Two sets of armor and a black panther slowly ascended the stairs of the Sorcerer's Association under the watchful eyes of the crowd. However, just as they were about to enter the gate, an unfamiliar guard stopped them. The guard spoke in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing, "I'm sorry, ma 'am. We don't allow pets and mounts here. If you're planning to bring your mount through the teleportation circle, you can use the cargo passage on the side …"
It was obvious that the guard was a newcomer who had not seen much of the world. He subconsciously thought that the black-haired beauty in front of him was the main character, and the ugly armor behind her was probably the beauty's Soul Armature. That was why he was talking to the Warrior Walker instead of Baiyi.
The Warrior Walker was amused. Just as she was about to say something, an older guard suddenly appeared from the side. He grabbed the newcomer and glared at him fiercely. Then, he quickly put on a warm smile and bowed respectfully to Baiyi. He said humbly, "Esteemed Senior Advisor, Sir Hope, welcome to our branch in the Imperial City."
"Thank you," Baiyi replied indifferently. Leading the Warrior Walker and the panther, Baiyi swaggered into the building. The newcomer was left behind, staring at the back of the two with a dumbfounded expression. Just as he was about to scratch his head, the senior next to him slapped him on the back of his head.
"Kid, are you blind? How dare you stop such a big shot? "The senior scolded him in a low voice." Do you know who he is? "
The newcomer shook his head blankly.
"Then, do you remember why you came to the city?" The senior asked again.
"To work, to earn enough money for my school fees. Then, I will apply to University and become a university student. Once I graduate, I will go back to save my hometown!" The newcomer answered honestly.
"I didn't ask you to say the rest …" The senior shook his head helplessly. He groaned inwardly. Why did I have to partner up with such a blockhead? Fortunately, the person I talked to today was Sir Hope, who was easy to talk to. If I had met some petty nobleman, I would have been dragged into this mess as well.
"Listen up. That Soul Armature just now is the dean of the academy that you've been dreaming of. Not only did you block his way, but you've also treated him like a little follower …" The senior continued with a slightly threatening and joking tone, "Other than that, he's also a high-ranking consultant that our Sorcerer's Association has specially hired. One word from him and he can send you back to your hometown! Now, do you know how big of a mistake you've made? Now, do you know how much I've helped you? "
He wanted to put his arm around the newcomer's shoulder and use the excuse that he had helped the newcomer to buy him a drink. However, before he could put his arm around the newcomer's shoulder, he saw the honest young man's face turn pale, and he hurriedly chased after Baiyi's silhouette.
The senior was dumbstruck. He simply didn't know if there was something wrong with this kid's brain. How dare he act like this after knowing his identity?
"What a scary country bumpkin …" The senior sighed. He decided to find the manager and cut ties with him. Even if Master Hope was rumored to have a good temper, he should not be so good-tempered as to put up with harassment over and over again. He really did not know why the association would hire a temporary worker like him.
Fortunately, his worries did not come true. Baiyi and the Warrior Walker were fast, and by the time the young man caught up to them, they had already disappeared into some teleportation portal. The young man could only stare blankly at the complicated pathways and portals, completely at a loss as to what to do.
After a while, he realized that he had lost track of Baiyi and the Warrior. He could only return to guard the gate in a daze. On his way back, he bumped into the manager, who deducted his salary for the day for leaving his post without permission.
Baiyi, of course, did not know that someone was so desperate to find him, but even if he did, it would have been pointless. Under the current circumstances, there were too many people who wanted to find him. There were all kinds of people, and this country bumpkin was just the most inconspicuous one.
After entering the teleportation portal with the well-dressed and easy-going warrior girl, he took advantage of the fact that there was no one around and said, "The main topic of the ball this time is about the new clothes. We need to borrow the Southern Duke's luxury goods sales channel, so I might need to trouble you to demonstrate it later."
"Oh, got it," the Warrior Walker replied faintly, but she suddenly shook her head and said, "But I refuse."
"You …" Baiyi was taken aback. Now this is really awkward.
"Kiss me and I'll say yes." The Warrior Walker's face suddenly changed into a mischievous smile. She blinked her big eyes at Baiyi and said something that did not match her temperament and persona at all.
