At the Kill's maze.
"Kill, are you here? Can you guide me into your room please, I need to discuss something," the woman who entered the maze before James and Ryder escaped said.
She waited at the entrance then in just some time, a man wearing a brown robe appeared.
"Puppeteer! What brings you here?" asked the man.
"Where is Anonymous? Is he here? I also need to tell him something, Kill, " she said.
"He is not here, but what is it that you want to discuss with me?" Kill proceeded to walk and Puppeteer followed.
"I'll tell you when you get to your room."
She followed Kill while also feeling the walls in every turn they take. They reached an intersection and Puppeteer was put to a stop when she felt unfamiliar marks, the two X marks in both directions.
"This is new?"
"What is?" Kill asked.
Puppeteer took Kill's hand and made him feel the marks on the walls. "This one, shouldn't there be only one X?"
Kill snapped his fingers then a new wall rose which blocked the other direction that caused the other X mark to disappear. "Don't think of it too much, let's go to my room now."
At Kill's room.
"What is it that you want to tell me and Anonymous?" asked Kill.
"Tomorrow, I will harvest my last crops. I will be needing your help."
"Oh, so the feast would be tomorrow then? But--"
"Yes," Puppeteer intervened, "But I went to the Seer's room to give him his mask and invitation, he is not there. That is why I was asking you if Anonymous is here."
Kill nodded his head. "Maybe he is with Anonymous then. Anyway, I have a mission outside today, I'll just go to your room later to discuss your plans for tomorrow. You can leave now."
The two went back to the maze and found their way out, but deep inside the maze where the book is hidden, another person remained.
"This was closed when I left it. Hmmm, Ryder is closer to his goal, huh?!" asked the person who is wearing a brown robe and a bull mask, Anonymous.
***
The next day, at Puppeteer's room.
"We are gathered here today to prepare for the feast this evening. And as a tradition of our group, we'll be reaping souls all together for the final sinner. But there's two so I needed the help of you. The Seer, Anonymous, and Techno, can I task you to reap her soul?" she pointed at the menu at her table. "The eye of the envy shall be served, Vian Baging is your mission, you must leave her letter at her locker then it would be her choice to believe or get electrocuted."
Puppeteer then took another menu at the table then showed it to everyone. "She is the main dish. The heart of the angry, Jade de Verde, I will trust the remaining three to help me reap her soul."
The six looked at her before nodding.
"But what have the two done? I'm curious," the Seer asked.
Puppeteer laughed. "Well, Vian betrayed her friends and continues to betray others because she is never a true friend, but rather a snake that would bite others just to get what she wants. While Jade? Her hatred towards humanity makes her vicious, she manipulates other people, hurting them, or causing them trouble. Both of them are rotten souls!"
