“So it’s you, Endor! I don’t think there are any old grudges between us, is there? Why are you causing problems at my place?” Stepping out from the vortex, Anderson immediately saw the old witch with a peculiar look. Unable to press down his anger, he roared, “Don’t you forget, this is the territory of the Zhentarim Association! You, the Northern Witches, have no right to show your arrogance here!”
Still holding onto her broom, the old witch let out a shivering laugh that sounded like the cries of a night owl. She looked at Anderson, who appeared to be ferocious in appearance but feeble in essence, with a disdainful expression, and said, “Zhentarim Association? Would they publicly drive off us, the Northern Witches, just because of your tiny little resource site?”
“Then why are you here today? Don’t tell me you’re here to be a guest?!” Anderson still roaring furiously, nevertheless, he had lowered his voice. He was facing at a Combat Witch from the Far Land of North, although he had the topographical advantages, if a fight really broke out between them, perhaps the chances of him winning would be slim.
Though these Northern Witches looked weak and ill, they were able to open up new worlds in the Land of Far North, a place with extreme cold temperature and harsh environment. They had a strong will and frightening approaches that no male Adept could ever compare with. Putting others aside and just talking about this Endor, she was sent to station at the Zhentarim region for merely seven years, before she had brought herself the famous title of ‘Poisonous Witch’.
According to rumors, once there was a wandering Adept who had recruited a group of bandits and robbed a company of traveling merchants sent by the Northern Witches, they also killed an Apprentice Witch who had followed the merchant. When this Endor heard the news, she struck immediately, and found that group of bandits just after half a day.
She didn’t charge into the group and slaughter everyone in her sight. She just sprinkled some poisonous stuff around their camp site. Virtually overnight, all the bandits, including the wandering Adept, were killed by the horrifying, deadly poison. Just with this warfare alone, this ferocious, tough and old witch from the Land of Far North had killed nearly three hundred men with her poison, causing her reputation of ‘Poisonous Witch’ reach to ultimate heights.
She was a Northern Witch, yet she had killed so many people in a region ruled by the Zhentarim Association. Her actions had immediately evoked a strong reaction from some Adept Families at the center region of Adept Continent. But with regards to this matter, after all, the old witch had the valid reason for seeking revenge for her disciple, hence, no matter how discontent those Adept Families were, they had no choice but acquiesce her action.
Therefore, whenever the name of this poisonous witch was mentioned, all the Adepts from center region of the continent would feel a headache. After all, in the center region of the continent controlled by the Zhentarim Association, there weren’t any major scale of invasions coming from demons, and the conditions of the natural environment were so much better comparing to the Land of Far North. As the result, most of the Adepts here had spent too much time carrying out magical experiments, which caused their combative abilities and approaches to recede. That was why they were not as ferocious and brutal as those Northern Witches.
