Alaric's Suspicion (2)

"Have you ever heard of the Alchemists?" Alaric asked in passing, walking back to the fridge to get more water for Terry. With the corner of his eye he paid attention to changes in Terry's expression.

There was none.

Terry was shocked to the core when he heard the masked person in front of him casually mention the word 'Alchemist', but as a very talented actor, he was able to cover his surprise with a flat expression.

He just shrugged, "I have. They are people from the Middle Ages who tried to turn metal into gold, right? What is the term ... hmm ... Midas' hand or something? What about them? Do you think Alchemy is real and you have a lot of gold?"

Meanwhile at the penthouse, Lauriel and Jean who were following Terry's conversation could only hold their breath. Who would have thought that the assassin would nudge on the Alchemists?
