Elysande\'s eyes flashed with complicated emotions as she asked, "Are you sure about this?"

"We can never be completely certain," said Adam in a flat tone, gazing at Alvertos disappear amidst the crowd.

The youth then looked at Elysande and solemnly said, "However, I am certain about one thing."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "All those years back when I healed your father, Alvertos was the one who was showing the most hostility to me. Although, he did an excellent job to conceal it."

"But how do you know that?" Elysande tried to come up with a counter. "You both have never seen eye to eye, to begin with. What if… you\'re just biased against him?"

Alvertos was the Flynn Family\'s longest-serving retainer. The patriarch of the family, Brigham Flynn, had taken him in when the latter had only just advanced to a Mana Foundation Magus.

Moreover, Alvertos had been working under the family since before Elysande was born. To the eldest daughter of the Flynn Family, Alvertos was no different than a relative who had raised her.

"If I was biased, I would have told you and the patriarch to deal with him all those years ago," said Adam as he took out a handful of rice from his earring and placed them on the window sill.

Then, he waved his hand and covered it with a layer of his mana, enchanting it in the process.

"Besides, I\'m very sensitive to other people\'s emotions and intent," he added.

Elysande remained silent for a while. If she thought about the whole situation logically, then Alvertos was indeed the number one suspect behind the poisoning of her father. After all, he was the closest to him.

Despite that, her emotions clouded her judgment and she couldn\'t bring herself to believe this theory.

Her father was also the same, yet he had allowed Adam to keep his eyes on Alvertos for all these years to see if his speculations were true.

No one wanted to find the motive behind the poisoning more than Brigham Flynn himself.

CAW! CAW!

Suddenly, a raven perching on a nearby building came flying toward the Flynn Manor. Its attention was drawn by the enchanted rice that Adam had just kept on the window sill.

The youth opened the window and allowed the bird to land on the sill and begin eating the rice.

"Good bird," Adam chuckled lightly.

Then, he waited for the raven to finish eating the rice before he weaved a series of complex hand signs. He then touched the raven\'s head with his index finger.

Rank 2 Spell: Bird Sense!

The following moment, an invisible string emerged from Adam\'s forehead and gently burrowed inside the raven\'s.

Then, the youth\'s eyes—including the sclera—became pitch black!

CAW! CAW!

After the connection was formed, the raven flapped its wings and flew away in Alvertos\'s direction.

The spell that Adam had just cast belonged to the School of Divination and allowed him to see through the raven\'s eyes and hear everything it heard.

At the same time, he extended his Sphere of Resonance to the maximum output to ensure that both the raven and Alvertos were within his sight.

The raven flew over the gothic structures of the city, constantly maintaining an inconspicuous distance from Alvertos while keeping watch on him.

With the presence of so many of these birds in Ravenfell, it would be very unlikely for Alvertos to think that one of them was spying on him.

Despite that, Adam didn\'t want to take a chance. After all, for an undercover agent like Alvertos to live with the Flynns for decades, if not centuries, he had to be extremely cautious.

On more than several occasions, the raven had lost sight of Alvertos because the latter had used illusion spells to cover his tracks, and alteration spells to disguise himself constantly.

However, it was for situations like these that Adam had activated his Sphere of Resonance.

With the help of this innate ability granted to him by the white lotus, he was able to easily locate Alvertos\'s mana signature and then accordingly guide the raven through the bond they shared.

After making numerous twists and turns, and visiting almost every quarter of the city, Alvertos finally arrived at Corvid Quarter!

He had disguised himself as a vagrant wearing tattered clothes. He had a different appearance altogether. He was no longer an old man with blue eyes, but a middle-aged woman with brown eyes!

Back in Flynn Manor, Adam was looking in the direction of Corvid Quarter with a somber look on his face.

"I didn\'t expect him to go to that district. That\'s exactly where the Red Fists are!"

Elysandre asked worriedly, "Could it really be that the Umbra Thieves and the Red Fists are working together?"

Adam was silent for a few moments before replying, "I\'m not sure, but it is very likely."

The next moment, he canceled the spell and his eyes returned to normal.

"Why did you deactivate the spell?" Asked the lady with a trace of surprise.

"He\'d grow suspicious if he noticed that a raven has been following for the last few hours," he replied.

