After working with Marguerite for such a long time, the two of them had gone through a lot together. However, Connor had never revealed the fact that he was a member of the Secret Society to Marguerite. However, Connor didn't know if Marguerite had ever suspected his identity. She had told him so much about the Secret Society today. Could it be that Marguerite had guessed the relationship between him and the Secret Society?
"Sigh …" Connor sighed softly and shook his head slowly. His top priority now wasn't to deal with Marguerite, but to figure out who was messing with him. If he didn't figure it out, he would be in the open while the enemy was in the dark. The enemy could do whatever they wanted to do. There was no such thing as being a thief for a thousand days.
After solving the urgent matter at hand, Connor could finally relax and figure out what Marguerite wanted to tell him. Even if Marguerite found out that he was a member of the Secret Society, what could she do? Putting aside the fact that Marguerite was deeply involved with him, Connor didn't believe that Marguerite would dare to report him to the Church!
After making up his mind, Connor carefully erased all traces of him in this secret hideout. He walked out of the courtyard and secretly returned to his apartment at No. 16 Lander Street in the East District.
"Crack!"
In order to not attract attention, Connor took some remote paths. It took him some time to get back to his apartment. He took out the key from his pocket and inserted it into the keyhole of the door. Connor opened the door and walked back to his familiar home.
Connor, who had returned to his home, was undoubtedly relaxed. He took off his black cloak and placed it on the hanger. After completing this routine action, Connor, who seemed to have discovered nothing, narrowed his eyes and murderous intent surfaced in his eyes. He immediately grasped the Castile Staff in his hand. However, just when Connor was about to activate the Castile Staff and unleash a thunderous strike, a slightly weary and aged voice entered his ears. Suddenly, Connor's eyes were fixed on the staircase in the apartment hall where no one was present. Just when he was about to activate the Castile Staff to unleash a thunderous strike, a slightly weary and aged voice entered his ears.
"Young Master Connor, it's me!"
Connor, who was about to release a mental attack, froze on the spot when he heard the familiar voice. Then, he looked at the seemingly empty staircase with a murderous gaze that quickly turned into disbelief. A second later, under Connor's astonished gaze, a stooped little old man appeared on the staircase.
Connor couldn't help but be a little surprised to see the old man whom he had just seen on the screen of Margaret's Pearl of Images appear in front of him so quickly. Regardless of whether it was Connor Ferguson or Connor Ferguson, he quickly calmed himself down and kept the Castile Staff in his hand back into his spatial ring. After finishing all this quickly, a smile reappeared on Connor's face. He politely bowed to the stooped old man and said, "Sir, I'm sorry, but I'm sorry.
"Butler Viktor, nice to see you again! How is Teacher Reyes? " In order to make his acting more realistic, Connor tried his best to make his eyes look as sincere as possible!
That's right! The seemingly ordinary old man who suddenly appeared in Connor's apartment was Old Viktor, the butler of Reyes who attacked the secret prison of the Church of the Storm in Kaiserslautern with two other people from the Secret Society, according to what Marguerite told Connor in the secret base.
Old Viktor obviously didn't care about Connor's enthusiasm. He carefully looked at Connor from head to toe, then said calmly, "Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Connor. Professor is very kind!"
After exchanging some pleasantries with Connor, Old Viktor took a deep look at Connor, then said meaningfully, "I heard that someone wanted to harm Young Master Connor, so I came here to protect Young Master Connor. Now it seems that my action was unnecessary. Young Master Connor's strength has indeed improved rapidly!"
"Thank you, Butler Viktor!" Connor ignored Old Viktor's tone and said with a wry smile, "Butler Viktor, please excuse me. I was attacked by two monsters just now, so I was a little frightened just now. I hope Butler Viktor won't blame me. Based on what you said, Butler Viktor, could it be that you know who attacked me? "
"Young Master Connor, what happened to the two monsters that attacked you?" Old Viktor's eyes flickered when he heard the word "monsters" from Connor's mouth. He didn't directly question Connor's question. Instead, he hesitated for a while before asking Connor a question.
"I killed them! Although those two monsters have strong bodies and high intelligence, they don't know any magic. I just used a little trick to get rid of them! " Compared to Old Victor's hesitation, Connor casually gave a bloody answer. Speaking until here, Connor's eyes secretly swept over Old Victor's hesitant expression. After a slight calculation in his heart, he immediately pretended to be a little regretful and said, "Don't worry, Old Victor is not going to be able to speak.
"Although it wasn't difficult to kill the two monsters, I almost couldn't capture them alive. If only I could capture them alive, I would know who was behind this!" On the surface, Kang Na displayed a pained expression, but he was secretly sizing up Old Victor's expression once again.
On the way back, Connor thought a lot. If what Marguerite said was true, and the mysterious organization that ordered the demonized knights to attack him was in cooperation with the Secret Society, there were only three possibilities for him to be attacked.
The first possibility was that his mentor, Reyes, wanted to kill him, and the mysterious organization attacked him under his instruction! The second possibility was that the mysterious organization didn't know that he was a member of the Secret Society, so they attacked him! The third possibility was that someone in the Secret Society wanted to use the mysterious organization to get rid of him!
Although Connor listed the first possibility as one of the possibilities, he knew that the probability was too low. Based on his understanding of his mentor, Reyes didn't need to spend so much effort to kill him! Therefore, after eliminating the first possibility, there were only the second and third possibilities left!
