They all call me Great Master-Chapter 544 - 541: The Crow and The Eagle!

Jennifer was the first to rush toward the direction from which the note had come.

Amy climbed a nearby tree quickly, looking out from her high vantage point.

Shara gazed at the note with curiosity.

As for Jian, she was the most straightforward.

She walked directly to the largest tree in the center of the small grove, ready to start digging.

While binding her chest with bandages, Anna muttered to herself—

"You all could unite against me just now, so how come you have started acting on your own now?

The Kledos Family sent me here, hardly to integrate you all, right?

Let me tell you, I'm not going to be your captain.

I'm going to act alone!"

Anna emphasized this, but her body was already involuntarily digging under the tree.

It wasn't for any other reason.

She was just curious.

Anna was curious about what was underneath the tree.

A box!

Underneath the tree was a huge box, with a note attached—

I mean no harm.

For, I shall give you a chance.

A chance to withdraw.

If you leave now, you'll go back to your own lives, but if you open this box, everything about you will change.

The note was unsigned.

But, all five women present knew it was left by Cassandra Credos.

"At such a time, how could we possibly withdraw?"

Anna grumbled, but didn't immediately open it, instead turning to look at Amy, Shara, Jennifer, and Jian.

Shara and Jian were immediately tempted.

The two women who considered themselves ordinary thought this was too risky. If they could be a bit safer, that would be best.

But Amy and Jennifer thought further.

Having come this far, would their opponent let them go?

Just as Anna said, at such a time, how could they possibly withdraw?

Not to mention whether the words on this note could be trusted, the people present were untrustworthy.

Some joined, some did not.

What would those who joined do to those who did not?

One could guess it with their heels.

Therefore, Amy and Jennifer did not speak up. The two implicitly agreed to join.

And at that moment, the woman who considered herself not too perverse suddenly turned mysteriously to look at the other four women and said—

"Do you think there might be a mission inside the box—to kill those who didn't join?"

Such words shocked Shara and Jian, who had been thinking of withdrawing.

Indeed!

Could it really be so?

Shara thought of Woolter.

Jian thought of James.

'Woolter (James) could do such a thing!'

The two women fell silent at once.

Looking at the four who had tacitly agreed, Anna chuckled.

"Alright, since the four of you agree.

Let's see what's inside the box together!"

Saying this, Anna flipped open the box.

And immediately, the woman, who didn't consider herself too perverse, looked inside—

There were five sets of black hooded capes.

Five strange bracers.

A letter.

"Is this it?"

Anna was slightly disappointed and casually picked up one of the bizarre bracers.

Then, immediately, the lady discovered something different.

There was a sleeve sword in the bracer!

Without hesitation, Anna put it on, and then—with a flick of her wrist—

Click!

A sharp blade sprung out from her wrist.

"Oh-ho!"

Anna let out an excited, strange cry, repeatedly retracting the blade and springing it out again.

"Childish!"

Jennifer judged, then putting on the bracer, she began to flick the sleeve sword in and out, repeating the action twice.

For Jennifer, her review was to get familiar with the new equipment.

Amy had similar thoughts.

Moreover, Amy thought the sleeve sword was very convenient and well-suited for a lady like Shara, whose physical strength couldn't compare to that of a man's.

"A sudden attack is enough to take down an enemy!"

Amy assessed.

As for herself?

She preferred axes.

Under Amy's guidance, Shara used the sleeve sword somewhat clumsily.

Jian was just as clumsy, with Jennifer instructing her.

The clumsy duo glanced at each other, a friendly expression emerging in their eyes.

The instructing duo exchanged a look, a hint of recognition appearing in their gaze.

Only Anna was alone.

"Hey, hey, what are you implying?

I have Marinda!"

Anna shouted loudly.

"She's pregnant!"

Jennifer sneered coldly.

Anna paused, then yelled again.

"So what?"

"Someone else's child."

Jennifer sneered coldly again.

"So what?"

Compared to her previous bluster, Anna's momentum was now much weaker, and then, Jennifer sneered coldly once more.

"You can't even beat that man."

"So, so what?"

This time, Anna stuttered.

"You're now a subordinate to that person's aunt."

Jennifer continued her heart-stabbing remarks.

"So, so..."

Anna was completely at a loss for words.

And Jennifer, having claimed a temporary victory, began to take black hooded cloaks out of the box, soft in texture and light-absorbing.

In the night and shadows, they would certainly add a significant advantage.

As Jennifer was distributing the hooded cloaks, Anna swiftly took the letter from the box and opened it directly—

If you are able to read this letter, congratulations on making the right choice.

Of course, I wouldn't issue an order like 'those who join must kill those who haven't joined.'

I am not such a nasty person.

I simply hope that those who haven't joined will, in the future, face endless regret when confronted by you who have joined, and if possible, regret to the point of suicide would be a fine choice.

I won't be assigning you any tasks for the time being.

Because you are still too weak.

Please make good use of this time to grow quickly, otherwise the only thing in front of your gravestones will be the flowers I send.

Finally—

'Shapeless,' welcome.

Cassandra Credos

...

After reading the letter, Anna looked up and exchanged a glance with Jennifer, Amy, Shara, and Jian.

The so-called not-too-aberrant lady, the lady who considered herself normal, the two ladies who didn't think they were murderers, and the completely unaware psychiatric patient lady all expressed through their eyes: And this isn't nasty enough?

"'Shapeless,' huh?"

Jennifer murmured to herself and then pulled Jian away.

Amy did the same, pulling Shara in another direction to leave.

Anna was left standing there alone.

"Hey, hey, I'm the strongest here!

Shouldn't I be the leader?

Shouldn't you show me some respect?"

Anna shouted.

But, Jennifer and Jian, Amy and Shara walked away even faster.

Soon, only Anna was left.

The lady looked at the backs of the four, then at the empty box, and set the letter and the box on fire.

Flames leapt, smoke wafted.

Blue smoke rose into the sky.

Higher up, a falcon flashed by, quickly vanishing from sight.

But the crow, another arcane creature, was different.

It stayed quietly in the shadows, peering into everything in the room, naturally including the voices coming from the Messenger Stone—

"Do everything possible to protect Arthur."
