"The Mysterious Serial Killer"

"My name is Helga; I am here to ask you if you repent all of your crimes and did you feel any mercy on those people you killed?" Jin Ae asks.

"No, why should I? All the weak in this world should be killed. This is what we call the survival mode." The man said.

"Mayor Juanito, welcome to the everlasting fire in Hell." She said while her voice was echoed at the same time, she stabbed the mayor in the chest with the dagger she was holding. As the dagger sucked up its victim's blood, Jin Ae could clearly see it as the circular crystal on top of the dagger's handle gradually filled up. She suddenly felt joy in what she did and she laughed when her victim was dead.

Jin Ae wakes up from a bad dream, but is it really a dream?

"NO!!!" Jin Ae screamed and immediately got up from her bed, and muttered a prayer.

Meanwhile, Ethan trained again, and his training partner was Kaito.

"Wait, I can't breathe," Ethan said as Kaito choked him with his magic.

"You have to do something Ethan, Saesbyeol will not give you a time's up or will not show any mercy," Kaito said and Ethan used the plants, at the same time he called the plants to help him. Immediately, a huge vine came out and wrapped themselves on Kaito's body and this was the reason he escaped from Kaito's strangulation.

"Good job, Ethan. That's very interesting. You use nature, which is a natural ability of a babaylan," Kaito said.

"Because I have a good teacher, and what's next?" Ethan asks.

"It's my turn," Calista said.

"Mom?" Ethan said.

"Don't be too comfortable, even though I am your mother," Calista said. Meanwhile, Catherine was so excited to see this match.

"Go, Ethan," Catherine said as she cheered her student.

"This is so interesting, mom versus son they are both spell casters," Jasmine said.

"If senior Lucas was here and he would so proud of his son, also I am sure that he would be happy about his son's progress," Nana Amelia said.

"Indeed, this young man was truly improving on his battle skills unlike before when he was the night crawler," Nana Esther said.

"That is because of Love," Jasmine said while she was staring at Baekhyun and Akihiko who are currently supporting Ethan to enhance his abilities.

"You two, you should focus on your energy to the Sigbinan. This is just like you are under meditation, you guys have to focus and have a deep concentration." Kaito said as he instructed Akihiko and Baekhyun to channel their energy to Ethan. But their training exercise was stopped when an expected visitor arrived.

"Guada?" Catherine said.

"Headmistress, this is just an emergency. I am not physically here; I want you guys to know that There's a serial killer in the city who is currently killing someone, but the witches are now coordinating with the city police but we have a strong feeling that Saesbyeol was involved in this killing, how? We will still be doing our investigation," The young witch said

"Thank you Guada, don't worry I will go back to the city right now to do my investigation, but did you ask for help at Ninong Jeff?" Catherine asks.

"Yes, headmistress," Guada replied.

"See you in a bit Guada," Catherine said and Guada bowed her head then she disappeared.

"Monday, Let's go," Jasmine said.

"Nana Esther and Nana Amelia, we have to go," Catherine said.

"Sure, you girls take care, okay?" Nana Esther said.

"Yes, thank you, Nana," Catherine said and she immediately waved her hands while Jasmine was holding her.

"Catherine, you have to remember if this is one of the Saesbyeol's minions you have to be careful," Calista said and Catherine nodded her head as she understood what Calista said to her before they disappeared.

"Saesbyeol is getting stronger, but you have us son, we will help you to win this war," Calista said and she released a strike of lightning at the same time she tried to hit her son with the strike of lightning. But Ethan immediately summons a huge rock as he uses this as a shield from the lightning that Calista made.

"You have to fight with me, Kaito I want you to stop Baekhyun and Akihiko from doing support to Ethan, now!" Calista said and she released a huge amount of lightning towards Ethan and the huge rock was broken into pieces. While Kaito stops the two foxes from supporting Ethan.

"Why?" Baekhyun asks.

"That's an order from your mother-in-law, now we have something to do which is learning how to control these nine tails and what is the use of these tails," Kiato said and he showed everyone his nine tails.

"Our first tail is for Multiply, try this," Kaito said and he showed Baekhyun and Akihiko how to use the illusion of multiplying themselves.

