Let's Make a Deal

"You are already captured now, and the intelligence about the spells has been leaked. Continuing to resist is not beneficial for either side," in the negotiation room, Aiden sat across from Priscilla, separated by an iron table. "Simply put, if you restore Rebecca's body and lift the seal on her memories, you can receive a lighter sentence. Of course, if you are willing to later make a deal with me to share research findings, I can also try to negotiate a reduced sentence for you."

"Causing trouble for you is a great benefit for me," Priscilla said, while crossing her arms, displaying defiance. "And you want me to hand over my research? Do you know how much effort I've put into these studies?"

"I can imagine," Aiden nodded. "After all, you have even developed such a terrifying spell as permanently seizing someone's body. If one can freely take over another's body, they can use that person's identity to commit crimes at will. This poses a significant challenge to the existing order." Aiden tapped the iron table with his fingers. "By the way, I heard that you researched this spell to help witches evade pursuit by the Inquisition. You haven't taught this spell to anyone else, have you?"

"Of course not. This spell is still in a progress," Priscilla retorted impatiently. "If it weren't for the Chief Inquisitor pushing me to a corner, I wouldn't have resorted to this tactic."

"It isn't completed? It sounds like the completed spell will be even more formidable than this one."New n0vel chapters are published on

"Of course, my goal is to have a spell that, after seizing someone's body, can perfectly inherit their memories, knowledge, and skills. Unfortunately, there has been no progress beyond this point. If I could achieve that, I wouldn't be in such a predicament now."

Indeed, if Priscilla could inherit Rebecca's memories and abilities, there would probably be no need to use amnesia as an excuse. She could seamlessly portray Rebecca more naturally and avoid easy suspicion. Transitioning to Rose Prison would also be much easierjust like Aiden did.

It's true, Aiden is more familiar with the idea of seizing someone's body and perfectly inheriting their memories, knowledge, and skills than anyone else.

Upon hearing Priscilla's words, Aiden quickly began to ponder.

He was be reborn in this body, inheriting the identity and abilities of the previous body's owner, all due to Mephilia summoning effect. Mephilia claimed to have left an "insurance" on the former Aiden, which brought him to this world.

Now, it seems this so-called "insurance" is likely the effect of divine incantation. Mephilia's displayed power is even stronger than what Priscilla intended to achieve, as it can inherit even the memories of the deceased and even revive dead bodies.

"To be honest, I have no intention of getting involved with your lackeys. Just the thought of it makes me nauseous," Priscilla retorted bluntly.

"You're not dealing with the organization, you're dealing with me personally. In my view, you are dangerous, and your skills are dangerous as well. However, I believe you must have other research findings that hold value for a trade. Make a deal with me. If you end up with the Inquisition, you won't even have the chance to negotiate. What's the point of a one-for-one exchange with a superior in the Inquisition? The Inquisition loses a senior inquisitor, but the Witches' Gathering loses a Grand Witch. Who loses and who gains isn't so clear-cut," Aiden continued to persuade.

"So, you're saying there's a chance for me to get out of prison early?" Priscilla inquired.

"That depends on whether you're willing to cooperate with me," Aiden replied.

After a long silence, Priscilla finally spoke, "I still can't trust you. You mentioned dealing with Dailey, so bring her here to meet me in person. I want to confirm with her myself."

"Of course," Aiden opened the door and issued instructions to the guard waiting outside.

A few minutes later, Dailey was brought into the room.

"Dailey..." Seeing her long-lost friend, Priscilla's eyes widened slightly.

"Here she is..."

Aiden turned to look at Dailey, just as he was about to start a conversation with her, he suddenly felt a hint of confusiondailey expression clearly bore a touch of unease.

"Warden," Dailey cautiously spoke to Aiden as she entered the room, "Although I do think you are a decent man, for this kind of situation... I would like to take some time to prepare myself mentally first."

"Huh......" Aiden suddenly confused
