Creating something out of nothing wasn't an easy task.
It could even be considered very difficult.
But that was only for normal people.
For Kieran, it was quite easy.
He had a useful, practical, and durable follower.
Kieran was writing while he ordered Bloody Mary to act according to plan. Bloody Mary, who had disguised itself as a young man, had been waiting for a while.
After receiving Kieran's order, it stood up and walked out of the room.
"The party is starting!"
The young man that Bloody Mary impersonated was Palreynold, a 4th year student of Theorate. He had a normal look and average strength, so even though he was promoted to 4th year, he was still an inconspicuous existence.
As a matter of fact, Palreynold's strength was quite decent, on par with some of the slightly famous 4th year students.
Palreynold did this to hide his secret: he was a disciple of Sil Sect.
Or more precisely, he was a spy from Sil Sect.
He had a special mission.
He came to Theorate to investigate more secrets and became one of the students.
Bloody Mary discovered Palreynold when Kieran was ambushed by the Sil Sect.
With Frost Wolf's cooperation, Bloody Mary easily discovered Palreynold and even found a secret base of Sil Sect.
When a secret was discovered, more secrets would follow, just like how a lie would need more lies to cover up.
After discovering Palreynold's secret, Bloody Mary started to follow the clues.
Over the past few days, it didn't just get a hold of the three Sil Sect bases in E Block, it even found more Sil Sect members.
Why did it choose Palreynold?
Palreynold was considered a secret in Sil Sect and had quite the persuasive power, but also because he was dead without a body, which would cause a lot of trouble.
Bloody Mary didn't make a move, Palreynold died in a chaotic battle.
Other than Garcia and the others who were searching for the Index of Eat in the open, many other organizations and factions were hiding in the dark. However, the hiding wasn't absolute, conflicts were unavoidable, and it was only natural for casualties to occur.
Palreynold was one of the unlucky ones.
He didn't cause any trouble, instead, he was dragged into the acid mist and died without a body.
Of course, the more important reason was that Kieran had the thought of leaving Sil Sect.
Habit is a terrible thing.
After staying in Theorate for four years, Palreynold was used to his new life. His teachers taught him with care, sufficient resources, a fair environment for competition, and he had friends that he had never had before. Everything made him reluctant to leave this place, and he did not want to leave.
Palreynold had his own ideas since half a year ago.
These thoughts did not develop into any drastic actions. They were just slacking off and some petty thoughts.
However, to Bloody Mary, it was an opportunity that it could exploit.
Tap, tap, tap.
Bloody Mary walked down from the upper year dorm and when it passed the vending machine at the entrance, it took out its school badge and bought a carton of orange juice and a carton of yogurt.
If there was anything that kept it going during every mission, it would be sunlight and food.
In the middle of the night, when there was no sunlight, food was the only option.
Of course, Bloody Mary did not make a rash decision.
It had chosen some of Palreynold's original eating habits.
Along the path beside the dorm, Bloody Mary headed to a coffee shop further away.
It was late at night, and the coffee shop was dark.
Bloody Mary took out the key and easily entered the coffee shop. It didn't even need to turn on the lights, it walked down the familiar path to the underground room.
In the past few days, it had familiarized itself with the surroundings.
Unlike the darkness on the surface, the underground room was bright.
The seven people who had arrived earlier were sitting in their respective seats.
Bloody Mary's gaze swept over the crowd.
He knew all the people in front of him. They could be considered as all the hidden members of Sil Sect in E Block.
The leader of the group, Palreynold's superior, Morrison, was sitting in the corner. He was the second-year kitchen utensils and maintenance teacher in Theorate.
It was also the highest position in E Block that Sil Sect got.
Next on the list was Palreynold's fourth-year student.
As for the remaining five, other than a second-year student, the rest were the school workers.
According to Sil Sect's original plan, they would send more members into Theorate this year, but with Kieran's appearance, it messed up the plan.
The few new members in the plan didn't even become freshmen in Theorate, instead, they became auditing students.
Without a doubt, their identities were not qualified to be in Theorate.
"Everyone is here.
What do you guys think about the Index of Eat? "
After Bloody Mary sat on its seat, Morrison spoke. Out of habit, his voice was disguised, sounding hoarse and unpleasant to the ears.
"We have lost a few good men in a row.
I suggest we stop the operation. "
The second-year student suggested in a hurry.
Right after he said that, he threw a provocative gaze at Palreynold.
Conflict was unavoidable no matter where.
Sil Sect shared the same fate.
As the vice leader of Theorate's Sil Sect, Palreynold's performance in the past half a year wasn't enough to convince the others, causing some to have ulterior motives.
The second-year student was one of them.
Maybe before the few good men died, the second-year student wouldn't have any ulterior motives. After all, even if Palreynold was removed from his position, he wouldn't get any benefits.
But it was different now!
After the few good men died, the second-year student became the highest-ranking member after Morrison and Palreynold.
Once Palreynold was taken down, the second-year student would become the vice leader.
Once he thought about the secret technique he would get after becoming the vice leader, the second-year student was eager to get his hands on it.
"Seconded!"
"Seconded!"
After the second-year student's voice subsided, the others nodded in agreement.
It wasn't that they were siding with the second-year student, but it was the truth. The competition for the Index of Eat was getting more and more intense, and they no longer had the strength to participate.
Rather than losing more men and eventually dying on the battlefield, they might as well give up.
The second-year student's eyes were filled with delight and provocation when he heard the others seconding his suggestion.
Everything was just as he expected.
Morrison glanced at the second-year student, the leader of Sil Sect who hid in Theorate, and he knew what the second-year student wanted to do.
However, Morrison didn't stop him.
It was what Morrison was happy to see.
Not only could it make the organization more dynamic, but it could also make his position more stable.
