Inside the wagon, Kieran and John were sitting opposite each other.
Kieran was in deep thought with his eyes closed.
John was sizing up Kieran from top to bottom with a curious gaze.
"Am I worthy of your curiosity?"
Kieran took in a deep breath and opened his eyes helplessly.
Given Kieran's Intuition, even with his eyes closed, being sized up by someone from such a distance was no different than swinging a burning hot iron in front of his eyes.
It was eye-catching and hot.
If it was someone else, Kieran could still use other methods to teach them manners.
But John?
John was one of his best friends among the natives.
It seemed like Kieran couldn't do that.
Kieran had always been tolerant towards his friends.
"Em.
It's my first time seeing the God's Child … I'm sorry. "
Our police chief nodded, then gave an apologetic smile.
Even though he had come in contact with the mystical realm that common people didn't know about, when he saw how Kieran expelled the plague with a wave of his hand, it still shocked him beyond words.
His view of the world that was shattered was shattered again.
If it wasn't for John's occupation that granted him an extremely strong heart, he would have collapsed a long time ago.
However, although he didn't collapse, it was inevitable that he was curious.
"How did you do it?"
John couldn't help but ask.
"It's complicated."
Kieran said.
He couldn't tell John anything else.
Even if John was John's best friend.
Obviously, John respected Kieran's decision. He shrugged and shifted the topic.
"Then, are we going to Wayne Manor this time?"
John looked at Kieran with his glimmering eyes.
John was willing to respect Kieran's decision and at the same time, John hoped that Kieran would respect his occupation and not do anything that would put him in a difficult spot.
One needed to know that John knew the grudge between Kieran and the Wayne family very well.
"Don't worry!
I don't like to kill the innocent!
"The reason I'm heading to Wayne Manor is because the plague that broke out earlier is related to one of the Wayne family members."
"Besides, if I really wanted to do something, why would I bring you with me?"
Kieran smiled at John.
This was not a lie, but it was not comprehensive enough.
But John did not know.
When the chief officer heard that it was related to the plague, his attention was completely captivated. He asked out of instinct, "That bastard created the plague?"
"There's not much difference. The other party is involved."
"Also …"
"Before this, including the incident at the police station, all the arrangements against St. Barro School should be the work of the culprit as well — for those things."
In his words, Kieran deliberately downplayed Reed.
It was the old nun's request.
Kieran did not comment on this point.
He had expected the old nun's kindness.
The dead Reed was no longer important to him. What he wanted to know now was everything about Ancilanco.
Therefore, Wayne Manor became extremely important to him.
Of course, it wasn't just Wayne Manor, Kieran had also sent his men to investigate all the suspicious spots in the city.
However, the focus was still on Wayne Manor.
What was the safest place?
The most dangerous place was the safest.
Given how Gateli liked to exploit the weaknesses of others, he must have known all that.
Gateli who thought he was smart, based on Kieran's guess, there was a high possibility that his real hiding place was in the huge Wayne Manor.
Of course, it included his ally, the Revival Society.
"Who is it?
Which bastard is it? "
John asked directly after being attracted by Kieran's words.
John who went through the plague himself knew how dangerous it was last night. If it wasn't for Kieran's sudden intervention, the city would have turned into a miserable hell on earth.
John really wanted to kill the person who created such a miserable scene with a single shot.
"Gateli."
Kieran answered.
"Gateli?
Is it the heir that I know of? "
John asked after being stunned for a while.
"Yes."
Kieran nodded.
"But he …"
"Faked his death?!"
John quickly reacted to the situation.
Then, the chief officer became even more furious.
From John's point of view, Gateli who faked his death to escape and then created the plague had become cunning and wicked beyond redemption.
So, when John arrived at Wayne Manor, he was very cooperative with Kieran.
"Welcome, Chief Officer John!"
At the entrance of the rebuilt manor, a middle-aged man and a few young men welcomed John.
After going through multiple changes, Wayne Family's reputation wasn't what it used to be.
In the past, whenever John visited, it would be the servants who welcomed him and not the direct family members.
But the necessary manners were still there.
At least they greeted Kieran who was beside John with utmost respect.
"Who is this gentleman?"
The middle-aged man asked.
The young men behind him couldn't hold back their curiosity.
After all, Kieran's outfit was quite eye-catching under the sun.
Aside from the others, the hooded mantle alone would attract a hundred percent of people's attention on the street.
"Hon. 2567.
Or you can call me His Highness God's Child. "
John turned aside and purposely maintained a humble tone.
"M-God's Child?"
The middle-aged man stuttered right away, sweat broke out on his forehead.
The few young men who were sizing up Kieran with curious gazes turned into utter shock.
Wayne Manor was close to the city, they knew what happened in the city like the back of their hand.
The appearance of the plague and the removal of it.
The appearance of the God's Child from the Church of Dawn.
Tens of thousands of people gathered.
Each and every incident caused the Wayne Family to tremble in fear.
Why did Wayne Family rise?
Because they broke the shackles of the Church of Dawn.
Now that Wayne Family was in decline and the Church of Dawn had a God's Child, what would Wayne Family face?
In fact, since dawn, the family had called for an internal meeting to discuss how to deal with the God's Child.
However, without the real family leader, everyone was wrangling and until now, there wasn't a real outcome. Yet, Kieran came knocking.
"Your Highness, good day."
The middle-aged man recollected his thoughts and forced himself to calm down.
The young man behind him even ran towards the manor.
Kieran saw it but he didn't stop it.
Because …
No need!
Kieran wasn't the newbie who entered the dungeon for the first time and couldn't breathe after being pressured by the colossal Wayne Family.
The colossal Wayne Family looked like before.
But now, it was extremely tiny.
The young man wasn't worthy of Kieran's attention anymore.
