A week has passed after that event.

In Ehrenar City, there is no such thing like a massacre or mass-killing anymore. And so, People back at their respective business and live their once normal life. Therefore, Ehrenar city becomes peaceful once again.

But in this very city, Yoro and Chad are still seen walking around the slum sector with a black cloak. It seems they wanted to find something around, or precisely, someone...

Yoro: "Chad, it seems that's in here," pointing at the ground in front of them, Yoro divert his eyes at Chad who is standing beside him.

Chad: "So with this, already 26 in total, right?" Pulling out a parchment, he marks one spot at this paper, again.

Yep, that's right, with the one Chad made just now, it is making it a 26 mark spot in the paper on his hand, which is actually a map of the slum of Ehrenar City.

Cecilia: "yep, that is a square 26 additional dead bodies after that slaughter event" with a cheerful voice, Cecilia chimes out from behind them.

Chad: "Haa...like I said before, what the hell are you doing in here?" Chad exhaling breath thick of desperation at this little maid girl.

That's right, currently, Cecilia is also following them here as an additional person except both of them. After Yoro goes out to town with Chad for seven days consecutively, Cecilia insisted she also wants to come together with them, which is leading to the situation right now.

Cecilia: "I already said this to you, Chad. In fact, there is someone suspicious followed me around these days! I am just coming with you guys so I can actually get away from that person!" clenching her fist in front of her chest, she instead making her word doing the opposite effect of what she wanted.

Chad: "your reasoning is very bad there, you know? Sigh... I am sure you just want to spend your time with this young master of yours, aren't you?" Chad stares at her with his eyes half-closed, clearly doesn't buy what just she said.

Cecilia: "Hmph, even if that's right, what'll you do to me then?" as she said this, she smirks at Chad with a playful smile adorn her cute face.

And for some times, her eyes will steal a peeks at Yoro's, trying to make out what is his expression right now. Her cheeks are letting out a tinge of pink at what she just said unintentionally. But what a shame, the only thing she can see from him is just his back, right now.

As he stands in front of the bloodstain below, Yoro gesturing Chad to gives him the map, which Chad voluntarily does. And as Yoro examines the map, his brows furrowed deeply when he sees all of the marks there.

Yoro: "hmm..., this is odd..." furrowed his brow, Yoro is looking at the map more closely, but only to results in a deeper frown to be made in his face.

Cecilia: "what is it?" Having her interest piqued, Cecilia also takes a glance at the map in Yoro's hand from behind his shoulder.

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

Yoro: "look at this" pointing at the area that is marked with the red tint, he explaining: "the range of this chain-killing act is too vast. Just now, I am saying this is odd, is because it is certain that the chance of that person comes out unseen is almost impossible"

Gritting his teeth, he proceeds at his explaining: "after that incident, this city security is more packed with guards. Therefore, to do it in a place like this, without anyone ever coincidentally seen or noticing that person is no way possible" as he said this, a thick frustration can be heard from his words.

That's right, they were still searching for the culprit of slaughtering event at that time. But why they would do that? The answer is because this person wasn't even stopping after that massacre. That very person is continuing to kills people in the city again and again.

For Yoro, as long as there is a trail left, then he still has a chance to find this person. For what'll he do with this guy? It's a matter for later.

Initially, Yoro is just wanted to check the condition of the other gang in the slum with Chad here, for he knows the layout of this place better than himself. But coincidentally or not, they've heard someone gossiping about another killing spree has happened on the way.

If it's just a normal killing, Yoro would just disregard it as another shady act in the slum. But believe it or not, the way they've died is the same as all victims in the massacre!

Which is make him assumed they've died by the same person!

Yoro: "it's like this person use a trick.....hit and run? But where the hell you can get out of this city without passing the gate?" To enter Ehrenar City by the normal means, you must pass the gate which is of course guarded heavily by trained people.

But even if you disguised as goods in the merchant carriage, you can't just keep doing it again and again for seven days successively. There is a big chance you would be discovered if you do that.

Chad: "a way to get out of the city? I actually know one in here" but as Yoro thinks other means that can be possible out there, Chad suddenly said this to them.

Yoro: "there is seriously an illegal way to enter in? How the hell the guards didn't fix that as soon as possible then?" With a confused voice, he gives the map back to Chad here.

Chad: "Well, just follow me there. And I'll show you what did I mean later" And thus, Chad leads them to the place he talked about.

==============================

In some corner of the slum, there is a building which didn't look conspicuous at all. If you passed this very building, there is a big chance you will miss this one when you're walked by.

Right now, standing in front of it is Yoro's group.

Chad: "the hell....?" But as soon as they got in that place, Chad couldn't help but raise remarks at what he sees right now.

Cecilia: "mmm, well, it seems that this thing is.....closed?" Cecilia said with a voice like she wasn't sure herself.

Yoro: "sigh...more like an abandoned place for me," Yoro said indifferently. And as always, Yoro is a person that very keen on judging the building from its exterior instead of the interior.

Right now, they were in front of a building that looks like some kind of store, or maybe a bar. But either way, this building is in a condition where it won't attract any customer, at least no more.

Chad: "but it's still opened the last time I passed here" and as Chad said that, he approaches the planked door and peeks inside from the dust-filled window.

Knock knock knock*

Chad: "is anyone there!?...." He shout at any person living inside, with his voice is trailed off in the end. But as he peeks inside them, what he seen from that is only a darkness, and darkness, and darkness.

After waiting for a while, there is no one inside who respond to his question. "Well, already figures" he said annoyedly to no one in particular.

Cecilia: "So what now?" Even if she is said that, she is actually doesn't mind to stand here all day, that is as long as Yoro is there to accompany her.

Yoro: "there is nothing to do in here anymore. Let's just we go home for now" says Yoro as a finale.

Chad: "Yeah, its the sky is started turns dark" Chad agrees with him.

Cecilia didn't voice any objection either.

And so, they three turn their body around and heads back to the Ehren mansion
