Magical Journey: The Other Shore Blooms on the Other Shore

Chapter 190 The City of Faith, Istchi 8

"So, what did you do?" Avelia asked curiously.

Outside the kingdom of East, four people strolled in the sunset—they had all left the borders of East, but had not lost their memories of East.

Emilia, the kingdom's sole leader, has become a madwoman, constantly accusing herself of past sins.

East is in an unprecedented upheaval. In the past, Emilia was the only one in power, but many of the councilors who were at odds with Emilia have revolted.

Normally, because Emilia is a witch, her power is extraordinary, making it impossible for people to feel any desire to resist her.

But now, this witch has committed heinous crimes. Sometimes, the truth doesn't matter; even she herself has admitted to doing so many evil things, and that's enough.

A jackal that has lost its fangs is not even as good as a dog.

As for whether her appearance was coerced or voluntary, who cares?

Just like when Emnesia was made a scapegoat, couldn't all the residents of East see through Emilia's lies? At least many of East's high-ranking officials were very clear that Emnesia couldn't possibly be the murderer.

But the kingdom needs a scapegoat to maintain stability, and Amuncia is undoubtedly the culprit.

Emilia's power is waning. Even if those loyal followers Emilia cultivated in the past supported her, what can they do now that Emilia has become like this?

Should we thoroughly investigate who caused Emilia's condition?

That's practically suicide—even a witch like her has become like this, what right do they have to fight against such an existence? Their own lives are more important. Even without Emilia, they could still rise through the ranks by siding with other politicians.

And even if we spend a lot of time and effort to find the culprit who harmed Emilia, will we be able to turn Emilia back to normal? If not, then this whole thing is meaningless.

Moreover, many politicians who disagreed with Emilia were delighted—they couldn't be happier that the murderer remained at large, as it was a huge help. With their assistance, the investigation into the mastermind behind the Emilia incident progressed slowly, and many people who had come across the truth had their memories erased.

Therefore, the departure of the four did not cause much of a stir.

Only Emnesia might be a little troublesome, but not too much.

"You don't resent us for making such a mess of your hometown, do you?" Elena asked somewhat awkwardly.

Regardless of right or wrong, she and Qin were the ones who started this whole thing.

“How could that be? Even if you weren’t there, this kind of extremely blind regime would have been exposed sooner or later,” Avelia said. “Besides, that demon hurt my sister so badly. It’s really a good thing that she’s still alive.”

As for his hometown?

My only direct blood relative right now is my older sister—the other so-called relatives are really just relatives.

People might be all smiles and flattery on a daily basis, after all, Avelia is a high-ranking member of the Knights, and they need her to do things for them. Most of the time, it's an exchange of interests.

As for feelings, there really aren't many.

It's fair to say they're all gone. If Avelia didn't possess such magical abilities, none of her relatives would have bothered with her. Therefore, leaving her home and family didn't bother her at all.

As for Emnecia...

The fact that she didn't hurl insults at the rulers of this kingdom shows she has good moral character.

"Don't change the subject. She's a witch. What did you do to her?" Avilia asked curiously, her curiosity clearly stronger than that of Emnicia.

If you had to describe her, if Emnesia is dog-like, then she's cat-like.

“I took her to see a few adult films,” Elena explained.

Short films...

Avilia suddenly thought of something unpleasant.

"Disgusting, perverted, death penalty." If these two hadn't just saved her sister, Avelia would have wanted to get as far away from them as possible.

"What is a short film?" Amysia asked, looking completely bewildered.

"It's a movie where all the people she killed come after her for revenge. It's just a little bit real," Elena said. "Avilia, what are you thinking?"

Avelia blushed instantly, turning her face away.

I hope my sister doesn't think she's unclean anymore.

I am completely devoted to my sister.

Of course, inflicting such a terrifying effect on Emilia came at a price. The biggest price was the loss of the Eye of Achilles, which was directly used as material for magic and implanted in Emilia's mind.

You should know that even witches have to be wary of the babbling of this thing during the full moon. If the entire magical artifact were smashed into your mind, anyone would go crazy.

Moreover, Emilia is a villain who has committed numerous evil deeds.

What a pity... This magical artifact won't be able to sit at the same table as the wine I stepped on in the future.

“Alright, let’s get down to business,” Elena said seriously.

"Huh, wasn't what we just talked about serious business?" Emnisia asked.

“Of course not, what kind of nonsense is this?” Elena said. “When are you going to pay me back?”

"what?"

"You're not trying to renege on your debt, are you? Let me break it down for you. I'll give you a friendly discount on the potion cost: ten gold coins. The rescue fee for Ister was fifty gold coins. That's not much, is it? And we lost a magical artifact worth several hundred gold coins. How are you planning to repay that?"

amount……

Ok……

Um...

"How much would I be worth if I sold myself to you? Do you need servants?" Amysia said shamelessly.

"Sister!!" Avelia absolutely couldn't accept it—how could her sister lose her personality? Although these two had indeed helped her a lot... but... but...

Okay, I'm out of words too.

My friends don't help me without any limits—I owe them too much. But right now, my sister and I are penniless. We do have a little money left over, but we didn't take much with us when we went out in a hurry. Giving it all away wouldn't be enough, and if we gave it all away, my sister and I would have to live on a shoestring budget from now on.

“I wouldn’t take you even if you paid us,” Elena said.

"What should we do then?" Amnesia said dejectedly, as the knight's knife in her hand was bought by Elena.

"Honestly, why do you have to think so badly of me? I was just saying—" Elena said, "I'll feel bad if I don't say it. Since we don't have the money, let's write an IOU, if we ever meet again in the future."

“Irena…I misunderstood you,” Emnicia said, moved.

"You need to correct your attitude towards me!" Elena said.

So what if I bumped into you and made a mess of things the first time we met? How come you have such a bad impression of me?

How despicable... In your eyes, am I just a narcissistic and greedy capitalist? What a joke, which capitalist is as poor as myself?
