"What...what's going on outside?" Lucille was awakened by a loud noise outside. When she woke up, she found Sean sitting next to her.

The palm of his hand was in a state of activating magic power, and one eye was closed.

"You're awake, Lucille."

Boom!

At this time, an explosion sounded outside, and the little girl was so scared that she instinctively hid behind Sean.

"Don't worry, we just encountered a battle outside."

"Battle?" Although Lucille was young, she was not unfamiliar with these words. She had heard the hypothesis of possible attacks many times during the journey in the past few days.

"Then should we go and help Sister Rachel, mentor?" The small body stood up.

Even when he stood up, he was still not as tall as Sean when he was sitting...

"Lucille, you must remember what I'm going to say next, and don't tell anyone, not even your sister Rachel!" Sean doesn't need anyone's permission to do anything, but he has always been a lone ranger, but now he brings his future mentor with him.

Originally, he didn't want to take Lucille with him if he was going to follow Occam to find the fragments of the Book of the Dead, but he was worried about leaving a little girl like her anywhere.

She is no longer the 'evil' witch who does whatever she wants twenty years later!

I need to protect myself...

"Yeah." Lucille nodded heavily. Although she didn't understand what Sean was going to do, the man in front of her was her mentor. She could ignore anyone except him.

"I will chase the enemy later. If you can catch up with me, come to a blacksmith shop in the south. Don't be discovered by anyone, especially those in our team! If you can't catch up, continue to follow Rachel and Rorschach to the imperial capital, and I will find you!" Sean repeated the possible situations.

But I was still a little worried, after all, Lucille was still too young at that time.

If Occam was kidnapped, Rorschach and his men probably would not return to the imperial capital immediately, but would search the place for a long time and contact the garrisons in the surrounding towns.

"If you can't catch up with me, just leave the same way you come to find me every day, and then I will guide you here on the third day." Sean thought about it and decided to use the beast control method to lead Lucille to find him.

In this way, you can say later that you were attacked and captured by the enemy, and then escaped by chance!

Anyway, you can say anything as long as you don't get caught.

He could have just left and ignored these alchemists, but because he had to find the whereabouts of his target, he didn't want to make the alchemists of the Kserk State hate him, otherwise he would be hunted everywhere in this country.

"Did you hear what I said?"

"Um."

Lucille nodded, her head still in a state of "Thinking!"

But now no matter what she was thinking, Sean could only force her to do it...

"Be good, don't let anyone notice." Sean believed in Lucille's strength, otherwise she would not be able to become a notorious witch in the future.

Patting the other person on the head, Sean stood up and walked out of the tent.

……………………

The battle outside is almost coming to an end.

What Aina had never expected was that these two national-level alchemists were definitely geniuses in terms of both strength and mastery of alchemy. After just a few encounters, she discovered that their talents and reaction speeds were truly difficult to deal with. Given time, they could become one of the top alchemists in the entire Kserk.

Aina had been escaping as planned and reunited with the other five people.

They had already arrived near the carriage, and were surrounded by hundreds of alchemists, with Rorschach and Rachel, the leaders, standing not far in front of them.

"How are you guys?" Ina asked.

Several team members shook their heads, and one of them even had a blade stuck in his abdomen.

"I didn't expect these two people to be so difficult to deal with. The rumors are true. The two of them are equivalent to an army!" said one of them.

Looking at the two people in front of him, he slowly walked forward.

"Who are you? Why are you kidnapping the prisoner? Are you with the prisoner?" Rorschach questioned the six people in front of him.

Only six people want to kidnap the fugitive. The plane is too naive!

But I haven't heard of Occam following that organization.

"Speak! Otherwise, we will have to make the final decision on the spot."

Compared to Rorschach's rationality, Rachel had a very angry expression. In the previous battle, the enemy injured many people on her side. They were all her companions. How could she not be angry when she saw them die?

"Hmph, you two are indeed very powerful, stronger than any State Alchemist we've encountered. It's truly an honor for us to face off against opponents like you. However... weren't you being too negligent when interrogating the prisoner? You should at least make sure the surroundings are safe."

After saying that, the six of them activated their alchemy arrays at the same time.

The air around in the fog began to flicker with the lightning that only appeared when alchemy was penetrated.

"This is……"

Rorschach looked around in surprise.

"Great Alchemy Array!"

The so-called large alchemy array is formed by the combination of countless small alchemy arrays, which requires a lot of time and sufficient strong strength. However, these people were clearly fighting with us before, so how could anyone do such a thing!

Suddenly, Rorschach subconsciously looked in the direction of the three carriages behind him...

If you look closely, you will find a figure crawling on the carriage in the middle.
