"My Lord?
Where are we going? "
Sitting in the carriage, Fafna seemed a little curious. But there was no longer the uneasiness and fear on her face when she learned of her past.
On the contrary, her face was filled with the childishness and anticipation of a child.
After all, Fafna hadn't left Parsus for a long time.
Ever since she came here, she had spent most of her time in the monastery.
Later on, she stayed in Jenn's manor. To Fafna, no matter where she went, she felt pretty good.
After all, when she was in the church, Fafna liked peace and quiet. She liked the peaceful atmosphere.
And in the monastery, even though the Witch's Children didn't approve of Fafna's way of thinking, they were all children and more or less had the temperament of a child.
If the cruel society and reality in the past forced them to struggle for survival, then in this warm and comfortable environment, they more or less let down their guard.
Even the most taciturn and unreasonable child gradually became much gentler in this place.
Even warriors who went on expeditions hoped to put down all burdens after returning home to enjoy delicious food and warm beds.
And now, Jenn was providing the Witch's Children with such a haven.
He didn't expect the Witch's Children to turn over a new leaf and not be vigilant against the outside world, but at the very least, they could temporarily put down their vigilance and hostility against the outside world after returning to the monastery and enjoy their own lives.
After all, this made it easier for Jenn to carry out mental manipulation.
In fact, the effect was pretty good. The Witch's Children were naturally more sensitive to mana, and Jenn had set up a mental spell formation in the monastery.
Thus, basically all the Witch's Children had a favorable impression of Jenn.
Of course, this wasn't the kind of change where one day they were mortal enemies and the next day they would fall head over heels in love.
On the contrary, it was a subtle change.
Every time these Witch's Children enjoyed soft beds, sumptuous delicacies, and an environment where they didn't have to worry about being insulted or beaten, a voice would whisper in their hearts, reminding them that the reason why they could enjoy such a beautiful life now was all because of their kind Sir Overlord …
It was just like how some religions on Earth liked to pray before a meal, "Thank the gods for giving us food and wine." As a result, after chanting it for a long time, they really believed that the bread in front of them had really fallen from the sky and not grown by humans like them. Oh … even if it was grown, it didn't matter, because the reason why farmers knew how to farm was not because of their own ability, but because of the great will of the gods …
It was precisely under this subtle influence that the loyalty of the Sons of Witches in the monastery to Zayen, if expressed numerically, had exceeded ninety on average. They belonged to the category of "loyal" talents that could not be poached away even if they were poached.
Although most of the Witch's Children had yet to reveal their talents, Jenn didn't mind.
They were talented and capable. All that was left was for them to receive strict education and throw money at them. As long as there was enough money, what couldn't be done?
In comparison, it was more difficult to win people's hearts.
"Let's go out for a walk."
Zayen smiled in response to Fafna's question. Then, he turned to the opposite side.
This time, Enoya and Tinidale didn't come out with Jenn. On the contrary, there were only three people who left Parsus with Jenn. Fafna and Irene were two of them.
The former was an invitation from Jenn to take her out for a walk, while the latter was a reward.
In the past, Jenn had once brought Irene out for a stroll in the name of a reward. This time, as the leader of the Witch's Children, Irene naturally received an invitation from Jenn.
In this regard, Irene readily agreed.
As for the last one, she was a Witch's Child named Lindy. Jenn wasn't unfamiliar with her. She was the girl who was injured by a Judge Paladin during the investigation of the Church of Light.
This time, Jenn brought her out with the intention of rewarding her.
Although Pattilina believed that this little one was simply acting recklessly, no matter what, she had sweated and bled for Parsus and more or less deserved some compensation.
After all, if Jenn brought Irene out all the time, it would easily arouse the suspicions of the other Witch's Children and make them suspect that he had ulterior motives towards Irene.
On the other hand, if he brought Lindy along, everyone would have a companion along the way. Jenn could also confirm the effects of the other Witch's Children's Brainwashing through Lindy. After all, Irene and Fafna had more contact with him and had long been implanted with the Mark of Demons by Jenn. Although it hadn't been activated, it had finally jumped into his bowl.
