Chapter 643: 206. Yuan · Reactor

Returning to his residence in the Outer Ring, Noland Lee spent a moment with Denise Green before retiring to his study to reflect on his gains and losses from his latest endeavor.

Evaluating his visit to Sienna and Kaiden on a scale of 100, Noland would only score himself a 90.

He docked 10 points for one significant oversight.

That oversight being, he hadn't anticipated Kaiden's dramatic reaction when his true identity was revealed.

Noland had ascertained Kaiden's true identity through deconstruction. He was so focused on acquiring Kaiden's knight techniques, he did not think about why Kaiden might hide his real name.

That was a lapse in judgment.

Yet, upon reflection, even if he had anticipated this, it could hardly have helped. Given that deconstruction couldn't retrieve distant memories, there was no way for Noland to know what kind of enemy Kaiden was fearing.
