“Ugh!“

At Cedric’s words, the woman struggled violently and made a sound of pain and kept groaning.

With her tongue burned out, she could no longer speak properly.

“Rukia, how much information have you already obtained? I think that’s just the last question.”

“Oh, yes… That’s right.”

Rukia, who hesitated to answer, replied at Cedric’s cold question.

“I was just wondering if there’s any need for further interrogation later…” Cedric said as he glanced at the woman lying on the floor.

“As long as we have already reached that point, there’s no meaning in any additional questioning. Besides, we’ve got almost all the important clues, so I don’t think further interrogation is really necessary.”

The curse that spread from the tip of the woman’s tongue now engulfed her throat as well as her whole mouth.

Looking down at her still, Cedric muttered indifferently.

“After the interrogation, I told you to cut her tongue, but I can’t believe she’ll make my wish come true like this.”

His face was full of ridicule.

The woman tried to harm the most precious person to him with that tongue,

so it was appropriate to burn that tongue.

However, if I did, the information we needed couldn’t be extracted from her, and by burning the tongue of an old skinny woman could be criticized by the people as too cruel of a punishment, so I refrained from it.

“Even if there is no further interrogation, I believe you will proceed with the investigation well. Right?

“Yes, you can rest assured Your Majesty.” Rukia answered the question with confidence.

“Yes. The reputation the Magic Research Department has built up to this point can’t have been achieved solely through interrogation.”

“Of course.”

Upon hearing Rukia’s answer, Cedric took out a pocket watch and checked the time.

‘There’s not much time left until my promise with Ciel.’

Closing the watch’s lid, he casually passed by the woman trembling like a person with a seizure with her mouth burning in black.

“I think I should get going.”

“Ah yes. I will take care of the rest.” Rukia answered.

“Okay. See you next time.”

Rukia spoke to Cedric, who left the interrogation room, and Cedric nodded and walked out of the room.

Unlike when he headed to the interrogation room, his steps going to Ciel were very light.

In fact, he entered the interrogation room worried about whether the group who bought Ciel’s biological mother knew any information related to Caliberne.

After letting Rukia out for a while before the formal interrogation and canceling the voice transmission magic inside the interrogation room, Cedric asked Ciel’s birth mother, who drank the confession pill, if she knew anything about ‘The Empire’s Only Sword of Victory’.

The woman answered ‘No’.

First, it seemed that they didn’t know or was not sure about the relationship between Ciel and Caliberne behind this incident.

‘I wish it could last a few more years without knowing anything.’

If we can survive like this for another 8 years.

If I can stay as I am now…

Cedric clenched his fists with a desperate feeling boiling inside him.



“You did a great job today, Marquis Lauren.”

“No, sir. Thank you for your hard work.”

Marquis Lauren smiled as he scrambled through the papers and organised them.

“Then, I understand that when the envoys of the Dritt Kingdom’s visit, the number of people will be assigned as mentioned today.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Just then, someone knocked on the door of the conference room.

“Oh, come in.”

Entering through the open door was a familiar blonde and green-eyed man.

“I’m sorry. The Ministry of Finance has decided that they need to see the Marquis urgently…”

“Oh, I see. I’ll be there soon.” The Marquis got up and collected the papers and said.

“I’m sorry, Captain Minerva. I must take my leave first.”

“No, it’s fine. We’re roughly finished, so there’s no problem at all.”

“Yes, thank you. There’s still tea and refreshments left, so don’t worry and eat comfortably.”

Then he turned his head to glance at Kashuel and clapped his hand as if he had thought of an idea.

“Oh, and this is Duke Alehard. He came in as the first-class top Wizard this time, and he works so well at his job.”

“I’m flattered.” Kashuel blushed slightly and shook his head.

“You’ve most likely heard a lot about Minerva the Imperial Knights Commander, right?”

“Oh, yes, that’s right.”

“There will be a lot of things you two will encounter in the future, so it would be nice to have a conversation today and get to know each other.”

The Marquis glanced at the two of them with a gentle gaze and spoke.

“Then I’ll be on my way now. I hope you two have a good time.”

“Oh, wait a minute…”

However, Marquis Lauren was already distracted by the treasury’s call, so he didn’t pay attention to them anymore and left the room.

With such an awkward atmosphere, only Kashuel, and I remained.

Kashuel just stood still with a puzzled expression on his face.

At that time, I knew that we would see each other, but I didn’t seem to think that we would meet each other like this again.

“Well, please sit down first…”

“Oh, yeah.”

Kashuel quietly sat across from me and kept staring at me, but when I raised my head, he secretly avoided my gaze.

‘What should I do with this tea?’
