Chapter 395: Fifty Predator and Predator (6K)_3
So Miss Hevnia was able to perform “Day Stealing” and clear all suspicion in such circumstances.
Visas… did he really not have the ability to predict the future?
Once again, Hevnia couldn’t help but start pondering this question.
Since Hevnia’s identity had been fully confirmed, Gucci no longer had anything to conceal.
“Miss Hevnia, since you are aware of the characteristics of the score, you should understand what the other party wants to do,” Gucci said, “He came for the festival. He wants to gather… no, I should say seize, he wants to seize seven golden notes and play the Seven Notes·Divine Song at the festival. Right now, he likely already has his hands on… at least three notes.”
At least three Golden Notes?
Hevnia was somewhat surprised. Why did they also know that the fake Daniel had three Golden Notes?
But she quickly realized that Gucci must have counted Tupac in the calculation.
Indeed, Gucci soon said, “These three Golden Notes are Mr. Daniel Ether’s First Note, Mr. Tupac Roger’s Fifth Note, and Miss Orenna Finis’s Seventh Note.”
Hevnia feigned surprise, “Mr. Tupac and Mr. Daniel… they met with accidents too?”
“Yes,” Gucci nodded, “He and Miss Orenna both met their demise yesterday.”
When Orenna was mentioned, Hevnia’s peripheral vision caught Phinis’s fists clenching slightly.
“So, you should understand how ruthless and… powerful he is,” Gucci said, “Theoretically, he can now unleash the Chorus Magic of the Seven Notes on his own, which means any individual Player facing him would be hard-pressed to win. Moreover, he can also disguise himself as the owner of the stolen notes. I’m sorry to tell you, Miss Hevnia, that the Daniel who has been in contact with you since you returned to the academy was a substitute.”
Upon hearing Gucci’s words, Hevnia timely feigned a frightened expression, her eyes widening: “How… how can this be!”
Then she immediately shed all suspicions off herself.
“Why didn’t he strike me then?”
“That’s also something I wanted to ask, Miss Hevnia. Have you been alone with that Daniel these past few days?” Gucci asked seriously, “You’d better tell me everything in detail, including every time you met.”
Still appearing quite scared, Hevnia took several deep breaths to barely calm down before she stammered out the “detailed circumstances” of her meetings with Daniel.
Of course, these “detailed circumstances” were also orchestrated by Bai Wei.
After listening to Hevnia’s narration, Gucci nodded slightly, “That explains it.”
“…Explains it?”
“You’re very lucky, Miss Hevnia. I think the reason he never attacked you is that he didn’t find an opportunity to be alone with you,” Gucci said. “You met three times in total. The first time, when you had just returned to the academy, would have been the most opportune, but at that time he must have just struck the real Daniel and wasn’t in the best condition to act.”
“The second time, Mr. Phinis and Mr. Tupac found you, so he couldn’t make a move.”
“The third time, which was the last time, he probably decided to act, but just then Miss Orenna had completed her Ascension and had become the Golden Seventh Note. Perhaps he thought that the newly ascended Miss Orenna was an easier target, so he changed his plans.”
Hevnia’s body immediately shivered, perfectly portraying a look of fear that comes after a close brush with death.
“All right, Miss Hevnia, at least you are safe now,” Gucci consoled, “Nevertheless, he probably won’t consider you a target anymore since he now has the Golden Seventh Note. But even so, you still need to be careful, as we cannot rule out that he will continue hunting other Golden Notes to ensure he can secure the Lord’s wish.”
Upon hearing this, Hevnia blurted out like a scared little white, “If that’s the case… why not put a hold on the festival and catch this person first?”
Hearing Hevnia say this, Gucci hadn’t spoken yet when Leon next to him frowned and interjected, “What foolishness? How could the festival possibly be canceled? Don’t you know that would be mocking the Lord?!”
Hevnia immediately shrank back in fear.
And Gucci timely said, “It’s all right, Leon. Miss Hevnia was just scared. Don’t be so aggressive.”
He paused, then continued, “But as your tutor said, the festival cannot be canceled. Miss Hevnia, you should know that no matter what he has done, as long as he appears before the Lord at the last moment, no one can stop him from performing for the Lord. That’s why he is so confident. The Lord is indifferent to the process; only the result matters… so the process is what we need to consider.”
As Gucci said this, he handed Hevnia a list.
Hevnia took the list and glanced it over, recognizing all the familiar names.
In addition to the three Golden Notes from last night, there were also Arianna and Daphne.
“Dean, what does this mean?”
“This is a list of people confirmed missing after our investigation,” Gucci said. “These people were very likely also killed by that individual. Remember what I told you earlier? The score can transform a robbed note, so he might be disguising himself as these people. Therefore, wherever you see these people, you must immediately be vigilant because it’s very likely that it is that individual… I suppose you should be quite familiar with the names on the list.”
What do you think?
