The Genius Mage

Morris looked at Audrey thoughtfully. “If I hadn’t come out just now, would you really have given the money directly to them?”

Audrey nodded.

“Since you’re the teammate I’ve chosen, all the mistakes you’ve made should be borne by me.” Audrey looked at him. “So I hope that you won’t disappoint my expectations of you.”

When Jill heard this, she looked up at Morris. From the bottom of her heart, she did not like this little thief.

However, there was nothing she could do. After all, he was someone that Audrey had chosen. She trusted Audrey unconditionally no matter what.

Morris smiled. “I will.”

This legendary miss Audrey, was surprisingly easy to get along with.

After introducing each other, everyone went to the city lord’s manor to register their team. As soon as they arrived, they heard a sharp voice.

“Let me see who this is. Isn’t this Audrey who entered the trial through the back door? And look at the team behind you. They’re so poor.” Alice covered her nose with her hand, her face full of disdain.

It was her words that made Morris’ expression change slightly.

Morris had always hated these rich ladies. It was because of this reason that he finally changed his opinion of them. However, when he heard these words, he began to loathe them again.

Audrey sized up their team. They looked bright and beautiful, and they all looked very familiar. If she guessed correctly, they should all be members of the five great families.

It was obvious that Alice’s team had attracted a lot of attention.

“Look, the people in his team are all from the five great families, right? They look so impressive. They might be the ones to win the award this time.”

“Sigh, the people from the five great families aren’t people we can afford to offend.”

“I suddenly feel that the chances of winning the award are slim. So what should we do?”

After hearing the words of the people around her, Alice was very pleased. She looked at Audrey as if she was waiting for her to give her a reaction.

However, Audrey did not seem to care about her at all. She only casually took out the jade pendant and hung it on her waist.

Jill immediately understood what she meant and exclaimed, “Audrey! So this is the jade pendant that city Lord Lance gave you, right? It looks wonderful. Compared to scum who don’t even deserve to touch it.”

It was just these words that made Alice, who had been feeling pleased with herself, instantly change her expression.

What do you mean someone who does not even deserve to touch it? They were openly mocking Alice, and she knew it.

If Alice’s gaze had any substance, Audrey would have been exposed by now. Instead, her eyes were filled with hatred, and just looking at her made people feel disgusted.

Morris looked at the group of people around him casually.

As expected of the legendary Templar Knights selection. Many things looked very precious, especially Alice, who had many things that were easy to steal.

Tsk tsk, for a godly thief like him, this place made him feel like he was a rat that fell into a rice bowl or a fish in water.

“Audrey, did that person provoke you? Do you need me to take revenge for you?” Morris’ tone was mixed with some excitement.

Audrey looked at him and naturally knew what his expression meant.

“Be careful not to be discovered.” Morris immediately understood Audrey’s words.

Morris smiled and said, “Don’t worry. You know who I am. Even you were barely able to catch me, let alone them.”

Just like that, Morris moved as soon as he was persuaded. He took advantage of the chaos in the crowd to enter the crowd.

Audrey and the others were still standing in the same line. Then, after a few minutes, they saw a familiar figure appear beside them.

“Tsk, I really like this lively place.” Morris smiled. “Fat sheep are waiting for me to slaughter everywhere.”

A moment later, a scream came from the front of the crowd.

“Ah! Where’s my identity card? Where did my identity card go? It was here just now,” Alice explained in a panic. “You should know me. Why don’t you let me register first? I’ll give you my identity card when I come back.”

However, the person in charge of the registration did not show any mercy. “Sorry, you need an identity card to register here. You should go and find it first.”

With that said, no matter how much Alice tried to quibble, there was nothing she could do.

In the end, she could only lead her teammate out of the competition grounds dejectedly.

When they passed by Audrey again, Audrey could even hear her teammate’s complaints clearly.

“Didn’t we leave our cards with you? So why are they suddenly gone?”

“I don’t know either. They were clearly in my pocket just now.” Alice’s tone was filled with grievance.

“This was such a waste of time.”

Audrey glanced at Morris beside her. The latter waved the tokens in his hand at her, and the smile on his face was filled with pride.