"You …" Baiyi was speechless. What was the point of two armors doing this? However, he knew the Warrior Walker's personality very well. If he did not say yes, she would really reject him.
Left with no choice, Baiyi moved his visor closer and lightly pressed it against the Warrior Walker's forehead.
The warrior reached out and rubbed his forehead. He smiled in satisfaction. It was a very bright and happy smile. He then said, "Sure enough, it's just like what the assassin said. You need others to take the initiative."
So she learned this trick from the assassin-type Hem Hem, huh? I'll have to find a chance to poke this troublemaker! No, wait. She doesn't even cry out in pain when I poke her. Instead, she just smiles like an idiot. Has she gotten used to it? I'll have to find another way to punish her!
Unfortunately, Baiyi still could not come up with an effective way to punish her even after the two left the portal.
While Baiyi rode on his leopard and the Warrior Walker sat in a carriage that was specially sent to pick them up, slowly making their way to a private manor on the outskirts of the city. Tisdale had finished her errands and returned to Da Xue through the portal. She looked at the sky and realized that it was getting late. Remembering that she still had a few sisters waiting for her, she rushed straight to Attie's house without even taking a shower or changing her clothes.
When she reached the door, her attention was drawn to the charred mailbox filled with love letters. When she pushed the door open, she saw Attie and Nota in the kitchen instead of Mia and the others. "Attie, I'm here!" Attie called out. "I'm here! Also, there are so many letters outside your door. Do you need me to bring them in? "
"Oh, no need," Attie replied simply. She poked her head out of the kitchen and said to Tisdale, "Big Sister Dale, can you step aside?"
Tisdale hurriedly moved half a step away. She then saw Attie stretch out two fingers and wave them in the direction of the door. A fiery red combat chi blade shot out from her fingertips and brushed past Tisdale, accurately entering the mailbox behind the door.
A few moments later, the sound of paper burning could be heard from outside the door. So this was how she dealt with the letters. No wonder the mailbox was burnt like that.
Attie did not even look at it and turned back to her cooking. She did not forget to remind Baiyi, "Mia and the others are upstairs. Dinner will be ready in a while."
This was the first time Tisdale had seen Attie deal with letters in such a way. She touched her cheek, which was still burning, and did not know whether to laugh or cry. She asked, "Aren't you afraid of a fire?"
"Don't worry, the rest of the materials are fireproof," Attie's reply came from the kitchen.
Well, it couldn't be helped. The maidservant had always been a maverick. Tisdale had no choice but to shrug her shoulders and walk up to the second floor of the cottage.
In the living room on the second floor, Mia and Mordred were sitting on the sofa with their brows furrowed. It was as if they were in the middle of a war. Kitsune and Owl were advising the two of them. Laeticia and Nydore were standing by the window, where Sunny the Sunflower was placed. Each of them was holding a pot of flowers that had been grown inside an animal coin bank, and the other was holding a pair of scissors. Perhaps they were discussing gardening techniques?
Vidomina was nowhere to be seen. She was probably still at work.
When Mia noticed that Tisdale had arrived, she quickly stood up and rushed over to give her a big hug. Then, following the traditional etiquette of the Baiyi family, she tiptoed as hard as she could. Tisdale quickly bent down and let Mia rub her cheeks on both sides of her face.
"You're here, Big Sister Dale!" Mordred's face lit up with her trademark bright smile as she skipped over to Tisdale. Tisdale bent down even more so that she could mimic Mia's etiquette.
For some reason, Mordred still looked like a little loli when she was at home or at her sisters'. Only when she was in front of the students would she assume the appearance of a tall, slender girl. Did she not find it troublesome to keep changing her appearance? However, if one were to think about it, considering the age of a dragon, Mordred's loli appearance would be more suitable. However, it would be troublesome when she had to teach the students. Was that why she did it?
Laeticia and Nydore walked up to Tisdale, and they all used the same method to show their friendliness to Tisdale. For a moment, it looked like a Mafia party.
Although Tisdale was not the oldest among the girls — Nydore, Nota, and even Mordred were all older than her — she was still the leader of the group. She accepted the title of "Big Sister Tisdale" from the other girls without hesitation.
