Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 456: Chapter 183: The Saintess’s Transformation into a Witch (Part 2)

She naturally knows that Lord Duke has a large number of wives.

During this time, to spare her embarrassment, Lord Duke had avoided introducing her to the wives.

Now, with their relationship taking yet another step forward, it truly was time for them to meet.

If she wants to stay by Lord Duke’s side, she must integrate into this big family and gain everyone’s acceptance.

"Good morning, Lucia."

Liya stepped forward gently and took the hand of the Silver Moon Saintess.

David watched this scene, smiling slightly. He also felt it was indeed time for Lucia to meet everyone.

No matter if Lucia admits it or not, she is inherently one of the witches.

After breakfast, David brought the Silver Moon Saintess back to the study, intending to have a good talk.

Lucia blushed, thinking that they were going to engage in that kind of activity again.

But David did not act for a long time. Instead, he started talking about the wizards.

During this period when demon tides invaded, the wizards indeed played a significant role in combating the tides.

This made everyone on the continent have a different impression of wizards.

Originally, in the words of the Church, wizards were the minions of the devil, incarnations of evil.

Yet now, wizards are fighting the true demon tides, saving many kingdoms and commoners.

Lucia listened to Lord Duke’s words, feeling a tide of complex emotion rising in her heart.

She was once a Saintess of the Holy Light Church, instilled with fear and hostility towards wizards.

However, ever since she began to truly understand the wizards, her worldview started to shift.

She witnessed firsthand the wizards fighting to protect the innocent; their courage and spirit of sacrifice profoundly moved her.

She began to question the education she received, suspecting those negative portrayals of wizards were not entirely true.

Originally, Lucia’s heart was full of contradictions: on one hand loyalty and faith in the Church, on the other understanding and respect for the actions of wizards.

She gradually realized that wizards and the Holy Light Church were not irreconcilable opposites.

Especially after realizing the Holy Light God had stolen the Holy Light Power from the commoners, this feeling grew even stronger.

Now, the new Holy Light Sect has been established.

She felt she might serve as a bridge to foster mutual understanding and even cooperation between the two factions.

Lucia’s face showed seriousness and determination.

David was surprised that Lucia’s mindset had changed so much, showing a smile.

"Let’s go, I will introduce you to the wizards."

He felt the timing was right to show Lucia the truth.

"Alright."

Lucia nodded, evidently having anticipated this.

These days, wizards are active in the northwest corner of the Bright Continent, so there must be wizards in the Silver Moon Kingdom.

And this could be inferred from Lord Duke’s attitude towards the wizards.

She even felt that, given Lord Duke’s personality, he couldn’t possibly pass up on those beautiful witches; there must be many among them who are his wives.

Wizard Castle.

Lucia met the witches inside the castle.

Although she had anticipated this, seeing so many witches still surprised her.

Lucia’s gaze flitted across the castle, seeing a variety of witches.

They wore various robes, some holding magic staffs, some reading ancient magic books, and others mixing mysterious potions.

Their ages, appearances, and temperaments differed, but they all exuded an indescribable confidence, completely different from the wizards she understood.

"Come, let me introduce you to them," David said, leading Lucia towards the witches.

Lucia took a deep breath, preparing to embrace her new life.

"Hello, our fellow witch."

Amy and other witches noticed Lucia, smiling as they approached.

In fact, they had long known of Lucia, the Silver Moon Saintess, and were aware that she was also a witch.

"Fellow witch?"

"Sorry, but I am not a witch."

Lucia hurriedly replied.

Though she could accept the presence of witches, it didn’t mean she herself had to become one.

"But, you truly have the power of a witch in you."

Amy spoke up, simultaneously activating the Heart of Ice Element within herself.

Lucia was stunned, and upon sensing the power within the witch, her eyes slowly widened.

She discovered that the power within the witch and that of her own Heart of Holy Light were fundamentally the same in some ways!

A storm raged in Lucia’s heart.

She always thought her Heart of Holy Light was transformed from the power of Holy Light.

And Holy Light and the witch’s magic power were different things.

But now, faced with the display of the Heart of Ice Element before her,

She realized that the essence of her Heart of Holy Light might be no different from the witch’s power.

This realization made her feel confused and shocked!

So, the power she possessed actually was witch power!

Her innate Holy Light Talent mostly originated from witch power?

She was a witch with a Light Attribute Talent?!

Amy noticed Lucia’s shock and smiled gently, "Lucia, power itself does not have good or bad; the key lies in the one who uses it."

"Witches and followers of the Holy Light Church, we’re both pursuing protection and helping others, right?"

Lucia was silent for a moment; she had to admit Amy’s words made sense.

She began reassessing her view of witches, realizing they might not be what she once thought.

Taking a deep breath, she tried to calm her emotions before slowly speaking: "I... I need time to understand all this."

"You can surely find the answers in Wizard Castle."

"The power within you belongs to witches, so the knowledge of wizards you can also learn."

Amy’s face showed a confident smile, "By then, you will truly understand the power you possess!"

"Alright." Lucia nodded with a complex expression.

Other witches exchanged a reassuring glance; they knew Lucia needed time to accept it but were pleased she was willing to learn.

David observed all this from the side, feeling satisfied with Lucia’s response.

He knew Lucia’s transformation was very important for the development of the Dawn Sect, potentially crucial in overcoming the Holy Light Church.

He decided to give Lucia enough space and time to gradually grow during this process.

"Lucia, you are not alone," David said softly. "We will all support you and help you."

Lucia nodded. Though still filled with doubts, she decided to take this step forward.

She knew she was standing at a new starting point, which might lead her to a whole new world.

Lucia stepped through the gates of Wizard Castle; everything here was both unfamiliar and novel to her.

The castle was filled with a mysterious aura; walls were adorned with various herbs and magic tools, and the air carried the faint scent of magic elements.

She took a deep breath, sensing this place’s atmosphere was completely different from the Holy Light Church.

Amy and the other witches warmly welcomed Lucia and showed her around the various parts of the castle, including the library, laboratory, and meditation chamber.

Lucia was deeply drawn by the vast collection of magic books in the library, realizing it held knowledge and wisdom she had never encountered.

In the following days, Lucia began her journey of learning.

She started with basic magic theory, understanding the composition of magic elements, the drawing of magic arrays, and the use of spells.

She discovered that although witch power and Holy Light differed, there existed a subtle connection between them.

At Wizard Castle, Lucia not only learned new knowledge but also acquired better control over the power within herself.

This was the moment she finally accepted her identity as a witch.

She began to attempt combining the Heart of Holy Light with witchcraft, creating unique Holy Light Magic, allowing ordinary people to harness the power of Holy Light as well!
