Chapter 499 Miss Death Reappears

She couldn\'t see him because she was blind. But with her magical powers, she could not only feel the familiar sensation coming from this young man, but she could also smell him and feel Vicente\'s facial contours to the point where she could form an image in her mind that resembled his real appearance.

She didn\'t understand where this strange and pleasant sensation came from but couldn\'t help but be interested.

"That brat?" One of her companions watched Vicente and didn\'t feel anything special.

But the older man narrowed his eyes as he stared at Vicente in silence, thinking better of his young miss\' words. \'Is this person related to her? If that\'s the case, then she has managed to retain some of her memories from before the brainwashing, even if it\'s only a vague feeling.

I\'ll look into it.\'

The white-haired man approached Miss Death and said. "It\'s common to have feelings like the one you just experienced. Most of us members of Nixlas\' Shadows have a terrible past. That\'s why we have our memories erased. But some remnants can remain and make us feel as if we\'ve seen or met people we actually don\'t recall.

That could be a sign that this young person looks like an old acquaintance of yours, or it could be a mere mistake, a false feeling. Given his past, I doubt you\'ve ever met him..."

Miss Death frowned, feeling that the young man\'s aura was so close to hers, but at the same time, she was disappointed. She understood very well how Nixlas\' Shadows worked. She knew that an elder had saved her from a terrible situation before she was brainwashed.

"Sigh... Then it\'s a mistake. I thought our sect\'s brainwashing was perfect. Why do I feel so familiar with a stranger? Honestly, I\'d rather not feel anything at all." She muttered, a bit annoyed.

The only woman next to her said. "The secrets of the mind are infinite, Miss. I can tell you that your brainwashing was perfect as far as our theories and knowledge are concerned. You went through the experience at the right age, and the one who dealt with you was the sect master himself.

If there\'s anything left to make you feel this way, it\'s in your mind. We can do nothing about it except tell you to ignore it."

Brainwashing worked best the weaker the victim. Miss Death was about to advance to the 4th stage, so even the master of Nixlas\' Shadows would have difficulty correcting this problem, which was first noticed today.

That\'s why none of her companions thought of taking her back to the sect to take care of this problem as a matter of urgency.

But one of them looked at Vicente strangely, wondering if it wouldn\'t be better to eliminate this young man.

"Maybe we should take care of him for the Miss?" The man asked, knowing Miss Death needed a name to use her special powers.

Miss Death looked at the man and said. "There is no need. That must be just an ordinary resident of Saltstar City. We\'ll be leaving this city for good soon, so I\'m unlikely to see him again."

The woman agreed. "You shouldn\'t suggest such things so easily. Don\'t forget that we are Dark Path practitioners. If mainland society thinks we\'re persecuting ordinary, innocent people, we will be persecuted!"

"There are ways to act without revealing that it was us..." He said to the woman. "But in any case, the Miss is right. Such a young man shouldn\'t be a problem, so let\'s ignore him for now."

The eldest of the group remained silent, wondering if he should do something. The feeling she had felt might be stronger than she had indicated, and there was a possibility that this young man was an old acquaintance of hers.

\'I will have someone from The Ruby Devils investigate this boy for me. If he\'s connected to the Miss, I\'d better eliminate him to avoid future problems.\' He thought to himself.

Then Miss Death said. "Let\'s continue with what we\'ve been doing. Snow Claw is harder to catch than I thought..."

They left with that in mind, as they were in this city to fulfill a mission that The Ruby Devils had paid Nixlas\' Shadows to send Miss Death on to kill Snow Claw.

...

Meanwhile, Vicente had no idea that he had just passed Miss Death\'s side, let alone that someone now had malicious plans against him.

He arrived at the place he had been told about earlier, the Book Emporium.

Entering the shop, he quickly chose the book Phantoms With Pride and paid for it.

When he sat down where customers could read, he read a few pages until a man with another book sat beside him.

"Don\'t look at me. Keep reading your book." The man said before going straight to the point without looking at Vicente while pretending to read his book. "What information are you looking for?"

Vicente did what he was supposed to do. "I want to know about the Bone Mountains. Especially information that is hard to get without good contacts or special investigators."

"Bone Mountains of the Chutha Dynasty?" The man asked, just to be sure.

It was possible that there were two sects/clans with the same name on the continent.

"Yes, that\'s the one. There\'s a member of that group I\'m also very interested in. He\'s known as Dax, and he\'s a Sovereign." Vicente said, adding another point to be answered.

"I see." The man murmured as he closed his eyes for a second. "I know someone who has information about the Bone Mountains. I can gather more detailed information about this group and give it to you in a month at the most. But as much as I\'ve heard stories about the one known as Dax, I\'d have to investigate him before I could talk about him properly.

I don\'t know anyone who knows the real story of this guy, so investigating him could be expensive."

"How much?" Vicente asked, willing to pay a lot to get information about one of his mother\'s killers.

"To investigate Dax, I\'ll need between 5,000 and 10,000 gold coins. He\'s a Sovereign, and as far as we know, he doesn\'t live in our kingdom. So I\'d have to leave Saltstar City, hire people from the Chutha Dynasty, and run into a lot of danger.

But it\'s very likely that I can get the information you\'re looking for if you\'re willing to pay the necessary amount. It will take me between six months and a year, but eventually, I\'ll have what you want."

That was a stratospheric amount of money for mere information. But this investigator wasn\'t trying to take advantage of Vicente. It wouldn\'t be easy to get information from someone like Dax, and the price would have to be very good for someone like him to put himself at risk for such a thing!
