Dr. Brown was thought of among the best expert physicians within the Empire.

He sought to heal not solely bodily illnesses but additionally psychological sufferings. So he studied therapeutic and different magical arts alongside his medical apply.

It was solely pure that he would turn into a doctor for the Grand Duchy of Conler, who was recognized for its curses. However the Grand Duke’s curse was relentless and chronic, and Brown, a mere mortal, typically felt small in entrance of Conler fort.

Dr. Brown, who resigned shortly after Estin took over the title, was stuffed with regret on the information that Helena, the Grand Duchess, had died, pondering that he would have been in a position to save her if he had stayed slightly longer.

When he heard that his youngster had returned, he didn’t go to the Grand Duchy with the thought that he may meet her later in life. His growing older physique had weakened, and he was afraid to face the curse in such a weakened state.

However when he heard that Estin had fallen beneath a curse and misplaced his reminiscence, he knew that if he didn’t see him this time, he wouldn’t be capable of shut his eyes in peace.

He realized that this was the least he may do for Estin Conler earlier than his life ended.

Even after Dr. Brown had stepped down as his doctor, Estin continued to ship him cash for analysis.

“Logan will likely be right here quickly.”

Furthermore, to prime it off, Logan Riley, whom Dr. Brown had briefly taught, was additionally working on the Ducal Home.

Logan Riley was a nerd, however he was the scholar who understood what Dr. Brown was doing finest.

He had anticipated him to proceed his research on the Academy and earn a doctorate like himself, however he didn’t count on him to turn into a non-public tutor on the Grand Duchy, so he was slightly stunned.

However as he talked to Logan, he realized that being a tutor was only a façade. And that there are issues he can’t inform him.

“Hey, Dr. Brown.”

Logan stepped into the workplace with a well mannered bow. He appeared to be in an oddly good temper right now. He appeared to get alongside properly with everybody and even appeared cheerful on the floor, however Logan was usually cynical.

Dr. Brown accepted Logan’s greeting, however noticed him. He tapped his fingers calmly on his knee in a rhythm. Why does that man look so comfortable?

“What’s the matter?”

“Sure?”

“You appear slightly extra excited than common.”

Estin requested why Logan appeared slightly out of types. Dr. Brown was curious, too, and seemed backwards and forwards between Estin and Logan with curiosity.

“Oh, it’s nothing. I simply met somebody actually attention-grabbing yesterday.”

“Was it your time off yesterday?”

“Did you get any excellent news?”

Lucas interrupted Estin and Logan’s languid dialog. He questioned if it was about Mary Conler. Logan sensed his concern and thought for a second.

Logan remembered Arsene’s response to his each phrase yesterday.

Properly, at the very least he knew she was doing properly, in order that was excellent news.

Can I inform him?

Arsene, who had been berating Logan for a very long time, had disappeared on the finish, telling him that Mary was doing properly and that he shouldn’t inform anybody about his go to.

Logan hesitated for a second earlier than opening his mouth.

“I met Arsene yesterday.”

“Arsene?”

Lucas jumped up from his seat, his face displaying a combination of anger and astonishment on the point out of that title. Even Estin, together with his nonchalant expression, couldn’t disguise his anger and shock.

Dr. Brown, listening to the title for the primary time, couldn’t assist however be baffled by Estin and Lucas’ reactions.

“The place did you meet him? No, why did you meet him? Did you simply let that bastard off the hook? How have you learnt it was him? Have you ever ever seen him earlier than?”

“First, please relax and have a seat,” Logan calmly suggested Lucas, who was visibly agitated.

Generally Theodore would play a prank on Mary, and every time she confirmed indicators of changing into agitated, she would put her hand over his and gently bob it up and down. Lucas wanted that gesture now.

Lucas sat down at Logan’s urging. Estin stared at him intently.

“I met him on my means again from going out. He revealed his identification first and approached me,” Logan defined.

Though Arsene informed him by no means to inform……. Logan didn’t really feel the necessity to comply with the kidnapper’s request.

His employer was Estin Conler, not Arsene.

