Constantine Estate, Uptown Quarter.
In his underground laboratory, Adam sat at the potion-brewing station and patiently waited for the serpent he had sent to secretly follow the spy.
He rested his head on the table, and before him lay an empty bottle of wine.
What a hectic day, he thought to himself, his eyes blankly staring at the wall in front of him, lined with shelves containing all kinds of magical herbs and ingredients in sealed, transparent containers.
After returning from the gathering, he came straight to the underground laboratory. This was the safest place inside his manor, after all.
Ever since coming face to face with the Master, whom he learned was one of the Elders of the Inner Council, Adam grew paranoid about his safety within the city.
However, this underground chamber was personally carved with high-grade runes that could ideally defend against the attack of even a Mana Core Magus!
