“Why do you get the guts?” Adrian said.He had never met someone so foolish. No wonder Shay was treated as a mere pawn.“I’m warning you. It wasn’t me who wanted your life. You should be thanking the people of Riston,”
Adrian said.“Why?” Shay asked, regarding everyone in Riston as evil since they almost killed him.Adrian scoffed. “Without them, you would be dead by now. They unintentionally helped to suppress the drug inside you.”Lionel stared at Adrian. He was supposed to be a Battle Warrior who knew nothing about drugs. Even he himself had only heard about it, and it was his first time seeing it in action today. That was why he got nosy.“There’s no similar drug like this in Navia. How do you know about it?” Lionel asked.“It’s just a guess,” Adrian explained calmly, “I saw cracks on his skin before, but they’re all gone now. It shows that it was caused by an external blow.”Lionel slapped his head. He overestimated how smart he was. He saw the cracks too. He had not taken

Claude was bustling about in the Thousand Herbs Study. He was carefully studying a drug addict he had brought home. He wanted to remove the needle in the man’s chest.Rozi and Marissa had left the study. They could not accept what Claude was doing. It made sense to have done his observation in the forest, but he just had to bring the drug addict home and stink up the study.Caroline was the only one who showed interest. She was chatting with Claude through the window. “Did you find anything, Dr. Claude?” she asked.Claude was annoyed, thinking that this woman talked too much. He could not work in peace and thought that he had to shoo her away somehow.“The peonies in the garden have bloomed,” he said as he clenched his fists. “Go admire them if you have nothing to do.”Caroline was speechless. The people at the Medicis Manor were so boring. Nobody wanted to talk to her. She thought she was lucky to have run into Claude since they knew each other. Never had she expected him to give

“I’m going with you,” Caroline said, “I hate such people. We have to kill him just to be safe.”Adrian was taken aback. Caroline was an innocent lady—as pure as a blooming flower. She had never experienced any hardships, so why did she have so much resentment?“Why?” Adrian said.“My mother was killed by this.” Caroline became teary-eyed, unwilling to recall what had happened. The only memory she had left of her mother still haunted her dreams. “I’ll never touch Wyldeweed.”Adrian came to a realization. Could it be the reason why Dieter was always in such a daze? After all, the man had gone through such a drastic change. Why had he not realized sooner?“Okay.” Adrian’s tone became gentle. “Let’s keep this a secret.”Caroline nodded.They headed to the Thousand Herbs Study and saw that the drug addict was the only person there. Claude was nowhere in sight. Had he run away?Caroline said in a panic, “Dr. Claude must’ve escaped. We have to go after him. We can’t let an evil man li

Claude was terribly embarrassed. He could not believe Medicis Manor had caused such a horrible thing. He worked the fields himself and always thought Wyldeweed was just a normal weed.“I’m such a fool!” he lamented.“Stop blaming yourself.” Adrian comforted him. “I heard that Dr. Matteo will be arriving soon. I wonder what’s the purpose of his visit.”Claude shuddered. Matteo was not an ordinary person. He and Medicis Manor regularly had business dealings, and Medicis Manor would surely be doomed if they fell out.“What do we do?” Clause asked.“Don’t worry.” Adrian showed no panic. “Even if Dr. Matteo is using the Wyldeweed to make medicine, the dosage should be low. Moreover, there are replacements for it.”Lionel was shocked. He had heard of this, but he was not sure about it. It was a surprise that Adrian knew so much. He was a Battle Warrior, so how did he know so much about herbs?“How do you know?” Lionel asked.Adrian looked to Claude. “If memory serves, there’s a Herb

Matteo became even more furious. "Do you have any idea who I am?!""I do. You’re Dr. Matteo," Adrian replied, his tone dripping with disdain.This response caught Matteo off guard. Despite Adrian recognizing him, the lack of reverence on Adrian’s part was too audacious for his liking. He could not let it pass."I demand to see Axel.""Sorry," Adrian answered flatly, "You won't be able to see him.""But I must!" Matteo seethed with anger and embarrassment. He had never encountered such impertinence—someone who dared to defy his wishes.Hendrick, fighting back the urge to laugh, kept his head down. He was wary of Matteo's short fuse that might flare up if he showed any disrespect.However, Adrian remained composed. "Dr. Matteo, it's not that I'm unwilling to assist, but I simply can’t. If you insist on seeing Mr. Axel...""Axel and I have an agreement," Matteo haughtily declared. "It's time for him to fulfill his end of the bargain. None of this concerns you in any way."Adrian
