[ Trinia Country, District H Holy Temple ]

" Gyaaakhhh!!! " a Holy Priestess screams, making the others who served in that temple to come to her and witness the thing she sees.

" No, it can't be! " the Holy Priestesses scream as they all see the Grand Holy Priestess' body, sprouting blood, and her neck hung by a rope.

...

[ Name: Grand Holy Priestess, Belinda Briar ]

[ Country: British ]

[ Gift Ability: Violent Volt, Healing Hand ]

[ Gift Tier: Tier 4, Tier 5. ]

[ Gifter: Aphrodite, Hera ]

[ Affiliation: Olympus ]

...

In her body, six stab wounds can be seen, as the blood flows out from there.

" What is going on!? " Battle Maiden asks as she then senses that her feet step on a liquid.

"( Water, no..., this smell! )" She realized that what she steps is blood, flowing out from the Grand Holy Priestess' body.

" Put her down! " the Maiden quickly says for she then asks the other Holy Priestesses to put that Grand Holy Priestess down from her hanged state.

Minutes later, after the police and the inquisitors are called into their place.

" You gotta be kidding me, the Grand Holy Priestess is dead. " said an Inquisitor who just arrived with her friend, an Inquisitor that we know, she was still alive at that time.

...

[ Name: Inquisitor Park Kara ]

[ Country: Trinia]

[ Gift Ability: Eyes of Desire ]

[ Gift Tier: Tier 4 ]

[ Gifter: Aphrodite ]

[ Affiliation: Olympus ]

...

" Yes Kara, the victim was her... " said the other Inquisitor who happens to help her at the time, they began so to be so close afterward.

...

[ Name: Inquisitor Vincent Wong ]

[ Country: Trinia]

[ Gift Ability: Muruga's Hand ]

[ Gift Tier: Tier 3 ]

[ Gifter: Muruga ]

[ Affiliation: Svarga ]

...

" That Chimera Gifted Priestess, I hear she's on her duty here to come to Trinia to perform that ritual on 31st October. "

" But if it comes to this, then I don't know what would the higher-ups say to the Briar Family back in Britain. " Vincent tells.

" They must be in desperate times if they had to explain it to them. "

" Especially since Priestess Belinda is the Briar Family's greatest Gifted Human, to have two powerful Gift powers in one body. "

" But still, if what the police said was true, then- "

" Quit talking Kara and come, let's go to the scene. " Vincent tells her as both of them then enter the chamber where the Priestess was found dead.

" Hmm... " Vincent sees the rope that hangs the priestess, he then decides to pick a chair and climb it, using it to see the rope closer.

" Hey Vincent, don't get too close! " Kara tells him, telling Vincent that he might get into an accident.

" Accident, nah! "

" I'm good, it's just a normal rope though... " Vincent tells Kara as he then hops down the chair while his eyes are closed.

" I'm going to communicate to Lord Muruga Kara, I think he could help me at the moment, be on guard. " Vincent goes to Corner for a while, trying to communicate with his god.

While Vincent is communicating, Inquisitor Kara is looking at the scene, still confused about how could a Chimera Gifted person like Priestess Belinda, who had two powerful Tier Gift Cores, could be killed in one night.

" The killer must've used something to kill her before she could use her Gift Powers, for I didn't see any signs of her using her own Gift Powers based on what I see from her corpse at first glance. " Kara hypothesize, already wearing her gloves and mask as she proceeds to see the Priestess' body, trying to find any clue of her activating her Gifts before getting killed.

" No signs of her Gift Powers being activated at all. "

" Well, she did have Elemental Gift from Lord Aphrodite, but I think she didn't have the time to use it at the moment too. " Kara checks her hand, for the hand usually conjures or controls the Elemental Gift Powers each human had.

She sees it, seeing no evidence that the Grand Priestess is using her Gift 'Violent Volt' at all.

" Seeing this, she must've been killed while she was not on guard. " the Inquisitor deducts as she checks the place around where the dead priestess's body was found.

