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

Chapter 83 Sometimes I feel like a failure

After arranging the orders, Slo took out the file that Parker found in Governor-General Riskan's Mansion and continued to read it.

July 12, 999, Imperial Shipwreck Investigation Report

[Top Secret]

[Location: Storm Ocean, approximately 480 kilometers northeast of Reskan Harbor, approximately 120 kilometers west of Longfin Island]

[Shipwreck: Iris Cargo Ship]

[The number of people is unknown, and the specific crew list is lost.]

[Cause of the accident: (blackened)]

Investigation Results: After a joint investigation by the General Administration of Supervision and the Mainland China Historical Society, combined with years of observational data on ocean currents in the Ocean of Storms by the Mainland China Historical Society's Ruiskan branch, it was concluded that the storm that caused the shipwreck was not naturally occurring.

[Based on current information, it is highly likely that a divine descent ritual occurred on the Iris.]

[Except for the ship's name, all information about the ship has been erased by an unknown force.]

[The same applies to the names of passengers on board the vessel, cargo information, etc.]

【Only partial information is available, and it needs to be repaired with the help of the learned technology.】

[The following is a list of repaired data]

【…】

Slo looked at the report patiently, but soon he threw the file aside in disappointment.

Got nothing.

Everything was exactly as the Brotherhood had already learned from the intelligence records.

The whereabouts of the relic remain unknown.

The only thing that is certain is that the divine descent did occur, but the sacred object used as a sacrifice was not taken away.

It seems that there is still nothing to be gained.

When I think about the missions I came to the capital for, I realize that I haven't completed any of them so far.

It can even be said that there has been no progress at all.

The first task is to enter the secret realm of royal inheritance underground in the palace and steal the holy sword placed therein.

This mission was basically over before it even began because of the loss of power of teammate Wellington.

The second task is to assist the Hellfire Archbishop's men in carrying out the divine descent ritual and destroying this royal city known as the City of Eternal Day.

Although the mission has not yet begun and the manpower is fully prepared, Slo feels that the possibility of success is slim.

After all, he needed them as bait to distract the attention of the military and the General Supervisory Bureau in the royal capital.

Otherwise, how could I kill that guy?

Even if there is no chance to kill that kid, with them attracting hatred, the possibility of successfully escaping will be higher.

The third task is also the most critical one.

Obey the oracle, guide the awakening of the Son of God, and bring an end to this world.

The good news is that this mission is not without progress.

At least they were able to lock onto their target.

The bad news is that locking it is the same as not locking it.

The witch named Kalia has never left the academy since she arrived in the royal capital.

The operation that was most likely to complete the hypnosis failed due to Iluvia's intervention.

He never found a more suitable opportunity after that.

In fact, since the first task was not completed, he did not even have the means to cause the witch's power to go out of control.

Slo couldn't help but cover his face.

He seemed to be a bit of a failure.

But...it's not that there is no solution at all.

Loss of control over emotions can also lead to loss of control over abilities.

"That kid named Roland has a good relationship with that witch, right?"

"if……"

"Hahaha, interesting. I'm starting to look forward to that day."

"My Lord, please bless me..."

Slo closed his eyes, and the scene of the destruction of the capital appeared in his mind. It was a pitch-black, endless night.

Even though there is a wisp of purple fire and a faint golden light fighting stubbornly... silence and darkness are the end of this city.

"What a wonderful ending..."

……

"So Ms. Fram, what should we do now?"

"Tea. Any snacks?"

Fram pushed the plate of snacks on the table towards Roland.

Roland was speechless. He picked up a sandwich cookie and took a bite.

He glanced at Kalia, who was already eating heartily, and then looked at Fram: "So, you brought Kalia and me from the academy to the military headquarters just for this?"

Fram nodded, holding a piece of strawberry cake in her mouth.

Roland asked, "What about Iluvia?"

"She took the hatter to the House of Representatives," Fram replied. "It's not a big deal. It's just that a group of nobles were unwilling to have their privileges taken away, so they joined Wellington in causing trouble."

"When Salah was still healthy, they only dared to say a few words behind his back."

"In the capital, they took advantage of Ilvia's out-of-control abilities and fabricated rumors such as bad luck for the princess."

"But at least in this respect, they were successful."

"As soon as they discovered that Salah was unconscious, these guys started to think about it. With Wellington taking the lead, the situation in the capital was what it was before."

"But he's still too impatient."

Fram analyzed the situation very calmly and told a part of Iluvia's past.

Roland listened silently, then asked, "So, Ms. Fram, you can start eating your snack with peace of mind?"

"Wellington has been brought under control by Mr. Caiface, but the hidden dangers have not been completely eliminated."

"Let's not talk about the Chaos Brotherhood's bishop. There are also traitors in City Hall, and maybe even in the academy."

"Shouldn't we act now, strike while the iron is hot?"

"You also said they were planning to perform a divine descent ritual, right?"

Fram nodded: "Logically speaking, yes."

"But we have to find someone, right?"

"You also know that the larger the range of magic perception, the smaller the accuracy."

"Although I can expand my perception range to the entire capital, the accuracy at that time is almost negligible."

"As for the others, the Hatter will take good care of them. Don't worry about it; they're experts in that area."

"Hearn also said that he would have the faculty and staff of the academy cooperate with the investigation. You don't have to worry about it."

Roland nodded after listening.

He could tell that the elf didn't really want to work.

In other words, in her opinion, the situation in the royal capital has almost stabilized.

Although from Roland's perspective, this guy's judgment of the situation was not very accurate every time.

If it weren't for me, this guy would probably have ended up in jail now.

At this time, Roland also asked: "So, how is the old emperor doing? Is he still unconscious?"

"He's still unconscious, but Wellington is a spineless guy. He realized that his situation was hopeless and has already confessed some things."

"For example, it was he who poisoned Salah, combined with some hidden curses, that made him seriously ill."

"But fortunately, Salah is in good health and the medical staff are doing their best, so it's still possible to save him."

"It is inevitable that the body will suffer serious damage."

"But at least I still have another ten or twenty years to live, even if my energy will be less."

"Speaking of which, Roland, do you still remember what you promised me before we set out from Reskan?"

"About taking care of Kalia."

Roland nodded: "Yes, I remember."

Fram: = w =
"Then I'll trouble you a lot with this child's practical assessment at the academy."

"If you can form a team for the assessment, try to bring her along so she can earn more credits."
