Bab 147: Weakened seal

Standing in front of the mystical display conjured by Levi, the witches remained entirely unaffected, their expressions calm and composed. However, they swiftly organized themselves into a protective line before Ethan, prepared to shield him if necessary.

Yet, with deliberate steps, Ethan advanced towards the forefront, resolute in his stance as he spoke, "I appreciate your concern, but I'll handle this matter independently".

Anna's countenance displayed a touch of perplexity as she voiced her worry, "You're badly injured, how can you possibly…?".

Ethan's response was immediate and assertive, his gaze turning frigid as he locked eyes with Anna, "Don't interfere".

The witches promptly relented, assuming a posture of attentive observation. Even Lilith, known for her quick actions, remained motionless, her features betraying a hint of intrigue as if she had just stumbled upon a newfound curiosity.
