Chapter 39 The Demon Queen
At noon, the Witch's Forest.
The bright sunshine shines through the shadows of the trees, leaving a mottled look on the town in the forest.
In the palace in the middle of the forest, the Demon Queen, wearing a light grass-colored Victoria dress and a Lolita round hat on her head, was sitting in the courtyard of the back garden, elegantly sipping afternoon tea and enjoying the laziness of summer.
"Fu"
The breeze blew by, and the Damascus roses in the garden swayed a little bit gracefully and charmingly in the wind.
The Demon Queen lowered her head and looked at the black tea in the cup. A few ripples appeared, and then the messy ripples quickly spread out, and her expression suddenly changed.
Her gaze instantly penetrated the space and looked beyond the dense forest. The crimson crystal ball in the hands of the Demon Queen cast a layer of light and shadow at the right time.
I saw, in the light and shadow projected on the screen, a man holding a blue magic long bow, who had just fallen from the sky and stopped at the junction of the Witch's Forest and the outside world.
There was obviously only one person in the projection, and his temperament was considered friendly, but when she looked at this person, she felt something similar to the 'disaster' aura of the ancient demon god in his body.
That was not the man's own aura, but it was a kind of 'disaster' that she couldn't peep into, let alone understand.
The Demon Queen subconsciously touched the magic stone pendant on her right ear, but her hand paused in mid-air.
After putting down the delicate tea cup, the blood-colored magic power surged into the crimson crystal ball, and the divination magic was activated instantly, but the picture in the crystal ball did not change at all.
"Um?!"
The Demon Queen looked at the figure in the crystal ball with surprise, and she found that she could not foresee this man's future.
The next moment, she took off the magic stone earrings and used the magic stone earrings as a new medium to activate divination magic again.
In the projection, there was still no picture of this man's future, but many pictures of this man in the Clover Kingdom and the border a few days ago emerged.
Although the pictures that appeared were still intermittent and inconsistent, the Demon Queen found the relevant origins of this man in these pictures, and used this as a link to foresee a special future.
Looking at the corner of the future that appeared in the crystal ball, the Demon Queen fell into deep thought.
"Gugu~"
The next moment, countless crows wrapped around the Demon Queen, and then disappeared in the courtyard in an instant.
....
Witch's Forest, periphery.
Wang Changle looked at the forest stretching thousands of miles ahead. He did not enter rashly, but sorted out the information about the Witch's Forest in his mind.
The Witch's Forest is one of the neutral forces independent of the four kingdoms. Although it is not a country, it has a strength that the four kingdoms are unwilling to easily provoke.
In Witch Forest, all members are mainly magical girls, and each one has at least Magic Knight level abilities.
The leader of this forest is the Demon Queen, who is known as the first generation of witches, and is also the nominal ‘mother’ of all witches.
The Demon Queen is the ruler of this forest and one of the holders of the Demon Stone. It is also the purpose of Wang Changle's coming here.
In the Witch's Forest, in addition to the witch and the witch queen, there are countless protective golems. Once you enter rashly, you will be regarded as an intruder.
As far as he knows, in the derivative world of 'Black Clover', there may be countless strong men with equal strength in terms of combat power.
But in terms of divination, apart from the time demon Lucius' "Peeping into the Future", the Demon Queen of the Witch Forest is undoubtedly the strongest.
This Demon Queen has been living in this world for hundreds of years. Not only is she extremely good at blood magic, but she is also proficient in many other difficult magics, including divination.
Moreover, Wang Changle believed that with the intensity of the Demon Queen's magic covering the entire Witch Forest, even if he did not enter the forest, the other party would definitely be able to foresee his arrival. All he had to do now was wait.
"簌簌猌"
Not long after, a flock of crows quickly gathered in the sky, but then dispersed immediately.
The Demon Queen, who was dressed up for traveling, walked out from the crowd of crows and stood in the air, with an indifferent but unique curiosity in her eyes.
"Reckless Magic Knight, why did you come to the Witch's Forest?"
"Your Majesty the Queen of Witches, good afternoon. I am Odd, the leader of the Aster Killer Whale Magic Knights of the Clover Kingdom. It is indeed a bit reckless to come to the Witch's Forest this time, but I have something to ask for!"
Feeling the magic power fluctuations emanating from the Demon Queen, Wang Changle's face changed slightly as he spoke. This sense of danger and oppression was no worse than Leona's, or even stronger.
Recall that in the original plot line, Yami once challenged the Demon Queen but was defeated, and the only time he took action was to easily 'annihilate' the protagonist's group.
From this point of view, it was indeed a very wise choice for him not to appear in a hostile manner. This was also the reason why he did not rush into the Witch's Forest.
What's more, Wang Changle came here this time, firstly for the magic stone, and secondly to obtain the Demon Queen's divination. It is undoubtedly more effective to make good friends than to make enemies.
"As long as you can bring Vanessa and the boy named Asta back to the Witch's Forest within half a month, I can give you the magic stone."
The Demon Queen glanced at Wang Changle, who was courteous and courteous. The indifference in her eyes suddenly receded a lot, and she drifted off as she spoke.
The huge skirt did not stir up a trace of dust. It was elegant and majestic, but it directly revealed Wang Changle's thoughts with one word.
"Of course, it is my honor to serve under the Demon Queen."

.....
Wang Changle looked at the mission information that appeared in front of him. It seemed that the Demon Queen was interested in the anti-magic power in Asta's body. It seemed that this should be the huge inertia from the plot line.
Moreover, this task was not difficult for him who had become the leader of the Magic Knights, so he agreed with a smile.
Sensing the emotions emanating from the Demon Queen, he softened a lot again, and he immediately took out a large amount of jewelry and golden pearls confiscated from Qirui City.
"Well, by the way. Dear Demon Queen, can I use these as a reward to do a divination for me?"
"Well, what about the golden pearls from the Lake of Kalut? They are really perfect treasures. I like them very much. Well, tell me, what do you want to divine?"
The Demon Queen, who was about to leave in the air, looked at the jewelry and jade on the ground, and a rare smile suddenly appeared on her face.
After all, there is no woman who does not love jewelry, especially women who like to dress up. After picking up a gold pearl the size of a millstone, she said in a lazy tone.
"Rangils, the deputy leader of the Golden Dawn, the next head of the Bird family, a space magician, as for his appearance...just use my current image as a divination."
After Wang Changle said this, he immediately activated the 'simulation' and transformed into Langjiers in the blink of an eye.
He had no information about the old Yin Bie. If he wanted to complete the divination, the appearance and information of Langiers as the related person was the only 'medium'.
