The warden who guards the witches

The next day, Kikimora visited the Rose Iron Prison as usual.

In the meeting room, Aiden and Kikimora looked at each other through the glass.

"You finally figured it out." Kikimora was a little happy after finally getting a positive answer from Aiden, and took out a cigarette box from his pocket, "It really took me a lot of effort."

"No smoking here." Aiden stopped her.

"You misunderstood, I want to give this to you." Kikimora took out a black crystal pendant from the cigarette box, which contained a constantly changing mist, "You must be familiar with this, right?"

"The proof of the great witch?" Aiden immediately recognized this thing.

"This is what Abigail meant." Kikimora smiled.

"Are you asking me to officially join your big family?" Aiden couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "I'm a man."

The Witch Assembly is a group composed entirely of witches. In this world, contrary to the physical differences between the sexes, women have a much higher average talent than men in the study and application of black magic such as psychic communication, potions, and devil contracts. Some magic, like divination, can only be learned by women. Even the night of the red moon, which has a bonus effect on black magic, benefits witches more. This directly leads to the fact that the number of witches is far greater than that of male wizards, and even a small number of male black magicians will transform themselves into women in order to study specific spells.

"Don't you have the ability to become a woman?" Qiqimora teased, "Don't worry, Abigail doesn't mean to pull you into the witch gathering. According to Abigail's standards, your pursuit of taboo knowledge is not pure enough."

Aiden really has no interest in this aspect. Whether it is in-depth research or studying black magic, it is actually a very technical and dangerous thing, not to mention that such things may also attract the pursuit of the Inquisition.

This is also why he basically didn't think about learning the black magic developed by Daly and others to strengthen himself.

"So what are you going to do?" Aiden asked, staring into Chichimora's eyes.

"Since we have reached a cooperative relationship, it is necessary to leave a contact method, right? If nothing unexpected happens, after receiving your reply, Abigail should hold a 'welcome party' tonight."

Aiden stared at the pendant for a while. After such a long time, this thing actually returned to his hands.

The practicality of this thing is indeed impeccable. In a world where telephones have not been widely used, mobile phones are not even visible, and long-distance communication can only rely on telegrams and voices, Abigail has developed this black technology that can hold holographic projection meetings remotely. If possible, he would like to get this good thing in bulk, and then... sell it and make a lot of money.

However, he also knows that props with magic power often require rare magic beasts and ore materials. The cost of this kind of magic prop with an amazing effect may be outrageous. Even without the "Dark Magic Management Convention", there is probably no prospect of large-scale application.

"Does this pendant only allow the holder to attend your party?" Aiden asked.

"Of course, do you want to bring others?"

"I was just thinking that Daly and Precia are also one of you. Since we have reached a cooperation, maybe we can let them get involved in this matter." Aiden replied calmly, "But it doesn't matter if I attend the meeting alone. It's safer for me."

Qiqimora suddenly showed a bit of surprise.

"Why, what's the problem?" Aiden noticed her expression change.

"It's just a little unexpected." Qiqimora regained his composure. "You are willing to let the S-level wanted criminals in the prison help. You are more open-minded than I thought."

"Make the best use of everything and people." Aiden shrugged. "How can you discard the good cards in your hand without using them? Of course, they are still prisoners after all. I will add a demon contract to them as insurance. I know that some of you have the ability to remove the demon contract held by the Inquisition, so it's best for you not to have any contact outside the prison-I hope you can abide by this level of rules."

"I don't have any opinion. But... Daly is not the case. Precia is now like Vera, and she has some opinions about Abigail." Qiqimora smiled meaningfully, "I'm afraid she is not so active."

"Don't bother, I have persuaded her." Aiden replied calmly.

"How did you do it?"

"You might as well ask them directly when you meet them." Aiden did not answer this question directly.

When he talked about this with the two witches in Room 12 yesterday, Precia did not have any intention to cooperate.

At that time, she even said sarcastically: "Let us work for you and go to the Black Goat to steal divinity for you to upgrade. At most, we can get a reduction in sentence for one or two years. You are really calculating."

After thinking about it, Aiden gave them a blank check: if they can successfully defeat the Mother Goddess of Plenty and share the divinity, and if they have made contributions, he can share a part of the divinity with them-but the premise is that they are released from prison after serving their sentences.

Daley and Precia's sentences are not short, and there is a limit to how much they can be reduced. Daley, who has been in prison for nearly five years, is not a big deal, but Precia, who has mastered such a dangerous technique as the Soul-Swapping Secret, will probably have to spend at least eight years in prison.

Aiden's idea is to observe them carefully before they are released from prison. If they have been reformed, it is fine to abide by the agreement. If there is still a possibility of committing a crime, he will break the agreement without hesitation.

Finally, after hesitating for a long time, Precia agreed. After all, the situation in prison will not change. Although there is a risk of being broken by Aiden, this is their only chance to obtain divinity.

"Well, then please come to the "welcome party" tonight." Chichimora said in a half-joking tone.

"It just so happens that I also want to meet Abigail." Aiden said, pointing to the pendant in Chichimora's hand, "Please give the certificate to the reception desk, and I will pick it up."

The prison's meeting room is strictly prohibited from passing any objects. There is no passage to pass objects through their curtain wall.

But Chichimora smiled nonchalantly: "No need to bother."

After that, she stretched out her hand, passed through the glass curtain wall without any hindrance, and placed the pendant in her hand on Aiden's side.

Then, before Aiden could react, Chichimora stood up: "I have a craving for cigarettes, I will go back first. Say hello to those two for me, see you tonight, warden."
