[She looks delighted at the breakthrough. Then her other hand jerks up so she can put a finger on his mouth.]
But no more secrets, Aoi. If you do it again, I won't speak to you for a month.
[And from the stubborn set of her lip, it's pretty clear that she means it. She's tired of getting her feelings hurt. But now that that's out of the way, she grabs hold of his hand tightly and starts walking briskly down the street, tugging him along.]
Come with me. There's something I need to show you.
[Akane doesn't say anything else for the rest of the walk through the busy streets of Aqures Ixen, until they reach their destination: the laboratory. Akane pushes right through the doors, leading her brother inside until they come to her work station. She seats herself with ladylike grace before booting up her computer. She taps at the keys, navigating through files, until she opens up the listings of known Hero jobs. She scrolls through, then taps on 'Illusionist.']
Look at this one. When I was searching the Jobs, I was looking for advanced Jobs that made use of the ones I'm already trying to master. We've both got Illusionist. It leads to Psychic and Seer. But look what else it can lead to.
[There's a third job called 'Overlord' and Akane taps on it. It brings up the list of four skills, and Akane reads the pertinent one out loud.]
Corruption: Allows to influence the minds of those using dark power or negative emotions.
[She turns her head to look at Aoi.]
So I think it's completely possible that someone might be using that power. Don't you think so too? And Illusionists can be dangerous in their own right too. Those who have Crystals of Illusion can completely change the way reality is perceived, move objects, take on the appearance of other people, even teleport across the world in the blink of an eye.
[She sits back in her chair, holding her arms as she frowns uncomfortably.]
We need to find out if any of the accused murderers have any gaps in their memories. Then we'll know if we're dealing with someone who's using mind control, or just changing their own appearance to commit the murders and frame Heroes. Both are very real possibilities.
