Hurry up!
His body temperature,

If this continues, his heart will
A normal person can't survive

Don't give up so easily.

DEATH DISGUISE
Replication
What's going on?
I'm not
I'm Anna.
The witch who sneaked into
this country with Doroka.
Everything is just a part of our plan
to revive Witch Chloe.
I'm going to help you get away from here.
Who are you
You can ask your questions later.
Please take him away, Madam Ophelia.
What's going on?
I'm sorry, Doroka.
Thank you
for risking your life to fight for us.
Who are you?
I see. This is
Yes.
This is the Kingdom of Witches.
Well, you are fit enough
to come out already?
Yes.
That's great.
If something happens to you,
Chloe will be devastated.
Do you know Chloe?
Of course.
She had taken good care of me
when I was young.
I loved her the most.
I see
Let me down. I can walk by myself.
This is a secret realm
that humans can't enter.
So, bringing you here
is beyond what you can imagine.
It'll take a toll on your body.
Madam Ophelia.
We have a good harvest again this season.
THE WITCH OF REVELATION,
OPHELIA CLEMENTINE
What did you do to me?
What's going on?
I just invited you here as a guest.
Chloe's apprentice, Adonis.
Do you know Chloe well too?
Of course.
Every witch in this nation knows her.
She was the most powerful witch.
She was wise and cheerful.
And she was a witch with a gentle heart.
She was a witch with Ice Magic.
But she had a heart
that was as warm as the sun.
She was a witch loved by us all.
But she left the Kingdom of the Witches.
She didn't leave.
She was ousted.
Because she taught a human boy
how to use magic.
Did Chloe tell you that?
No. But I could feel it.
Because we only had each other to rely on.
For witches, magic is
something irreplaceable like our souls.
It's a proof of love and sacrifice
that was bestowed on us by God
so that we can guide mankind
to be on the right path.
Teaching magic to mankind
is a great taboo.
Witch Chloe accepted a human boy
as her apprentice.
No one knew why she did that.
At that time, all witches begged her
to abandon her apprentice and come back.
But she replied with only one sentence
I'm sorry.
It sounded like what Chloe would say.
Are we done with talking about the past?
Yes.
You can have this back.
That's my quill!
Move aside! Don't get in my way!
Give it back to me!
A quill made from the feather of a phoenix
and decorated with ripples and the eye
of the red dragon.
It's indeed a masterpiece.
Chloe made it for you, right?
Who else could've made it?
You say that your name is Ophelia.
Can you revive Chloe?
Witches don't lie.
Really?
I see
What What is that?
This is a secret realm
that is unreachable by mankind.
The Silent Star.
We came here 10 years ago
and built this sanctuary for ourselves.
This is the new Kingdom of Witches,
Lunamilia.
LUNAMILIA
Science has unleashed
the worst of human nature.
Maybe God created this spherical world
to stop mankind
from seeing anything beyond it
because He was worried about their future.
There's no God in this world.
It's impossible.
And these
are the tombstones
of the deceased witches.
Humans are often blinded by fallacies.
It's always darkest before the dawn.
The opposite of love is indifference.
But in reality,
the sky gradually becomes brighter
because of the arrival of dawn.
And the opposite of kindness is enmity.
The witches have corrupted mankind.
That's the fallacy that humans believe in.
This is the Tree of Life
that gives lives to witches.
TREE OF LIFE
Since you were a witch's apprentice,
have you seen it before?
No. This is my first time.
This is my first time seeing it in person.
Chloe refused to tell me too much
about the birth of witches.
Witches have only one gender.
So, unlike humans, we can't reproduce.
Our lives are given by this tree.
We are born from magical fruits.
Isn't it magical?
Is that so?
This is the last tree
that we transported from Earth.
All the other trees have been
destroyed by humans.
This is the only tree that's capable
of the birth and rebirth of witches.
Rebirth
Can it be that
Can it be that
Chloe
Is that Chloe?
No.
