Miss Witch, it's time to clean up the entries

Chapter 197 Hell Witch Ellie ( words updated, please subscribe)

Although the Hell Witch Ellie is young, she is already in the top three in the Empire Witch Rankings, and her strength is said to be even higher than Sophie.

But that was before. The evolved Sophie would not necessarily lose to the Hell Witch Ellie.

Ellie started serving at the age of 10 and served as a guardian witch in Gaojun Territory. Her service ended a month ago and she was recalled to the royal capital.

After various tests, there was nothing abnormal about her mental and physical condition. She was a rare witch who could enjoy a retired life, provided that she could never use magic again, lived a peaceful life for 5 years, and then was euthanized at the age of 20.

During these five years, Ellie will enjoy aristocratic treatment equivalent to that of a baron. Whatever she wants, except love and marriage, will be satisfied. Whatever she wants to eat, she can eat it. No matter where she wants to go in the empire, she will be allowed.

But just half an hour ago, Ellie was urgently summoned because of the sudden blasphemous insect incident. The director of the Guardian Bureau did not force her to perform this task, but let her make her own choice.

First, according to the original plan, I would leave the capital after the Harvest Festival and enjoy life for five years.

Second, accept the mission, restrict the blasphemous insects, and protect the royal capital.

Director Ophelia also reminded Ellie that if she used the Hell's Gate again, she would be on the verge of losing control.

Witches who acquire the "On the Verge of Losing Control" entry will lose their freedom and be imprisoned in the Red Tower of the Guardian Bureau until they are executed.

But Ellie still chose the second option without hesitation, to protect the royal capital.

Moreover, Ellie felt relieved by this choice.

She finally didn't have to worry about how to get through these long five years without any tasks.

Ellie is like a person who has been imprisoned in a prison and has long been out of touch with life in the outside world. She cannot adapt to the life of ordinary people at all, and she does not have any ordinary friends.

She was afraid of living an ordinary life, and she could do nothing but guard.

Apart from fighting, she has no hobbies and even no desire for delicious food.

But for some reason, just when Li En invited her to dinner, she suddenly felt moved.

Maybe it was because she had never seen such a handsome boy, maybe it was because no one had ever asked her out for dinner, or maybe it was because she knew she was about to die.

Ellie, who always followed the rules, nodded slightly, then followed the cursing puppet witch Cameron away.

They have to go back to the Security Bureau to report.

Li En is going back to Grand Duke Moria to ask about his grandfather's recent situation.

For some reason, seeing Ellie reminded Li En of Sophie.

But they are obviously different.

Sophie already has hobbies. She likes to keep pets, read books, and watch herself forging iron. She has begun to love life.

Ellie is a confused witch. She feels that death is her only destination. Apart from guarding and dying, she doesn't know what else she can do.

Witches like Ellie can save many people, but they cannot save themselves.

Li En actually didn't want to expose his abilities in the royal capital. He needed to convince Ellie to accompany him to leave the royal capital.

This way, she could be rescued in Green Shade Territory, and at least her life wouldn't be frozen at the age of 15 when she hadn't yet blossomed.

This was also to thank Ellie for her help, as she could have refused the task.

While his thoughts were in a state of flux, he had already returned to Grand Duke Moria.

Grand Duke Moria has returned to the carriage and is waiting for Li En.

He knew that it was Li En who invited the witch in time, and was quite satisfied with his ability to perform on the spot, but at the same time he was also worried about his and Kelly's situation.

"Where's Kelly?"

"Aunt is in the tower. Dorothy helped delay her aging. We can only save her if we find her caregiver within a month."

Li En said apologetically, "This matter is mainly my fault."

"How are you doing?"

Grand Duke Moria only knew that Li En was a six-star knight, but he didn't know that Li En was a blood knight. Theoretically, only a seven-star order knight with a certain divinity could be immune to the infection of the blasphemous worm.

“I am not infected.”

Li En said truthfully.

Grand Duke Moria breathed a sigh of relief.

He never lost his two closest relatives at the first opportunity.

"You can't be blamed for what happened to Kelly. It was me who didn't refuse her from coming with me."

Grand Duke Moria felt that he had overestimated the power of the Seven-Star Order Knights, which led to such a tragedy.

