Enemies, Please Line Up

Luther used Deep Hypnosis again, attempting to extract memories from the depths of Sophia's mind, but he failed again. In the end, he had no choice but to end the attempt, continue the previously interrupted operation, seal Sophia's memories on the ship, and send her back to the island owned by Feysac.

"Come out!"

After seeing Sophia off, he shouted angrily at the empty air.

M's beautiful figure then appeared, still wearing a gentle and mysterious smile.

"You...

"Smack!"

Luther's hand moved with lightning speed. Before she could even speak, he grabbed her neck tightly and gradually increased the pressure, squeezing her bones so hard they cracked as if they were about to break.

"What's going on?!"

He questioned in an icy tone.

According to Sophia, Ivanova Einhorn, a member of the Feysac Royal Family, looks exactly like that damned Ms. M! This is definitely not a coincidence, but rather indicates that there is some kind of connection between the two, especially since Sophia's memories related to her are blurred, which further confirms the influence of the "Spectator" Pathway behind it!

Damn it, damn it!

Why is that Lunatic, that piece of shit, still haunting us? Why does he still exist somewhere in this world?!

The rage in Luther's chest burned fiercely in his heart, and he gripped his hand harder and harder until "crack."

M's neck was completely bent, and his head was tilted to one side.

Her dazzling red hair brushed against Luther's arm, wafting a warm, sweet fragrance, and cascaded down smoothly like a red waterfall.

"I don't know anything either."

With her head tilted to one side, she spoke in a beautiful yet eerie way, "Don't forget, I'm just a split personality you created, not..."

I have a feeling you're lying!

Luther gave her no room for words, his eyes gleaming with a clear and bright light.

"Boom!"

A golden light shot out, burning her delicate, fair skin. It was an attack aimed at dispelling evil and targeting the very source of Spirituality. Under this light, M couldn't help but let out a low cry of pain.

Luther did not let her go. Instead, he held her in his hand, left the Captain's Cabin, and jumped onto the black three-masted sailing ship on the other side.

The Ship Spirit of the "Black Throne" was extremely hostile to other passengers; apart from Luther, the only one allowed to board was Luna. Left with no other choice, Luther had to leave the main crew members on the Doe."

"Antiya!"

He roared as he landed.

A black-haired, black-dressed Angel emerged from the deck, carrying Luna in her arms.

"Can you see this person? Use your power to find out more about her!"

Luther didn't have time to explain and shouted directly at Antiya.

"Ah?"

Although somewhat confused about the situation, Antiya still raised an arm and placed it on M's almost transparent body. Soon, the Angel aura rapidly spread outwards.

"!"

However, she only touched M for a very short moment before reacting strongly, as if pricked by a needle, and abruptly withdrew her arm.

"There was a strange tidal sound coming from inside her body."

Antiya frowned and said, "It looks dangerous. I don't dare touch it."

Damn it...

Luther lowered his head and met M's eyes. Despite the severe injuries she had suffered, the latter still smiled gently. "I've said it before, we are one, and that Tide will protect me as well."

Do you think I can't handle you?

"Antiya, enhance my abilities!"

Luther continued shouting, while simultaneously activating the "Spectator" Pathway ability attached to the Tide, manipulating the other party's Consciousness and entering her Mind Body Door!

He could feel a soft hand pressing on his back, amplifying his abilities to a level far exceeding Sequence 4, thus invading M's Mental World.

"Hmm..."

M's golden eyes dimmed rapidly, her mouth opened and closed slightly, uttering soft murmurs. For the first time, her Consciousness was so open, allowing Luther to examine it carefully.

However, Luther eventually withdrew with a gloomy expression.

He found nothing.

All of M's memories in her Mental World, as confirmed by her own explanation, were created by Luther's own split personality, forcibly shaping a second personality... and had nothing to do with Ms. M.

"Do you believe me now?"

She said, "There's nothing between Ms. M and me, at most we just look alike... This was something you did Consciousness."

"Shut up."

Luther said coldly, using his hand as a knife to pierce her heart, "Disappear. I don't want to see you again."

The warm touch of blood lingered on M's arm for a moment before disappearing as she vanished.

Luther stood silently on the deck, exuding a cold and gloomy aura.

Meow~

Luna called softly, wriggling free from Antiya's embrace and leaping onto his shoulder, touching his cheek with her wet nose.

"How are you?"

Miss Ship Spirit also expressed her concern. She didn't know why Luther was suddenly acting so intensely, nor why he had fallen silent. She could only sense his melancholy at that moment.

Luther pulled Luna into his arms.

"I suddenly realized that one of my enemies might still be alive."

Stroking the black cat's soft fur, he calmed down slightly and said softly.

Do you know the location? Do you need my help?

Antiya then asked.

Perhaps it was just his imagination, but Luther felt that her figure seemed somewhat unreal.

"It doesn't matter."

Luther had completely calmed down. "I have many enemies, and I need to take them out one by one. I can't let her disrupt my plans."

This so-called Ivanova Einhorn does indeed have a face like Ms. M, and there must be a connection between them. But I can't let her disrupt my plans. I was originally going to return to Loen to wipe out the Aurora Order and kill Ince Will first, and then it wouldn't be too late to go find her in Feysac.

After all, members of the Royal Family are very conspicuous, making them much easier to find than Cultist and defectors hiding in dark corners.

Even so, I have to speed things up.

"Anderson!"

Luther returned to the "Doe" and called to his first mate, "I'm leaving soon; the Fleet is in your hands."

"Huh? Captain, this is too sudden! Shouldn't you have given everyone a proper explanation and calmed them down? And quite a few of them want to become Extraordinary..."

"Alright, you can decide all of these things. Contact me only if there are any problems."

Luther interrupted, "You should also work harder. If you can advance to Sequence 4 soon, I'll be more at ease."

Having said that, without waiting for Anderson to say anything more, he flew back to the "Black Throne," disappearing along with the ship and entering the Spirit World.