She's just a witch who's about to be born.
We need your power to turn her into Chloe.
What do you mean?
Magic
is something that is materialised
through our thoughts.
If you can master
your Written Summoning Magic,
you can materialise anything
with your thoughts.
It's a versatile magic.
I can materialise anything
with my thoughts
For example, memory.
Memory is the source of life.
If you can insert
all your memories of Chloe into the fruit,
perhaps
I think I don't have to tell you more.
No matter what, you are the crucial piece
in the resurrection of Chloe.
Tell me when you are ready
and I'll start the ceremony.
Is it true?
Can I use my magic
to revive Chloe?
You are the one who uses
Replication Magic.
Don't you have anything to say?
What do you want me to say? Thank you?
Are you joking?
Doroka is dead because of you!
It has nothing to do with me.
Wasn't it your plan?
Don't blame it on me.
What?
Wait.
I'm not done yet!
Stop right there!
Humans are really selfish.
As long as you have
your magic and this tree,
your beloved master
can be revived again and again.
You must be lucky!
Why did we
risk our lives to save this person?
Why?
Because you want to use Chloe
to your advantage.
That's why you saved me, right?
You saved me for this.
What are you talking about?
Stop acting dumb.
Adonis.
Listen to me.
The witches plan to use Chloe to
You need to escape the Kingdom of Witches
together with Chloe
The Kingdom of Witches
You can survive in this extreme condition
without a protective suit.
There's no need for you to build
such a tightly enclosed facility.
This is a cage.
A cage for humans.
You can kidnap human slaves or children
through spectral space teleportation.
Then, you can teach them
Written Summoning Magic
and send them off to war.
Because if the witches, who are about
to extinct, want to defeat mankind,
you'll need more manpower.
Chloe made it for you, right?
Only Chloe can make this quill.
That's why she wants to resurrect Chloe,
right?
Magic is a witch's soul.
That's rich, coming from that sly fox.
W Wait!
What do you plan to do
now that you know that?
Help us!
I can't let Doroka die for nothing!
I won't change my mind
about resurrecting Chloe.
I will do as she wishes.
That's it.
But if Chloe refuses
to go through with your plan,
witches will become my enemies too.
That's it.
Okay. Let's start.
We brought you here with our thoughts.
Now, you are going to resurrect Chloe
with your thoughts.
Okay.
Written Summoning Magic.
Memory Summoning.
Chloe
And that is Witch Pharrul.
Look, those two stars are connected.
Do you see that?
I know.
The great Witch Pharrul has
the same stunning beauty as Chloe, right?
You've said that so many times.
But you don't look like her at all.
You don't have to say that, you brat.
And that's Cil Dragon, the twin dragons.
And that's Last Phoenix.
That's Intellectual Giant,
and that's Clairs.
Amazing!
Have you memorised them all?
You are great. Are you a genius?
So, am I God because I'm your master?
And that one
is Adonis, right?
The constellation that was named by Chloe.
You are an idiot, Chloe!
I I remember.
It's the constellation that is connected
by the seven-coloured stars, right?
You are totally wrong.
And that's the wrong direction!
So, you just made it up, right?
That's That's not true.
Nothing can ever replace
the time that I had spent with you.
Now that I think about it,
it still feels like I'm dreaming.
Chloe
I can't believe you. Don't just
throw your clothes all over the place.
Aren't witches supposed
to be from a noble race?
I'm sorry, Adonis.
Just leave them there.
It's okay. I've already picked them up.
Adonis.
You can't peek
when a lady is taking a shower.
You are too young for that.
What? I was not peeking at you!
I was just worried
that you would faint in there!
I I'll stand guard outside.
Chloe.
Although we don't get
to take a shower often,
you better hurry up because
those pursuers may show up at any time.
Thank you
for accompanying me.
Without you,
I won't be able
to continue living
in this world.
Me too,
Chloe
I love you.
So
Thank you.
Quick, hold him down!
