The Speedrun Manual of Miss Witch - Chapter 190
“They? Just a bunch of people who betrayed the Mother Goddess’s faith…”
Tara subconsciously spoke bluntly, mocking the Church of the Savior Goddess. “They cling to life by kneeling and fawning over the royal family and sacrificing their interests.”
Not only Tara, but also the Divine Advent Church members behind Tara began to whisper amongst themselves. Although they didn’t know Ciel’s identity, their contempt for the Church of the Savior Goddess was the same.
“But…”
Tara’s tone shifted. She returned to the main topic. “If Lord Ciel desires the two churches to merge, you only need to display a few divine miracles or create some wonders, making them believe in the Mother Goddess’s existence again…”
“Many knowledgeable and wavering individuals within them will likely completely side with the Divine Advent Church. At that time, even if the Pope disagrees with the merger, there will be nothing she can do.”
Miracles…
Now, the only way Ciel could think of to create a “miracle” was the ability she hadn’t tested yet, 【Omniscient】.
Whether it was the Church of the Savior Goddess or the Divine Advent Church, their statues of the Mother Goddess or Goddess were faceless statues.
But by making some adjustments to the statues, making them point towards Ciel, Ciel could then respond through 【Omniscient】.
She definitely couldn’t carve her own face. Otherwise, she would be deeply tied to these two religions.
One had to know that the Church of the God of Order and the Ansu royal family were desperately trying to eliminate the Church of the Savior Goddess in Ansu. If Ciel carved her own face, it would be like making herself a target for others to kill.
However, the description of the 【Omniscient】 skill did not state that she had to carve her face. It said “construct objects that point to you”…
This meant that not only statues, but even gestures or incantations that pointed to her could be known to her.
However, this ability had to be used cautiously. The number of people who knew about it must not be too large.
Otherwise, these constant directed words or prayers would invade her mind like incessant harassment calls—this was far more terrifying than whispers.
This was a point that could facilitate reunification. Ciel had to remember it—it would be best if she had the opportunity to meet the Popes of the Church of the Savior Goddess and the Divine Advent Church. Only then could Ciel be sure if she could deceive them.
“In the lockdown situation in Ansu, do you have the ability to take people out? I killed Princess Windsor.”
Ciel asked calmly.
“Please wait, Lord Ciel. I will ask…”
Tara returned to the room and found a black-robed believer to ask.
She had killed Windsor. She would definitely be subjected to a large-scale search. Now she had also obtained a lot of information. Adele’s research manuscripts could also be carried with her for easy exchange after she left.
Now, besides going to see the Popes of the Church of the Savior Goddess or the Divine Advent Church, there was only one thing left to do—try her best to stack 【Nemesis】 on the people involved in this matter.
The higher the stack of Nemesis, the safer she would be in reality.
There was also one more thing—she had to obtain detailed information about Windsor’s sister, the Grand Princess, including when and where she had been. It would be best to directly kidnap her.
This witness had to be dealt with immediately. Otherwise, no matter how well the sample matter was resolved, she would still be exposed to the royal family’s gaze.
Ciel felt that none of the Ansu royal family members were normal from top to bottom. She didn’t want to enter the sight of these people…
“I cannot take you out, Lord Ciel…”
Tara returned to Ciel’s side, shook her head, and said, “We cannot escape the lock-on range of the ‘Echo Barrier.’ This is a range detection method of ‘Illusion Conductors’.”
Ciel temporarily stopped thinking about the royal family and asked about the approximate strength range of these bishops and priests, and got the answer.
Combined, they could summon something similar to a “Grim Worm”…
Moreover, 【Spiritual Summoning】 was also a skill. It could also be overloaded by the uniqueness 【Overlimit Gear】.
The previous Grim Worm had existed for too long and had also traveled a long distance. It was very quickly killed by a Tier 4 in Ansu City.
If it were summoned on the spot, the commotion would definitely be greater… But Avena and the others would definitely not be able to escape the range of this sacrifice.
Most importantly, the influence of the Other Side on Ciel had not completely disappeared. She didn’t know if the summoned Grim Worm could actually contend with so many Tier 4s. This method was too much of a gamble.
Not to mention overloading 【Spiritual Summoning】… What would come out, and what kind of impact it would have on her mental state, Ciel herself found it difficult to estimate.
She would consider this a last resort.
If all else failed, she could perform a sacrifice on the other side of the city, and then have Avena and the others take a train or boat and secretly leave from another location.
Of course, Ciel’s goal now was to obtain more information.
To stir up this muddy water further, she couldn’t rely on the Redemption Society. She needed to reveal this investigation information to the Church of the Savior Goddess and see their reaction.
She had to get the Church of the Savior Goddess involved, and also try to facilitate the merger between the two churches, and attempt to deceive the Pope with 【Omniscient】.
She could even reveal information to the Society of Merriment, informing them that they were being used by the royal family.
And she had to catch that Grand Princess…
Ciel quickly prioritized these matters in her mind.
She wanted to see if she could complete all of them directly in the same simulation.
