Miss Witch's Speed Run Manual

After hearing Charles' voice, the bishop's figure began to twist, gradually transforming into a well-dressed man. He looked in Charles' direction and said:
"I am the bishop of the Holy Advent Church, named Black."
He bowed his head deeply and said respectfully, "I accidentally disturbed the birth ceremony of the Holy Spirit... I beg Your Highness to forgive me."
Saint...Your Highness?
Ciel blinked.
Okay, okay, this is never going to end, is it? How come the Savior Goddess Cult and the Holy Advent Cult are exactly the same, even down to the point of mistaking someone for someone else?
Every time he sees me in the simulation, he calls me the Saint... Can I just say that it's worthy of us being from the same church?
The Savior Goddess Church was fine. Every time they only suspected that I was a saint because of some things. Whether it was Julis or Xio, they all said that they would take me back to the Holy See to confirm my identity.
The "Glory Bishop" in front of him was so good. After seeing that he summoned spiritual creatures, he directly determined that he was the so-called saint.
Could it be that the criterion for identifying a saint is whether she can create some movement from the "other world"?
Is this a rare thing? Is it that other people in this world can't communicate with the other world?
It seemed that apart from the initial disguise to hear the oracle, the rest of the time she was mistaken for a "saint", all of which were more or less related to the other world.
Charles temporarily put aside her thoughts about the other world. She didn't know much about it now and really couldn't figure it out.
She looked back at the cult bishop named Black in the distance, and after hesitating for a moment, she gave a control command to the summoned spiritual creature in her mind.
Although the bishop seemed to have completely misunderstood his identity and did not launch any offensive attack against him, he was a third-level "Glow Bishop" after all.
If there is even the slightest mistake and he notices something unusual, Charles may be controlled by him in an instant, or even directly brainwashed by him, branded with the "Sardana Mark" and become a cultist.
Only when it is completely under control can Charles feel at ease.
After Charles gave the control command, the spiritual creature kneeling in front of him slowly turned around and looked in the direction of Black.
When Black saw the spiritual creature looking back, he immediately lowered his head to avoid looking directly at it.
This is not only for your own sake, but also out of respect for the Holy Spirit.
It is a blasphemy to the Holy Spirit for a mortal to look directly at the Holy Spirit's face... Prague is not an agent like the saint, so he is quite self-aware.
But soon, Black noticed something was wrong.
He lowered his head and stared at his own shadow. A pale arm slowly emerged from his own shadow.
Prague subconsciously wanted to control Baiying, but found that Baiying was completely unable to obey his commands, as if he had completely lost any extraordinary abilities.
His body became stiff, and he watched helplessly as a terrifying head full of cracks emerged from inside and stared at him above his own shadow.
The next second, the terrifying huge mouth on the head opened, and countless slender insect legs with white limbs crawled out from the cracks, waving and hugging his head.
"what!!"
He screamed and regained control of his body. He took several steps back and looked at the shadow under him with wide eyes, but the horrible head and monster had long disappeared.
Prague raised his hand and touched his cheek. There was no wound on it, as if nothing had happened.
Fortunately... nothing happened, it was just my own illusion...
Prague looked at his arms full of cracks and the insect legs sticking out of the cracks, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
He stretched out the pair of insect wings behind him and looked back at the red-haired figure in the direction of the altar, his eyes filled with fanatical admiration.
At this moment, Charles looked at Prague in the distance and frowned slightly.
Charles didn't see any movement from the spiritual creature, but Prague in front of him suddenly began to ooze black blood all over his body.
The insect wings on his back, the horrific cracks on his face, and the dense insect limbs made it impossible for Charles not to think of the previous "Bishop of Glow" Xiu.
She could feel that Prague had been completely corrupted by the potion. With just one command from her, Prague would collapse instantly and be completely devoured by the potion, turning into a third-level zombie that only knew how to kill.
But Prague himself... seemed unaware of this.
He didn't seem to realize that he had become a half-human, half-ghost monster.
"Prague, come here."
Ciel spoke to Prague.
At the same time, the spiritual creature beside Charles also blocked in front of Charles under her control.