Once infected by the blasphemous worm, it is basically a contract with death. It is difficult to survive and you may even turn into a monster.

Unless the breeder of the blasphemous worm is found.

Normally, only one Blasphemy Worm will appear in a city.

Because the breeder of the blasphemous worm must use the body and soul as nourishment to cultivate the blasphemous worm. When the host dies, the blasphemous worm will follow suit and then release pollution, causing disaster to the entire city and even the entire kingdom.

But Duke Giles, the man who possessed the Sequence 4 Split Seal, made an exception. He split himself into countless copies by hand, and then raised the blasphemous worm in his clone. Once the clone died, it would cause a disaster.

Even if Bard Manor was restricted, the safety of the royal capital could not be guaranteed.

No one knows whether Duke Giles has created more clones and raised more blasphemous insects.

This is definitely the biggest crisis that the royal capital, Yalong City, has ever faced.

Even a Sequence 1 Guardian Shield cannot protect against disasters occurring within.

Grand Duke Moria had to report this matter to his superiors, so he could not go to the tower to visit his daughter Kelly right away.

Fortunately, Dorothy helped delay Kelly's transformation, so he didn't have to say goodbye to his daughter.

It seems that I owe this future granddaughter-in-law a favor again.

You can't be so mean to Old Hall anymore.

The carriage arrived at the King's District and entered the King's Palace on No. 1 Street.

Ophelia, the director of the Guardian Bureau, was already in Augulas' study, reporting on what the two witches had done to Bard Manor.

So Augulas was not surprised when he saw Grand Duke Moria and Li En.

"Prime Minister, what exactly is going on here?"

Auguras looked at Grand Duke Moria and asked.

Grand Duke Moria turned his gaze to Li En and said, "You should make the statement to His Majesty the King."

"Okay, Grandpa."

Li En nodded slightly, saluted King Augulas, and said in a calm tone,

"The story begins with the disappearance of Viscount Benjamin's daughter. This morning, Viscount Benjamin came to me and told me his daughter was missing... Later, we found the missing Miss Benjamin. She was imprisoned in Mason Manor along with many other girls. We rescued the girls and learned from the human trafficker Jamie that the mastermind behind this incident was Duke Giles, who was hiding in Bard Manor. Bard Manor was originally my aunt's property, so we decided to go and investigate... Unexpectedly, all the servants in the manor were actually Duke Giles's clones. They committed suicide collectively, releasing the blasphemous worms in their bodies. Grandpa sealed off the scene in time, and I went out to seek help."

Lee En omitted the fact that Kelly was also involved to avoid unnecessary complications.

Grand Duke Moria didn't care about concealing such details because Li En told the truth about the whole thing.

Both Augustus and Ophelia were extremely surprised.

"Duke Giles is not dead?"

"Yes, not only is he not dead, he also has the strange ability to split himself into two. He is very troublesome."

Li En said.

"How can you be sure that those servants are the incarnations of Duke Giles?"

Auguras asked suspiciously.

"It wasn't me who confirmed it, it was Grandpa who confirmed it."

Li En said.

Grand Duke Moria nodded.
"I've confirmed that they are Duke Giles's clones. I now suspect that Duke Giles isn't just hiding in Bard Manor. There are probably many more of them in the capital. We must control them and, ideally, find the real one."

"If this is true, the capital will be plunged into an unprecedented crisis."

Ophelia frowned.

The female director of the Guardian Bureau was Auglas's cousin. She possessed long, smooth black hair and a beautiful face, seemingly ageless and well-maintained. While not a witch, she was a highly skilled believer, skilled in spiritual soothing and guiding thoughts.

The witches can work diligently in her hands, which is inseparable from her ability.

"Then find them all immediately, before the Harvest Festival."

Augustus keenly realized that this incident would greatly affect his coronation ceremony.

Considering that Grand Duke Moria, the Prime Minister of the Empire, also had to be responsible for his own coronation ceremony, Augulas decided to hand over this very important matter to Li En.

"Lean Moriah, you will be responsible for investigating this matter. Find the resurrected Duke Giles, no matter how many clones he has. Ophelia will assist you."

"As you command, Your Majesty the King."

Even if the king had not given such an order, Li En knew that he had already been involved and it was impossible for him to remain unscathed.

