York, Dorothy's father, was drinking tea at the Earl of Orsenburg's manor.
Old York held the cup of tea with some trepidation. Judging from the color and aroma, it should be Falosi's superior jasmine tea.
But he was not in the mood to taste the tea in the cup.
"Master Lars, are you sure that's really Sage Roursk?"
Count Kirrlutz paced back and forth in the manor's hall. The spellcaster who had just returned from Noland and his eldest son, Eitek, stood respectfully to one side.
"Even if I'm blind, I can't mistake my mentor, Count. My mentor did protect the little girl named Dorothy." The spellcaster named Lars truthfully reported everything that happened in Noland.
"Dorothy, Dorothy … …"
Count Kirrlutz repeated the name repeatedly and then looked at Old York who was standing on the other side. The elderly merchant almost could not even hold the teacup at this moment.
"Why would an ordinary merchant's daughter be protected by the Gray Ones? When did the Seven Sages of Noland become so kind? "
"This … … My Lord, before I came, I had collected information about this on the new spell 'Magic Net' in Noland. It is said that the little girl named Dorothy won a Hearthstone Open Tournament and defeated my mentor in the tournament." The spellcaster said.
"Defeated a Sage?" Count Kirrlutz's eyes widened. "Wait … … What is the Noland Open Tournament?"
"It is said that … … a card game called Hearthstone. It is very popular among the dwarves of Noland. My mentor also seems to be very interested in it."
"Card game."
Count Kirrlutz did not know what to say when he heard this. There were also some 'points' card games that were popular in Orsenburg, but this game was always associated with gambling and those underground shady deals.
Any aristocrat who appeared to be well-off would not get involved in those things that rats played.
But in Noland, a certain card game was popular? It was even held in an open and aboveboard competition, and even the Sages participated!
All of this seemed to challenge Count Kirrlutz's worldview, making Count Kirrlutz want to find someone to ask 'What happened to Noland recently?!'
"Father, they're just a bunch of Spellcasters. Do we have to be so afraid …?" Eitek was puzzled as he watched his father pacing back and forth.
"Just a group of spellcasters?" Count Kirrlutz sighed at his son's ignorance. "Listen up, Eitek! Our great Emperor Bisklin is one of the students of the Grey-Clothed One! When I was young, I also attended one or two Gray Robes' introductory magic classes in Noland. At least one-tenth of the Inscriptions of Order in this world were discovered by the Gray Robes. Do you still think he's just a spellcaster? "
"…" Eitek opened his mouth but did not know how to answer. He could only choose to remain silent.
"Sir Earl!"
Before the report was over, a scout in leather armor walked into the manor's hall.
"We found traces of the little girl named Dorothy."
"Where is it?"
"The headquarters of the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce."
Count Kirrlutz did not hesitate and immediately walked out of the manor. The people around him also followed.
Hearing the news of Dorothy's return, her father, York, felt his heart sink.
He was not sure if the Count would completely demolish the headquarters of his chamber of commerce and kidnap his daughter.
With fear and uneasiness, the manager of the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce immediately followed Count Kirrlutz.
With the Count's tacit consent, they got into a magic carriage.
The magic carriage sped through the streets of Ossen Castle for about ten minutes before arriving at a street that Old York was familiar with.
Now he could only pray that his daughter had already received the news that the Count had brought people here and quickly ran back to Noland!
But the moment he got out of the carriage, he saw Dorothy standing at the door of the chamber of commerce.
Her long wine-red hair was so long that it reached her waist. No matter where she stood, she was so eye-catching.
"There's no need for these. Move them all out! And those glass windows in the hall, move them out too! "
Dorothy carried a pile of boxes filled with miscellaneous items and placed them outside the chamber of commerce. The few remaining attendants in the chamber of commerce kept moving things in and out.
This … What are they going to do?
York stared blankly at his daughter. Not only did she order the attendants to move the decorations out of the chamber of commerce, she even began to 'dismantle' the house herself.
"Father! You're back! "
Dorothy saw her father standing on the street. Successfully pulling in a monster-level 'investor' made Dorothy's mood extremely good.
When she walked in front of her father, she suddenly found that the highest manager of the city, Count Kirrlutz, was standing at the side.
"Count Kirrlutz." Dorothy had long expected this day to come. She wanted to raise her skirt to the person in front of her in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
But Dorothy suddenly realized that she was still wearing the simple men's clothing in order to move the miscellaneous items. There was no skirt for her to raise at all …
"No need. Are you Dorothy?" Count Kirrlutz looked at the girl in front of him. Just one look and he understood why his eldest son was so fascinated by her.
This kind of beautiful girl who could roll up her sleeves and work was indeed very popular among the men of the Iron Nation.
But Count Kirrlutz was not here for a blind date.
"Yes." Dorothy replied.
"I have a question to ask you." Count Kirrlutz asked the question in his heart very straightforwardly. "What is your relationship with one of the Seven Sages of Noland, the Gray Robe?"
"Gray … Robe?" Dorothy had thought that the Earl was here to cause trouble, so she did not know how to answer the strange question that had suddenly been asked.
"My friend, are you satisfied with this answer, Kirrlutz?"
The Gray Robe slowly walked out of the shop with a cane. Count Kirrlutz quickly recognized the identity of this old man.
"I did not expect Sage Roursk to personally visit Ossen Castle." After Count Kirrlutz saw the Gray Robe himself, he was instantly in no mood to entangle the relationship between this girl and the Gray Robe.
"I was asked to come to this chamber of commerce to take a look." The Gray Robe shook his head and rejected Count Kirrlutz's invitation in advance. "I will return to Noland soon."
"This chamber of commerce? Gray Robe, if you are interested in the magic machinery of Ossen Castle, I can show you more. "
Count Kirrlutz glanced at the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce behind him. This chamber of commerce had mainly sold magic machinery a long time ago.
The most powerful way for the Iron Nation to attract spellcasters from other countries was all kinds of advanced magic machinery, so Count Kirrlutz also guessed that the Gray Robe came specifically for this.
"Magic machinery?" The Gray Robe also looked back at the Klia Chamber of Commerce. "This chamber of commerce is not a chamber of commerce that sells any magic machinery."
"Gray Robe, Lord … Lord."
At this moment, as the manager of the chamber of commerce, York finally could not help but want to stand up.
If the Sage visited his chamber of commerce, it would also be a powerful means of publicity. But at this moment, his daughter interrupted what he wanted to say.
"Father, a merchant from Noland hopes to acquire our chamber of commerce."
Dorothy directly said the fact that not only did she tear down the house, but she also directly sold it.
