Chapter 1542






"I don't know . "

Kieran shook his head honestly, the alertness in his heart skyrocketing, picking up a very real malicious intent from Oliford Ryde .

As his Spirit grew stronger and Intuition entered the Advance Rank, Kieran became more and more sensitive against capturing malicious intents since he was very particular about it .

Oliford Ryde was just in front of him, so not even the least malicious intent could escape his senses .

"The Seed of Phantasm! A kind of seed that combines meat and vegetables perfectly and once successfully planted, people can truly taste vegetables, rice, chicken, beef, pork and many others at once . It is a natural taste, unlike what the high class restaurant served, which completely relied on the chef's skill to reach that level . The sole thought of the seed makes me happy . "

Oliford Ryde showed admiration on his face .

Kieran looked at Oliford Ryde's expression, unable to tell whether the admiration was authentic or for show, but it didn't stop him from asking, "So?"

"So, I hope that you can be a middleman and introduce me to Professor Smith . I don't need you to do anything, just introducing me will do . If successful, I will give you one above Proper Meal class food; even if you're unsuccessful, I'd give you a Bento class to show my gratitude . Of course, I've also heard of your rule: before getting payment and completing the previous deal, you won't initiate the next one . "

Smiling, Oliford Ryde took out a golden flask the size of a palm from his pocket .

Lester, who had received a silent order, took the golden flask and checked it carefully to made sure it was safe before handing it to Kieran .

When Kieran touched the golden flask, lines of words appeared in his vision .

[Name: Drops of Finest Cream]

[Type: Food]

[Rarity: I]

[Attack: None]

[Defense: None]

[Attribute: Unlock Wisdom]

[Effect: None]

[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]

[Remark: Back in the bronze age, people's love for the Golden Cake did not diminish but without the main ingredients, the baked Golden Cake couldn't satisfy people's needs . Gradually, a new type of food replaced the Golden Cake . Without the core ingredient, it is the liquid grinded from the finest cream, people called it Drops of Finest Cream . Although incomparable to a true Golden Cake, it provided a lot of satisfaction to the people in the bronze age . ]



[Unlock Wisdom: Has a certain chance to unlock Talent of the intellect type]



[Note 1: Has only a certain chance, not always successful]

[Note 2: This is just a standard portion for 1 person]

[Note 3: It can only unlock Talent once, not viable for multiple consumption]





[Note 4: After the seal of the flask is removed, the rarity will go down by time . ]



"The liquid grinded from the finest cream . Although a lot of people like to call it Drops of Finest Cream, I'd still prefer to call it how our family called it since the old days . This is Ryde Family's special product, only a limited amount is produced every 3 years and as the first in line to inherit the family, I am able to get some every three years . It is most useful during your first usage, so when you consume it, I suggest you find a quiet and comfortable place . However, even if you do not succeed, if you agree to work with me long term, I can give you more . Although it will be useless after unlocking your talent the first time, consuming it for a long period of time is good for your body as well . "


Oliford Ryde told Kieran what he should pay attention to after the flask was in his hands .

Although the description had written everything clearly, Kieran didn't stop Oliford's explanation .

"Your intel is really sharp," Kieran said after Oliford Ryde finished .

"Garcia isn't some John Doe, there is a lot of pair of eyes on him, but now, every eye out there is on you . What do you think about my earlier suggestion?" Oliford Ryde turned back to the topic .

"I need some time to think about it," Kieran said .

"No problem . Contact me when you are through . I'm sure you have the number to my communicator . "

Oliford Ryde shook his communicator before he stood up and left . Kieran didn't hold him back, seeing him off with squinted eyes .



Outside the cafeteria, the servant of Ryde Family was waiting in the car and when Oliford came out, he quickly opened the car door for his master .

Oliford Ryde sat in the backseat as he was used to the gaze of people looking at his extravagant presence .

After the door was closed, with the tinted window blocking the sights of the students around the cafeteria, Oliford Ryde showed a smile, a very delighted smile .

"Seems like your plan is progressing smoothly . As expected of the first in line to the family . "

The servant in the driver seat said in a flattering manner after he saw his master's smile .

"It's nothing really, it's really too simple . It's so simple that all I have to do is meet the First Seat freshman . Too bad… I originally planned to form a long-term working relationship with him, he does have a very attractive potential, but compared to the family, what is a little First Seat freshman?"

Oliford Ryde looked rather regretful as he shook his head in the backseat . After the little act, he showed a more straightforward, disdainful smile .

"Yes, so what if he is popular right now? He is just a little First Seat freshman . Even if he doesn't die right now, he will never be able to compete with young master or Ryde Family . Not now, not ever!" the servant continued to flatter Oliford Ryde .

"Though I really need to thank him for distracting Romuse and Smith with his life . Remind me to send flowers to his funeral . After this, with our arrangement, he should head to Smith's and get injured by the angry professor before he is blasted into pieces by our men," Oliford Ryde said slowly .

"Young master, you are really…"

"I see . "

The flattery from the servant was interrupted .

Oliford Ryde wanted to dish out a punch beside him without a second thought but as he raised his hand, he realized his body was paralyzed .

"Paralyze ball! You…"

Oliford Ryde cried out in shock, both because of [Paralyze Ball] and gettinga clear look at the person who appeared beside him .





Kieran!

Oliford Ryde had no idea how Kieran appeared in the car with him but he knew he must say something .  

Too bad, Kieran didn't even give him the chance to open his mouth .

A ball of Devil Flame appeared from thin air within the car .

And then… KABOOM!

The speeding car exploded just like that .

Oliford Ryde and his servant were blasted to pieces .  

Similar to how Oliford Ryde said his men would blast Kieran into pieces, Kieran returned the favor far quicker .