Originally, this conspiracy was aimed at him and August.

After the secular trial, he and Augulas were tied to the same warship.

"If you need anything, go to Ophelia. The witches will assist you fully."

Augulas also wanted to test the strength of his teammates. He hoped that Li En would not let him down and at least show the same strength as Grand Duke Moria when he was young.

"As you command, Your Majesty."

Li En and the director of the Security Bureau said at the same time.

Night had fallen when he left the palace.

Yalong City is brightly lit, and the colorful magic lights have caught up with the colors of neon lights.

But blind Li En couldn't see it. The incident of the blasphemous worm reminded Li En that he couldn't remain blind forever.

If we can only see the entries, the world will be incomplete, and it may even lead to the inability to confirm the situation immediately when a crisis occurs.

He needs a gamble to win back his eyesight.

Grand Duke Moria was left in the palace and it would probably be very late before he could leave.

"Leen Moriah, do you want to go back to the Duke's Mansion, or go with me to the Guardian Bureau?"

Ophelia didn't think they had time to rest because the matter was quite tricky.

"Guardian Bureau, thank you."

Li En said politely.

Although the female director cannot be seen, her entry is very conspicuous and one can basically get a glimpse of her personality from the entry: she is a workaholic and petty.

Last time she invited me to be a special consultant, but I didn't respond or visit the Guardian Bureau. She must have been brooding over it.

If he refused to go to the Guardian Bureau again, she might cause him trouble in his future actions.

"Ah."

Li En got on Ophelia's carriage and bumped into something because Ophelia's carriage was a specially made pumpkin carriage with new patterns on the stairs, which was quite unfriendly to the blind.

Ophelia reached out her hand in time to support Li En, and only after confirming that he was indeed blind did she have the special ladder removed with satisfaction.

Tsk, this woman.

Li En sat opposite Ophelia, frowning all the time.

"Leen Moriah, I actually have some questions for you. Since we will be colleagues in the future, I hope you can answer me truthfully. In return, I will also answer some of your questions."

The female director spoke a little harshly, but was quite fair.

"Yes, Chief Ophelia, if you please."

"Sophie Omar has been serving in the Green Shade Territory for a long time. How does she avoid losing control?"

As expected, Ophelia's biggest concern was the witch's loss of control.

She had always wanted to be a consultant to the Witch Guardian Bureau, perhaps to find out this reason.

"Director Ophelia, just from Dorothy's case, we can see that all witches in this world are actually different from each other. The same is true for Sophie. Perhaps she is born with greater durability than other witches, so she hasn't lost control yet. I am only her lord, and I don't know the details. I can only tell you that although Green Shade Territory is remote, it is not too dangerous. The monsters in the Golden Forest are also very weak, otherwise we wouldn't have recaptured it. Sophie has had an easier time than other witches over the years."

Li En said in a calm tone.

He possesses the [Evil God Status], and even Ophelia, who is skilled in mental magic, cannot sense that he is lying.

This is the suppression of personality.

Ophelia had never been to the Green Shade Territory. She only knew that it was a barren place after all, but it was unexpectedly a place with a large number of soldiers. Perhaps it was true as Li En said, Sophie had not lost control because she used less magic power.

This is normal, otherwise how could a witch not lose control?

Dorothy is an exception, not the general case.

Ophelia knew that Dorothy had countless magical channels in her body, but ordinary witches only had one.

Sophie had been tested as a child; she couldn't be special.

Ophelia was disappointed with the answer, but at the same time she felt it was reasonable.

"Leen Moriah, I have another question."

"Excuse me."

"Can you summon an angel at any time?"

When asking this question, the proud Ophelia deliberately used a respectful title.

She knew that this issue was related to the stability of Augustus's regime.

Li En answered without hesitation, "No one can summon an angel at any time. It was just a chance success. Perhaps it was the angel's way of repaying me. He didn't want to see me die."

"Thank you."

Ophelia was neither satisfied nor disappointed with the answer. She leaned back in her chair, closed her eyes, and stopped communicating with Li En.

Until the carriage arrived at the Guardian Bureau.

The Guardian Bureau is composed of a series of towering towers that reach the sky. It is a typical Gothic architectural style, cold and depressing.

