The black figure on the cross did not answer the mage's words. And the dark body of the Wizard Shadow makes it difficult to visually observe their mental state. He fainted. Emia was still dressed in a red dress, and the witch, who didn't look much older than Si, walked up to the mage, looked at Jason and said, "There's no way he'll be able to stay awake without energy to provide him." ”

"Doesn't it sound like he's going to be a model prisoner, isn't that a bit of a fuss?" Cheese's eyes were filled with a small amount of magic, and only then could he keep his sight here. And, due to the use of magical horizons to observe the outside world, the mage quickly noticed that even in such a situation, Emia had several defensive spells. Some of these spells are discernible to the Cheese, but more are special spells derived from the blood of witches.

The witch shrugged her shoulders and ripped the strands of hair from her sideburns. "That being said, as you can see, I can't be sure when he actually passed out. If it weren't for the continuous decline in the energy in his body after sending it, I am afraid that I would not have given him a chance to manifest his body. "Like Cheese, who was raided by the Wizard Shadow without any protection, Emia didn't act much better than her daughter.

"Can he still be interrogated, or has he already told you everything he knows?" the wizard frowned, and he could tell that Jason was not in a healthy state. In fact, under the constant bright light, the edges of the black humanoid have already appeared blurred, which is a precursor to the imminent collapse of the wizard's shadow. Now Cheese has to worry about whether this traitor will be able to hold out until he tells everything he knows.

"I'm sorry he said there are some things I can only tell you. Aimia shook her head slightly, an apologetic smile on her lips. "Rest assured, this room isn't really going to kill him, so you have plenty of time to talk to him. ”

Cheese didn't ask why he didn't ask Jason why the Wizard's Shadow was something that Greene had summoned, and that Emiah, her daughter, must have a way to control Jason, who had been abandoned by his new master. And the reason why the witch didn't do this was obviously because she didn't want to waste her magic at this time. I had heard that Emia had plans to leave the kingdom with her daughter, so it seems that this possibility is indeed not low.

The mage walked about five steps to the cross that bound Jason and looked up at the latter. "Wake him up, it won't take long. The witch received the command, and spat out a few short syllables, and a shadow of countless hair-thick black lines poured out from her feet, and rushed down the glowing crystal ground like a fish under the surface of the sea into the cross connected to the ground, and burrowed into Jason's body one by one.

With an electric twitch, the Wizard Shadow's head slowly lifted. Jason was silent for a few seconds before making a sound like sandpaper rubbing against a rock, and it took a few more seconds before he really regained his ability to speak. "You're here. He said weakly, it felt like a dying patient.

"Let's all keep it simple. The mage clasped his hands to his chest, his two hands hiding in the shadows of his robes, ready to cast spells at any time, but none of this was evident from his facial expressions, "You tell me everything you know, and I'll let Lady Aemia give you a happy ending." "Cheese doesn't like interrogation, but as a spellcaster, it's a must-have. After all, there are some knowledge that others are not willing to impart to you, and you can only get it in a drastic way.

"Heh," Jason sneered at the mage's suggestion, and if his short pronunciation was indeed a sneer, "the happy ending? I'd rather stay in this room forever than that. ”

Emia frowned, Jason's words were different from what she had promised to give Cheese. The witch subconsciously raised her hand, ready to punish this dishonest criminal. But Cheese waved his hand, motioning for Emia not to do it yet. "Lady Aemiah, could you please go out for a moment, and give us a little personal space. "But—" The witch naturally didn't want to leave the room, not that she was worried about the safety of the cheese, but in such an undercurrent situation, it was not a bad thing to know more. But as soon as she spoke, she was interrupted by the mage. "Don't worry, I'm not in danger. And you should also check out Colanty. ”

Perhaps it was the rare hard-line attitude in the tone of Cheese's voice, but Emia didn't say anything more. After the witch in the red dress closed the door, the mage spoke again. "Say, now you can speak. Jason smiled, and although the mage couldn't see the details of the dark shadow's face, the atmosphere on him changed. For a moment, Cheese even thought that he had fallen into the trap of the other party, and was almost about to release his magic to fight back. But Jason still didn't break free from the cross. For his race, the luminous body made of crystal was the most difficult chain in the world to unravel.

"What are you going to tell them when you walk out of this room? "The Wizard's Shadow question sounds strange, but Cheese clearly knows what the other party really means. "I'll tell them you've accepted another group of witches in order to stay in this world..." "Well, the hired of the Lost Witch Order, and take an oath of allegiance. The betrayal was premeditated, and you revealed the information about the emergencies we encountered. ”

"Isn't it a reasonable inference?" said Jason, "that humans would do anything to survive. ”

"But you're not human. Cheese's voice grew colder, "I've never heard of a wizard's shadow being afraid of death, because technically you've never been born. So you may indeed have nostalgia for this world, but you will never take the initiative to find yourself a new master for this reason, which is not in line with the inertia of your race. So, what's the truth, Jason?"

Listening to the mage's words, the black humanoid's neck actually stretched, and his pitch-black face came closer to the cheese's face less than a step away. "The old hosts are right, you are indeed different from them. The mage tried to keep his composure, he didn't expect that Jason, who was bound, still had the ability to change his form.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just too excited. As if sensing the state of the cheese, the Wizard Shadow took the initiative to speak, "Then, it's time to carry out the master's final orders." It's time to tell you something, the truth. But before I do that, I'm going to ask you one more question, you know, broker, that name?"

"Sounds like some kind of middleman?" The term broker is no stranger to mages, but the person who uses this code name should not be a big deal in Cheese's eyes.

"Yes, he or he is indeed a middleman. And the difference with those mortals is that this broker never loses money in business. ”

"I don't know what you mean, are you talking to me about some merchant or something like that?" Jason's words completely confused Cheese, who couldn't figure out what the dark shadow was trying to say.

"Heh, it's actually very understandable. In your human terms, he is indeed a businessman. It's just that the things he sells are more terrifying and creepy. ”

"A devil? This broker is a devil?" If there is any merchant in the world who is the most feared, it is the devil who is famous for his soul trading. Therefore, the mage's first reaction after hearing the other party's words was the devil.

"No, no, no, he's certainly not the devil, and besides, he's much older than all the devils. Broker, no one says what kind of existence he is, what we know is that what happens in this world, especially the so-called big things, has his shadow behind it. He buys goods like the most old-fashioned merchant and sells them. The difference is that he never loses money. ”

Cheese's brow furrowed even deeper. "I still don't understand, the broker you're talking about is an out-of-world existence?"

"No, the broker is... Yes..."

When Jason's body melted into the light like dew from the sun, Cheese really couldn't tell how he was feeling at the moment. Apparently, Wizard Shadow had a lot to say before something could be sent out of this world. It could be the broker he was talking about, it could be something else, the mage wasn't sure. What Cheese knows is that his conversation with Jason was monitored from the start, and was interrupted at this point due to some kind of bad taste. It's a bad feeling, it's very bad.
