"So, you are the one who is after the class-gem, huh," Eve said in a gloomy voice and then showed a confused expression on her face.

"But we don't have any class-gem, Martin."

Meanwhile, Charles was also puzzled by the current situation and asked her.

'What about this class gem, mom? Why are they here?'

Eve paused for a moment to organized her thoughts and spoke in her mind.

'I saw a vision four weeks ago. In that vision, I saw some blurry humans visited our house and took a red-colored class gem from here. Other than that, I'm also in a clueless state.'

Charles went silent for a moment as he heard those words and then said with a sigh.

'Tell them to search the house if they want, mom. We don't need to get involved in trouble anymore.'

Eve raised her head in surprise and then nodded.

She then stared at Martin Nightwind for a second and said calmly.

"If you want to search for any class-gem in this house, go on. I won't stop you guys."

At that moment, Saron White stood up from her seat, went near the ornate sofa, and stood beside Eve like a faithful bodyguard.

Meanwhile, Anderson and the other blonde-haired guy also sat on the ladder back chairs, placed on the opposite side, and waited silently.

Their strange action caused Eve, the black-haired woman, Saron, and even Charles to frown in displeasure.

As Eve was about to ask about their purpose, the blonde-haired man suddenly opened the ancient book, flipped the pages, and said in a cold tone.

"87."

He then shook his head as he closed the book and went silent.

'87? What does that mean?' Charles and others got more puzzled.

At this moment, Martin cleared his throat and asked Eve with an awkward smile on his face.

"Eve, can you give us some drinks? You know, it's not etiquette to not giving some drinks to the guests."

Anger appeared on her face as she stared at Martin with a cold gaze and said in an icy tone,

"I wouldn't forgive you for trying to kill my son, Mr. Martin. Now, shut your mouth and get out of this place once you find this so-called class-gem."

Martin didn't get angry, though. Instead, he shook his head and leaned his back against the ladder back chair.

Two minutes later, the blonde-haired man opened the ancient-looking book once again, glanced at it, and muttered.

"94."

'Why is he counting numbers?' Charles became dumbfounded by the blonde-haired man's sudden action and soon thought of a possibility.

'Could it be him?' He suddenly recalled the Holem's Crown's words.

'Mr. Runeth said that he once met the member of the Nightwind Family in this city… He said that the Nightwind family member appeared around 40 to 50 years old, had long wavy blonde hair, a lean body, and ocean-like blue eyes. He also saw him entering Slum Street's orphanage, and looked more like a mage because of his blue robe.' Charles instantly turned his gaze towards the blonde-haired old man and then froze.

'He is Xander Nightwind! Red Prince... Watcher Class Mystic!' As he was about to warn Eve, Charles suddenly noticed that Xander was looking in a particular direction!

A moment later, his lips curled up abnormally and formed into a wicked grin.

"98." He said in an eerie voice.

The next instant, Martin suddenly raised his hand, pointed his finger towards that direction, and uttered a word in a strange language.

"Zue'at."

Then, the right side space began to twist into a strange way and folded into a cube-like structure!

But what caused Charles and others to widen their eyes was not the spell but the one who appeared in the cubic space.

It was none other than the assassin who revealed his presence a while ago!

"What are you doing?" The black-haired woman sharpened her silvery gaze towards Martin and asked in a threatening tone.

Although she was a Rank-4 Head Deacon of Life Church, she was still surprised by the mortal's action and got warier.

Martin didn't reply, though. Instead, he opened a vortex-like portal by saying another word and threw the cube into it through his thought!

At this time, Anderson stood up from his seat and asked the black-haired woman with a solemn look on his face,

"Lady Rachel, would you please go outside for a moment?"

For a moment, rage appeared in her silvery eyes as she raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

A second later, a thin bolt of lightning came out from her forefinger and moved towards Anderson at a fast speed!

On the other hand, Anderson didn't expect her to attack him without warning and hurriedly created a shield made of white light.

Just when the bolt was about to collide against the shield, the lightning suddenly made a slight turn, went directly to the blonde-haired man, and hit him on his chest!

In an instant, the bolt of lightning entered his body and paralyzed him on the spot!

"He can't move a muscle for the next 15 minutes." The black-haired woman named Rachel said in a confident tone and then zeroed her focus on Anderson.

"It seems you already made a deal with a Devil, Anderson."

