Chapter 445: Chapter 220 eting
“Lady Mandel, there are two Professionals outside requesting a visit, a Fourth Rank and a Third Rank.
They claim to be mbers of the Starfire Organization and have co with matters to discuss with you.”
At this mont, the mahogany room door was just knocked. A butler dressed in a crisp tailcoat entered the room and respectfully greeted Lady Mandel and Anvis.
“People from the Starfire Organization? I don’t recall inviting them. What do they want with at this ti?”
Also, how long do you plan to stay here?
Setting down her quill, Lady Mandel crossed her arms and glanced at Anvis with a hint of suspicion in her eyes, her aning clear without words.
“It’s fine, just go about your business as if I’m not here.”
But at this mont, Anvis pretended not to understand and calmly sat on the sofa, nodding to Lady Mandel and then continued sipping his tea as if no one else was present.
“So, may I ask my Lady if you wish to et them?”
After a brief pause, the butler spoke again.
“…Let them co in.”
Glancing at the butler still waiting by the door, Lady Mandel finally gave up on the imdiate idea of chasing away the botherso Mirror Man.
You like tea, huh? Soday I will make sure you drink it to your heart’s content under my writing desk.
Fantasizing about forcing the Mirror Man to sign a master-servant contract in the future, the blonde noble lady’s eyes twinkled maliciously as she glowered at him. Then, sowhat reluctantly, she instructed the butler to let the two waiting outsiders co in.
Upon receiving instructions from the mistress, the butler took his leave.
A mont later, the figures of Landon and Frey appeared at the entrance of the study, led by the butler.
As soon as he entered, Landon was stunned by the luxurious furnishings inside the study.
Like the studies of many high-ranking nobles in the Federation, Lady Mandel’s study was also decorated in the classic Gloria style.
All the furniture was indeed antiques from the period of the Ancient Magic Empire, with flowing silver decorative lines that bore the gracious patina of age, mysterious and rich with artistic flair.
Rows upon rows of huge bookshelves were filled with various precious Magic Books. The ceiling was entirely made of pure gold, depicting exquisite murals. A large Magic Crystal Chandelier hung from the do, casting brilliant splendor within the room.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Landon couldn’t hide his surprised expression, looking like a country bumpkin experiencing the world, causing Frey at his side to pinch his hand involuntarily.
“Honored Lady Mandel, greetings. I am Landon, the current leader of the sixth brigade’s chanical squad of the Starfire Organization, and this is my colleague, Frey.
We are here today to make a request of you.”
Realizing his gaffe, Landon imdiately focused, no longer paying attention to the various furnishings in the room.
At the sa ti, they also noticed the mysterious figure in a black robe sitting on the sofa.
Seeing them look over, the latter also raised his cup to them, appearing very friendly.
“You wish to request sothing of ?”
After a brief silence, Lady Mandel’s red lips parted, her captivating purple eyes intriguingly focused on his face, making Landon blush a bit.
“Hehe, let’s hear it—”
“Sorry, it’s like this. Last year, during an accident, Frey and her brother, Laina, were separated. Although we spent a lot of ti searching afterwards, we still haven’t found him.
However, I recently heard through various sources that Frey’s brother is now with you. May I ask if you are aware of this matter?”
After being pinched again by Frey, Landon’s gaze shifted away from the sexy, voluptuous body of the blonde noblewoman in front of him, and he revealed his true goal.
“Frey’s brother, Laina?”
Glancing at Frey’s distinctly elf-like pointed ears, Lady Mandel fell silent for a mont, her lips suddenly curving into a slight smile.
“The person you’re talking about, is he a prince from a small kingdom seeking refuge? With the sa light green eyes as hers?”
“Yes, have you seen him?”
Before Landon could respond, Frey imdiately spoke up excitedly.
“Of course, I indeed saw him. I bought him from an underground auction.”
With a peculiar smile on her face, Lady Mandel looked at Landon and Frey.
“Would you like to et him too?”
Upon hearing this, Anvis couldn’t help but widen his eyes slightly, casually grabbing a handful of crystal nuts from the table and tossing them into his mouth, savoring the taste as he chewed.
This very apparent spectator-like deanor earned him another discreet eye-roll from Lady Mandel. However, she said nothing, for the drama that was about to unfold also needed an audience.
When Frey’s brother, wearing a collar and almost completely naked, submissively crawled out from under Lady Mandel’s table, Landon and Frey could hardly believe their eyes.
“Co now, my dear, greet our two guests—”
With an evil smile, Lady Mandel lifted her plump toes wrapped in black spiderweb stockings, signaling to Landon and Frey in front of her.
“Sister…”
The mont the young man on the floor saw who it was, he seed struck by lightning, barely looking into Frey’s eyes as he muttered.
“Laina!! How could you treat my brother like this?!”
Seeing the state her brother was in, the elf girl nearly scread, her tone laden with intense hostility.
“Don’t be so agitated, our adorable elf miss, you’re his sister, aren’t you?”
Lady Mandel looked imnsely pleased watching their reactions, unperturbed by the girl’s offense.
“Did you know? If it wasn’t for buying him at that ti and instead it was one of my competitors, you would never see your brother again.”
“Sorry, respected Lady Mandel, I’m very grateful for your help at the ti! Frey is simply overly excited to be reunited with her brother after such a long separation, I apologize on her behalf!”
Biting his tongue, Landon quickly recovered from his shock, and while pulling Frey behind him, he began imdiately smoothing things over.
In his Spirit Sea, the Dark Crow Pavilion had been ceaselessly warning him that he was facing a true Eighth Rank powerhouse.
“It’s just… He is Frey’s lost family mber after all, and surely you wouldn’t deny a request for these unfortunate siblings, who lost their holand, to reunite?
I don’t know how much you spent originally, but I am willing to pay one and a half tis that amount to redeem him.”
The mont Landon spoke these words, the atmosphere in the room shifted dramatically.
Frey’s eyes filled with tears as she looked at him, while Lady Mandel’s gaze turned as nacing as a snake eyeing its prey. anwhile, hope, fear, and struggle flashed through the eyes of the young man on the floor.
At the sa ti, Anvis’s spirit was invigorated once again.
It was the scent of a turning point in the fate!
