638 Who Is Who- Part 3

"How are they killing people?" asked Sister Jera, "We haven't heard a single clash of sound or noise during their time of death, "Did you smell any other witches?" the girl looked hopeful.

Sally twisted her lips to say, "There was one more person in the crowd though it was hard to tell who it was coming from."

The first confirmation was the deaths, and the second confirmation was that apart from Penny and Jera, there was one more witch who was not on their side. 

Another confirmation was that the council had sent a vampiress to keep an eye which meant it wasn't just Penny and Jera who knew about the involvement of the witches but also this woman named Sally. 

Though the woman had not spoken out loud about what she was doing here, Penny and Jera guessed that this woman was actually part of the council and maybe someone who never came out in the public that turned her into a spy. 

Hours were pa.s.sing by quickly that they had forgotten to keep track of time and now the sky was turning dark, "With only thirteen people alive, how are we going to find out who is who? Who is the witch that keeps killing the people one after another?" asked Jera. It was indeed a problematic situation at the same time, Penny didn't know if she should be happy that their search had narrowed down or to mourn for the people who lost their lives. 

"We let them go on to find the bodies while we try to trap and target one after another," Sally said, taking the lead. And though the vampiress had let out a secret, Penny wasn't sure she was ready to trust her but nonetheless, it was better to stick to each other in-group than be killed and piled in-group like what lay next to her. 

Both the white witches nodded and started to find the nearest person out of the ten people excluding them. 

When they heard a rustle not too far from they were, Penny said, "Take your position!"

The three females took different directions to hide behind the trees to finally see the vampire who had no morals coming through the path of where they stood. The way he was walking it didn't appear that he was looking for the dead bodies right now. With his hands in his trouser pockets, he continued to walk while Jera readied herself to throw the little perfume on his way before he would reach it, waiting for Penny's signal.

And as the man continued to walk in the deserted path, Penny tried remembering the words of the councilman before he left the forest. The task was about getting the dead bodies that were rotten.

Were the council members lazy to not complete the case if they knew there were dead bodies here? There might be some sketchy people in the council but she doubted that people would ever slack, why would the council give armatures who still hadn't pa.s.sed the exam to look for dead people. It was disrespectful to the dead to keep them lying here instead of giving them burial...wait a second, thought Penny to herself. 

Sister Jera who was still waiting for Penelope's word where the lady appeared to be staring at a tree in the dark. 

Penelope was not part of the council, therefore, she didn't know the in and out of what was going on but the woman named Sally should have known. She remembered the words she spoke a few minutes ago,

'We let them go on to find the bodies while we try to trap and target one after another.'

When Penny's eyes met Sister Jera's eyes, the girl waited for a sign that never came but Penny stepped out of the hiding that had the vampire stop walking and give a look at her. 

"Creeping up on me out of nowhere. Are you the one killing the people?" asked the vampire to her. 

Sister Jera appeared shocked and she who was leaning to the side missed her footing due to the slippery soil beneath her feet and ended up coming out in the eyes of the vampire. 

"Oh, a lackey and another one," the vampire continued to comment on seeing the vampiress step out from the shadow, "I was wondering how there were so many bodies being piled one after another that only ten of us are remaining right now out of the total examinees who had come here, shouldn't have been difficult for the three of you to pull the show."

"We didn't do it," Penny replied back to his false claims, "We were making sure that you weren't the one killing them."

Jera came to stand next to Penny and at that time, Penny s.n.a.t.c.hed the spray from her hand and sprayed it on the vampiress's face leaving everyone confused. The woman stumbled behind catching hold of her face where Penny had sprayed the moment she had come close. 

"Oh my G.o.d!" Jera whispered under her breath when the vampiress let go of her face to see the woman's face start to change to a scale-like appearance. They were walking with the black witch all this time?

If the woman was informed about her earlier, she wouldn't have had the question of who she was unless she faking it. Considering that there were no dead bodies, then there was only one thing that was dead here. The organs of the people who had been killed to be placed in the body of the witches. The woman should have known about it yet she had spoken about the dead bodies.

At the same time, it also meant that the woman knew who and why Penny had come out of nowhere.

"You found out sooner than I expected," said the black witch with her red eyes.
