Back at 17th Randletine Street, the closed secret room had been opened.
Two members of Death Knell were moving the gold swiftly.
The gold under the sun was dazzling and alluring, to the point that they didn't even see Kieran walk out from the shadows.
"So this is shuttling through the shadows?
What a convenient power! "
Kieran couldn't help but exclaim in admiration when he saw [Mordin's Seventh Sculpture] instantly reach his destination and recalled the shuttling process just now.
It wasn't the first time he teleported.
Once [Lionheart] was activated, he could teleport as well.
However, compared to the mysteriousness of [Lionheart] after activation, [Mordin's Seventh Sculpture] was much easier to understand.
It could be said that the shuttling process from a straight line between two points to a straight line between two points to a straight line between two points was presented before Kieran's eyes.
It was very magical.
Even Kieran who had seen a lot of magical things wouldn't deny it.
Likewise, he was more curious about Mordin's Seventh Sculpture which granted him such power.
However, no matter how curious he was, Kieran knew what he had to do at the moment.
He quietly went behind the two Death Knell members and delivered a palm strike to the back of their necks.
Pak Pak!
Two clear slaps later, the two Death Knell members passed out on the ground before they could even react.
The Frost Wolf pup that had been hiding in the shadows in the corner wagged its tail and ran out, circling around Kieran's feet.
Kieran couldn't hold back his smile as he picked up the pup and caressed its head and back.
Without any precautions, how could he really leave his temporary hideout?
But …
Kieran looked down at the two unconscious Death Knell members and recalled the scene at Bunder's house. He couldn't help but frown.
"Opening up a two-front battlefield and provoking me and Drexton at the same time isn't Death Knell's usual way of doing things.
And that bastard who impersonated me is obviously trying to provoke a war between me and Drexton!
Such methods … "
Kieran muttered to himself. His mind was thinking about Bloody Ridges, the organization that was wiped out a long time ago.
Both of them might seem different but Kieran was very familiar with their style: both of them used others and hid behind the scenes.
"Is that bastard in cahoots with the mastermind who killed me?"
Kieran wondered.
At the same time, he did not miss out on the key points that happened during this period of time, although it was covered by the continuous events, as if shrouded in layers of fog.
However, the mastermind was Kieran's forte, searching for clues in the mist.
"This is going to be interesting."
Kieran chuckled before he went back to the study room and waited patiently.
He was waiting for Drexton to bring the mastermind back.
"Knell, the mastermind was the mastermind, Drexton wasn't. and would like to, and Death" Knell.
Unfortunately, to Kieran's disappointment, the man didn't make a move.
Drexton arrived at 17th Randletine Street without any problems.
"Death Knell again!"
Drexton growled angrily when he saw the two Death Knell members.
Drexton did not like supervillains.
Not to mention the crimes committed right under his nose.
The dead Bunder and the stolen collection room had made the Fist of Justice itch to lock all Death Knell members in jail.
However, he couldn't find him at all.
The reason why Mr. Ghost, Death Knell, and Grudge Dragon made people feel helpless was because of the way they moved around without a trace.
Hu! Hu!
Drexton was gasping for air.
He hoped to use the method of deep breathing to calm himself down.
This method was very useful.
However, the most important thing was the tea in his hand.
"Thank you."
After calming down, Drexton thanked Ferris.
"You're welcome."
Ferris replied. His cold and slightly indifferent tone was almost the same as Kieran's, and the icy aura on his body seemed to be slightly stronger.
Drexton couldn't help but take a second glance at Ferris, but he didn't ask.
Everyone had their own secrets.
More and more rules were created to protect these secrets.
For example, the abilities of extraordinary individuals.
Therefore, Drexton was curious but he knew what he should do.
Despite the feeling that Ferris gave him, he felt like the supervillain, the Freezer.
Drexton had never associated Ferris with the Freezer.
Both of them were too different in terms of personality and the way they did things.
Drexton would never believe a prideful supervillain like the Freezer would willingly act as someone's butler, cook, or servant.
It was natural that Bloodman shared the same sentiment.
How could a bluffing bastard who bullied the weak and feared the strong be loyal?
"I really envy you, 2567.
You've found such a good partner in such a short period of time. "
Drexton exclaimed in admiration.
The Fist of Justice didn't think Ferris and Odork were Kieran's servants. Even though it looked like that on the surface, they were more like partners and friends.
Why would such a situation happen?
It must be that the man in front of him, whom he treated as a friend, had saved the two of them when they were in danger. Then, the two of them had no way to repay him, so they decided to follow him for life and live as servants. His friend must have tried to dissuade them several times before he finally agreed.
The friendship between men!
It was that pure!
Wasn't Kieran the same way back then?
What a beautiful youth!
Drexton couldn't help but feel excited and hot-blooded when Kieran and the others met. His gaze at Kieran was burning with passion.
"It's great to be friends with someone like you, 2567!"
Drexton said suddenly.
"Huh?"
Kieran held his teacup and looked at Drexton with a strange expression. He had no idea why Drexton would say something like that. Still, it didn't stop Kieran from starting a conversation.
"Drexton, didn't you notice something strange?"
Kieran asked.
"Something strange?
You are saying that Death Knell provoked you and me at the same time? "
Drexton was stunned for a while before reacting to the situation.
"That's just one of the points!
There's one more point, Bunder!
Why do you think Death Knell's men would kill a common collector? Just for his collection?
"Under the premise that he could steal it quietly and fight you openly, this is different from the Death Knell style that I know of."
Kieran said slowly.
It wasn't all that he guessed and deduced but it was enough for Drexton to make his move.
Just as Kieran expected, Drexton left right after he heard what Kieran said.
After making sure Drexton had left, Kieran slowly stood up from his chair and looked at the captive who impersonated him.
"You didn't show up.
I guess you have absolute confidence in him right? "
"No, no.
How can a person like you, who is good at instigating others to serve you, trust others?
Then … "
"You have absolute confidence in your own abilities!"
Coincidentally, I am quite confident in my Spirit as well! "
As Kieran spoke, he woke the captive up and looked him in the eyes.
