Oops, I became the witch's substitute

Most people don’t know what happened that day. Among the demons, Anastasia, who was considered to have the greatest hope of becoming the next demon king and was close to the power of a god, was killed by Ferlin, and her deputy, the great demon Milito, also died. They were the backbone of the demons. Since then, the demons have become a mess.

After that battle, Selena took in the refugees from Arland County and cooperated with the surrounding friendly forces to encircle and suppress the demons in Arland County, achieving brilliant results, but was repelled by the crooked dragon and almost lost troops.

This battle is still considered a turning point in the power of the light and dark camps of Kalan.

Soon, Selena came to the field hospital with a letter and found Scathach next to a seriously injured person. Scathach was wearing a nun's costume and was helping the injured change gauze.

Unexpectedly, Scathach's body still had some changes, such as the appearance of dragon wings and tails, and now she has become a real little dragon girl.

Selena shouted, "Scathach, come and see whose letter this is from."

Scathach heard someone calling her, and she used her strength to bandage the wounded. The wound of the seriously injured man stopped bleeding successfully, but he couldn't help twitching. However, he was a man after all, and he didn't cry out even after biting the stick in his mouth.

Scathach's eyes were dim, and she was in a depressed mood: "Whose letter is it? Is it from sister Fili? I heard that sister also disappeared in Kalan, I don't know how the situation is..."

Selena's eyes flashed a trace of melancholy. In the subsequent battles, she met Guinai, and now they are still comrades-in-arms. Naturally, she heard about Fili, but she didn't believe that Fili would die, and she didn't tell Scathach.

Selena shook the letter in her hand: "Unfortunately, it's not from Fili, but from Fili. Carol's magic that day was successful, and he survived."

"From brother Fili?" Scathach's eyes lit up, and she stood up quickly. With a turn, her big tail slapped the seriously injured soldier in the face, and the soldier didn't have to continue to suffer, and got anesthesia.

After reading the letter, Scathach was relieved from the bottom of her heart. She couldn't help but throw herself into Serena's arms and cried softly.

"Cry if you want to. Since you have received the letter, I believe that Flin will come to us soon." Serena also wanted to complain to her face. Flin was too worrying this time.

Soon, Serena contacted Carol again and told her the news of Flin's "resurrection".

In the water mirror of the communication, Carol held her chin and thought: "What about Fili? Is there any news about her?"

Serena smiled bitterly: "No..."

Carol snapped her fingers and suddenly laughed: "Serena, don't look bitter. I believe Fili will appear soon. But there is something very important, you have to cooperate with me."

Serena said she would try her best: "You tell me?"

Carol said: "If Flin finds you, you can contact me at a convenient time, but if Fili finds you, you must tell me as soon as possible."

Serena couldn't help but tilt her head: "Okay, but this is too discriminatory. That guy survived a disaster, Everyone, please be nice to him."

Carol took out her pocket watch from her pocket: "Since Felina is back, Felina will probably show up soon, so just wait. By the way, how about we make a bet, Serena? Felina should find you first."

Serena asked curiously: "Why are you so sure?"

Carol put her hands on her hips: "Anyway, let's make a bet. If Felina finds you first, you can treat me to a good meal when you come back. If Felina finds you first, I will make you a weapon that is not inferior to the Holy Sword. Remember what I said, contact me as soon as Felina shows up, even if you are being beaten up by others. "

Volume 2 Family Chapter

Chapter 131 Carol's Alchemy Workshop

The system of this world is destined to make personal force noble. The existence of a powerful noble family must be lit by the ancestors themselves. Otherwise, if they just gather a few melons and two dates, they will not be able to make achievements on the battlefield and expand their territory. It is even a question whether they can learn to survive in the wilderness like Bear Grylls.

Fundamentally speaking, the classes in this world are divided by fists.

After years of development, the glory and decline of a family ultimately depends on its foundation and whether its descendants are powerful. In a sense, it is the same as drawing cards. It is enough to have one SSR in a generation. If there is none, you have to keep a low profile, otherwise you will eventually be replaced by capable people below.

It can be seen from the rise and fall of the world's major famous families. As time goes by, the powerful families can still pass on the fragments of the godhood to the next generation and become iron nobles, retaining a little ruling power. The weaker ones will probably disappear in the long river of history and become a fleeting royal family.

The magic family Morgana family can be said to be possessed by the emperor of Europe. Although not all the heads of the family are pure gods, the average quality of the recent generations is indeed good. Of course, in addition to the theory of bloodline, the family's business philosophy, book-based, education absorption, excellent talent selection mechanism and political marriage are also indispensable to achieve such glory.

