I traveled through time and space as a villain and became her heart-stealer.

But in this huge ink painting, a figure seems out of place.

Richard Plantarenay.

His entire body was wrapped in red magic, like a cocoon, and was particularly eye-catching.

It was as if he was the embodiment of all the lies in the world, the lie itself.

Katerina had investigated him thoroughly.

He is nineteen years old, from Pingye Village, and is a senior official of the Joyful Empire.

Accept the secret mission, destroy the border wall and sneak into the Pure Love Kingdom.

It has extremely strong combat and anti-reconnaissance capabilities.

However, in front of Catalina, all these were as fragile as paper.

The blood mist magic was indeed very tricky and at one point it could ignore all of Katarina's offensive means.

But for Catalina, this is not something that cannot be cracked.

In the effect of [Tracker], "Lies" will be automatically deciphered.

In this black and white ink painting, an obscure and thin thread connects the blade in her hand and Richard's body.

This is the clue that the tracker found to crack the situation.

As long as you attack along the trajectory indicated by the red thread, you can break the blood mist magic and harm Richard's body.

Katarina lowered her eyes and tightened her grip on the sword in her hand again.

"Tracer, Holy Cut."

With a low hum, white holy light shone from the surface of the sword blade, and then it attacked Richard Plantarenay as fast as lightning.

With a "plop", Richard's face turned pale and one of his arms fell to the ground, spurting out bright red blood.

He gritted his teeth, cold sweat seeping from his forehead, and then his body turned into a ball of blood mist again and disappeared.

When he reappeared, Richard's arm had been reattached to his shoulder.

It was just a five-centimeter-long bloody wound, with blood staining the collar of the shirt red.

"As expected of you, Lady Knight, you can easily break my blood mist magic."

Richard let out a breath and his expression finally became serious.

At this point, he realized that Katarina had completely gained the upper hand.

His blood mist magic uses his own blood as a medium to transfer all the damage he suffers to surrounding objects.

In a sense, this is also a kind of deception.

You thought you were attacking me, but you were really just attacking an insignificant object.

For example, there are potholes on the road and stones on the wall.

Distorts the attack instead of taking damage.

This is the true effect of the [Fraud Trick].

However, ever since Katarina used the Tracker, the deception trick has ceased to work.

The characteristic of the deception trick is no longer to transfer "all damage", but to only transfer "part of the damage" that is fatal.

Completely suppressed.

"If you can cooperate with my investigation, you will suffer less in the future, okay?"

As she spoke, Catalina slowly sheathed her sword and walked towards Richard.

Her calves were wrapped in long white leather boots, and her momentum rose rapidly with every step she took.

Not far away, the other inspectors saw Catalina regain the upper hand and burst into applause.

They agreed that the fruits of victory had been reaped.

However, Catalina's eyes were cold, her right hand tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, her eyes were downcast as she walked towards Richard, her red lips slightly opened:

"Who is 'the boss lady'?" She lowered her voice and spoke very quickly.

"I do not know."

"What is your purpose in destroying the border wall?"

"Just here for sightseeing." Richard still maintained that sneer.

——Whoosh!

With a flash of the knife, blood flowed from Richard's calf, adding a new wound.

"If you want to lie, you'd better pick your opponent."

Catalina's eyes were cold as she continued to walk towards Richard.

Richard had a blank expression on his face. He felt a sharp pain and squinted his eyes to look at the injury on his leg.

Blood flowed down his legs, and the bright red bloodstains penetrated deep into the ground, forming glaring shapes.

This time, even "normal damage" cannot be transferred.

Good, Richard thought.

Getting hurt and bleeding was also part of his plan.

"Ms. Knight, you seem to have misunderstood our intentions."

Richard put on a false smile and began to dodge again.

"Sneaking into the Pure Love Kingdom was not a mission assigned to me by the Empire, but something I wanted to do on my own initiative."

"So, your threats to me are totally useless."

As he spoke, Richard suddenly exerted force on his feet and rushed towards the shouting inspectors.

