Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Finding Maric wasn't difficult, because he had no friends...because he used to play cards at the "Brave Bar" in his free time when he wasn't doing anything... well, with the zombies he manipulated.

Louise opened the door and walked into the No. 2 chess and card room. Not surprisingly, she saw several men with the same pale faces playing cards, and at the same time felt a cold atmosphere blowing towards her face.

"Can you add me?" she said with a smile.

"Louis Louise."

Maric immediately stood up and greeted her respectfully. At the same time, all the living corpses in the room turned their cold gazes to Louise, and the scene was slightly horrifying.

This welcome ceremony is a bit unique... Louise silently evaluated in her heart, closed the door casually, and then responded:

"Meeting for the first time, but we don't seem to have to introduce each other anymore."

Maric's voice was very heavy, as if there was a weight under his tongue forever, and he explained:

"Before we parted, Gerald had already introduced your existence in detail, which is why we were able to find you quickly."

Obviously I took the initiative to find you... Louise kept a kind smile and asked casually:

"By the way, where did the three of Jerry go, and why didn't they stay with you?"

"They have other tasks." Maric replied simply.

"There is another task. Could it be that the "Bound God" has arranged other back-ups..."

Louise thought to herself, sat calmly on the seat offered by a "living corpse", looked around, focused her eyes on the mirror for a while, and asked again:

"Why didn't you see Miss Sharon?"

Maric put away the cards on the table, always suppressing the surging malice in his heart, and replied in a deep voice:

"She is attending an extraordinary party at this time, and it will take some time before she returns."

"It's such an unfortunate coincidence... Well, in a sense, it's quite a coincidence, because Miss Maid and Miss Seer also went to an Extraordinary party, so they can't be the same?"

Louise couldn't help guessing, but quickly denied this idea, because the "Wraith" of Sequence Five and the "spectator" of Sequence Nine do not belong to the same class at all, and the possibility of encountering them is very low.

"It's okay." She said lightly, "I came today just to let you know that I have agreed to your request and agreed to enter the spirit world."

Maric's face was still expressionless, but his eyes fluctuated slightly. He was about to say something, but found that Louise did not pause, but continued to add:

"As a condition of equivalent exchange, I need you to do me a favor when necessary."

"No problem." Maric replied very simply, without any hesitation, or discussing with Sharon, he directly agreed to it, as if he had expected that Louise would raise this condition... not again Did Jerry reveal it?

Moreover, after Maric agreed, he stopped talking, and the room fell into a deathly silence, and the "living corpse" behind him might still be staring at the two of them.

Seeing this, Louise had no choice but to stand up with a smile, and took the initiative to say goodbye: "Since Miss Sharron is not here, let's put the time for the ceremony tomorrow."

Maric also got up and saw him off, and said respectfully: "Follow your will."

…………

Leaving the "Brave Bar", Louise walked on the way home, silently thinking about the preparations she needed to make before entering the spirit world.

Klein will carry the "Profane Card" to improve his personality, and at the same time it can be counted as a weakened "Wraith". Unfortunately, Louise doesn't have it in his hand. Seriously speaking, she is still very poor...

In general, although she has a lot of "adventures" at present, most of them are too high-end. What she has gained is only knowledge and clues, and there are no items that can be used as trump cards. This is a pity.

In the process of thinking like no one else, Louise suddenly turned her head, and she found that someone was spying on her.

What came into view was a little girl about ten years old, her clothes were worn out and dirty, but her eyebrows and eyes were very delicate, especially those bright and energetic eyes, which were quite pitiful. The men in their teens held hands, not knowing where they were going.

Louise read the fear and sadness from the girl's eyes, and then looked at the man leading her, walking in a hurry with excitement in her expression, and immediately understood the strangeness.

Sighing suddenly, she took two quick steps, stepped forward to say hello:

"Linda, why are you here, didn't you go to work with your mother?"

The girl's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly replied:

"Hello, sister, my mother is sick today, and I will come out to buy medicine for her."

The man didn't have time to interrupt the conversation between the two, so he turned his head and stared at the little girl, squeezed his palm hard, causing the latter to frown in pain, and then looked at Louise suspiciously, but immediately turned into surprise and surprise. Desire, said frivolously:

"Beauty, who are you? Do you have something to do with me?"

Louise smiled twice, her eyes rolled, and she said softly:

"It's true, let's go over there and talk, shall we?"

The man was overjoyed immediately, as if he had forgotten his original purpose, subconsciously let go of the little girl's hand, and said with a silly smile:

"Yeah!"

Louise gave the little girl a hint, and the latter responded with a grateful look, and then ran away quickly until she ran to the side of the road, bowed deeply, and then disappeared at the end of the alley.

Looking at the almost delirious man in front of him, Louise walked ahead, led him into a narrow and dark alley, and asked softly:

"Whose subordinate are you?"

The man answered truthfully, "I work for Boss Capin."

Capin, one of the human traffickers selected by Backlund, the one killed by Klein in the end... When Louise heard this answer, she suddenly lost interest.

She burnt the man in front of her to ashes blankly, because his head was restricted by the Extraordinary of the arbitrator path, so he couldn't tell any information at all, and being alive was a waste of air.

Capin is surrounded by several Extraordinary beings to protect him, so he is not suitable as a target to play the "Witch". Moreover, Louise is now a member of the "Witch Sect", and has a cooperative relationship with George III...

So it's better to leave Capin to Klein to deal with. Louise is not suitable to come forward, and to do things in Backlund, it is easy to be caught by the demigods of the major churches passing by, and the effort is not directly proportional to the gain.

…………

Back at No. 59 Egram Street, I found Miss Seer and Miss Maid who were "conspiring" together for something.

"Have you bought the materials?"

Infected by the atmosphere of the two, Louise also showed a happy smile and asked aloud.
