As the sky turned bright, Roland yawned and walked into the office.

He had thought it would be an easy-going coming-of-age day, but he didn't expect so many accidents.

When Nightingale noticed that Lucia's expression was wrong, the magic power in her body had become manic—this was a sign of magic backlash, which was a bit incredible for a witch who often practiced and emptied all her magic power before adulthood.

The solution was proposed by Agatha.

As a former member of the Association who had witnessed countless witches awakening, she quickly came up with a countermeasure.

The Ice Witch asked Speer. Pasi to summon a magic power channel to export the magic power that had backlashed in Lucia's body. Anna, who had the largest capacity, was responsible for transferring it, and then the God's Will Seal was used to absorb this part of the agitated magic power.

Surprisingly, the exported magic power directly lit up four divine stones and activated the God's Will Seal. Anna did not hesitate for a second and decisively released it into an open area.

In that instant, the sky above the town was illuminated by a golden sun, and the dazzling light penetrated the castle walls and pierced the starless sky. Thick clouds appeared in the night, and thousands of streamers flowed over people's heads, which was breathtaking. Although it only lasted for a few breaths, the scene at that time could be called a miracle.

The result was gratifying—Lucia was finally safe and sound, and she also evolved a new ability during this coming-of-age, just like Anna a year ago.

However, there was also trouble. The accident happened at about night, and most of the people had not yet fallen asleep. Many people must have witnessed this spectacle. After Roland returned to his room, he had to think about how to explain this phenomenon to the people.

"Your Highness, Chief Executive Barov requests to see you," the guard at the door knocked on the door.

"Let him in."

With his white hair, Barov strode into the office and asked directly before saluting, "Your Highness, what exactly happened last night? Why did daylight suddenly appear at night?"

As expected, he came for this light. Roland glanced at the dark circles under the other's eyes, knowing that he, like himself, didn't sleep well either. If it weren't for the fact that outsiders were strictly forbidden from entering the castle after nightfall, he would have come to his door at that time.

"Don't worry, sit down and talk," the prince pointed to the chair in front of the table, "Have a cup of black tea first."

He slowly poured a cup of hot tea for the other party before roughly explaining Lucia's coming-of-age, "This was just an accident, you don't need to worry too much."

"So... this was caused by a witch?" The mayor of City Hall frowned.

"Don't let your imagination run wild with demons," Roland quickly guessed what the other party was thinking, "No one was injured as a result, except for half a wall missing from this dilapidated castle."

"But the townspeople will think in this direction," Barov shook his head and said, "Most of them accept Nana Wa xiaojie's harmless healing ability, not this terrifying ability that can destroy castles and cause celestial phenomena."

"So I came up with a solution," Roland took a sip of tea and said slowly, "Later, you arrange for your subordinates to spread this news: the golden light that appeared last night was because His Highness the Prince captured the lightning in the sky, and the purpose was naturally to bring light to his people."

"Huh?" Barov was stunned.

"I will soon set up power supply equipment in Border Town. Its essence is the same as the lightning in the sky," the prince briefly explained. He knew that the other party would not understand if he said it too deeply. "This set of equipment can make the town brightly lit at night, which coincides with the news."

"Is, is that so?" The chief executive was surprised, "Can you really create lightning?"

"It's everywhere," Roland shrugged, "But you have to remember one thing, this is just a rumor, so it must be spread in the 'way of rumors', understand?"

In order to avoid affecting his future popularization of education, similar remarks must not be too deeply rooted in people's hearts. As long as it can temporarily give the people an ambiguous explanation and lead the source of discussion to himself.

Not long after Barov left, the Minister of Construction

Carl. Vanbert also came to the castle.

"Your Highness, last night..."

"I know what you want to ask," Roland rubbed his forehead, "Sit down and talk first."

He sighed in his heart, fearing that he would have to explain this matter all day today.

Fortunately, Carl didn't think as deeply as Barov thought. After listening, he just sighed, "So Anna is already so powerful."

"It was indeed a very decisive move at the time," Roland agreed. "If it had been a few breaths later, I'm afraid it wouldn't be the wall that disappeared, but the entire bedroom."

"That gap in the wall..."

"Just fill it with bricks and stones. You can arrange the specific plan, and it will be completed before dusk today. I will let Lightning and Hummingbird assist you," the prince said. After repairing the wall, let Soroya paint a simulated coating, which should restore the castle's appearance.

"Yes, Your Highness."

As he expected, Chief Knight Carter. Lannis, the First Army Commander Iron Axe, and alchemist Kemo. Strell all came to ask about the accident last night, and everyone cared about different directions.

Carter cared most about whether he was injured.

Iron Axe cared most about whether the light came from a demon attack.

And Kemo cared most about... which was more powerful, God's Will Seal or nitroglycerin.

It wasn't until he was dry-mouthed that Roland sent these people away. He leaned back in his chair and was about to take a nap when there was another knock on the door.

The last to arrive was Tilly. Wimbledon.

"Don't worry, yesterday's scene was..."

"I already know," Tilly interrupted him. "Before coming here, I asked Anna xiaojie, and she told me what happened."

"Uh... I see," Roland cleared his throat and sat up straight. "Is there anything else?"

"I'm just a little concerned about why such an accident happened." Tilly said slowly, "According to Ms. Agatha, whether it is awakening or adulthood, as long as you ensure a certain amount of training on weekdays, it is difficult to experience symptoms of devouring. This is basically consistent with the conclusions we have explored from experience. Witches on Sleeping Island have never encountered similar situations. Why did Lucia fall into magic backlash instead?" She paused slightly at this point, shook her head with a smile, "As for advanced awakening, I'm not surprised... Since coming to Border Town, I feel like I can see a few of them every day."

A few every day is too exaggerated... Roland poured her a cup of tea and said after a moment of contemplation, "I have a preliminary guess about Lucia's accident." He took out a report card from the drawer and handed it to Tilly, "This may be the reason."
