Chapter 213
Main scenario episode.
「Witch Hunt」
This scenario lives up to its name, unfolding exactly as the imagery of a “witch hunt” might suggest.
An inquisitor dispatched from the Vatican.
Among them, of course, are witches disguised within their ranks, alongside innocent victims wrongfully accused of being demons.
And, of course, the grand finale: an extravagant execution by fire.
At first glance, this scenario follows the predictable, almost cliché path of a classic story. But there’s a deeper significance to this seemingly hackneyed progression.
It marks the intensification of the conflict between the Empire and the Vatican.
Added to these external tensions, the internal struggle for the imperial throne among the Empire’s heirs grows fiercer.
