The Speedrun Manual of Miss Witch - Chapter 191

Lucy looked at the illusory figure and mused, “Is it really her…?”

“After that, I was basically resisting my family’s arrangements. I didn’t learn much about her,”

Avena shook her head. “Just hearing the name makes me feel a little disoriented.”

“I know a little about her.”

At this moment, Lucy spoke directly:

“This Grand Princess rarely shows her face in various social occasions. Rumor has it that she has a different philosophy from the Queen and doesn’t plan to inherit the throne… This is basically the impression she gives to the outside world.”

“In the transcendent circle, she is very famous. It is rumored that she might become the youngest Tier 3 transcendent, and possibly even complete her advancement before her coming-of-age ceremony next year. She is only 17 years old now.”

“Tier 3 at 17?”

Amy, beside her, covered her mouth and said softly, “I’m almost 16 now…”

“She has the resources of the royal family. She cannot be compared to ordinary transcendents,”

Lucy shook her head and said, “And she is also taking the ‘Musician’ potion. It can be said that as long as she follows the royal family’s plan, she can advance to Tier 3 very smoothly.”

Avena wasn’t surprised by any of this.

If she had accepted her family’s arrangement at the time, she could probably also have advanced to Tier 3 “Crown Guard” before her coming-of-age ceremony. For the well-established Roswell family and the royal family, nurturing such a person was not difficult.

At this moment, Avena turned her gaze towards Ciel. A hint of hesitation appeared in her eyes.

“Ciel… are you… Tier 3?”

Avena finally asked.

She remembered very clearly that Ciel had taken the “Detective” potion and had advanced to the subsequent “Law Officer.”

But the ability Ciel was currently displaying, which could instantly drag a Tier 2 into a dream, was not something a “Crown Guard” or “Law Officer” could possess.

This was why Avena had these doubts.

“Yes, Tier 3 ‘Subverter’.” Ciel nodded and said casually.

“Wait, are you really Ciel?!”

This time, Lucy widened her eyes and looked at Ciel, saying in astonishment, “You are not the ‘Subverter’ sent by Ciel? Then who was it at the lakeside banquet…”

“It was me too.”

Ciel slightly nodded. “Let’s talk about the main business. Is it possible to contact that Grand Princess?”

What do you mean “main business”? More important than my life! I’m more curious about how you changed paths and levels! I personally saw you drink the “Detective” potion! And you bought it from me!

Lucy felt completely bewildered.

“Wait, since you were a ‘Subverter’ before, then all of this… have I been in a dream since the lakeside banquet? This is all a test from the organization, right? I passed the test, right? Everything that happened just now was fake, right? My position on the board is still there, right?”

Lucy was starting to become a little incoherent, but from her last sentence, it was clear that she really cared about her Executive Director position.

Ciel looked at Lucy with a strange expression.

Actually, she had accidentally guessed half of it correctly… This was indeed not reality, and Lucy’s position on the board was indeed still there.

“Regarding my abilities, it involves the organization’s secrets. I cannot go into detail.”

Ciel shook her head and said.

Although she could say all this was just a dream in the simulation, Ciel didn’t want to waste time on explanations.

The person who accepted this the quickest was Tara. She wasn’t surprised at all that Ciel could use abilities from multiple paths, because this was just the process of Her reclaiming authority.

“Lucy, do you have any uses left for your coin?” Ciel looked at Lucy and asked.

“One more use.” Lucy nodded and said, “I flipped it once this morning, it was heads, and then you came to find me.”

“Flip it again.”

Ciel said to Lucy, “I need you to help me find Grand Princess Vitalis, and preferably bring her back.”

“Me? Capture the Grand Princess?”

Lucy’s jaw dropped slightly.

Is this for real?

Princess Windsor had just died, and she was being asked to capture the Grand Princess? Does she have a death wish?

Moreover, judging by the extent to which Princess Vitalis had concealed herself in the dream, she might have already taken the Tier 3 “Silent Performer” potion and acquired some of its abilities.

“What if it’s tails…” Lucy said hesitantly.

“If it’s tails, you don’t need to go. Instead, you go find my contact in the Society of Merriment and relay the news that the royal family used them.”

Ciel replied.

Hearing this, Lucy breathed a sigh of relief.

After Ciel had everyone leave the illusion, Lucy quickly took out her “Strong Luck Coin” and flicked it upwards.

“Tails tails tails tails…”

Lucy muttered softly, raised her hand, and caught the coin.

The Eyeball Angel seemed to look at Lucy with a smile.

“It’s over…”

Lucy wailed, but then, she said with some hesitation, “But it seems it’s not entirely over…”

Two heads meant that even if she failed, she wouldn’t die.

“I will go to the Church of the Savior Goddess with Tara… to do some things. Let’s agree on a time. Regardless of whether the task is completed or not, we will meet back here.”

Ciel said to Lucy.

“Ciel, what about me?” Avena looked at Ciel and asked.

Amy also looked at Ciel. Her eyes were full of anticipation for this kind of “transcendent” event.

“You guys…”

Ciel’s mind raced.

Ciel didn’t want them to go on an adventure with her.

Ciel looked in Tara’s direction and asked, “Has that person from the Society of Merriment contacted you?”

Earlier, Ciel had asked the captain of the Chaos Squad to inform Tara of all the movements of the Society of Merriment. She wondered if Tara had received any news.

“Yes. They sent a letter to Ansu City in mid-July. Their orders were to gather information about the Royal Medical Society and Ashford… But their letter had just arrived when the Royal Medical Society was bombed.”

Tara replied, “Later, their mission was canceled.”

Well, well… So they also planned to assassinate Ashford. It seems that assistant lecturer was indeed an insider from the Society of Merriment.

However, before the Society of Merriment could make a move, the Royal Medical Society was bombed by the royal family first.

Did the Society of Merriment just go along with the plan and take the blame?

“Avena, I will create some commotion on the other side. You take Amy and the others and directly leave the city by train to Berren City to find those members of the Society of Merriment—Tara, call a few people who can control the Chaos Squad to go with them.”

Since the Chaos Squad wasn’t in Ansu, it would definitely be impossible to investigate the movements of the Society of Merriment in this simulation.

It would be better to arrange for Avena and the others to leave the city directly under the guise of a mission.

As for the commotion…

Didn’t the Church of the Savior Goddess want to see miracles and wonders?

A bloody miracle should count as a wonder, right?
