Following Ronald into the next room.
Fanny didn’t even bring her own apprentice.
After entering the living room and greeting Heloise, she couldn’t wait to ask Ronald:
"Mr. Ronald, did you really find out the whereabouts of Mil?"
"Yes."
Ronald, standing at the doorway, nodded in confirmation again.
He gently closed the door, then walked over to Fanny:
"I was active outside the city tonight and encountered so noteworthy incidents, among which Mil also appeared."
With such a definite answer, Fanny couldn’t contain her excitent, "Mr. Ronald, I truly appreciate... "
As Fanny was about to express her gratitude, Ronald interrupted her:
"Ms. Fanny, the happenings tonight are not just about finding Mil’s traces. There were so more complicated issues involved."
"So, before I inform you of the situation, I have so questions to ask."
"..."
Faced with Ronald’s response, Fanny felt as if she had been doused with cold water.
Realizing that things might get troubleso, the caster from the "Twelve Witches" quickly adjusted her attitude and then spoke seriously:
"Mr. Ronald, I will answer all your questions to the best of my ability."
"As long as it doesn’t involve the core secrets of the faction, I am at liberty to share other information with you, sir."
Watching Fanny, who sat upright with a grave tone.
Ronald first offered a kind smile to ease the atmosphere, then continued to explain:
"The situation isn’t as serious as you think."
"During the confrontation with Mil, I encountered so highly dangerous magical constructs, all resembling wooden puppets..."
Ronald stopped there.
The expression on Fanny’s face beca even more distressed in the midst of the tension.
The two looked at each other in silence for a few seconds before Ronald, who led the conversation, spoke again:
"I have crossed paths with Mil before and am naturally aware of the spells she wields. However, none of the spells she used in the past could achieve such an effect."
"So, Ms. Fanny, I assu you could provide so information."
"..."
Though she had boasted confidently just now,
when Ronald brought the conversation to this point, Fanny indeed couldn’t respond imdiately.
The witch stood up from the sofa, narrowed her gaze thoughtfully, and after several minutes of inner struggle, she slowly looked towards Ronald.
"Mil’s use of this kind of spell must bear so responsibility of our faction..."
"..."
Hearing this, although Ronald had his suspicions, he still couldn’t help asking, surprised:
"So your faction actually had a spellbook stolen?"
"An international faction excelling in various aspects had its original text stolen by soone like Mil, and she managed to escape successfully?"
"There are many reasons for this!" Fanny first countered, then proceeded to narrate the story of Mil’s ti away from Springs, "In fact, a few months ago, Her Majesty the Queen of Greide organized a raid against foreign spies, and our faction’s casters were among those invited to participate."
"..."
The following is a long narration by Fanny.
In front of Ronald and Heloise, who had both experienced the event, the witch recounted that night’s unknown happenings from the perspective of the attackers. After the destruction of Entrod’s spy agency, naturally, there was the matter of dealing with the remnants.
It was in the underground cells of that base that the leader of the "Twelve Witches," who was in charge of the situation, discovered the imprisoned Lumir, and at a glance, recognized the ’girl’s’ unique physical traits.
So when it ca to dividing the spoils, Lumir was treated as a rare special species and was taken on the road to the "Twelve Witches" headquarters overnight.
Regrettably, fate did not favor the "Twelve Witches."
During the study of Lumir, the first thing confird was that this was a witch of summoned creatures; they thought of the forbidden tos sealed away within the organization.
The subsequent research followed from there.
The caster leading the experints thought to try for a breakthrough by studying the commonalities between the two. However, the result brought forth a crisis; the researchers’ past experience proved to be of no use.
The experint had barely started when the original to, which had its seal partially unraveled and began to be infused with Magic Power, resonated with the unconscious Lumir. Before anyone could react, Lumir was dragged into the to’s trial!
What followed was simple.
Unlike the employees of the investigation bureau who were unfazed by death.
Faced with the out-of-control original to, the "Twelve Witches" decided to first blockade the affected area; normally, a rampage of an original to would gradually subside after so ti.
However, two weeks passed...
When the "Twelve Witches" caster unsealed the barrier that completely cut off Magic Power and then went to check the original to, which theoretically should have settled down, they faced an empty underground research lab.
Lumir had successfully passed the trial and even regained her self-awareness within it.
Later, taking advantage of her own spell’s superiority, she managed to slip away from the "Twelve Witches" with the original to!
If it weren’t for the decisive action of the leaders of the "Twelve Witches," followed by recourse to the Prophetic Spell,
they might still be clueless about the details of this incident to this day!
Listening to Fanny’s string of explanations, after she finished speaking, Ronald still spoke up:
"Let confirm this again."
"Alya was also in Springs this ti, you know her identity, right?"
The mont Ronald’s words landed, Fanny’s body sitting on the sofa suddenly trembled.
Although it was a fleeting reaction,
Ronald still caught this change.
— It was fear.
— This witch was afraid of Alya.
Ronald began to ponder how to pry Fanny’s mouth open.
But just a few seconds later, the witch timidly spoke up herself:
"That lady is in charge of the matter regarding our original to. Personally, for , interacting with her is very dangerous, after all, the original to was lost on our watch."
Ronald was sowhat curious:
"You actually know about Alya’s responsibilities."
Fanny answered directly:
"Lady Alya’s abilities are beyond doubt."
"Inherited from ancient tis, she is responsible for sealing certain very terrifying things. If there is any need for witches to provide assistance, then at least the ’Twelve Witches’ cannot hinder her activities."
Having said this, Fanny paused before she continued:
"Mr. Ronald, you should also understand what the Complete Technique ans, right?"
