"Don't mention it. You helped me too," smiled Luke before he turned to glance at Kastov.

He was no longer talking about the Island of Despair.

Luke knew that Kastov knew much more about the Island of Despair, but he was merely being cautious and therefore, reluctant to share more about it.

With Kastov's help, his investigation and his goal of wiping out the Island of Despair would surely be within sight.

Luke and Kastov followed suit. The three glasses lightly clinked together, making a crisp sound.

Luca remained in the study room upstairs. She did not plan to go downstairs, she did not want to overheard their conversation.

Luca clenched her fist. After a while, she replied to his message: [What task did he assign you?]

She knew that since Amur knew what Abel would be doing next, he must be involved in this mission.

Luca was not worried about Pierre, but she was concerned about Amur's safety.
