The Return of the Mad Witch
Report of Research Results

A cold and tense atmosphere enveloped the entire living room. Fortunately, Valencia had expelled all the servants and knights who were there so that they would not hear the true identity of Valencia. It's just that neither Adarian nor Helen would have expected to listen to a name from the most famous witch in the world.

"Klarybell? No kidding! The Great Witch Klarybell died over eight hundred years ago. Now you're saying yourself as Klarybell?" refute Adarian.

"Please don't lie, Valencia. Are you so unwilling to forgive us that you lied about your own identity?" timpal Helen's.

Naturally they do not believe, after all, which humans can believe something impossible? Which ordinary man believes so easily in this kind of soul-transfer?"

"I understand you don't believe my statement. However, your daughter has already handed her body to me. Try to think back to since the suicide incident at that time. I've changed since then, haven't I?"

Neither Adarian nor Helen denied the Valencia change. Their questions regarding the Valencia change are now answered already. The soul of the princess had been replaced by someone more dangerous.

"Valencia has been through a hellish life. The reason I'm in this body other than fulfilling my duty is that I have to help her get revenge. So, if you really want to apologize, you just meet Valencia directly in the afterlife," he continued.

The bodies of Adarian and Helen instantly relax, their legs withered until unable to withstand the weight of the body. They were really late, even if they kowtowed to apologize even the princess would not return.

"Valencia is really dead? I'm late. I'm so late."

Helen began to cry bitterly, Adarian desperately held a sob after knowing his beloved daughter had died of their own foolishness.

"Actually, Valencia once spoke to you on the day I was adopted by the Archduke Calestine. He expresses all his pain and tries to make you aware. Valencia loves you very much, but what a power, he doesn't get justice for that feeling."

Valencia again sat himself on the sofa. Actually he was quite confused in responding to the two of them. However, it was time for them to know what the real facts were.

"What was Valencia talking about then? Valencia's our daughter?"

Valencia nodded. "Yes, Valencia is your daughter. How are you feeling now? You're sorry, aren't you? Look at this."

Valencia shows his cut-off hand to Adarian and Helen.

"This injury?"

"This injury is an incision scar, Valencia once told you that he was repeatedly on the verge of death. It was mostly due to this injury. The girl slashed her own hands with severe depression because you didn't love her" Valencia explained.

Then suddenly Helen approached Valencia and clasped her hands together.

"Can you help us meet Valencia just once? Just once ... I am begging you terribly. I want to talk to her as a mother and child" said Helen.

Valencia nodded slowly. "I have no power to bring the soul of the dead into the world of men. It is part of the will of the god of peace. The only way you can meet Valencia is to be in the same realm as him."

For a moment they felt a deep despair. Frustration, guilt, a sense of death, everything mixed into one.

"We have to die first to meet Valencia?"

"True, you must die to meet him. I'm sure the girl has realized that you're actually under the influence of Guilla's controlling spell. Therefore, may I make an offer?"

Helen and Adarian exchanged glances, for a moment they no longer had the light of life in their eyes.

"What kind of offer do you want to offer?" ask Adarian.

"Do you want revenge on Guilla? Yes, I personally have no business with you guys, nor do I have any special hatred. If you want revenge, let me do it. Not because I am sorry to see you, but my desire to kill me is too strong. I think Guilla is a woman who deserves to be the target of my passion" Valencia said.

Valencia wants to get things done quickly. The body owner's grudge against Guilla must be resolved immediately. After all, he could not leave before the woman actually died.

"If it can make Valencia's soul calmer, then you can do it. We will both work under your orders, Your Majesty."

In the end, the two men bowed under Valencia's orders. They felt a gripping aura from the girl. Although outside he uses the body of Valencia, but inside is still a Klarybell.

"What are you talking about?" henzo suddenly came in.

"There's nothing important but an apology. It's too late for them to apologize anyway" Valencia replied.

"So, are they really sorry? What an unexpected phenomenon."

Valencia smiled faintly, Henzo seemed uncomfortable with the existence of Adarian and Helen. He still holds a grudge against what happened to Valencia in the past.

"Dad, when is the imperial birthday festival held?" ask Valencia.

"About two weeks from now."

"It's worth it to be more crowded than usual."

Right now everyone was busy preparing for the imperial birthday festival. Not a few of the people who participated in enlivening the festival.

Along with the bustle of the people in the empire, Valencia was also preoccupied with the research on Rudolf. He managed to gather some information about the man.

"The second prince — Stephen, found dead drowned in the palace lake. The incident was allegedly because Prince Stephen was trying to save a cat that was about to drown. At that time Prince Rudolf was the last person Prince Stephen met."

It was one of the contents of the investigation report of Valencia subordinates. There was a gaffe about Prince Stephen's death.

"Something seems strange here. Could Prince Rudolf have manipulated the accident? More precisely, he was the culprit behind the death of Prince Stephen."

Not just one incident, there are some problems that befell Stephen before he was found dead. One of them is a poison sometimes found in Stephen's food and drink.

"Excuse me, Miss." Luana went into the room.

"A, Luana. Hows it? Did you find that guy?"

"We found it, Miss. Now that person is in the torture chamber."

Valencia smiled as he stood up from his seat.

"Well, let's get there right now."

Valencia headed for the torture chamber. In this room, all the criminals Henzo captured were locked up and tortured to death.

"Where is that guy?"

"Here, Miss."

Luana shows a man tied in chains on an iron bed. He was battered after being beaten by the knights for trying to escape.

"Siram him to wake up" Valencia said.

The knights immediately carried out Valencia's orders. As soon as the man woke up, he was surprised to see Valencia before him.

"Where am I? Then who are you guys? Why are you holding me here?!"

The man began to thrash, he still did not realize the reason for being in that place.

"Roy, a forty-year-old who used to work as one of the servants at Prince Stephen's residence. It seems that now you will receive karma for having been an accomplice of Prince Rudolf to get rid of Prince Stephen. Let's listen, how do you explain this matter."
