They all call me Great Master-Chapter 376 - 373: Hidden Killing Intent!
Arthur raised his hand and pointed at the decaying body on the ground, then pointed at himself, Marinda, and the Female Swordmaster.
The young ’Spirit Medium’ could clearly feel that when his finger pointed at the two, Marinda’s figure flashed with an illusory sense like smoke, and the Female Swordmaster’s whole body tensed up.
It was obvious that the Kledos Family’s secret technique ’Silent Whisper’ had begun to take root in their hearts.
Arthur expressed his own innocence in response.
Immediately, Marinda and the Female Swordmaster returned to normal.
Neither of them felt embarrassed.
Moreover, they didn’t linger on this topic and looked directly at the decayed body on the ground—
"With Arthur at No. 2 Cork Street, and Julie and me here, it’s not just a Mystic Side Person of Great Arcana Level who would meet such a fate, even an ’Entrant’ would end up the same, even if they possessed special powers, the gap in power levels would not change because of it.
Great Arcana Level is Great Arcana Level!"
Marinda said.
"Does this mean someone wants to divert our attention using him?"
The Female Swordmaster immediately grasped the key point.
"No!
Not us!
It’s you, Julie!" Stay updated through novelbuddy
Marinda emphasized.
Immediately, the Female Swordmaster’s complexion changed.
Then, she took out a communication crystal from her waist pouch and began to contact quickly—from the Mount Gale Region to Spring Water Town, Grass Branch Town, Bass Town, Barny, then to South Town, Bern Manor, Oakwood Manor, followed by Bol Lake, Mandela, Kemir Manor, Harold Manor.
Among them, Bol Lake and Mandela were respectively the territories of Baron Korol and Baron Hausman.
And these places nearly included all the territories of the vassals of the Countess of South Los.
After receiving the replies from the Female Swordmaster, all the nobles responded except for South Town and Kemir Manor.
Kemir Manor, due to Baron Kemir’s death and the absence of heirs, the entire family had been confirmed extinct, and the manor was naturally ’sealed’ by the Countess. It would only be reopened when Marinda inherited the title, so the lack of response was normal.
But South Town was not normal.
Moreover, South Town was especially important because of its iron and coal mines.
Without any hesitation, the Female Swordmaster immediately took out another Messenger Stone—
"Madam Susan, may I speak?
This is Julie!
There’s been a problem in South Town, and I need to dispatch a hundred-man cavalry unit from the Lord Count to investigate."
The Swordsmanship Chief asked with a respectful tone.
"All right.
They will depart immediately!"
An aged female voice came from the communication crystal.
Arthur listened to this aged female voice, showing just the right amount of surprise.
He had not heard of this Madam Susan before.
"To focus entirely on ’Ascend Step’, the Lord Count has delegated all miscellaneous tasks to Madam Susan—Madam Susan is the steward of the South Los House, having served since the Old Earl, a very capable and kind old lady.
And I, the Guard Commander, the Head Hunter, and Granny Cullen are responsible for assisting this old lady.
Granny Cullen is in charge of the house’s kitchen, with exquisite culinary skills."
The Female Swordmaster explained to Arthur.
As Arthur increasingly showed his value and position, the Female Swordmaster did not mind him knowing more about these matters.
"I see," Arthur said, feigning realization.
Internally, he thought,
’So, the ’Mother Tigress’ has begun to ’Ascend Step,’ huh?
What pressure indeed!’
Arthur, secretly letting out such a sigh of relief, didn’t wait for the Female Swordmaster to ask and took the initiative to say—
"I have a thirty percent share in South Town’s iron and coal mine profits!
I need to go and see for myself!"
Arthur stated.
Marinda, on the other hand, narrowed her eyes in thought.
South Town!
Four hours ago, Marinda had welcomed the visit of Lord Lisop from South Town in her capacity as the hostess of No. 2 Cork Street.
She had also risen to see him off.
Then, Arthur left.
Then, South Town had an accident.
’How could it be such a coincidence?
It must be related to this guy!’
Looking at Arthur, who volunteered to step forward, Marinda was certain in her heart, yet her face did not show a tiny bit of her thoughts. She just smiled faintly at Arthur and said—
"As your lover and partner, I’m quite curious about South Town as well."
After that, Marinda waved her hand.
In the thick smoke, a carriage guarded by the Undead appeared outside No. 2 Cork Street.

Faced with the clear stance Arthur and Marinda were taking, the Female Swordmaster couldn’t help but smile.
"Thank you both!"
While saying this, the Female Swordmaster stepped forward, heading towards the carriage outside the courtyard.
She knew all about Marinda’s ’vehicle’.
Not only was it extremely fast, but it could also fly low to the ground.
With this carriage, they would certainly reach South Town in the shortest possible time.
But the next moment, the Female Swordmaster was stunned.
Because Arthur and Marinda were looking at her with a strange gaze.
Subconsciously, the Female Swordmaster looked down at her clothes.
’I’ve controlled it very well; I didn’t have a wardrobe malfunction, did I?’
Then, she touched her face.
’There is no food on my face either, right?’
Looking at the puzzled expression of the Female Swordmaster, Arthur spoke softly—
"It’s too conspicuous!"
Suddenly, the Female Swordmaster understood.
The other party had already dispatched a Mystic Side Person at the limit of ’Great Arcana Level’ to divert attention. Naturally, there would be more preparations.
Marinda’s ’vehicle’ was, of course, part of it.
It would probably receive special attention as soon as it appeared near South Town.
"So, precisely because it’s conspicuous, we can use it as a different kind of trap to attract those lurking Peeping Toms.
And then, we can capture them all in one fell swoop!"
Marinda explained from the side, while opening the door of her ’vehicle’.
Because—
Arthur had already begun to move Explosives out of No. 2 Cork Street.
The whole process didn’t involve any verbal communication.
Even, there was no exchange of looks.
Watching the two, one moving Explosives and the other loading them, the Female Swordmaster felt somewhat redundant.
Then, the Female Swordmaster suddenly came to her senses.
Just now, what Arthur said was ’three-tenths of the income from the South Town Iron and Coal Mine’!
Wasn’t it one-tenth?
How had it become three-tenths?
"It was a deal with Lord Lisop.
He asked me for some help.
Maybe…
the lord had a premonition and that’s why he made the deal with me."
Arthur sighed, his expression grew somber.
[Bluff]was shimmering at this moment.
Frequent unexpected events?
It doesn’t matter.
He, Arthur, as a ’Spirit Medium’, excels at improvisation.
He would make everything seem reasonable.
"So that’s what it was!"
The Female Swordmaster said, continuing to feign sudden understanding on her face.
But Arthur saw a hint of unnaturalness in her expression.
Immediately, Arthur’s heart tightened—
He guessed a possibility.
