Lucy entered the mixed baths, in a towel obviously.

"Mikey, are you here?" She asks.

"Yeah, right here." Mikey shows up from behind a large rock which is inside the hot spring.

"What did you want to ask me?" Lucy asks.

"It's a long subject, get in the water so that you don't get cold." Mikey says and turns his back to Lucy.

Lucy puts away her towel and enters the hot spring. She goes towards Mikey and turns around aswell.

His back is huge, not only that, how did he get all of those scars? I'll have to ask him... She thinks to herself.

Lucy leans her back against Mikey's back.

"We can talk like this, if you don't mind."

"Sure, no problem with me." Mikey replies.

"So, what did you want to ask me?" Lucy goes straight to the subject.

"It's really important, I've noticed it since we entered this Island." Mikey says, leaving Lucy hanging.

Could it be? Lucy asks herself. Is this really a confession?? Lucy blushes for some reason.

"Mikey-"

"Lucy-"

They turn around and face eachother, they both stay quiet for about two seconds, after that, Mikey says...

"Lucy, there's a traitor among us."

Lucy is left shocked for a few seconds, not because this isn't a confession, but because of what Mikey just uttered.

"Huh? I don't think I grasped what you just said." Lucy says.

Mikey looks around to make sure no one is listening and says. "There's a traitor among us Lucy."

"No, I mean, I understood you the first time, but what do you mean? This is a joke right?" She asks and laughs.

"No, let me elaborate. There's a slight chance that I might be wrong about it, but I don't think so..." Mikey answers.

Lucy stops laughing and her face turns pale. "Is he really serious?" She asks herself.

"So, the reason why I think that there is a traitor among us is simple. Do you remember what Ragnar said when I mentioned going to the temple first?"

Mikey asks Lucy.

Lucy thinks about it and then says.

"That he, doesn't sense danger coming from the temple, right?"

"Exactly, how is that possible when the ghost king was literally there?" Mikey asks Lucy.

"Well, you said that he put you in a domain right, doesn't it have to do something with the domain?" Lucy asks back.

"At first, I thought that was the case too. But, after I defeated the ghost king, he let me ask him questions. One of the things I asked was to tell me everything he knows about domains."

(One hour ago)

"So, you want to hear about the domains, is that right?" The ghost asks.

"Yeah, tell me everything about them." Mikey responds.

"So, to begin with, every single domain is unique and original, when a person finally receives his domain, the domain will transform in such a way that it will perfectly fit its user. There are multiple ways to get a domain. I, for example, got it by creating this entire temple and gathering those artifacts and such. You on the other hand, could recieve your domain by fighting a strong foe and defeating him." The ghost says.

"So, what exactly is a domain? Is it an alternative universe? A ripple in the space? What is it?" Mikey asks.

"Well, to be completely honest I don't know myself, but the best way I could describe these domains is..." The ghost thinks for a moment and then continues.

"Well, it's essentially like a pocket dimension which you can use at any moment as long as certain conditions are met. Every domain is different, so every domain has a different condition for the activation too."

"So, your domain is always within you and you can ALWAYS use it as long as certain conditions are met right?" Mikey asks.

"Yes, it's like a normal skill, like the ghostkiller coating for example." The ghost king replies.

"I felt uneasy when I was exploring those underground catacombs, is it because I was already within the range of your domain?" Mikey asks.

"I don't think so, unless you have a tracking ability or good instincts, you won't be able to sense it even if you're near it." The ghost says.

"Wait, so if someone has a good tracking ability, they can sense someone's Domain?" Mikey asks the ghost.

"Yeah, the domain is something dangerous to anyone who isn't its user, this means that if you have for example an ability which can warn you about incoming danger or something like that, the abiliy will definitely sense the domain."

(Back to present)

"Those were his exact words." Mikey says to Lucy. "I think you know where I am going with this." He adds.

"But still." Lucy crosses her arms. "You really think Ragnar would do something like that?" She asks.

"I really hope that he wouldn't. And I am suspecting Zoro even less." Mikey answers.

"I actually have another suspicion..." Mikey says.

"What suspicion?" Lucy asks.

"The posibility of there being a sixth human among us." Mikey replies

Lucy looks at Mikey with a confused expression.

"What do you mean by that? There's literally just five of us, how could there be a sixth person." Lucy says, before Mikey can say anything Lucy comes to a realization. "WAIT! You think someone with an invisibility ability is among us?" Lucy asks Mikey.

"Exactly, not only that, this person has an ability which can block someone's elses attribute aswell." Mikey says.

"That would explain why Ragnar didn't sense the danger in the temple, if that person had used the ability at the exact moment when Ragnar looked at the temple, then it would make sense." Lucy says and Mikey nods.

"But still, isn't that a little bit too specific? Do you really think that there is a chance of that being the case?" Lucy asks, doubting the chance of someone with such abilities existing.

"I was wondering." Mikey interrupts Lucy. "Did you see Christina's attribute in action yet?" Mikey asks.

"Yeah, I've seen both." Lucy says.

"In that case it defnitely can't be her..." Mikey says. He then looks at Lucy. "There has got to be someone who blocked Ragnar's attribute. It can't be you nor me, that's for sure. Which would only leave Zoro and the chance of there being a sixth person." Mikey says.

"That's true, we still know only about one of Zoro's attributes." Lucy says.

"Did you notice him using any new skills while you fought alongside him in the castle?" Mikey asks.

"I did, but they were all abilities which had to do with explosions, so it didn't really reveal his second attribute." Lucy responds.

"I hate to say it, but Ragnar is a suspect too, even though I myself said that there's no way he would actually do something like that." Lucy says.

"I actually believe that there really is a 6th player with us." Mikey responds.

"But doesn't invisibility AND an ability that interrupts someone's attribute seem too much?" Lucy asks.

"Not really, that person is probably high ranked, that's all there is to it." Mikey replies. "Did you notice by the way?" He asks Lucy.

"Notice what?" Lucy asks back.

"That we've met only people with an extremely high rank so far." Mikey says. "I actually have a theory for why is this happening, but I could be wrong so I am not going to say anything yet."

"A theory?" Lucy asks.

"Yeah, but that doesn't matter right now. What matters is that we need to somehow track this person." Mikey says.
