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

Chapter 42 It’s broken. Are you entrusting your child to someone else?
"Roland, who is that guy?"

Listening to the voice next to his ear made Roland realize one thing.

His troubles weren't over yet.

"Just a partner in the entrance exam."

"Do you have partners for the assessment? Aren't they usually solo?"

Roland explained, "Teams are allowed for the assessment, but no more than two people."

"But generally speaking, most people would choose to take the test alone. After all, if two people form a team, the difficulty and complexity of the test will increase."

Kalia gently pulled Roland towards her and said, "Then why are you still forming a team? You only had a level two when you took the test, right?"

"You know I'm only at the second level, right? That's why I need help." Roland spread his hands. "Besides, the test at that time required us to enter a secret trial realm and survive for three days."

"It was precisely because the test was about survival that I was lucky enough to pass. In terms of strength, I am inferior to anyone else in the test."

"But when it comes to survival skills and escape techniques, they are still very inexperienced."

Roland laughed as he spoke.

Of course, he couldn't tell Kalia everything.

It's not that I don't trust Kalia.

But at present, even he himself is not clear about what kind of vortex the royal capital is at the moment.

The only thing that is certain is that after Iluvia was designated as the future heir to the throne, assassination attempts against her have never stopped.

If the military had not always stood on the side of the royal family, Iluvia's situation might have been even more dangerous.

But even so, judging from what happened today, even the military may not be able to cover everything.

Even though this is the royal capital, even though it has elite guards and city defense forces directly under the command of the royal family, as well as two elite magic corps responsible for garrisoning the royal capital.

But assassination is not something the military is good at.

The General Supervision Bureau, a department nominally under the management of the military, is the one that is truly responsible in this regard.

But unlike in local areas, the military has absolute control over the local branches of the Supervisory Bureau, and the General Supervisory Bureau in the royal capital can completely ignore the command and orders of the military.

Obviously, although the General Inspection Bureau did not express its support for any party, it remained neutral from beginning to end.

But this neutrality is itself a bias.

It's like a Teddy Bear beating a Tibetan Mastiff. If you just sit back and do nothing, you're on the Tibetan Mastiff's side.

If the Inspectorate had been on Iluvia's side, this assassination on the streets of the royal capital would never have happened.

Similarly, if the General Supervisory Bureau had leaned towards the assassination, Iluvia would not have been alive until now.

The capital is too complicated, he wants to go back to his hometown.

He looked at Kalia and thought that it was better for her to know less. Otherwise, she would use her amazing wisdom again.

"Hey, what's with that look in your eyes?" Kalia curled her lips. She always felt that there was a hint of care in Roland's eyes.

"Nothing, go and complete the admissions procedures first, then I'll take you to the academy cafeteria. The food is delicious, and it's free."

"free!"

When she heard that the food was free, Kalia immediately threw away the worries in her heart, which were already small.

How can I let these meaningless things occupy my appetite? !
Seeing Kalia's reaction, Roland breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the first day in the capital would end relatively smoothly.

……

In the Academy of Magic, in a private office belonging to the senior advisory professor.

Fram used her magic to lift herself up and flew to the top of a bookshelf.

On the bookshelf filled with all kinds of precious magic books, Fram counted and then stopped her finger on the spine of the twelfth book from the left to the right.

"found it."

Fram took the book off the shelf.

The book itself is nothing special, it's just an introductory tutorial on magical sensing.

But there is a key hidden inside the cover of this book.

A key that should never have been in her hands.

It’s just like that in life, especially a long life.

You will meet countless friends, and then your friends will pass away first because of their lifespan. Before they die, they will give you something they think is precious as a memory for you after their death.

Fram has a lot of such gifts.

For example, the secret key that nearly caused an accident in Riskan was the work of herself and the scholar who believed in the God of Truth in the brave team after they killed the Demon King.

She still remembers the violent girl who wore glasses and liked to hit people on the head with a crowbar.

Unfortunately, after the Demon King War ended, she participated in the exploration of the unknown land in the far north and never returned.

Fram was not sad, she knew that the guy's pursuit in life was adventure and exploration, truth and the unknown.

Perhaps dying on the journey of seeking knowledge and exploration is what she wants.

After all, this guy joined the team to fight against the Demon King because the Demon King's army was hindering her academic activities.

The same was true of the key she found at this moment.

But it is more special.

This is not a legacy from a friend, but a heavier trust.

Salah III, the guy who had always pestered her to teach him magic when he was a child by relying on his status as a prince, gave her the key before he became seriously ill and fell into a coma.

This prince, who originally had no hope of inheriting the throne and had no ambition for it, was eventually forced to inherit the throne due to the accidental deaths of his two elder brothers, thus interrupting his original career as an adventurer.

"In the blink of an eye, that little brat is going to die too? It really is true that we shouldn't get too close to humans..."

Fram looked down at the key lying in her palm, then held it in her palm.

The news that Salah III had lost consciousness and was dying was no longer a secret in the royal capital.

If Fram had not gone to meet Salah III secretly that day, perhaps she would have been targeted by a group of people by now?

No... maybe he's been targeted.

Besides the Bishop of the Chaos Brotherhood, there was another old acquaintance who interfered with and tricked Kalia into taking out the key. He was now staying in the royal capital openly.

"Are you just giving me the key to the royal family's secret room so casually? Salah, you're still the same as when you were little, completely disregarding other people's opinions and only wanting to do what you want."

Fram complained softly.

After confirming that there was no problem with the key, Fram decided to hide it somewhere else.

Although the academy is safe, it is not foolproof at this time when various forces are gradually revealing their ambitions.

To be on the safe side, she decided to carry it with her.

At least it's better than putting it here.

Fram put the key away and dropped it to the ground. She planned to go find her silly student.

This time, I have to warn her not to run around anymore. And that kid Roland...

"dong dong dong"

"Ms. Fram, are you there? I'm Roland."

"come in."

Fram moved her mind and magic opened the office door.

Seeing the door open, Roland walked in, looked at Fram and said, "Can I trouble you with something?"

"Are you thinking of using the favor I promised you so soon?"

"Um...if possible, let's not use it for now. I want to ask, is there any way to get to the Great Library of Truth in the academy?"

Fram glanced at Roland in surprise: "I didn't expect you to be so studious. Are you going there right after you get here?"

"This doesn't cost me any favors. I always like students who are eager to learn."

Fram's face showed this expression: "= w ="

"Here, here's the pass."

"Ah, ah, okay, thank you Ms. Fram!"

"You're welcome. Just remember to take good care of Kalia."

After hearing this, Roland's heart, which had been filled with joy at the smooth progress of things, suddenly dropped to freezing point.

He remembered the task from the system.

My heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

Isn't this a request for help?