Ophelia and Li En got off the carriage together and walked into the Guardian Bureau.

The place is filled with female voices. They are young and energetic, the most beautiful and powerful group of people in the empire. They are all witches.

"Katie, where will you be assigned this time?"

"I don't know, but I think it's most likely the north."

“Oh, I love the South, I wish I were assigned to the South.”

"I want to stay in the capital."

"Don't be ridiculous. Only outstanding witches who rank in the top 10 in the exam are qualified to stay in the royal capital."

A group of witches in the ivory tower discussed their future, their voices full of longing and yearning for the outside world.

Unlike the witches who were recalled after their terms expired, they had not yet experienced fear and despair, and were only excited about becoming heroes.

When Li En passed by them, the witches stopped and watched curiously.

"The director brought back a man."

"Oh, yes, it's a man. This is the first time I've seen a man inside the Guardian Bureau."

"Who is he?"

Hearing their conversation, Li En was sure that the witches didn't read newspapers.

Otherwise they would know who they are.

Ophelia brought Li En to the office and explained calmly, "Before leaving the Guardian Bureau, witches are basically not exposed to information from the outside world. They eat, study, and receive psychological counseling here. Only after passing the exam will they be assigned to various territories as guardians."

Ophelia paused. "If you're willing to work here, you can spend more time with them. They seem to like you very much."

"Thank you, but we have more important things to do right now. Finding Duke Giles, right?"

"Yes, it is indeed a very important matter."

As long as it is not a clear rejection, Ophelia will not be too angry. She is a person who can distinguish between priorities.

The secretary sorted out all the information about Baron Giles for Ophelia and sent it to the office.

Ophelia flipped through the documents casually and said to the secretary,
"Summarize and tell Lord Li En the information about Baron Giles."

Yes, they can't expect a blind person to look through the information.

The secretary nodded slightly and said in a gentle voice,
"Duke Giles, the only son of Thibaud IV, Duke of Pablo, Duke of Bois, and Duke of Champagne. Giles was known for being a romantic, and was once known to have forcibly taken away his betrothed bride, who later became his mistress rather than marry him...

"His grandfather was once the King of the Kingdom of Harold. The Harold Palace worshipped the false god, the Eye of Doom, and had an irreconcilable conflict with the Holy Empire. A war broke out in Stanley, and Harold was eventually conquered by the Holy Empire. The Giles family surrendered, and the survivors changed their faith. The family became vassal of the Auglax family. By the time of Duke Giles' generation, the territory had dwindled to less than one-fifth of its original size, and the Knights had been reduced to 300 men...

"... He was sentenced to beheading on July 10st, 7 years ago, for heresy. After his death, 21 members of the Duke's family were also sentenced to hanging, including his three sons, six daughters, and five illegitimate children, for protecting heresy. Only one mistress, Nina Owen, survived."

After listening to the secretary's description, Li En asked,

"Why did Nina Owen survive?"

The secretary looked at Ophelia, who nodded slightly before she said,
"Because Nina Owen volunteered to be a witness and accuse Duke Giles of his crimes, and at that time she had become Randall's mistress. Randall is now His Holiness the Pope."

Randall's mistress?

How could Randall have a mistress? He's a guy who gets allergic to women.

Li En narrowed his eyes and made a bold guess.

Duke Giles did not die, it was his clone who died, and his real body was actually Nina Owen. Nina Owen was rescued by Randall and later helped Randall overthrow the Pope's rule, so the two had a vested interest.

Under normal circumstances, Li En would not have thought that Duke Giles was a woman, but the servants in Bard Manor were both male and female, all of whom were incarnations of Duke Giles, so if his real gender was a female, it would not be unacceptable.

"I need to know all the information about Nina Owen."

Li En said.

Ophelia nodded and said, "Go, help Master Li En find the information he needs. Also, call Cameron. Master Li En needs an assistant."

Considering that Li En is blind, Ophelia decides to find a pair of "eyes" for him.

The director's secretary certainly cannot lend it to him at any time, as the secretary still has to help him handle daily affairs.

When it comes to the blasphemous worm, ordinary people cannot be allowed to be Li En's assistants.

The puppet witch Cameron had been involved in this case before and was the most suitable candidate.

As for the Hell Witch Ellie, she can only wait for the final execution in the Red Tower of the Guardian Bureau.

