Back in the present time.
Rodion didn't go with Mikhail back to the manor. Instead, he went to the café to meet the leader. Upon arrival, he noticed that one of the two waiters who had been there during their meeting the day before recognized him immediately.
Ugh…With my skin color and long hair, it's not difficult to recognize me, despite the disguises I had back then.
He nodded to the waiter in greeting before strolling toward the corner table by the glass window. He was not wearing any disguises. His beautiful brown skin was difficult to conceal, and it was useless to use any mask or any disguises anyway. Everyone from their secret group knew his true identity. Besides, the people present in the café right now were unaware of their group so there's no need to conceal his identity.