Her words caused Anderson's facial muscles to stiffen up.

He stood in silence for a whole two seconds, then conjured a slim illusionary sword out of thin air and asked with a wary look on his face.

"How did you find out?"

"How?" Rachel tilted her head as she pointed her finger at Martin and then added with a smile.

"I do know something about the Devil's Tongue, Anderson. If I'm not wrong, the word 'Zue' means 'Space' and 'at' means 'Lock' in the Devil's Language. When he spoke earlier, he not only pronounced correctly, he even said in a Devils' unique style. That means the possibility of him being the reincarnation of a Devil is very high."

A look of astonishment appeared on Anderson's face as he stared at her for a moment and then smiled forcefully.

"It seems I don't have a choice now."

A moment later, he sprinted towards Rachel at an unpredictable speed and soon appeared in front of her.

"Naïve." Swirls of lightning covered her whole body in an instant as she said in a cold tone and then disappeared.

Before Anderson could understand the situation, he suddenly felt that his whole body went stiff all of a sudden!

"Although I'm just a Rank-4 Lightning Mage, I once killed a Rank-5 Metal Dragon alone, Anderson. Do you think you have enough strength to stand against me?" An icy voice came from behind as he stared at the granite wall in horror.

Due to the sudden stiffness, the old man couldn't control the momentum and directly smashed on the granite wall!

With a bang, the whole house shook for a second!

A second later, Anderson's body fell backward, and his eyes stared at the ceiling in shock and disbelief.

In seconds, he tasted a salty liquid that entered his mouth and soon noticed that it was his own blood!

'She is powerful!' He tried to speak a word, but he couldn't.

In the meantime, Rachel directly appeared in front of Martin and moved her lightning-covered hand towards his cheek.

A loud slapping sound echoed in an instant!

In a second, Martin's left cheek torn open, and soon his teeth started to fell one by one, along with blood!

Martin couldn't even have the time to think as he felt that the world around him started to move strangely.

In the meantime, Rachel gripped Martin's head with her large hands, turned it around with a snap, and made it face in an abnormal angle!

She killed him in a second!

'She is ruthless.' That was the first word that came to everyone's mind!

As she was about to turn her attention on Xander Nightwind, a cold voice echoed in her mind.

"100."

No, everyone heard that word in their minds!

"What are you doing-?" Rachel suddenly felt some invisible power appeared in her mind and stopped her from thinking further!

Before she could understand the situation, the space around her began to twist and soon pulled her into the void.

Her mind went chaos in a second.

A moment later, she found herself standing on the outskirt of Riverdale City and became dumbfounded!

"Forceful Teleportation?" She didn't even think for a moment before she covered herself with full of lightning sparks and sprinted towards the city at an unpredictable speed!

Meanwhile, a strange silence remained in the reception hall.

A second later, Saron White took a dagger out of nowhere and plunged into Eve's chest!

Yes, she plunged into Eve's chest!

Even Charles didn't expect her sudden betrayal and became shocked!

"HAA-!" Meanwhile, Eve cried out in pain and soon widened her deep-blue eyes.

"Betrayer." A weak voice squeezed out of her mouth, and soon her gaze landed on Charles.

Even at that moment, a weak smile appeared on her face.

'Take care of yourself, son.' She said in his mind and then coughed out a mouthful of blood.

In the meantime, Saron pulled the dagger from her chest and once again plunged it into Eve's heart!

She didn't stop there, though. She continuously stabbed her chest and tormented her chest area in seconds.

Upon watching this brutal scene, Charles's eyes went icy cold.

He gripped his illusionary fist and stood with a grim look on his face.

He had seen many brutal assassinations and even done these types of missions himself. But this was a completely different one.

'I failed to protect her.'

Finally, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

He knew that even if he were here with his physical body, the chance of saving her would be almost zero in this situation.

'Moreover, why is she smiling like this?' He stared at her smiling face for a moment and got confused.

'Only those who won something big would smile like this.' His heart thumped harder.

'Did she foresee this incident and already accomplished something big?' A strange thought appeared in his mind.

While he was racking his brain, the emotions left behind by the real Charles started acting up. The years of memories appeared in front of his eyes one by one like a video recorder!

In the meantime, Eve's body shook uncontrollably for a whole ten seconds and soon went motionless. But the smile on her face didn't fade away at all!

She died with a smile on her face.