After the blazing fire attracted everyone's attention, Kieran swiftly returned to the cafeteria .

No one saw Kieran walk out from the cafeteria because of [Undercover] together with [Dark Movement Technique] . Likewise, no one saw him return either .

As for the server in the cafeteria? 

She was sent away by Kieran using the excuse of consuming [Drops of Finest Cream] .

Oliford Ryde told him to find a quiet and comfortable place .

Where else was quieter than the cafeteria after meal time?

As for comfortable?

In many aspects of Kieran's mind, the cafeteria was indeed the most comfortable place for him .

"Stand guard outside, don't let anyone in without my permission," Kieran said .

"Yes, my lord . "

Lester bowed, walked out, and closed the cafeteria door . The commotion was canceled out as soon as the door shut, Kieran then taking out the golden flask .

It wasn't just one anymore but… three!

Other than the first one, which was a deposit from Oliford Ryde, the other two were his loots from blasting the car to fiery hell .

Kieran wasn't surprised at how 'valuable' Oliford Ryde was . Judging from the conversation earlier, it seemed like Oliford Ryde had prepared a series of plans and setups . Although he didn't know what those plans are, he knew in order to deal with the likes of Romuse and Smith, Oliford Ryde must have poured in some serious funds .

The extra two flasks of [Drops of Finest Cream] were indeed used to usher his plans into fruition, but now, everything belonged to Kieran .

Without further ado, Kieran kept the extra [Drops of Finest Cream], unsealing one of them and draining every single drop .

The rather sweet, creamy texture with a slight taste of oiliness was very tasty but before Kieran could savour the moment, system notifications popped up in his vision .

[Absorbed special energy, activating Talent…]

[Talent activated!]





[Acquired Talent: Memory Palace]

[Name: Memory Palace]

[Type: Talent]

[Rarity: Magic]

[Attribute: 1 . Extreme Reading Memory; 2 . Optimize Common Memory]

[Effect: None]

[Prerequisite: None]

[Remark: Forgetful? Impossible! Every single memory will be categorized in your brain, as if they were arranged in an orderly palace . ]



[Extreme Reading Memory: You will never forget what you read]

[Optimize Common Memory: Your memory will be greatly enhance in your daily activities]



The whole activation process was very quick, ending in less than 10 minutes .

Looking at the Magic rank Talent [Memory Palace], Kieran wasn't unhappy at all . [Memory Palace] had zero combat capabilities and was more than a rank lower than Kieran's [The Warden] . Even though it was incomparable to the powerful Legendary rank [The Warden], for Kieran, with his vigilant personality, increased memory capacity was quite a decent choice . At least he would make less mistakes from now on .

As he searched for his blurry memories that got cleared up by the newly acquired talent, he smiled . Even though it was very noisy outside, it didn't give him a bad mood at all .



"Lester, we want to see 2567!" Senile shouted .

Senile and Leonard were blocked by Lester, the ex-Dark Eater, outside of the cafeteria .

"Without his permission, no one can enter," Lester said coldly .

"I am Senile! I am the one who signed on your pardon!" Senile said angrily .

"But the one who saved me from suffering is my lord, not you! Please don't claim my lord's credit as your own, it will make you look ugly!" Lester mocked .

Although dominated by [Mesly Ring], Lester's mind and thoughts weren't robbed from him . Lester retained his original intellect and personality, even treating the domination process as a true redemption for his life .

Lester had treated Kieran as the one and only God in his heart, same as the others who Kieran had dominated before .

But towards anyone else? 

The dominated will still perceive the others with their original perception .

They still liked those they liked and hated those they hated, but nothing drastic would happen .

Of course, should Kieran give the order, the like or dislike will change in a heartbeat, but at the moment, Lester did not receive orders from Kieran .

"Or… you treated the 'pardon' for my status as 'redemption' because you once abandoned your classmates?" Lester said without holding back .

"SHUT UP!" Leonard scolded Lester when he saw Senile's face turned pale, his eyes looking at Lester with hostility .

"What now? I poked at your wounds and now you want to kill me? I suppose you want to, it's the way you operated anyway . "

Lester was like a venomous snake, spitting his venom at Senile and Leonard and provoking them with his hiss .

Senile looked uglier than before, Leonard entering his battle stance and Lester pulling out a dagger in his hand .

The fight would occur in a heartbeat but before the unwanted conflict could happen, a shout came .

"STOP AT ONCE!"

Professor Tyrese was striding over quickly .

"Leonard, bring Senile down to rest, I'll deal with this . "

Professor Tyrese knew what was happening with a single glance .

"Yes, professor . "

Leonard nodded and brought Senile away . Professor Tyrese was left alone with Lester in front of the door .

"Prying on people's wound isn't a good habit," Professor Tyrese said .

"And taking credit for other people's work is?" Lester refuted .

Even against the famous Professor Tyrese, Lester had zero intention of stepping down . He was still as sharp as before, but it did not agitate Professor Tyrese, instead relieving him a bit .

'It is just as Mori said, Lester will only treat 2567 differently . He kept his original attitude towards anybody else for quite a while . Hope everything is progressing for the best,' Professor Tyrese thought in his mind before he spoke again .

"I want to see 2567 . "

"Without permission, no one can enter," Lester repeated .

"Then I'll wait for him here," Professor Tyrese said .

A quick glance at the professor later, Lester stood still and did not care about the waiting professor anymore .

As long as the professor didn't barge in by force, Lester, who was carrying out Kieran's order, did not care .

1 minute, 2 minutes…

Time slowly slipped by, Professor Tyrese was waiting patiently but when his communicator rang, things changed .

Di, Di, Di!

"What?!"

Professor Tyrese's face looked bad when he answered the call .
