51. The Witches Part 2

"Someone you don't know" he mumbled turning to face the other side but the daggers Cleopatra stabbed him with made him sigh and turn to look back at her, he watched as the dark side of her face stare at him but it wasn't as uncomfortable as it was before, it was more like Cleo than the scary creature.

"So?" She rose an eyebrow at him and waited for more explanation regarding those 'Witches'

"They aren't something you can mess up with, they're destruction, they're misfortune, they're death! No matter what, when you see those three turn around and run away" she kept staring at him until he finished talking and rested his head between his hands.

"I see you finished?" He nodded his head and kept it down not planning to look at her because of embarrassment. System 0 is unstoppable because he's not human and he can't be die unless all his mana is consumed and that's why he's afraid of The Witches, they're able to destroy who can't be destroyed, even some Gods can't stand a chance against them three.

"I see" she put a finger under her chin and started tapping it in a daze of what to do next, System 0 kept fiddling with his fingers while sweat formed on his forehead, his mind was a mess of thoughts and imagining the worst scenarios in case they met Cleopatra since for now she's the only warrior with the greatest amount of mana.

Luckily, her mana can't be predicted even if he, Nature or even Earth tried to find out. As if her mana has its own mindset to protect itself from danger and only appear when the right time comes.

"What are you going to do?" He asked her but she didn't answer immediately, she took few steps close to him and leaned down to him with her face few inches away from his, "I'll destroy them and add them into me, deep into my abyss" both her eyes turned dark and the dark mana ate her whole face making the other thing within her speak instead, "no one is allowed to touch what's mine System, and you, you are mine so those Witches need to be punished badly" its long dark fingers wiped a falling sweat drop and its big and scary stitched smile made him shiver but he wasn't afraid of it, he was just afraid of what it will do to the three.

"Don't worry, I'll let them have a taste of me before I get to have a bite" the voice was hoarse but it showed two speaking not one, his eyes opened wide and watched as Cleopatra's face turn back to normal before her small comforting smile show up and make him sigh and smile back at her, "take it easy on yourself please" he giggled and shook his head but when he opened his eyes and looked back at Cleo she was still in the same position.

Her smiling lips opened and uttered words made System 0 shiver and his face to flush, "System 0, can I make you mine?" She got closer to him, and held open his lips, "I fear I might lose you my System. Hmm? What do you say? My Gerwyn?" She whispered leaning closer but some noises coming from the woods made her take a step back and glare at the direction the noise came from.

Between the trees came out the Romanian warrior and after him the Viking and the Mayan lady, the three of them seemed out of breath but their eyes glowed at the sight of Cleo as if they were searching for her, "what a coincidence!! We didn't expect to meet you here Miss Cleopatra~ Me and my friends here-" he stopped when Cleopatra passed behind him and went to the woods with System 0 after her.

"How rude" the Mayan lady said folding her arms.

"Please don't say that. If being with her like that lucky bastard mean I should throw away everything and fall on my knees then I'm willing to do so" he smiled with his eyes turning dark while staring at the direction the two left to.

"The Witches" Cleo asked after letting go of System 0's wrist, "what are they?"

"As I said, they're destruction, misfortune and death. Each one of them represent one of those. Sadly, they came to be stronger than they should because their creator was mad from the unfair treatment toward him, so he decided to bring those three, he wanted someone to avenge for him"

"Who?"

"Zeus"