However, the contemporary head of the family did not think about becoming bigger and stronger to create glory again, but instead hid an unknown secret...

Miriam, Black Cat Pavilion Hotel, Carol's workshop.

Carol gently shook the test tube, picked up the monocle to unfold the magic circle, and observed the mysterious existence inside: "The blood curse on Filin is really unusual."

Last time, a huge explosion occurred with a slight touch. This time, Scathach collected and sent a large number of samples, and Carol studied them directly.

"Recently, the curse has begun to weaken at night. Although it has not completely disappeared, it can make Filin feel much better. The time of this change coincides with the time when Filin was sacrificed to the Blue Moon Goddess." After checking the blood, Carol leaned back in the chair, pushed the table with her legs to slide to the nearby bookcase, and took down a church scripture.

"The Blue Moon Goddess is kind and gentle, but the existence of gods has always only protected believers. It was helpless to sacrifice Filin at that time, but now he has received protection, which means that he has made great contributions to the Blue Moon Goddess, enough to achieve the contribution of being selected as a heavenly official or a heroic spirit." Carol held the pages of the book, read the heroes who received protection in history, and then closed the book.

"The contribution that could win the favor of the gods should be conveyed by Fili, who exposed Pandora's conspiracy and prevented the disaster of world destruction. Huh... It was so close." Carol sighed, then stood up, walked to the desk and opened her notes. "From what Miss Guina said, the moment they got the information from the light elves, Fili accidentally said Pandora's name and exposed the location. How could such a senior witch make such a mistake? Did she eat mushrooms while listening to the story? And she revealed the news to Flin in such an environment."

Alchemy, astrology, and divine arts are special subjects outside the magic world. In the eyes of the magic world, these three categories belong to unorthodox ways, and toads pretending to be frogs are ugly and playful, but the strong people who have achieved achievements in these three subjects are all existences that cannot be underestimated in the magic world.

As a top alchemist, Carol is extremely sensitive to the passage of time: "Filin was seriously injured and Fili disappeared, Fili appeared and Flin came back. Judging from the time described by Scathach and Kuina, the relationship between these two people is really strange. The similarity of their names is also perfunctory. Could they be the same person? Well, that's not the case. I can't even tell the real person apart."

In this world, there are surnames in addition to names. In daily life, the pronunciation of two people's names is similar, but now this relationship of living and dying together makes Carol think more.

But this is just a guess. After a long time of getting along, in Carol's senses, both Flin and Fili are real and vivid existences, but when you doubt, you will be curious, and when you are curious, you will work hard to find out the truth. Although it is to explore other people's secrets, it is really curious.

Suddenly, the magic stone used for communication sent a sense, and the water mirror was unfolded. Selena was announcing the good news on the other side of the water mirror, and you can see that Fili has reunited with everyone.

Carol showed a meaningful expression, expressing her joy, and couldn't help asking Fili: "We haven't contacted each other for so long, it must be because Pandora is too difficult to deal with? By the way, why is Serena contacting me, where is the communication stone I gave you?" Fili on the other side of the water mirror waved her hands hurriedly, swaying from side to side in the embrace of Serena and Scathach, while looking for an excuse to perfunctorily deal with Carol: "Because Pandora is too dangerous, I lost everything on my body during the fight." Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with this excuse. When a warrior fights a beast, it is hard to guarantee that the equipment and props on his body will not be damaged, but Fili is the great witch of the rumored godhood, how could she be so embarrassed? In order not to alert the enemy, Carol did not continue to make things difficult for Fili. Besides, she was happy to see Fili back. After chatting for a few words, she interrupted the communication. Her eyes moved to the opened letter on the corner of the table. Carol hurried over to restore the original state: "Filin must come back next. He has no way to stay in Kalan. Let's observe carefully at that time~."

Sure enough, a few days later, Flin appeared in the Black Cat Pavilion panting. He was quite embarrassed after traveling day and night.

Filin was miserable. He had to leave a false clone in Kalan. On the one hand, he continued to pay attention to the situation here, and on the other hand, he protected Serena, Scathach and others, so as not to die directly in danger. At this point, Flin also attaches great importance to the friendship forged as Fili.

But this means that when the protection of Qingyue comes at night, he cannot use false power to cover up his identity, otherwise the clone left in Kalan will disappear.

"Hey, why did you come back suddenly and leave without saying goodbye to Serena? Are you too incompetent as an adjutant? Be careful that Serena comes back and beats you up."

Carol appeared leisurely at the door of the hotel to greet Feilin, her eyes seemed to be inspecting a treasure.

Feilin still doesn't know about Carol's research during this period, and he has other worries.

