...Clark laying his hand on the little girl.

This caused the brighter light. With that, the little girl stopped shaking and finally opened her eyes.

"Claire!!", Her mom screamed and hugged her with tears in her eyes.

"Thank you! It's not yet time for her pills, if you hadn't showed up, I wonder what I would have done!", Her mom said now looking up to the persons who had healed her daughter. Only then did she realize that one of the persons who just healed her daughter was Miguel.

"Lord Miguel!", She said in shock and moved back with her daughter in fear.

Seeing this, Miguel looked at Clark and then turned to her.

"I just healed your daughter, why are you still scared of me?", He asked as he walked closer.

"Please, you people already took my husband, just leave I and my daughter alone!", She pleaded with tears in her eyes.

Miguel understood that Mercury must have been there with some men when he killed master Xenguy and so he could understand the woman's fear and reason for such style of action.

"Miss I mean no harm, I just came to ask a few questions and probably look around for a bit, so I can bring up solid evidence against your husband's killer.", Miguel explained.

"Aren't you the worse among them?", She added and then dropped on her knees.

"My Lord please! My Lord please leave I and my daughter alone!", She cried.

"Miss! All I need is your permission to search your house. You can come with us while we search. Once we are done, we'll leave you and your daughter alone.", Miguel explained.

She continued crying still refusing to let Miguel and Clark go in.

Seeing this, Miguel could deduce that she has been told to keep quiet.

"Alright Miss we'll have to go in on our own!", Miguel said as he looked at Clark who understood as well.

After speaking, Miguel walked into the house.

"Stop!", She said trying to hold Miguel but Clark held her.

As soon as Miguel got into the house, he saw some bags on the floor near the doorway; she was planning to leave the house.

"Clark bring her in!", Miguel commanded..

With that said Clark carried her in as the little girl followed.

"What are these? Who's behind this?", Miguel asked but she said nothing still.

Miguel quickly opened the first bag and saw some clothes. He turned to the second and saw some more clothes.

"You can't make use of these clothes alone!", Miguel said changing his gaze from the bags to her face, then back to the bags.

Afterwards, he walked up to her and said: "tell me the truth? Is your husband still alive?"

The woman suddenly grew angry and began to yell: "what's wrong with you people?! After killing my husband, you come to my house to humiliate me!"

Suddenly, her daughter began to cough violently.

"Claire!", She cried as she ran towards her.

In Quaila, there were some deadly diseases that required either a number of healers, some special pills or bathing in Merlin's fountain to get rid of. Unfortunately for others who weren't Quailians, this treatment wasn't cheap to them.

Before their eyes, this woman rushed inside the house and brought with her a cup of water and a pill which she gave her daughter and the coughing gradually came to a stop.

After watching this, Clark immediately walked towards the bag and picked it up, then left it to fall with a thud.

Clang!

"There's something in it My Lord!", He added.

Miguel who also heard the sound of the coins at the bottom of the bag, walked up to the bag and emptied it.

"What's this?!", Miguel asked as he turned to the woman.

"Were you paid to kill your husband?!", He asked now thinking about Mercury's style of action

The woman who stood there, earlier speechless because although she had been tensed ever since Miguel started paying attention to the bag, but she still had hoped that he wouldn't check beyond the surface of the bag.....
