The Witch Hunter System

”Considering what happened in the Blackmoon Region a while back, someone must have relayed the news to Blackthorn City. Perhaps the queen dispatched an inquisitor to investigate, ” Linetta speculated with surprise.

The lowest-ranking inquisitors in the kingdom were at least Earl-rank nobles.

”Surely not, right? ” Lillias doubted before adding, ”The situation in Blackmoon Region was indeed very dangerous for us back then, but even if many people died, it shouldn ’t be serious enough to summon an inquisitor… probably. ”

Lillias became unconfident the more she thought about her reasoning.

”It ’s hard to say, Lady Lillias. I ’m not in a position to comment on the queen, but it doesn ’t need to be a big issue for our sovereign to dispatch an inquisitor for investigation, ” Captain Rhys inserted his opinion.

”Right… If it ’s about our sovereign, anything could happen, ” Linette agreed with a nod.

No one could guess the thoughts of a Transcendent Witch, especially the Transcendent Witch of Black Rose, who was considered a little eccentric.

When it comes to managing the kingdom, whether they were big or small, everything was up to the ruler ’s whims.

”What do you think, Vaan? ” Linette turned to him and expressed her interest in his opinion.

”What do I think? ” Vaan paused for a moment before he replied with a mysterious smile, ”Well, let ’s just say the City Lord of Blackmoon City is in big trouble, my Lady. ”

”Why ’s that? ” Linette pressed with one of her brows raised, hoping Vaan would provide a more detailed answer.
