I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Cinderella, the fairy tale "Cinderella". Collected and compiled by the French writer Charles Perrault and the German Brothers Grimm, it is one of the most widely known fairy tales in the world.

Cinderella is the translated name in some versions, and is also the name of the protagonist in "Cinderella". Although the versions are different, the main storyline and factors involved are similar.

Cinderella is a kind but unfortunate girl. After her mother's death, her new family members bullied her in every possible way, and she was forced to do heavy work. She was often covered in dust, so she was nicknamed "Cinderella". One day, with the help of a magical force (maybe a witch or a wishing tree), Cinderella transformed into a rich lady that even her family could not recognize. She attended the prince's ball and finally gained happiness.

For ordinary people who have nothing to do with mystery, this is just a fairy tale with a beautiful meaning. But in the world of magic, this magical power has a new definition. Makeup and dressing up were originally magic, a type of change. Karina's transformation from maid to Golden Princess perfectly fits this process.

Of course, because of the special nature of the Golden Princess, the simple Cinderella spell is not enough. A special curse is also needed. This curse is the source of the dispute between Garry Asta and Izeluma, which was auctioned at the underground auction. The secret treasure - Bodhi leaves stained with dragon's blood. It was the one that Siegfried accidentally got on his back when he was bathing in the dragon's blood after killing Favna.

Because of this bodhi leaf, Siegfried's immortal body was left with the only flaw, and this bodhi leaf was also contaminated with Siegfried's concept of bathing in dragon blood to obtain immortality.

As Lorelaia said:

"Siegfried's bathing in dragon blood symbolizes his rebirth from a human to an immortal hero. This transformation is enough to sublimate Cinderella's magic. It is the most perfect curse body. However, after all, it has been soaked in dragons. Blood, it is impossible to extract the concept from the cursed body by ordinary methods, at least Iseluma cannot do it. The only ones present who can do it are Lord Baru Yereta and Aozaki Orange."

In fact, Shinji needs to be added, but Shinji has never shown the ability to extract concepts in front of Lorelaia, so he is not among them.

"As the biggest loser in the incident, Lord Baru Yerreta obviously cannot do such a thing to damage Baru Yerreta's reputation."

Because of Atlam's attack, the fact of "The Death of the Golden Princess" could no longer be concealed. Like the "Death of the Golden Princess", the incident of Izeluma's fraud was also spread throughout the Clock Tower. As the head of Izeluma, Baru Yerreta was also implicated and his reputation was damaged.

The only two vested interests are the El-Meloy Classroom, which has successfully displayed its prestige and gained a wave of benefits from Baru Yerretta, and the aristocracy that is opposed to democracy - the enemy's loss is our gain.

In the end, only Aozaki Yuko is left, a master of puppets and the human body.

"If I remember correctly, Aozaki Orange has been won over by you a long time ago. You - are you cooperating with her in acting? You also played a certain role in this incident?"

"I'm not, I didn't." Shenji shook his head.

Seeing that he didn't look like he was lying, Lorelaia added, "That means you and her fell out. You didn't hesitate to tie up the entire rune system for her, and you also owed the favor of the second magician. What happened? Will it cause you to break up?"

"Why do I feel that you are gloating?" Shen Er frowned.

Loreleia directly imitated Shenji's behavior just now and shook her head in denial: "I'm not, I didn't."

Shenji rolled his eyes helplessly: "We didn't break up, so good. Just check the entry and exit records and you will know. She just boarded the plane from London to Osaka a few hours ago. My father will send someone to pick her up at that time. Xiao Sakura and Fujino are probably cleaning the room already."

"What's going on? It can't be that she has lost her memory."

"Miss, you should really become a detective. You must be better than Webber."

Hearing what Shenji said, Lorelaia was stunned on the spot, and it took a while before she asked doubtfully.

"Really amnesia? I just guessed."

"To be precise, I was hindered by the drugs and didn't remember it."

"..."

Lorelaia was silent again. There are many ways to interfere with memory. One of Yizaluma's collaborators is a highly qualified pharmacist, and there are also many talents in this field in the Legal Affairs Department. But no matter which method is used, one principle must be followed. The higher the target's magic level, the less likely it will be effective. The more wary the target is, the more difficult it will be to interfere. A top-ranked puppet master who has escaped the executioner's pursuit many times has nothing to do with it. The question is the most difficult goal. How is it achieved?

Realizing that Her Majesty the Queen has a tendency to get into trouble, Shinji quickly revealed the answer:

"It's not what you think. She drank the medicine voluntarily. This is one of the conditions of the commission. The reason is naturally to conceal the news that the 'Golden Princess' is dead. As long as she can be resurrected, no matter how high the price is. Willing to sacrifice, including becoming an enemy of Gari Ashtar, including fighting for the Bodhi leaves stained with dragon’s blood.”

"A boring obsession, knowing clearly that reaching the 'source' is impossible, why do you still do it?"

"For the reputation of Iseluma. Apart from that illusory goal, the only thing the magician values ​​​​is is the continuation of the family line. Without the signatures of Golden Princess and Silver Princess, Iseluma's decline will be a matter of time. At this point, You should know best."

Her Majesty sighed. As the oldest family in the Clock Tower, Bartholomew has seen the rise and fall of many magician families along the way. As for the right and wrong in this, even Lorelaia, who was standing at the top of the clock tower and overlooking the entire magic world, didn't know how to judge.

"Why did Aozaki Orange agree? She can't possibly not know how risky it is to hinder memory."

"She knows, but risks have never been a problem for her. As long as the commission is interesting enough, she won't frown even if she cuts her brain open with her own hands. She is such a hopeless person. Tell me again Let me tell you one thing, that Bodhi leaf stained with dragon's blood is actually the reward for Cheng Zi's commission. Because she feels that relying on the funds and materials prepared by Bai Long will lower the standard of her work, so she must ensure the standard of her work even if she pays for it. , the result was that even she herself did not realize that the Golden Princess at the dinner was a fake. When Weber took out the ashes of Bodhi leaves that had been burned with a special technique collected in the Golden Princess's room, Bailon and Atram His expression is wonderful."

Interests come first, works come first, and everything else is secondary. This is Orange's belief. It is this attitude of not sticking to conventions and doing as she pleases that has allowed her to reach the top position and stand at the pinnacle of modern magicians.

Of course, it is inevitable that family and friends will be worried. Because of this incident, Shen Er used the coercive power of the contract document for the first time and taught Cheng Zi a lesson. As for what it is, it is not clear to outsiders, please use your imagination freely.

PS: Ah, what a great opportunity to describe it, but it’s a pity that now is the most strictly controlled time. An author wrote about the White Lotus Sect, but it was a tragedy. Many overseas UP owners at Station B were directly banned for fear that they would talk nonsense. I originally wanted to come to Xingyue Heavy Industry, but what kind of tool is an orange?
