Upon hearing Shen Qiu's voice, a man dressed in a black tuxedo emerged from the shadows. His pale body and blood-red eyes confirmed his identity as a Dead Apostle.

"Why did you arrive before I even had a chance to set off?"

The Dead Apostle was now showing signs of fear... This was really quite illogical; he had originally planned to wait until late at night, when both of them were fast asleep, before making his move.

"If you absolutely must get this answer before you die—"

The boy expressionlessly withdrew the three-tomoe Sharingan from his eyes, revealing once again his beautiful eyes with brilliant gold pupils to the Dead Apostle.

"It's simple, because I have futuristic vision."

Shen Qiu's tone was casual and understated, yet it stirred up a storm in the hearts of the Dead Apostles. A person, simultaneously possessing two kinds of demonic eyes...

What kind of concept is this?

"Alright, I've answered all your questions before you die. I hope you can die without regrets."

"What a joke! He's just an ordinary magician, nowhere near as good as us Dead Apostles..."

Before the man in the tuxedo could finish speaking, a deep red bloodstain appeared on his neck, growing darker and darker until his entire head... drooped down.

This is what happens in a fraction of a second.

After easily killing the vengeful spirit in front of him, Shen Qiu looked into the depths of the dark carriage and slowly spoke.

"We can end the probing here; I'm very busy."

"If there's a next time, I won't hesitate to take the initiative. You may think the Mystic Eye Collection Train is very powerful, but..."

After saying that, Shen Qiu suddenly unleashed all the magic power in his body, smashing all the seats and platforms in the train carriage to pieces.

"You are nothing but a bunch of frogs in a well."

After shaking the blood off Yueyin, Shen Qiu gave one last cold glance into the depths of the carriage before returning to his room.

Silent all night.

Boarding the Magic Eye Train, the next day, early morning.

At 6:30 in the morning, Shen Qiu got up from the guest room half naked. He looked at Anna, who was still sleeping beside him, and touched her head. Just as he was about to get up and wash up, he was pulled back to reality by a shrill scream.

"It really happened... The clairvoyant didn't activate again last night."

Upon hearing Olga Marie's familiar voice, the boy rubbed his temples and sighed deeply. He realized that his control over his clairvoyance was far inferior to that of the Wise King and Merlin, let alone the Magic King Solomon.

From a candidate for the championship to a champion, I still have a long way to go.

Following the sound, Shen Qiu arrived at Olga Marie's guest room.

"Teresa, Teresa, hey, you're lying to me, aren't you? Why are you lying here? Why? Wake up! Get up and scold me like you usually do! Why...?"

The first thing that caught Shen Qiu's eye was the bloodstains all over the room and a headless female corpse. The corpse belonged to Teresa, a beautiful blonde woman who had shielded her master from the illusion yesterday.

“Miss Olga Marie..…”

"The corpse's head is missing..."

At this moment, the crowd that had heard the noise also came over: Correspondent, Greta, El-Melloi II, Yvette, Father Caleb of the Church of Christ, as well as Shen Qiu and Anna.

"Go and inform the flight attendants quickly."

Seeing this, El-Melloi II sighed deeply, never expecting that even boarding this train would bring endless turmoil.

“There’s no need for that. The Magic Eye Collection Train will not interfere in the battles between magicians.” Auctioneer Leondra and Train Conductor Rodin also arrived at the scene of the murder at the same time.

"It's you, it must be you, Matou Aki! You've been giving us the cold shoulder since last night, you must have cursed Theresa or something..."

However, before she could finish speaking, a petite girl in purple rushed past Shen Qiu and easily lifted Olga Marie up with one arm.

"If you want to die, you can keep talking, it's okay."

The girl's voice beneath the cloak was gentle, but the gentler it was, the more terrifying it seemed.

"you you....."

Olga Marie panicked immediately when Anna lifted her up with one arm. No matter how she tried to break free, she couldn't escape Anna's immense strength.

With C+ level monstrous strength, even a typical second-rate Servant would suffer losses in a head-on confrontation.

"Wow...so fast, Master! That girl is incredibly fast, just like yesterday and today. We can't even see her movements clearly..."

Looking at the scene before her, Grey whispered to El-Melloi II beside her.

"That girl... is definitely not an ordinary person."

