Reincarnation Paradise-Chapter 893: Lady White
Chapter 893: Lady White
After Tsuchimikado Motoharu left, Su Xiao closed the curtains and locked the door. Based on the clues so far, the Necronomicon was in the hands of the Kihara clan. The Kihara clan was a large group directly under the Board of Directors in Academy City, with over four thousand members.
Most of these four thousand were non-combatant researchers, with only a few hundred having combat abilities, primarily members of the Hound Dogs. If Su Xiao moved against the Kihara clan, Aleister might intervene. However, Su Xiao was beyond caring. If he couldn't obtain the Necronomicon, he was as good as dead. Faced with life or death, why should he fear Aleister?
Moreover, Aleister rarely left his Windowless Building. Even if Su Xiao annihilated the Kihara clan, Aleister would most likely send subordinates to deal with him rather than intervene personally. Unless Aleister was willing to abandon his long-planned grand scheme, he wouldn't act directly. Compared to that scheme, the Kihara clan was insignificant.
Ss—
Su Xiao's portable radio crackled to life.
"It seems the Kihara clan is your obstacle," Aleister's voice came through the radio. He had heard Su Xiao's conversation with Tsuchimikado Motoharu through the space transmission lines.
"Yes. Are you going to intervene?"
"This will disrupt my plan, affecting steps 2034 to 2265. Stop."
Aleister's voice was devoid of emotion.
"Aleister, I told you before that I could help you. Time, place, target—just provide these and I'll handle the specifics. I've done your tasks, now it's my turn. You can't just tell me to stop because it disrupts your plan."
Su Xiao's grip tightened on the radio, causing cracks to appear.
"Leave Therestina Kihara Lifeline. The Necronomicon isn't in her hands. If you want to obtain it quickly, go to District 2. You'll find what you're looking for there. Consider this payment for the previous task."
Aleister didn't escalate the confrontation, instead providing crucial information. This was due to several factors, mainly Su Xiao's demonstrated combat prowess and the previous matter involving Kanzaki Kaori.
"District 2? I'll think about it."
Su Xiao crushed the radio in his hand, then closed his eyes to sense his surroundings. Several small, barely visible space transmission lines floated around him. With a wave of his arm, he shattered these lines, preventing Aleister from monitoring the room.
Having discovered the Necronomicon was with the Kihara clan, Su Xiao had anticipated Aleister's obstruction. However, Aleister hadn't expected Su Xiao's firm stance, which essentially conveyed: I've done your tasks, and now you're quibbling with me?
If Aleister indeed turned against Su Xiao, it would spell disaster for both. Su Xiao would ensure Aleister regretted it deeply.
Aleister might appear unfathomable, but Su Xiao saw him as a highly goal-oriented mage with significant weaknesses, including his inability to expose himself and his limited deployable combat force.
After clearing the room of Aleister's surveillance, Su Xiao took out two treasure chests and placed them on the wooden table. Even though Aleister couldn't see the chests, it was better to be cautious.
With a cigarette in his mouth, Su Xiao used the Redemption of Fate to light it, preparing for the thrilling moment of opening the chests.
There were two chests: one light gold, the other dark purple. They were the spoils from Mugino Shizuri and Stiyl Magnus.
Exhaling a puff of pale golden smoke, Su Xiao activated his "Emperor's Blessing" and reached out with his "Black Hand of Luck." Meanwhile, Bob the dog imagined Su Xiao's hand emitting black smoke as the light gold chest trembled like a frightened maiden.
Bob's imagination was impressive, and when Su Xiao opened the light gold chest, a golden light filled the room.
"It's shining!"
Su Xiao smiled, his previous frustration from the confrontation with Aleister vanishing. He eagerly awaited the contents of the light gold chest.

Su Xiao held the rod-like item in his hand, his mouth twitching. This thing looked incredibly suspicious.
As a single woman, it wasn't surprising that Mugino Shizuri possessed such an item. However, the fact that it became a healing wand made it particularly awkward. Su Xiao couldn't imagine a delicate healer using this in battle—the scene was too embarrassing and eye-searing.
Bob the dog curiously sniffed at it, his innocent eyes asking, "Master, what is this?"
"Just a multifunctional healing wand."
Bob nodded, accepting this explanation. To him, the wand seemed too short and oddly shaped.
Despite its shape and original use, Lady White had excellent attributes, significantly boosting a healer's performance.
Su Xiao then checked Mr. Black's attributes out of curiosity.

Compared to Lady White, Mr. Black wasn't as impressive, relying heavily on luck for its effectiveness due to its unstable attack power.
Overall, Su Xiao made a significant profit from the light gold chest. As for the dark purple chest, he wasn't too hopeful but decided to open it anyway.
When he did, purple light shone from the chest, another rare find!
Seeing the purple light, Su Xiao felt uneasy. Consecutive rare finds might mean he was exhausting his luck.
