Late at night, Qiao Xiu and Xili ate and drank at Queen Yekana's banquet until they were satisfied and returned to Hearthstone Tavern.

Claire and Monet, who had been waiting in the Hearthstone Tavern, finally received the treatment that a prisoner should have, that is, interrogation.

Claire was brought to an empty room by the tavern attendant, with only a long table and three chairs, and a crystal stone lamp emitting dim lights.

This kind of scene made Claire always feel like she had seen it there.

Qiao Xiu was now sitting on the other side of the long table, and a female spellcaster who looked like a recorder sat next to Qiao Xiu with a notebook.

"First of all, my sister's name is Claire, my brother's name is Monet, right?"

Joshu made a gesture to Clary to sit down. Clary sat cautiously in the position opposite Joshu, and then nodded to Joshu's answer.

"Then I'll ask the first question. If I give you another chance to rebel into the Demon Realm, my younger brother Monet will temporarily become a professional player, sister... I haven't thought about it yet. In short, I will give you a job and give you personal rights. Will you still play for the Inquisition?"

Qiao Xiu resisted the urge to hiccup and tried to make himself more serious. He ate too much when he went to Queen Yekana's banquet just now.

"Absolutely, Your Highness Qiao Xiu!"

"Is this brother answering now?"

Qiao Xiu had almost figured out the general personality of the brother and brother when he was talking to this Chaos Demon in the contestant's lounge.

"If your question is serious rather than a joke, my answer is not."

Clary made the excited Monet temporarily shut his mouth and looked at Joshua cautiously and said.

"It was successful in the rebellion so simply..."

Xiri, who was responsible for recording the conversation, suddenly raised her head and looked at the Chaos Demon.

"Are all the people in your heresy court like this?"

"All this?"

Claire listened to the tone of the female spellcaster, she seemed to know several rebellious judges.

"Well... In fact, there are still a few former judges working under my command. Is the heretic court really okay to review spies? If I had defected to the enemy's side so easily, this kind of spy would have been fired long ago."

Qiao Xiu suddenly began to tell Claire about her professional ethics, which made her feel a little overwhelmed...

"sorry."

In the end, Monet, who was guilty, could only apologize in a low voice for his sister.

"It seems to be a bit off topic. After all, I'm not very professional in interrogation. You can go to the pre-job inspection. The second question is why you joined the court?"

Qiao Xiu's words completely dispelled the tense atmosphere. Claire can no longer imagine Qiao Xiu as the image of a knife and axe driver.

There will also be good people among the demons. A former elderly Holy Cult Army taught Claire's motto, and Claire has always scoffed at her, and Joshu's performance forced her to believe it.

"The Inquisition found Monet and I, and turned us into this... so we can only be a member of the Inquisition."

Claire chose to lie to Joshu here, and Joshu could easily let her and her brother disappear into this world.

Although it is very despicable, Claire must gain Joshua's trust, which is the only way she can protect her younger brother.

As this thought wandered inside Claire, a needle-like pain suddenly came from her mind.

This made the Chaos Demon body controlled by Claire subconsciously fall on the table.

What's going on?

Clary looked at Qiao Xiu, who was sitting in front of her, with her eyes beside the Chaos Demon's eyes.

"I forgot to remind you, a friend helped me set up a very interesting barrier, and the name can be roughly summarized as a spiritual lie detector."

Joshu showed Clary the mark of the bones in his palm.

"A qualified spy can pass the detection of this magic circle, but it seems that you have not undergone this training." Joshu paused and said, "So you have a chance to tell the truth next, Miss Amateur Spy."

"Our parents were the Holy Army, participated in the fourth expedition, and then... never came back."

Claire's hands clasped her hands tightly and defeated the pain in her soul like a needle prick.

"So I also became a member of the Holy Cult Army and wanted to take revenge, but... I failed, and the heresy court gave me a second chance." As Claire said this, the pain in her soul gradually eased, and her eyes looked at Joshu again.

"Your second chance also seems to end in failure."

“…”

Claire clenched her fists and did not answer Joshua. She knew that the truth she said now might anger Joshua.

"The third question." Qiao Xiu did not continue to ask questions, "How much do you know about the current heresy court? And their purpose..."

"The Inquisition has a large number of temporary strongholds in the Frost Kingdom, and the bishops gathered in the Frost Kingdom seemed to intend to open something called the Gate of Roots."

Claire knew that this was one of the bargaining chips for her survival, so she could only tell Qiao Xiu everything she knew.

"Door?"

"The soul builds the door body, the holy objects act as keys, the roots become battlefields, and the truth comes to this world."

Clary whispered a prayer that sounded very strange to Joshua's ears. The prayer was not like human language, but Joshua still understood the meaning.

"This is a sentence that appears in my mind when the bishop fixes my soul in this chaotic demon's body." Claire continued.

For a moment, the atmosphere of the interrogation room became dull, and Clary stared quietly at Qiao Xiu who was in deep thought.

"Gate of Truth? Are you sure those bishops have never read a comic called "The Alchemist of Steel"?"

"I've only read the comics called "Big Cat Travel" on Magic Website."

Clary answered Joseph very seriously, after all, if she lies, she would be punished.

“I drew that one.”

A comic created by Xili in the Immobile Library, a world that has already had stories in comic strips in the form of long ago.

Some books are included with some illustrations. Xili was recently told by the person in purple to practice oil paintings, so Qiao Xiu suggested that she might as well connect these oil paintings into a story.

So Xiri combined his experience of survival in the wilderness and the experience of Zenas to create a comic about the demons traveling around the world for 365 days.

"You... are you the author? I have read that comic too." Monet suddenly intervened in the conversation at this time.

"Monet!"

Claire interrupted her younger brother again. The current atmosphere is not very suitable for communicating topics related to comics.

"Big Cat Travel is strictly the first comic book on Magic Network, uh...it seems to be off topic again."

Joseph asked Claire that he could no longer get any useful information.

"Today's interrogation is here for the time being, I have some things to deal with."