Even so, he couldn't sense any magician's aura from Anna.

"Let her go. She's just someone who has just lost half a mother who raised her from childhood. It's understandable that she would react this way."

At the critical moment, unexpectedly, it was Father Caleb, a priest from the Holy Church, who came to the rescue.

After receiving a gentle nod from Shen Qiu, the petite girl in purple instantly returned to Shen Qiu's side with another Instant Step.

"If there are no problems, let me perform the autopsy."

Seeing that the atmosphere had calmed down, Father Caleb requested an autopsy.

"It's really rare for the Church of Christ to help the Magicians' Association," Yvette, dressed in pink Lolita fashion, couldn't help but remark sarcastically upon seeing this.

“No, to me she is just a little girl who has lost her beloved.” Father Caleb pulled out a bunch of bottles and jars and finished the autopsy a few minutes later.

"The murderer died within an hour, Miss Olga Marie. No traces of curse magic were found on the body, so please don't worry about it anymore."

"how come....."

Upon hearing this news, Olga Marie finally succumbed to the mental pressure and fainted. Fortunately, Anna quickly helped her up and tossed her to Corles.

"Go and settle her in properly."

'Huh? Okay.'

"You really have a knack for cases like this, Lord El-Melloi II." Now, Ryori Adashino has also arrived at the scene of the murder.

"The body was headless. The killer was probably after the futuristic vision eyes in her eyes, but he did it so cleanly and efficiently that he left no trace at all."

After examining the body again, El-Melloi II sighed. It was truly a case of "the tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease."

Without any clues, everyone had to return empty-handed.

dusk.

Freight train.

"It's almost time for the prisoner to give you the time, Grey."

Looking at the clusters of dark clouds in the sky, for some reason, El-Melloi II had a bad feeling, and this feeling quickly... came true!

A crimson bolt of lightning suddenly flashed out from the dark clouds and struck the top of the train.

"Ah, it's really here. Knowing it's a trap, they still jump in. How incredibly foolish."

After the crimson lightning disappeared, standing before El-Melloi II and Gray was a woman dressed in red and gold, her entire body enveloped in crimson lightning.

"So you're the thief who stole the sacred relic from Master, Ad!"

After witnessing this scene, Gray decisively released the first stage of Yad, transforming it into a gray scythe.

"Who...who are you?!"

The moment El-Melloi II saw the woman, a terrible suspicion arose in his mind—no, it wasn't a suspicion, but a basic judgment.

"Seeing your face is really unpleasant. You're stingy, narrow-minded, gloomy, and love to sleep in. I really don't know what kind of person you are qualified to be the Master of that Conqueror King."

"You always put on a sour face beforehand, but afterwards you're the one who causes the most trouble. You scum don't deserve the submission of Iskandar, the King of Conquerors. You're utterly ridiculous."

"No, it is not that I have submitted to him, but that I have become his subject, nothing more."

Ignoring the woman's mockery, El-Melloi II remained calm.

"What a joke! Do you know what kind of people Iskandar's subjects are? How could someone like you, the scum of the earth, possibly be worthy of being his subject!"

Unexpectedly, the woman became even more agitated after hearing Weber's explanation.

"Enough, enough! I'm so tired of seeing this, so incredibly tired! You two might as well die a miserable death right here!"

"Yad!"

The Mystic Code, now transformed into a scythe, materialized in Gray's hand, and the two charged straight at each other. However, the opponent's immense strength and speed forced Gray into a retreat within just two rounds.

"Honestly, he's just a piece of trash, a third-rate Sevent, yet he dares to spout such nonsense here."

Just as the situation reached a stalemate, Shen Qiu's familiar voice rang out again from the roof of the car.

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing Shen Qiu's words, the servant felt his entire body surging with rage.

"I'm telling you, you're clearly just a piece of trash, a third-rate Sevent, yet you act all high and mighty. It's absolutely ridiculous."

"Since you call me a piece of trash, a third-rate Sevent, then let me show you how this piece of trash, a third-rate Sevent, will tear you to pieces!"

Seeing Iskandar the Great's double and shadow rushing straight towards him, Shen Qiu remained expressionless, standing silently and motionless.

"Anna——"

"Let this creature at the bottom of the well see for itself the enormous difference between Sepents."

"Understood, Master."
