When Emia saw Cheese again, it was nearly dusk. The battle on the walls continued, and the most elite soldiers of the royal capital continued to repel the nezumi who tried to climb over the walls. And those huge rat giants were also defeated by the trebuchets and other equipment prepared on the city walls. The battle continues to this day, and the casualties paid by the human side are actually very small.

However, judging by the information brought back by the evacuated people from the front line, or judging by the rat-like appearance of these siegers, the real battle must have begun at night. At this tense moment, the once bustling streets of the royal capital became empty and silent, and all the inhabitants of the city could only hope for the towering walls and warriors wearing the coat of arms. As everyone knows, in this royal capital, another war is also in full swing in the shadows.

"Where's Kelanti?" was Emia's first remark when she saw Cheese and Lothar. With the help of the mage's potion, the lord can already walk with a limp, but his broken left arm still needs to be cultivated for a while. But that's not the witch's concern, she only cares about her daughter's whereabouts.

"Rest assured, she's in a safe place now. Cheese held out his left hand and showed him the ring of thorns in its original condition. If something happens to Coranty, the ring will wither with it. The current condition of the ring suggests that the mage's titular fiancée is indeed alive.

Seeing that there was no problem with the ring, Aemia breathed a sigh of relief. Although she was skeptical of what Cheese called a "safe place", the terms of the agreement between Greene and the Mage contained detailed rules about what Cheese could not do to witches during the Covenant. So Aemia wasn't worried that the mage would imprison Colandy or simply throw her to some dangerous being to borrow a knife to kill.

At this time, Jack's figure also jumped off the roof next to the road. It can be seen that the wolfwalker is very unhappy right now. His hands were in his trouser pockets, his head half-bowed, his wolf-like pupils flashing with a palpitating cold light.

"What? lost it?" the mage knew when he saw the werewolf that he must have failed to catch the witch. However, Cheese didn't really care about this, as long as it was proved that the other party's identity was indeed a witch, it was enough for the mage. So when he said this, Cheese's tone was even a little ridiculous.

"Don't mention it. Let people put a set. Cut, the next time I meet that woman again, I'll definitely gouge out her eyes and wear them into a necklace. The wolfwalker spat to the side and said through gritted teeth. This kind of cat catching rats but being teased by rats made him very annoyed.

"I advise you not to do that. After the eyeball is rotten, it cannot be hung with a rope. But if you need it, I have a friend who can make nice things with his eyes. In fact, I've always wanted him to make one for me. The mage shrugged his shoulders and said something horrible as if nothing had happened.

"Eyes, have you touched Kiri?" said Emia with a frown as she listened to the werewolf's complaints.

"Is this the woman's name? Good, it seems that at least I know what to call someone to curse. Jack said with a grim smile.

"So, then, that one, uh, Miss Kiri, is a member of your former witch order?" Cheese tilted his head, and the conclusion was not hard to come to a conclusion. Besides, Emia had told her about the witches.

"Yes. It's just that when I left the Witch Order, she was very young. But by that time, her eyes were impressive enough. The blonde witch nodded, her veil swaying gently with the movement.

"A young witch. The mage frowned slightly. This does not bode well, not every young witch is educated enough, and the little girls who use their abilities to do things around can often cause terrible chaos. And if a group of witches takes such members with them when they go out, it means that they are either unavailable, or they simply don't care about the lives of the inhabitants of this kingdom.

"That's right. When I just came, I met Kuira. It's the same guy I told you about earlier. Emia told Cheese what had happened to her, and since she had decided to fight alongside the Mage, she didn't want to make Cheese doubt her sincerity by concealing it.

"Coola, do you mean the witch of your previous witch clan who was about the same age as Lady Green?" Cheese's brow furrowed. With the youngest witch and the oldest witch in this hunt, I'm afraid there is no room for negotiation at all.

"Yes. "She and her mother should be about the same age." Although the mother may be a few years younger, the difference is not too big. And when I saw her just now, she still had a lot of magic in her. ”

The witch's words sent the mage deep in thought. He began to realize that the sudden appearance of this group of witches could most likely disrupt many of the things that had been planned. If nothing else, when another powerful force of witches emerges in the city, the loyalty of the dark dwellers is a problem. But the most important thing at the moment is to understand the purpose of these witches.

"Did you two hear anything about the witches of the Witch Order when you met them, and did they just come for revenge?" asked Cheese with a deep groan.

"What, you're worried they're going to help the nezumi, but what's in it for them?" Jack immediately understood what the mage meant, and he thought back to his brief encounter with a witch named Kirly, but didn't notice that the other had mentioned it.

"I haven't heard anything about that either. Emia said. Of course she was lying, and it was clear from Kouira's words that the witches were aware of the plague's spreaders and had most likely become his accomplices. But Emiah didn't dare tell Cheese about it, because she was afraid. She fears that Cheese will flee if she feels unable to stand up to the enemy's forces. And the mage can walk away, but she and Kolandy, who are blocked here by the witch group, will definitely not be able to escape.

However, Cheese couldn't see through the witch's lies just by listening to them, so he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. In fact, this is Emia's concern, in her eyes a witch group is too powerful to fight alone, but for the mage from the Gray Tower, the existence of witches with very detailed information is really not difficult to deal with. If it weren't for Green's desperate need for her help, Cheese probably wouldn't have come into contact with these witches at all.

"Well, it looks like we're going to have to find time to talk to these ladies while we're dealing with rats. Lady Aemia, I think you'll have to tell me more about that Kuira. The mage shrugged his shoulders and said.
