Becoming a Witch in Another World
Chapter 52: The Witch of the Oracle God Hermias
Inside the spacious room where everyone who could be called a witch gathered, a man began to explain things to everyone.
There was certainly nothing good he could hear but death and destruction.
"It only takes a little more sacrifice then the God Hermias will rise, therefore all the people who are here will be pulverized."
Hearing that the witches were shocked, for them killing was easy but the moment they were about to be killed was clearly unacceptable, they join because they want to fulfill their wishes even from them have sacrificed many people such as their family or hometown.
"Don't joke, we won't accept this. I've done so much for you."
"Right, you said if we helped raise your god again, our wishes would be fulfilled."
The man in question just shrugged his shoulders lightly.
"I don't remember saying that."
"You're fooling us."
"I feel that the evil gods have been resurrected, if so we too must quickly raise up our God."
"I don't take it."
As everyone landed their displeasure a sword pierced them from every direction, shouts echoed from all directions as they fell to the floor.
"With this the preparation has finished haha," the man took off the veil covering his face and showed a terrible grin in which his entire face was wrapped in a bandage.

We arrived in a small town not too far from the previous city, here the people lived peacefully even though some of their buildings had been destroyed scattered.
"This city must have been attacked before we came here, so are we staying here?" on Tiffany's statement I nodded in agreement however I could not continue to provide mana supply into my vehicle, resting a day or two was more than enough to restore my strength.
In the room of the inn that I lived in alone I opened the book that Tiffany gave me, this book is the book of Greed's deadly sin.
Even for Tiffany herself she had never seen the contents, not because she did not want to but because she could not.
There was a kind of seal that prevented someone from being able to open it, in the previous city also Tiffany dropped the undead with her strength instead of the power of this book.
When I held the cover a voice came into my mind.
"You seem to want my powers, don't you?"
The book laughed.
"I'm Greed who bears greed, a human like you can't learn me or control me."
"Not before Meliana has controlled you, that's why your power is sealed and can't be controlled by anyone."
"It seems you know a lot, do you have any connection with that witch?"
"The disciple is my teacher."
"So then, well, if you want to open this book just do it. But I don't guarantee you'll be strong enough to hold it."
I don't know what he's talking about, but I still have to try. I used the Magic Script on top of that cover and then the seal just shattered.
The moment I opened the contents of the book, the writing that was inside instantly moved into my hands with a terrible pain as if my body would be grilled at any moment.
I fell out of my chair while the book laughed again.
"I told you, didn't I? Every inscription in me is made of the blood of a cursed greedy man, you will not be able to move it all into your body."
"I have to try again."
"Stop, you're gonna die. I have a better way than sacrificing your body."
I'm silent for a moment.
"Why are you helping me?"
"Honestly I'm tired of being silent like this, I also want to go to the outside world."
"A book like you can't have its own will." I attacked him.
"It's a pity young people, but I'm an Astral spirit not just a book."
"In other words the witch of darkness makes her book with spirit."
"Finally you understand, I was originally a holy spirit but that mad witch of darkness was whispering to me with a terrible human sin."
