11 Returning to the Tower

Opening the eyes and getting up, Calista could see nothing, it was like space itself divided that place from the rest of the world; but that didn't last long, as she could to see that the ocean started to fill the crater.

'... Perfect... now i'm naked because all my clothes were pulverized... Whatever, let's go take a demon body and return to the town.' Calista thought while leaving the crater in the direction of the Red Mist.

Seeing a black jelly-like monster with a head bigger than it's body and covered with hundreds of eyeballs on a strange tower, Calista immediately thought, 'So those are the Eye Demons huh... they are more gross then i thought.'

Seeing the hundreds of eyes turning at her direction, Calista started to kill the demons in the camp; with sonic sounds coming from all the camp, the Eye demon couldn't say where exactly the position of Calista while she killed the demons exploding their heads with punches.

'Since i already killed the Senior Demon that was guarding this place, they were so helpless...' Calista thought while taking the Eye Demon from his legs and dragging him to the forest.

Seeing no more a mountain near the forest but now a very big lake, Calista bitterly smiled.

'The explosion almost reached the stone tower... well, it didn't happen so whatever.' Calista thought while looking at the stone tower near the lake.

While entering the stone tower, Calista thought with a strange smile, 'Did Agatha stayed or leaved? hehe... Let's hope she leaved...'.

Seeing a kid no more then 10 years, dragging a Eye demon from it's legs down the tower, Agatha speechlessly petrified on the spot with a pair of shocked eyes.

'Tch... so she didn't leave.' Calista thought dissatisfied.

"... Who are you and where is your mother? What was that earthquake earlier? Was your mother that wrote this message and captured this demon? How on earth can you carry the demon so easily?" Agatha asked with a small frown so many questions that Calista frowned too.

"... Agatha from the Witch Federation of Taquila right?" Calista asked with a small smile.

"Indeed, I'm Agatha from Taquila, did one of the three Chiefs of the Union sent you and your mother to search for me?" Agatha asked with a proud smile.

"... 400 years." Calista said.

"... Eh?" Agatha said with a confused face.

"You're 400 years in the future after Taquila fall... There is no more Taquila to return." Calista said with a big smile.

"Wh- WHAT!?!?" Agatha said almost yelling to Calista with a shocked face.

"You're now a 400 old nanny probably virgin, congratulation." Calista said nodding with a smile.

"..." ( Agatha )

"... Anyway, there is no 'Mother'... i captured this shithead alone." Calista said while detaining the demon on the hall with Ice Generation, Agatha's ability.

"... I can't be surprised anymore... Do you have a similar ability to mine?" Agatha said while seeing the 10 years old kid using her ability.

"... Nope, i'm a transcendent extraordinary witch..." Calista responded while waiting Agatha to calm down so they can leave.

'... I can feel something breaking inside me.' Agatha thought while watching the roof.

"... Are you sure you are a extraordinary witch? a transcendent too?" Agatha asked to Calista with a serious face.

"... If a Extraordinary, is that i can sense the form and flow of nearby magic power, my ability is not affected by God's Stone of Retaliation and my magic power enhances my physical capabilities, then i'm a Extraordinary witch." Calista said while thinking, 'Looks like it will take some time for her to calm down...'.

"... Looks like you are indeed a Extraordinary one, but how can you be so sure that you are a transcendent too?" Agatha asked with a even more serious face.

"... You sure are annoying... after my 10th anniversary, i felt something inside me break and my body felt even more powerful... and i gained the ability to copy others source powers from near sources, like other witches, demons and even magic stones..." Calista said.

'WHAT THE FU- So Unfair!' Agatha thought with a bitter smile while looking at the kid in front of her.

"... Anyway, you said it was you that captured the demon, right?" Agatha said with a bigger bitter smile while thinking, '... If she were in Taquila, she would crush everyone instantly... 10 years old and already a transcendent extraordinary witch...'.

"... Indeed, i captured this demon from a near camp. I'm bringing it back to my town." Calista said while explaining the situation of the world in the moment and the quest for proof.

...

"So witches today are considered Demon's minions and are being hunted?!" Agatha said enraged.

"... It's the Church that wants to hunt the witches down, not common people, don't put innocent people together with the Church. We are all human beings in the end." Calista said with a small frown.

"Anyway, since i already know that the witches in the Union were considered as a 'Superior Being' then common people, i want you to work with this Lord, Roland Wimbledon, for 5 years. After that, you can decide what you want... This is a order, not a request." Calista said while lifting the cacoon of ice with the demon inside.

"... Fine, i will see if this common man that you speak so highly of is worth it." Agatha said while following Calista out of the tower.

"... Looks like you were right that 400 years passed, there was no lake here but a mountain after all." Agatha said while watching the lake.

"What are you saying, this lake was formed this morning with my battle against some deep sea demons, resulting in the destruction of the mountain." Calista said while walking in the direction of the Impassable Mountain Range.

"..." ( Agatha )

...

"... Why are we going to the mountains? Wasn't the town in the Barbarian Lands... Ahem, in the Kingdom of Graycastle?" Agatha asked seeing Calista going in the wrong direction.

"I need to salute some 'friends' before we go." Calista said with a glint in her eyes.