"Besides, because of that strange disease permeating the Corvid Quarter, there are far fewer ravens there than there are in the other five districts. Let\'s not be too conspicuous. It has taken us more than seven years to lower his guard. We must remain cautious."

"How are you planning to find him in the slums then?" Elysande asked. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Adam\'s lips curled up into a confident smirk. "Don\'t worry. Over the years, I\'ve secretly left marks on several items he carries with him."

Before Elysande could ask how he had managed to do so, Adam had already placed his hand on her shoulder.

Then, his eyes glowed with an otherworldly light before he and Elysande teleported away!

…

Dundee Harbor, Corvid Quarter.

In an unassuming alley where nothing but rats and cockroaches resided, the air suddenly contorted ever so slightly and the following moment a raven-haired youth and a lady with dark brown hair appeared out of nowhere.

23:22

In an unassuming alley where nothing but rats and cockroaches resided, the air suddenly contorted ever so slightly and the following moment a raven-haired youth and a lady with dark brown hair appeared out of nowhere.

Extreme disorientation flooded Elysande\'s being as she struggled to stand. But thanks to Adam\'s support, she was able to retain balance.

She felt very nauseous, and when she looked at the dark and filthy place she had suddenly arrived at, she couldn\'t help but cover her mouth, trying to stop herself from vomiting.

Actually, Adam had blinked several times in order to reach this place. The maximum distance he could blink with the help of the lotus was no more than fifty feet.

That was why Elysande felt so muddled after arriving here.

She glanced at Adam and spat through gritted teeth, "Just where have you brought me?! And couldn\'t you at least notify me before you decided to just teleport?"

"Apologies," said Adam curtly as he looked in a certain direction. "But we would have lost track of him if we didn\'t hurry."

Elysande harrumphed in annoyance, but she didn\'t press further. She looked around at the filthy and stench-filled alley and asked, "Are we in Corvid?"

"Bosky neighborhood to be precise," Adam answered.

Elysande was visibly taken aback. She couldn\'t help but think to herself in shock, We\'ve arrived so far in just a few moments?! Unbelievable!

She then saw Adam conjure a forked twig from his earring and give it to her.

"Here, hold this for me," he said. "Be careful. It\'s a special material component for a spell."

Elysande did as told, placing the forked twig on her palm. "What\'re you doing?"

"Divining the location of the object Alvertos is carrying," said Adam as he weaved a set of complex hand signs.

Following that, a small magic circle lit up on top of Elysande\'s palm where the twig was placed. The twig hovered for a moment before falling back down on her palm.

However, Adam wasn\'t discouraged. He had placed several markers on the items he had observed Alvertos carry in his day-to-day life.

It was reasonable that he would leave most of these items behind if he was going to contact someone from the Umbra Thieves.

But how exactly was Adam sure that Alvertos was carrying an item that he had marked? What if the old man was carrying none of the marked items?

Because Adam had already divined the results of this mission before leaving his house. The divination showed him that he would get good results from this mission!

After failing to get a reaction from the spell for about half a dozen times, Adam finally succeeded.

Rank 2 Spell: Trace Object!

The forked twig glowed with an ethereal light as it hovered above Elysande\'s palm. Then, it rotated on the spot for a few times before finally pointing in a certain direction.

Seeing this, Adam\'s lips curled up into a slight smirk. He glanced at Elysande and instructed, "Stay close. I\'m going to cast a few spells on us. Then, we\'ll go after the bastard."

Elysande\'s expression turned extremely solemn and she took a step closer to the youth, standing shoulder to shoulder with him.

From the corner of her eyes, she saw brilliant white lotus patterns glowing on the surface of Adam\'s dark pupils. For a moment, she fell into a trance before she hurriedly looked away.

Being able to cast spells without any magical components… so mysterious! She thought in fear and wonder.

The following moment, Adam cast three spells back to back.

Rank 2 Spell: Silence!

Rank 2 Spell: Invisible!

Rank 2 Spell: Odorless!

Then, the two Magi gradually phased out of existence as if being erased from reality itself.

Sorry guys I haven\'t been regular lately. Life\'s been a little hectic recently, but I got no excuse. Will do my best to update regularly. Apologies once again!
