Summer placed his glass down and headed downstairs.

Christ was not particularly tall, standing around 5’9”, with a physique that leaned towards stocky.

Upon seeing Summer cdown, a flicker of concern crossed his face.

"Summer, where did you get that Jellyfish Seal? Have you seen that girl Cynthia?"

Christ and the Grand Elder were among the senior members of the organization; they had watched Cynthia grow up.

They had taught Cynthia the art of hypnosis, but she had surpassed them, becoming more skilled than her teachers.

Summer was sought out by Christ because, although Summer had a strong presence within the organization, he rarely meddled in

its affairs.

In recent years, it had been K, the young upstart, who had been openly commanding others.

After Cynthia's disappearance, K, still at a young age back then, had already mastered the art of winning people over.

Over the years, even without the Jellyfish Seal, everyone except the Grand Elder and Christ had cto heed his word.

Only Summer remained neutral, but now that he had suddenly sided with K, Christ wanted to know what was happening.

Christ was oblivious to the fact that Summer was the mastermind behind Forbidden Island, and unaware of Summer's cold-hearted

nature.

"How's Cynthia been all these years? Why hasn't she cback? Summer, where is she now?"

Christ no longer possessed his former vigor; both he and the Grand Elder had been waiting for Cynthia's return.

Cynthia was the Holy Daughter of BK; she should be honored. How could she be a solitary existence?

Summer found his worried look amusing.

Once upon a time, the sight of Christ's worried expressions would have sent him rushing to Cynthia's side, to torment her
