During the terror incident in the market district, the deputy director of MI9 of the Loen Kingdom happened to be passing by!In parliament, there was fierce debate over the responsibility the *Church of Everlasting Sun* should bear for the assassination of Yves Artois. Negligence of this magnitude! The two major churches were discussing limiting parliamentary immunity, so that those who hadn't sworn an oath could no longer enjoy such privileges. Parliament, a breeding ground for evil god worshippers! Yves Artois had sheltered the followers of an evil god responsible for the terror incident in the market district.
Under the bright afternoon sun, Jenna's gaze swept over the front-page headlines of different newspapers, each taking a stand in the heated debates.
Finally, her eyes settled on the wanted posters pasted to the side of the newsstand.
"Guillaume Benet!"
"Poaides de Rochefort!"
"Lumian Lee!" "Celia Bello!"
Jenna stared at her own wanted poster, feeling that this whole situation was surreal!
The photo or portrait on the wanted poster bore no resemblance to her at all.
Except for their shared beauty, the facial details were almost the opposite. Even bounty hunters, and her own brother Julian, wouldn't recognize her based on this poster!
As a result, Jenna continued to live as usual. During the day, she studied acting at the Old Pigeon Coop; at night, she sang at the Breeze Dance Hall to earn money. Her life hadn't changed much.
If it weren't for the constant discussions in the newspapers about Yves Artois' death and the ensuing disputes, Jenna might have believed that the assassination had been nothing more than a fevered dream during a moment of emotional breakdown!
According to the information Franca had gathered and the inferences she made, it seemed that the official Beyonders appreciated Jenna's actions in assassinating Yves Artois. They considered her to have made a remarkable contribution to eliminating a group of evil god followers. If it weren't for the political pressures from parliament and other constraints, they might have even wanted to award Jenna a medal!
Therefore, they had deliberately issued an inaccurate wanted poster and used the pretext of an investigation to help Jenna's brother, Julian. They drove away the lingering evil forces that had destabilized his emotions, curing the psychological illness that had been plaguing him. Under the guise of humanitarian aid and support for believers, they even found him an official job as a mechanic, where he could receive proper training!
For Jenna, apart from having to avoid her neighbors when visiting her brother, her life was nearly unaffected. She continued to study acting when needed, and played the role of the "extravagant woman" when necessary.
Based on Franca's experience, if Jenna stayed in the market district for a few more days, the *Purifiers* of the *Church of Everlasting Sun* would likely approach her, informing her of some of the basic knowledge and taboos to prevent her, as a wild Beyonder, from accidentally causing a disaster. They might even recruit her as an informant!
If it had been Beyonders from the *Church of Steam and Machinery*, they would have likely chosen to observe her from the shadows, quietly tracking her to figure out the source of her Beyonder abilities and connections. Depending on what they found, they would decide whether to capture her immediately, develop her as an informant, or let her lead them to bigger targets. The *Purifiers*, however, given the significant help Jenna had provided, would likely take a more straightforward approach.
Jenna didn't seem to care much about any of this.
If the official Beyonders wanted to capture her, she would run.
