News began to spread about the presence of a crazy bandit in the Rubana Forest

According to the statements of the victims who filed the complaints, the bandit's name is Robin Hood

After the authorities intervened, it became clear that there were bodies scattered in the forest, and they all died in the same way

TV channels and news websites reported that Robin Hood was robbing young nobles and was killing commoners

This spread terror among the adventurers who made their living hunting monsters in the forest

But the authorities soon revealed new information

'All the bodies discovered in the forest were wearing masks and clothing used as camouflage. We suspect that they are bandits..' This is the statement issued by Cairn City Police

Some TV channels conducted interviews with some adventurers who saw Robin Hood

"I saw someone wearing a funny fox mask. Only bandits wear masks in the forest, but he was walking alone and didn't look like he was strong. So we didn't worry or suspect it. All he did was pass by us. I didn't expect him to be such a strong and fierce person..." So said one of the adventurers

Many adventurers have come forward to give their statements, it seems a lot of people have seen Robin Hood wandering the forest

But the strange thing is that Robin Hood did not attack any of the ordinary adventurers. All he did was attack the young nobles

All the young nobles refused to answer questions from reporters who tried to obtain information from them

They consider what happened to them a disgrace. So they won't dare to show their faces on TV

"This cowardly villain was using narcotic poison to paralyze us and then attacking us." This is what one of the noblewomen who was robbed by Robin Hood said. The identity of this witness was concealed for security and social reasons.

The authorities found traces of poison in the bodies of the victims, but they were unable to determine what type of poison was used

At the same time, the police released information about their ability to identify one of the victims

One of the adventurers said that he recognized the mask of one of the victims

It seems that this adventurer was attacked by a bandit who was wearing the same mask

The adventurer was able to escape from the bandit and filed a complaint, but they were unable to catch the bandit

The adventurer was shocked when he saw that one of Robin Hood's victims was wearing that mask

This confirmed their theory that all the victims were bandits

The author's tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

The panic that spread among the adventurers began to turn into something else

As investigations continued and new information was published, Robin Hood began to become a hero to the adventurers

Bandits were no less a danger than monsters. Therefore, many adventurers were unsympathetic to the death of these criminals

As for the young nobles, they were causing headaches for ordinary adventurers. Because they are messing around and they cause problems for peaceful adventurers

For young nobles, hunting monsters was an training or a fun game

While adventurers consider hunting to be a matter of life or death

Some young nobles would harass the adventurers or expel them from their hunting grounds

The commoners could not respond to the nobles' provocation or show their annoyance because this was a serious crime punishable by law

All they could do was bow their heads and leave

But now someone appeared and beat up those arrogant kids

There were a large number of adventurers who smiled when they heard this news

Robin Hood became a hero to the public

While he was a criminal wanted by the authorities and noble families

The noble families sent many of their knights to hunt Robin Hood. But they were late because Robin Hood had disappeared, as if he had evaporated into thin air

Alexander was watching TV in his room

"...." He did not expect to become a hero to these adventurers

But what made Alexander relieved was that the authorities were able to identify the bandits

"Okay...it's time to get to work..." Alexander got up and was preparing himself for the operation to storm Mendez's den

Mendez was a well-known businessman in Cairn

He even had pictures with Theodore at some social events

This man seems to have a strong influence within Cairn

His company building was located in the city center. So, it will be difficult to break into that place. So he turned his attention to Mendez's house, which is located in one of the upscale residential neighborhoods

He must do it perfectly so that no one suspects him

That bastard had reached the fifth level, that was why Alexander couldn't confront him directly

All he can do is sneak up and assassinate him

But before that, he must prepare the spiritual potion

At first he was confused about why he wanted to make that potion, but after he remembered about Mendez, he realized that the potion would help him use some techniques and develop strategies that would enable him to infiltrate that place.

Is this the reason?

Alexander furrowed his eyebrows

He still thinks something is missing

Alexander sighed as he searched his computer for the necessary materials to make the potion

This potion was composed of five essence materials. But he had to request thirty materials

The materials for that potion were non-existent in this world. There are materials that can be used as alternatives

But it is difficult to determine which materials would serve as an ideal alternatives, because this potion requirements were high and very specific

He must provide a group of alternative materials and then begin conducting experiments to be able to successfully prepare the potion

He was able to prepare the potion (Revelation from the East) the first time. But he would have to try and repeat if he wanted to prepare the spiritual potion

He will fail again and again and lose a lot of material during his attempts

Alexander felt like there was a knife piercing his heart when he thought of the losses he would bear

"Mr. Ben, were you able to figure out the uses for these materials?"

Elliot sat behind his desk

There was a middle-aged man with short brown hair and round glasses standing in front of him

Ben has been running a herbal and pharmaceutical company for more than forty years, and he has more experience in this field than anyone else in Cairn.

"Mr. Elliot, I must confess to you that I have not been able to figure out what this recipe is for. It is just a complete mess..."

Elliot frowned upon hearing Ben's response

Ben resumed after a short silence. "Most of these materials are used in the manufacture of cosmetics and some medicines, but this is the first time I have seen all of these materials in one recipe..."

Elliot asked. "Did you notice anything strange about this recipe?"

" Something strange?..". Ben fell into deep thought. "Oh! I noticed a very rare material and I haven't seen anyone use it in any recipe.."

Elliot narrowed his eyes. "What is this material?"

Elliot felt that Alexander had a purpose in purchasing these materials

He wants to know this goal so that he can evaluate the situation

"It's the silver tonka bean..."

"This is the first time I hear about this material."

"This is expected..." Ben explained. "This material has almost no use, and I have never encountered anyone who has used it before, and you are the first person to request this material from me. but I have heard some disturbing rumors about this material."

"What kind of rumour?" Elliot showed interest

"Well... I'm not sure, but it's a rumor spread among herbal merchants. According to them, silver tonka beans are used in sorcery rituals."

" Sorcery?!". This time Elliot was shocked

What the hell is Alexander planning?

Ben's tone became more concerned. "I heard from some of my friends that the Dior family had purchased a large quantity of this material two days before the disaster that befell them."

A bead of sweat slid down Elliot's forehead

The Dior family incident was a disaster that shook the empire

No one was able to discover the truth about what happened in the Dior family mansion. The youngest daughter of the head of the family was the only survivor and she had no information about what happened.

This made Elliot more cautious

Should he report this to Theodore?

Or he should keep it quiet

After some careful thought he decided to keep up with Alexander

He wanted to know where Alexander wanted to go
