The Impact Of The Villainess' Fake Marriage On The Ending

Chapter 100

"I see you often these days, Your Grace. Your face is dark, so it doesn't seem to be something worthy of a welcome."

Peacefully reading a book in her cabin, Herma greeted Kael with a light sigh.

When Kael saw the small bottle, he immediately ran to Herma.

A person who did not know much about magic would have thought it was just an ordinary glass bottle, but it was made using special glass to prevent mana from leaking out. The red cork was also proof of this.

"This is a potion bottle, isn't it?"

"Something happened, and I found it in that place. Can you see what kind of potion it contains?"

Herma moved to a place where the light was stronger and looked around at the vial. Suddenly, she took out a large basin, poured a purple potion on it, and placed the vial inside.

"The trail has been erased. I won't be able to find exactly what was inside." Herma said she couldn't see anything, shaking her head. "However, looking at the remnants contained inside, it's probably a potion that makes you hallucinate, or a potion used to control consciousness."

As soon as she mentioned the words hallucination and control, Kael and Vero's eyes changed at once. It was important evidence to prove the hypothesis that the emperor had deliberately approached Ramon, manipulated him, and slashed the imperial guard knight.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, Your Grace. Did I ever talk nonsense about magic? I'm pretty sure it's a drug used on other people, a drug that dominates the psyche. All potions leave a waveform like this, and each type has a fixed shape."

Herma continued her explanation with conviction.

"Drugs that can make you control other people like this always leave a mark. It's like karma. Magic always demands a corresponding price. As Your Grace knows well."

Kael nodded as he listened intently.

"If you break the bottle, the same mark will appear on the person this potion was used on and the mage who made and used it. Both of them will be in quite a bit of pain."

"It will appear at the same time?"

"Yes. You can see at the same time who placed that magic and who was attacked."

If, when Kael broke the bottle, the same mark was revealed on an unidentified mage and Ramon, the situation could be explained perfectly.

"We just need to find the mage. I'll send someone to the capital right away."

"There is not much time. Move as fast as you can."

"Yes, Your Grace."

Vero left the cabin as soon as he heard the order. As he was given the end of the week, they had to move as fast as they could to gather evidence.

"It's a strong potion. That's true of all magic related to one's mental, but among them, it's a potion with strong mana. It's a drug no one can make, so how did you get a vial like this?"

"It's a very long story. It's a situation where something unfair has happened and I have to clear the charges. It's enough to know this much."

"Who was it used on? Tell me only that. Maybe there's something I can do to help more."

"Ramon. A knight of the Neave Knights."

"I know Sir Ramon well. He is a good person, so how... Let me know if there's anything else you need regarding magic. I will do my best to help."
