Go back? There's no going back.

However, immediately afterwards, the military police in charge of the investigation discovered signs of corruption at the scene.

Moreover, it is a corrupt creature with an extremely high degree of depravity.

From that moment on, the matter was beyond the capabilities of the gendarmerie.

"The location of the initial conflict is some distance away from here, in a hotel next to the main entrance of the training camp."

Seeing that her master had finished reading the information recorded in the notebook, Elsie continued to add: "But unfortunately, the registration list of that hotel, including the staff on duty at the time and the photo records, disappeared before the military police rushed to investigate."

"..."

After listening to Elsie's report quietly, Celia was silent for a while.

"In the next few days, raise the city's alert level to level one and find out the whereabouts of that corrupt creature as soon as possible."

Finally, after opening her mouth and giving the order, a hint of doubt slowly arose in Celsia's mind.

Why could a being so corrupted to such an extent... pass through the sky magic formation that covers the entire royal city at all times without any hindrance?

Even, it was not discovered until its true form was revealed?

Could it be that a new kind of special corruption has appeared on this continent?

"…Hmm? What's wrong Elsie? Any other clues?"

Just as Celsia was thinking for a moment, her brows furrowed more and more tightly, she suddenly noticed from the corner of her eye that the maid beside her was looking at her hesitantly, as if she had something else to report.

"No, this is not a clue, it's just..."

Meeting her master's gaze, Elsie was silent for a moment, then spoke softly, "When I was looking through the hotel's accommodation list, in addition to the page that had been destroyed, I also noticed that the child...was staying in the room opposite the Fallen."

As she said this, Elsie leaned forward slightly and handed another hotel accommodation list to her host, then pointed to a name written on it and said, "So... I'm a little worried about his current situation."

Hearing this, Celsia was stunned at first.

But when she subconsciously looked down and saw the words "Su Wei" that stood out for some reason on the accommodation list, her eyes widened little by little: "What is he doing in a place like that? Are you sure... it's not someone with the same name?"

"No, I asked carefully at the time, and it's not someone with the same name."

Elsie shook her head, and for some reason, her eyes became a little subtle: "I heard that the top floor of that hotel is full of the most expensive luxury couples suites."

"……what?"

As soon as Elsie finished speaking, the First Princess of the Empire in front of her seemed to have suddenly received some kind of strong mental shock, and the expression on her face froze for a moment.

At this moment, Celsia's mind once again flashed with the image of the little ghost who was talking to her while making a contract with someone during the last contact...

If you think about it carefully, the surrounding environment in the picture at that time...it really doesn't look like a training camp?

Could it be that, having only been away from the palace for less than half a month, he has already... graduated... from being a boy?

As I thought about this, a strange silence fell all around.

"……How can it be."

I don't know how much time has passed. Just when Celsia came back to her senses, she took a deep breath, stretched out her trembling right hand to pick up the teacup, and tried to force a faint smile on her lips. When she was about to say something,

The frog communicator on the table next to her suddenly made an extremely cheerful croaking sound again and kept calling.

"..."

After hearing the voice that was completely different from the usual calls, Celia was slightly startled.

She realized instantly that it was a ringtone she had set up before...a ringtone that would only be heard when a certain bracelet actively sent a call.

For some reason, her heart skipped a beat. The next second, Celsia frantically checked her appearance.

After confirming that there was no problem, she took a deep breath, her expression became elegant and calm again, and she reached out and pressed down the frog's head.

croak——

However, the next moment, just as the connection was established, the real-time communication screen on the other end popped out of the frog's mouth and was fully presented in front of Celsia... the expression on her face froze bit by bit.

"Ah, it seems to be connected, little brother."

Listening to such a frivolous voice, and seeing the stupid kid who was squeezed together with a woman in the picture and whose clothes were tattered for some reason, Celsia's mind suddenly went blank.

"Good afternoon. Nice to meet you again, Princess of Tirantia."

At this moment, he casually glanced at the stiff-looking kid on the side. On the annoying face of the woman in the picture, there was an intriguing smile: "The child you raised is unexpectedly quite good."

As soon as she finished speaking, the air on the already quiet platform on Celia's side completely stagnated.

"What are you doing?"

An indescribable coldness gradually emerged in her green eyes, and Celsia stared at the woman in the picture.

Her eyes were as flowing as autumn water, her eyebrows were slightly raised, and her meticulously carved face had a hint of annoying laziness and charm.

Kids nowadays...are probably easily attracted to this kind of alluring looking women.

"Yes, that's what I'm doing."

When asked this, the witch in the picture tilted her head for some reason, and spoke in a somewhat uncertain tone: "Well... if I must say, it seems that I saw that this child wanted to contact you just now, so I helped him?"

"……what?"

Hearing the other party's unclear answer, Celsia narrowed her eyes, and her slender eyebrows were almost twisted into a ball.

"Forget it, let this little brother tell you the rest."

However, the woman in the picture didn't seem to want to say anything more.

Instead, she turned sideways, grabbed Su Wei's wrist with the bracelet on, moved it slightly, and pushed Su Wei in front of the screen.

"..."

Their eyes met belatedly, and Celsia, who had already shown a hint of annoyance on her face, froze.

"Su Wei, what's going on now?"

After taking a deep breath, a gentle expression reappeared on her face. The first princess of the empire forced a smile and asked, "She said you wanted to contact me. Is there anything you want to tell me?"

