Miss Witch, please don't leave your fragrance everywhere

Chapter 47 The City of Justice, Leirber

  Brand couldn't remember how he got back home. It must have been the witch who brought him back.
  Eva pulled Brand's shoulder in confusion and asked why her mother didn't come back.
  Brand came to his senses and hugged Eva tightly, crying. He cried for a long time before he came out of the pain of losing his beloved wife. Eva was at a loss. In order to prevent Eva from having wild thoughts, Brand never let Eva know the whereabouts of her mother.

  Brand recovered and quickly made up his mind.
  "Let's go, Eva."
  "Dad, where are we going?"

  "Where to go...anywhere is fine. There's no war nearby. There must be a city that can accommodate us."
  Brandt took out the suitcases from under the bed with a hoarse voice and began to pack clothes. These suitcases were the ones that the couple had planned to use for traveling as a family in the future when Kelly was pregnant. Unfortunately, their dream did not come true.
  "We can't continue to live here, or else we might be eaten alive by this city one day."

  "What about my friends here?"
  Eva, who didn't understand what was going on, couldn't help complaining, but Brand couldn't care less. If he stayed in the Kingdom of Leirber tonight, he would definitely not be able to sleep.
  No matter what the cost, Brand had to protect his last daughter. Unlike Stuart, who had plenty of time to sell off his property, Brand had no spare energy to take care of that. Brand had a good skill, and the armorer also knew how to work as a blacksmith. In the medieval context, blacksmiths had a stable job wherever they went.

  After Brand packed his luggage, he hurriedly fled the country of Leirber with Eva. Leirber had to go through cumbersome inspection procedures for entry and exit, but it was not a closed country. The guards had no reason to intercept Brand without authorization. They knew that the person hanged was Brand's wife, and thought that Brand was just going out to travel and relax.
  Brand dragged his tired body and Eva to the outside of the city. No matter how his daughter on his back called him, Brand did not stop until he left the country of Leirber far behind and could no longer see the city where Brand had lived for decades when he looked back.
  "Dad, someone was calling us from behind."

  "Huh...Huh...Whoever he is, we have to hurry..."
  "Brand! Eva!"
  Brand's whole body was shocked. This voice did not belong to anyone else but the person he had been thinking about all this time.

  Brand turned around in astonishment and saw the living Kelly standing behind him, along with Miss Witch and Abigail.
  "You guys are really fast. It's not gentlemanly behavior to make a girl use magic to chase you."
  Angelica complained unhappily, but what made Angelica even more depressed was that Brand didn't seem to notice her at all, and his whole attention was on Kelly.
  The two looked at each other for a long time. Suddenly, Brand stepped forward and hugged Kelly in his arms. Feeling Kelly's real warmth, Brand finally realized deeply that this was not a dream or an illusion, and Kelly was really still alive.

  Brand and Kelly were kissing passionately, which made Abigail blush and her heart beat fast, but Angelica, next to them, was still verbally abusive.
  "What a terrible kiss."
  "Can Sister Angelica tell the difference?"

  "I'm a master."
  "Could it be that Angelica-sister kisses often?!"
  "Not often, but I haven't tried it in a while. I live alone."

  After a long time, the embarrassing couple finally regained their composure. Brand lowered his head awkwardly to the angry Angelica as an apology for ignoring the witch lady.
  "Ms. Magician, what is going on?"
  "A substitute doll. There is a kind of magic that can make a doll look so real that it is indistinguishable from the real thing. The prison in the country of Leirber is heavily guarded and protected by magic. Even if I want to sneak in without alerting anyone, it will take some time."

  Brand finally understood ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) why Angelica looked a little tired this morning.
  "From the beginning, I didn't think that Kelly could be rescued through normal means. She would definitely be sentenced to death. So I could only follow this line of thought and let Kelly nominally die in the country of Leirber. In order to make the doll, a part of Kelly's soul was lost, and her life span will be reduced. I will not accept after-sales complaints."
  "How could that be! I can't even thank Miss Magician enough!"

  Brand was very excited, and so was Kelly. When she saw a stranger breaking into the desperate cell, she almost thought it was the god of death coming to take him away early.
  "Oh my God... How can we thank you so much! All our possessions are not worth the kindness from Miss Magician!"
  "I only came here to visit my friend's grave. As for my thanks... you'd better stay away from the country of Leirber. If they find out that the dead are resurrected again, they will definitely fall into chaos."

  "Of course! No matter what, our family will never come back!"
  The Brand family thanked Angelica profusely before parting with the witch. Brand, Kelly, and Eva, who left the Leirber, will live a free life in the future, even if the pain caused by the City of Justice is irreversible.
  “What a surprise…”

  "Ah?"
  "Sister Angelica didn't take advantage of the opportunity to blackmail me... It hurts."
  "Am I the kind of person who asks for money regardless of the occasion?"

  Angelica hit Abigail's head with her hand in displeasure. Her image in Abigail's heart was really getting worse and worse. Witches would occasionally do some good things without reward. By the way, the reason why she didn't ask for a large amount of reward this time was definitely not because she already had enough gold in her pocket. It was definitely not the case.
  Angelica did not leave the country of Leirber immediately. She and Abigail went to a tomb outside the main city of Laerber. This tomb belonged to a certain person and was guarded by a large number of fully armed gravekeepers. No one was allowed to desecrate it.
  Richard Kaufman's name was engraved on the tombstone. Miss Witch came to the grave, placed unknown wild flowers in front of the grave, and clasped her hands together.

  —You are too idealistic, Richard.
  ——Angelica, you are always pessimistic about everything. Justice should be decided by the citizens. Only when the gavel is handed over to the citizens' justice will it not be missed or wrong. The eyes of the citizens are sharp.
  It's not like that, Richard.

  People always make mistakes, one person, a group of people, or even a country. Maybe there really is a perfect law in the world, but it is always people who enforce it.
  Angelica would not laugh at those who pursued justice, but she had to admit that it was a reality that there was no perfect justice. All she could do was to get as close to it as possible. A city written by an overly idealistic and paranoid person would naturally be like this.
  Angelica will continue to visit the country of Leer in the future, not for the justice here, but simply because her old friend is buried here.

  【Witch TIPS】
  The witch's travel companions in the past were all kinds of strange, and there were also people who parted ways with the witch unhappily and broke up with her.