However, Jenn wasn't too sure what the other Witch's Children's Children's attitudes towards him and what they thought about him. That was why he chose Lindy, a Witch's Child who didn't have much contact with him, to travel with him.
Of course, Jenn also intended to use this matter to observe the other Witch's Children.
Of course, to Jenn, the most important person apart from Fafna was Irene. After all, in his mission column, the [Demon Father] mission hadn't been completed yet.
It wasn't easy to be a good father to Ailee. A father's love was as heavy as a mountain …
'Where are we going this time?
Sir Overlord? '
Sitting on the other side of the carriage, Irene respectfully poured a cup of tea for Jenn and asked curiously.
This time, Zayen did not even bring Alice with him. He only brought the three sons of the Witch with him.
And among them, Irene naturally took on the role of a maid.
For this reason, she had been learning this skill from Alice and the others for a long time. Now, it seemed that she was doing it well and didn't feel the slightest bit rusty.
The entire movement was done in one go and was rather pleasing to the eye.
"Just taking a stroll."
In the face of Irene's question, Zayen still smiled and answered.
"This time, we're visiting incognito, so we have to keep a low profile. There's nothing wrong with looking around.
Anyway, we're just taking a stroll around the Eagle Plateau and see if there's anything fun to do and relax. "
"Visiting incognito?
What do you mean by visiting incognito? "
Fafna asked curiously.
Even Lindy, who was next to him, had an inquisitive look in her eyes as she looked at Zayen in confusion.
But compared to Irene and Fafna who had been with Jenn for a long time, this young lady was evidently nervous.
She sat upright on the sofa in the carriage, leaning against the back of the seat. Her entire body was tense as though she were a guard.
Her face was stiff and expressionless.
Facing Fafna's question, Jenn pondered for a moment and answered.
"Simply put, it's like a noble hiding his identity and disguising as a mercenary to visit the world."
(Why would a noble disguise as a mercenary?)
Hearing until here, Irene became even more puzzled.
Fafna lived in the temple all year round and didn't know what a mercenary was.
But Irene was well aware that mercenaries were adventurers to put it nicely. But to put it bluntly, they weren't much stronger than the Witch's Children. She had seen those filthy mercenaries get into fights over a few words and were no different from ruffians.
Why would a noble disguise as such an adventurer and hang around in those filthy taverns?
With Irene's imagination, she couldn't imagine why he would do that.
As for those heroic and handsome adventurers in stories who fought against demons to save the world … Sorry, at least Irene hadn't seen them before.
"Ugh …"
Facing Irene's simple question, Jenn didn't know how to answer. He paused for a moment and shrugged with a bitter smile.
"It's just an example. To put it simply, we have to hide our identity and don't let others know of our origins. Got it?"
Even though they weren't sure why Jenn wanted to do that, the three of them nodded obediently. No matter what, they respected Jenn. Even though Jenn's words were a little strange, they didn't question too much.
In fact, they didn't expect that the biggest reason Jenn chose to travel at this time was for Fafna!
That's right. Jenn knew what mission Fafna shouldered.
This was his advantage. But he was also clear that this wasn't the only important thing to Fafna.
For a girl who grew up in the temple, her piety towards faith and the degree of evil in the world weren't deep enough.
In other words, compared to Irene and the others who had tasted the sufferings of the world and personally experienced the warmth and coldness of the world, Fafna's experience wasn't deep enough.
That was why Jenn used this method to bring Fafna out and let her experience the other side of the world. It wasn't as simple as reading the records on the Fate Tablet, but having her experience it personally.
And when that time came, Jenn believed that Fafna would definitely make a 'reasonable' judgment with his' help '.
As long as he could make Fafna's thoughts move in the direction he desired, Jenn believed that his mission would be half completed.
That was why Jenn planned this incognito visit.
He hadn't used his authority before, but now … It was time for him to taste the fruits of victory.