"Don't mention it. I thought that retrieving Scathach would be an easy task, but I met a difficult demon and was almost beaten to death." Felin sincerely thanked him, "Thanks to your method, I survived by chance. I will keep the kindness in mind. By the way, how many letters have been sent to my home during this time?”

Carol brought a box: "It's all here."

Feilin's head was as big as the two: "Why are there so many?"

Carol shrugged: "Yes, your family loves you very much. They send you letters every three days."

Regarding Feilin's letters, Carol did not have the time or interest to peek at all of them. She only peeked at a few letters with special materials because she couldn't hold back her curiosity.

For example, when Carol opened the last letter, she realized that the Flin family was urging her to go home.

"You didn't peek, did you?"

"Humph, do you know the motto of alchemists? We alchemists should have strong curiosity about everything, but we should also pretend not to be curious and study the world with a calm mind. Besides, I respect other people's privacy the most. How could I secretly open letters?" Carol crossed her arms and her nose almost turned up. "Do you know how hard it is to pretend to be you? Every time I see that businessman, I have to remember and imitate your daily movements and tone. It’s really tiring.”

Feilin didn't believe it, but Carol's next words made him a little wary.

"By the way, Feilin, you are obviously a spy, but are you also good at pretending and imitating others?"

"Of course, this is the basis."

Felin did not shy away from this topic and treated it with a normal attitude: "But you also know that I am cursed. Now I am not afraid of death, so why should I be afraid of death? I have no enthusiasm for the spy work in Miriam. , living on empty wages is my goal.”

This is all true. In Feilin's mind, his Earl Tran was proud of being ruthless and ruthless, and he was the kind of person who could bite a dog without suffering any loss.

Carol immediately said: "Then before you asked me for help, did you also ask Feili for help? How did she help you?"

Feilin raised a smile: "Secret."

Carol suddenly hugged Feilin's hand: "Just tell me, brother Feilin~ That shouldn't be an important secret, right?"

Feilin hurriedly shook off Carol: "Stop making trouble, this is a matter of life and fortune..."

Carol's face suddenly became serious: "Then let's settle the score. I saved you and you owe me a favor, but we alchemists pay attention to the principle of equivalent exchange and prefer cash transactions. Now let's calculate the cost. Please pay the balance of the life-saving grace."

Feilin was convinced: "Sister, why are you so curious about me all of a sudden?"

Carol nodded and patted her chest generously: "I am the kind of person who wants to repay favors. Besides, it is normal for alchemists to value profits. They just want to squeeze you while the favor is still there. So tell me, did you and Feili establish a life-sharing contract? She helped you suppress the blood curse?"

Um? Why is this? What inference? Has Carol been investigating herself all this time? Are you too busy? Instead of studying serious alchemy subjects every day, come to study yourself? A small drop of sweat appeared on Feilin's forehead. Specifically speaking, the two of them were not particularly familiar, that is, the relationship between the hotel manager and the guest. Why were you so curious.

Feilin was silent for a moment: "She is indeed helping me. There is a deal between Feili and I. The specific content is not convenient to disclose. That's it."

Carol yelled and grabbed Feilin and ran upstairs: "Come on, follow me into the house and let me check your body. I sacrificed you to the Green Moon Goddess, and you gained divine power." Can you let me observe your physical condition after treatment? "

Feilin forced a smile: "This... now..."

Carol's face was full of displeasure: "Feilin, Feilin, my sister cares about you, are you playing games with her, right? I asked you if this is a secret and which is a secret, and even the blood test was unreasonable. I can save your life. Yes."

In fact, for Carol, she believes that everything can be made, and there is no unsolvable problem in the world. The reason why the planet is not levered is just that there is a long enough lever missing.

What can Felin say? Looking at the time, it was still early at night, so there was no need to worry, Feilin followed Carol.

The inspection process was relatively normal, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. Carol also analyzed Felin's blood curse and actually came up with an alchemical suppression idea, which attracted Felin's attention.

Carol unfolded the magic circle in her hand and gently stroked Feilin's back: "Your body, I don't usually see you exercising, but your muscles are surprisingly strong and your figure is also very good. How do you do it?"

Feilin sat up straight: "You don't think that the only way to become stronger is to train with weights every day like Serena does? I also have my own unique way of exercising."

Carol snorted and pinched Feilin's waist gently: "Are you talking about using magic to put a burden on the muscles and then training them repeatedly? If this is the case, dead muscles will develop, and the body will become stiff by then. The joints should all grow together. Oh, the flow of magic in your body has been carefully adjusted. Did you think of it yourself? Also, you often use gravity magic on your body, right? No wonder you are not tall or strong enough. "

Felin was surprised that Carol could see his secret at a glance, but he couldn't help but have the idea of ​​exploring it: "So I control the use of force every moment, just like the techniques I taught Scathach. "

"You're obviously a man, but you like dancing with bells?"

