Dark Redemption of Elf
Chapter 221: Gulen’s warning
In a luxurious mansion in Huangyao North District, Cleveland glanced at the people kneeling in front of him, anger in his eyes.
"Who is it?! Have you found out?"
A man dressed as an attendant lowered his head and walked up to him, with a hint of panic in his tone: "Master Carlyle, we have sent people to monitor the four assassins' unions in the four areas of Huangyao, and sufficient work has been done at each city gate. , that thief must still be in the city, as long as we check all the hotels, we will definitely find the Flower of Shelley."
"I don't want to hear this! Do you know how much that is worth? I won't even be able to get the change even if I sell all your trash!" Cleveland yelled tremblingly, the man with orange curly hair and a funny smile on his face. Women still give him lingering fear.
Suddenly, a young attendant ran in from outside the door and lowered his head and said: "Master, the Marquis of Carlyle is here."
"What? Father is here." Cleveland quickly suppressed the anger in his eyes and looked towards the door.
After a while, a calm and steady middle-aged man strode in. He looked at Cleveland with eyes that were not angry but confident. He is none other than Marquis Carlyle, one of the eight major marquis families among the first-rate forces in Huangyao City.
"Father..." Cleveland lowered his head, looking a little ashamed.
Marquis Carlyle took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Cleveland, you should know how to look at the overall situation and not let such a small matter mess up your sense of proportion."
"My father taught me this," Cleveland did not dare to refute. Although the Pearl Shelly Flower was good, it was only wild. Unlike the ones cultivated in the Holy City of the Holy See, it only contained mild and pure light attribute energy.
After many studies, he discovered that the light energy inside had become chaotic due to interference from external elements. If you take it directly, you will probably explode and die. As the eldest son of the Carlyle family, Cleveland will naturally not take this risk.
In order to make the best use of the flower, he put the Shelley Flower to the Obsidian Chamber of Commerce under his name for auction. In order to prevent jealous people from hijacking it halfway, the confidentiality was extremely good, but it was still leaked in the end.
Duke Haller, who got this news from nowhere, hired people from the Assassin's Guild to steal it. Without evidence, they had no way to do anything to each other.
"Father, should we just let it go?"
After hearing this, Marquis Carlyle turned his back and looked at the light coming from the door.
"What doesn't belong to us, after all, doesn't belong to us. Don't forget that we got this thing from someone else. Now there is no need to waste manpower and material resources on useless things. Don't forget, she is the 12th Assassin. If they were so easy for us to find, would the Haller family still hire them?"
Cleveland suppressed the last trace of resentment in his eyes and bowed.
"...I understand, I will order everyone to be withdrawn."
"No need, I have asked them to come back to manage other things. Now you should think carefully about how to restore the reputation of our Obsidian Chamber of Commerce and... the female priest you have been dreaming about, hum."
At the end of the sentence, Marquis Carlyle's tone dropped, and he left without caring about Cleveland, who was still where he was.
"..."
"Here comes..." After a moment of silence, Cleveland spoke slowly, with a hint of ferocity in his eyes.
......
When the time came to noon, Ayton took out the certificate given by instructor Ruolin and successfully entered Yaolan Royal Magic Academy under the surprised eyes of the guard at the door.
Walking on the road to the Magic Academy, two young men and women with black hair and black eyes looked out of place with the outside world. Not only are they completely opposite in terms of clothes, but they are also completely different in appearance.
In the Yaolan Kingdom, many high-ranking officials and nobles have blue-based hair or eye colors, especially the Yaolan royal family, whose sky-blue hair and blue eyes have almost become a symbol.
Of course, there are many colors similar to red, flaxen, maroon, brown, gold, etc., but pure black is particularly rare.
So far, he only knows Angel and Hitomi, two purebred black-haired and black-eyed people. As for only one of the two, from the time he left the Forest of Despair until now, the total number of people he has encountered does not exceed a hundred. South District There are quite a few, including Vanessa, the female priest of the Holy See.
Even so, there were still many people on the road who turned their attention to the two of them. Ayton couldn't help but regret that he had pretended to be like this. Originally, he wanted to keep a low profile.
"Brother, someone is watching me..." Ariel suddenly pulled down the corner of his clothes.
"Isn't there someone watching us all the time?" Ayton, who was worried, replied casually.
"No, look, it's the noble who pestered us that day."
Ayton followed her gaze and discovered that it was Grant and his group who followed him out of the academy that day. They were top figures in the Wind Academy. The key is that he was the eldest son of the Earl Babbitt family. Last night they killed a man named Jeff. .Dude, Babbitt, did the other party discover something? Or is it just revenge for the humiliation of a few days ago?
