Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Aria's 50th Sacrifice (II)

[Warning: Upsetting content.]

"I-Is that so?" Queen Anastasia couldn't hide her nervousness this time. She was THE serial killer.

She ordered her secret service to kidnap as many peasants' kids as possible without causing too much ruckus because Aria needed them to strengthen her witchcraft.

At first, she only asked for prisoners, but then she told her mother that her power stagnated, and she was craving a human—specifically a child sacrifice in exchange for more power.

Thus, Anastasia had to kidnap those children. 

Fortunately, the children's sacrifices were proven to be effective, as Anastasia kept observing Aria's growth in dark magic. The last time she observed her daughter, Aria was able to mind-control two soldiers to start killing each other until one of them died.
