"Give me a medium rare Gerrard steak and a bottle of Surrey Winery's table wine!" Connor, who was disguised as a red-haired young man, put down the menu in Norwich restaurant on Pasalle Street and said to the waiter beside him.
"Yes sir, the dishes you ordered will take about ten minutes to be ready. Please wait patiently!" After recording Connor's request, the waiter bowed slightly and left.
After ordering, Connor casually looked at the scenery outside. He was now on the second floor of Norwich restaurant. Beside him was a large floor-to-ceiling window. Looking up, more than half of Pasalle Street fell into Connor's line of sight.
Connor's eyes faintly landed on a pharmacy named Reynolds not far from his line of sight. That was the address mentioned by Kalarov in the letter – Pasalle Street 9. Because it was very close to Rand Street where Connor's apartment was located, Connor was more or less familiar with Pasalle Street. Although he couldn't remember what kind of store it used to be, Connor was sure that it wasn't Reynolds' pharmacy a month ago!
Just like what Connor said to Falca before, Connor didn't intend to break in directly. As a spirit wizard and alchemist, Connor had his own means to spy on Reynolds' pharmacy!
"Sir, your dishes are ready. The Gerrard steak is three shillings and two pence. The table wine from Surrey Winery is two shillings and three pence. Plus the 10% service fee, the total is six shillings and one pence." The waiter placed the fragrant steak and opened red wine on the table in front of Connor and handed the bill to him.
Connor didn't have the time and energy to calculate with the waiter. He took out seven shillings from his wallet and threw it to the waiter. Then, he waved his hand and motioned for the waiter to leave.
Seeing that Connor was so generous, the waiter naturally didn't care about anything else. He took the money and bowed to Connor, then turned his head to serve the other customers with a smile.
After casually cutting open the juicy Gerrard steak that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, Connor took out a small Rubik's cube the size of a finger from his space ring. Then, when no one in the restaurant was paying attention to him, he threw the Rubik's cube toward the floor-to-ceiling window beside him.
A strange scene happened. The Rubik's cube that was thrown by Connor seemed to have magical powers. Not only was it not blocked by the floor-to-ceiling window, but it also silently went through the window and fell on the busy Pasalle Street. The Rubik's cube fell on the grass on the side of the street without making any sound. Then, it dived into the ground.
After doing all this, Connor, who had cut the Gerrard steak into small pieces, put a piece of steak into his mouth.
Feeling the wonderful feeling of the steak in his mouth, a faint smile appeared on Connor's face. In the next second, a mental strength was released from the Rubik's cube hidden under Pasalle Street to check on Reynolds' Pharmacy.
The Rubik's cube that he had just thrown out was an alchemy item that Connor had specially refined for himself. The only function of this item was to establish a strange connection with Connor's mental strength. Although the mental strength seemed to be released from the Rubik's cube, in fact, it was released from Connor's Spirit Sea. The purpose of Connor was to confuse "Kalarov" who might be hiding in the dark in Reynolds' Pharmacy. As long as this Mr. Kalarov's mental strength didn't exceed Connor's level, he would be able to trace the existence of the Rubik's cube and not discover Connor, who was sitting less than 100 meters away from Reynolds' Pharmacy and eating steak in a restaurant.
As soon as Connor released his mental strength, in the back hall of Reynolds' Pharmacy, the fat uncle who was holding a cup of coffee and drinking mellow coffee narrowed his small eyes into slits. But what was surprising was that he didn't take any action and allowed Connor's mental strength to smoothly sneak into Reynolds' Pharmacy.
Connor, who was eating steak in Norwich Hotel, carefully explored the pharmacy with his mental strength. As far as the current situation was concerned, although Connor didn't know whether this Mr. Kalarov was in this Reynolds' Pharmacy, he still did his utmost to be on guard just in case.
After not finding anything in the hundreds of medicine cabinets in the front hall of Reynolds' Pharmacy, Connor's mental strength began to extend into the back hall of Reynolds' Pharmacy. However, as soon as his mental strength entered the back hall, although he didn't find any clues, Connor's sharp spiritual sense allowed him to feel an abnormality in the back hall.
This abnormal feeling made Connor, who was already very vigilant, even more alert. He quietly took out his silver pendant from his space ring and prepared to increase his mental strength at any time.
Connor's mental strength covered the back hall of Reynolds' Pharmacy. Not a single corner of the room could escape Connor's prying eyes. However, as he went deeper into the examination, although he didn't find anything, the abnormal feeling that Reynolds' Pharmacy gave him became more obvious.
"Eh?"
Just as Connor was about to increase his mental strength to find out what the abnormality in Reynolds' Pharmacy was, his mental strength suddenly sensed a middle-aged man's voice.
Connor's expression changed when he heard the voice, but before he could do anything, he felt that his mental strength was under attack. A mysterious firebird covered in purple flames darted out from the corner of the room. The firebird opened its mouth and let out a silent shriek that attacked Connor's mental strength. Although the shriek was silent, Connor, who was eating steak in the restaurant, felt pain in his eyes.
"Mental Attack Magic Item!"
The appearance of the purple firebird caused a name to appear in Connor's mind. Due to the runes in the ancient book, Connor was already prepared for the possibility that Mr. Kalarov and his companion might be an alchemist. However, after discovering that his mental strength was being probed, Connor was more or less surprised that this person would use a rank 2 mental attack item. After all, refining a mental attack magic item not only required the alchemist to be very skilled in alchemy, but it also required the alchemist to have a deep understanding of mental strength.
