The Speedrun Manual of Miss Witch-Chapter 203 - Seeking Potions Suitable for Combat (1/3)
Knock knock knock—
“Mmph—Come in!”
Click—the door opened.
Adele, sitting at the dining table, watched Ciel and Avena at the doorway with puffed cheeks. She closed her eyes and hammered her chest several times with her right hand, swallowing the food in her mouth. Then she quickly wiped her mouth with a napkin and sat upright at the table, pretending nothing had happened.
“Sorry for interrupting your lunch.”
Ciel looked at Adele, smiled and nodded. After letting Avena go in first, she closed the door behind her.
“Is something wrong?”
Adele stood up, walked to the sofa, sat down, and asked.
Avena and Ciel coming to see her together made Adele subconsciously think something major had happened again.
“No, I just got some research notes about that sample. I thought you might find them useful.”
Ciel took out the notebook, walked over to Adele, and handed it to her.
While copying this notebook, Ciel had consciously removed many of Adele’s writing habits—Ciel had read many of the notes Adele had given her and was relatively familiar with Adele’s writing.
“This is...”
Adele took the notebook with some curiosity and opened it directly.
After just reading the first few sentences, Adele instinctively straightened her back and held the notebook, reading it seriously.
When it came to matters related to Adele’s specialty, Adele would appear more reliable.
Adele’s page-turning speed became faster and faster. Her thinking seemed to completely align with the thoughts of the person in the notes. Almost the next idea that popped into Adele’s mind was immediately verified in the notes.
Only after finishing the entire notebook did Adele let out a long sigh, her face even showing a hint of wanting more.
She looked at Ciel and said:
“Burp...”
Adele’s cheeks slowly turned a little red. She silently lowered her head, took a sip of the red tea in front of her, and then sat still with the notebook on her lap, as if she had crashed.
“Uh... are you done reading? I was distracted just now and didn’t notice what you said.”
Ciel asked calmly, her face straight.
She was a professional. Usually, unless she absolutely couldn’t hold it in, Ciel wouldn’t burst out laughing.
“I’m done...”
Adele looked up at Ciel. After confirming that Ciel really didn’t seem to understand her awkward display just now, she said, “Who wrote this notebook? I really want to meet them.”
“It’s clear that the person doing this research is not high-ranked, and the experimental equipment is relatively simple, likely just an assistant... However, many of the researcher’s ideas are very peculiar. I never thought there would be such solutions. If I could talk to them, I would definitely learn a lot...”
Don’t think about it. You wrote this.
“You probably won’t see her,”
Ciel shook her head and said, “She won’t appear in this world anymore.”
Adele in the simulation would indeed not appear in reality anymore.
“Ah...”
Adele’s voice sounded a little regretful. It seemed she thought the researcher had already died.
For Adele, it was still a little difficult that a researcher who could potentially become a kindred spirit had passed away before she even met them.
“If I let you continue researching based on this, do you have the confidence to continue?”
Ciel looked at Adele and asked the most crucial question.
“It should be fine.”
Adele nodded. “Her research hasn’t gone beyond the scope of my knowledge.”
“Okay.”
Ciel extended her hand. Upon seeing it, Adele obediently handed over the notebook in her hand.
“I will give this research notebook back to you after your new laboratory is built. But until then, I will keep this notebook.”
Ciel said, holding the research notebook.
“Ciel... one more question.”
Adele slightly raised her right hand and said, “The researcher of this notebook... seems to have been assisted by a ‘Gardener.’ Without this assistance, the research progress might be much slower...”
Assisted?
That’s simple.
“It’s alright. I will help Amy get the ‘Gardener’ potion as soon as possible.”
Ciel nodded. “You can start preparing for moving to a new place during this time.”
After chatting with Adele for a few more minutes, Avena and Ciel left Adele’s suite and returned to Ciel’s suite.
After closing the door, Avena looked at Ciel and asked, “Can we move... Is there no more danger? The Royal Medical Association just exploded...”
Some topics just now, Avena couldn’t ask directly with Adele present. Now that only the two of them were in the room, Avena spoke directly.
“It’s alright. The conflict over there won’t affect us.” Ciel shook her head.
According to the development in the simulation, even if Nia was taken away, as long as they didn’t take other actions, the royal family wouldn’t actually investigate them.
The final arrest was also because Ciel in the simulation directly interrogated high-ranking officials of the Church of the God of Order to find out Nia’s whereabouts, which caused suspicion.
However, even if she was arrested, the charge was for heresy. As long as Princess Vita did not provide the witness information from Berren City, the matter of the sample would not be investigated on Ciel. freeweɓnovel-cøm
Taking Nia away was just a private action of the Church of the God of Order. The royal family was not aware of it before. These two matters were not the same thing.
Staying hidden in the Deton Membership Hotel was also not a good idea.
Avena’s status alone, and her continuously hiding in the hotel after returning to Ansu City, was enough to arouse suspicion from others.
Instead of hiding like this, it would be better to just follow the process from the simulation. However, Nia might have to stay with Ciel for a while.
Of course, Ciel had some confidence in doing this.
It was known that the divine servant behind Amy could deceive the Tier 4 “Disciplinarian Saint” Eleanor. Ciel could completely promote the reunification of the Divine Advent Church and the Church of the Savior Goddess through Eleanor in secret.
She could even use Eleanor’s name to make Nia “convert” to the Church of the Savior Goddess and join the Church of the Savior Goddess.
This way, if the people from the Church of the God of Order wanted to do anything to Nia, they would have to think twice about whether they could afford to provoke Eleanor.
A potential Saintess converting to the Church of the Savior Goddess. Ciel believed the Church of the Savior Goddess would not miss this great opportunity for publicity.
The church reunification event would definitely drive the Church of the God of Order crazy. Forte was also misled by the incorrect information Ciel left in the simulation, directing him towards the Society of Merriment and the Keyman...
The original situation would be completely thrown into chaos due to Ciel’s involvement. The more chaotic the situation, the easier it would be for Ciel to fish in troubled waters.
Stirring up the situation and profiting from it was Ciel’s strength.
