180 Chapter 172 - Blind Spot. (1/2)
Later, evening, Maria and the girls reached White's village with Grandpa White, they followed Grandpa White to Mr. Teacher's house. Mrs. Teacher is crying while Darrie is comforting her while wiping off her tears. Maria is a bit moved by the sight, as in his impressions, they are supposed to be mean and arrogant. He walked to them and greeted politely, however...
”Mom, why is he wearing lady's outfits? Is he what people called as tranny?” Darrie asked and Mrs. Teacher quickly pulled her son away from Maria.
”Stay away from my son!” said the lady.
Yes, that's how they should behave, it's hard for someone to change their personality after all. Maria nodded as a sign of understanding.
”I see, then I shall take my leave.” said Maria, about to step out of the house.
”No, hold on...” Grandpa White stopped Maria, then he proceeds to explain the situation to the mother and son.
After realizing that Maria is the help Grandpa White brought for them, they apologize to Maria for their rudeness.
Mrs. Teacher starts explaining the situation to Maria. According to her, Mr. White went to the forest three days ago without telling them the reason, for her, it's quite unusual since the forest can be quite dangerous and her husband doesn't like outdoor activities.
”I see, but didn't anyone in the village helps to look for him? I mean, it has been three days after all.” said Maria.
”Well...” Mrs. Teacher tried to say something but felt a bit awkward.
”No one wants to help them apparently, except for me and Fetty's husband. We had tried finding him the whole yesterday but we didn't found him, he might have gotten into the deeper part of the forest, which is quite dangerous, especially for two unarmed old men like us. So we do not dare to get in further.” Grandpa White.
Maria thought for a while, he almost believed that Grandpa White is an 'unarmed old man' if Junior didn't tell him about some super robot Grandpa White make, but right now that's not his concern.
”I am not as capable as Chris and is not able to do his sense link, but I do have my own way to trace Mr. Teacher's current location. Can you please get any of his close items for me?” Maria asked.
Then, Mrs. Teacher took out a pair of indoor slippers from a shoe rack. Maria took out a small silver ball and rubbed it in a special pattern, the small ball starts to open up and turned into a small creature with a big nose, I avoid confusion, let's just call it Big Nose. Big Nose sniffed that slippers... And sneezed.
Everyone including Maria, look at that little guy, the atmosphere is a bit awkward, after a few seconds, Big Nose starts taking its steps walking towards the door. Every step it takes will leave a glittering footprint. Seeing the little creature start walking, Maria relieved.
Then Maria and the girls as well as Grandpa White start to follow Big Nose's footprints and reach the forest near White's Village...

Meanwhile, Quill Town, Cathedral, Dominic's room.
Dominic is preparing for the evening prayer later, as Dan was badly injured, the other clergy took over his place temporarily, it's the clergy Sky and Chris saw from the tracker. He handed Dominic his clothes for the ceremony. Then the clergy started to ask some rather confidential questions.
”Your Grace, those outsiders seem to had successfully cleansed the abandoned building, but none of them are reporting this to you, do you want to summon them again for the detail?” the clergy asked.
Dominic gives him a leer which caused him to flinched a bit.