Of course, Ophelia would not be so unkind as to give her three days to say goodbye to the past.

During these three days, whatever Ellie wanted to do, as long as it was not harmful to the kingdom, she would allow it. "Can I get a different assistant?"

Lee En asked.

Ophelia raised her eyebrows slightly, "Do you have a suitable candidate?"

"Yes, Hell Witch Ellie is very good. I have seen her strength."

Li En said.

Ophelia was slightly stunned. She lowered her head and sighed, "You should find someone else. Ellie won't be taking any more missions for a while."

"But this mission is one she hasn't completed yet. Are you sure she won't accept it?"

Lee En asked.

Ophelia frowned. "Lord Li En, we should all be considerate of witches. Their lives are short, and they can't spend all their time on missions."

"If you really thought so, you wouldn't have chosen her to participate in this case."

Li En said in a calm tone.

Ophelia admitted that the Hell Witch Ellie was the best candidate at the time, and no one could restrain the blasphemous worm like her.

"Don't worry, I won't let her use magic anymore. She just needs to be my eyes and a cane."

Li En said.

"I need to ask her opinion."

Ophelia whispered.

She knows how cold-hearted she is. Her existence is actually to constantly exploit the potential of the witches and brainwash them, making them the purest guardians, letting them burn their lives to protect humanity without regrets.

But after spending so much time with the witches and seeing the children who had not yet grown up, she began to feel pity for them.

Many of these children do not live to reach adulthood.

The slight guilt in Ophelia's heart accumulated over time and became a mental illness.

She had to work continuously, turning herself into a spinning top, suggesting that she, like the witches, was a guardian of mankind, but with different responsibilities. Only then could she continue to greet the sunrise every day, offer white roses in front of each tombstone with peace of mind, and avoid being awakened by nightmares at night.

Shortly after Dorothy was born, Ophelia even made a request to the wise men, hoping that they would conduct in-depth research on Dorothy and find a way to prolong the witch's life, which offended Earl Hall.

But Ophelia didn't care.

Compared to Dorothy, Ophelia felt that the fate of all witches was more worthy of human exploration and research.

Unfortunately, after studying Dorothy's blood samples, the wise men still could not find a way to delay the witch's loss of control and increase her lifespan.

Dorothy is an exception, like God's most successful work, while the other witches are failures.

Even so, Dorothy was well protected by Earl Hall and she never participated in any actions or missions of the Guardian Bureau.

Li En soon received news that Ellie agreed.

Ellie will be Li En's assistant for the last three days.

Just as Ophelia taught her, she hoped to burn the light and heat in the last moment of her life.

Ophelia was not surprised by this result. This was the most outstanding witch she had ever trained.

It's like a program that only says "guard".

She had no other ideas.

Empty head.

Like a blank sheet of paper.

Ellie's life is destined not to be colorful.

She is the epitome of countless witches.

She would be stuck in her best 15 years and never move forward.

Humans will look at her tombstone in the cemetery, but they will never stand by her side and face the terrible future with her.

People will praise her past contributions and greatness, but they will never want to become someone like her.

"Lord Li En."

Ellie did not forget her date with Li En in the evening, but she did not wear a beautiful dress, she just changed into a cloak.

"Good evening, Miss Ellie. Are you ready to go out with me?"

Lee En asked.

Ellie nodded slightly and followed Li En's footsteps.

Li En did not stay in the Guardian Bureau for long. The archives of that era were very incomplete. Even in the royal capital, it would take a lot of time to search for the archives of an ordinary person in the Guardian Bureau. So Li En decided to wait for the director's secretary to find Nina Owen's information and then send it directly to the Duke's Mansion.

And he can fulfill his promise and have dinner with the witch Miss Ellie.

Li En did not choose to take Ellie home, but instead found a random restaurant in Queens for dinner.

It was the first time that Ellie was invited to a restaurant by a man for dinner. She seemed a little restrained. Fortunately, Li En couldn't see because he was blind.

Ellie likes to be with blind people because her embarrassment won't be noticed.

He can't even recognize all the tableware in high-end restaurants.

Ellie felt that she was not a noble after all, but just a witch.

Her little face turned a little red, and she hesitated between the knife and fork, having difficulty making a decision.

