The Warden of The Witches

Chapter 55:

Sorry, to bother you. I just want to share my story a bit.

So, yesterday I bought a used bike, I was really happy because it's my first bike. I didn't see any problems when buying it because, you know, I'm not familiar with these things.

After a few days of using it, issues arose, so I took it to the workshop. Turns out, the inside of the bike was rusted, and the mechanic said the condition was really bad and can't be fixed.

Can you imagine my expression when he said that?...

It was Like this 😳😳😳

I just bought this bike, and now it's broken!!!!

I bought it for 700,000 IDR or 44.82 in USD, which is half of my salary, HALF OF MY SALARY!!!! And now, he says the bike is broken.

I think I'm gonna cry 😭😭😭😭

Magic Potion

Meanwhile, in the infirmary...

The prison doctor was busy in the lab. she hadn't rested properly for the past two days.

Since the night before yesterday until this afternoon, the core area of the prison had experienced two unexplained outbreaks. The inmates' temperatures rose collectively, but no other symptoms were detected.

Subsequently, two underage inmates, attempting to attack others, but ended up injured and had to be brought here for treatment.

Almost simultaneously, several inmates suspected of taking drugs were sent to the infirmary for examination, making her particularly stressed on her duty day.

Now, almost every bed outside was occupied by inmates. Naturally, there was a considerable number of prison guards and riot squad members in the room, making the entire infirmary overcrowded.

Fortunately, the actions of the Warden were relatively quick. And the source of the drugs was immediately identified. Unfortunately, she had to temporarily handle the testing of these drugs.

"If we get through this wave, I'll definitely apply for a raise," she silently resolved in her mind.

While thinking this, she reached into the warm water basin and pulled out a test tube. Half an hour ago, she had added some substances to the testing reagent, and now the reaction results should be ready.

The liquid in the test tube exhibited a red fluorescence.

"Magic reaction?" The prison doctor was stunned on the spot.

Substances with magical reactions usually originated from materials found on powerful magical creatures.

The drugs concocted from these materials were known as magic potion.

Similar to black magic, magic potion was strictly regulated in this world. Few people dared to dabble in magic potion, except for witches wanted by the Inquisition bureau.

The prison doctor suddenly felt a chill running down her spine. This batch of drugs was not ordinary contraband!

In terms of danger, compared to magic potion rich in magic power, those addictive common drugs were nothing.

In Rose Prison, there were several powerful witches whose magical abilities were sealed by the prison's barrier, preventing them from unleashing their full power.

If these witches obtained magic potion capable of temporarily boosting their magic power, they could temporarily regain their strength within the prison and break through the containment.

If the drugs circulating in the prison were not only addictive substances but also this kind of magic potion...

The person who introducing these drugs into the prison probably had a more significant agenda than just becoming a drug lord here.

Allowing high-risk criminals to regain strength within the prison could empower them to overturn the entire facility!

This matter must be reported to the warden immediatly!

Realizing this, the prison doctor immediately stood up, preparing to compile a report to be delivered to the Warden.

At that moment, a prison guard opened the lab door. "Doctor, a prisoner fell and hit their head. Can you come take a look?"

"If it's just a superficial injury, have her sit and wait. I have more important matters at hand!" The doctor impatiently waved her hand.

"What's more important?" the prison guard blinked, asking again.

Just as the doctor was about to reply, someone in the infirmary's lobby suddenly shouted, "Now!"

The prison guards and the doctor were momentarily stunned. It was the same prisoner who had been brought in earlier, they didn't know why she suddenly shouted.

"What are you doing? Trying to get yourself killed!?" The prison guard immediately turned to scold the prisoner.

However, the next moment, other inmates who heard the prisoner's voice suddenly rose from their beds, collectively launching an attack on the guards present. This included inmates 3361 and 3362, the twin assassins brought in by Meirujinu.

The demonic claws, attached to their forearms instantly expanded, breaking the shackles imposed by the Inquisition bureau.

Meirujinu had long ago unsealed the restraints on them, keeping them hidden until now was precisely for this moment, to strike against the guards.

They lunged forward like carnivores, targeting the two guards closest to them.

Inmate 3361, the older twin, was a beat behind slowed by broken ribs from the previous encounter.

The prison guard instinctively dodged, narrowly avoiding the swing of her demonic claws.

However, the other prison guard was not as fortunate. Despite his instinctive evasion, he was scratched on the arm by the younger twin. As he prepared to draw his gun for retaliation, he found his entire arm's muscles stiffening, rendering him immobile.

She Instinctively, glanced at his right hand, and shocked. His right hand had turned into a gray-black stone, and the petrification symptoms were spreading slowly towards his shoulder.

The demonic claws transplanted onto the wrists of the twin assassins carried a curse that gradually turned the flesh and blood of living beings into stone.

Chaos erupted in the infirmary as guards and inmates clashed.

"Don't come out, call for help!!"

The guard who had just brought in the prisoner abruptly closed the lab door, locking the doctor inside, while he guarded the entrance.

She knew well that the doctor had no weapons; getting involved in the melee would likely lead to her demise.

The doctor stood helplessly in the lab, listening to the sounds of the commotion outside.

Two seconds later, she suddenly reacted, reaching to press the red button set on the wall.

Instantly, the alarm bell at the infirmary's entrance blared, rapidly spreading throughout the entire prison.

In Room 12 of the core area, the witch Dailey sat on the bed, gently caressing a bottle in her hand.

Several hours ago, the vampire Princess Ophelia and the inmate 3340 found her in the library's reading room, handing her this bottle.

"Inside this bottle is a magic Potion that can temporarily restore your magic power."

"I can help you break the demonic contract on you."

"We're going to act tonight, kill the warden, and leave this prison."

"If you want freedom, join us, or continue wearing the collar and be a dog in this prison."

...

The other party proposed a quite tempting deal.

She could now feel that the demonic contract imposed by Aiden, that constantly threatening her life, had disappeared.

When Ophelia first suggested cooperating to leave the prison, she didn't take it seriously.

But now, it seems that the conditions offered seemed genuine.

The this magic potion is probably not fake.

If that's the case, there's only one choice for her.

Meanwhile, in Room 8, the vampire princess Ophelia also sat on the bed, holding an identical bottle, eagerly awaiting the right moment.

Finally, the distant sound of the alarm bell from some corner of the prison reached this section.

The guards monitoring the core area In the duty room raised their eyebrows in confusion upon hearing the alarm.

In Room 13, under Fei curious gaze, Meirujinu approached the door while smiling. She grabbed the railing and shouted to the room diagonally opposite, "It's done, my princess. time to go home."

Hearing these words, Ophelia, who had been waiting, immediately opened the bottle in her hand and consumed its contents.
