The warden who guards the witches

"Is it because of personal grudges, or..." Aiden asked.

"The result of our investigation is that it is to usurp the other party's research." Chichimora answered.

After hearing this, Aiden realized that what Sophie said about what Joey Lawson had done was probably true.

"You removed him but didn't dispose of him?" Aiden asked.

"It's nothing new for witches, wizards, necromancers, and alchemists to kill each other. Rather, before the witch coven started its activities, this kind of relationship was the norm among witches." Abigail He said calmly, "Even Habiness and the others have thought about finding opportunities to take away the divinity from us before. I believe that what that man did was harmful to the activities of the witch assembly, but he was not targeting the entire witch community. There is no reason for me to avenge the dead witch."

"It's your attitude towards the gathering that you only manage but don't do your best, which makes Vera and Precia always dissatisfied with you." Kikimora reminded from the side.

"I organized the witch coven not to benefit the witches, but mainly for myself." Abigail replied, "Even so, I once had the idea to take the opportunity to legitimately kill the man, but he later escaped to the Netherlands. , was recruited by the Netherlands to participate in the Netherlands’ foreign wars. I am afraid that he took that opportunity and successfully entered the system of that country and gained a legal identity. "

"So, Joey Lawson is actually just a fake identity?" Aiden asked.

"Most likely, that person can't be only in his thirties," Chichimola said.

"No wonder he can do such a thing..." Aiden nodded.

A reputable person will do things with some sense of proportion because of his identity. As the heretic inquisitor, Joey Lawson can kill people without any scruples. I am afraid it is also because his identity is forged and just because of his past experience. admit.

The essence of this guy is still a wizard who is an outlaw.

"So how did this person provoke Your Excellency?" Abigail asked the core question.

"This is actually what happened..."

Aiden simply recounted what happened when he accepted Sophie Carter's commission, and his plan to ask Kiki Mora for help.

"Aren't you worried about fraud when dealing with Smiling Balance's intelligence officers?" Abigail asked after listening, "As I said before, it's better not to have too much involvement with this organization."

"Probably not. I have a way to verify the lie now." Aiden replied lightly.

"That's true." Kikimora realized Aiden's method, "Then the warden is planning to kill the wizard?"

"If necessary," Aiden replied.

He didn't mind killing Joey Lawson if necessary. Whether it was to stop the other party's murder or to fight back when the other party took the initiative, the reasons were all very legitimate. If Joey was really involved in a murder case and was planning to kill someone, then there was no need to be soft on such a person.

"It sounds interesting. But it's also a bit risky..." Kikimora said with deep meaning.

Sure enough, the conditions will start to be negotiated right away, Aiden thought to himself.

Fortunately, he was prepared.

"The divinity can be divided equally, and... the Smiling Scale seems to hold the whereabouts of the Hand of Annihilation." Aiden said without changing his face, "If the commission is completed, she should be willing to tell it."

"If the warden guarantees it like this, I really have no reason to refuse." Chichimora was obviously very happy.

"Even the information about the Hand of Annihilation has been helped by Kiki Mora." Abigail calmly teased, "Your Excellency, are you really interested in Kiki Mora?"

Aiden didn't respond to the joke, but asked Abigail point-blank: "Would you be interested in helping me?"

"No need, I won't go out if it's not necessary, and this business doesn't appeal to me." Abigail waved her hand, "If that person's strength is still the same as what I heard last time... the two of you together The fighting ability is enough to make me sympathize with my opponent.”

"Okay." Aiden turned to Kikimora, "Can you come to Silver City as soon as possible?"

He told Chichimora the exact location of the mansion.

"Well, I'm afraid it will take some time to get to where I am now..." Kikimora said hesitantly, "at least more than a day."

"Today may still be Christmas Eve, but it doesn't matter if that guy comes to kill him anytime now." Aiden shook his head.

"How about this? Habiness happens to be transporting some materials near Vera's temporary workshop. I ask her to give you a ride?" Abigail gave a plan.

"Let her take me to the train station in the autonomous prefecture. I can go there by myself and save a lot of time." Chichimola replied, "If she and the warden meet, they might start fighting."

"There will definitely be a fight." Aiden corrected, "If possible, I don't want to face that irritable brat directly."

"Habinis is not a young person." Abigail said slowly, "Then let's arrange things like this first. Kikimora is still staying in the same place?"

"Yes."

"I will notify Habiness, you go and prepare." Abigail pointed to Kikimora.

"Okay, see you later, Warden." Kikimora waved to Aiden, and his figure was quickly shrouded in mist and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Thank you for your help, ma'am." Aiden tentatively thanked Abigail.

"What extra trouble have you encountered recently?" Abigail asked suddenly.

Aiden couldn't help but be startled.

He was pursuing Mr. Bloody's matter, and Abigail knew it very well. Asking about the so-called "extra trouble" from her mouth shows that she is somewhat aware of Aiden's recent changes.

Because of the reward given by Sophie, he got involved in the dog-eat-dog incident between the Smiling Scales and the notorious wizard Joey Lawson. To a certain extent, he was also forced by the situation around him.

"It is true... we have encountered an unimaginable big trouble, but it is not that critical." Aiden shrugged, "I just don't know if you, madam, will be willing to lend a helping hand."

"I won't refuse if it's just a piece of cake... but with your ability, I'm afraid it won't be a trivial matter that requires my personal help." Abigail replied calmly, "You can't just take things that are too big." Come and owe me a favor.”

Aiden heard what Abigail meant - if he wanted her to do her best to help with something, she had to give equal conditions.

If he wanted her to help deal with a Dominator, she would only accept an equivalent condition... I would have to help her obtain the sole authority of "life".

As expected, these witches are very good at negotiating terms.

"Understood." Aiden smiled at Abigail, "Then now, I'd better solve the problem at hand first."