Meanwhile, Jin Ae goes to her seven victims,

"Mary Hidalgo, a fraudster who stole millions of pesos from those who invested in her cooperative in 2000, and now another investment thing she operates. In this case, in the Ten Commandments, this was the eighth commandment, "You shall not steal," Where this is the reason why is she on my list?" Jin Ae said and she approached the woman at the same time Jin Ae wore a wig as her disguise

"Hi Miss Hidalgo, nice to meet you, I am sorry I am so late, hope you understand." Jin Ae said and extended her hand to the woman as she wanted to have a shake hand to the woman but the woman refused while smiling at her.

"You must be Anne Mendez, right?" Miss Hidalgo asks.

"Of course, I am so interested in what you offer me, my money will grow in just a week, this is what I want? Why? I am so busy with my business." Jin Ae said.

"What is your business by the way?" Miss Hidalgo asks and their conversation is interrupted when the waiter asks their orders.

"Oh, yes, I would like to have this Tiramisu and a Cappuccino, please. How about you Miss Hidalgo? Besides I am late for our meeting let me handle everything," Jin Ae said and she winked at the woman.

"I'll order the same with my business partner." Miss Hidalgo said and she smiled at the waiter.

"Thank you, ladies, in a minute your order will be here." The waiter said and winked at Jin Ae which was noticed by Miss Hidalgo,

"He likes blonde, he got a good taste." Miss Hidalgo said.

"Miss Hidalgo, you're making me blush, anyway, let's go back to the proposal that you offered to me." Jin Ae said.

"Is it true that you will invest A hundred million dollars? Not peso?" Miss Hidalgo asks.

"Yes, you've heard it right, do we have any issue about that?" Jin Ae asks.

"No, No, that's absolutely awesome, oh, here's our order." Miss Hidalgo said and the waiter placed their order on their table.

"Thank you, Izaac" Jin Ae said while she saw the name tag on the waiter's uniform.

"You welcome Beautiful," The waiter said.

"Hey, young man, do you have a partner?" Miss Hidalgo asks which immediately the waiter replies.

"Nope, I am waiting for someone to come in," The waiter responded to them kindly and Miss Hidalgo introduced Jin Ae to the waiter.

"I want you to meet my business partner, Miss Anne Mendez she's single I am right?" Miss Hidalgo said.

"Miss Hidalgo, that's so embarrassing," Jin Ae said while she was blushing.

"you guys are so perfect, for each other." Miss Hidalgo said.

"So you are, Anne, nice to meet you, my name is Izaac." The waiter said and the man extended his hand to the girl where Jin Ae immediately took it smile at him at the same time.

"Nice meeting you." Jin Ae said.

On the other side of the story, Catherine and Jasmine go to the place where the witches are waiting for Catherine.

"Head Mistress," Guada said and vowed to her.

"You don't have to do that, but where's Ate Meryl?" Catherine asks and suddenly Meriam and Meryl approach her.

"Head Mistress, we have the details that you need about this killer," Meryl said.

"Really? That was too fast," Jasmine said and Meriam gave the folders to Catherine where they saw the stab wounds to the victim's body.

"Thirteen stab wounds," Catherine said.

"It seems like normal, just like the other criminals," Jasmine said.

"You're wrong, their souls are missing," Meriam said and she showed Catherine and Jasmine the first sixth victim.

"They have the same count of stab wounds and it looks like the shape of wounds is familiar to me," Catherine said.

"Yes, in Jin Ae's granny," Jasmine said.

"I believe the weapon that the killer used was the Stiléto apó ti Géenna," Catherine said.

"Dagger from Hell?" Meryl said.

"Now we can confirm that Saesbyeol is involved in this case," Meriam said.

"So, what are we going to do?" Jasmine asks.

"I have to report this to Kuya Baekhyun and Kuya Ethan. Especially Kuya Baekhyun, he will not be happy on this news." Catherine said.

"Don't worry Head Mistress we will ask the others to roam around the city," Meriam said.

"No, Ate Meriam let the witches rest I don't want anyone will get hurt, for now, let the police do their job but I will talk to Ninong Jeff again about this," Catherine said while she was sad about what she found.

"I got it, Head Mistress," Meryl said then they vow to Catherine while Catherine and Jasmine suddenly disappear.

Going back to Ethan and Calista,

"Mom, that hurts," Ethan said as he was hanging upside down by Calista's vines and a wild plant was waiting to devour him.

"Ethan, no one will help you there, your husband and best friend are busy, and Nana Amelia, and Esther won't help you as well. So, you must do something before that wild plant will eat you," Calista said. Ethan will cast a spell but Calista stops him.

"No magic, you have to use your natural ability as the Sigbinan," Calista said.

"But Mom!" Ethan said.
