Waking up from a nightmare several hours before dawn, Belle fetched a drink of water. 

She paused in front of her kitchen's window when she noticed a lit lantern in front of her mansion's garden. Her butler stood there, shovel in hand. This was no hour to be gardening. 

Curious, she made her way outside, but when she had gotten close enough to see a large and hollow pit next to her eternally-stoic and polite butler, she saw him pick up a rotten body. 

A DEAD BODY!

Her eyes widened fearfully when she saw her handsome butler drop the rotting body into the fresh hole. She asked in horror, "What are you doing?!" 

Surprised to see his young miss awake at this hour, he stared at her with the same expression he had been keeping up for all these years. He had made sure she was asleep before coming here.

"Gardening."

"And the body?!" she looked at him in disbelief.

"Fertilizer," he answered her before picking up the shovel that was on the ground. Belle was now certain something had possessed her butler. Who gardened dead bodies?!

She then heard him ask her, "Want to help me in planting it, Miss Adams?" he gave her a sweet smile.

Belle Adams' Butler

The witcher's feet were crushed further by Lucas up to the point that the magistrate screamed loudly but there was no one to hear. Or more like if someone did hear, they couldn't' react because this was the part of the land where people were left hypnotised.

"I told you what you wanted!" the witcher yelled at Lucas who stepped away from the witcher's feet.

"Explain more to us?" said Belle, "Why are you trying to summon the first black witch?"

The witcher saw Lucas start to fold the sleeves of the shirt he wore and he answered, "There are some of the black witches who want to resurrect the dead and bring them back so that there wouldn't be a need for the red moon ritual."

"What is the red moon ritual?" Belle asked and it was Lucas who answered her.
