The warden who guards the witches

Amber sparkling wine flowed into the glass. Sophie Carter raised the glass with shining eyes and pointed it at the white wall. She looked at the wine in the glass, then brought the glass close to her nose and sniffed it gently.

"The quality of this wine from the Griffin Winery is better than I thought. I really lost a lot if I didn't get it at the beginning." Sophie commented lightly, and then took a sip, "It's a pity that the temperature is still a little warm for drinking this kind of wine. Can you get an ice bucket?"

"It's good to have something to drink." Aiden replied indifferently. This luxury is completely out of his daily life. To him, Sophie's style is just a matter of being picky.

"If you have such a rare good wine in your hand, but don't know how to taste it, you will become a nouveau riche without taste." Sophie said.

"I want to become a nouveau riche too." Aiden didn't care.

"By the way, don't you drink it yourself?" Sophie saw that Aiden had no intention of pouring wine for herself.

"I'm still working." Aiden sat down opposite Sophie. "I've given you the wine, so tell me the truth."

"After drinking such good wine, of course I will tell you the truth." Sophie took another sip of the wine. "But before I reveal the answer, Warden, why don't you guess it first?"

"Do you want to tell me?" Aiden suspected that the other party was being mysterious.

"I just want to talk to you for a few more words, so I'll guess once." Sophie raised a finger.

"The authority of 'existence'?" Aiden said his guess.

He thought so because he found that Sophie had an inexplicable conspicuous feeling whether she turned into a maid or revealed her true form. It just so happened that he knew a witch with the opposite characteristics.

The authority opposite to "nothingness" is "existence". Sophie's ability may not replace appearance, but other people's cognition of a certain existence. And her eye-catching characteristics are probably also the influence of this authority.

"That's right." Sophie smiled elegantly.

"Replacing myself with the maid, and the maid replacing you, the timeliness and scope of your power are a bit wrong." Aiden continued to ask, "Are you close enough to the power, or... is there someone else assisting you?"

The power of mortals to use power will be more or less limited, and Aiden knows this very well.

"My maid also has power, which is the result of our coordinated use of power." Sophie replied lightly.

"She even has the power of God, she is really a high-standard maid." Aiden frowned.

"I said her essential job is to be my substitute. Strictly speaking, Sophie Carter is originally two people. I am mainly responsible for the work in front of the stage, and she is responsible for the socializing and other troublesome things behind the stage."

"Then I really don't understand it. Since the maid is responsible for the work behind the stage, why doesn't she sneak into this prison?" Aiden questioned, "Do you really have to go to the extent of going to prison?"

In order to spy on his intelligence and develop him into a client at the same time, going to prison specifically, no matter how to say it, is too hard. And since she was imprisoned in the name of a maid, she can be the maid to do this job, and Sophie here can continue to be her singer outside, and there is no need to recuperate and leave the stage.

"As for the reason, I have mentioned it. I am your fan. It is normal for fans to get close to their idols, right?" Sophie pointed at Aiden and said, "This is my true words."

"Just because I defeated the Red Shark Pirates?" Aiden was puzzled.

"You don't have to belittle yourself. Although the pirate didn't understand how precious the treasure he accidentally got was, he still knew the power of the artifact. The Smiling Balance has known the whereabouts of the "Wordless Code" for a long time, and any saint who is close to the authority of "Order" can also sense the whereabouts of the "Code", but no one else has taken the authority from the ignorant pirates so far - just because of the characteristics of the "Wordless Code." Sophie said devotedly, "I am curious, how did you do it?"

"Can this information be used for trading?" Aiden asked back.

Even ordinary people can use the rules in the "Wordless Code" to prevent it from being robbed or stolen. Even if the pirates holding the "Wordless Code" were lured to rob by "fishing", if the holder was more cautious and used the "Wordless Code" to protect himself and only let his subordinates to carry out the robbery, it would be enough to make people helpless.

Aiden was able to successfully steal the "Wordless Code" entirely relying on the "time and place" arranged by Melissa, plus the "people" helped by Chichimora.

This insider seems to have not been found out by these intelligence dealers.

"This is just out of my own curiosity. I still hope to find it out myself." Sophie smiled.

"I don't like being investigated." Aiden replied.

"But I have investigated you. I am interested in you not only because you captured the Pirate King. I also know that you have captured the cultist Blood Prince who worships the God of Death, and destroyed the Black Goat Cult in the Old Reise Kingdom together with the Witch Assembly. I also know a little about your previous experience working in the Inquisition..." Sophie suddenly clapped her hands after she finished speaking, "It's amazing, just like a superhero."

"Most of this is because of work." Aiden told the truth.

He would fight with those forces not only for power, but mainly because they affected his work in the prison.

"But I really think it's amazing. By the way, have you heard my songs?" Sophie showed some expectation, "If you are also my fan, then we can be considered 'mutually attracted'."

"Then I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. I've hardly been to the opera house." Aiden shrugged, "I don't know much about you. I just heard your name recently."

"No way, you should at least know me from the media, right? I was named the singer of the year by "Performance" magazine last year." Seeing Aiden's increasingly confused expression, Sophie was a little surprised, "You haven't seen it?"

"Sorry." Aiden could only answer like this.

"The cover of me published by Trend? The posters released before? I also starred in the opera that was very popular before, called..."

"Don't ask, I'm really not familiar with it." Aiden waved his hand directly, "Sorry, I don't know much about this aspect."

"This is such a pity." Sophie Carter sighed disappointedly, "I thought I should be a household name."

"Don't be so disappointed, it's just that I don't pay much attention to the news of the entertainment industry." Aiden comforted her, and then asked again, "Well, even if you really want to get close to me, just meet me directly, there is no need to put yourself in jail, right? You... have other reasons that you didn't say?"