"No matter what the method is, as long as the exercise effect is very good and secretive, it will be difficult for others to detect it."

As long as you are secretly involved, others will not be able to guard against it.

After the inspection, Feilin put on his shirt.

Carol was like a top student who just liked to solve problems: "But to learn more about this curse in your family, it's best to find a few more different samples. I'm almost losing interest in you."

Feilin was absent-minded: "Ah, is that right? It started in chaos and finally gave up."

Carol came up with Enil's idea: "I heard that you have a sister. Let me see her blood."

Feilin thought about it and said, "I'll ask her for her personal opinion, but it's after the new year and I have to go back to the family immediately."

Carol raised her eyebrows: "What are you waiting for? I'll go with you. I can just find a place to live in your territory. Of course, it would be even better if you can invite me to your mansion."

Filin pondered for a moment, thought about it, and couldn't help shaking his head: "Carol, just stop here. Thank you for helping me so much. Forget about ordinary research. If you go home with me, you will be involved in danger. You don't need to take risks."

Carol opened her eyes wide: "I'm curious, and you are also a nobleman. If I help you get rid of this curse, you must thank me heavily. I've been short of money in recent years."

Who would believe it!

Chapter 132 The Value of Filin

Carol took the initiative to express great curiosity about Filin, and finally even took the initiative to confess the matter of peeking at the letter. The two talked about Filin's whimsical ideas of spies eating empty salaries and helping Filin choose a grave after his death. Filin's mood was about to collapse. Seeing that the sun was setting, if he didn't leave, he would kick his legs and become Fili and be exposed directly.

Seeing that she couldn't stop Filin, Carol immediately prepared a gift: "Don't go, I remembered that I made a few useful magic devices, and I'll give them to you."

The magic devices produced by Carol are indeed useful. As far as communication devices are concerned, it is not an exaggeration to take the water mirror UI as a science fiction product. Filin thinks that she can go to the world of Magical Girl Nanoha for employment, and she will definitely have a future.

But the life-saving grace also shows that there is a backdoor in Carol's alchemy products, and she can observe and control the power of the magic device at any time.

It's not good or bad. It's understandable that alchemists also have to guard against others using their own props against themselves. If it were such good intentions, Filin would accept it. Carol is not a voyeur. Even if he was peeped, Filin would try his best to look back, but he has to change at night now, so how dare he let Carol peek?

"Thank you, goodbye." Filin answered instantly and went out with a box of letters.

Filin also has several small properties outside the hotel as a hidden place. All the spies sent by the family before were feminized and thrown to the border by the witches. Filin was not polite and used the temporary base they used for hiding.

Be prepared, open the letter, Filin began to understand the instructions of the family during this period, and then noticed what he missed in these three months.

Main line, he was away alone, Miriam's intelligence department was directly paralyzed for three months, the family changed from issuing orders to asking questions, and finally because of the Bahamut incident, ordered Filin to go home at the end of the year to report, this is an unchangeable fact.

Branch line, poison Hecate.

Filin, who was reading the letter, felt the changes in his body, sighed softly, stretched out his hand to condense a water mirror beside him, looked in the mirror, and felt that the Fili he made was really beautiful, as beautiful as a large hand-made figure, and had no other thoughts. He felt that the old lady was so cute and lovely and continued to read the letter.

In the Bahamut incident, Filin, Enil, and Orfa basically reached the passing line. Because they snatched back some star beast samples, the family believed that they had mastered some of Bahamut's characteristics, and they were rewarded.

Filin is Miriam's intelligence chief, so she stayed in Miriam first. She was not capable of Enil's secret mission, so she handed it over to Filin. Orfa was just to disgust Arius, and the effect was achieved. The family believed that after getting the information about Bahamut, they knew what equipment and props Arius would make around the star beast corpse in the future, and established relevant files, so they no longer paid attention.

Count Xie finally wanted to give Hecate an elbow, and instructed Filin to sabotage the witch's night banquet.

Fili's brain was slightly down. She had to go back to the family to report, and let Hecate lie down. She couldn't figure out whether the family was schizophrenic or she was schizophrenic. Forget it, go home first.

Go home, this is a word that is unfamiliar to Filin.

The next morning, Philin returned to the hotel and told everyone the news. Nishinohana, who was familiar with him, was very surprised, and even the snow girl Aislin was curious.
