"Hahaha! Amazing! I love it! What a splendid job you did, Mira! I couldn't have done any better myself!" A man watching a projection surrounded by women bellowed out as he watched Mira.

"I just can't get enough of you Mira! That scene was truly perfect! It even started giving me goosebumps, that's how awesome it was! Hahaha! I wonder if you'll do the same thing to me when you meet me? Oh! I can't wait!"

The women around him all just sighed in resignation. They had watched that scene as well and could feel the bloodlust and hatred emanating from Mira. It was so thick that it even made their skin crawl. Sure their Master may be one of the strongest people in existence, but nobody ever bothers him. So almost none of them have seen him fight before nor have they themselves been in a true life and death battle before.

They were sure that he's probably killed billions of people or more, but he just never showed that side of him. To them, they only saw a man with a weird fetish for women and didn't think that he was such a bad person. Sure, he would force women to give their minds and bodies to him, but he never treated them badly after that.

But Mira was different. Always vulgar, killing whenever she wanted, treating others like trash, and constantly threatening others. A girl that lives to fight and won't take no for an answer. Honestly, some of the girls thought Mira was more manly than their master.

"Master, are you going to keep tormenting the girl? Usually, when you do something like this, it makes a bit more sense, but there is almost no reason for that man to go to her Sect other than to bother Mira. I don't think she knows that it was you, but she definitely knows that something is wrong." One of the women said without any expression.

"Hmm. You're right. I don't want her catching onto me, or else there's no fun in it. Though it could be interesting to see her keep wondering if every unfortunate encounter was because of her bad luck or because of me! But I don't think she'd really care or handle things differently even if she knows. Hmmm… I guess I'll hold off for a bit. Things are going to get juicy soon anyways. Hahaha!" The Master answered with a laugh causing all of the women to shake their heads. While most of them didn't like Mira, they really had to pity the girl for being so unlucky.

Mira was now going about her daily schedule like normal, but there were a few things that were different. While her attitude was still the same, she was much more intense about everything. During the sparring sessions, she'd be a lot rougher and force her partner to put more effort into the spar. She also was cultivating much more than usual and putting more effort into studying. The aura that she radiated was also extremely fierce.

This is because Mira really wants to kill that bastard as soon as possible and only strength can make that happen.

On the Sect Masters side, she hadn't done much to make Elder Bates forget about what happened. She only made him drink a sedative and gave him a couple of good smacks on the head then brought him to her office and laid him down on a couch.

After a while, the Elder finally woke up with a massive headache.

"Ahh. What happened? Where am I?" Elder Bates started looking around and noticed the Sect Master.

"Sect Master Jane?! What are you doing here all the way over here in Gale City? Why was I asleep? What happened?" Elder Bates started bombarding her with questions that puzzled the Sect Master.

"Gale City? We are in the Battle Maiden Sect right now. You came here saying you had something important to talk to me about. Don't you remember?" The Sect Master narrowed her eyes.

"The Battle Maiden Sect!? What the hell am I doing here?! I have no reason for coming here! I need to hurry back to Gale City!" Elder Bates panicked a little. He doesn't even remember leaving the city, how could he have ended up here? This caused the Sect Master to become extremely suspicious about this situation.

"Do you remember anything before you came here? Because you said that you came here to talk to me about something then met with one of our disciples and passed out. Do you mind explaining yourself?" The Sect Master exerted some pressure onto the Elder which caused him to be a bit jumpy.

"No! I don't remember anything! Actually, the last thing I remember is finishing all of the work in Gale City, but everything else after that is blank! I promise that I had no reason to come here! I don't even know how I got here or why!" Elder Bates pleaded and the Sect Master only found this situation extremely odd.

'Was he brainwashed? But why did someone brainwash him to come to my Sect? Usually, the Sect Master would've come if things were so important, but then again why my Sect? If they needed something from Lunar Fox City, then he came to the wrong place. It's not like the Battle Maiden Sect has anything to hide and there's no point for him to come in and steal something as he should know that anything important is always with an Elder. Not to mention after he fainted from coming into contact with Mira, he seemed to come back to his senses. Was that just a coincidence or did someone send him here to mess with Mira? But I've never seen Mira show her face to anyone, but the disciples and she always wears a mask when she leaves. I guess I'll just have to ask her later.' The Sect Master thought to herself.