Looking at the rich food on the table, she even felt that this was not a date, but torture.

Why couldn't she just eat some brown bread and some energy bars, which would save her time and allow her to go back to patrolling the walls.

Oh, no, she is no longer in the territory, she doesn't need to guard the high walls.

She is currently helping a man named Lee En Moriah investigate the case of the "Blasphemy Worm".

Ellie took a deep breath, exhaled shallowly, and finally chose a steak knife to cut the grilled lamb chops.

click-

Because of excessive force, the plate containing the lamb chops was cut in half, making a crisp sound.

Ellie's face turned even redder. She put on her hood and covered her face, afraid that other people in the restaurant would see her.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she realized no one was paying any attention to her.

She didn't know that the blind man opposite her, although he couldn't see anything, had extremely sharp hearing and had already noticed her embarrassment.

To avoid embarrassing Ellie, Li En also used a steak knife to cut the lamb chops, cut open the plate, and pretended nothing happened.

Ellie looked at Li En in surprise, and then reminded him in a very subtle voice,

"Master Li En, your plate is broken."

"Oh, sorry, this is an embarrassing thing that happens to a blind person all the time. I hope you won't tell anyone else."

"I'll keep it a secret for you, I promise."

Ellie nodded vigorously and responded quietly.

She suddenly found it very easy to get along with Li En.

It seems she's not the only one who's clumsy.

After finishing dinner with Ellie, Li En and Ellie walked on Queen's Road.

This street is very prosperous, but it's a pity that one can't see it and the other lacks curiosity.

Ellie felt that any street was the same, just a place where humans lived.

"Ellie, can you help me up?"

Li En said.

Ellie nodded slightly and supported Li En, but she still kindly reminded him,
"Master Li En, you shouldn't have chosen me as your assistant."

"why?"

"Because I only have three days left. I will soon lose control. Before I lose control, I will be sent to the guillotine. I have already chosen a cemetery for myself. If you are willing to visit me after my death, I can tell you the address."

Because Ellie gets along well with Li En, she is willing to talk more.

But if these few words caused Li En to start to fear her and stay away from her like everyone else, she would have no choice but to accept it.

This is the fate of the witch, to be both a guardian and a feared being.

"Only three days?"

Li En frowned slightly. He had wanted to wait until Catherine's trial was over, take Ellie away, and return to Green Shade Territory to clean up, but now it seems that he may not be able to wait until that time.

"Yes, it's only three days, but I'm glad you chose me because these three days will be very meaningful."

There was determination in Ellie's eyes.

"You really shouldn't be called the Hell Witch."

Li En said suddenly.

"why?"

Ellie looked at Li En in confusion.

"You should be called the Witch of Heaven, for you possess an exceedingly pure heart."

Li En said.

Ellie's cheeks turned slightly red. For some reason, she felt that Li En's praise was different from those other compliments.

He seemed to see himself only as a human being.

"Thank you. Lord Li En is also very special."

"What's so special about it?"

"Exceptionally beautiful."

Ellie said frankly.

After all, she didn't know Li En's inner qualities, she only knew that he was good-looking.

Li En laughed heartily.

This is because Ellie is different from other women. When they say they are beautiful, they are really greedy for their bodies. Ellie says she is beautiful, it is purely an aesthetic recognition.

"Master Li En, why are you laughing?"

Ellie asked, tilting her head.

“Because of happiness, when people hear words of praise, they can’t help but feel happy.”

Li En said.

Ellie suddenly realized that she hadn't laughed just now, so she imitated Li En and laughed twice, "Haha."

Li En was stunned. The girl's laughter was not cheerful at all, but rather a little cute.

"Lord Li En, where are we going now?"

Ellie asked.

"Go find Dorothy."

Li En knew that in the royal capital, if there was one person who could help him hide his abilities, it would be Dorothy.

Although he didn't care when he cleared the [Bad Luck Constitution] entries before, that was because no one knew that these girls had [Bad Luck Constitution]. Even if he cleared these entries, no one would know.

But Ellie is different. Ellie is a witch in the Guardian Bureau. There are so many eyes watching her in the Guardian Bureau. She is not Sophie, who is in the remote Green Shade Territory and has no one to supervise her.