No, if it's just for that little bit of face, it won't lead to deeper hatred... Forget it, Ayton's thinking is not something that Ayton can understand.
There were seven or eight people standing behind Grant, all staring in his direction with malicious expressions. Now there are only two ways in front of Ayton, one is to take a detour and leave, the other is to go forward...
"Brother, look, it's that guy." Ariel suddenly looked behind them. The civilian mage Feng Li who once led them was standing behind them, with a bruised and swollen face. Looking at the joking eyes of the people around him, Ayton I instantly understood what was going on.
"Let's go, Ariel, don't say anything later." Ayton walked up to Ariel with a sullen face. He didn't want to cause trouble, but if he blindly avoided it, the other party would obviously take advantage of it...
"Are you the new magic apprentice of this class? Why don't you even wear magic robes? It's such an insult to the respected magician profession." Before Grant could speak, the younger brother behind him stood up and shouted.
"Do you want to die?" Ayton glanced at him coldly, and the killing intent in it immediately made him shudder.
Grant spoke at this time, using a strange tone as if the two were meeting for the first time.
"You killed all the Black Finger people in the South District, right?"
"What black finger? I've never heard of it." Ayton shook his head flatly. In Huangyao City, although there were fights and bloodshed every day, killing people indiscriminately still violated the law. Naturally, he would not admit it directly.
Grant's eyelids twitched slightly and said: "Very good, if you dare to do it or not, let me ask you, what is your relationship with the Saif family? Why did Claire personally come forward to protect you that day?"
"We are just ordinary friends. It is our first time to come to Huangyao. Thanks to his care, we don't want to cause trouble, but we are not afraid of it." Ayton said with a hint of warning in his tone.
There was a hint of amusement in Grant's eyes, but he didn't pay attention to the warning in the other person's eyes, "So, you are just an ordinary adventurer from the Land of Thorns?"
"...So what, I would like to advise you, don't underestimate outsiders."
"Haha..." Grant sneered twice and said: "Very well, outsiders, don't think that you are really hugging your thighs. In Huangyao City, the water is deeper than you think. I also advise you to be a human being. , it’s better to keep a low profile.”
"..."
I am no longer low-key! Didn't you idiots come to find you? !
Ayton secretly cursed in his heart, wondering why this guy is such an idiot. Ariel couldn't help but move her hand closer to the hilt of the sword behind her waist.
In fact, his so-called low-key and the standard of low-key in the eyes of others are completely different standards. Ayton, an outsider adventurer with no background, first dismissed Grant's invitation, and secondly rejected Grover's olive branch in public on the red light street in the East End.
The most important thing is that he dared to bid with the eldest son of the dignified Haller family at the obsidian auction in front of a group of dignitaries. This seriously touched his bottom line, so much so that the son of the Duke secretly made the Babbitt family keep asking. Make trouble for him and hide behind the scenes.
In Gülen's eyes, these all seriously touched the bottom line of aristocratic dignity...
Fighting is not allowed in Yaolan North District, and the Yaolan Magic Academy does not allow any battles between magicians. They stood and did not dare to do anything to the two of them. After a while of warning to no avail, they sneered and left. Feng Li, who was behind the crowd, raised his head and glanced at the two of them, and quickly followed behind in fear...
Ayton was walking on the street with a gloomy look in his eyes. Ariel couldn't help but rub her fists and said in a cute voice: "Brother, why don't we go find some fun?"
"Just the two of us, are we going to destroy their academy?"
"I really can't bring Angel with me, or call Lan Keke. That loser dares to talk to us like this. Brother, if you hadn't told me to stop talking, I would have wanted to go up and beat him up." Ariel raised her head angrily Turn aside.
Ayton looked at her helplessly: "You must remember to keep a low profile in the face of insufficient strength. Do you still remember the fifth-level peak guard he hides in the dark? There are probably other Earl families like this. If there are many fifth-level powerhouses in trouble, what will we do then..."
"This place is so dangerous, so why come here..." Ariel muttered dissatisfiedly. As the best genius of the younger generation of dark elves, she obviously couldn't stand the anger of that kind of waste.
Ayton was silent for a moment and said: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that I would encounter so much trouble. I began to think that this was a big city and these problems wouldn't happen..."
"I told you there's no need to say sorry..." Ariel turned her head and looked at him angrily.
Ayton forced a smile on his lips, "Okay, but if they dare to provoke me again, as long as the time is right, we will give them some profound lessons... It's a pity..."
He didn't say anything about what happened to Feng Li. It would be okay if Grant was targeting him alone, but he had nothing to do with others who had nothing to do with him...