" But this confuses me, even if she gets stabbed then her other Gift 'Healing Hand' could immediately heal the wounds so quickly as the god Hera's Healing Power is able to even restore broken body parts. "

" In fact, wasn't her ability now able to heal and restore her body by simply moving his fingers? " Kara asks herself but then.

" The Grand Priestess' healing ability is strong, it is almost around the gods' regenerative abilities. " Battle Maiden says as she comes behind the Inquisitor.

" Wait, are you!? "

" Yes, it's me, the Battle Maiden. "

" Nice to meet you, Inquisitor. " she greets Kara at that time, telling that she will help the Inquisitors deal with this case while helping the High Inquisitors deal with the Briar Family.

" I will assist you both, in the meantime. "

" I will hereby ask you and your partner to be thoroughly active in investigating this case, for this is already a Holy Priestesses matter. " the Battle Maiden tells Inquisitor Kara as Inquisitor Vincent then approached them both.

" Lord Muruga also tells me the same," he says to them both, telling that Lord Muruga also agreed to let the 'Battle Maiden' help them in this case.

" He also hopes that our combined forces will quickly end this matter, for he too was surprised that this happened. " Vincent tells.

" Any thoughts on who might've done this, Maiden? " Inquisitor Vincent asks the Maiden while she holds her chin, dwelling in her thoughts.

" I don't know, but... " the Maiden says as she summons the Divine Zodiac Item [Judgment Libra] behind her.

[Zodiac Item Manifestation, Judgment Libra]

The two Inquisitors are both surprised to see it, the Divine Item that judges things fairly using its Divine Power.

" Oh my, it's the scales of divine judgment itself. " Inquisitor Vincent says as he sees it and when it was manifested, it begins to process its judgment.

" Let your Judgment be done, Libra... " Battle Maiden says to it.

" Now please, help us find who did this to the Grand Priestess," she tells the Divine Scales as it performs its judgment.

( At the same time, different place. )

" You did well, for a hired mercenary. " said a person who comes out from the dark, talking to a 'mercenary' who just killed another Priestess.

" Are you sure it's her? " the merc asks the person about it.

" The Grand Priestess that represents Asgard, she who will be appointed as a Divine Avatar by the Allfather, Loki. "

" I must say they're too many these times, there's none other time where you could see a lot of Divine Priestesses appointed by the gods. "

" Afraid of them, are you? "

" Afraid that these girls would acquire Divine Powers on October 31st. " the merc asks as he then uses his Ability to destroy the Grand Priestess' Core he holds in his hands.

" Such dark power. " the person says to the Merc.

" To think your power is that of a 'Gift Core', merc- "

" Bounty Hunter! " said the merc, he told the person that he wants to be called a 'Bounty Hunter'.

" I liked the term, Bounty Hunter, I only hunt if my target holds a great price. "

" For that is my life now, I will never again be paid in smaller paycheck like in the Hunter Association, even after winning the 'God Hunter Tournament' Five Times. "

" Remember that, Hollow Witch. " the 'Bounty Hunter' says to the person, the 'Hollow Witch Sect' Leader.

" Fine then, if that's what you wanted to be called... "

" 'Bounty Hunter' Andrew Kent. " the Hollow Witch says to the Bounty Hunter.

" Hey, get over with the 'Kent' name, I didn't use it anymore. "

" Just call me Andrew 'K'., alright! " he tells the Hollow Witch as she leaves, grunting.

" There she goes, that woman. " Andrew says as he smirks.

" Dammit, I had to leave this woman dirty like this, huh? " Andrew asks while looking at the dead priestess he killed.

" If this continues, then those people will pinpoint my identity then. "

" Sadly, my contract instructs me to keep the corpses in the place in order to give the gods' followers a message. "

" But still, even if the contract says so," he says as he cleans anything that could be traced back to him.

" I can still outsmart it," he says while smirking.
