"I'm not a queen at all..."

Alyssa doesn't get it, why were the Witches calling her a queen? She doesn't recall to be part of a royal family or have a royal blood, something like that.

"How will we summon Witch Alisa, Pride?"

"Take her heart out, it is connected to the Wicked Aphrodisiac, she is merely a vessel."

When Witch Pride was about to take her heart away, her hand was cut off when someone has come to interfere them.

"I won't let you summon Witch Alisa!"

They turned around to see a blonde girl with pinkish eyes, she wears a sleeveless dress and a bloomer with a mantelet and skirt over it, along with gloves and plain leather shoes. She looks very cute and is probably around the same age as Alyssa.

A young girl...? she thought as she saw a girl standing over the rocks.

"AHHHH! MY HAND! It's cut off!"

Pride yelled as she held her wrist, the hand that was cut was bleeding on the floor. Blood trickled down her arm.

"How dare you, measly human! You'll pay."

Greed ran towards the human girl who has cut off Pride's hand, when she was about to attack, Witch Greed halted as she was cut into halves.

Everything happened to fast, one of the Witches has already died. It's body fell on the ground, lifelessly.

"W-What just...?" Alyssa was surprised to see one of the seven most powerful Witches, defeated.

Tears started to roll down Greed's cheeks as she began to berserk from seeing her fellow species, died in the hands of a human being.

"DIE!"

Alyssa could hear the anguish yells coming from the heartbroken Witch Greed, she sprinted towards the blonde and they began to fought for dominance.

They're both strong...my eyes can't keep a track on them. she thought.

The mysterious woman lunged Greed as the Witch kicked the little girl, though the blonde dodged. They continued to fight in a monstrous pace, Greed took a full head-on attack from the human girl as she was sent flying from the boulders.

"S-So strong..." Alyssa mumbled as the blonde girl sprinted towards where the Witch landed.

Can I also be strong like her? she thought, amazed.

When the blonde reached the ground, she was surprised as she wasn't able to find Greed's body. Realization hit her as she punched the rocks.

Witch Greed successfully escaped.

"That damn wench!" the girl growled as she failed to strangle a Witch who was in it's last legs.

Alyssa slowly risen from the ground as she walked towards the blonde.

"Um...thank you for saving me." she thanked the blonde.

"I don't remember doing something to receive your thanks, not after I let Greed escaped!" she hissed.

Alyssa flinched from her harsh tone, she was indeed had a rage against the Witches. Then the blonde turned around as she saw the girl that she saved earlier, frightened.

"Oh, I'm sorry...pardon me, I was only blowing off steam." she said, reverting back to her female self.

"It's fine, you saved me after all." Alyssa answered.

"Are you traveling by yourself?" she changed the topic.

"No, I was with two guys, who are the same age as us. Though I let them run away as I fought the Witches alone." the pink head stated.

"Do you honestly think that you could defeat the two of them? Let alone one of them?" the blonde raised an delicate eyebrow, questioned.

"Yes, I can. Because I have defeat one before—Witch Sloth."

The blonde was indeed taken back by this, she has to admit that she underestimated her, her lips curved in a lopsided smile.

"Oh? You defeated one of the seven Witches? Impressive. You'll be coming with me then. We'll eradicate the rest of them." she said as she grabbed Alyssa's wrist.

"I-I can't! I'm on a mission with my friends."

"Who left you alone? You can just abandon the mission like they abandoned you."

Her words were harsh, but there was something wrong with her statement as Alyssa staged a protest.

"They didn't left me alone. I let them get away so I could beat the Witches alone."

"If they're truly your friends, they wouldn't leave you no matter how much you insisted them to leave."

Alyssa was startled by that, she was surprised by the blonde, does she have trust issues with friends or something?

"That's because they truly are my friends so they listened to me and trust on me!" she answered.

The blonde resigned, she doesn't know how to counter such a statement like that, she gave up on the debate.

"Alright, alright. Have it your way." she stated.

"And before you could judge someone else's friends, please make sure you have friends too." Alyssa added.

"Why you..." the blonde raised her hand and was about to smack her, lightly, when they heard a voice from afar.

"ALYSSA!!!"

They turned around to see two figures closing in, running in they're full speed as they reached them.

"Gon! Killua! I told you guys to get away." Alyssa stated.

"Wait...so they are the ones who you let run away?!" the blonde asked, she twitched her eye, annoyed.

"Yeah, they're my friends." she answered.

Then the blonde made an eye contact with the two boys, suddenly, they both yelled in surprised.

"BISKY?!"

Alysaa turned to Gon and Killua with confusion written on her face. "You know her?"

"Of course—she's the one who trained us with her mountain of knowledge that she had for forty years!" Gon explained.

"Oh, I see....Wait, FORTY YEARS?!" Alyssa asked, confused.

"Yeah, you heard it right, she's an old hag." Killua nonchalantly said.

Suddenly, the blonde that they called 'Bisky' smacked him on the head.

"B-But...she looks like the same age as us." Alyssa stated, cannot believe it.

She stared at the blonde girl in front of her, confused and was also amazed in the same time.

"Just who are you?" she asked.

"Oh, I haven't introduced myself. My name is Bisky Krueger, I'm pro hunter who is hunting Witches right now. What's your name?"

"My name is Alyssa..."

Bisky waited for her to say her last name as the girl realized this and added the last name that the boys gave her.

"It's Alyssa, Alyssa Camellia." she told her.

"It's nice to meet someone as cute as you, Alyssa-chan!" Bisky cheered.

"Yes, me too, Bisky-san." Alyssa replied while smiling timidly.

"What are you doing here anyways?!" Killua asked, separating the two of them away.

"Oh, I'm just here to get rid of the Witches around the place, when you boys left your friend all alone!"

Bisky grabbed hold of their ears and yanked it, Gon and Killua whined in pain as she was scolding them.

"And you two call yourselves as a man?!" she shouted.

"W-We're sorry..." Gon cried, whining, trying to break free.

"Let go!" Killua growled, he was also trying to break free.

"Um...it's fine, Bisky-san. It's not their fault—I told them to leave anyways, it's my fault that I'm weak." Alyssa held her hands, defending the boys.

Bisky lets go of their ears as she rubbed her temples, sighing, completely displeased.

"Gon, Killua, I never taught you two to leave a battle before it even started, right? You even left a girl, you two should've had stayed and fought against the Witches together..."

"Like I said Bisky-san, it's fine, I'm the one to blame here...so please don't scold them." Alyssa stated.

Bisky sighed. "You sure like to spoil these two, don't you? What are you—they're big sister?"

"N-No, it's nothing like that..." she said as the blonde sighed for the umpteenth time.

"You three, come with me, we'll start training from square one." Bisky said as she began to walk.

"W-We can't, Bisky-san...we're still in the middle of a mission—"

"OSU!"

Alyssa cannot believe that the boys followed her orders, "Gon? Killua? Why? We still have a mission..."

"We know that, Alyssa, but I want to start training so I could be strong enough to defeat the Witches." Gon told her, walking behind Bisky's back.

"Sorry, but the mission will be postponed for awhile. I ended up agreeing with Gon this time...I also wanted to be strong enough to defeat the Witches, too." Killua added.

"W-Wait...Bisky-san, you said three right? Does that mean...?"

"Yeah, you'll be coming with us and join the training, Alyssa."

"What? Me too?!"
