The Witch Hunter System

Chapter 832: Shameless Exhibitionist



Vaan was suddenly amused.

Although they both knew exactly why the three Dreamcatchers were behaving as such, Hecate wasn't willing to admit defeat and stubbornly claimed he bullied them.

"I am seeing, alright. However, I don't believe we are seeing the same thing, Lady Hecate," Vaan softly chuckled before cheekily saying, "To me, it looks like you are the one bullying them since you have just lectured them."

"But let's say I did bully them, Lady Hecate? What will you do after knowing that? Do you wish to be bullied, too?" Vaan asked roguishly.

The three Dreamcatchers couldn't help but gasp in shock at his boldness immediately.

Who did he think he was talking to?

Nevertheless, Hecate did not appear offended. On the contrary, her heart slightly shook with embarrassment. Even so, she maintained her composure on the surface.

Hecate's nose twitched before she looked away.

"It seems I am no match for your shamelessness, Sir Vaan. That's a direction I'm unwilling to accompany you down. So, I will concede defeat in that regard," Hecate coolly stated.

At the same time, she felt confused. She suddenly wasn't sure what she was aiming for in their conversation.

Maybe she wasn't even aiming for anything? Or perhaps she was just expecting a little something back for everything she had given? She wasn't actually feeling envious and just wanted to express it, did she?

Hecate wasn't sure what she was feeling and suddenly felt lost.

"Let's be honest, Lady Hecate," Vaan chuckled and said, "You already knew what you were exposing them to when you decided to leave them with me. Thus, you shouldn't be feeling salty about a decision you made, don't you think?"

When Vaan said this, it wasn't for Hecate to hear but for Fourth Dream, who felt conflicted over what happened between them.

"That's true," Hecate thoughtlessly acknowledged with a nod before saying, "However, I still feel like I've suffered a big loss."

"Is that so?" Vaan smiled slightly before shamelessly saying, "Unfortunately, I am poor, so I'm afraid I don't have much to make up for your loss. However, feel free to stay and use this pure land anytime you wish, Lady Hecate."

"That is what you said, Sir Vaan. You can't go back on your word, alright?" Hecate replied with a bright smile.

"I am a man of my word, Lady Hecate," Vaan smiled back wryly.

Was that what Hecate was after? His verbal consent to her using the subterranean region of pure mana? Did he misread her intention?

Vaan started to doubt.

Nevertheless, shortly after shaking his head, Vaan said, "If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave and not take up any more of your precious time to enjoy this pure land, Lady Hecate." "Where are you going, Sir Vaan?" Hecate casually inquired.

"To cultivate this Everlasting Blood Mantra in a suitable place, of course. I can't exactly do that here, can I?" Vaan replied.

Since he had already been told that Hecate failed to cultivate the Everlasting Blood Mantra during her time studying it, he figured it was because the conditions weren't right.

If he guessed correctly, he had to cultivate the Everlasting Blood Mantra in a world with heavenly laws similar to the world of the Primal Chaos Era-Before Chaos was formed. In other words, he just had to go to a world that had yet to be part of Chaos.

Although he couldn't be certain that he would successfully cultivate the Everlasting Blood Mantra, he figured making the attempt in his original world would still give him a higher chance than in the subterranean region, which was part of Chaos.

"I see... I wish you the best of luck, Sir Vaan," Hecate sincerely prayed.

She had a strong urge to follow him and observe his attempt at cultivating the Everlasting Blood Mantra.

However, she knew better than to disturb someone cultivating.

"Thank you, Lady Hecate," Vaan nodded.

Shortly after Vaan left for the dimensional crack and returned to the side of the moon colony, Hecate calmly shook her head.

She suddenly recalled that Vaan did not ask her about the hundred types of blood in the blood bottle she gave him.

Did he trust her that much?

Nevertheless, she hoped he wouldn't be too disappointed in the quality of the blood essences she provided.

After all, the Everlasting Blood Mantra did not have any demands on the quality of the blood essences; they only needed to be from different types of beings, ideally beasts.

"Fourth Dream," Hecate suddenly uttered.

"Y-Yes, Mistress?" Fourth Dream nervously answered after a moment of fright. She felt like she was about to receive her death sentence.

However, Hecate softly said, "You can relax. I don't understand why you are all so afraid of me. It's not like any of you did something wrong, right?"

"..."

The three Dreamcatchers did not know how to answer their mistress. However, they did feel fortunate that they were facing her good side and not her bad side.

Hecate sighed before saying, "I left you three with Sir Vaan so you would encounter opportunities while following him. On that note, none of you have disappointed me."

"You three have reached the eighth stage of the Divine Dream Realm in such a short time. That is something worth celebrating and to be proud of. So, why do you all look guilty?"

"Ask yourself, have you really done something wrong? If you truly believe so, now is the chance to confess," Hecate calmly stated.

After a moment of silence, Ninth Dream hesitantly confessed, "Mistress, I have been peeking

at Sir Vaan doing the nasties with several women..."

"And what is wrong with that?" Hecate calmly asked.

"Err... Pardon?"

Ninth Dream felt her mind short-circuited. She didn't expect her mistress to be so nonchalant

about it.

"I saw something I wasn't meant to see...?" Ninth Dream answered unconfidently. "Something you weren't meant to see, huh?" Hecate smiled amusedly and asked, "And what exactly weren't you meant to see, Ninth Dream? I sent you three to protect Sir Vaan. You three knew that. Sir Vaan also knew that."

"Thus, whatever Sir Vaan did with his women, he should have expected you three to see it as well. So, if anything, it's not that you saw something you weren't meant to see but Sir Vaan being a shameless exhibitionist."

"Let me ask you something - Did Sir Vaan strictly tell you not to spy on his private business with his women but you did it anyway?" Hecate asked.

Ninth Dream opened her mouth, but no words came out. She was unable to refute and even felt speechless. She realized her mistress had made a very reasonable point.

It even made her feel dumb for thinking she had done wrong.
