Chapter 254: The Great Witches' Opinions
Within the mist-shrouded illusion, the Great Witches of Moyland gathered around the round table.
Everyone's gaze was focused on Queen Alice, the only one completely concealed by the mist. This tea party had been personally convened by the Queen.
“Report what you discovered in your investigation, Dorothy.” Alice signaled for Dorothy to speak.
Arachne, seated on the other side, lightly furrowed her brows, vaguely sensing that something was wrong.
“Yes.” Dorothy stood up as instructed, “After my investigation, I have basically confirmed the authenticity of the intelligence I gathered previously. The murderer who killed Count Fry was that man known as Fenrir, whose real name is Leon Set. He serves as an Inquisitor in the Church, has now inherited the title of Viscount of Allende in the Empire, and controls Temple Island……”
“I also investigated that matter. That bastard seems to be producing mana himself on Temple Island and selling it throughout the Count's former territories, stealing our business. I've already begun verifying it, and once it's confirmed, we can take action against him.” Arachne suddenly cut in.
She and Dorothy had both gone to the Empire. She couldn't possibly let Dorothy monopolize the entire report and make it look as though she hadn't investigated anything properly.
“Hehe, as expected of the woman of action among us, your efficiency never disappoints. Fortunately, I didn't report to Her Majesty too late.” Dorothy laughed, then looked toward Alice.
“Dorothy has already reported to me that Fenrir took the initiative to contact the Witch Assembly and submitted a request to trade with us. I am considering accepting it.” Alice directly stated the reason she had convened them.
