Archmage had actually thought about it many times along the way, imagining how the two of them would meet each other again.
Some of them were more romantic versions. For example, the two of them might unexpectedly meet again in an inconspicuous village inn, surrounded by travelers who were in a hurry, drinking cheap ale and eating apple pies that the lady boss had just baked. There were drunken bards dancing on the table, and the inn would be filled with a lively yet lonely atmosphere. At that moment, he would push the door open and walk in together with the sunlight behind him …
Or perhaps, he would see that familiar figure again on an unknown path. The galloping hooves of a horse rolled up the fallen leaves on the ground like a golden rain, and he would gallop from behind the girl. The moment the two of them brushed past each other, he suddenly jumped off the horse and appeared in front of her as though he was descending from the sky …
Well, that was a little difficult. With Archmage's equestrian skills, he would most likely need to use his head to land.
He had thought that the two of them would meet on the ridge, by the stream, or even in the Port of Sethevia, but he did not expect that he would be ignored when they met.
However, seeing the girl turn into the alley, Rob secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This was equivalent to giving him some time to organize his opening speech.
In the end, Archmage struggled for a long time, but he still could not figure out what to say next. Besides, he did not see Lolo come out again after waiting for a while.
Instead, not long after, a guy dressed as a Paladin also turned into the alley. After a while, that guy slipped out of the alley again with an extra backpack on his back, but the Paladin equipment on him was gone.
Archmage frowned and walked quickly to the alley, only to find that it was already empty. The rookie Brave was nowhere to be seen. At this time, the fake Paladin pushed the door open and walked into the tavern.
Without hesitation, Rob directly cast a Positioning Spell on Lavin's face.
Lavin would not have guessed that he was targeted by a mage. The fake Paladin even showed off his anti-detection ability, but in the end, it was useless in the face of the Positioning Spell.
Relying on the magic mark planted on Lavin, Rob found the butcher shop of the one-eyed butcher without much effort. After that, he saw the unconscious Lolo in the cellar of the inner room.
Archmage was distressed and angry at the same time. He did not expect that the girl would be defeated by a few hooligans before the guys from the Court of Heresy took action again. If he did not happen to bump into her today, God knew what terrible things would have happened later.
The girl must have had a bad year recently, and her head was always injured. She was knocked out twice by someone before this. However, it seemed that Lolo did not learn any lessons from it. This time, she was defeated by a group of ordinary people.
The rookie Brave seemed to have always been like this. She was always kind to others and the world, always willing to trust and help others. In Ryan, it was because of this kindness that she was cheated of all her money by Old Ricks. Now, it was also because of her trust in the masked man that she was in danger.
This was particularly unbelievable to Archmage. Considering the series of encounters she had experienced before, she was chased by the Court of Heresy alone, which was equivalent to being abandoned by the gods. Her family might have been imprisoned or killed by the temple, and she might be in the middle of a huge conspiracy.
Even under such circumstances, Lolo's heart was still full of sunshine. She was not disappointed in this world. This was what Your Honor, the future Supreme Magister, admired the most.
When Luo Bu walked out of the butcher's shop with the girl on his back, Marden, Pepe, and Lavin were still standing there. This surprised the archmage a little. He thought that the three of them would take this opportunity to escape. When Luo Luo was rescued, Luo Bu also tidied up her belongings. He found that the girl's money pouch and the Elven sword were gone.
Without a doubt, these two things should be with the three guys outside.
Previously, because Rob was worried about the girl's safety, he did not want to get entangled with the three of them. So, he directly released the aura of a grade 5 Archmage. If the three of them were smart, they should have already known that they were no match for him. According to the normal development, they should have already taken the sword and purse and escaped.
If this really happened, Archmage was not worried. The positioning spell he cast on the fake holy knight would be effective for up to half a month. After he carried the girl back to the inn and settled her down, all he had to do was to spend some effort to catch the three guys again.
And now, for some unknown reason, the three of them did not escape, which saved Rob even more trouble.
The Great Magician walked up to Marden and retrieved the girl's sword from his hands. The latter did not resist at all. After that, Luo Bu let out a soft cry of surprise. The sky was already a little dark, and he did not notice it because he was too far away. However, Marden's eyes looked very lifeless. His pupils were unfocused, and the expression on his face seemed to be frozen.
Archmage then looked at the goblin and the fake holy knight. The three of them were in a similar state.
"Your Holiness Atleidrichard-Holstein, I did not expect to meet you here."
The sound of meat being chopped finally stopped behind Rob. The one-eyed butcher put down the cleaver in his hand and wiped his hands. "Looks like the recent rumors are true. You really left the Royal College of Magic and Magic alone."
The Great Magician was somewhat surprised. This was the first time in the past few months that someone had seen through his identity. Luo Bu turned around. Previously, he had been so focused on saving Luo Luo that he didn't pay much attention to the others. He only knew that the one-eyed butcher and Marden's group weren't in cahoots, so he didn't pay much attention to him.
Now, he refocused his attention on the one-eyed butcher. With the powerful insight of the future Supreme Magus Your Honor, he quickly discovered many unreasonable things about the other party.
The orc's hands were covered in grease, but the gaps between his nails were always very clean. This was very different from an ordinary butcher. Apart from that, the size of the meat he cut was exactly the same, as if he had measured it with a ruler. This was not something an ordinary butcher could do. Also, Rob thought about it carefully. The way he cut the meat and the frequency at which he cut the meat seemed to be exactly the same. This should be a special kind of training that belonged to him. Finally, a man like him actually collected a house full of dolls … Well, this could be considered a personal hobby.
