The Speedrun Manual of Miss Witch - Chapter 212

Ciel stood up from the sofa and quickly felt her legs weaken.

Tara, who had been standing beside her, completely focused on Ciel, quickly came forward and supported Ciel. Her height was just right for Ciel to rest her elbow on her head.

“Phew…”

Ciel slowly exhaled. Supported by Tara, she sat back down. She turned to look at Tara and said with her head lowered, “Thank you.”

“No need to say thank you, Lord Ciel. This is what a servant should do.”

Tara quickly lowered her head, hiding the blush on her face.

Just now, when she was supporting Ciel, her cheek accidentally brushed Ciel’s side chest, and her hand also touched Ciel’s slender waist…

She had already started engraving this faint fragrance in her mind. She had no time to worry about anything else.

Ciel at this moment was sitting on the sofa, slightly closing her eyes to compose herself.

Multiple consecutive simulations within one day had indeed caused a significant drain on Ciel’s mental energy—it might also have been due to consuming potions.

In the past, staying in the simulation for 24 hours meant only a few to ten minutes passed in reality. This simulation, despite not being intense, caused over twenty minutes to pass in reality… This already meant Ciel’s mental energy was on the verge of exhaustion.

Even though Avena had just calmed Ciel’s mind not long ago.

It seems that it’s not suitable to conduct any more simulations today…

Ciel didn’t know when Avena would return from her errands. Ciel opened her eyes and began to consider what else she could do besides simulating.

Asking Avena about Isabella would have to wait until Avena returned.

Finding Grand Princess Vitalis… At this time, according to the route she herself provided, she should have already gone to Pharos. Ciel couldn’t just cross countries to apprehend her.

There was one more thing…

Ciel opened the system store.

【【Contaminated Parasitic Brain (Slightly Fractured)】】

【Fate Points: 10】

【【Iva Lafayette’s Personal Emblem】】

【Fate Points: 1】

Ciel did not redeem this parasitic brain. She wasn’t sure if redeeming it, and having two brains exist in the same timeline, would cause any unexpected events or make Forte lock onto her.

The best way was to clear a spot in the system inventory, redeem this item, then immediately put it back into the system inventory, and take it out in the simulation to give to Adele, to see if she could study what it was.

In the previous simulation, “Detective” Ciel had directly held this brain in her hand, but nothing had happened.

As for Adele, who was still a “Physician” in the last simulation, she probably couldn’t be of much help. Ciel believed that at least a “Plague Doctor” level transcendent would be unaffected by this thing.

If given to Ashford, he would definitely be able to research something from it. Unfortunately, he was bombed half to death and wouldn’t recover for at least a hundred days.

Ciel glanced at her current 6-slot system inventory.

【Deadly Blood Roland】, 【Endless Manual of Instant Forgetfulness】, 【Box of Soul Instigation】, 【Mastermind Sage’s Toy Box】, as well as Hugh’s letter emblem and a Divine Advent Church Bishop’s emblem.

Ciel had already moved out the bound exclusive sealed artifact 【Echo of the Silver-White Timebinder】, but there still wasn’t enough space.

After thinking for a moment, Ciel moved out Hugh’s letter and emblem, as well as the Divine Advent Church Bishop’s emblem.

Silver light flashed, and a letter and an emblem appeared in Ciel’s hand. The letter also contained another emblem.

These items were no longer very useful to Ciel, especially in reality and future simulations.

She could already quickly gain the trust of the Divine Advent Church and the Church of the Savior Goddess through other means. Except for past simulations, these two items were basically useless.

She would let Tara keep them. When a past simulation was needed, Tara could give them to her. For now, she would temporarily move them out of the system inventory.

Ciel handed these two items to Tara and said, “Please keep these two items for me.”

“Yes, Lord Ciel.” Tara bowed slightly.

Tara was not at all surprised by what Ciel could conjure from her hand, let alone just two emblems.

Ciel spent 10 Fate Points and directly placed the brain she had brought out from the second-to-last simulation into the system inventory. Ciel’s remaining Fate Points balance was 506.

After redeeming the brain, Ciel opened the simulation interface again and looked at the next available simulation time points.

【Future Days: 27 Days (Holy Year 741, August 13th, 20:00) (Cost: 10 Fate Points)】

Finally, a decent time point arrived…

27 days later, not only could her simulated self extract the brain for Adele to research, but she could also find Isabella and Grand Princess Vitalis.

If she was a little more aggressive, she could even redeem Lafayette’s emblem and have her simulated self directly impersonate Lafayette to extract information from the Church of the God of Order…

Moreover, being able to simulate 27 days later meant that Forte had still not investigated her identity, and she was still very safe.

“Tara, if anyone comes looking for me, wake me up.”

Ciel waved her hand at Tara, then stood up and walked towards the bed.

She planned to rest a little more.

“Yes, Lord Ciel.”

Tara watched Ciel lie down on the bed. After a moment of thought, she walked to the door, gently opened it, and stood outside.

Although she really wanted to continue accompanying Lord Mother Goddess’s physical body in the room, Lord Mother Goddess clearly needed rest now. Tara needed to help block visitors outside for a while.

About an hour later, Amy’s figure appeared before Tara.

“Is Ciel inside? Little Tara.” Amy asked Tara.

“Lord Ciel is resting inside. May I ask what you need her for?” Tara slightly lowered her head and asked softly.

“Oh… I wanted to say that my belongings have all been moved to the new address. I wanted to ask Ciel if she wants to come to my housewarming dinner tomorrow… There won’t be many people, basically just a few of my friends and relatives.”

Amy looked at Tara and asked, “Can you ask her for me when she wakes up?”

“Of course, Miss Amy. When Lord Ciel wakes up, I will convey the message.” Tara nodded slightly.

“Then I’ll trouble you.”

Amy walked down the hallway towards the stairs. It seemed she was planning to move out of the hotel tonight. She seemed to want to say goodbye to Avena, but Avena was not in her room.
