Chapter 152 Illuminati Again!



Nathan headed towards the inner part of the cafe where the manager\'s office was located.

Along the way, his employees greeted him with a respectful smile to which he responded with a light nod.

Runa, who was silently following behind him, was confused about this but her face did not show it.

Stopping outside the manager\'s office.

Nathan knocked on the door.

Just a second later, Joseph\'s voice sounded telling him to come in.

And so, Nathan entered the office casually as if it was his own home.

Curious as to it was, Joseph raised his head from the stacks of documents on his table that he was busy with.

"Ah, Boss!"

Seeing that it was Nathan, he reacted.

He stood up from his seat in surprise and walked near Nathan with a smile on his face.

"Why did you not tell me that you\'re coming today, boss? I would have greeted you if you told me so." He said happily.

After the two have met for quite some time, their relationship has gotten a little closer.

Shaking his head, Nathan replied, "No, it\'s fine. I\'m just here to meet up with a few friends to discuss a few things."

"Oh, is that so?" Joseph\'s gaze turned to Runa who followed Nathan inside the office.

Seeing the confusion on Joseph\'s face, Nathan said, "I just came here as I need a private space to talk about something that cannot be spoken in public."

He sat down on the chair in front of the table Joseph was sitting on earlier.

Hearing that, a light flashed on Joseph\'s eyes and immediately understood what Nathan meant.

"Then I\'ll be going out for a bit then, boss." He said with a casual smile.

Nathan nodded at him before heading out of the office.

With just the two of them left in the office, Nathan beckoned to Runa to sit on the chair opposite him.

"Runa, come here. Tell me what you want to talk about."

Nodding her head, Runa obediently sat down.

Nathan looked at her and said, "Now, it\'s just the two of us. You can tell me why you want to continue exploring the ruins now, right?"

Runa nodded.

She took a deep breath and the next second, her expression seems to say that she has resolved herself to do something important.

Feeling that, Nathan can\'t help but also straighten himself and wait for her to tell her story.

Runa seriously looked Nathan directly in the eyes, she said, "The truth is… I\'m a descendant of Naeco, the people who owned the ruins we went to last time…"

After saying that, Runa closed her eyes, not wanting to see Nathan\'s reaction.

Nathan stared at her with a weird look on his face.

Of course he already knows that she is a Naeco.

What\'s he\'s confused about is why Runa is acting like she\'s leaving her life onto him.

\'Why is she acting like that?\'

Unable to understand her behavior, Nathan raised an eyebrow,

"Uhm, I understand that you want to go to the ruins since it\'s a ruins of the Naecos." He said, then with a confused look, he added, "But why are you reacting as if you just told me that your parents are criminals?"

Hearing Nathan\'s words, Runa was stunned.

She opened her eyes and looked at Nathan, immediately seeing the face that was full of confusion, directly looking at her.

"This…"

She did not know how to react and was speechless for a while.

She looked at Nathan and with an unsure expression, she said, "Brother Nathan, you know of the Naecos since you were able to read the words written on the stone last time, right?"

This is something that Runa took note of last time since it was the first time she met someone who knows of the Naecos language.

Nathan was confused why Runa suddenly asked but still nodded his head.

Seeing that, Runa, with a puzzled look, said, "Then… don\'t you know that Naecos are being treated like criminals, especially by the elite society?"

This time, it was Nathan\'s turn to be stunned.

His eyes opened wide and he sat there without saying anything.

After he recovered, he shook his head and hurriedly said, "What? Why?"

He can\'t fathom why the founders of a great civilization on Earth such as the Naecos will be treated like criminals by the \'future\' inhabitants of the same planet they lived on.

Nathan frowned, \'From what I know about the Naeco civilization based on the information that I have on them. So how could they be treated like criminals in this era?\'

Runa observed Nathan\'s reaction and seeing that he did not seem to be lying about being clueless, she breathed out a sigh of relief, patting her chest lightly.

Then, a sorrowful expression appeared on her face.

She shook her head and bowed down with a sad expression, she said, "I also don\'t know. It\'s just been like that since the first time I became aware of my surroundings."

Getting nothing useful, Nathan frowned.

"Is there really nothing that you can think of? Maybe something you heard, even just a rumor?"

Hearing that, Runa seems to remember something and raises her head.

"Hmm, rumors, huh… Well, this was a rumor that I heard by accident but, it seems like the reason Naecos are being treated like that is because of something called Illuminati." She said,

After saying that, she spread her hands, and shrugged, "I don\'t know what that is though."

The moment Illuminati came out of Runa\'s mouth, it was as if a lightning struck Nathan.

A sharp light flashed on his eyes, \'So it was the work of the Illuminati!\'

Don\'t forget that Nathan now owns a camp of the Naeco from before.

That is why, to some extent, he was quite concerned about the matters of Naecos being treated like criminals.

Realizing that it was all because of the Illuminati, Nathan came to understand a few things.

Nathan turned silent as he mull over those few things in his head.

"Do you know what Illuminati is, Brother Nathan?"

Noticing the shift in mood around Nathan, Runa looks at him with a puzzled face.

Nathan snapped out of his own thoughts and shook his head after hearing her call for him.

"Huh?"
