Report

Return to Alcatraz!

It had become an obsession in Kieran's mind.

The bronze coffin was still on the island.

When Fenkes had mentioned that he had gotten something from the coffin, Kieran's heart had been burning with eagerness.

However, when he thought about the Dark Star Society, the fire in Kieran's heart was extinguished.

He had seen how powerful the Dark Star Society was.

Any random member of the Dark Star Society was no match for him.

Not to mention, they were heavily guarded Alcatraz.

Kieran could already imagine what would happen to him if he went to Alcatraz without any invitation or permission.

He might not have to face death for Nikorei's sake.

However, he would have to be imprisoned.

If he acted rashly, his relationship with Nikorei would deteriorate, which would affect his Main Mission.

He could not do it!

Kieran shook his head as he had already come to this conclusion.

"I'm sorry, I can't do anything about it.

"When the Dark Star Society first appeared on Alcatraz Island, it was already not a place I could touch. Even though the bronze coffin is very attractive to me, I know my own strength."

Kieran said apologetically.

"It's okay.

I just wanted to give it a try.

The Dark Star Society is stationed on Alcatraz? "

Fenkes could not hide the disappointment and shock on his face.

He did not seem to know about the Dark Star Society's presence in Alcatraz.

Before Kieran could ask, Fenkes began to explain.

"After I woke up, I was taken away from Alcatraz by the government. I don't know what happened after that. I tried my best to investigate the situation on Alcatraz, but every time I did, I failed. So it's the Dark Star Society … No wonder!

Even though I've only just joined the circle, I've heard about one of the six major societies, the Dark Star Society! "

Fenkes shook his head with a bitter smile.

Six major societies?

Weren't they the five major societies?

Dark Star, Night Demon, Unicorn, White Deer, Polaris …

Kieran recited the names of the associations in his mind.

He wanted to make sure that he did not remember wrongly.

In fact, during his conversation with Simones. The man had mentioned the five major societies more than once, so Kieran had already memorized them.

However, Finks had casually mentioned the six major organizations. That kind of casual expression, on the other hand, made him seem exceptionally confident and didn't seem like he was joking.

Is there something wrong with Fenkes's information?

Or?

Kieran was puzzled.

However, he still maintained a calm expression on his face as he quietly listened to Fenkes.

However, the doubts in his heart grew bigger and bigger.

He had been waiting for the other party to find him.

However, his appearance was too much of a coincidence.

After the assassination attempt by the Hatch Heresy Cult, the real leader of the Hatch Heresy Cult had appeared.

Moreover, he appeared as if he had obtained the benefits of the bronze coffin.

It was as if she was eager for him to know.

If it was him. In the face of someone who could be considered as an acquaintance, but certainly not a close friend, would he tell the other party everything?

The answer was no.

Kieran couldn't be that calm.

Because the consequences of such calmness might very well be something he couldn't accept.

What would happen when greed and jealousy were combined?

Blood and slaughter.

Of course, he could not rule out the possibility that Fenkes was being honest. He might have truly trusted Kieran, but Kieran was just being petty.

It wasn't hard to tell.

Time passed.

An hour later, Fenkes stood up and said goodbye to Kieran after asking him about the mystical world.

Kieran sent him off with his eyes.

Kieran didn't hide anything from Fenkes. Kieran did not hide it.

Although he had learned most of this knowledge from Nikorei and Simones, as long as it was something he could say, he would. Fenkes expressed his gratitude.

The joy on his face was genuine, as if he had finally gotten an answer.

However, that didn't mean that Kieran had given up on his suspicions.

That didn't mean that Kieran had given up on his suspicions though.

He needed to verify it in the truest sense of the word before he could confirm its authenticity.

What if his suspicions were wrong?

Kieran would use his actions to express his apologies.

If Fenkes was right …

Then everything would be worth pondering.

Kieran watched as Fenkes disappeared into the distance, then turned around and headed back to the Celestial Garden.

...

When Kieran and Simones returned to 1st Black Street with the Potion Potion Platform, he resumed his usual routine for the past week.

Other than sleep and food, Kieran spent the rest of his time learning Potionology from Simones.

This went on for almost two weeks.

During this time, Nikorei had only called Kieran to say that she needed to extend her return time.

She didn't even give Kieran a chance to speak. She hung up the phone.

Kieran couldn't confirm the doubts in his heart.

Kieran didn't ask anyone else about the five major societies and the six major societies.

It was a secret for now. He kept it in his heart.

That didn't stop him though. Kieran was learning from Simones.

After two weeks of learning, Kieran realized that Simones was quite accomplished in Potionology. He wasn't just an average Potionology expert like Simones had said.

When he thought about how Nikorei and Simones were friends, everything seemed reasonable.

A tiger wouldn't associate with a sheep.

The strong wouldn't surround themselves with the weak.

Even if Simones seemed weak, it was only because he hadn't seen his strong side.

"This is sandalwood. It's made from the dried core of a sandalwood tree. Just light it up and you can calm your mind. If you combine it with some other ingredients, you can even get the effects of exorcism and healing.

Dried alfalfa can be used as rations. It doesn't taste good, but it can fill your stomach.

Hibiscus. This is good stuff. If you're mentally exhausted, you'll need it.

And this … "

Kieran followed Simones through the garden that Simones had converted into a Potionology Garden. Every time they passed a special plant, Simones would stop and tell Kieran about it.

Every time Simones told him about it, Kieran would receive a notification from the system.

[Potionology Experience has increased a little through your guidance …]

That was why Kieran was never tired of it.

He was looking forward to [Potionology] appearing in his skill column.

That was why when Ferad appeared with another person and interrupted his learning session, Kieran was not happy. He frowned unconsciously.

However, Kieran knew that the spirit butler would not appear with another person for no reason.

Kieran's gaze landed on the person.

The man was in his forties. His skin was tanned, and his hands were full of calluses. He looked strong, but his back was a little hunched.

Laborers like him could be seen everywhere at the train station and the docks.

However, the fact that he could see Ferad proved that he was no ordinary person.

Even if Simones wanted to see Ferad, he would need the help of a potion.

"Are you Hon. 2567?

Dr. Fenkes is in danger. He needs your help! "

The man said as soon as he saw Kieran.

Kieran furrowed his brows even harder.
