Chapter 565 Fourth?

　　"Hmm?" Compass Carburettor was surprised as the caravan entered Tentuna City, one of the border cities of the Xetuka Kingdom. 

　　The building itself wasn't anything special. It was just a place for such caravans to stop while passing through the city.

　　It was called Yakuna, a lodge for caravans. There were around five Yakunas throughout the city, with Horan booking one of them.

　　They had used up most of their provisions. And hence, this place was perfect to replenish everything, not to mention allow everyone in the caravan to rest their tired bodies.

　　Horan had a comfortable journey, but the same couldn't be said for the rest. And hence, they stopped here. After all, once they reached the capital city, there was a lot of work for them to do.

　　But just as the caravan began to file into the Yakuna, Compass Carburettor looked outside the window to sightsee, coming across a marketplace where he caught sight of a familiar face.

　　"What is he…doing here?" He was pleasantly surprised at the encounter, having never expected to see this person here.

　　Fourth!

　　This was the Demon that had freed him from the control of the Money-Making System, setting him up onto the path of a System Slayer.

　　Currently, Fourth had masked himself, having disguised as a human. But, Compass Carburettor was able to casually see through the disguise.

　　After all, to the one with the power of Lore, all falsities were laid bare.

　　Upon noticing his surprise, Stencil looked in his line of sight, noticing Fourth, exclaiming in surprise, "I know that uncle."

　　"You know him?" Compass Carburettor muttered in surprise.

　　"Yeah, I talked with him once in the park near our house." She said, thinking for a moment before continuing, "You left for that interview. And I woke up too early that day. So once I got ready, I decided to spend some time in that park since it has a good scenery early in the morning."

　　"That's where I saw that uncle jogging." Stencil said, frowning as she talked, "He just waved at me and made some small talk…"

　　"I see," Compass Carburettor nodded, closing his eyes for a moment before opening them as he looked at Fourth with a calm gaze.

　　It was apparent, now that he had confirmed it based on Stencil's recount.

　　Fourth had arrived there to probe into Compass Carburettor's status, looking for his daughter first. And if he determined that Compass Carburettor was easy prey, Fourth would take action.

　　But it seemed that he couldn't manage to do it in the end as time ran out, as the Money-Making System returned to the System World on the same day.

　　Upon seeing that it was a failure, Fourth decided to use the portal formed by the Money-Making System to return to the System World.

　　It was apparent that Fourth was planning to follow after the Money-Making System to obtain its System Fragment. After all, any System from the Monetary Genre had considerable value, even for System Slayers.

　　And it was then that he helped Compass Carburettor in becoming a System Slayer.

　　Now that he saw Fourth, Compass Carburettor planned to get in touch with him, for various reasons. After all, at that time, Fourth had mentioned their group that consisted of five System Slayers, with Compass Carburettor being the sixth.

　　He was indeed curious about that, wishing to see how the other System Slayers fared. Even though the concept of the System Slayer was a trap prepared by the Systems to obtain the power of the Main Character System for themselves, as long as the growing Systems in the minds of the System Slayers were destroyed, this trap lost its effect.

　　Though, they would begin to infest the minds of the System Slayers in the future as they think about the Systems they plan to kill, refine, etc. So, it was a recurring trap.

　　But, this could also serve as a good use for him. After all, Stencil was capable of refining them. that was how she created the Secret Refiner System for her use. She could use them to strengthen herself further.

　　"Let's alight here." Compass Carburettor stared at Stencil, "I'm curious about Fourth."

　　"I am too." Stencil nodded, "I want to meet other System Slayers and see how strong they are."

　　"Fourth might have a way to contact the others." Compass Carburettor nodded as he watched the caravan stop within the Yakuna.

　　The two of them alighted from their carriage and approached Horan's carriage, requesting to meet him.

　　"We thank you, Lord, for this hospitable journey. If we meet in the future, we'll definitely repay this favour."

　　Horan stared at the two individuals before him, his eyes lingering on Yaka for a second longer, feeling that it was a waste that they were going away. Thinking for a moment, he took out a crystalline emblem and gave it to Teto, "If you wish to meet me in the future, use this to seek an audience."

　　"Or if you were to face any trouble from the authorities, use this to save yourself." He continued, "You can claim the backing of Horan Fawnker, future Duke of the Electra Empire."

　　"Thank you, my Lord." Teto and Yaka bowed in response before they made their exit, leaving the Yakuna.

　　[Are we going to meet Fourth directly?]

　　[Yep, there's no reason to delay. Do you want to try the honey trap method?]

　　[Don't wanna. Uncle Fourth isn't good-looking enough.]

　　[You have high standards, brat.]

　　[Well duh.]

　　Currently, both of them were conversing through Mental Energy. It was a simple process where they had to direct their thoughts at each other.

　　Through the Secret Refiner System, Stencil was able to make out the contents of the Mental Energy. As for Compass Carburettor, he was the Main Character, also able to do the same now.

　　It was the easiest method to converse discreetly from anywhere in the world. After all, thoughts only took an instant to travel the world.

　　Compass Carburettor observed the crowd, watching Fourth entering the flea market as he inspected the items there one after another.

　　After making eye contact, the two approached the Demon that led to the start of their journey.