Logan thought Arsene ought to pay an inexpensive value if he needed him to cowl his mouth as an alternative of threatening him.

“Miss Mary appears to be doing properly.”

A sigh-like sigh escaped from Lucas’ facet

It appeared like an amazing wave of feelings hit him, as he buried his face in his arms.

Though he scolded Estin for not consuming and sleeping correctly, Lucas additionally couldn’t sleep and eat properly after Mary disappeared.

“Thank goodness, thank goodness…….”

So long as Mary was protected, that was all that mattered.

Lucas needed to act as common in order that Estin, who had not but absolutely recovered, wouldn’t worsen, the three brothers and Rex wouldn’t collapse, and the staff of the Grand Duke wouldn’t be shaken.

Seeing Lucas, who was experiencing a wave of feelings, Estin, who was the primary to witness Lucas letting go of his pressure, patted his shoulder. It was a tough however affectionate gesture of consolation.

“However why did the rattling kidnapper discover you?”

Estin casually requested in an detached tone, however his alternative of phrases revealed how livid he was at Arsene.

Dr. Brown heard the phrase kidnapper and all of a sudden understood why Estin and Lucas had reacted the best way they’d, however why had Arsene sought out Logan? Logan simply shrugged.

“He needed details about the god of the underworld, so I gave him the notes and he disappeared.”

“You simply gave it to him?”

“No. Earlier than I gave him the notes, I requested him the place Miss Mary was and when she could be again, and he mentioned he couldn’t inform me the place she was, and he didn’t know when she could be again.”

“In the event you had known as Hestia earlier than giving it to him, we may have taken him hostage!”

Lucas expressed his deepest remorse by fiercely putting his palm together with his fist. As if his palm had been that Arsene.

“Miss Mary despatched him to me as a result of she needed the notes, and I can’t assist however give it to him.”

“……that youngster needed it?”

“Did you say the god of the underworld?”

Dr. Brown, who had been silent as he watched the younger individuals interact in unintelligible dialog, repeated one phrase that would not be ignored.

“Sure, that……. I believe he’s the one who put the curse on Grand Duke Estin.”

“Why didn’t you inform me that essential story?”

Lucas bowed his head to Dr. Brown’s rebuke.

“Why didn’t you simply say he was the sufferer of a curse?”

“I informed him to not inform you, as a result of if we informed you it was linked to the god of the underworld, you’d certainly begin researching about him, and I didn’t need you to get in pointless hazard in your outdated age.”

“However it is best to have informed me…”

At Estin’s rationalization, Dr. Brown was struck by an unknown emotion.

Did he know that he had run away as a result of he was bored with the Grand Duke’s curse?

He hated himself for operating away and leaving Estin, whom he thought of his grandchild, behind.

“And I’ve been repeatedly finding out the underworld god.”

Lastly coming to his senses, Dr. Brown checked out Estin as a affected person to be handled, not a grandchild.

After leaving the Grand Duchy and in search of atonement, Dr. Brown had been offering medical companies in Conler’s Tana District. Kidnappings had been frequent within the lawless district, and sufferers he had seen the earlier week would all of a sudden disappear.

It was a secret-like story that was shared with Dr. Brown, who was always fearful about these youngsters.

Since then, Dr. Brown has continued his analysis into the underworld.

“And Logan has been doing analysis on that, too, hasn’t he?”

“Sure. I’ve been following his each transfer to some extent.”

“And you realize what sort of sorcery he makes use of?”

“Sure, it’s a sorcery known as Yusa.”

“Sure, it’s magic created by a person who was known as the god of loss of life in historical instances. It’s so eerie that it may solely be known as sorcery or a curse.”

Logan nodded. Dr. Brown mentioned nothing extra, simply crossed his arms and dropped his head, deep in thought.

When he lifted his head once more, his eyes sparkled with a pointy brightness, an odd gleam that someway matched the deeply entrenched wrinkles.

“My Lord, wouldn’t it be alright if I borrowed Logan for some time?”

“Logan?”

“Sure. I would like to do a little analysis with Logan. It has one thing to do with that serpentine beast you defeated.”