Especially the latter, it was what Morrison cared about the most.
"Palreynold, what do you think?"
It sounded like a question but it was actually a provocation.
Morrison wasn't looking for an iron plate and loving subordinates, he preferred the subordinates who fought each other to the death and fawned over him.
"No."
Bloody Mary answered straightforwardly.
Bloody Mary, of course, saw the second-year student's gaze. If it had a choice, it would have ignored the second-year student, not even Morrison's question.
Its target wasn't the second-year student.
However, for the sake of its boss's plan, it had to play along.
It was obvious that Bloody Mary's cooperation was very successful. The moment its words subsided, the second-year student who thought he had seized the opportunity jumped out.
"As the vice leader, Palreynold, don't you have any constructive suggestions?
And for the past half a year, you've been using all sorts of excuses to shirk your duty, what are you trying to do?
Could it be …
Are you trying to break away from the organization? "
The second-year students were becoming aggressive.
The others around him showed an eager expression, waiting for a good show.
They knew what the second-year student was trying to do, but what did it have to do with them? No matter who became their superior, their treatment wouldn't change.
Besides, watching those who were higher ranked than them fight each other to the death also satisfied the despicable thoughts in their hearts.
Bloody Mary was calculating the time it would take for the second-year student to arrive. It slowly stood up and walked to the second-year student.
The second-year student was shocked and instinctively wanted to step back, but when he felt the support of the chair behind him, he quickly reacted to the situation.
"What are you trying to do?
Are you angry because I hit the nail on the head?
Or are you … "
Pak!
Before the second-year student could finish his sentence, a heavy slap landed on his face. The immense force caused him to fall to the ground along with his chair.
"You?!"
The moment he opened his mouth, his teeth, mixed with blood, were spat out.
The second-year student looked at Palreynold blankly.
It seemed like the second-year student didn't expect this to happen.
"I'm just telling you to keep your distance."
Bloody Mary said calmly.
The calm tone was very similar to Kieran's, or more precisely, Bloody Mary imitated Kieran's tone perfectly.
"Palreynold, what are you doing?"
Morrison, who had been quiet all this while, slammed the table and shouted.
He didn't want to see this kind of direct scene, he wanted something more turbulent in the dark, so he had to correct his mistake.
Then …
Pak!
Similar to how the second-year student was slapped, Morrison was also slapped to the ground by Bloody Mary.
Morrison looked at Bloody Mary in disbelief with his mouth full of blood.
He didn't believe Bloody Mary would dare to hit him, nor did he believe Bloody Mary could defeat him so easily.
Since Morrison was able to become a teacher in Theorate, his strength was undeniable.
In Theorate, a teacher's strength far surpassed a student's.
Wiping the blood off his mouth, Morrison glared at Bloody Mary. The angered Bloody Mary didn't even bother to conceal its killing intent.
"You want to offend your superior?
Take him down! "
Morrison shouted.
Five Sil Sect members surrounded Bloody Mary right away.
"Offend my superior?
"No!"
I am also telling you that you are a superior and a subordinate. "
Bloody Mary shook its head.
"Nonsense!"
What are you guys waiting for?
Do it! "
Morrison crawled up from the ground and was ready to join the encirclement. The 2nd year student beside him didn't care about the pain on his face and mouth, he showed a cruel smile on his bloody face and wanted to join the encirclement as well. He swore in his heart that he would pay back tenfold, a hundredfold.
But right after that, the second-year student widened his eyes.
Pak Pak Pak Pak Pak!
Five consecutive slaps later, the five Sil Sect members that surrounded Bloody Mary fell to the ground with their hands over their faces. Similar to Morrison and the second-year student, each of them had a mouth full of blood.
Morrison, who wanted to go over, stopped.
His body stiffened as he looked at Bloody Mary in shock.
"W-Who are you?!
Why are you pretending to be Palreynold?! "
Morrison didn't believe Palreynold had the power to do such a thing.
But!
Someone believed it!
"Him?
Of course, Palreynold! "
An unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded, and five figures with powerful auras immediately appeared, blocking the entrance to the underground room.
Garcia then appeared behind the five figures.
"Garcia?!"
Without a doubt, Garcia wasn't an unknown existence among the fourth-year students. The moment he appeared, he attracted a series of exclamations in the room.
Then, a bad thought appeared in their minds.
"Palreynold, you betrayed us!
"You've sided with Garcia!"
You traitor! "
Morrison roared furiously, but his eyes were fixed on a corner of the room.
Just in case, Morrison secretly built a secret passage when he chose this place as his secret stronghold. However, it took time to open this secret passage.
Now, he needed someone to buy time for him.
"Go!"
Fight them to the death! "
Morrison instigated the others around him, but at the next moment, Garcia's words sent chills down his spine.
"Idiots!
Do you really think I didn't notice the secret passage you left behind when I appeared here? "
Morrison's body wobbled and his face turned pale. His peaceful life in Theorate had robbed him of the courage to risk his life. He looked at the rather famous 4th year student in front of him, his mouth opened and closed a few times, but in the end, he said dejectedly, "I-I surrender!"
The others around him were at a loss because of the series of events, and when they heard Morrison surrender, they quickly followed up.
"I surrender too!"
"Me too!"
Voices of surrender echoed in his ears, but Garcia didn't even bat an eye at them. His attention was placed on 'Palreynold', who had fallen into silence the moment he appeared.
The expected silence made Garcia feel satisfied.
"Seems like you have figured out what happened.
Mr. Palreynold of Sil Inner Sect, please tell me where Lude is!
Or … "
"Hand over the Index of Eat!"
Garcia said coldly.
Sil Inner Sect?!
There was an Inner Sect in Sil Sect?!
H-How was this possible?!
