I Became a Witch in a World Full of Urban Legends

Breeding a Witch’s Egg is like drawing a lottery ticket. Although there is a general scope and guarantee, it is impossible to know what would happen to you after you devoured it.

When Miss Rabbit saw that the Witch’s Egg she worked so hard to cultivate had awakened into such a terrifying thing, tears welled up in her eyes.

“That should’ve been me…” she muttered as she stared into the fire, and the fire only served to fuel her hatred.

“J-just you wait! That egg will be mine once again! But for the time being…” she growled, fleeing into the forest.

Had she succeeded in her transformation, the roles between her and her master would’ve been reversed.

Now, her enemies have increased from one to two.

I’ll be back, Miss Rabbit thought.

An Qing concentrated all of her psychic energy to notify all the main operators in Huacheng, and the owl kept on hooting and beeping on her chest.

Soon, she got feedback.

The Underground Club

In a booth in a corner, a fancy-dressed man felt the vibration of the badge under his suit. His face was visibly annoyed as he placed the wine glass down before producing the owl badge from his suit.

“Hello, the user you’re calling is having a good time!” He spoke loudly to the owl. “He has absolutely no time to talk to you. Goodbye!”

After he responded, Bai Kai got up and bowed to the women in his booth, saying, “Sorry, my dears, but something came up in my company. Your tabs are on me!”

Amidst the cheers, he disappeared from the booth.

At the port

A girl in a one-piece pyjama squatted on the ground, hugging her pillow.

“An Qing? Now? Ah, whatever. I’ll just take a nap before I go.”

In a remote clinic, a hunchbacked doctor was suturing a hideous wound on the arm of an attractive man on the operating table.

“An Qing? Do you need help? Well, I’m dealing with an urban legend now. I’ll be there as soon as I’m done.”

Huacheng Folk Culture Research Administration

In the garden, a girl rested under a big tree with her big, black umbrella.

“Oh… I’ll be there… I’ll be there…”

‘Finally, somebody responded,’ An Qing sighed.

The ground started to vibrate violently, followed by a loud noise from the direction of the resort. They could see something breaking through the hotel roof and flying into the air like a fiery comet.

Accompanied by bursts of laughter, a petite and slender figure emerged from the fire.

Terrifying waves of energy swept across them, and a domineering and scorching aura commanded them.

In an instant, the air around them became hot and dry, and the forests around them started to catch on fire.

An Qing immediately turned to Jiangli, but all she saw was a flash of silver light that rushed towards the resort.

“J-Jiangli? What do you think you’re doing? You can’t deal with that thing alone!” An Qing yelled in horror.

“Damn it!” she cursed, chasing after Jiangli.

The dark night sky seemed to be soaked in ink.

Lu Yibei opened his eyes and was surprised to see that he was back on the rooftop of a previous dream. This time, it wasn’t raining, but the clouds in the distance were scarlet red.

From afar, he could see that the city was left in ruins.

The fire spread from every single building, and it was as if the sky itself was on fire, too, eroding everything it touched.

The grey mist that condensed into a human form screamed in pain as it was being consumed by the flames, and it attempted to flee in a hurry. Hearing the screams, Yibei felt a wave of sadness wash over him, and it only intensified over time.

“You’re finally here,” a voice whispered.

His heart skipped a beat, and he shouted, “W-who goes there? Where are you?”

“…behind you.”

He turned around, and he was greeted by a girl whose hair was red like fire. He recognized her immediately.

Her delicate, pristine face, her well-proportioned body, and her slender limbs: her features put Yibei under a delirious spell of lust.

“O-oh!” Yibei stuttered. “L-long time no see. You seem to have grown taller since last time, right? Aha…”

“Nah, you’re the one who’s about to get shorter,” the girl said, studying Yibei’s body.

Only upon noticing her gaze did he realize that something… important was missing from him. He saw his feet in an instant as he looked down through his slightly curved chest and delicate waist.

“M-my…” he stuttered in horror.

“Yes,” the girl nodded regretfully. “It’s gone!”

They continued to stare at each other, and Yibei grabbed the girl by her shoulders and bellowed, “What the hell did you do to me, you bastard! Give it back to me! Give it back to me, now!”

Yibei continued to yell, and the girl silenced him with her hands, “Shut up! I don’t have much time! Listen, if you don’t want your world to be destroyed by my hands, you have to…”

“Give it back to me; I don’t give a f*ck!”

“I’m running out of time! Just listen to me! If you want to keep your damn pe…”

“Just tell me!”

“There’s no time. You have to run! You’re a monster, just like me. Don’t get caught by the Night Division, and don’t kill anyone!”

The girl looked around her anxiously and continued, “After you escape, get back to the hospital immediately and pretend nothing happened. And most importantly, do not let anybody know your identity! The sun conceals your new identity, but remember, every few days every month, you will…”

Her figure started to phase in and out of his dreamscape, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab at the girl, but she was already gone.

Looking at the empty rooftop, he was stunned and shouted in despair: “No! What’s going to happen every few days every month? Come on; you can’t just leave me hanging!”

Jiangli stood by the resort with her sword, staring at the dormant figure that hovered in the sky. Breathing in the hot and heavy air was damaging to the lungs, and beads of sweat were dripping down her armour.

An Qing’s body was already scorched black, not far away.

Jiangli’s armour was almost completely broken, and blood flowed out like a faucet from her wounds. Even her pristine skin was marred by the licks of the flame.

Where are the other operators? She thought helplessly.

The girl before them was in a state of limbo, relying on her instincts to fight back. Even then, both of them were no match for her. If she happens to wake up…

Sure enough, the girl woke up. Her fiery red hair faded into an intense pink, and the surrounding temperature dropped sharply.

Jiangli and the girl stared at each other, and the girl’s frosty face was filled with murderous intent.

Jiangli gritted her teeth as she held her ground. ‘Even if I can’t beat you, I must…’

‘I must fight ‘till my last waking moment!’

The girl smirked as if hearing her thoughts. Just as Jiangli was about to pounce, the girl simply blinked at her expressionless face and yelled, “Goodbye!”

In the next moment, the girl flew into the air, fleeing.

Jiangli stood there, stunned.

‘I-I’m alive?’

‘Why didn’t she kill me?’

Her body couldn’t take the pressure anymore. Amidst her confusion, her vision darkened, and she collapsed onto the ground.
