The wooden door was locked and had a thick layer of dust covering it Judging by the dust’s thickness, it was obvious that the place had been uninhabited for at least two months.


“Open it,” Adrian said to Mya as he stepped back.


Instantly, Mya broke the lock with a single punch. She then pushed the door open, revealing the dense musky smell from


within


The room was covered in spiderwebs. Stacks of sealed books, uniforms, and some furniture lay haphazardly all over the place. The lights were still functional, so Mya turned it on and cleared up the cobwebs,


“You can come in now,” Mya said.


After Adrian entered, he noticed how the room was pretty small–with only a desk, a bookshelf, a cabinet, and a bed. There were old newspaper cuttings from some decades ago plastered to the wall, mast of them had since been rendered illegible.


“This place is a mess. What clues are we supposed to find here?” Mya wiped the tip of her nose to remove some dust.


Adrian went further in, scanning his surroundings before picking up a sealed book. Flipping through a few pages, he said, ” You’re free to leave if you can’t stand the filth.


“I wouldn’t dare do such a thing. Come on, I’ll help you. The bookshelf is completely empty with not a single book in sight, plus the bed only has a tag for a blanket. The table’s bare too, so there’s nothing


for us to see there”


Adrian poked around the bed, then tried to read the newspaper cuttings.


‘Maybe Kayn Look everything with him before he left, he thought.


However, he soon found an article with a handwritten note written in very delicate handwriting.


“Swallowston, St. Elmer’s Church, Xander.”


Adrian frowned and said, “Hey, over here.”


Mya covered her hair and walked over to take a look.


“So it’s true… You don’t think Kayn has been studying prophecies here the whole time, do you? He’s probably the one who wrote those words after learning about them from somewhere. Was St. Elmer’s Church the first place you ever met Kayn?”


“The prophecy probably gave him same land of hint that the person was going to show up there, which would explain why he waited for me there. But what’s his goal?”


Adrian could not explain everything away, which made the whole matter even more mysterious.


“If it’s a prophecy, why would Kayn look for me? Was it purely to tell Father that his son would become the leader of Wyvern Prak? But that doesn’t make sense.”


Helplessly, Mya said, “There are many things about Kayn we don’t know. For example, what sort of prophecies was he researching? Is lie a friend or an enemy?”


“We’re going to have to meet his ex–wife,” Adrian said.


Mya nodded. “You’re right. We should be able to find more answers by meeting her. However, I’m worried she may have no idea about any of this. By the way, would you lilur me to send a few men to locate Kayn’s whereabouts?”


“If he wants to remain hidden, you won’t be able to find him. Instead, you’ll just be letting him know that we’re onto him. The key right now isn’t to find him, but to locate the source of the prophecy”


My thought about it and agreed that this was their only option at that moment.


“Let’s hope Mr. Bowen has something for us, but we should still meet with Kayn’s ex–wife.”


“Get Mr. Bowen to send us her address and information. We’ll depart shortly. Meanwhile, look around nearby and see if there’s anywhere worth looking into.”
