Chapter 223: Arrived at the Castellan’s Residence

“Why is it so difficult?” Audrey asked curiously.

Henry clearly did not have any defenses against the beautiful girl in front of him. It was as if he had seen her standing with Dempsey, so he naturally thought of her as his junior sister who was about to enter the sect.

“The main reason is that Walp is too troublesome and likes to make things that others can’t understand,” Henry ridiculed, “the last time my master was called over by him, he said that he wanted to make a batch of potions to serve the army. He even agreed on the price, but he actually chose to go back on his word after sending the potions over.”

After hearing the last sentence, Audrey did not expect such a thing to happen.

A dignified city lord actually went back on his word? Could it be that none of his subjects were disgusted by this?

“Let me tell you, my master’s loss is relatively small. After all, the medicinal herbs were provided by them. My brothers and I worked for four whole days and didn’t sleep all night before we were able to produce this batch of medicine. I didn’t expect them to not give us any compensation. If we were responsible for the medicinal herbs, I’m sure we would have suffered heavy losses by now,” Henry said, his face was clearly filled with anger.

“That’s too much. Didn’t you guys go look for him?” Audrey asked.

Henry’s face was filled with disdain the moment the name was mentioned. “Look for him? He’s so noble. It’s impossible for us to see him if he’s the only one looking for us.”

Audrey cursed silently in her heart. This castellan was really meaningless. Logically speaking, the castellan should be responsible for the people, and not only was he not responsible, but he had also even taken the lead to squeeze them.

He was really too much.

It seems like it was hard to find a castellan as gentle and caring as Lance.

“Then, if we don’t go, what will be the consequences?” Audrey probed.

Henry’s expression clearly turned ugly.

They had not thought of the consequences. However, based on how Walp usually dealt with people, they could guess that as long as they dared to disobey orders, it was very likely that they would not be able to stay in this city.

After all, their master was a famous alchemist in the city. If they were forced to leave, they would lose a lot of things.

“At worst, they will be imprisoned, but at worst, they might be expelled,” Henry said with an unprecedentedly heavy tone.

Audrey frowned. Their castellan was too irresponsible. He would be expelled if they disobeyed the order. Was it not obvious that he was forcing everyone to follow his orders.

“He…” Just as Audrey said a word, she was quickly interrupted by Henry.

He placed his index finger in front of his lips and let out a soft hiss.

“Don’t say such nonsense. There are many of his spies in the city. If someone were to hear it, it’s very likely that trouble will find you,” Henry reminded her softly.

Audrey nodded. In the end, she swallowed what she wanted to say.

It’s too depressing to live in such a place, Audrey thought. If it were her, she would try her best to escape this place and go to another freer city.

“Actually, it’s nothing much on a normal day. He’s mainly making things difficult for the people in the City Lord’s mansion. We can usually live peacefully here. It’s just that we would occasionally sneak out to disgust us,” Henry complained softly.

Audrey could not help but smile when she heard his description. When that smile fell into Henry’s eyes, he was momentarily stunned.

After sensing that something was wrong with him, Henry hurriedly left his sight and reached out to touch his chest. At that moment, there was a faint throb coming from there.

The carriage quickly stopped steadily. After the curtain was lifted, Audrey saw the resplendent castellan’s mansion.

A man dressed in a Red guard uniform stood respectfully on both sides and helped her lift the curtain. Audrey walked down first and sized up the unfamiliar place.

Dempsey also came down from the carriage in front. However, his face was not filled with curiosity like hers. Instead, it was filled with disgust. No matter who saw him, they would find his expression very frightening.

“Senior Dempsey. “Henry hurriedly went forward to welcome him. “Are we sure we should bring Miss Audrey in? Based on Walp’s character, I’m sure…”

Dempsey looked at him. “Do you think that I brought her here on a whim?”

Henry immediately understood what his teacher meant when he was asked this question. He quickly lowered his head and did not continue asking.

“Audrey, remember to follow us.” Dempsey reminded her. “This place is very big. It’s very easy to get lost here.”

Audrey nodded and obediently followed behind the two of them. She could feel the guards at her side looking at her inquisitively from time to time. Audrey, who had long been accustomed to other people’s gazes, did not look away, she directly followed the two of them into the golden and resplendent gates of the City Lord’s mansion.
