My dear witch, please turn evil according to the script!

Chapter 11 The Undercurrent

Kalia was lying on her back, having fallen with her. The back of the wooden chair beneath her was hurting her.

But she didn't wake up immediately.

Instead, they are in a state of mind that is common among office workers and hard-working students - their brains are rebooting.

Kalia, who hadn't fully switched on yet, tried to comprehend what was happening.

"Unfamiliar ceiling..."

Kalia muttered to herself as she stared at the ceiling, which was completely different from the cozy wooden house she lived in.

Oh...it turns out that I have already left Blackthorn Territory.

The rare good sleep made Kalia feel in a trance that she had just fallen asleep on the desk in the tree house.

It was not until the unfamiliar scene before her and Roland's handsome face, which looked unhappy, that Kalia came back to her senses.

Then Kalia quickly shifted her gaze away from Roland, and then she disappeared underground and emerged from the other corner of the room.

She was a little afraid to look at Roland now.

One was the accident that almost happened last night, and the other was that my inexplicable imagination last night made me a little unsure about how to get along with Roland.

Just because Kalia didn't speak, it didn't mean Roland wouldn't speak.

"You have a bed but you don't sleep on it, you sleep on the table. That's pretty creative."

"I……"

"Never mind. Whatever you like. I don't get to choose where you want to sleep."

Roland quickly skipped over the topic and turned the conversation back to business: "Pack up and come with me to the City Defense Army headquarters."

"My personal suggestion is that you take a shower and change your clothes."

"The address here has most likely been exposed, but because of the martial law imposed by the city defense forces, the group of men in black haven't come to our house yet."

"But if you hesitate a little, you can't tell."

After saying that, Roland closed the door and left, saying, "Come to the basement when you're ready."

After seeing Roland leave without looking back, Kalia whispered, "What? He's giving orders right away... Forget it. After all, I promised him that I would follow his orders in Riskan."

"But I really didn't expect that this guy actually has connections in the city defense army."

Thinking of this, Kalia felt a little relieved.

As the most powerful country on the continent, the Hearst Empire is full of martial virtues.

This is reflected in the imperial army equipped with standard magical equipment.

The magical equipment compensates for the lack of offensive means of the macho warriors who make up the majority of the army.

The landmine that could kill or even make a fourth-ring magician unconscious by catching him off guard was a typical example.

Although the Imperial Research Institute has not yet figured out a way to solve the high cost of magic equipment, resulting in not every member of the army having a piece of magic equipment.

But that's enough.

Even in the Blackthorn Territory where Kalia grew up, the city defense forces there are not to be underestimated, not to mention a major commercial town like Riskan.

Generally speaking, the richer the city, the better equipped its city defense forces are.

Even her teacher, who had reached the ninth-ring legendary rank, had told Kalia that if she had no prior preparations and if all the magical equipment of a city defense force could instantly focus its firepower on one point, it would actually be possible to penetrate the defensive spells of a legendary magician.

This shows the combat effectiveness of the city defense forces, and they are definitely not just a group of people who are just there to make up the numbers.

As for her teacher, although Kalia realized that her teacher was not very reliable in private after she grew up, she never doubted his ability.

As a legendary magician who can cross the Ocean of Storms in his physical body and ignore the violent magical hurricanes on the Ocean of Storms to reach the elves' homeland of Avalon, his strength is definitely enough to easily overthrow a country.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have survived that brutal Demon King subjugation battle. The fact that she had a chance of getting injured demonstrated the advanced magical equipment of the Empire at that time, as well as the high average combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army.

Therefore, she was relieved when she learned that Roland had connections in the city defense army.

It seemed to her that the trouble might be over.

All that's left is to buy a ticket to the royal capital.

Thinking of this, Kalia, who had been worried for half a month, finally felt relieved.

Kalia, feeling relieved, checked to make sure Roland wasn't lingering near the bathroom on the second floor. Then, she took out some clothes from the shadows and dove into the bathroom.

At the same time, Roland, who was in his simple workshop in the basement of the house, took out the portable communication device he had picked up.

After an inspection, Roland confirmed his judgment when he was at the scene.

The only thing that has damaged rune engravings on this thing is the one used to receive messages. All we need to do is repair it.

"It's not a big deal."

"On the contrary, this map..."

Roland took out the map he found in the secret compartment of the communicator, on which five locations were marked with red dots.

Because it was a miniature map of the city's layout, Roland couldn't immediately determine the locations of the five red dots.

After completing the receiving runes on the communicator, Roland waited for it to restart while walking to the Riskan map on the basement wall in the workshop.

This is an item left by old Lanslo. It is an old map from ten years ago. With the development of Ruiskan in the past ten years, the layout of the city has undergone considerable changes, but you can still get a general idea of ​​it.

Roland compared it with the map and quickly determined the locations of the five red dots.

Governor's Office, City Defense Army Headquarters, Water Supply Center, Port, and Magic Train Transfer Hub.

Roland was very sure of the coordinates of these five places.

Simply because these five places have not changed their locations due to urban development.

An ominous premonition arose in Roland's heart.

Until now, thinking about the mouse he had killed before and which had inexplicably earned him a system reward, he suddenly felt a little uneasy.

The clues he had obtained so far gradually formed a dense network in his mind, but the nodes that connected them had not yet appeared.

Roland's thoughts were like a tangled mess, making him feel uneasy.

"I'm fine, Roland. Um... I'm still a little uncomfortable calling you that all of a sudden."

Roland looked in the direction of the sound and saw Kalia leaning on the edge of the stairs leading to the basement, leaning half of her body out to greet him.

At this time, Kalia had already taken good care of her long hair and tied it into a ponytail. She wore a simple white cashmere sweater on the upper body and a black long skirt on the lower body.

She doesn't look like a witch, but rather like an ordinary girl next door.

Just as Roland was thinking this, Kalia took out her hands from behind her back, holding a very stereotypical black wide-brimmed witch hat, and put it on her head.

"How does it look good?"

"Or would it be better to change the color?"

"I brought ten hats like this with me when I went out, all in different colors."

Kalia held the brim of her hat with both hands and put it on her head, then smiled playfully at Roland.

"...Very good. Now that you are ready, let's set off. Don't keep Colonel Odermeyer waiting too long."
