Life is a mystery I thought I'm going to kill Theodore in the finale of the story quest but who guessed it would be at the Hiatus decree? Guess you can't control how you et or reunite with soone you previously t, still, you're the one who will decide which window you'll throw them at
"Follow my lead everyone I know the area more than anyone else," Jin walks while the others followed at his back
"Arrh," Esther groaned in pain when she felt the remains of the after-effects of the drug that was given to her, the culprit behind all of this remained silent while Kyo and Quon were concerned
"What's wrong Esther you don't look like you were injured in any part of your body," Quon examined her body for anything strange yet she didn't find a clue about her source of pain
"It must have been my imagination. But I'm glad that you're worried about my health," Esther brushed off her uneasiness that was caused by the pain that was flowing throughout her body, it wasn't a problem for her, yet it caused her to feel irritated
"Oh, Hoh what's this that I sll? It seems like you hit it off with Boss when I wasn't around. His sll has been completely engraved on your body, this wouldn't happen unless the two of you were sleeping together during the quest," Kyo teased her yet she didn't care which made him curious about what occurred in his absence
[It seems that we've found the culprit behind all of this, you can turn off your hearing enhancent you know]
'That brat oh he's gonna pay for this now what kind of person am I if I damaged one of the most important tools in my collection? Let's think of sothing lethal and powerful enough for him to survive its full strength. I think I need to do so shopping after this has been concluded,'
"Hey, Morris do you think these deaths are a little bit easier to solve compared with the Story quest five?" Jin pointed out that a lot of the murder logs were pinpointed were always close to a nearby tavern which made him suspicious of their surrounding area after he was warned by Jin
[What's getting you so riled up]
"Shit they must have rigged the place with an explosive or sothing wait a minute this guy is busy with his research. I can't forget about the smoke that Alexis ntioned before, the last person that exited there died after a couple of seconds. That's it, chemical poisoning their using poison, everyone listen up I need you to wear the mask that you receive from Blake," Morris quickly alerted the rest that was minding their own business when his Familiars suddenly felt a strong sense of danger
"Poison, it has no color and its scent is close to being untraceable," Moon quickly jumps out of his chest, everyone else was wearing a mask yet he was unfazed by the scent that he swallowed within his body that retracted till he turned to into an inflated version of his body
[Immunity to poison can't say I'm surprised the one that created them was a Madman]
"Boss what's going on you asked us to put on our masks and the next thing we see is that your cat has been inflated to the size of a balloon," Kyo's question was ignored when he sees that Morris was focusing his attention in their entire area for any nearby enemies that might be hiding behind every corner within their area
"You should shut your trap, a brat like you would only be a nuisance in this kind of thing If you don't know this inflated cat just saved our lives. I'm a little fascinated with its capabilities I might ask Morris if I can borrow him he's having a hard ti preserving this form of I can feel it. Watch over Morris in my stead I'm gonna find a place where I can safely throw away this toxic gas," Jin quickly withdrew from the rest taking Moon with him that was maintaining his shape to fool the others for him to track down the ones that placed the canister
"This is far enough, what are you doing I heard that you can eat and drink poison as so sort of food. That's better now I'll place you down on the ground and tap my left hand if you know where the crooks are if not and you need to follow you tap my right hand instead. Left huh looks like I'm going to pay a visit to those bastards, hey if you can see in this familiars eyes, then you already know that we're splitting up right?" Jin forgot to give Moon an instruction to do if he was given that sort of answer until a voice suddenly materialized within his mouth
"Yeah, I get it, I'm borrowing Moon's mouth for a sec to converse with you. The reason why Moon is coming with you, and the fact that you have to protect him is his sense of sll,"
[Your friend sure is a little quirky, isn't he? Im already surprised about Magic along with his Martial arts but his Taming skills only happen if the familiar shares a bond with the tar or he dominated them by beating them his order]
"I get it, Bust the origin of these drugs, and we can stop them from their plans, it sounds like an easy job if only I wasn't given a ton of potion. I can guess that it'll be painful as ever maybe even more than the ti we fight that Seper guy. A big operation ant to have an increase in security, along with a set of new weaponry seeing as their druggies then I can guess that they modified their bodies or overly mutated them,"
"That's what I'm expecting to happen if the chance arises that Theodore is inside the factory. Where they made these chemicals then I want you to pull out the portable scroll that's linked with the one I have. That guy has no use to us his only an irritation I don't want him to be as permanent as a tumor I found a clue about what they're trying to create. The need for a ton of human sacrifices, the at locker I found with Hyunsu, and lastly the reason why they wanted to dissect the infected. They thought it was burnt in the fire but I took it and now we can finally loosen ourselves, looks like they wanted to talk to , catch you later Jin,"
Morris's voice disappeared from Moon's mouth after his final words were told, Moon rushed to a certain direction that was leading Jin to the south while he was maintaining a distance where he can easily be protected by Jin if anything were to attack them. They ran from every alleyway, through the busy and populated streets that were brimming with players and Npc, the area was crowded that they resorted to walking while Moon was getting carried on Jin's shoulder, unable to converse with Morris's he made Moon bite a rod that he uses to point out the direction where he slls the origin of the poison
'The investigation I've made with the friendly readers I've t wasn't helpful, aside from that I'm curious about this necklace it's been with before I encountered Morris. The weirdest thing is that it reacts to him like it was calling out for that fool, good thing I safely had it sealed by a priest. The first thing I felt when I touched this was an ominous power that resembles the feeling of death. that's another reason why I can't give this to him it might kill him or turn him into a Lich or an Undead so far those two have the highest possibility of happening,'
Jin continued to traverse the crowded area until he entered a part of the city that was near the location of their target a place field with murderers, smugglers, and druggies as he labels them they entered the dark side of the southern district. A lawless place that was more brutal compared with the Eastern district when it was plagued by the followers mixed with its depressing atmosphere, the cries of tis citizens that was heard in every second he stayed in that place reminded him of his old world. He only had eyes that pity their circumstances and soon after he went back on his journey to find the origin of the smoke that attacked them a while ago
[I thought you would've helped them, this isn't like you I rembered our encounter you were even feeding a poor old man most of your food]
"If they were real I would've helped them the mont I saw them it's my principles help the weak and whack the strong,"
[Thats the reason why you hit your friend?]
"Nah he deserved it, he's lucky that I didn't place a ton of my strength at that swing. That fool was once a wimp the complete opposite of his old self he gets beaten up every ti,"
[Did he ask for your help? In order to deal with his oppressor? If what you say is true then how co he's talented]
"You don't get it, that place was unfair from the start and being born with his frail body that would collapse if he gets a minor fever that's a slap in the face, a body that won't grow like the rest. Yet even if he gets hit he never kneels in front of everyone he would rather die, even though he got his face covered in bruises, his lip injured and his lungs were hurting just to breathe after he got his back kicked a dozen tis he won't do it. A coward but he isn't a loser he never once kneeled, well that's it for today's story it looks like we're here Moon has finally dropped the rod,"
He was outside of an alleyway that had a tavern within its wall along with Moon's constant hissing after he slled the potent and putrid scent of the poison that he swallowed earlier. Seeing his reaction Jin placed him in his bag before he entered the tavern filled with a bunch of players that were covered in tattoos along with their height which was twice his size. He slowly approached the bartender for a drink or two while everyone had their eyes on him at every passing second, impatient they are Jin didn't prolong his act and he stands on the stool he had once taken a seat on
"Hello, I'm here to kill anyone related to making that poison, if you're kind enough can you please raise your hand?"