Charles noticed that three of the six pairs of insect wings behind the spiritual creature had disappeared, leaving only three pairs of wings on the upper body.
The insect wings will dissipate over time, and when the spiritual creature uses its ability, the speed at which the wings dissipate will continue to increase.
When we fought Nia before, the insect wings didn't dissipate this quickly...
Could it be that Nia's spirit, or the degree to which she was eroded by the potion, is far greater than that of Prague in front of her?
The corruption of "Bishop of Radiance" Prague manifested as insectification; the corruption of "Source of Cholera" Xie Lun manifested as a monster with a hard shell like a barnacle; the characteristic of the corruption of "Crown Guardian" Nia... is that her entire body turned into steel?
Charles didn't know how much of Nia's body was left. If her body was completely corrupted and turned into silver armor, did it mean that she was completely out of control?
Nia's situation might be more dangerous than he imagined. Her spirit could be easily corrupted by spiritual creatures, and her body had been severely assimilated by the potion...
Did Avina know about this? If she knew, why would she keep such a dangerous being who could lose control at any time as her bodyguard?
Maybe there are some secrets behind this that I haven't known yet, perhaps it is related to Avina leaving her family and appearing in the city of Burren.
Charles put away his thoughts and fell into deep thought as he looked at Prague who was kneeling in front of him across the pile of corpses.
The current situation has obviously achieved Charles' original purpose.
That is to eliminate all the cultists in the city of Burren, and then use the force of their opponent to sacrifice the cultists and kill the bishop of the Holy Advent sect who came to check the situation.
Reality can also develop at this pace and reach this point.
But what happens after killing Bishop Black?
A bishop died in the city of Burren...Will the Holy Adventist Sect really not send anyone to investigate?
Isn't this just a situation where the older one gets beaten after the younger one gets beaten?
There is no way to solve the problem once and for all.
The cultists at Deton Manor must be dealt with. Kitty, who has already found Adele, must also die. This bishop cannot be kept alive either...
She had to design a perfect "accident" from beginning to end, so that the three things that were bothering her could be perfectly resolved without anyone suspecting her.
Solve things before they happen.
Charles looked at somewhere in front of her, her eyes already out of focus. She tapped her chin rapidly with her index finger, creating a dense tapping sound in her brain.
She didn't even notice that, in this situation, she had an interested smile on her lips.
The "instigator" Charles seemed to think that thinking about how to kill everyone rationally was a fun thing.
She suddenly thought of something interesting and her eyes refocused on the bishop kneeling in front of her.
"Prague, tell me how you entered the Holy Advent Church, including your disguised identity outside, and all the tasks you have to carry out recently..."
Charles looked at Prague in front of him and asked with a smile, "Tell me everything."
"As you command, Your Highness the Saint..."
Prague lowered his head and spoke vaguely, starting with how to join the Holy Advent Church, and answered the questions raised by Charles one by one.
The corruption seemed to have affected the inside of his body. His throat felt like it was holding a bone, his speech became slurred, and he coughed up blood from time to time.
As time was running out, Charles interrupted Prague from time to time and asked him to just talk about the main points.
Now, Charles is still unsure whether she will still have control over Prague after the spiritual creatures return to the other world. She must understand everything and make preparations before the spiritual creatures disappear.
Soon, Charles gradually learned the details from Prague.
Prague was born in the city of Bliss. He became a pirate when he was young and was full of violence. However, during one of his voyages, their ship accidentally robbed a merchant ship carrying "missionaries" of the Holy Advent sect.
When they had looted the property and were about to set fire to the merchant ship and kill everyone, the "missionary" took action and brainwashed all the ordinary people on the two ships, imprinted the "Sardana Mark" on them, and fabricated the incident into an ordinary pirate robbery of a merchant ship.
After the baptized Prague returned to the port of Bliss, he happened to meet another "ascetic" with the "Mark of Sardana". With his help, Prague gave up his pirate career and embarked on the path of "ascetic", and has been growing in the organization until now.
Thirty years passed. Relying on his friends from his pirate days and the connections he gradually accumulated in the Holy Advent Church, he went from being a ship owner to running his own shipping company. While developing the company to raise money for the church, he also built the Port of Bliss into his own cult circle.