Richard showed a ferocious smile on his face and reached out to grab the nearest inspector, completely ignoring the bleeding wounds on his body.

"On the contrary, if I take you hostage, you won't be able to exert your full strength, right?"

He said with a cruel smile.

However, the next moment, a sharp sword light flew across and pierced through his body.

Many members of the Inspectorate looked pale as they watched the man being cut in half, blood splattering on their faces.

The next second, the man's body exploded like a balloon.

Bright red blood filled the air like mist.

"Hurry up and escape. I will take care of him!"

Catalina frowned, subconsciously feeling that Richard had ulterior motives, and she quickened her pace again.

Next, the offense and defense between the two became more thrilling.

Swords flashed and sabers shone, and both sides tried to take each other's life with the most brutal angle.

However, what puzzled Caterina was that Richard seemed to have completely given up on protecting himself.

Scarlet scars quickly covered his body. His figure flickered, constantly chasing other inspectors, and then bursting like a balloon.

Blood blooms like a flower of sin on Street 38.

Eleven, twelve, thirteen...

puff!puff!puff!

Finally, the bodies of the thirteen inspectors were all stained with his blood to varying degrees.

Catalina frowned, vaguely thinking of something, with red light flashing in her eyes, but she was not sure what it was.

"Tracker", start!

Catalina had a bad premonition, and she gritted her teeth, with a red magic light flashing in her eyes.

"This is……"

After the world turned back into an ink painting, Catalina's expression flashed with confusion for a moment.

This time, the protagonists of the picture became the teammates she spends every day with.

The red mark of "lie" will wrap all the Inspector teammates.

Everyone has become a prisoner of lies.

"what have you done?"

Catalina had a cold look on her face, holding a sword in her hand.

“I’m just completing the task that I’m supposed to complete.”

At this moment, a hand gently rested on Catalina's shoulder, and a cold, low voice came from behind.

--puff!

With a slash of the sword, the man's body once again exploded into blood mist and appeared not far away.

Scarlet blood splattered on her delicate face.

Katerina couldn't help but frown.

In the ink painting of "The Chaser", red magic elements appeared even on her own body.

She vaguely felt that Richard was planning something.

He deliberately received sword wounds and let the blood splatter on everyone's body.

A huge magic is about to be activated.

"No, stop him!"

Catalina gritted her teeth and quickened her pace again, rushing straight to where Richard was like a meteor chasing the moon.

The winner must be decided as soon as possible!

However, at this moment, Richard grinned, pressed his hands down, and pressed his ten fingers on the ground.

Om-!

In an instant, all the magic elements in the air within a radius of hundreds of meters were instantly drained away, and gathered madly towards Richard's position, condensing into a cyclone!

"Ms. Catalina, I won this duel!"

Richard slowly raised his head, blood and wounds all over his body, but his expression at this moment was full of a crazy sense of success.

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge and complex magic circle suddenly appeared, like an answer sheet engraved on the ground, and the scarlet lines suddenly lit up.

"Our approach is to let joy defeat false pure love."

"Our goal is to spread the teachings of joy throughout the land."

"Our purpose is to let happiness occupy everyone's heart."

"Come again, blood mist of joy."

Catalina was as fast as the wind and arrived in front of Richard in the blink of an eye. The silver sword was about to hit his neck!

At this moment, a thick blood mist suddenly burst out, gushing out from the center of the giant magic circle with a diameter of one hundred meters!

Woohoo——!

Along the street, the red fog spread rapidly, covering every corner.

The walls, buildings, team members, and even Katarina herself were all shrouded in red mist.

Catalina quickly covered her mouth and nose, realizing the danger of the mist.

However, she was still a step slow in reacting.

A wisp of red mist penetrated through her fingers, went along her cherry lips and entered her body, unfolding to take effect.

Waves of dizziness came over her, making the sword in Catalina's hand become extremely heavy.

"What, what is this...?" Catalina felt her body inexplicably getting hot.

She suddenly realized that she had seen this giant magic circle before.

Pink, symmetrical shape like a butterfly, but with an arc that makes people blush and their hearts beat faster.
