The Witch Hunter System

Blackthorn City, the heart and metropolis of the Kingdom of Black Rose, was home to more than two million residents and spanned over ten thousand square miles of land.

It was by far the largest city in the entire Kingdom of Black Rose, making all other settlements in the kingdom look like backwater villages.

From a distance, the metropolis looked like a great forest of black thorns due to its countless black spire witch towers standing tall and towering over the land. Their tips drew in the pure mana from the atmosphere like vacuums, forming a whirlpool of the mana that looked like flower petals.

Nevertheless, none of the black spire witch towers could compare to the one in the center of the metropolis, standing thrice as tall and possessing over a hundred and fifty floors.

The grand building seemingly piercing into the clouds was called the Blackthorn Tower, owned by the ruler of the land, the Transcendent Witch of Black Rose, Henrietta Rosegarden.

Numerous platforms extended out of the Blackthorn Tower like thorny branches. At the same time, many magic airships of varying designs could be seen docked on them.

Ember Killian ’s magic airship descended and docked onto one of the empty platforms on the higher floors after it reached Blackthorn City.

Shortly after, Astoria Braveheart and everyone disembarked with their captives.

At the same time, a group of Peak-stage True Witches came forward to inspect the magic airship and perform maintenance.

…

Meanwhile, on Blackthorn Tower ’s top floor, a seemingly young lady of peerless beauty stood by the edge of the balcony of her room, staring into the distant north.

She had long, soft, and silky black hair that fluttered in the wind, deep black eyes like the starry skies, a turned-up nose, and a fair complexion. While her body was petite, she wore a loose black silk dress that revealed much of her flawless and smooth back without a single blemish.

Although she had a small figure, her presence was overwhelming—No, transcendental. No one would underestimate her simply because she looked younger than others. After all, she had lived over three hundred years.
