When Angor arrived at George's house, he saw the old man writing furiously with a quill.
Jordan was standing beside him with a helpless look.
"Wait a minute, Angor. I'll be right back." George quickly went back to writing with his quill.
Two minutes later, George put the letter into an envelope, stamped it with ink, and handed it to Jordan. "Go to Waterford as fast as you can now. Be sure to hand this letter to Sheriff Byrne."
Jordan nodded, took the letter, and left. He did not forget to salute Angor as he walked past.
"Uncle George, you don't look too good. What happened?" Angor waited until George's footsteps were gone before he looked up.
George sighed. "It's all those people in Waterford. They saw that Waterford can't accommodate so many refugees, so they decided to move to the towns under their jurisdiction. Even a small town like ours has been arranged to accept refugees. "
"It's not that we don't help them. In fact, we arrange for people to take the initiative to send food to the nearby refugee camp every day. However, there are some troublemakers in the group who aren't satisfied with this and often sneak into town with their families. How can we accept people like that? "
"More importantly, Grue Town doesn't have houses for the refugees." George complained bitterly, "The higher-ups only need to say a few words, and we have to pay such a high price. How can there be such a good thing? The urgent letter I just wrote was to express my protest to them. "
Angor didn't know what to say. He just came back and didn't know what to do. Besides, this was the job of the sheriff and the lord of the town. He couldn't overstep his boundaries. "How about this? When I get back, I'll ask my brother to talk to you about how to deal with this."
"Very well. We do need the viscount's decision. This concerns the entire town, after all." George changed the topic. "So, Angor, did anything happen to you at home? I kept an eye on Padt Manor the other day, and I heard something rumbling coming from inside. "
Angor considered. The rumbling was probably caused by Eureka cutting down a small hill.
"Do I look like I'm in trouble?"
"It really doesn't look like it." George rubbed his chin and put on a gossipy expression. "Do you know what happened to Padt Manor these years? Why is it that the people who came out of there all kept their mouths shut, and even sealed the garden to prevent anyone from entering? "
Seeing Angor's hesitation, George quickly added, "It's fine if you don't want to talk about it. The town is pretty much the same as before."
"It's not that hard to say. It's probably that there's an extra important guest in the manor. And this esteemed guest doesn't like to be disturbed by outsiders. "
After George heard this, his eyes flashed with understanding. He did not ask about the guest's identity. Instead, he changed the topic and asked about Angor's purpose.
"Are you looking for Tulu? He lives next door. "George took out a bag from the drawer and handed it to Angor. There were some silver coins in the bag. According to George, Head Maid Mana left the money for Tulu to stay in George's house for the time being. It was his living expenses.
"Head Maid Mana gave it to Uncle George. Take it. And if you want to pay it back, you should pay it back to Mana, not me. "Angor put the bag back on the table and followed George to the room next door.
Tulu was staying with Jordan for the time being. When Angor opened the door, he saw Tulu taking a nap on a furry carpet.
Tulu woke up from his sleep and looked around in confusion. It took him a while to realize that this was Mister Padt's real face. He quickly put on his shoes and bowed to Angor in front of him.
Angor talked with Tulu for a while. He told Tulu that he would be staying in Grue Town for a long time, and asked if Tulu would like to follow him back to Padt Manor.
Tulu considered for a moment and decided to follow Angor back to Padt Manor. There were too many people in the town, and the refugees would come to disturb them from time to time. It was impossible for him to practice channeling in peace.
Angor gave it some thought and agreed.
Angor told Tulu to stay away from the stilt house and stay away from Eureka. He also told Tulu to leave everything else to Head Maid Mana.
In the past, whenever an outsider entered the manor, the owl hiding in the branches would immediately lose its temper.
However, when Angor came in with Padt Manor, the owl didn't even dare to make a sound. Especially when it sensed that the gray bird in Angor's pocket was looking at it with malicious eyes, which made it even more afraid to move.
He told Tulu about Owl's identity and led him deeper into the building.
He ran into Head Maid Mana in the hallway of the main castle. Angor asked Mana to arrange Tulu's living quarters while he went to the main hall.
