Adrian’s face was filled with a smile, but his smile made Rayn feel very uneasy–terrified even.
Kayn’s expression had completely changed at this point because Adrian’s words made him feel like he was going to suffer a crisis. He said, “I may be proficient in astrology, but I’m unable to help the dead pass on. You should find someone more suitable for this job.”
Adrian replied, “No worries, Kayn. However, I am curious from whom you learned your abilities. I recall a woman named Christina saying she had no idea you possessed such powers.”
“What?!”
Kayn was taken aback, while Adrian continued, “I met a girl named Shirley a few days ago. She’s a rather nice girl who’s actually here right now. She even pestered me to take her out for some sightseeing. Do you know who she is?”
Kayn turned pale and trembled, no longer able to remain calm at this point.
“Wh–What are you doing?” he asked.
“Oh! It’s not me who’s going to do anything. It’s you. Are you aware of the times we live in right now? Are you aware of how advanced technology is? Do you know what science is?”
Adrian asked one question after another. However, Kayn could only stare at him with his mouth agape.
Adrian continued, “You used to be a professor at Southeast University, so you should know more about science than me. According to scientists, nobody is able to predict the future. Even if there was such a person, they must’ve gone through all kinds of complex and scientific calculations, coupled with a stroke of luck.
“Why don’t I put it this way… Being able to predict the future is nothing more than a coincidence. More accurately, luck, correct?”
Adrian explained all this with a smile. Kayn started to tremble and cold sweat poured down his face. Yet, Adrian did not stop spraking
“There’s someone that comes to my mind right now. A time traveler who was able to jump in and out of various points in time. However, he once got caught in the middle of a battlefield. Honestly, I think he’s no different from me right now, having to rely purely on luck to get out of danger.
“Now tell me, are you still going to continue to claim you’re able to predict the future?”
Suddenly, Adrian’s eyes became cold, and a strong killing intent surged out. The next moment, he waved his hand and slapped Kayn in the chest, causing the latter to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Kayn covered his chest as his mouth hung wide open. He trembled vigorously while Adrian rubbed his wrist and said, “Allow me to take a guess at why you’re able to predict the future.
“Years ago, you accidentally obtained an ancient book written by a seer–Heroes of Wyvern Peak, to be specific. Later, you gave this book to Chase’s father, Harold. After Harold got ahold of this book, Chase found out about it and auctioned it off at Fowler House after his father died. In fact, he did this intentionally so that the book could be sold to the outlanders.
“Then, you went into hiding and realized that the prophecy written in the book was true after I became the legate. Now, after so many years, more specifically, a few days ago, you came to me to continue your shenanigans.
“Have I gotten it right so far?” Adrian whispered.
Kayn trembled, his mouth hung wide open, and cold sweat fell like rain down his face.
Before he could reply, Adrian continued, “The only thing I can’t figure out is why you’d sell the book. The book is the reasonL all of this happened. War Legate Achelous‘ murder, Harold’s death, Chase coming into power, and Wyvem Peak’s dissolution “In other words, you’re the one who started all this. Would you care to tell me why?” Adrian asked.