"You may go, Elder Bates. If you need anything else, please send your Sect Master." Sect Master Jane said promptly and Elder Bates immediately agreed and left in a hurry. The Sect Master frowned after he left and called Mira to her office.

Not long after, Mira walked into her office and sat down across from her.

"I'm not going to scold you on your actions as he was truly acting out of line in someone else's Sect. I don't think you would've been able to kill him either, but you're full of surprises so I just wanted to make sure you didn't pull something out with the ability to kill him. I'll give those two pills to you sometime in the future, but I'll have to decrease your Sect Points a bit. Anyways, what are you going to do now?" The Sect Master asked in a gentle voice.

"Get strong enough and when the time comes, kill him. That man forfeit his life as soon as he looked at me like that." Mira said indifferently which caused the Sect Master to frown slightly.

"What if I told you he was brainwashed to come here? Would you still want to kill him?" Hearing this, Mira was slightly shocked but didn't reveal it.

"Even if that was the case, doesn't matter. Even if he was brainwashed to come here, the way he looked at me was not a face that a brainwashed person would make. The man was already thinking about ways to have his way with me in the middle of the Sect." Mira said coldly which surprised the Sect Master a bit.

"Elder Bates said that he doesn't even remember coming here. He said that the last thing he remembers is finishing his work in Gale City then all of a sudden he's here in my office waking up. Do you have any ideas as to what or who might've caused this?"

Mira had to think about this question a bit. Doesn't remember coming here… Seemed like he was brainwashed… Only came back to reality after she knocked him out… He didn't seem brainwashed though almost like it was his own thoughts that brought him here… Wait! This has happened once before in a different, but she ended up killing them anyway. They kept asking who she was and why she was doing this before his head got chopped off… Is this a coincidence? There's only one person that I can think of that can do something like this on different worlds. Mira then started connecting the dots and realized that the possibility of that Elder coming here under the order of that shitty god is relatively high. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

"Dammit! It's him! You son of a bitch! So you're the one that keeps doing all of this shit to me, huh?! Motherfucker!" Mira stood up and yelled angrily at the sky and she could swear that she heard laughing. The Sect Master was surprised to see Mira's reaction.

"Do you know who might've done this?" The Sect Master asked solemnly.

"I have a pretty good guess. It's some asshole who's been tormenting me my entire life. I should've known." Mira said while gritting her teeth.

"Is there any way we can stop him? Do you know where he is? Can he brainwash more people like that?" The Sect Master kept throwing out questions.

"Good luck finding him, much less stop him. And I doubt that he's brainwashing people, it's probably more of something like a suggestion. That guy wouldn't send some brainless puppets to torment me, he'd make sure that it's the real thing. This whole thing was probably just a setup to get that shitty Elder to have his way with me!" Mira didn't give much information since this is a rather sensitive topic that she didn't feel like getting into.

The Sect Master didn't know what to make of this information other than someone is targeting Mira and can affect people's minds.

"Okay, you can go for now. I'll give those pills to you in a few days or so." The Sect Master said to which Mira just nodded and left. She then sat there thinking about a few things.

Mira was also thinking about some things as well.

'If he truly can affect people's minds, does that mean he can affect everyone's mind? He hasn't done anything to Maria or Dominique yet. Nor has he done anything to the 500 women that I saved. Plus, now that I know that he can do something like this he should know that I'll be observing their behavior more now to see if I find anything off. But there have been plenty of chances for them to betray me unless he's just waiting to wait until they gain my trust then stab me in the back. Maybe this whole thing was a play and he wanted me to find out he can do this? Ah! Forget it! I'll just observe them until I feel like they aren't affected. Though my intuition tells me that they should be fine. I'll have to think more about this.' Mira thought to herself as she went back to what she was doing.