However, even though she managed to conceal it, at this moment, after seeing that the disheveled kid in front of her had met a certain annoying woman again, Celsia's heartbeat began to rise uncontrollably.

So, this little ghost...is he here to say goodbye to me now?

He has met again the woman who had fascinated him, and her attitude now seems to be... not that much of aversion to him?

Next, he will live with this woman and completely cut off contact with me?

...Thinking of this, Celsia's heart tightened for a moment, and she subconsciously tightened the ring on her hand.

At this moment, she suddenly felt fortunate.

Fortunately, she had at least reminded the kid to learn to love himself.

At that time, he also seriously agreed to her.

At least this way, even if he ends up with a ruthless woman in the future, he won't be bullied that badly by her...

"Um, Princess, I want to report to you that this witch who brought disaster to the country has somehow sneaked into the royal city and even came to the training camp where I am currently."

The next second, Su Wei in the picture opened his mouth, and the expected farewell words reached Celsia's ears at the right time.

"...Yeah, you too, you have to remember what you promised me... huh?"

Subconsciously turning her head away with her eyes downcast, Celia, who didn't want to meet Su Wei's eyes, moved her lips and suddenly froze.

"What did you say?"

Looking back in vain, as if she had heard some mysterious book, Celsia opened her eyes wide and stared at Su Wei in the picture in astonishment.

"Ah?"

Although Su Wei was somewhat puzzled by the princess's reaction, he was stunned for a moment before speaking again: "I mean, the witch lady who brought disaster to the country has come down from the Rosso Mountains. Now she is in the royal city, beside me. I think this witch lady may pose a threat to you... no, to everyone living in the entire royal city."

"…So, you are reporting her to me now?"

Blinking more and more confusedly, and after confirming that she was not hallucinating, Celsia stared at Su Wei intently.

"Yes."

Hearing this, Su Wei nodded, and then, with an awkward expression on his face, he added: "Although there were some problems with the process, and the bracelet on my body broke, she helped to fix it in the end..."

After the words were spoken, the communication fell into a brief silence.

"..."

After a few seconds of silence, her heart beating faster and faster, Celsia looked at the particularly determined expression on the face of a certain stupid kid, and murmured uncertainly: "So, you didn't come to say goodbye to me?"

"Ah? Say...goodbye? Were you saying goodbye just now?"

Although the princess' voice in the picture suddenly became quieter, Su Wei could still barely read out the words through her slightly moving lips.

However, the confusion on his face only increased.

"No... don't worry about it. What's important now is... your problem."

Noticing Su Wei's reaction, Celsia shook her head vigorously, forced herself to tighten her facial expression, and her eyes became solemn again when she looked at Su Wei.

Because she has realized that if Su Wei is not planning to follow the annoying woman beside him and live together with her... then now, isn't the situation of this kid very dangerous?

He is not the other party's support.

But in this situation, he actually reported the other party to himself in front of that moody woman?

...What on earth was this stupid kid thinking?

At this moment, Celsia felt as if her brain was freezing.

She suddenly felt that, as she had thought before, it would be better to let this stupid boy go with some woman.

At least, that way, no matter how moody that woman is, the possibility of her killing her subordinates... will be less.

"...younger brother, there are other things you forgot to tell your lady who supports you."

At this moment, a female voice coming from beside Su Wei broke the silence.

In Celsia's frozen eyes, Eve beside her suddenly moved closer to Su Wei.

"I just killed your mentor, dug out her eyes, and cut open her stomach... Don't I need to report this to her?"

Her warm lips were only a few centimeters away from Su Wei's ear as she reminded him softly.

"..."

Hearing this, Su Wei was stunned. Looking at the witch in front of him with a smile on her face, who seemed to be encouraging him, everything in his vision suddenly became dazed.

At this moment, he seemed to see his mother who was slightly stunned and then smiled when he first said the word "Mom".

"My Lady Princess... this Witch Lady just killed a third-level instructor in the training camp. Although I feel that instructor is a bit strange..."

After a moment's silence, Su Wei shook his head vigorously to clear his mind of all distracting thoughts, and added this to the princess on the other end of the line.

At the same time, he became more and more alert to the strange behavior of the witch in front of him.

"More than that. Counting today's case... this is the eighth person I've dealt with in the past few days."

The whispers of the witch who brought disaster to the country continued in my ears.

"..."

That delicate tone made Su Wei's ears feel itchy for a moment.

Su Wei shrank his shoulders in extreme discomfort.

In the past... has this witch ever spoken to me in such a gentle voice?

After organizing his words a little, he once again told the other party's words truthfully to the princess on the other end.

But for some reason, this time the princess had a tense face and stared at the witch who was whispering to Su Wei.

"I know everything..."

After Su Wei repeated all the words that the witch wanted him to add to the story, the princess in the picture suddenly opened her mouth and said to him: "Su Wei, her words... are okay, you don't have to worry."

"Eh?"

Now, Celsia has mixed feelings.

At this moment, she had realized that a certain stupid kid didn't seem to be as obsessed with a certain bitch as she had imagined.

This made her feel relieved, and even inexplicably happy.

But at the same time, looking at the witch who behaved strangely and whispered in Su Wei's ear many times as if she was making fun of him, Celsia's face gradually became solemn.

Because she knew very well that this woman... was a complete lunatic.
