Magic Wand, Witch Hat Dungeon, Key to Defeating the Quietus Cloud, and Prophecy of the Giant Witch’s Curve

The Jonquil Magic Ball that could already feel me and the princess writing down the correct answers said, “Good, Miss Vogel and Sir Wolken. The thorns and darkness of the corridor will disappear. The process for that will take a while. You can watch it now, too.”

“Then let’s go,” the princess said while carrying the Jonquil Magic Ball.

I followed the princess, and once we reached the top of the stairs, the princess and I witnessed what the Jonquil Magic Ball had said. A light seemed to shine and bounce off all the thorns of the corridor, and every time the light touched a thorn, the thorn disappeared and was pulled inward. The light continued to bounce and continued to eliminate the remaining thorns.

I commented, “It looks like the Magic Wand theorem is being implemented.”

“Is it really safe, Jonqi?” the princess asked when she saw that there were no more thorns left.

Jonquil Magic Ball assured, “Yup, yup, yup. This path is definitely safe. Let’s move forward.”

As the princess and I took another step, Jonquil Magic Ball told us what we would encounter next: “After the bend in the corridor, Miss Vogel and Mr. Wolken will find two magic wands on top of a hexagonal prism. Each is 26.042 centimeters long. Later, those wands will become the keys to open the rooms in this dungeon. Press the top of the wand with your thumbprint.”

The princess gave her appreciation: “Thank you for the guidance, Jonqi.”

Jonquil Magic Ball replied, “With pleasure. By the way, Miss Vogel and Mr. Wolken call me Jonqu and Jonqi, yes. I like that nickname.”

The princess and I turned our heads to various corners of the room. Meanwhile, Jonquil Magic Ball said, “Hopefully, Miss Vogel and Mr. Wolken can continue Mr. Warm’s work until it’s finished. Mr. Warm has provided his big shoulders to sit on; he has left all of this behind.”

At this time, we were in a very large circular room. It was about 65 meters high and about 130 meters in diameter. Jonqu called the room we saw the main room. Here, we saw much equipment available.

Jonqu guided us to the design section of this room. In this section, Jonqu showed the main computer along with various blueprints that Mr. Warm had made. Jonqu claimed, “This is the key to conquering the Quietus Cloud.”

Jonqu told us we must finish making the key to conquering the Quietus Cloud. The tool that Mr. Warm designed he named “Witch’s Broom.” The Witch's Broom is a tool consisting of three parts, namely (1) Gegen-kuki Shield, (2) SP 311 Rocket “The Candle,” and (3) SEE-SAW Satellite. According to Jonqu, Mr. Warm chose the name Witch's Broom because the design of the tool looked like an upside-down witch's broom.

Not only that, Jonqu also explained the predictions, or predictions, of what would happen if the Witch's Broom could penetrate the Quietus Cloud. Jonqu said, "I quote Mr. Warm: If the Witch's Broom bursts against the Quietus Cloud, then a giant Witch of Agnesi image will be created in the sky."

I enthusiastically expressed my belief, "We will definitely complete what Mr. Warm left behind."

The princess also emphasized something similar to my statement: "We will not waste Mr. Warm, who has given us his big shoulders to sit on."

After that, the princess and I made the next plan. The princess and I discussed our schedule and how we would take care of the work in this dungeon. I said, “I will cut down on activities other than work at the Five. It takes less than an hour from my house to this place. So I will be more active here. Meanwhile, the princess can’t leave her work at the family company, right?”

The princess said, “Yes, that’s true; I can’t help it. I will help as much as I can.” The princess also guaranteed that she would take care of the purchase of land around the ruins of the fortress as soon as possible: “It will probably be one hundred percent finished in the next few days.”

At that time, Jonqu did not forget to remind us, “Miss Volgen and Mr. Wolken must keep this a secret from anyone. We must be careful.”

After explaining many things about the rocket and the shield, Jonqu also told us other information about this dungeon. Jonqu guided us to display the dungeon's layout on the main computer screen.

“This dungeon looks like an upside-down witch’s hat,” the princess commented.

“That’s what Mr. Warm calls this dungeon, Miss Vogel, the Witch’s Hat dungeon,” Jonqu said.

Jonqu explained, “The entrance and exit to this dungeon aren’t just from the ruins of the castle. You can also use the access that will eventually lead you to the edge of the lake.”

(***)

The princess and I have come out of the Witch Hat dungeon. This time with our own eyes, we witnessed that this dungeon really has an entrance and exit near a lake called Lake Haras. This lake is about 500 meters from the ruins of the fortress.

I immediately dropped myself, stretched my legs, and sat on the grass by the lake.

The princess took out her cellphone, pressed a few times on the cellphone screen, and then contacted Sisy: "Sisy, I'm at the lake near the ruins of the fortress. I've shared my location. Bring my car and pull the Schonewolken car as well." After that, the princess also did the same movement as I; beside me, she sat on the grass.

I didn't talk to the princess; I was lost in thought and the fatigue that hit my body. I reminded myself: it's January 2nd at night; this year's perihelion hasn't arrived yet.

Yesterday, January 1st, in the morning, I was still in another country. Then I returned to the Federal Republic of Deutschtonia. Arriving in the city where I live and work, Hessestadt, I had time to sleep. Then I jogged in the afternoon, climbing the Raustrat hill. At that time, I learned the news of Mr. Warm's death. Then, with the Alleinbahn, I rushed to the Bavarian state police headquarters to give information. Then had dinner together at Auerbach's Sky Terrace.

Then on January 2nd in the morning, I headed to Gmina Lubnieiwce. Then met the princess there and returned to Deutschtonia. Then I had lunch at the Promenade restaurant. Then went to the Republic of Frankcia. After that, we headed to Wehingen and explored the Witch's Hat dungeon.

My daydream stopped when I heard the princess ask, "Polyops, you must be tired."

"Yes," I answered briefly.

The princess offered, "Let's find the nearest hotel in the nearest city from here."

I accepted the woman's invitation, "Come on."