Auri was waiting outside the hall. Her eyes lit up when she saw Angor, and she quickly followed him.
Leon was already waiting in the hall. He quickly gave Angor a big hug and looked outside the hall with a curious look.
"Hey, where's Mana? Didn't I tell her to wait for you outside? "
"I asked Mana to find Tulu a place to stay. Tulu will probably stay in the manor for the time being."
Leon didn't know what to say. He already considered asking Tulu to stay in the manor several days ago, but when he thought about Eureka, he hesitated.
"Will Miss Eureka say no?"
"Don't worry. I've already talked to her about it."
He didn't tell Leon what he wanted to do right away. Instead, he told Leon about George's problem.
After hearing that, a troubled expression appeared on Lyon's face. He rubbed his temples and said, "These refugees have already begun to sneak into the house?"
"I heard from Parshar that his cows were all cooked by the refugees."
"I heard that a group of refugees was causing trouble at the entrance of the town the last time I went out. I didn't think it would escalate to this extent. I'll go talk to George later."
"What do you plan to do with the refugees?" Angor looked at Leon. He knew how important the refugees were to Grue Town. How to deal with these refugees effectively was what Lyon had to face now.
"I have an idea, but I'll need to discuss it with George first. Also, it depends on Waterford's attitude."
"My dear brother, what would you do if it were you?" Leon looked at Angor curiously.
Angor didn't even think about it.
"From a superhuman's point of view, this isn't a problem." He could even create a bustling town within a short period of time and let the refugees live there. He could also go straight to the source and take care of Heylan Nation. That way, everything would be over quickly.
"But if I don't use supernatural means, I'm more inclined to cut the Gordian knot. Kill the troublemakers and appease the other refugees. Without them, the rest of the refugees will surrender, and it won't be hard to deal with them. "
Leon gave Angor a thoughtful look. "I think you've changed a little. You wouldn't say something like this before."
"I'm not changing. I'm adapting."
"But that's good. I've been worried that you'll get bullied because of your kindness. But it seems I was worried for nothing." Leon stretched his back. "Actually, I'm thinking about the same thing as you. The troublemakers among the refugees aren't afraid at all. They won't lose anything even if they lose everything. I'd like to see if they're really prepared to lose everything. "
While they were talking about the refugees, the curtains in the hall were lifted, and Head Maid Mana walked in.
After the greeting, Head Maid Mana stood to the side.
"Since Head Maid Mana is here, I have something to say." Angor's words attracted everyone's attention.
Leon also looked at Angor, waiting for him to say something. Angor didn't say anything. Instead, Angor waved a hand, and a small figure appeared on the table.
It was a small person who looked similar to them in terms of appearance and attire, but her body was smaller than a palm. Judging from her appearance, she was a plump middle-aged woman.
She was a little confused at first. "Sir, where are we?" She asked Angor after a while.
"Kumaomiao. If everything goes well, you'll be living here from now on," Angor explained.
Kumaomiao was Kudodo's mother. Apart from Papaya and Kudodo, Kumaomiao was the third person who surrendered to Angor in Soul Genesis Garden.
Kumaomiao was the chief of Blue Crescent Village in Soul Genesis Garden, and she was very good at organizing and managing people. Ever since Papaya left, Angor asked her to take over as the chief of this branch of the Krakoks.
Kumaomiao was a little excited. She had been living in the bracelet for a long time, and she always felt that she lacked freedom. Now that she knew she could return to the outside world, she was happy.
"What's wrong with her, Angor? Why is she so small? "Leon pointed at Kumaomiao with a shocked look.
Both Head Maid Mana and Olga covered their mouths and looked at Kumaomiao in astonishment.
There were many different races in the wizarding world, and Fey Continent was a place where mortals were used to seeing humanoids. However, in the Old Earth, most of them were descendants of homo sapiens. Grue Town was isolated from the outside world, so this was the first time they saw such a creature.
Olga's eyes lit up. "She's so small. She looks like a fairy from a fairytale."
Angor chuckled. "You're right, actually. Their race also has another name, which is called … "
"Fairy in the attic."
