Soon, time passed and it was night. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

At night, the village is also very lively, the noise has not subsided, and the lights are lit from the south of the village to the north of the village. The "plague" in the royal capital has brought a considerable amount of foot traffic here, and there may not be many people actually settled, but until they are sure that the "plague" is truly resolved, the excitement will not subside.

In the midst of the crowd.

With a bored expression, Dick walked straight into a house that resembled a holiday villa in the north of the village.

"Young Master, you're back. The servant at the door bowed to him, and as he spoke, he took a nightjug from the ground and handed it to Dick.

Dick snorted, took the pot in his hand, and walked down the hallway back to his room.

He closed the room, walked to the desk and sat down, looked at the ledger full of books on the table, sighed, and was stunned for a while, and then picked up one of the books, opened it, looked at it, and couldn't help but start in a daze again.

After a long pause, he barely reluctantly retracted, looking at the dense words on the account book, he felt tired for a while.

"It's a hassle to do business......"

Seriously, he has already begun to feel that his father has nothing to do with the bullshit "plague" when he sent him over. This was to keep him in the backwoods and force him to look at the ledger here every day.

Thinking of what his father often said that all the property of the Fur family would be handed over to him in the future, Dick couldn't help but feel a headache.

Why do you have to look at the ledger to do business?

In the future, when he really becomes the master of the Fur family, he must set up a special position...... No, it is a profession that has been specially trained, and it is best to go through a rigorous examination before you can qualify. He can let those people help him calculate the money and read the account books, and he can be happy outside.

Thinking about it, Dick's mind ran away again......

"Young master, there are people outside who want to see you. ”

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, and the servant's voice came in, interrupting Dick's distraction in the face of the ledger again.

"Who? do I know him?" said Dick, who didn't even bother to turn his head, and sat down in his chair in a helpless voice.

"I don't know. The servant replied, "However, the man said that he was from the west, and that he was an old friend of the master, and that he had something very important to tell you." ”

Hearing this, Dick frowned.

An old friend of my father's from Semyon?

He didn't know what was going on, and because of that, he didn't want to pay attention to it at first. However, after looking at the ledgers piled up on the table, he began to think again, let's see it?

Whoever he is, it's more interesting than these ledgers.

"Alright, you let him in. So he turned his head and shouted.

The servant answered, and soon brought in the man who wanted to see Dick. Dick put the nightpot down as well, got up from his chair, turned around, and watched the strange fellow walk in, close the door, and smile at him.

Dick looked puzzled again.

The guy, who calls himself an "old friend" of his father, looks very young. He wore a shabby-looking robe, and his messy hair was draped down, almost half of his face hidden. However, the man's face looked sickly pale, and his hair was frighteningly light, reminiscent of the undead in a legendary tale.

Dick hadn't seen this man. But for some reason, looking at this pale face, he inexplicably had a familiar feeling.

What's weird......

"Who are you? What important things do you want to tell me? Still, he didn't pay much attention, crossed his hands, and looked at the man with a nonchalant expression.

"It doesn't matter who I am. The man spoke, his voice low and mysterious, "But...... I don't know if you know, but your father once had a deal with my organization. The deal didn't go through well and we lost a lot, so I wanted to talk to you about it. ”

Dick was puzzled, "Then you should go to my father, you look for me...... Forget it, you can tell me, what's the name of that organization of yours?"

Hearing this, the man suddenly put away his smile and said, "Silent Academy." ”

Dick's face changed suddenly.

This name, if placed before the events of the theater, he had never heard of it at all. But one day after the theater incident, Aix called him to his study and told him about it very solemnly.

Academy of Silence - A mage organization hidden in the kingdom.

Esker has been in contact with the organization in private, however, he has accidentally been caught and stabbed in the church. Ax had no choice but to gather all the mages from the Silent Academy into the theater and dedicate them to the church.

Since then, they have lost contact with the Silent Academy.

There is no doubt that this move is definitely a betrayal in the eyes of the Silent Academy. With so many mages being killed by the church like this, the Silent Academy must be very angry, and it is even possible to take revenge on the Fur family. Therefore, Aix also warned Dick to be cautious, this time he hid near Lake Pearl, in fact, the news was not spread at all.

How could the people of the Silent Academy find him here?

Dick instinctively wanted to call for help, however, looking at the strange stranger in front of him, he swallowed the cry for help.

Is it useful to call for help in the face of a mage?

"I am, I see, and it is my honor to meet you today. He barely stabilized his mood, smiled politely, and said a little flusteredly, "What happened in the theater that day, it was all other people who were in the way, and we can't be blamed." In fact...... In fact, these days, we are trying to seek your forgiveness, and we have even managed to peek into the Church's hidden texts, which say...... It said that the location of the Valley of God's Forsaken is most likely hidden deeper in the western mountains!"

Hearing this, the man suddenly fell silent, as if Dick's words had surprised him a little.

Seeing this, Dick grabbed a float like a drowning man, and immediately said, "Don't kill me, I have a lot more to tell you......!" For example, Grant! Grant has become a mage, and he has summoned a water balloon that day. The church says they have caught Grant, but in fact they don't have it at all, and they are still secretly wanted by Grant! What, is this news valuable enough? I also have a ship in the southern port a few days ago, claiming to be an apostle of some sea god, and the church killed them all on the spot! and...... Also, it is said that Her Royal Highness has been cheating with the chief knight, but His Majesty has not found out yet......"

"That's it!"

Suddenly, the man interrupted Dick's words with some impatience, and for some reason, there seemed to be a ...... in his voice A touch of helplessness?

At that moment, Dick also came to his senses. He looked at the other party's somewhat strange expression, and for some reason, there was a faint feeling in his heart that something was wrong.

Are you talking too much?

"Ahem...... That one. The man cleared his throat and continued, "Do you have any extra food here?"

Dick froze.

...... What?

The scene was very awkward at one point.

"If you don't have food, you can do it with gold. I know that your family is very rich, give me a hundred gold coins, and I will ...... What is that, spare your life!" I saw that the man said viciously with a serious face and in an unskilled tone.
