145 No Name
Selma Payne’s POV:
“I rarely had dreams since I was a child. Later, I learned from my mother’s notes that this is the side effect of the prophecy bloodline. Once a witch’s dream was prophesized, it must be a dream or an old dream.”
Dorothy said seriously.
“I suspect that this dream is a real incident. From the content, it points to Mullwica’s daughter.”
“So you were dreaming about the whole life of Mullwica’s daughter?” I asked in surprise.
“It was not exactly a lifetime,” Dorothy said, shaking her head. “Mullwica’s daughter didn’t die, nor did she die with the seal. At the last moment, she was probably pushed out by Mullwica’s soul.”
I mumbled, “This also explains why Master Mary couldn’t find the seal’s location. With Mullwica’s power, it’s easy to hide our tracks. What’s more, we have a powerful Eye of Insight.”
Dorothy said, “I think Mullwica’s Eye of Insight has lost its effectiveness. If it was still there, Mullwica should be able to see through Master Mary’s intentions easily. If someone were kind enough to help her solve the problem of the loosening seal, Mullwica wouldn’t have refused.”
“Is it because of the death of Mullwica’s physical body that the Eye of Insight lost its effect?”
“I don’t know, but I don’t think that’s why. The Eye of Insight is an ability that is bound to the soul. It can only disappear if the soul dissipates or reincarnates.”
“That means Mullwica’s soul is still in the Rocky Mountains? It’s not just her remaining magic power that’s suppressed and sealed.”
“I think so. At least in the dream, she didn’t seem to have dissipated.”
Dorothy closed her eyes as if she was not used to the light.
Only then did I realize that she could see.
“How are your eyes?” I carefully moved closer to take a look. “Can you see? Does it hurt? Are you tired?”
Dorothy smiled, indicating that she was okay. “It’s unexpectedly good. It’s as if I didn’t awaken the Eye of Insight, and Leviathan didn’t contaminate me.”
“We all know this is the purifying runes’ temporary effect. It can suppress the mutation very well, but the side effects of the Eye of Insight will only be temporary.”
Tracy had said that her eye function had been completely lost. The ability to see now was only a temporary positive effect of the purification runes. Only by solving the problem of the erosion of the Eye of Insight on the main body could Dorothy be at ease and observe the world through the Eye of Insight.
This meant that we didn’t have much time to wait.
Master Hayley was outside, reminding us that it was time for the inspection. Just as I was about to leave, Dorothy grabbed my sleeve and whispered, “There’s one more question. Did you notice? I only used the term ‘Mullwica’s daughter’ because this girl doesn’t have a name.”
“No name?” I frowned slightly. “Could it be that it didn’t come up in your dreams? ”
“Impossible,” Dorothy said firmly. “In the dream, I could observe Mullwica’s daughter’s thoughts. I could sense everything, but I couldn’t find her name. She only knew herself as ‘the Supreme Witch Mullwica’s daughter’. This is very abnormal. Everyone’s first understanding of themselves is their name. If she can’t remember it, it means she doesn’t have it. But why doesn’t the daughter of a supreme witch have a name?”
I understood Dorothy’s doubts. A powerful witch would never allow anyone to remove her daughter’s name. She had never given her daughter a name.
But why?
A name was the shortest spell in the world. Many ancient spells and runes were the names of some ancient gods, so the power of names was evident.
It was impossible that Mullwica didn’t understand this. What was the reason that she would rather weaken her daughter’s power than give her a name?
Some thoughts formed in my mind. I asked Dorothy, “What do you think?”
“I’m in the same boat as you,” Dorothy said.
“Because of her father!” we said in unison.
That was right. The most suspicious thing was the husband and father, who had never appeared in the dream. The two children of Mullwica’s didn’t have the same father, which meant that his daughter’s father wasn’t a timid and unfaithful man.
Mullwica’s unwillingness to mention him in front of her daughter meant that their relationship wasn’t good, and there might even be some enmity between them.
Was she unwilling to give her daughter a name because she wanted to avoid this man?
“Bloodline is a magical thing,” Dorothy said. “There are some special ways to trace the genealogy through the bloodline. With the correct incantation and a few drops of blood, a family tree will be drawn with blood.”
I followed Dorothy’s train of thought and came up with a possibility, “If that unknown father finds out his daughter’s name, he’ll be able to use the name as a spell to sense his daughter’s location. When that time comes, regardless of whether Mullwica wants to face her husband or hold a grudge against him, this meeting will be bad.”
