"Oh? Is this where your country has arranged for us to stay? "
Roddy stopped in his tracks and looked at the narrow and dirty alleyway before him. He turned his head to look at Lovis beside him.
Behind him, Eiffta's carriages could only move in a single line due to the narrow road. Even so, they still blocked the road, making it difficult for the already congested caravans to move.
The stench of feces drifted over with the wind, mixed with inferior rouge and fragrant powder. Roddy could not be more familiar with the atmosphere of this "ungoverned street". He glanced at the "map column" and knew that this city actually had a more suitable area for a tavern. Therefore, he spoke word by word. Although his tone was still polite, the hidden emotions in his words made the few mages leading the way feel a sense of danger.
"Uh, the council said that … Um, staying here is free. The council will bear all the expenses for food and lodging."
It was still this bullshit of "providing food and lodging is already showing you respect". Roddy put his hands behind his back and walked up to Lovis. He asked in a seemingly casual manner, "Oh, if I remember correctly, Mage Lovis should be from Ballenner Academy, right?"
"Uh … Yes."
"May I know the name of your academy's core councilor?"
Lovis saw that although Roddy looked refined and courteous, his back had turned cold for some reason. After being stared at by those eyes for a long time, he could not help but blurt out, "It's, it's Lord Lotica."
"Oh, I understand."
Roddy nodded. Just as he was about to continue speaking, the few caravan bodyguards who were unable to move because the road was blocked were annoyed because they could not move for a long time. They shouted, "Those fellows in front, if you want to leave, hurry up and leave. If you don't want to leave, then hurry up and scram! These are the goods of the Tarrier Caravan! You can't even afford to pay for the delay! "
Roddy narrowed his eyes but did not look at the shouting bodyguards. Instead, he turned to the team behind him and ordered, "Turn around and follow me."
"Yes!"
The barbarian soldiers and the Dragon Spear Cavalrymen only obeyed Roddy's command. They would definitely go east if he told them to. Even though the road was too narrow for two people to walk, they still turned around and began to turn the carriage around. The members of the so-called 'Tarir Caravan' were pushed to the side of the road because they were too close. The bodyguards immediately cursed and rolled up their sleeves as they rushed towards Roddy …
Before they could even reach Roddy, Erwin had already led a group of ten barbarian soldiers to block their way. Their hammer-like fists smashed into the faces of those bodyguards without any nonsense …
Bang!
"How dare you —"
"Ouch!"
The dozen or so bodyguards escorting the caravan immediately wanted to reinforce them, but Irwin and the others seemed to have gone crazy. They took the initiative to rush up and beat the group of people to the ground!
The muffled sound of flesh being hit was the only sound in the background. Roddy stood with his hands behind his back just like he did on the dock. The movers around him lowered their heads silently and continued to turn the caravan according to Roddy's orders. Irwin glanced at Roddy's eyes. After beating all the bodyguards to the ground, he went into 'Berserk' mode. He walked over alone and flipped the five carriages of the caravan filled with goods onto the side of the road!
Bottles and jars were scattered all over the ground, but no one dared to stop them.
After that, the barbarian soldiers threw the bodyguards and the caravan's carriages out of the road as if they were cleaning up trash. After everything was over, Roddy walked up to the caravan boss who was as silent as a cicada in winter and pointed at Lovis and the others. "If there's a problem, look for them directly. They're from Ballenner Academy, understand?"
After saying that, he glanced at Lovis and said coldly, "You don't have to send us off. We'll just choose another place."
The caravan turned around and left. The five mages looked at the shattered goods and the twenty to thirty bodyguards of the caravan that had been beaten up. For a moment, they did not know how to clean up the mess. They could only hurry back to the academy …
On the other hand, Roddy led the caravan to the other side. After passing through about four streets, they arrived at the street where Houdini had been earlier. He did not waste any time and slapped a bag of gold coins on the waiter's chest. "We have money. We want the best rooms and the best service. Do you hear me?!"
"Ah? Yes! Yes, sir! "
Roddy's nouveau riche look was the hotel's favorite customer. Not to mention that he was standing in the middle of the street when he said that. He deliberately raised his voice and attracted many people's attention. Even if it was very uncultured, the hotel would not reject business that came knocking on their door. Therefore, the entire caravan was quickly and comfortably arranged into the best rooms. Even the horses that they had brought were provided with the finest rations.
Neffy, Akasha, Merinsera and Sylvia who were following behind them had remained silent. When they entered the hotel and entered the large suite on the top floor, Sylvia said worriedly, "I didn't know that Lassman was so unfriendly … Will Lord Roddy cause any trouble just now?"
However, as soon as she said this, she realized that the three people beside her were looking at her. This confused Sylvia. She looked around and asked, "Did I say something wrong?"
"Silly girl, it seems that you still don't know your lord's style." Merinsera leaned against the long, exotic couch and crossed her slender legs. She raised the iced seabuckthorn juice that the waiter had just brought and took a sip. She exhaled comfortably and said, "When Roddy wants to trick people, he never says anything. You can't see it, but it shows that his acting is not bad."
"Don't worry. We will stay here peacefully. Don't forget that you promised to treat us to a feast. "
Akasha changed the topic, and the worried Sylvia finally relaxed a little. Akasha couldn't help but find it funny. Before coming here, Sylvia was a High Elf who had shut herself in her own world, but now, she was worried about the whole team. Roddy's seemingly tough arrangement seemed to be very effective.
Neffy strolled to the window with the juice in her arms and looked down. She asked curiously, "Brother Roddy is talking to Wizard Houdini. Didn't he go back to his academy? How did he find us here? "
"Let Roddy worry about his matters. Where are we going to shop later? I see that Lassman's women are all very beautiful, especially the earrings … "
Upstairs, a group of women started to talk about other topics. Rody looked at Houdini, who was sweating profusely as he walked too fast. Rody felt strange and asked, "Didn't you say that you will come to see me tomorrow afternoon? Why are you here now? "
