Chapter 145 - The Blind Sisters

Thomas and Sophie stayed silent in the tree, hidden above the clearing. Below them, Pooch crept toward the Blind Sisters four witches floating in a perfect square formation, black robes covered in cult markings, their feet never touching the ground.Sophie whispered, "Pooch should be making contact right now." Right on cue, Pooch stepped forward. One witch flew toward him. Another circled him like a vulture.Pooch bowed. "Blind Sisters… I bring an urgent message from Lucifer himself." The witches froze. "One witch said what happen to your eye". Another witch laughed loud and said "you got what you had coming to you Pooch if only I was the one who did that to you". All the witches laughed at pooch then another witch threw a glass vile at Pooch and it healed his eye back to normal.

Their hoods hid their faces completely. One stepped forward, voice old and cracked. "What did supreme Lucifer want?" Pooch opened his mouth to speak But it was too late.Thomas and Sophie dropped from the tree like eagles diving on prey.

Silent. Precise. Deadly. They landed on two of the witches instantly Thomas slit one throat clean, Sophie drove her blade through the back of the neck and crushed the spine."Just in case they get up," she whispered. In the same motion, they rushed the remaining two. But these witches were fast.They flew around them in circles, dodging every slash.

Sophie swung the witch dodged and laughed, a high‑pitched, cruel sound.Then one witch rose above them and threw a small glass vial down.It shattered at their feet.Thomas frowned. "What is "Sophie gasped. "I can't move."Thomas tried to lift his arm. "Ahhh I'm stuck!"The other witch flew straight at them, scythe glowing, laughing loudly as she dove towards the heroes .Thomas and Sophie fought to move, glued to the ground. Thomas flared up aura burning but the spell held him down.The witch was seconds away.Then BANG.Something slammed into her mid‑air, sending her crashing into the dirt Pooch.Thomas blinked. "Pooch headbutted the witch… good job, Pooch!"Pooch held his head. "The spell should wear off soon…"Moments later, the glue spell faded.

Thomas broke free and lunged for the last witch but she fled, flying into the sky. Sophie walked to the witch Pooch had crushed.

She was barely breathing. Sophie smirked. "Pooch… you probably broke her ribs. Good job." Pooch blushed. "Thank you, master."Thomas knelt beside the fallen witch. "What was that spell?" Pooch checked her robe, pulling out bottles. "The Blind Sisters make potions with special abilities." Pooch said, Sophie nodded. "We should take her. She might have information we need." Pooch grabbed the witch by the robe and kept searching. "More spells."Thomas picked up a small glass vial with green liquid. He stared at it."I should've known… anything is possible in this world."
