A police cruiser left Saint Brilliant High School.
Oaker was the driver and Lee, the Funeral Society member, changed out of his mourning attire and sat in the front passenger seat.
After removing his mask, Lee looked like a common middle-aged man, the kind that one would forget after a single glance. However, Oaker would size up the person beside him with the corner of his eyes from time to time.
30 years of detective experience allowed Oaker to clearly feel how scary Lee was.
However, most of Oaker's attention was placed on the back seat.
Kieran was sitting sideways, leaning on his big backpack.
He looked like he was dozing off but a slight movement from time to time was enough to send shivers down one's spine.
If the Funeral Society member beside him was considered dangerous, then Kieran behind him would be …
A natural disaster!
A venomous viper in hiding or a typhoon that could ravage the land at any moment, which one was more dangerous?
Even a kid knew it.
In fact, not only Oaker had such thoughts, even Lee, a member of the Funeral Society shared the same thought.
It might even be more real.
Lee, who possessed powers that common men didn't have and his senses were beyond common men's reach, felt like there was an ancient fiend behind him, spying on him.
The feeling was unbearable.
If he could, he would jump out of the car.
However, he had to hold it in.
As for Kieran?
He didn't seem to feel anything.
He was emanating a faint devil aura while checking the spoils of war from the Flurry Blade Ghost and Lee's so-called reward.
The former was a specially designed Chinese kitchen knife.
It wasn't big but it was heavy. The blade was separated into two parts, the front part was a normal sharp edge and the back part was a sawtooth edge.
[Name: Blood Blade Flurry Blade]
[Type: Blade Weapon]
[Rarity: Magic]
[Attack: Strong]
[Attribute: 1. Lifesteal lvl 1; 2. Slicing lvl 1]
[Effect: None]
[Prerequisite: Strength C +, Sharp Weapon, Special Weapon (Master)]
[Remark: Not only will you need Strength to wield it, you will also need some special techniques. Which means you will need to put in more effort but it will not disappoint!]
...
[Lifesteal lvl 1: 5% of the damage dealt will be converted into your HP (Must be a living being with flesh and blood)]
[Slicing lvl 1: When attacking with the sawtooth edge, there is a certain percentage to damage items of Magic rank.]
…
Without a doubt, this was a high-level magical weapon.
If it wasn't for the special requirements, the price would probably be even higher.
Although it was nothing to Kieran, it did not mean that it could not be sold for a good price.
Kieran put it aside and looked at the rewards from Funeral Society.
Apart from the notes, there were two other things.
They were all medicines, but they were not stored in test tubes. Instead, they were sealed with wax.
[Name: Exorcism]
[Type: Medicine]
[Rarity: Excellent]
Attribute: Create a smell that low-level demons hate to disperse them. Lasts for 6 hours.
Prerequisites: None
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remark: A medicinal pill crafted from an ancient recipe by the Funeral Society. To use it, you only need to peel off the wax coating.]
…
[Name: Invisible Medicine]
[Type: Medicine]
[Rarity: Excellent]
[Attribute: Covers your scent, making you invisible in front of the lower demons. Lasts for 5 minutes.]
Prerequisites: None
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remark: A medicinal pill crafted from an ancient recipe by the Funeral Society. To use it, you only need to peel off the wax coating.]
...
"A system other than Potionology?"
Without peeling off the wax coating, Kieran could only make guesses based on the remark.
Basic [Potionology] couldn't allow Kieran to determine the difference between the medicine and the Potionology system that he had learned before through the wax coating.
However, based on the information that he had gotten, the current dungeon world seemed to be different from the Mystical Studies system that he had.
Of course, some things remained the same.
The application of power.
The existence of firearms.
Other than the so-called fiends, the dungeon world was a modern one.
Kieran looked at the buildings on both sides of the road, the cars on the road and the pedestrians on the street.
However, even the flap of a butterfly's wings could cause a hurricane from afar, let alone the fiends, which only existed in the legends.
At least from Saint Brilliant High School to the outskirts of the city, Kieran had sensed the gloomy and cold aura from the piles of bodies more than once.
It seemed like those places had become the hunting grounds of some fiends.
After Kieran memorized a few places, he turned his attention to Lee who was sitting in front.
The Funeral Society member instantly felt Kieran's gaze, his body shivered a little before he turned around and asked with an attentive face, "Do you have any orders for me?"
"Why are there so many fiends attracted to Saint Brilliant High School?"
Kieran asked straightforwardly when he saw how eager Lee was.
"This …"
"It's because of the Jar of Sealing Fiends!
I don't know if it was a Jar of Sealing Fiends that was passed down from ancient times or medieval times but it was brought back to the school by the headmaster of Saint Brilliant High School during an unexpected auction. The headmaster passed away a year ago due to illness but the seal on the Jar of Sealing Fiends loosened three weeks ago and the aura it emanated attracted many fiends! "
Lee hesitated for a while but when he felt the increasing brutality from Kieran, he quickly spoke.
Kieran nodded in satisfaction.
From the moment he entered the car, he purposely shrouded Lee with a layer of devil aura.
His goal was to make Lee be dominated by fear.
Everything went smoothly without a hitch.
Although Lee was stronger than a common man, there was a limit to how strong he was. Under the shroud of the devil aura, as time went by, Lee had lost the strength to fight back.
After all, one shouldn't expect a person who liked to play politics to have a tenacious mind.
What they were best at was compromising and trading.
"Jar of Sealing Fiends?"
Kieran pretended to be in deep thought.
He had no idea what was inside the Jar of Sealing Fiends, all he could tell from the name and the number of fiends gathered that it was something beneficial to fiends.
However, that wasn't enough for Kieran to accurately state the name of the item.
So, he prolonged his tone and waited for Lee's answer.
"There are too many things that could be inside the Jar of Sealing Fiends, even the Funeral Society couldn't accurately deduce what it is but judging from the number of fiends gathered, it should be some kind of medicinal pellet that is beneficial to fiends or the flesh and blood of some high fiends!"
Lee replied with a bitter smile.
His words were uncertain but it allowed Kieran to have a general understanding of the Jar of Sealing Fiends.
It was a container that contained something with a seal.
"It's like a treasure chest!"
Kieran commented.
Then, his interest in the Jar of Sealing Fiends grew.
Based on what Lee said, the Jar of Sealing Fiends shouldn't only contain something beneficial to fiends, it should contain something beneficial to humans as well.
However, before Kieran could say anything.
The Funeral Society member was the first to speak.
"Master Bird of Death, please don't make things difficult for me. My authority isn't enough for me to know more about the whereabouts of the Jar of Sealing Fiends. In fact, if it wasn't for the Jar of Sealing Fiends appearing in my jurisdiction, I wouldn't even be involved in this matter. You've seen the result of my involvement. A hunter died in an accident and I had to send out special assistance for the investigation … It's not a good thing for me."
Kieran looked at Lee who was smiling bitterly.
The lack of information made it hard for him to tell if Lee was telling the truth.
So, Kieran was ready to continue pressuring Lee.
However, right at that moment, concentrated gunshots came from afar.
Bang Bang Bang!
That direction …
