The fragrance did not emanate from Duke.
But it lingered nonetheless.
It could only be explained by Duke having spent a long time with a 'Harken'.
"Beast Tamer?"
Jason guessed the man's professional system at the bottom of his heart, yet another thing had become certain.
The man harbored ill intentions!
'Demons' were not common monsters.
At last night's 'Secret Gathering', Jason hadn't smelled the scent of 'demon' level food on anyone.
So...
What were the odds that there were two 'Harkens' in Lorde at the same time?
Infinitesimal.
And when two 'Harkens' appeared, both under the control of a 'Beast Tamer' profession,
what were the chances that those two 'Beast Tamers' were unrelated?
Equally infinitesimal.
As for coincidence?
A minuscule likelihood might be explained away as coincidence once.
But twice?
Sorry.
To Jason, a doubly compounded minuscule likelihood could only prove that the relationship between the two was out of the ordinary.
