I Became a Witch in a World Full of Urban Legends

Chapter 45): Shall I Tell You a Story?

Chapter 45): Shall I Tell You a Story?

It was half an hour before Lu Yibei witnessed Gu Qianqian being dragged underground by the urban legend.

Jingyi Apartment.

Putting on the coat cursed by Mr Rabbit, Yibei stood in front of the mirror and checked herself out.

Her petite body was wrapped in a large red and white coat, and her long skirt hung down to her knees. It was as if a little girl had stolen her fathers coat.

I look cute!

An inexplicable sense of shame rose in her heart in an instant. She couldnt believe she was calling herself cute. She started to blush, causing the ambient temperature to rise rapidly.

The coat shifted uneasily, and Yibei apologised as she rubbed the coat gently. She took a deep breath before turning around and opening the guitar bag at the entrance.

She folded her hands together and prayed to the statue of Acala, the Immovable.

After transforming into a witch, her apparently slender arms were much stronger than expected. Before this, moving the statue would have been difficult, but now she can easily lift it with one hand.

Yibei has come into contact with too few urban legends, not exceeding ten, and five of them are in the room with her right now.

Hence, her gauge of power is very vague. She was worried she might not be able to defeat her target.

Plus, she didnt know how to conjure a fireball! And she was a fire witch!

How could a witch not be able to cast any spells?

Just to be on the safe side, she decided to bring the statue of Acala, the Immovable.

It was a Level D Psychic Item, so it should be able to help her out.

However,

How did Shui get his hands on this? Could he be a member of?

She decided to ask him later to find out. She held the statue under her arm with one hand and went out the door.

Coming to a straight road in the community, she stared ahead and let out a breath before running forward.

She ran faster and faster, and the scenery flew by in the corner of her eye. When her speed reached its peak, she slammed her foot on the ground, and her body flew towards the sky like a cannonball, with a little tail flame trailing behind her.

And just like a cannonball, she drew an arc in the sky and plunged into the man-made lake in the community.

In a few minutes, Yibei stopped a taxi at the intersection near the university.

Im in a hurry; take me to Linjiang Avenue.

The car started, and she sat in the back row as she hugged the statue of Acala, the Immovable. She looked out the window, and she could see her own reflection.

If what the mysterious girl said was true and that I might destroy the world in the future, would she have known that Shui was a member of the Night Division? Is that why she doesnt want me to come into contact with them?

Shui was the only person she was close to in this world.

If possible, she wants Shui to remain ignorant of her situation.

However, if the newspaper reports strange occurrences, then the Night Division would be alerted to them.

Ever since Yibei got on the taxi, the taxi driver kept watching her through the rearview mirror, hesitating to speak.

Little girl, where is your family? Did you have an argument with them?

Ah, she was stunned by the break in silence. No, Im alone. I just want to take my mind off some things.

Haha! the driver cheered. Its okay; you need a break from life sometimes. By the way, why are you going to Linjiang Avenue? It isnt a good place there. Rumour has it that there are a lot of urban legends there! I heard a man drowned because of them there, and he died smiling. The worst part was that, during the autopsy, his lungs were filled with mud and fish eggs!

Yibei gulped as she looked at the driver through the rearview mirror, and her brows furrowed.

Wait, you again?

Thats right. Its the same taxi driver who took the boy Yibei to Flowers and Sunshine Resort last time!

Are you scared? I made it up based on real events! he chuckled. Take it with a grain of salt.

Oh! I wasnt scared; in fact, I found it interesting! Let me tell you a story, too.

Oh! Please do; I run a talk show, so I need more material!

A long time ago, there was a fisherman and a woman. They gave birth to a daughter with naturally snow-white hair. Seeing her strange appearance, they were worried about their daughters future, so they arranged a marriage for her early on.

As time went by, they started to regret doing so as she became more and more beautiful, and soon they were unwilling to let their daughter marry into the family. They didnt know that their daughter had fallen in love with the fool. Soon, the fool died, and the engagement was dissolved.

On the day of his funeral, the daughter crept into his coffin and was buried with him. Staying in the dark and airtight coffin, she became very hungry.

Well, she had a good meal.

Haha! the driver laughed as he wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling that the taxi was becoming strangely hot. Looking in the rearview mirror, he could see a delicate face that was expressionless and lifeless, and his heart skipped a beat.

Thats interesting, he said weakly.

By the way, didnt you ask me why I was going to Linjiang Avenue? Im going home.

Screech!

Get out, please. If you dont get out, I-I-Ill call the police!

Are you sure? Ill pay you.

No. Get out now. Get out! the driver trembled.

The moment Yibei got out of the car, the taxi sped away.

Did I overdo it? Yibei wondered.

For some reason, she felt a little less hungry.
