The Witcher: Elemental Lords

"Why don't I go and inquire about that woman's background for you?" Carol coaxed.

Wayne shrugged. "Then go ahead. I'm not interested anyway. Too many women might not be a good thing." He picked up his wine glass, ready to leave.

Just then, a commotion came from the entrance, and a group of people entered from outside.

Wayne glanced at the entrance, then turned his head and signaled to someone nearby, who immediately nodded and left.

A group of people entered through the doorway, quickly passing through the central hall and arriving at the innermost hall.

At this moment, the person Wayne signaled returned from outside and whispered something in Wayne's ear.

Wayne's expression changed from calm to surprise, and then to bewilderment.

On the other side of the hall, Dolais had been watching his surroundings. Seeing the newcomers, he thought to himself that things were getting interesting. The people who came were Ayton, from the capital. Besides Ayton, there were two others whose presence seemed to be on par with Ayton's, exuding a strong sense of superiority.

They were all from the capital. He just didn't know who they were. The Edward family, it was said, was also very famous in the capital. He didn't know what the situation was with the other two.

Thinking of this, Dolais became interested.

He looked towards the nobles and noticed that Wayne, as the host, had already left the back and was walking towards the central hall.

The entire hall was now looking towards the entrance, and there was a slight commotion.

The surroundings gradually quieted down, and even those young men and women who were paired up were now looking over. As nobles, one of their most important basic skills was to learn to observe and analyze the situation before them.

Akso looked at Dolais and smiled, "How about I stay with you?"

Dolais was a little helpless, "Why do you have to stay with me? I'm poor, what's so good about it?"

Akso looked at Dolais, and said aggrievedly, "But I have nowhere to go now."

Dolais mentally vomited blood, thinking, "It's none of my business that you have nowhere to live." But he said aloud, "You're so rich, why not build a wizard tower?"

Akso's eyes rolled, "No one will help me build it. If you help me build it, I'll give you all my money."

Dolais spat out a mouthful of blood. So that's what she was waiting for.

He said with some difficulty, "I don't have the energy to manage the wizard tower right now. A dozen of my subordinates want to build wizard towers, and I haven't agreed yet."

Akso immediately reached out and grabbed Dolais's arm, shaking it vigorously, "I don't care, I don't care, I'm going to latch onto you."

Dolais immediately got goosebumps all over his body. You're already three hundred and fifty years old, and you're still acting like a little girl. How disgusting.

This old monster is really becoming a spirit.

He immediately begged for mercy, "Okay, okay, you can live wherever you want, okay? I'll give you the city lord's mansion."

Only then did Akso smile, sweetly saying, "That's right. Let's go, this place is so boring. There are a few handsome guys, but they're all too weak, not as good as you."

Dolais's face turned green, "Don't talk nonsense all day long."

Akso scoffed, and said, "Of course, who would know that besides being a level six wizard, you are also a level five warrior! There is absolutely no problem with physical strength!"

Dolais coughed and stopped talking. This female rogue was never-ending.

He really wanted to leave here. The people of the Edward family came here, obviously not for Wayne and the others, but for him.

He tilted his head and signaled to Akso.

Akso was confused.

Dolais lowered his head and whispered, "Let's go out the back. I don't want to see those people."

Akso glanced at the entrance, blinked her bright eyes, and then smiled, "Then should I take this opportunity to blackmail you?"

Dolais curled his lips and turned to leave.

Behind the hall was the place where food and drinks were prepared. The people there saw Dolais enter and, seeing the clothes he was wearing, were somewhat apprehensive. But seeing that he was just passing through and leaving in a hurry, they were all confused, especially since he was also with a beautiful woman.

After Dolais left, some people immediately started gossiping, spreading rumors vividly.

...

Ayton entered the hall and glanced inside. He still had to give face to the King of the Northwest, the Rhine family. Today's main target was Dolais.

However, he had not yet seen him. There were too many people, and he was not a wizard, so he could not use perception to detect him.

One of the two people who came with him said at this time, "Is that Dolais a short but very energetic person?"

Ayton was surprised and said, "How would you know?"

The man curled his lips and said, "That person left from the back and is no longer in the hall. If we want to find him, we can chase him out now, but the person next to him is very powerful, and I am no match for him."

Ayton did not speak, but pondered for a moment and said, "Here, don't think about causing trouble. Those eight wizard towers are no joke. It is said that unless you are level eight, a single hit will seriously injure even a high-level level seven."

The man shrugged, "I'm not an idiot, why would I provoke him? Didn't you come to find him? Aren't you going to find him?"

Ayton shook his head, "Don't worry, I'll tell you later. Since he's gone, let's honestly participate in the banquet and get to know these people. Albis City will be another center in the Northwest in the future."

At this time, Wayne came to greet him, and Ayton immediately greeted him with a smile, "Greetings, Lord Wayne. I am Ayton from the Edward family. It is a pleasure to meet you."

As soon as Wayne came up, he heard such an opening remark!

People from the capital had come to his place?

He had long heard that people from the Edward family were coming, but he had never had the chance to meet them. Today, they had come uninvited.

He bowed slightly and said in surprise, "It's a pleasure, a pleasure. Please come in, please come in. If I had known you were still here, I would have invited you to my door."

Ayton's expression was slightly teasing, and there was also a hint of a wry smile, "We may have to be neighbors in the future. When the city lord's mansion opens, I will buy a piece of land here to live on."

Wayne was immediately shocked. This was no small matter.

Ayton suddenly smiled and said, "Let me introduce you. This is our family's wizard, a top-level level six wizard, Sakalan. This is Tim from the Peacock Orchid family, now a count."

Kasalan, who was talking to Ayton, bowed slightly at this time. He still had to respect the King of the Northwest, as for the others, it was just so-so.

Tim, the man from the Peacock Orchid family, also nodded slightly at this time. He said, "Greetings to the Rhine family. I am now a fallen noble, nothing much."

Although his expression was trying to be humble, it was still filled with arrogance.

Tim was a handsome man, and the women around him were now casting interested glances.

Tim seemed to appreciate this kind of gaze and smiled slightly at the surroundings.

The surrounding people were immediately surprised. A small Albis City had actually attracted two families from the capital to settle in. Was something going to happen here?

Carol, Anderson, and the others stood beside, their faces grave. These were all competitors.
