“The future?“!
Kayn heaved a sigh of relief and seemed to relax a little. With a smile, he said, “Surely there’s no need for all this if talking about the future’s all you want, sir. I was able to predict you becoming the legate more than a decade ago, which means I’m able to predict your future now. However, you’re aware this is a secret, aren’t you?
“I lost my legs because of that first secret 1 leaked to you.”
Kayn patted his phantom legs as he spoke.
Seeing this, Adrian said, “You’ve mentioned multiple times how you’re able to predict my future. But the question now is are you able to predict your own future?”
Kayn was slightly startled, clearly not expecting Adrian to ask that. He pondered for a long time as though he did not have an
answer.
“That’s a very good question, sir. In fact, I have predicted my own future not too long ago. However, I can’t tell you what I
surmised,”
Kayn wanted to maintain his air of mystery for Adrian to believe that he did indeed possess powers. Yet, it would seem that Adrian knew a few things Kayn was oblivious to, causing the latter to suffer an awkward disposition.
With a smile, Adrian said, “Kayn, Kayn Kayn… I may not have the powers to predict the future as you do, but I do have the powers to control your future. Isn’t that right?”
“Sure, you can kill me with a single order. However, have you forgotten that I’m your benefactor? Do you think you would’ve become the legate if I hadn’t told your father about it?”
“Are you saying I should be thanking you for me becoming the legate?” Adrian smiled.
“That depends on how you wish to move forward with this matter. I gave you a wooden doll a few days ago, an
days ago, and that wooden doll depicts who the next legate will be. You’ve deciphered who it’s going to be, haven’t you?
“This is a situation that only I can help you resolve since your future doesn’t seem too bright,” Kayn continued.

Kayn was trying to mold himself into a character filled with mystery. He wanted to make Adrian think he was a genius astrologer.
However, this time, Adrian merely smiled as he sipped his cup of tea. “I heard that a book was auctioned off to the outlanders at Fowler House a few years ago… Something called Heroes of Wyvern Peak, I believe.
“Can you help me predict where that book is right now, Kayn?”
Adrian’s sudden question caused Kayn’s heart to thump. His expression changed as he looked at Adrian’s face, his emotions. constantly shifting as he said, “I can only make rough predictions rather
than tell you where it is at which time. I’m sorry but I can’t help you find your book”
Adrian put down his cup with a smile and slowly said, “It’s all right, Kayn. I may not have found the real book, but I have, however, found a handwritten copy of it.”
“R–Really?” Kayn’s expression turned stiff.
Adrian observed Kayn’s expression the entire time and was clearly able to see the latter’s face twitch
He smiled once more. “I’ve visited the Gardner residence and found a body at their villa’s rear court. The body belonged to Chase’s father, but one would wonder why a bondly would be left inside the villa despite the person having been dead for so
many years.
“I’m quite close with Nadine, the granddaughter of the deceased. So, do you think you can help me hold a service for her grandfather?”
