Fein became speechless after hearing the familiar sentence. This Abyss quotes such as 'if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.' are already overused. He didn't expect that he would hear it personally in the future.
"Well, forget that I asked. Although I'm a curious person, it only applies to Research. But if it can cause some unnecessary troubles, no thanks..." Fein emphasized every word.
Lucius probably thought of him as the type of person who was curious about everything. But that's only half right. He wasn't about things that would benefit him. That's just a complete waste of time. He was interested in Science for the sole reason that it can help him become stronger, and that's it.
"Ohhh... It seems I read you wrong. It's been a long time since I've read a person's personality wrong." A glint appeared in Lucius' eyes.
