The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 514 A Letter from the Wilderness
The premium Golden Bird stationery is the best Golden Bird stationery Moran can currently produce, offering better confidentiality than the mid- to low-grade versions.

She briefly described the sound she had just heard and her concern for Lady Anita, then summoned the Golden Bird using the Golden Bird spell.

The summoning power was plentiful. The golden bird grabbed the letter and traversed to another space, heading towards the wilderness.

"It's Saturday today, and the summoning power is sufficient. The Golden Bird will definitely be able to return to the wilderness within a day, in time for the opening of the Witch Academy's demiplane mail delivery channel tomorrow. We'll find out what happens then," Moran said.

Lilith, Vasita, and Sylph nodded.

A long silence followed.

Moran didn't say anything more. She summoned the Book of Witches and continued reading according to her study plan.

If Lady Anita is alright, she will continue to study and strengthen herself according to plan. If something happens to Lady Anita, then she will become stronger even faster, becoming the new protector of the witch clan and maintaining the peace of the wilderness.

Moran's movements startled Lilith and the other two.

They were stunned for a moment, and then simultaneously summoned the Book of Witches, forcing themselves to calm down and read its contents.

The carriage did not stop that day.

Inside the train carriage, they could only distract themselves by reading and studying.

The carriage traveled all night, and they watched it all night.

The next day, when the Witch Academy demiplane opened its mail delivery channel, they simply couldn't bear to watch any longer.

Even Moran could no longer concentrate; her eyes were still on the book, but her mind had already drifted back to the academy.

Lady Amisha, have you received the letter yet?

Is Lady Carmela also in the Academy demiplane?
Are they writing back now?

When will the golden bird's letter arrive?
Moran had never felt that delivering messages by the golden bird was so inconvenient.

too slow!
Previously, people thought that without satellites, even if card games were made into mobile phones, there would be no signal communication or internet connection.

She later discovered that the connection between the Book of Cards and the cards could act as a local area network within the cards. She was also worried that the witches in the wilderness would frequently use the cards to communicate, exposing the connection between the cards and the witches or even sorceresses, thus affecting the development of the Dawn Society.

That's why we haven't made any communication-related cards yet.

But now, she has some regrets.

I should have made a one-to-one communication card and given it to Lady Carmela and Ms. Amisa.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be waiting so anxiously.

As the sun set, a golden bird finally darted through the space and appeared inside the carriage.

A familiar-looking letter was tossed onto the table.

"This is... a letter I wrote to Lady Carmela?" Moran said.

The golden bird nodded and then shook its head.

Moran used mind-reading to understand her meaning.

The Golden Bird couldn't find Lady Carmela, so it brought the letter back again.

The golden bird can deliver messages even to the underworld and the abyss.

There's only one possibility we can't find Lady Carmela: she's no longer in Valen.

Originally, Lady Carmela, Lady Tracy, and Lady Anita were supposed to take turns staying in Valen to look after the wilderness.

Lady Carmela will not leave until Lady Tracy and Lady Anita return.

But now that Lady Carmela is no longer in Valen, has either Lady Tracy or Lady Anita returned?
Still none of them have returned?

Moran's heart sank; she knew it was most likely the latter possibility.

Lady Carmela once said that, according to the arrangement of the three witches, Lady Tracy would not return from the Well of Heaven for at least a hundred years. Their rotation is still a long way off!
About an hour later, five more golden birds arrived one after the other.

Five more letters appeared on the table.

Four of the envelopes were in the special envelopes of the Witch Clan, sent by the Witch Clan, one for Moran, one for Lilith, one for Sylph, and one for Vasita.

The last letter was from Ms. Amisa.

After letting the golden bird leave first, Moran opened Ms. Amisa's letter.

Lilith, Sylph, and Vasida also came over to watch.

The handwriting is messy, showing that it was written in a hurry, and the content is also very brief:
"The magical contract between Lady Anita and Lady Carmela has also been broken, but the firework magic circle in the wilderness is still working."

Lady Carmela has already gone to the Sky Well to investigate the situation, but the outcome is still unclear.

"Don't panic, you lot. Just focus on your own tasks."

"Lady Anita's contract magic has also broken?" Sylph said, "A contractor can't break a contract on their own! Unless..."

“Unless the contractor no longer exists.” An overwhelming sense of despair welled up in Vasita’s heart.

"No, that's not right! The Fireworks Magic Bullet in the Wilderness Protection Magic Circle is still there!" Lilith said. "If Lady Anita really doesn't exist anymore, the Fireworks Magic Bullet should have disappeared too!"

“There’s another possibility… that the contractor is still alive, but has forever lost the ability to use the corresponding magic,” Moran said.

“Witches can’t use magic, you mean…” Lilith thought of a possibility.

Moran nodded:

"Witches use magic to cast spells, and magic comes from our bloodline. Bloodline is attached to the physical body. When the physical body dies, magic can no longer be used. But don't forget, besides the physical body, there is also the soul!"

Moran himself is an example of someone whose physical body was destroyed but whose soul still existed.

She even wandered the universe for so long, carrying her past memories, and was reborn as a witch.

"Although it's unclear whether a witch's innate talent manifests in her physical body or soul, it definitely requires magic to activate."

The firework bombs in the wilderness protection magic circle... I don't know how they were preserved..."

Ultimately, this is just Moran's speculation.

However, the existence of the soul still gave them some hope.

They then opened the clan association's letter.

I had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on before I opened it, but I was still a little surprised when I actually saw it.

To all witches,

The Fireworks Witch Anita may have met with misfortune. From today onwards, please do not attempt to use Fireworks in the wilderness to avoid being discovered by the alien race.

The wilderness protection magic array is still functioning normally, and the function of the firework magic bullets to automatically eliminate intruders may last for at most another ten years.

Please be prepared.

—The Witch Clan Association

"The firework bombs in the wilderness protection magic circle can only last for ten years!"

The four of them, including Moran, understood perfectly what this meant.

If a member of an alien race were to venture into the wilderness and not be blown to smithereens by the falling fireworks bombs, then the news of the Firework Witch's demise might not be kept secret.

By the time……

“Ten years! We must spread the Dawn Society to every corner of Valen within ten years,” Moran said.
