"Hahaha, I finally beat you mister. I knew you could not beat me."
"But I already won four times before this match."
"Umm...that was just a fluke. I was just out of shape. That's all. But I did beat you this time."
"Well, what can I do? I did not know your pawn was so powerful. I mean he moved four steps at a time."
"Oh! So you did notice."
"Ofcourse I noticed. Who do you take me for? I noticed everytine you cheated, you little brat."
Louisa woke up hearing some voices and found out that she was inside a room lying on a bed. The room's condition was not so good and same could be said for the bed.
She looked around and found Sammy and Andrew sitting on the floor, playing chess.
When did I get here? Wait! Wasn't I fighting that Scottman. What happened? Did I win? How did I get here?
Sammy looked towards the bed and found that Louisa had already woken up.
"Hey hey, look at that, someone had a nice sleep." Sammy said, teasing Louisa.
Andrew looked towards confused Louisa. He was about to greet her, but she started speaking first.
"Where are we? Was I able to kill Jin or not? Is he dead?" She asked.
"Woah miss, I think you should take it easy on us. Why are you bombarding us with so many questions. It's not like we are going to hide anything from you." Andrew said.
"Jin Scottman is a closed chapter now. You do not have to worry about him. He is already dead." Sammy said while picking up chess pieces from the chess board.
"But I don't remember killing him. How can I trust you?"
"You don't remember killing him because you did not kill him. I was the one who killed him." Sammy said.
"You killed him....! How can I trust you?" There was a look of surprise in Louisa's eyes.
"I did not bring his head or anything with me to show you. But who knows, maybe his deadbody is still in Pickvoid. Though I don't think that is the case. But you can still check if you want. But even if you do not, the news will eventually come in a newspaper."
Louisa was not completely convinced but she could tell that he was not lying.
"Hey! Did you gain your memories? Your behaviour is a bit different from before. And if you were able to kill Jin, then you must have used your powers which you said you did not know how to use." Louisa asked Sammy with a serious expression.
Andrew looked at Sammy with a little fear in his eyes.
Sammy looked at both Louisa and Andrew and smiled." Who knows, what you think about it? Do you think I have gained my memories?" Sammy said in a teasing voice.
Louisa looked at him with anger. She knew he was trying to hide the truth from her.
Sammy closed his eyes and smiled again."Wheather I have regained my memory or not is not something you are concerned with. You wanted me to help you kill Jin Scottman. I did help you, right. Then that's it. I have completed my end of the contract."
Before Louisa could say anything, Andrew started speaking as if he did not want to talk about this topic anymore." That's right. Mister alredy helped you in killing that guy. Now you should tell us what you know about what happened to us."
Louisa wanted to know about Sammy. But then she thought for a moment. He is right. Wheather he has gained his memory or not has got nothing to do with me. He helped me kill Jin. Infact he was the one to kill him. My work is already done. I should not interfere with his buisness. I should help them too.
"Well, you are right about that." Louisa said.
"Then quickly tell us what you know." Andrew said.
Louisa sighed and started speaking," from what happened with you in the village, I can assume that it was done by someone from the Philosopher route."
"Are you talking about the village turning into dust?" Andrew asked.
"Yes. Dominators from that route have the power to imbue things with their spirit force at a high awakening. Then they can create structures or other things by joining the things they had imbued their spirit force with. They can also dismantle those things. While dismantling, one can also make the material travel far distances in the form of black dust.The materials used to make the houses in your Village were most likely imbued by the spirit force of a dominator from the Philosopher domain. He created the houses there and he was the one to dismantle them. Then he made the material disappear from there. But it would take a huge amount of spirit force to do this, considering that he had created a whole village."
"But why would someone do such a thing? It is a lot of trouble." Andrew asked with curiosity, meanwhile Sammy was sitting there quitely as if he was not interested in what she was saying. But he still listened attentively.
"In this supernatural world, it is not very difficult to know about someone even from a very small clue. So he most likely built the entire village just to erase it later so that no one would get even a single clue. But it was his bad luck that you saw the whole thing happening."
"Do you know who did it?" Andrew asked.
"I only know a very few dominators from that route in. And there are only two who have awakened to such a level to do so. From the two,one is not from this country. So the other one is most likely your guy."
"Who is he?"
"He is Simon Roads. He is the head of a branch of a faction know as the True Earthlings active in Manstoul city. It is a faction under the Church of Godess Earth. This faction exists to do the shady works of that church. But because noone has found any direct connection between the Church and the True Earthlings, noone was able to prove that this faction works under the Church."
"Churches are not as good as I thought they would be. But does that mean that this Simon is in Manstoul city?"Andrew asked.
"That is most likely the case. But I cannot tell you their location as noone knows about it."
"Thank you miss, you have given us some important information. Now we just have to find the location of that faction." Andrew said in excitement.
"Finding the location of their faction is not easy. Noone has been able to do so. And even if you find it, I do not think that you can beat them. No matter how strong that guy sitting over there is, you will still be fighting a whole faction."
"You do not have to worry about that. You have played your part. Now leave the rest to us. You just wait for the news that Jin Scottman is dead." Sammy finally broke his silence and said.
"You want me to believe that a single guy can take on a whole faction. That is very difficult even for the members of The Null Unit. Nobody would believe such things." Louisa said.
"Hahahaha!" Sammy laughed and said, "don't believe me, just watch."
...
In the middle of the night Sammy was standing at the top of the hotel building he was staying in.
Soon a black coloured raven with four wings came flying towards Sammy. A smile appeared on Sammy's face after seeing that raven. The raven gave Sammy something that looked like a map.
Sammy opened that map and looked at it thoroughly. There was a cross Mark on one place at that map.
"So this is where the True Earthlings reside."
