Miss Witch’s Devotion Has Gone… Twisted

”Get moving quickly, stop daydreaming.”

”Yes...”

The scarecrows pretended nothing had happened, following Loren as he flew out of the dream.

”Alright, now I’ll take you to the Forest of Dreams. Remember, that place is closer to reality. Many things that only exist in dreams will fail there. For example, you will feel pain, and you won’t be able to control what happens.

”The outskirts of the Forest of Dreams are all thorns. As long as you don’t go inside, you’ll be fine.

”You can still use magic there, so you’re responsible for causing destruction outside. If something chases you, run fast. If you can’t run away, wake up. I’ll take the chance to sneak in.

”If you die here, you will really die.”

While heading there, Loren emphasized these points to everyone again.

The scenery around them rapidly transformed. Reaching the Forest of Dreams wasn’t done with legs, but with consciousness.

Soon, everyone saw the ground covered in thorns, and within the thorns, the Dream Trees.”So beautiful...”

The female scarecrow suddenly sighed with emotion. Loren immediately emphasized:

”Keep an eye on the runes on the back of your hand at all times. Don’t get influenced.

”Now, begin the operation.”

After saying this, Loren distanced himself from them, simultaneously using The Hermit card to conceal his own existence.

The others stood in different positions and simultaneously launched attacks on the Forest of Dreams.

There was no soil here, so Abundant Magic couldn’t exert much power. Thorny vines grew from the Bishop’s body, these vines extending to the thorns surrounding the Forest of Dreams and began tearing at them.

This level of attack was completely useless against these thorns, but it was enough to attract attention, which was their goal.

Seeing this, the other scarecrows followed suit, attacking these thorns with all their might.

Soon, the Angels of the God of Dreams flew out. A multitude of Angels swarmed out en masse. It was the first time the Bishop and the others had witnessed such a grand scene.

Many people spend their entire lives without ever seeing a single Angel, yet here they were being chased by so many Angels simultaneously.

”Run!”

The Bishop reacted, tearing off the thorns from his body to flee, but it was clearly too late. Angels were not lifeforms on the same level as them.

The dozen or so hands on the Angel’s fingertips had already grabbed the Bishop’s scalp.

At this moment, his body began to crumble, becoming distorted. In the last second, he successfully saw the rune on the back of his hand, and his entire person instantly vanished.

The same happened to the other scarecrows. Combined, they had bought Loren less than five seconds.

But it was enough.

Simultaneously, on the other side, Loren activated all the speed-boosting magic he could, along with the Strength Card, and charged into the thorns.

These thorns possessed perception functions at the level of Orthodox Gods and carried many Protective Wards. Flying was impossible here, nor could one pass through from other places. The only way was to force one’s way through.

Moreover, what was here wasn’t Loren’s physical body either, so the High Tower card couldn’t be used.

As the thorns scraped against Loren’s skin, they brought waves of heart-piercing pain. Just being touched by them caused pain far exceeding that of losing a limb, let alone having thorns pierce the skin.

This kind of pain struck directly at the soul, as if tearing a person’s soul apart by force, shredding it into pieces.

And Loren was long accustomed to enduring pain. He charged recklessly into the thicket of thorns, letting the thorns tear his body.

Finally, before being discovered by the Angels, Loren reached the interior of the Forest of Dreams.

Dream Trees were everywhere here. Above the Dream Trees were dense clusters of light points. Each light point represented a believer of the God of Dreams, their dreams completely controlled by the God of Dreams.

Finding Phoris wouldn’t be too difficult, because her dream was the opposite of reality. That’s why her Dream Leaf appeared in reality, while her actual body was here in the Forest of Dreams.

The only difficulty was that the Forest of Dreams was too vast. Finding Phoris’s body would take considerable time.

And here, Loren couldn’t conveniently make too much commotion either, having to rely on his naked eyes to search.

However, Loren didn’t waste too much time.

”So many people...”

Loren arrived at a flower field. This flower field was particularly eye-catching within the pure white Forest of Dreams.

And right in the center of the flower field, many people were lying down. It was among this crowd that Loren found Phoris’s figure.

”Are these all special Dreamwalkers...”

The number of these people somewhat shocked Loren. Simultaneously, he was also considering whether he should deal with all of them.

Kill them? These people were likely innocent. But if he didn’t kill them, they could pose a threat to Loren in the future.

In the end, Loren chose a compromise.

Loren suddenly thrust his finger toward one person’s eye. With Loren’s strength, it was enough to directly shatter their brain. Yet, this strike actually didn’t cause any harm.

Because Loren had just used the ability of the Justice Card. The Justice Card could not only store damage others inflicted on him, but could also store damage he inflicted on others, and with fewer restrictions.

For example, Loren could completely stab someone in a crowded place while they weren’t paying attention, store the damage, and then let the damage erupt after he left, killing them.

There weren’t many time restrictions on storing damage, so Loren could also use this method to control others.

Loren gave everyone a hit, one after another, simultaneously memorizing their faces.

When they tried to oppose him in the future, Loren could directly kill them remotely.

Moreover, not killing this group might also help when the time came for Loren to settle accounts with the God of Dreams.

After dealing with the others, Loren finally came to Phoris’s side. Now was the time to settle accounts with Phoris.

”Wake up. Get up and go back to sleep.”

Logically, the safest choice would be to punch her to death while she was asleep. But Loren felt letting her die that quickly wouldn’t do justice to all the trouble she had caused recently.

And if he stirred up something interesting, he might even get Cassian’s help.

So Loren chose to give her two slaps, waking her up first.

”The surgery was a success. You’re a girl now.”

”Wasn’t I already female...”

The awakened Phoris was groggy, not quite understanding the situation, and subconsciously responded.

”Which proves the surgery was a success. It even changed your thinking.”

”Loren?”

After figuring out the situation, Phoris reacted quickly, throwing a punch at Loren.

But what was here was Phoris’s true body, an ordinary person, an ordinary person without any supernatural power. So much so that Loren simply caught her fist between two fingers.

Loren’s Strength stat was only ten points, but it was enough to overpower an ordinary person. So Loren exerted force with his fingers, squeezing Phoris’s fist hard. Phoris immediately felt intense pain.

”Ah...”

Phoris let out a scream. The pain was so severe she couldn’t even sit up, like a stray dog run over by a car.
