"

"…"

Naclis's sudden move caused Loren's brain to overload somewhat, preventing him from immediately pulling his hand back.

"The feel isn't great, is it? The only benefit I can think of is that you can clearly feel my heartbeat…"

As she spoke, Naclis placed both her hands over Loren's, firmly securing his hand in place.

Naclis was right. Loren could perceive her heartbeat very clearly, and it was gradually accelerating. At that moment, Naclis brought her lips close to Loren's ear:

"Can you feel it? Every single beat of my heart is for you…"

"Master Mentor, you're back…"

Anna emerged from the Bedroom carrying a small cake, only to witness this scene.

Her hand went slack, and the cake fell to the floor. Normally, with Anna's reflexes, she would definitely have caught it before it hit the ground.

Before Loren could say anything, Anna retreated directly back into the room and closed the door.
