The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Maria’s words set off a subtle alarm in Jagoan’s mind. He couldn’t resist asking Maria, “Do you suspect there’s something off about her identity?”

Maria nodded thoughtfully and asserted, “I have encountered accomplished Buddhist Masters in the past and they all shared a common trait, they strictly adhered to Buddhist teachings in their lives, quoting scriptures and drawing wisdom from Buddhist principles in their daily conduct and speech. To put it simply, they lived in accordance with Buddhism. However, this Master, except for Amitabha, rarely mentioned Buddhism. This discrepancy makes me wonder if she’s a genuine nun.”

Jagoan’s vigilance heightened instantly. He remarked, “If she’s not a real nun, then she’s concealing herself as a nun, awaiting our arrival. Whether friend or foe, there’s certainly an external force behind her besides the Warriors Den.”

Maria nodded gravely. “But, Young Master, don’t be overly concerned. I believe they’re not hostile and there’s a good chance they hold some grudge against the Warriors Den. ‘The enemy of my enemy is my friend,’ as the saying goes. However, they’re still cautious around us, or there could be other reasons preventing them from revealing their true identities at the moment.”

Jagoan fell into contemplation for a moment and inquired, “What Greek mythology did she mention?”

Maria, cautious not to divulge too much, replied, “She spoke of the tale of Achilles, emphasizing that even the strongest could meet their downfall if they’re not careful.”

Jagoan, without delving further into the matter, made a firm decision. “Let’s turn back and investigate.”

Surprised, Maria asked, “Young Master, do you intend to visit Greenwood Nunnery?”

“Yes.” Jagoan affirmed, “I want to discover who they are, why they possess such knowledge about us and why they’ve adopted nun disguises to await us. Initially, they asserted Buddhism’s sanctity and denied us entry. It’s only right that I respect their wishes. But now, it’s evident that they may not truly be Buddhists. It’s better to confront them directly.”

Maria hesitated momentarily and then consented, “If the Young Master wishes to investigate, I will accompany you. Just exercise caution and avoid inadvertently turning potential allies into adversaries.”

Jagoan nodded, resolute. “I simply want to know who they are. If there’s a chance to become friends due to a shared adversary, we should be open and honest. Keeping secrets would be shameful.”
