Chapter 51: 2-63

The pocket watch that Grievius took out was quite a beautiful normal-sized one, it seemed to be made of matte black metal and silver details on the front.

When he showed it, Grievius opened it as well, allowing Adryan to see that the clock's hands were a wine-like burgundy color and its numbers were a rusty color.

Adryan was quite surprised and couldn't help but give Grievius a rare look.

"Is this what I think it is, Mr. Grievius?"

"Yes brat this is a sealed artifact, its serial number is 2-63 but I preferred to call it 'Hangover Time'"

Adryan raised an eyebrow at Grievius's naming ability, although he couldn't judge him too much either, he still had the Burnt Band in his pocket.

So he look curiously at the pocket watch in Grievius's hands.

"What are the abilities of this watch?"

"It has 2 quite useful abilities: if you turn the crown of the watch to the left you can use an ability called Distortion: By Distorting the target's words, actions, and intent, can formulate a certain order that provided an advantage, so as to achieve the goal of restraining and influencing their opponent.

If I turn the crown to the right I can use the last one being disorder: I can make the target or a specific location Disordered, such that enemies will easily make mistakes with their attacks, making them difficult to land or in this case disorder where we talk"

When he said that, he closed the watch again and put it in his pocket to drink more wine later, Adrian was quite surprised by the abilities of this artifact, if he was not mistaken, it should be made with the characteristics of sequence 5 Mentor of the Disorder of the path of the Black Emperor.

"But then what would be the negative effects of using this artifact?"

"he he"

Grievius gave a small laugh as he drank some more wine.

"It has two negative effects, the first would be that every time you use one of the two abilities of this watch, some perception of yours will be disordered for 5 hours, an example would be your sexuality and you will also want to drink a large amount of wine"

When he said that he went back to drink more wine but he choke....

Seeing this, Adryan simply shook his head and slapped Grievius on the back causing him to help him.

"How did you get this artifact, Mr. Grievius?

While asking this, Grievius cursed him between coughs but after calming down he began to think.

"Mmmm it was quite a while ago if I'm being honest, although I can remember buying it for 13,000 pounds from a friend in Bayam"

"You were in Bayam?"

"Brat, there's a lot you don't know about me"

Smiling at Grievius's words, the redhead shook his head as he drank the last of his wine.

Getting up from his place, Adryan said goodbye to his ex-shooting teacher.

After going down the stairs he tried to say goodbye to Robert but he stopped him.

"Adryan wait, I was wondering if you were free on Sunday"

Raising an eyebrow at this question, Adryan thought about his calendar and he was a little free in the afternoon so he told the blonde.

"Perfect then, would you like to come to my house for dinner?"

Taking him off guard, Adryan was quite surprised, he didn't expect Robert to have that confidence but it didn't bother him that much so he answered him smiling.

"I'm free so I'll be waiting for Sunday Robert, I would love to keep talking to you but I have things to do so take care of yourself"

Robert showed a big smile and didn't give much importance to the fact that Adryan had to leave so he dismissed him and continued to drink tea calmly.

Adryan was now at home eating while thinking about how to get the formula for sequence 7.

The potion should be digested no later than the first week of July so he had to think about how to get the formula but he would also have to look for the ingredients.

It was quite likely that he had no choice but to accumulate contribution points with the church until they gave him the formula after all formulas of sequence 7 were already hard to come by.

Although that could take a long time...

Leaving that aside, he began to think about Robert's invitation to dinner, and he couldn't help but let out a small laugh.

He was undoubtedly someone very nice and perhaps in the future Adryan would invite him to eat in a restaurant, although it would not be soon.

After all, he still had a broken rib and the effects of the potion were still going strong so he could only stay with Robert for dinner but he would have to leave early because he would have to eat more than the blond could cook.

Regretting that, Adryan finished his meal, and picking up the documents from under the table in his closet, put on his mask and cloak.

Sighing, he also put on the Burnt Band to use Shadow Leaps to get to the bar unnoticed.

After arriving with the secretary to deliver the documents, he told him that the person would be waiting for him in a room next door.

Nodding to that, Adryan went back out and went to the room and entered.

There was not much to say about the room, it was only a table and two chairs and in one of these, there was a figure covered in a tunic not allowing him to see any detail.

This figure placed the money on the table and Adryan could see that the person had delicate hands with red pedicures...
