Chapter 7: The Inquisition

"I have to go. April thinks Lily is having a good time here, but thinks it's time to get down to business, "Do you know where the witch judgment is?"

"Ah, I know......" Aya looked a little uneasy when she heard this, "It feels so scary there." ...... I don't know if it's an illusion, but I can smell blood when I pass by. ”

"It's not surprising that there smells of blood in that kind of place. Aprile didn't feel anything out of harmony.

"That...... I've heard that some of the people who were arrested were innocent. Aya was nervous about the subject: she didn't know if it was true or not.

"I've heard of this too, but it's mostly a rumor. Aprile was quite firm on the question, so she refused: "It's almost impossible for a witch to catch a mistake." All of them need to be closely inspected, after all, if they are caught, they will be executed, so they must be cautious. ”

"Is that so......" Aya didn't seem to agree, and her expression was full of regret: "But the rumors are very fierce, saying that as long as you stuff enough money, you can let the girl with a grudge be taken away as a witch." ”

"There are all kinds of rumors...... "The more April listened, the more helpless she became: "Although I don't feel like this, it's not impossible." ”

"yes, yes, so I feel horrible. Aya seemed to be panicking: "I feel like I've really caught a lot of witches...... Without saying a word, they were all killed. On our side of Eloa, we'll just be locked up. ”

“...... But as long as the witch's power awakens, she will basically still be executed. It's rare to see a witch who can control her magic. April pondered for a moment: "But there will be no public executions." But even these cities that publicly execute witches will not be bled to death with a nail stab execution table as before. It's all done in a very efficient way, and it's not very cruel in this regard. ”

"Yes...... But it still looks like it hurts. Na Aiya seemed to have been frightened, and her heart palpitated: "I tell you, someone used to cut my neck with an axe, and he didn't cut it many times, and it hurt me so much." ”

“...... No, that's just because Aya's bones are too hard. If you are an ordinary person, your neck will definitely be broken. It won't hurt much. Aprile hesitated for a moment and gave this answer.

But what's the deal with someone slashing you in the neck with an axe......

"You're looking for the Inquisition, right?" only to realize that the topic seemed to be off, so Aya hurriedly pulled the topic back. She pointed to a building and said, "There it is." ”

"Good. April looked in the direction Aya was pointing, nodded, and decided to go. But seeing that the group was having such a good time, April decided to let Lily stay here for a while: "Lily will play with them first, I will go to the Inquisition first." ”

"Ah, good ......" Aiya hesitated for a moment, and hurriedly asked before Aprily left, "The ...... Why did you go to the Inquisition?"

"See the employer. "April didn't want to talk about it because she didn't know much about it herself.

"Oooh...... I know. That Aiya suddenly realized: "After all, the world is not peaceful, and the people of the Inquisition also have a commission to give you." ”

...... April just nodded and left in a hurry. She was anxious to see her employer.

The witch's judgment was not far away, and Aprile flew for a short time before she arrived.

The execution ground is not far away. You can see blood on the ground.

I don't know how many witches have been killed there in the past few years.

After a cursory glance at the execution ground, April explained to the prison guards that she wanted to see her employer, who was named Lena. When the guard offered to wait for a reply with a skeptical, "I haven't heard of a witcher coming," Aprily began to wait patiently for permission to be issued.

The more she waited, the more uneasy she became.

Sure enough, the guards reported back and said that April could not meet.

"Why?" Hearing such a result, Aya naturally expressed dissatisfaction: "The meeting should be in accordance with the regulations. ”

"You're going to see Lena, right?" the guard grimaced, "She can't meet now." ”

"......" Aprile frowned when she heard this.

The thought of the blood stained on the letter made her heart feel uneasy again.

"It can't be that you're too badly injured, is it?" Aprile didn't intend to shy away from it, and asked bluntly, "Fainted?"

"It's none of your business. The guards didn't bother to continue to accompany them, so they finished in a hurry, apparently intending to end the topic: "Are you done with what you want to say? ”

"Ah...... Can I go in and see her?" Seeing that the guard was about to close the door, Aprily hurriedly asked, "I'm quite worried about her condition. ”

"Hey, Miss...... Don't you understand?" the guard turned around in confusion and looked at her, "She can't talk to you in her current situation. I heard that she asked the Demon Hunter to do something, but she definitely can't let you meet now. You're just going in vain. What's more, there are rules for daily visits, and if you go to see her now, you can only wait until tomorrow to come back. ”

"Okay......" Thinking that it would not be convenient for the other party to continue talking, Aprili had to give up, but she was still full of regrets: "That...... Can you tell me how her injuries are?"

"Probably not dead. I didn't see it with my own eyes. The guard became irritable: "Have you finished asking?" Staying here all the time gets in the way of my work. ”

Your work feels pretty quiet, doesn't it...... Glancing at the wine glasses and half-empty bottles in the guardhouse, April didn't let disdain on her expression.

Drinking for most of the day really felt like what jailers would do.

After all, prison work is very easy during the day, and it can be a little more intense at night. After all, how can any fool escape from prison in broad daylight?

Looks like I won't be able to see Lena now...... April thought about it for a while, but wanted to know more about her employer anyway.

So, she tried to get information from the guards again.

"Huh, do you still want to ask me?" the guard glanced at April's body from time to time, and at the same time there was a pang of distress, "Huh...... It was not good for people to see me talking to succubi. ”

I'm really sorry for you if they're succubi...... Aprili came up with this teasing line in her heart, but she still didn't say it.

"You go, I don't want to say anything more to the succubus. I've finished explaining everything to you, and you can ask someone else about other things. Unexpectedly, the man showed a face full of disgust, and directly said it so deadly.
