Chapter 224: The Ubiquitous Tribunal

Ah, this...

Regarding Senior Hat's reminder, Dorothy also frowned, feeling a bit tricky.

The Sage Council has two major violent institutions under its jurisdiction: the first is the Expeditionary Force, and the second is the Tribunal.

The Expeditionary Force, as the name implies, is a force specifically responsible for external expeditions. The future destination of most Armed Witches is the Expeditionary Force, specializing in external development.

As for the Tribunal, this is a force specialized internally, responsible for suppressing and handling various matters within the Witch world.

It's just that this doesn't mean the Tribunal is the police from Dorothy's past life. After all, Witch society is a fiefdom system. Daily security problems in various territories are handled by private armed forces under various lords, and there is no need for the Tribunal to take action.

The positioning of the Tribunal is actually more like the Imperial Guard, listening only to the Sage Council, engaging in reconnaissance, arrest, interrogation, etc., of crimes, rebellions, and out-of-control Witches. Of course, when necessary, they can also guest-star as spies, secret agents, assassins, and the like.

Unlike the Expeditionary Force, which uses battle groups as units, the Tribunal takes a boutique route, valuing quality over quantity, only recruiting the most elite Armed Witches to form small teams for action.

As for how to select, various duel competitions every year are one of the selection methods of the Tribunal.

After all, the combat targets of the Tribunal are generally also Witches, so naturally, they require team members to be the best at internal fighting, emphasizing heavy punches against compatriots, and preferably critical hits.

And those who can stand out in the duel competition are all the best of the best.

The top few in the duel competition every year either go to be professional duel stars or enter the Tribunal. Of course, it is also possible that they are duel stars on the surface, but have already entered the Tribunal in secret.

After all, the true identities of Tribunal members are confidential. Even when they perform tasks, they use masks and code names.

Except for the Sage Council, no one knows their true identities, and even teammates performing tasks together only know each other's code names, not their true identities.

And this is one of the reasons why the Tribunal is feared. After all, who knows if you commit a crime one day, whether your friends and family around you will suddenly take out a mask, put it on, and tell you that she is a member of the Tribunal.

If Sophie Liya is being watched by people from the Tribunal, then this is indeed very troublesome, especially since Sophie Liya also has the identity of Student Council President. God knows if anyone in the Student Council is disguised by the Tribunal.

Even in this bar at this moment, among these guests drinking, there might be people from the Tribunal.

Thinking of this, Dorothy only felt that she was a bit hard to handle. She looked at everyone as if they were Tribunal watchers.

"What are you looking at? You are also a member of the Tribunal."

Just when Dorothy was startled, Senior Hat said with a suppressed laugh.

Dorothy: "???"

Question marks popped up on the Home Witch's head again.

Nonsense, how come she doesn't know when she joined the Tribunal? Besides, the Tribunal isn't that easy to join. They only want elites, okay? They don't need a waste like her with only 30,000 Mana, not to mention she is just a research Witch.

"I'm really not lying to you about this. After all, besides recruitment methods like duel competitions, the most common source of newcomers within the Tribunal is inheritance from predecessors. Generally, daughters, apprentices, etc., of old members can be given priority for recruitment."

"And Teacher Euphelia is one of the three major Tribunal Judges. Surprised? Qian Bao, before you were even born, the teacher had already registered you in the Tribunal roster."

Senior Hat said happily.

Dorothy: "....."

Ah, this, is there such an operation?

"But isn't Mother in the Expeditionary Force? Isn't she the Legion Commander of the Ruin Legion?"

The Home Witch still wanted to struggle a bit.

"No one stipulated that people in the Tribunal cannot be in the Expeditionary Force. Besides, Qian Bao, don't you think the army needs the supervision of the Tribunal even more?"

Senior Hat mercilessly shattered Dorothy's fantasy, and then fiercely added two more stabs.

"And Qian Bao, you are really destined with the Tribunal. Not only your mother, but the spider teacher you just apprenticed to is also a Grand Tribunal Judge."

"Hmm, even your stepmother is, but she retired after divorcing her old partner."

Dorothy: "....."

Damn, am I living in a winery? How come everyone around me is from the Tribunal?

Realizing this, the Home Witch only felt that her Tribunal PTSD was even more severe. She couldn't help but worry about Sophie Liya. After all, with the Tribunal's ubiquitous ability, God knows how many people are watching the Angel Witch every day.

"Don't worry about this, this little angel is still quite safe for the time being."

Senior Hat opened her mouth to comfort her master who had been made suspicious.

"This little angel really has something. Her avatar technique is condensed using the power of fate and is the highest-level avatar. Only someone who also masters the power of fate, and whose attainments are higher than hers, and who has even seen both her main body and avatar, can see a trace of flaws. Even I almost looked away at the beginning."

"This is using her own fate branch as an avatar, which is indeed brilliant. Plus, she herself is a mixed-blood Witch. This Fallen Angel avatar is the possibility of her angel bloodline swallowing the Witch bloodline and becoming a pure angel. She even specially chose a secondary fate branch where the angel falls again. She is really cautious to an excessive degree."

Clearly, she was shouting to crush Sophie Liya before, but at this moment, Senior Hat's tone was full of appreciation. Dorothy could hear that Senior Fan Ni was truly praising the Angel Witch's ability.

You must know that this future Fourth King has eyes higher than the top. Even she herself had never received such praise from Senior Hat.

Well, after all, she is the one who directly made Senior gasp in admiration.

Hehe, some people, don't look at her as a majestic Fourth King on the surface, actually, she is secretly a Witch fan.

Hehe, didn't expect it, right? I am actually the Witch of the Forest. Your idol is right beside you, even in negative-distance contact with you every day (referring to the hat on the head), but I just won't tell you, smile.

The Mana Web is the masterpiece of Lord Demon King, and the final authority of the Mana Web is only in the hands of Lord Demon King.

Therefore, except for Lord Demon King, the owner of the Mana Web, even the other three Witch Kings cannot see through other people's Mana Web. This confidentiality effect is first-class and trustworthy.

And clearly, Lord Demon King is busy with ten thousand things, where would she have the time to expose the alter ego of her small character? So, her main account is stable as a dog.
