My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

"Yes, in your home," the blind seeress replied, her voice breaking the silence. "Sometimes, the best place for darkness to hide is right under the light. It seems that he is doing just that..."

Mist's eyes narrowed. "Can you tell me more than the rough location of the person I'm looking for? Who is he disguising as? What about his intentions?"

He had come to this woman with the sole intention of finding his daughter. Unfortunately, she had not received a proper answer.

Even after using her abilities to find Sera across the four continents, the Seer failed. In the end, Mist only asked about the whereabouts of the person who took her daughter.

The Seer closed her eyes, using her abilities to find more about that person. It was her abilities that allowed her to see through the threads of fate, finding the information that she needed through them.

As long as it wasn't information that touched the core of some incomprehensible fate, she could find out anything.

She was also one of the only few exceptions amongst the Heroes who awakened their abilities at the old age.

Mist had asked her to join the Academy many times but the old woman simply refused, saying that she had seen some information from her fate. According to her, the moment she stepped inside the Academy, she was going to die.

In the end, Mist had no choice but to allow the old woman to stay away from the Academy. She even arranged for a safe and secure place far away from the civilization, not wanting to lose a person with such a useful ability.

"Impossible..." After a few seconds of silence, the Seer opened her eyes. Her eyes were still blank as she couldn't see anything from the real world.

Still, tears of blood were trickling out of those eyes, her face growing absolutely pale.

"What did you see?" Mist asked before gesturing to a trusted healer that she brought with her.

The healer stepped forward and started healing the old woman, but strangely enough, the blood didn't stop even under the effect of healing.

"This fate thread... Why does it go there? How can it be connected to them?! This person... No, he's not..."

The more the old woman spoke, the more restless she became as if she was going crazy. She had seen something that she absolutely shouldn't have seen. It was as if an unspoken secret was revealed to her.

"N-no! I didn't want to see this! This was not intentional! Please don't!" She suddenly roared at the top of her lungs.

Mist was confused about her sudden outburst. Was she having a panic attack? Was it just the effect of her old age or has she really seen something this scary?

"What did you see?! Tell me!" Mist exclaimed, growing just as impatient about the secret that should make this woman react like that.

Even when she had appeared in front of this old woman for the first time, this woman had been calm. This was the first time she had reacted like this. What could be more scary in this world than an Overlord for her?

"He... He is..." The old woman was pale faced as she started speaking, ignoring the blood that was trickling out of her eyes without stopping.

However, before the old woman could continue, she felt something strange. The surroundings went into absolute silence, as if time itself had stopped. Even though she couldn't see it, she could feel it clearly.

Another presence appeared in the room. A man's voice resounded in the hall, accompanied by a deep sigh.

"Sigh, you really shouldn't have seen it..." The man placed his hand on the old woman's head.

The old woman was trembling in fear but she couldn't resist in the least. At that moment, her entire existence was sucked dry from her body.

Her blank eyes soon closed as the woman lost her life as well as her soul. The pain was so gruesome that it made her let out a horrifying scream but no one heard it.

If Eren was here, he would have been stunned to see the man. He was none other than the person that Eren believed to be the Author of this world, as well as the guide that had given him the answers that he needed.

Until now, Eren believed that the only way to bring the author down was by using the Question Voucher. However, it was the first time that he had descended without the need of the question voucher.

The man destroyed the soul of the woman thoroughly so that the thing she had learned couldn't be exposed even by accident.

After killing the old woman, he turned around. The Mist surrounding him disappeared as his body started dispersing.

He looked in the direction of the Mythical Hero Academy, his expressions being unreadable. Soon, he completely disappeared and the time started flowing normally.

With the flow of time recovering, Mist came to her senses. However, all that she saw were the lifeless eyes of the old woman whose body started tilting to the right.

With a thud, she fell on the ground. Mist reached out her hand, only to find out that her heartbeat had stopped as well. The woman was absolutely dead.

"Just what did you see that scared you to death? Just what is that person's fate?" Mist looked at the lifeless old woman.

She didn't feel as sad about the woman's death as she did about the fact that she died before being able to answer her.

Even though Mist didn't know what this old woman saw, she did learn something just as important. It was that the person who kidnapped her daughter was in the Mythical Hero Academy itself.

She stood up, still unable to take her eyes off the old woman. She still didn't understand if it was just her misconception or if there was really another presence here.

"Two of you can stay behind and bury her properly before returning. As for the rest, you're coming with me. We are returning home."
