Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva

"For this reason, many archeological teams and adventurers have gathered there in the past. From these, special technological patents were unearthed, which later gave rise to two gigantic enterprises, namely 'Light Cicada Prism' and 'Bright Wing Mark'. They respectively mastered the secret technique of manufacturing special glass and the method of light-burning space marking. The former is used to manufacture many observational instruments, while the latter is used in superluminal space travel to determine one's own position and lock onto target locations."

The two narrated their past experiences serving in the Lansha Starfield and the technological legacy left behind after the 'Cicada Wing Species' was obliterated.

"These legacies have been almost fully uncovered through over a thousand years of excavation and development, leaving only a few personnel stationed to prevent them from being taken by some illegal organizations and used as lairs."

"After saying so much, Miss Tilan might be a bit puzzled as to why we emphasize these points."

"Because these are our firsthand experiences, not lies or exaggerations. In fact, although the Federation has been established for nearly 1,600 years, the threat of the Black Sun has not completely disappeared. There are still people secretly researching related technologies and searching for possible ways to revive it."

"In the Lansha Starfield, we frequently capture starships supported by such ambitious individuals attempting illegal immigration. Mostly, they are daredevils and are extremely aggressive."

"In the past, these threats wouldn't have caused any upheaval under the strong suppression of the Federation's power, nor dared to emerge at will. But nowadays, many are blinded by interest, eager to pursue powerful forces. Despite historical warnings left behind, greed and ambition are hard to stop."

"Considering the current internal situation of the Federation, you as a Songstress should be more familiar than us, and it's not very good." "No, I don't know that much," the girl internally retorted.

"The societal divide between rich and poor is causing a buildup of resentment, with some areas even beginning to experience the emergence of cults. Unlike the rational and slightly restrained orthodox religions, these cults exploit people's hollow and helpless inner states, selling the so-called 'Heaven after death' and turning souls into 'Angels', claiming that this can liberate one from the pains of reality, thus winning considerable support."

"The more impoverished and bitter the place, the easier it is for such drug-like and incendiary religions to be born."

"In the past, although 'cults' existed, they never gained momentum. After all, this is not ancient times; it's an era where divine powers truly existed. Even fraudsters would find it hard to convince people without strong powers."

"But in recent years, it's different. According to some intelligence, key figures in some 'cults' have noticeably grown much stronger, even having used comparatively primitive 'Conscious Resonance' abilities."

Tilan nodded slightly, but soon recalled matters concerning 'Connector' Alanna, wondering if this was related.

"These technologies aren't created out of thin air. According to interrogation research, they likely originate from some Black Sun legacy."

"Logically, this should be an area of concern for the 'Court of Judgment'," Tilan was curious as to why it was military personnel informing her.

"That's right, but there's currently significant internal conflict in the Court of Judgment." The liaison personnel from the military revealed shocking news.

"Internal conflict in the Court of Judgment?" Tilan opened her mouth slightly.

"Yes, the people Miss Tilan regularly interacts with should usually be those from the Songstress monitoring department. In fact, their numbers aren't large, and the songstress field is overly watched by many, so they dare not spread the conflicts here."

"But it's different in other areas."

"The Court of Judgment has three major duties: One, clearing the latent curses left by the Fifth Season Origin, such as off-directory 'Newborn Races', possible Black Sun cults, illegal research organizations, unusually supernatural phenomena, etc."

"Two, monitoring internal officials and official agencies in the Federation to ensure integrity and fairness; this section has the largest number and most complicated situation."

"Three, major security and order maintenance, including protecting songstresses, extremely important political figures, scene security at major events, and maintaining the stable order of the Aijieka Network, apprehending extremely malicious criminal figures, etc."

"No one likes having a sword hanging above their head, and everyone likes using this hanging sword to strike opponents and enemies. Thus, even though the Court of Judgment has iron rules, it still can't stop all kinds of individuals with strong interest demands from knocking on doors and infiltrating time and again. It's safe to say, compared to other corrupt functional departments, the Court of Judgment still has its baseline."

"The most dangerous enemies often come from within, as is the case with the Court of Judgment. To prevent the corruption and degeneracy of its own personnel, they have extremely terrifying self-purification troops internally. These people once swore before the relics of Her Highness Emuralin to use the remaining will and strength of their lives to guard her legacy and wishes, protecting this country."

"These personnel have undergone special modifications; although their Sequence Level will no longer increase, their combat ability is extremely strong, equipped with numerous dangerous weapons and tools. They understand the personnel structure of the Court of Judgment internally thoroughly and are incredibly familiar with the internal combat abilities of the Court of Judgment. Furthermore, their faces are imprinted with masks that will never be removed during their lifetime, essentially already existing as some kind of 'non-human' entity."

"The existence of such a team has always deterred the personnel within the Court of Judgment and ensured that the Court of Judgment has remained untainted for the past 400 years."

"However, just two months ago, we received reports that bloody conflict occurred internally in the Court of Judgment; two elite self-purification troops under the Court of Judgment collided. Among them, the deaths of 13 Sequence 7 cadres ensued, a severe internal conflict, even shocking in description."

"It can be foreseen that the Court of Judgment will fall into considerable chaos internally in the future. As a result, the Court's suppression and control over the originally chaotic state will weaken and all kinds of hidden forces will emerge, with no one daring to guarantee their own security in the future."

"Even though we, from the military side, have formidable military strength, obtained some intelligence, and can foresee many upcoming events, we are also the most heavily constrained by the Federal rules. Every fleet movement and personnel change attracts Congress scrutiny and inquiry."

"To prevent overly passive situations from happening, we need third-party songstresses like Miss Tilan as allies and assistance to voice opinions in Congress, blocking potential unfavorable decisions."

The other party feared Tilan was too young to understand some profound and arcane suggestions, so they spoke rather frankly. It must be said, such words, if heard and recorded by the Court of Judgment, might not be without serious incriminating evidence.

Enterprises, politicians, religions—personnel from these forces or organizations can easily get in touch with songstresses and engage in a certain degree of cooperation, such as joint commercial activities, canvassing, public welfare promotions, etc. Only the military's contact with songstresses is strictly prohibited.

Initially possessing military power, if gaining civilian prestige support, wouldn't they easily break away? In the internal war four hundred years ago, such an incident occurred: a songstress directly teamed up with local fleets, circumventing the officials.

Though the victor was also the local songstress Emuralin, her successor would not want descendants to mimic their path, hence decisively closing it off.

After listening to the other's narration, Tilan entered into contemplation. In fact, she had quite a good impression of Yarnasha and numerous military-industrial groups, as this group is independent from the system and receives less contamination.

It also benefits from the Federal Congress's guard against the military, including prohibiting additional promotions by the military, banning participation in commercial activities, forbidding any financial dealings with enterprises, etc., which somewhat ensures a relatively pure atmosphere within the military.

Back then, so many powerful military-industrial enterprises in the Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain immediately disbanded as soon as the war ended, and were relocated to various different Star Domains for settlement, aiming to avoid forming an interest group alliance. This was also the main reason the Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain fell and couldn't recover after the war.

Time quietly passed, Tilan's side Deloris gradually sipped coffee, she along with the couple opposite did not urge, quietly awaiting the decision of this young songstress.

About ten minutes later, Tilan raised her head, her eyes blinked a bit, and her voice resounded in the minds of both.

"I promise to offer you some support and assistance, but during necessary times, I also hope for your aid."