So if you want to clear her entry, you can only go to Dorothy's Tower.

That's the safest place.

The only drawback is that he would reveal a trump card to Dorothy.

Of course, Dorothy is actually one of us. We know each other very well and are determined to get married and have children in the future. It doesn't matter if I let her know some of my secrets in advance.

To be precise, they already have a child, Alexander.

He believed that Dorothy would never betray him.

I just wonder if Dorothy will still want to have a child with me after she knows this secret.

If she didn't want to, Li En wouldn't force her.

Ellie didn't think much about it. She thought that Li En went to see Dorothy to investigate the case, so it was her duty to accompany Li En to see Dorothy.

Although the two witches were both in the royal capital, they had never actually met each other.

Witches are anomalies among humans. People are afraid of witches and need witches.

Dorothy is an outlier among witches, and no witch is Dorothy's friend.

So, when Dorothy saw Li En bringing another witch into the tower, an expression of obvious surprise appeared on her face.

"Who is this?"

"Hell Witch Ellie."

Li En introduced, "This is Dorothy Hall."

Although Ellie is not a person who judges people by appearance, she was still a little shocked by Dorothy's beauty.

She touched her slightly chubby face and wondered if she would ever be as beautiful as Miss Dorothy because she couldn't grow up anymore.

"Leen Moriah, why did you bring the other witches here?"

The fire demon asked unkindly.

He could sense that something was not right with Ellie. This was the aura emitted by a witch on the verge of losing control.

If Ellie collapsed in the tower, even Dorothy wouldn't be able to escape unscathed.

Perhaps because it sensed the arrival of an unknown guest, the dragon egg hid somewhere, and the monsters chose to shut up one by one, but Li En could still feel their burning gazes as if they didn't exist.

"Ellie is now my assistant, in charge of the Blasphemous Worm case. She previously used her ability to open the Hell Gate, so she now has the red entry for [On the Verge of Losing Control]."

Li En looked at Dorothy and said.

Dorothy's eyes paused slightly.

She knew that if she had taken action, Ellie would not be facing this situation now.

But although she is a candidate for the director of the Guardian Bureau, she has never had any real contact with the witches of the Guardian Bureau, and her father has also told her not to participate in any actions of the Guardian Bureau.

Dorothy just followed her father's arrangements, but she didn't expect that others would pay the price with their lives.

Even if Ellie isn't dead yet, she'll probably be guillotined soon.

After a witch acquires the [On the Verge of Losing Control] entry, she will completely lose control within a week to a month. This is real data supported by research data from wise men.

So it will be at most 7 days, but the Guardian Bureau has always been conservative, and may give the witch three to four days to say her final goodbye.

"sorry."

Dorothy said to Ellie.

Ellie looked confused.
"This has nothing to do with you. This is my own choice."

Yes, even if Ellie doesn't go, there will be other witches to carry out this task. If the witch is in good condition, she will not be "on the verge of losing control" at all.

Strictly speaking, this really has nothing to do with Dorothy.

But Lee En said this on purpose to make Dorothy feel guilty so that he could cover up for saving Ellie later.

"Dorothy, if there is a way to save Witch Ellie, would you be willing to do it?"

"of course."

Dorothy said without hesitation.

"Thank you, but there is no way in this world to save a witch who has lost control."

Ellie said.

She began to like Dorothy a little more. Although this witch did not fulfill her obligation to protect the kingdom, she was at least not a bad person.

Dorothy seemed to have thought of something, and she looked at Li En in surprise.

"I know why you brought her here. You wanted to have a child with Ellie to channel her chaotic magic!"

The corners of Li En's mouth twitched slightly. "Stop talking. This is a crime."

Ellie's cheeks suddenly turned red.

"Have a…have a baby?"

"No, this method won't work on ordinary witches."

Li En said directly.

Dorothy was greatly disappointed.

The flame demon smacked his lips. "Dorothy, have you completely fallen? All you think about is becoming a mother?"

"..."

Dorothy was silent.

Li En also fell silent.

Ellie felt that she shouldn't get involved in such a profound topic.

"Um... Lord Li En, aren't we here to investigate a case?"

"Yes, but if my assistant loses control at any time, it will cause me great trouble, so I must solve my assistant's problem."

Li En said truthfully.
