Chapter 73 The Witch Natalie and the Digestive Potion
Natalie sat naked on the stool in front of the dressing table, her legs, clad in stockings, raised with alluring grace, as she spoke to Evan, who was lying on the bed:
"Just use your sealed artifact to disguise yourself as an 'audience' for now. I will report your situation to my superiors as soon as possible and see if we can find a way to help you solve the problem of future promotion."
Furthermore, you should make the most of your brother's connections to climb the ranks within MI9. If necessary, I can also provide you with assistance so that you don't have to fight alone.
If you need to contact me urgently in the future, just send someone to deliver a message. You'll easily find out where I live. After delivering the message, come to this room and wait, and I'll come as soon as possible.
Lying on the bed, Evan was currently in a state of "post-coital bliss." He had no idea that this witch's style was completely different from Mrs. Sharon and Helen's. She was wild to the extreme, keeping him on the defensive the whole time, and he was still feeling a bit disgusted.
Hearing Natalie's contact information still made Evan roll his eyes.
Do all you witches use the same methods of communication? Do you all book hotel rooms for extended periods?
After Natalie finished dressing, she saw Evan still lying on the bed pretending to be dead. She sat down on the edge of the bed, touched Evan's face, and giggled.
"Don't worry, I won't treat you badly if you follow me. Although you were discovered by my sister, we sisters are of one mind and we are inseparable, so don't hold any grudges."
Hearing this, Evan felt a chill run down his spine. Lady Sharon was a man who took a magic potion and turned into a woman. According to the custom of the witch cult, a high-ranking witch would turn the father of a boy into a witch after she became pregnant with him.
Therefore, Mrs. Sharon's father has become "mother", so it is impossible for her to have a younger sister. If she did have a younger sister, she would be a half-sister, and how could there be any kinship between them?
But Evan could only pretend not to know and act unusually surprised.
"Since this is our first meeting, I'd like to give you a gift. Is there anything you'd like?"
Evan, feigning shyness like a puppy, said:
"Before I came, Lady Sharon had already given me the potion recipes for 'Instigator' and 'Witch,' and I feel that I've already digested the Assassin's Potion. Could you give me the materials for Instigator?"
Natalie was clearly surprised, her gaze turning cold as she looked at Evan, and then asked:
"Did she give you the formula beforehand? And how long have you been taking the Assassin's Potion? How did you digest it so quickly?"
"Lady Sharon actually gave me the potion a long time ago, but she didn't report it to the cult before. A few days ago, after I left Tingen, she told me the rest of the recipe."
Evan lied with complete confidence. He believed that Lady Sharon would be killed by the official Extraordinary Squad in the next two days, so he directly attributed his speed of digesting the potion and his prior knowledge of the potion formula to Lady Sharon, which was a way to pave the way for his rapid advancement later.
Natalie's eyes, however, were filled with murderous intent. One of the secret organizations' methods of controlling its members was through potion recipes and ingredients. In Natalie's eyes, Mrs. Sharon's actions were not only an act of defiance against the organization but also a demonstration of her power.
Throughout, Natalie never suspected that Evan was lying to her, or even "instigating" her to provoke her resentment towards Mrs. Sharon.
Because she had been misled by Evan's preconceived performance, she believed that Evan was a handsome pretty boy with a good older brother.
"Now that my sister has given you the potion recipe, I can't be too stingy."
Here's what I'll do: I have another Instigator with an extraordinary trait on hand. I'll have someone deliver it to you tomorrow morning at 8 AM.
You can pick it up today.
Natalie originally intended to use the "Instigator" formula to lure Evan, but since Evan already knew the formula, she had to use the Extraordinary trait instead, otherwise she would appear to be less capable than Mrs. Sharon, her new superior.
"Really? Thank you so much! I will definitely follow your instructions."
Upon hearing this, Evan repeatedly pledged his loyalty, acting like a sycophant, while Natalie covered her mouth and laughed as she disappeared into the shadows.
After Natalie went invisible, Evan quickly got up, dressed, and wandered around outside until an hour later when the black dot in his field of vision disappeared.
"No witch is easily fooled. If it weren't for the 'Gray Vision,' I might have actually thought she was gone long ago."
As he watched the black dot disappear from his "vision," Evan cursed inwardly and couldn't help but rub his back. He felt that Natalie was even more difficult to deal with than Mrs. Sharon and Helen combined.
"Why is she so excited?"
Comparing Mrs. Sharon and Natalie, Evan felt that Natalie might be more valued by the Witch Cult, because Mrs. Sharon had begun to indulge in her female identity and was starting to break away from playing the role of the Witch Cult.
Natalie, however, still sees herself as a man and treats Evan as a stunning beauty, behaving roughly and wildly in bed with him.
The problem is that Evan doesn't want to be a 'woman' either. He already knows that the witches in the witch cult are all 'men', and it's disgusting enough to have to 'sleep' with them. Now he's being treated like a 'woman', and Evan can hardly contain his murderous intent.
Just then, Evan suddenly felt two shattering sounds inside his body as his "Hunter's Potion" and "Assassin's Potion" were simultaneously digested.
A wicked smile appeared on Evan's face. He knew that Mrs. Sharon had died under his remote control, and that Triss, under Evan's prior arrangement, had fallen into the net and become the prey.
Sometimes, eliminating a target can be achieved through the actions of others; assassination is merely a means, the ultimate goal is a successful assassination.
"Obtaining information about the prey in advance makes it easier to capture it."
In setting up the trap to capture Tris, Evan cleverly obtained a lot of information from Lord of Mysteries, which allowed him to easily lure Mr. Z into the trap and successfully capture Tris from thousands of miles away, leaving a handle for his future plans.
The simultaneous digestion of the Assassin's Potion and the Hunter's Potion greatly improved Evan's mood and also somewhat dispelled his nausea about sleeping with Natalie.
Evan turned a corner and boarded a public carriage to his apartment in the Joewood district to change his clothes before attending a secret meeting convened by Isinger Stanton. He needed to gather intelligence on Zeril and collect materials to prepare for his promotion, since he had already obtained the "Provocateur" extraordinary trait today and would obtain the "Instigator" extraordinary trait tomorrow.
He wanted to improve his rank and strength as quickly as possible to gain control of that mysterious city; he was fed up with sleeping with "men".
