Loot the Treasury! Crush the Rebellion in One Stroke!

"Take every chest."

Before a dim chamber deep within the castle, where forbidden magic pulsed through the air,

Grayfia stood expressionless.

Her black-and-white maid uniform looked stark and severe in the night wind.

Behind her,

hundreds of Empire soldiers in elite light armor, blades in hand,

searched the chamber passage with fervent faces and practiced precision.

After crushing Roswaal's spirit,

Grayfia

had wasted no time.

She led the Empire soldiers to seize everything in the Mezas Castle treasury that very night.

"Commander, we found a well-hidden chamber of ancient magical scrolls."

An Empire captain hurried forward and saluted respectfully.

"It's protected by layers of psychic chains."

"Lead the way."

Grayfia's reply was cold.

At the deepest point of the chamber,

thousands of parchment scrolls

sat in neat rows on shelves made from ancient sacred wood.

They gave off an almost unreadable pulse of magic, steeped in fierce obsession.

"These are... manuscripts of the Witch of Greed..."

Grayfia stepped forward.

She reached out and gently brushed the edge of a scroll with her warm fingers.

Once deciphered, they proved to be the work of Echidna, the Witch of Greed whose wisdom had been unmatched a thousand years ago.

They contained the most precious and forbidden magical research she had written in her lifetime.

"Pack them all into chests."

Grayfia rested a hand on her sword hilt and gave the order.

"Yes, Commander!"

Soldiers surged forward.

They filled a full hundred specially made golden Empire chests.

A hundred chests of manuscripts.

These records of the other world's highest magical knowledge

were packed up at once and hauled out of the underground chamber.
