Kincaid stared at Geoffrey and pursued the matter further. "Is the Holy Item the Evil Bead?"

"The Evil Bead?" Geoffrey grew pensive for a moment and replied, "I'm not certain of that, but it resembled a round piece of metal."

"Was there anything unusual about her facial features?" Kincaid questioned further.

"Her facial features..." As he tried to remember all that he had seen, Geoffrey suddenly clapped his hands as he exclaimed, "Now I recall, I think she had frightening eyes, and they were slitted like those of a snake!"

The snake eyes were the most striking feature of that woman.

Upon hearing what Geoffrey said, Kincaid suddenly fell silent, while Hilario silently let out a sigh beside him.

"Dad, who is that woman?" Dorothy asked. She could tell from Kincaid's earlier emotions as well as his sudden silence that he knew without any doubt who the woman was. She wanted to get the answer from him.

"She's your mother," Kincaid answered in a somewhat bitter voice.

"My mother?" Dorothy asked in confusion. "If she is my mother, why is she imprisoned in the wall of the chaos?"

"In the past, her father had defeated us all. I believed she was dead back then. Now, it appears that her father showed mercy to her. Her imprisonment in the wall of the chaos must be her father's punishment," Kincaid slowly explained.

Dorothy, Zen, and Geoffrey were all momentarily stunned by his words.

Zen was the first to figure it out, and he said, "Is her father the Snake Spirit King, Cornelius?"

"Yes," Kincaid admitted. "She is Cornelius' daughter, Itzel."

Although the Four Spirits Sect was an entity, the four sects were comprised from different races, and each hailed from their own ancestral lands. Their lifestyles varied greatly from each other.
