Chapter 208: Have You Taken a Fancy to Her?
Audrey lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment.
Feeling unwell? You must know that when she was looking at that man, he had a heroic look on his face. It was as though he could destroy everything around him with a single move.
How could he have suddenly become so weak? Could it be that Morris had ambushed the man when he was leaving?
Audrey quickly rejected this idea. No matter what, this idea was too ridiculous. He had only cared about escaping with her at that time. How could that have happened?
Although it’s very likely that I’m hallucinating… I keep having the feeling that that person is emitting an aura that I hate. Klein raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose.
One had to know that he was very sensitive to some potions. If someone drank a forbidden potion, it would not be able to hide from his nose.
“Is that so? Then it seems like there’s really something wrong.” Audrey could not help but be suspicious. She was wondering if that person existed in the Templar Knights. Otherwise, how could he know everything about her so well?
Even if Daisy told him, it would be a little forced. After all, based on what Daisy thought of her, she would definitely belittle her to the point that she was worthless.
Audrey took a gentle breath and tried her best to calm herself down. She was trying to figure out what to do in her mind.
At this moment, the people walking in front were discussing another topic.
“When I was pa.s.sing by, I heard someone from the jury say that there seems to be a mage in our batch.”
“Mage? How long has it been since they disappeared? There’s actually someone who practices magic.”
“I don’t know either. Anyway, during the freshmen trial, there seemed to be quite a big incident. I didn’t find out the specifics, but I just felt that it was a little strange.”
Hobart said doubtfully, “Logically speaking, mages have disappeared for hundreds of years. How could there still be people who practice magic? Could it be that they are asking for trouble?”
Cole smiled. “What’s the big deal? In my opinion, every practice method has its own inherent meaning. So what if it’s practicing magic? As long as they don’t do anything too outrageous, it’s fine.”
Hobart raised his hand and patted his shoulder. “You’re really magnanimous.”
Audrey heard their conversation and her expression changed. After a moment of silence, Klein noticed that there was something wrong with the person beside her.
“Audrey, what are you thinking about?” Klein asked.
“When the two of them were talking just now, they mentioned mages,” Audrey answered, “why do mages have such a low status in people’s hearts?”
As for why, everyone present must be very clear about it.
After all, the Templar Knights were under the banner of the royal family. As long as the Templar Knights made a decision, people would think that it was absolutely correct. In addition, the Grand Magister’s Qi deviation at that time had destroyed the flag in everyone’s hearts, this also led to a lot of terrible rumors spreading from the Templar Knights.
It was a very common phenomenon for people to naturally choose to respect an organization that was considered to be the right one.
After all, no one wanted to become an outlier.
It was also because of this that, under the guidance of the Templar Knights, everyone’s thoughts would be led astray.
“Actually, I’m not too sure. After all, I’ve only heard from the seniors that the cultivation method of mages is evil, so I naturally chose to distance myself,” Klein replied.
Audrey was silent for a moment. “As expected.”
Klein smiled. “Don’t think too much about it. After all, the word ‘mage’ is already in the past for us now. There’s no point in thinking about it anymore…”
Audrey agreed.
They found a random place to eat. While they were eating, Audrey heard a piece of news that was relatively beneficial to her.
There was a place near here that was similar to a black market. It sold everything. She might be able to find some medicinal herbs that she needed there.
Audrey had prepared for a long time. For the current her, the most important thing was to raise her spiritual power. However, the most direct way to raise her spiritual power was through potions.
However, magic-related herbs could not be bought in ordinary places. If she wanted to find them, she could only go to the mysterious place they had mentioned.
“Let me tell you, the compet.i.tion these two days is killing me.” Hobart stretched out his hand to support his head.
He had just drunk some wine, and his face was still red. He looked like he had not woken up yet.
“There are always people who come to me to try and make connections with me, trying to make me lower my hand to them during the compet.i.tion. However, you have to know that this is a trial that concerns the distribution of cla.s.ses. How can I go easy on them?” Hobart smiled helplessly.
The few people beside him also had the same experience. Cole said, “Anyway, I have already made it very clear to them in advance. Even if they come over to give me a gift, I will not go easy on them.”
“It’s important to know that our trial is a very serious existence. How could there be such an act of going easy on them?” Klein echoed.
Hearing their topic, Audrey suddenly thought of the person she saw yesterday.
Could it be that she was also here to go easy on her?
