Martial Arts Worlds

"I think I've heard about that."

Valerian said, reached out to the breast pocket of his coat, and pulled out his notebook, which had every page filled with notes.

"I think the World Detective Association received a word about Rodero's killings… Rodero's Police Force seems very troubled at that.

"Ah, here!"

Valerian turned the notebook around, showing a page, and tapped at the place that had been highlighted with a red circle.

"The deceased, men of age eighteen to seventy-five, have all been found dead in the same way.

"Naked, with a smile on their faces, and clear signs of having sexual intercourse just moments before dying.

"The wives, and girlfriends of the victims have all been interviewed, and no one confessed that they were the ones having sex with them before they died.

"Therefore, Rodero's Police Force came to the conclusion that they've had an affair, and they think it's all the doings of the same woman.

"With the help of Mindbreakers, they've tried to find out more about the culprit, but the victims have been Mind Blocked.

"Therefore, the power of Mindbreakers has failed to dig deep into their memories to see the face of the culprit."

Valerian said, then looked at Kiernan, and asked.

"So, the culprit is this Evelyn Moritz woman? I think I can bring this to the attention of the World Detective Association and send a few detectives to apprehend her."

"It's not only her. It's the women of the Lovely Flower Sect, close to a hundred of them, all doing the same thing.

"They're praying to some Lady Amarelyn, I think it was, and I think they target husbands and boyfriends of beautiful women, make them cheat on them, and then recruit their wives to be part of their sect.

"However, sometimes they also target random young men they find by the dungeon. I am surprised that they haven't been caught yet, as they aren't being really careful either."

Kiernan said.

"The problem is that no one has come clean that they might know something about the case."

Valerian said with a bothered look.

While there had been many witnesses of the victims hanging around with beautiful women of the Lovely Flower Sect and dying the next day, no one had come out with any information about the case.

It's because most of them didn't believe that the beautiful women of the Lovely Flower Sect would be capable of doing something so horrendous.

And the women of the Lovely Flower Sect had been careful when seducing someone by the dungeon. They sometimes sleep with them inside the dungeon instead so they can frame it as them dying to some Dungeon Dweller there.

"What help are you needing?"

Xerxus asked.

"They're currently targeting me, and I don't think I can keep hiding from them for very long. I can't even go to the dungeon without them coming after me."

Kiernan said.

"I'll be there in a couple of days, so you can wait for me, and I'll go handle them."

Xerxus said.

"I would appreciate the help, but they've made this very personal, and I'd rather want them to know that I was the one who killed them."

Kiernan said coldly.

What they tried to do with Aoi angered him to no end, and he had already decided that he wanted to take care of them by himself.

Thus, while he asked for help, he wasn't going to ask someone to deal with them for him.

"Then what do you want?"

Xerxus asked.

"With my martial rank, I am no match for them, and I need something that gives me the edge over them. Amara, do you still have some of that potion left?"

Kiernan asked.

"No… We took it all back in God Island, and to get those ingredients will take a couple more years at least."

Amara said with an apologetic look.

"Hmm…"

Kiernan rubbed his chin with a frown.

"I have an idea!"

Genevieve raised her arm with a serious look on her face, and as everyone turned to look at her, she pulled out a scrap of paper from her pocket.

She tossed it across the room, and while it floated down to the ground, the scrap of paper turned into a person.

It turned into Genevieve, looking exactly like her, but she didn't have any kind of expression on her face, and she didn't even look like she was breathing.

"Paper Puppet."

Pankratios said with a smile.

"You said that they've been doing the Arghman Ceremony and are going after you? I have a way to use that as your weapon."

Genevieve said, walked around the table, plucked a hair from Kiernan's head, and put it on the head of the paper puppet.

The paper puppet turned from a woman into a young man with gray hair, a handsome face, and a great body.

"I can add a Black Magic spell into the paper puppet, so when someone is attempting to do Arghman's Ceremony with the puppet, it redirects the spell back to the person performing it.

"So, instead of the paper puppet dying, it will be the woman of the Lovely Flower Sect who meets her demise."

Genevieve said with a cold smile.

'It's indeed a plan. I do not know how to feel about it, as those paper puppets will look like me, so it's almost the same as me having sex with those women.

'I can't let Aoi find out, even if it's not really me having sex with them, but to save myself from some headaches, I'll have to do this quietly.'

Kiernan thought and nodded.

"How many paper puppets do you have?"

"How many do you need?"

"About a hundred."

"Done."

Genevieve quickly did the Black Magic spell on the paper puppet, then copied and pasted it into the other hundred paper puppets, which were still just scraps of paper.

"Come here."

Genevieve said, and Kiernan walked over to her.

"Talk."

"Hello, hello, hello."

Kiernan said, echoing the same word three times, and then the paper puppet said the exact same thing with his voice.

"The paper puppet will now be able to speak just like you, but I must warn you, these paper puppets aren't made for fighting.

"They can perform basic actions, but if the Lovely Flower Sect women attack them, they will notice that something is wrong."

"I understand. I don't think it will go to that point, as I already know what I will do with these puppets."
