"Alright, I'll find a way," he said helplessly.
The next day, Allen indeed returned with some Magic Gems and Magic Books. Although these items looked a bit worn, they were more than enough for me at this moment.
"Thank you, Allen," I said as I accepted the materials, while secretly calculating my own plans in my mind.
These gems and books could help me restore my magical power, but their greater purpose was to assist Allen in enhancing his strength.
After spending these few days together, I realized that although Allen was a Paladin, he wasn't as powerful as the stories depicted. His swordsmanship was decent, but his knowledge of magic was severely lacking.
"Since you've helped me so much, I should do something for you," I thought to myself.
Thus, I began to "study" those Magic Books while teaching Allen some useful magical knowledge.
"This magic circle can actually be drawn like this. It not only enhances your attack power but also defends against enemy spells," I explained while drawing the magic circle on the ground with my finger.
At first, Allen was skeptical of my magical knowledge, but after a few sessions of guidance, he gradually realized that what I was teaching him was not nonsense but genuinely useful.
"How... how do you know so much?" Allen asked in surprise.
"I told you, I've read many books about magic before," I deflected once again.
"Alright," Allen nodded and began to practice the magic I had taught him earnestly.
After a period of practice, Allen's strength had noticeably improved. He was no longer the downcast knight he once was; instead, he was gradually regaining his former glory.
During this time, I had absorbed a significant amount of Magic Gem power, and my magical energy was slowly recovering. Although I had not yet reached my peak, it was sufficient to handle some basic spells.
"It seems my plan is progressing smoothly," I thought to myself.
In the evening, Allen practiced the swordsmanship and magic I had taught him in the yard. He swung his sword with agility, and magic flowed through his hands with ease, completely shedding the sense of despair he once carried.
I sat under the eaves, watching Allen train, feeling a mix of emotions.
"You seem... to have changed a lot," I suddenly said.
"Really?" Allen paused his movements and looked at me.
"Yes, you no longer seem as downtrodden as before. You look more like a true Paladin now," I replied.
"That's all thanks to you," Allen smiled, his eyes filled with warmth.
"Why are you so kind to me?" I asked him suddenly.
"Because... I've realized that you're not as terrifying as the legends say," Allen said earnestly, looking at me. "You're kind and strong; you're different from other Dark Witches."
My heart skipped a beat, and I felt a bit uneasy.
"Don't forget, I am the Dark Witch, destined to bring about the world's destruction," I said deliberately.
"I don't believe it," Alan shook his head. "I trust what my eyes see; you wouldn't do something like that."
A strange feeling surged within me. I looked at Alan, my emotions becoming complicated.
I had initially thought I was only getting close to Alan to complete my mission, to use him. But now, I realized that I seemed to… actually have developed some feelings for him.
I liked his silly demeanor, his kindness and sense of justice, and I adored the gentle look in his eyes when he gazed at me.
"This is quite troublesome; it doesn't align with my script," I sighed inwardly.
However, I couldn't reveal my true thoughts just yet.
I had to follow the system's requirements and continue down my path as the Dark Witch.
But I would do it my way.
I would "deceive" Alan while helping him, all the while uncovering the truth of this world.
I wanted this world to understand that true darkness was not someone like me, the Dark Witch, but rather those hidden in the shadows—the real forces of evil.