At this time in Prague, his disguised identity is the director of a shipping company, and his latest task is to use his position to go to the city of Buren for investigation.
Although Buren is an inland city, its canals can reach almost every port in Ansu and it has the largest canal network in the entire Ansu United Kingdom. Prague happened to have a business deal to negotiate in Buren, so he was assigned this task.
Prague himself was extremely reluctant, because he was doing very well in the city of Bliss and did not want to pay for the mistakes of others, but he would not disobey the orders of the church, so he had to take advantage of the business talks to come to Deton Manor outside the city of Burren.
This is all the information we have on Prague so far.
Charles took the time to glance at the wings on the back of the spiritual creature and found that only a pair of insect wings were left. Charles didn't have much time left.
"Prague,"
Charles looked at Prague with a smile and asked, "I heard that the 'Mark of Sardana' doesn't prevent believers from attacking each other, but rather that there is an emblem that makes them immune to attack. Only the bishop has it, right?"
This was the information Charles had learned before. The "Mark of Sardana" did not have the magical function of making cultists friendly to each other. The development of cultists relied more on the brainwashing of "missionaries".
Loyalty to the church is only one of the reasons. The real purpose of the "Mark of Sardana" is to prevent low-level believers from rebelling against believers above the rank of bishop who hold special emblems.
This is a means of control.
Charles's goal at this time was to obtain this emblem.
"Yes, Your Highness the Saint."
Prague stretched out his trembling hand and shakily took off the gold watch on his left hand.
With a slight effort, he crushed the case of the gold watch and pulled out a coin-sized emblem with the church emblem nested between a semicircle and a circle.
"You only need to hold it, and you won't be attacked by other extraordinary beings and ordinary people of level three or below who have the 'Mark of Sardana', Your Highness."
Prague raised his hands, holding the seal, and stretched it in front of Charles.
After taking the mark and looking at it carefully, Charles put it in his pocket. If he exchanged this thing for real life and kept it in the warehouse, he wouldn't have to worry about being attacked by people from the Holy Advent sect with the mark on their bodies.
The information and the mark were obtained. The next step was to wait for the spiritual creatures' existence in the world to end and check on Prague's status.
If you are still in control of it, then there is no problem.
If he is out of my control, I will shoot him before he loses control.
hum-
Suddenly, a familiar buzzing sounded in Ciel's mind. She frowned and watched her right hand flash.
Time disorder? At this time?
I haven’t had enough fun yet!
During the previous sacrifice, the "Echo of the Silver Timebinder" was used to rewind Ciel's own time, causing her to suffer the negative status of "Time Disorder" that lasted for one hour.
She could only watch her figure flickering, frowning and praying that it would be the save file she wanted.
If he were to become a gambler, by the time he woke up, he would probably have followed Prague to the Holy See of the Holy Advent Sect to become a saint - the "gambler" still had the "Sardana mark" on his body that had not been removed.
"Tsk..."
Seeing the unhealed burn on his right hand after a flash, the "instigator" Charles clicked his tongue in disappointment.
Soon, a silver-white light flashed, and the "Avenger" Charles with red curly hair and bandages on his hands replaced the "Instigator" Charles and stood in the same place.
Charles stood there for a long time, then slowly turned her gaze to Prague in front of her.
The burn on her arm irritated her nerves, and the flame of anger burned in Charles' chest.
"Why did it have to be me...who had to encounter this kind of thing..."
Ciel muttered to himself, resentment growing inside at the disruption of his peaceful life.
Her eyes slowly shifted to the left, and she saw that only one insect wing was left behind the spiritual creature.
The time is almost up.
A dark shadow emerged from behind Charles and began to search through the pile of corpses.
Soon, a dagger and a hand axe were handed to Charles by the black shadow.
After taking a quick look, she ignored the dagger beside her and picked up the hatchet.
Charles lowered his head, calmly looking at Prague who was kneeling before him, and slowly spoke:
"Lie down, Bragg."
Prague obediently lay down in front of Charles.
"Open your legs, open your arms."
