The Crane's Cry Reaches the Ninth Heaven: The Puppet Master's Strategist

Fast-paced + no male lead + strong female lead + twist after twist

In our final confrontation, she disguised herself as an apparition of our mother, trying to make me lay down my sword.

"Elder Sister, come home with me..." Tears filled her eyes as she tried to beguile me.

Clear-headed, I drove my sword through her heart. Blood stained her skirt.

"You silly girl. I stopped believing in illusions a long time ago."

The body in my arms was growing cold. A tear fell onto her bloodstained lashes.

A shout rang out behind me: "Tower Master! She even killed her own sister!"

I wiped away my tears and sneered. "You're next."
