Crown of Thorns

Chapter 0 – PROLOGUE

Translator & editor : Cuties

A long long time ago in a faraway country there lived a witch. She was very evil. Just looking at the witch made from darkness was enough to send people shivering with fear. But the people in that country were very nice and kind, so they got along with her.

But the evil witch put a curse on those people. The peaceful and happy country was quickly enveloped in darkness and terrible monsters began to appear. The people fought back, but they couldn’t counter the power of a witch.

Eventually, the world became a bloodbath, and people groaned from fear and pain. The helpless king gathered the heroes of the country and ordered them to kill the witch.

“You can get rid of this misery as long as the witch dies!”

The warriors began to kill the witch. They stabbed her, burned her, put her in boiling oil, crucified her, strung her from the neck, and starved her for days, but the witch continuously survived.

They tried whatever method to kill the witch, but she was always revived and the warriors either left or died one by one over time. The witch’s curse still hasn’t been lifted and the monsters still hurt people.

The people who had been hunting the witch for such a long time belatedly realized.

“The witch is immortal!”

The wise king decided to confine the witch. He constructed a tower and meant to lock her up in there. Forever, until she dies. When the witch found out about it, she shrieked with evil laughter.

“Yes, lock me up forever! However, the curse will not be broken!”

The witch was eventually trapped in the tower, and the whole thing was surrounded by thorn vines to keep anyone from entering. The witch couldn’t escape either, but the monsters continued to appear and people kept dying as long as she lived on.

However, as the number of monsters gradually decreased, people took courage and fought against them. The country began to regain peace little by little. As time flew by, people forgot about the tower where the witch was trapped, but they still told stories about her.

“When the witch dies, the curse will be broken and no more monsters will appear.”

“If you don’t behave, I might send you to the witch. The witch is really scary and strong.”

The witch was trapped in a place that no one knew of, and she couldn’t escape until the curse was lifted, that is, until she died. Forever.

Then one day, a young warrior went to look for the witch.

“Witch! I will kill you and break the curse!”

The witch smiled at the warrior as if she were welcoming an old friend.

“Young warrior, so you have white hair. If it’s light then it can remove darkness.”

Light will set the darkness aside, and gift her with an eternal rest.

“My eternal rest has finally come to claim me.”

Said the witch to the warrior.

“Kill me.”

It’s enough now, kill me.
