Chapter 169

Aria’s POV

Four witches remained outside the circle, continuing their attack on Agnes, trying to keep her from interfering with the ritual.

A witch with short white hair sent ice shards flying at Agnes. Another witch, a man with a scarred face, sent a blast of red energy. A third witch created a whirlwind that attacked her from all sides.

Agnes’s body flickered violently. She was barely visible now, like a ghost. Her face was twisted in rage and desperation.

“No... no, you can’t...” she gasped.

The eight witches around the circle chanted louder, their voices rising together and their magic intensified.

Their magic burned brighter and brighter until it was almost painful to look at.

I could see Knox fighting from inside.
