"I'm Slade, Slade Words."

There was no expression on his face, but the ‘Master of Secret Puppet’ who twitched occasionally responded like a machine.

Xifa continued to ask: "Slade, what are you doing here?"

"Treasure Map."

"Be specific."

Slade frowned and seemed to resist, but still said, "I am tracking a treasure map related to the Antigonus family. I suspect that the treasure map points to Antigonus. Somewhere in the family."

"So I came to Sunia Island and came to Gran Town."

This...this is really heavyweight news. This guy named Slade is tracking the treasure map related to the Antigonus family. The treasure map in Cyril's hand is actually related to that mysterious family. relation?

The old fox in Osved didn't tell me anything, because he was worried that I knew that the treasure map was related to the Antigonus family, which would give birth to alienation? What a cautious old guy...

Tracking down items related to the Antigonus family, it is the ‘Master of Secret Puppet’ again. Is Slade a member of the Secret Order?

Thinking of this, Xifa directly asked: "What is your relationship with the Secret Order?"

It took two seconds for Slade to respond, "I am a member of the Secret Order."

really...

Xifa then asked, "Did you get the treasure map?"

Slade did not refuse this question, and immediately replied: "No."

"Have you killed Cyril? Why are you in his villa, why do you want to change into his appearance?"

Slade struggled and replied: "I didn't kill Cyril. I hired the gangsters in the town to cover up. The "White Bear Party" in Gran Town often asked Cyril to maintain the safety of the plantation. Such spice merchants charge a fee."

"Today I asked the White Bear Party to charge Cyril for the same reason, but when I came, his servant told me that Cyril was not in the manor."

"I fortune telling that someone will visit Cyril until today, and it is related to the treasure map, so I dealt with the servants in the manor and stayed in the villa as Cyril."

Hearing this, Xifa breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that the people of the Antiquities Preservation Association are quite clever, Cyril has not yet fallen into Slade's hands.

He asked again: "Have you never fortuned Cyril's position?"

Slade quickly responded: "I have fortune-telling, but I can't see the revelation. Cyril must have anti-divination items in his hands, or someone will cover him and interfere with the divination directed at him."

Well, this is not surprising, there are a bunch of magical items in the Antiquities Association, and the treasure map is very important, Cyril can't take it lightly.

At this time, Xifa discovered that Slade's figure began to overlap, and rumbling low noises sounded around it, as if this space was about to collapse.

It seemed that Slade's resistance was intensifying, and he might wake up at any time. After all, this is the ‘Secret Puppet Master’ of Sequence 5, and he is also an Extraordinary of the divination path. Even if he is forced to fall asleep, he can find the correct way to escape from the dream even in the dream.

Xifa hurriedly raised another question: "Do you know where to find a mermaid?"

Since Slade became the ‘Master of Secret Puppet’, he must have taken potions in the singing of a mermaid, so Xifa would ask this question.

Slade gritted his teeth lightly, wanting to say but not saying. After a while, he said: "In the depths of the sea of ​​ruins..."

He suddenly looked towards Xifa, his eyes filled with doubts, as if he was curious why Xifa was here.

Xifa immediately ended the channeling.

After a trance, Sifa looked around and found that he was ‘awake’.

He suddenly looked at Slade on the ground, and saw his eyelids twitch, as if he was about to wake up immediately. Xifa immediately stretched out his hand to catch it, red surging, and his hand quickly condensed a long white spear with the tip of a spear.

Xifa no longer hesitated, and suddenly stabbed. At exactly this time, Slade opened his eyes, but his eyes were still confused.

Sure enough, he found a way to escape in his dream, but unfortunately it was too late. The hot spear ignited his clothes at once, and the hot tip of the spear easily pierced his heart, nailing the'Master of Secret Puppet'. On the ground.

boom!

The violent flame wave spread, and then quickly contracted, converging into a pillar of fire, and rushing straight to the roof.

In the wooden house near the gate of the manor, members of the White Bear Party were talking loudly, drunk, and had no idea what happened to the villa.

When the flames disappeared, Sifa controlled the flames and did not let them spread further. Then opened the window, let the cold wind in and blown away the dense smoke, only then saw Slade's charred body.

On his corpse, a little illusory glimmer emerged, and after 10 minutes, a jelly-like extraordinary characteristic formed.

Xifa found an iron box in this miscellaneous room, and he put away the extraordinary characteristics of ‘Master Secret Puppet’. Then he released a flame. Under his intentional urge, the fire was extremely fierce, but in a blink of an eye, the whole villa was lit.

The fire and smoke from the villa are clearly visible even in the small town of Gran.

Soon after, a team of police arrived at the ‘Champagne Manor’. They awakened the members of the White Bear Party who had been drunk in the wooden house and ordered them to help fight the fire.

On the roof of an abandoned farmhouse not far from the manor, Xifa held the chimney in his hand and clearly saw what was happening.

His arson was meant to attract the attention of the police in the town, and to attract the attention of the people of the Fusac Empire. In this way, even if Slade had a companion on Sunia Island, he would not dare to act rashly.

Moreover, this fire was also shown to Cyril. He believed that Cyril should still be on Sunia Island and should receive news.

If Cyril was smart enough, he would speculate that the fire was set by the ‘duke’, because the Secret Order had to act in secret and would never do such a compelling thing.

In that case, he wouldn't have to go to Cyril~www.readwn.com~ and just wait for the spice merchant to contact him.

At the same time, Xifa clearly felt that he had completely digested the potion. Just after he killed Slade, just after he set fire to the villa, he got feedback, and thoroughly digested the two bottles of the "Arson House" potion!

"It's time for promotion."

When Xifa walked out of the farmhouse, he had already taken off the "Thousand Face Traveler" mask and quietly returned to the town of Granville with his original appearance.

He found a humble hotel in the town, opened a room, and bought a big iron pot.

Afterwards, he set up a simple altar, summoned the ‘spiritual treasure chest’, and took out the extraordinary characteristics of the ‘conspirator’ and various auxiliary materials.

"let's start."

With a bit of expectation, a bit of excitement, and a bit of trepidation, Xifa first took out the ‘lion blood’ he got from the iceberg and poured them into the iron pot...
