Chapter 465: 465
Chapter 465 Seth
The lady in shades opened her eyes, finding herself on a chair with her hands strapped to the back in an old abandoned workshop . The person who tied her on the chair had to be an expert . No matter how hard she tried to break free, all her attempts were to no avail . Her fingers could not reach her pockets, as well . “Are you looking for these?” asked Fan Meinan while holding a bag of Plasticine .
“It’s you???” snorted the lady in shades coldly . “You seem to have gotten braver after I haven’t seen you for a few months . How dare you pretend to be a Horsemen of the Apocalypse? Aren’t you afraid that Pestilence will come looking for you?”
“Hmm… I don’t think he has the time to retaliate against me,” said Fan Meinan, letting out a long sigh . “Let’s talk about our problems . You know I harbor no bad intentions against you . Why can’t you sit down and have a good talk? I just want to ask you a few questions . ”
“What then? Are you going to hand me over to the three major guilds?”
“Of course not . As long as you answer my questions, I will let you go . ”
“What if I don’t cooperate?” The lady in shades raised her eyebrows, her tone filled with angst and aggression .
“I’m doing this for your own good…” Fan Meinan smiled bitterly . “If you don’t want to cooperate with me, the person behind me will come and interrogate you personally . Trust me . You wouldn’t want to see him in person . ”
“When you mentioned that it’s for my own good, you meant bringing in more people to catch me?”
“You have also made me your scapegoat several times . So, if you really want to talk about this, you still owe me more at the end of the day,” said Fan Meinan .
“Don’t forget who introduced you to Loki; without me, you will still be…”

Fan Meinan interrupted the lady in shades . “Okay, let’s not dwell on the topic anymore, okay?”
A strange expression appeared on the face of the lady in shades . “You don’t want your companion to know your past identity, huh? Didn’t you tell your partner about your past? Hehe! How pathetic…’
“And that’s the end of our chat . Let us focus on what we are supposed to be doing now,” said Fan Meinan . “You took the Dreamland of Death from the three major guilds, so you must also know how to lift the curse . ”
“Should I have known?”
Fan Meinan walked to the lady in shades and looked her into her eyes . “I know you and the three major guilds are conflicted, and I don’t know what plans you have in mind, but I have never interfered with your endeavors . This time, the victim is an ordinary person, and it has nothing to do with those three guilds . Tell me the way to lift the curse . I swear I’ll only use it to save people, and I’ll not tell anybody about it . ”
The girl in shades lifted her head, looked at Fan Meinan, and said softly, “No… you know nothing, sister . ”
“So, this is personal?” Fan Meinan was starting to get a little annoyed too . “Is it because you were taken away as a kid, and now, you hold a grudge? Are you angry because of this?” .
“Is that what you think of me?” The lady in shades shook her head . “You keep complaining that I don’t trust you, but the irony is that you’ve never trusted me either . When we first met, I told you that I willingly left the house . I blame no one for it . Otherwise, I wouldn’t have recommended you to Loki . However, you, on the other hand, have never stopped wondering if I held a grudge or not . The exciting thing is, I can no longer remember the faces of those two people…

“…after you asked me if I knew a way to lift the curse, I told you that I don’t know anything, but yet, you didn’t believe me . You assumed that I’m wasn’t talking because I have a beef with the three major guilds, which was why I played along and said that I had a way to lift the curse . I could have asked you to do me a favor as well, but I didn’t expect that group to be so unhelpful . You went after me nonstop, and you almost ruined my plan . Now, you’ve come up with a plan to capture… Damn it! Now, tell me, who’s the one being bullied here?”
“Impossible, the Dreamland of Death was in your possession for so long . Are you trying to tell me that you didn’t open it?…” Fan Meinan frowned .
“As I said, it was all business for me . I’m not the one who wanted the Dreamland of Death . I am just the middleman . ”
“Who actually took away the Dreamland of Death, then?” Fan Meinan asked .
“You’ve asked me before, and my answer remains the same . It’s better that you know nothing about it . ”
“You’re still reluctant to talk at a time like this?”
“I’m doing it for your own good . That guy is not someone that you want to mess with . You pretended to be Pestilence, and yes, there is a chance that he will let you off the hook since it’s nothing serious . However, if you mess with the person I just talked about, he will definitely make you pay for it . ”
“Tell me who took the Dreamland of Death!” repeated Fan Meinan, looking serious this time . “Tell me his name, and don’t take any chances . You know you will have to say it sooner or later . ”
The lady in shades simply shrugged and blurted the name out . “Well, okay . As you wish . His name is Seth . ”
“Who is that?”
“In Ancient Egyptian mythology, the child of the twin gods Gabor and Nuit were said to have brutally torn open their mother’s womb before they were due . Seth was born that way . In the early days, he was known as the God of Strength and was worshipped by many people . His status in Egypt was unquestionable, but with Osiris gaining Egypt’s kingship, Seth’s status was challenged . In the end, Seth became jealous of Osiris, and he killed him . After that, Osiris’ child, Horus, sought Seth in a duel to avenge his father . During the battle, Seth had Horus’ eyes gouged out, but Horus also tore off Seth’s leg and testicles . Finally, the gods exiled Seth to the desert… “…after that, he lived with the Sun God for a while . During that time, he managed to kill Apache, the giant snake . He was known by the people of that time as the protector of the sun . However, as Horus became the country’s main god, Seth became the rebels’ representative at the same time . In the end, he fell into darkness and turned into the God of Chaos . He acquired the Dreamland of Death through me and made a dozen copies of it to spread the chaos . ” “Where can we find Seth?” “How would I know? He is the God of Chaos . How could he be at a fixed place?” the lady in shades continued . “To be honest, I don’t want to deal with that guy anymore . If only he gave me a Dreamland of Death copy as promised, I wouldn’t even need to look for Pestilence . Speaking of which, why do you have Pestilence’s cellphone? I already figured out the trick on the bridge, but how did you answer my call to Pestilence?” .
Fan Meinan shook her head and ignored the lady in shades . Instead, she spoke into her communicator . “It’s not ringing . Did you hear me?”
