The concealment methods of the Witch Coven are undoubtedly powerful and troublesome.
After all, they are believers of the Goddess of Night, and under such a faction, even without the aid of a High Priestess, they possess strong hiding and counter-detection abilities.
Moreover, in the darkness of night, their stealth capabilities are further enhanced.
Within the Witch Coven, the Goddess of Night is actually called by an even more intimate name—the Lady of the Night.
Among what she passed down, the most useful was not some dark curse spell, but rather a concealment technique called the Veil of Night.
At night, the ladies wear their unique Veil of Night, and as they walk through the darkness, they truly merge with the night itself.
That’s why, when Sylvia and Lady Catherine—both Domain Transcendents—were confronting each other, Zora still dared to observe from a hundred meters away.
The Veil of Night was her trump card for acting as she pleased at night.
So, is the Veil of Night truly invincible in the darkness?
It can be considered unblockable, but not invincible.
Rosetta slowly walked out of the portal.
Following the location given by Lady Catherine, she used the teleportation tool left by Sylvia to arrive directly at the Duke of Kelden’s domain.
Magic flowed through her entire body, and Rosetta’s Stigmata of Justice gradually began to manifest.
Normally, within about a hundred meters around Rosetta, a ring of ‘Aura of Justice’ would encircle her, weakening all dark creatures within the range to varying degrees, while her Holy Key Knights would receive numerous blessings and protections.
This was the true reason for the Saint Key Knight Order’s undefeated record.
It wasn’t just that their own abilities far exceeded others, but Rosetta’s powerful amplification allowed the Saint Key Knights to gather strength like sand forming a tower.
When Domain Transcendents encountered them, they didn’t even need Rosetta to act—escape was their only option.
Now, Rosetta was alone.
There were no Holy Key Knights charging by her side, but for a mere witch, she was more than enough.
As for why Rosetta was chosen instead of Sylvia herself, it was because, when dealing with witches, Rosetta was the true professional.
The Veil of Night allowed them to blend into darkness, but what Rosetta could do was simply disperse the darkness, leaving them nowhere to hide.
The Aura of Justice, amplified by Rosetta’s magic, kept expanding—now, it was nearly a square kilometer in area.
Yet Rosetta’s face didn’t change at all under such a magical output.
After reaching the level of a Domain Transcendent, her magic reserves could practically be compared to an ocean.
As long as she didn’t use particularly exaggerated forbidden techniques, it was hard to run out.
With her hand on the hilt of her knight’s sword, Rosetta walked slowly across the Kelden territory, not letting a single inch escape her notice.

On the other side.
Zora tried several times to sit up, but failed each time, finally collapsing powerlessly on Roman’s chest and letting out a defeated sigh.
Just now, she had tried all kinds of foreplay, licking Roman from top to bottom.
Seeing Roman’s desire growing stronger, it was at the final moment—when it was her turn to take the lead—that she faltered.
Frustrated, Zora could only use the Dream Steed to control Roman and carry him away, planning to deal with everything else later.
According to her original idea, she would use Dream Steed during her union with Roman, imprinting an unparalleled bond deep into his soul, so that he would never want to leave her for the rest of his life.
Sigh…
Magic flowed through every circuit in her body as Zora slowly placed her hands on Roman’s forehead.
Invisible mental waves spread across Roman, and Zora closed her eyes, quietly savoring the feeling of spiritual connection.
If it were someone else, she would’ve already used Dream Steed to turn them into a docile puppet, but for Roman, she couldn’t use such methods.
After all, a compliant Saint Son was much more useful than an obedient fool who did whatever he was told.
Therefore, she had to make spiritual contact herself, filling the gaps with her own emotions and memories, injecting what she wanted him to know.
Zora is the lover I’ve cherished since childhood.
She had prepared countless such imprints for Roman to enjoy.
However, just as Zora was about to touch Roman’s sea of consciousness, she suddenly sensed a pure white wall blocking her way.
Tch.
Even if a Mid-rank Transcendent had a mental barrier, it would shatter before her in an instant.
Finally, as she was about to touch the wall of light—
Rosetta arrived.
“Zora, so it was you.”
The room’s door was blasted to dust by Rosetta’s surge of magic, sweeping toward Zora with overwhelming force.
What?!
Zora’s eyes widened.
Seeing Rosetta—a figure she considered a nightmare—her face instantly twisted in terror.
Rosetta coldly gazed at the unconscious Roman on the bed and at Zora, naked and straddling him, her noble expression growing uglier by the moment.
“Farewell.”
Rosetta said flatly.
The next second, she appeared before Zora, reached out, and grabbed her by the throat, lifting her into the air.
Zora, like a fish out of water, rolled her eyes and gradually lost consciousness.
Rosetta dropped Zora’s ‘corpse’, her face as grim as stone.
Again with this trick.
A few seconds later, the ‘corpse’ on the ground shrank into a palm-sized doll, while the real Zora had already escaped thousands of kilometers away.
A Substitute Doll—a life-saving artifact possessed by all high-ranking members of the Witch Coven.
She had intended to use the Stigmata of Justice to sever Zora’s connection and crush her directly, but Zora still managed to escape.
Rosetta took a deep breath and closed her eyes.
Turning around, she grabbed her cloak from memory and draped it over Roman, only opening her eyes again after making sure he was covered.
Roman’s flawless face and the pure white flower in his right eye appeared before her.
Rosetta marveled, then quickly calmed herself, forcing such improper thoughts from her mind.
“Your Highness.”
She called softly, purifying the lingering fragrance Roman had inhaled.
It was a while before Roman opened his eyes, but even then, his gaze remained dazed.
What a troublesome thing.
As Rosetta hesitated over whether to carry Roman away, Roman suddenly hugged her.
“Want.”
Roman rubbed his face against Rosetta’s cheek, his voice hazy with longing.
Rosetta jolted as if electrocuted, feeling the warm breath and the gentle, tender kiss on her face.
Startled, she pushed Roman away, even falling to the floor in her agitation.
A Domain Transcendent, frightened to the point of collapsing by a Mid-rank Transcendent.
Fortunately, no one else was present—otherwise, Rosetta’s image would have been utterly ruined.
“Please…Please regain your senses.”
Rosetta pressed down on Roman’s shoulders, preventing him from getting any closer.
Known as the Knight among Knights, Rosetta’s character was beyond reproach—the virtues of a Knight were perfectly embodied in her.
She held herself to the highest standards, but in the face of Roman’s embrace, she couldn’t help but feel her resolve waver.
