Eye Analysis
The Living Souls's Lantern
Since they came at night, it was now around 2 am. Lein and Jonas set up a campfire at the initial location.
The two of them talked about who 'they' Lason meant before he died of poison.
Despite not knowing who 'they' were meant to be, Lein and Jonas thought of something similar, the Anarchy Order.
Lein also added to his opinion that the Anarchy Order had three criminals kill innocent people who would be made into a ritual.
Because while in Els City, they also had plans to summon Great Demon Jareth at the expense of the citizens of Els City.
...----------------...
"It's..." Village Chief Mudbell widened his eyes when he saw three criminals were arrested.
"Two people who were tied up were still alive even though they were dying. The man lying down is dead by suicide." Lein said to the village chief.
"Thank you gentlemen... I as the Village Chief of Mudbell represent all Mudbell Village residents to say a big thank you..." The village chief lowered his head.
"Sama-sama the village head. We did this also because of the mission given by the Mudbell Villagers." Reply Lein with a small smile.
"But...I already know that the fee given by us is very little compared to the task we asked for.." The Village Chief said in a low tone.
"If I'm honest, it's true. But we took this mission not for money or for doing good things to your head."
"But because we wanted to investigate something as to why the three criminals killed so many innocent civilians."
"And we're also a little suspicious because SID didn't handle the case. SID is an organization that handles cases related to people with abilities, right?"
"We therefore suspect why the three criminals were left alone..." Lein explains the reason why he took the mission though not all of it.
"If so, I might be able to help you both..." The village chief said in a serious tone.
"Help us? If it had anything to do with what we needed, we'd be very grateful." Lein.
"No need sir, instead I help you both as a thank you and for a little extra pay...." The village chief smiled.
"Haha, okay..." Lein laughed a little.
"Wait a minute, sir. I'll take something in the back." The village chief stood up and entered the kitchen of the house.
It didn't take long, the village chief had already returned with an object covered by cloth.
"Is that what you mean?" Ask Lein.
"true." The village chief sat down and put the thing on the table.
The village head opened the cloth that covered the object and saw the form of an object covered with cloth.
"Lantern?" Lein and Jonas said simultaneously.
"really. If seen maybe you think this is an ordinary lantern, but if you feel it with mana, there's something strange."
"I got this lantern next to the body of one of the villagers who died from being killed by three criminals." The village chief said sadly.
"Analysis." Lein analyzed the lantern in front of her.
[the analysis continues ]
[ Soul Lantern
rank : A
a magical lantern that can store the souls of living beings inside her and use those souls to create black magic ]
"..." - ".Lein tells Jonas about the lantern in front of him via voice transmission.
"...So it's clear who did this.." Reply Jonas.
"Sir, do you know the usefulness of these lanterns?" Ask the village chief.
"We don't know for sure. But we know that these lanterns are damned." Lein decided to tell a lie because he did not want the village chief involved.
"Cursed? Lately I've been having bad dreams." The village chief was a little surprised.
"Then we'll bring this, village chief." Lein stored the soul lantern into his inventory.
"Good." Nod the village chief.
After a short chat, Lein and Jonas leave after the village chief rewards him with a mission of 300,000 FEZ.
"Boss, if the village chief finds a soul lantern next to the body of a person killed by three criminals, the, so they were on the hill for a long time waiting for the souls of the humans they killed to collect?" Ask Jonas.
"Looks like. Since they didn't take the lanterns, then your speech is possible." Answer Lein.
"Also, the reason why Lason was only using such weak magic was probably because he was preparing for something big." Added Lein.
"Hm, is it possible to use large-scale magic to kill all the citizens of Mudbell Village?" Jonas expressed his opinion.
"The highest possibility is that" nods Lein.
They both take three criminals to a nearby town and hand them over to the local police while showing their identities and proof of the mission.
Local police confirmed the identity and mission taken by Lein and Jonas. Then they put Pavlos and Zinon in prison.
Then for Lason, the police keep his body in the morgue so that later it can be examined by their forensic doctor.
After Lein and Jonas came out of the police station, their phones both rang simultaneously.
Lein and Jonas check their phones and see that they are both on the news.
The news is that the two of them have already solved three criminals who have killed dozens of innocent people.
This was also one of the rewards from the village chief that Lein asked for and the village chief gladly agreed.
This was Lein's real goal for people to assume that he was a good person and would forget about Isolda's troubles.
The crowd praised Lein and Jonas. Then they also question the credibility of SID who ignored the case.
They flocked to enter the official SID forum and staged massive protests in their forum.
But they became even more angry because SID only told them not to make useless protests.
They even discussed the protest and did not tell the reason why they ignored the three criminal cases.
"Huh, eat that." Lein and Jonas grin when they find SID is flooded with negative voices.
Lein and Jonas do hate SID but they don't do anything as useless as attacking them.
It is precisely Lein 'revenge' by provoking the sympathy of the community and making it seem as if SID is a negligent organization..
"Jonas, let's eat there. I've been hungry all night because I haven't eaten." Said Lein while pointing at the hot pot restaurant.
"Hot pots? Boss, it's morning." Jonas is speechless with Lein choosing a hot pot restaurant.
"Ehhh right too. Then we'll just go there." Lein walked towards the restaurant next to her which was a noodle restaurant.
"Well if this is okay." Jonas also walked after Lein.
"Master! Give me five different servings of noodles each!" Shouted Lein while ordering the noodles he wanted.
"I'm two servings!" Jonas also ordered noodles.
"All right! Please sit down and wait a minute!" Reply to the restaurant owner who turned out to be the one who cooked his noodles.
