The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

As the saying goes, "Don't worry if you have too many lice" and "Don't worry if you have too many debts." Louise's resistance to this sudden shock from the elder was already very strong.

Habit is second nature.

Moreover, the more important point is that she found that she really would not fall into a desperate situation. Even Ourolius, the "Angel of Destiny" whose divinity is far greater than humanity, would also give up the thoughts that are not good for her at the last moment.

Then what is she afraid of?

"There's someone above me!" This is a wise saying.

I remember Will Asceptin once said personally that no one wanted me to die midway, except the "original witch" Chick... Louise suddenly felt emotional, this feeling of "there is someone above" is quite good,

Although the price is that your destiny and the road ahead are probably being planned and corrected at all times.

However, this kind of "surprise" can also help her get closer to the truth hidden behind it faster, which can be regarded as a drink and a peck.

Just as she was immersed in thinking, the carriage slowly stopped, and the maid sitting on the other side of the carriage reminded her softly:

"Here we are."

Louise came back to her senses, and she remembered that she was on her way to a ball, and the ball was hosted by Duke Negan.

"Okay." She replied, then got up and prepared to get out of the car.

The maid opened the door curtain of the carriage, and at the moment Louise leaned out, her mind suddenly recalled that in the very strange dream that night, a certain "paranoid" in the audience's path had once

Said the same thing as Will Asceptin:

"No one will kill you."

Could it be that they all saw something in me... Louise paused for a moment, then walked out of the carriage naturally. She suddenly realized that her existence was probably not the "work" of a single god.

And represents the interests of a group of "people".

…………

Since Louise came to Backlund, she has fully experienced what "dance socializing" is.

The ball held by Duke Negan himself is no different from other balls. It is just that the house is bigger, the decoration is more luxurious, the food and drinks are more abundant, and the guests who attend are either rich or expensive...other than that, they all seem to be the same.

.

Louise secretly curled her lips in her heart. Since the last dance held at 59 Egram Street was ruined by the Ambassador Intis incident, she has basically lost the qualification to hold another dance, because the guests may think that

Very awkward.

Therefore, she enjoyed her leisure time and went to various dance parties all day long, playing the role of "happy witch", which caused the potion to be digested faster than expected.

Entering the hall, Louise gave the maid a look, and the latter immediately understood and quietly disappeared into the crowd.

Tonight's ball was grand, with many distinguished guests gathered. Louise even saw Prince Edsac, but she didn't notice Triss. Didn't the prince bring her to the ball?

The two were at odds, or maybe Prince Edsac didn't want Triss to come to the stage for the time being... Louise raised a glass of champagne and guessed with interest.

After exchanging the "Silk Gland of the Adult Widow Spider" from her, Triss should have been successfully promoted to the "Witch of Joy" at this time, but she just doesn't know when she will be ready to escape... she won't want it anymore.

Wait until after the "Backlund Great Smog" incident? That would be such a failure.

As she was thinking about it, Louise suddenly showed a bright smile, because in her sight, Miss Justice, wearing a gorgeous aristocratic dress, was walking towards her gracefully.

"Long time no see." Audrey said.

Louise was slightly startled, and suddenly realized that although the two met every Monday at the "Tarot Club", they had not seen each other in the real world for a long time.

She raised her glass and said, "If it hadn't been for Duke Negan's invitation, maybe we still wouldn't be able to meet."

Audrey took a sip of red wine and said with a smile:

"I've been busy recently and am studying a new course, psychology."

Louise knew the elegant meaning after hearing the song, and naturally knew that Miss Justice was referring to the "Psychological Alchemy Society", and responded with a smile:

"Future 'psychiatrist', if one day I need treatment, I hope you won't refuse!"

Audrey was a little surprised and asked curiously:

"Is there something wrong with you mentally?"

I am a "witch", can I have no mental problems? Moreover, I feel like I am becoming less and less like myself... Thinking of this, Louise fell into a brief silence.

This kind of feeling is impossible to talk about, it seems to be there and not at all, and it only appeared recently. It is probably because after dreaming about myself in the "past life", my personality seems to be starting to split.

After silence, she laughed dryly and said:

"Who doesn't have some unspeakable things? If you suppress it for a long time, problems may arise. In this regard, the 'audience' has unique conditions."

Audrey, who is considered a semi-expert in psychology, agreed with this statement. When she used the ability of "audience" to observe the people around her, she discovered many dark sides that she had never imagined. This is an instinctive emotion of human beings.

avoid.

"If there really is such a day, I hope you can come to me immediately, and I will do my best to help you." Miss "Justice" said with a serious expression.

Louise smiled and responded: "I will."

After that, the two started a new topic. Audrey's eyes moved, as if she saw something, and she suddenly said:

"Thomas is back from the Southern Continent, did you know?"

Louise nodded and said:

"After he finished his work, he went to visit me. We talked about many past events in the Southern Continent, which was very pleasant."

Audrey said "Oh" softly, her eyes with deep meaning fell on Louise's face, and she said in an inexplicable tone:

"I heard that Viscountess Conce is planning to take advantage of Thomas's stay in Backlund to find a suitable date for him!"

"I heard that too." Louise replied nonchalantly.

The next second, she noticed Audrey's teasing eyes, quickly reacted, shook her head in a funny way, stretched out her index finger and tapped Miss Justice's forehead, and said:

"What are you thinking about all day long? We are just good friends."

Audrey deliberately pretended to be aggrieved and retorted:

"I didn't say anything. I was just stating the fact that your reaction was a bit excessive."

Louise glanced at her flatly and said:

"Those who are pure will themselves be clean."

Afterwards, the two of them stopped joking, and showed standard kind smiles on their lips. They all noticed Duke Negan walking towards him, and greeted him with gentle steps.
