Kapitel 120: Seeking help from a witch (4)

Author's note: this is from Seraphina's point of view

Vesper was offended by my questioning, but I didn't care. I doubted that any potion would require all those plants and it didn't feel right to let her take advantage of me.

"I can't force you to trust me, but without getting all of these", Vesper paused and pointed at the list of plants she gave me. "You can forget about unlocking Treva's powers."

Well, it's not like she will admit if she was tricking me.

If I knew that it would come to this, I would bring Ash to accompany me so that he can see her thoughts. No, no… that was a useless thought. Ash would need to touch her, and that would be weird.

Even if I had proof that Vesper was lying and I expose her, it would only make her indignant and get her to find a loophole in the soul contract, and then who knows what will happen.

I hated this feeling of being stuck in a corner.
