Since Luan returned he was quite quiet. He took a cold shower to calm himself. There was still something he had left to do and needed to be cool-headed by then.
After taking a shower and calming down, he went down the stairs.
"Luan."
"Big Brother."
"Son."
The four girls were waiting for him downstairs. Despite knowing that he didn't want to talk about it, they at least wanted to be there for support.
"I'm fine. I just saw some unpleasant things. And it's not over yet," Luan said with a sigh.
"What do you mean it isn't over, Luan?" Maira asked, afraid to hear that there were more cannibals out there.
"It's not because of what you're thinking, mom." Luan read her mind and said, "These people who were committing cannibalism were just guinea pigs, someone else's puppets. The real reason was never to commit cannibalism."
"If that's not it, then what is it, Luan?" Catharina asked, and added, "Yes, I thought it was strange for someone to be a cannibal in our district, but it's not impossible, is it?"
"Of course, nothing is impossible. But these people were originally poor and had a common restaurant. They were a family of cannibals that were discovered by someone who made a deal with them." Luan explained what he saw when reading the cannibals' minds. "They were moved to a wealthier district, where they would not raise suspicion of cannibalism, and even killed oxen, cows, etc. to disguise the smell of blood. Everything was planned by someone else, someone who used them, but as it was convenient, the cannibals let themselves be used. Or rather, they believed they were very lucky and enjoyed it for a few days until Ingrid discovered the smell of blood."
"Luan..." Ingrid bit her lip until it bled, "Did someone die because I didn't warn you before?"
"No, those who died were already dead for at least one day, and only one person was alive, and was saved," Luan said. He didn't explain much, as it was a revolting thing, especially that the targets of the cannibals were just children.
"So what is the real intention of who is behind this?" Maira asked.
"Vengeful souls." Luan had a serious look when he spoke. "The person behind this is collecting vengeful souls. He is almost certainly a soul cultivator, and he is using vengeful souls to strengthen himself. Most likely, these cannibals are not the only ones being used by that person or group of people who are behind all this."
"This is very evil. These people are bad!" Cristina shuddered.
"Yes, that's why I need to know who they are, and how many of them there are. If there is only one, it would be easier depending on his or her power, but if there are many, it could become a big headache," said Luan. He had no good experience with ghost controllers, since they were existences that could directly attack a person's soul, and that was something very dangerous.
However, thanks to his Origin, Luan was able to greatly strengthen his soul, and because of that, he had always managed to emerge victoriously. It would probably be the same now, but he was still weak since there was a possibility of an existence in the Second Order.
"I assume they left something at the house?" Maira came to this understanding with the little information that Luan had given.
"As expected, you found out fast," Luan said, "It's like mother said, they left something behind. This is something that collects the vindictive souls. I kind of already found the object that is being used, but I didn't touch it so as to not alert the owner."
"So you will wait for the owner to come back and then see if they are weak or not. If they are weak, will you attack them?" Ingrid asked.
"Yes, but I will go undercover," Luan said, "As I said, there may be more of them. It wouldn't be good if they found out it was me and attacked someone close to me because of that. So I need to be cautious. In any case, I already intended to create a mask. Now that I really need one, I will work on it immediately, as I will soon have to use it."
Getting up, Luan went to the workshop where there were the hammer and some forge items that he kept in a chest. Opening it, he took bones from the living dead who were over 30 times stronger than an ordinary man.
The mask he started to create was a white dragon mask, or rather, a white-boned dragon. It had a pair of horns on its head, and two sharp fangs facing down. The eye region was quite wide, so as not to impair Luan's vision. He also created some spells and formations where he would change the appearance of his face and hair color and also eye color.
The instant Luan got dressed in the mask, his hair color became black, and his eyes blue; his voice when speaking, sounded demonic, as if he were talking with a lot of fury and bloodlust.
It was still not enough. Luan also poured some of his blood, and also pricked a magic stone and mixed it with the mask, and through this process made the mask evolve, so to speak, and also increase the person's visual power and perception who wore the mask, as well as a small increase in the user's Qi. Despite being only a 1% increase in Qi, that would be different if Luan became a stronger existence.
After climbing the stairs and entering his room, Luan took a shower and came out dressed in bone armor, and the mask tied to the side of his face. He said goodbye to his family and said he would come back later. They wanted to go with him, but knowing the danger and seeing that he never asked them to go along with him, they understood that they would only get in the way if they went.
This was mainly because he didn't know how strong the enemy was.
Luan left his house in a hidden way, without anyone noticing and distanced himself, still invisible to people's perception. Now, he was already wearing the mask and his look changed.
When Luan arrived at the house of their cannibal neighbors, he stayed in a tree not far away. In the cannibals' house, there were still a lot of police.
They were investigating the cause of the cannibals' deaths and trying to find all kinds of information. Of course, they still didn't know that the two adult women and the man were cannibals. They would later pass tests, and then they would discover that inside them there were remains of people. Mostly they would investigate since there was a child who was being eaten at the moment when Luan entered the house.
Time passed, minute after minute, until the site was isolated by the military police to preserve the evidence. Homicide police chief and investigators arrived at the scene, talked to neighbors, and tried to contact the victims' relatives. Criminal experts also attended to analyze the evidence and gather information.
Time passed and the bodies were collected by the Medical-Legal Institute. Only the surviving child was taken to the hospital at the time he was found.
Even when it had become 3 am, the investigation continued.
It was at that moment, too, that Luan noticed something suspicious. Two people, a man and a woman were digging up something near the basement door. Luan looked at them well, and then saw what it was that they were searching for and thought, "Bingo!"
