"Captain, Field Marshal Garp wants you to go see him!"

Not long after leaving Joey's room, Sergeant Medes suddenly turned back and whispered to him.

"ah?"

Joey was jolted awake; this name was something she couldn't remain calm about.

This is like an ordinary person in a feudal society, who toils in the fields every day, and suddenly someone tells you that the emperor wants to see you, and in the palace you've never been to before. The shock you feel must be like an atomic bomb being dropped on you.

Who are you talking about?

"Marshal Garp!"

"He's come to Greyhearth?"

"Yes, I've been here for a while now. I even went to your room to look for you yesterday!"

"What? Yesterday?"

Joey carefully recalled yesterday's events. It seemed that he had been bullied by those three female elf hooligans all day, and he didn't remember anyone coming to find him.

"Yes, just yesterday!"

Sergeant Medes turned around, not looking at Joey again, and said with absolute certainty.

"Why didn't you tell me sooner? Why didn't you notify me earlier? Such a high-ranking leader is coming to inspect grassroots work, didn't you give me time to prepare?"

Joey quickened his pace, rushed in front of Medes, and blocked his way, his emotions running high.

Although he no longer had to worry about food and clothing, Joey still retained some of his innate reverence for leaders. Moreover, he now had a permanent position, a job he had dreamed of in his previous life, and he was unwilling to give it up so easily.

"I...this..."

Medes was taken aback by Joey's excitement and was momentarily speechless, unsure of what to say.

"Alas, my political career is over!"

Joey looked up at the sky and sighed, suddenly feeling a sense of regret for unfulfilled ambitions.

"Captain, I remember now! You haven't been in town the whole time, have you? I've been looking for you for ages!"

"Well……"

After being reminded of this, Joey realized that he had indeed been practicing his hunter skills outside the city, and it seemed that he had really misunderstood Medes.

"Alright, I won't blame you anymore!"

"Um... what does Field Admiral Garp want with me? Is there some inside information?"

Joey moved closer to Medes, his tone immediately changing, his expression even becoming somewhat ingratiating.

"I really don't know, but it should be related to those three female elves, that's just my guess!"

Sergeant Medes, seeing that Joey had suddenly asked him this question so seriously, also gave his speculation.

"Three female elves?"

Joey didn't recall ever mentioning the female elf to Sergeant Medes. When he heard Medes bring it up himself, he raised an eyebrow, looking extremely confused.

Seeing Joey's expression, Medes suddenly realized that his words had betrayed the bearded man.

"Who told you there were three female elves in my room?"

Joey noticed the change in Medes' expression and immediately asked him a question.

"Did the bearded man tell you that?"

Joey only showed off to the bearded man once, so naturally he put the title of the prime suspect on the bearded man's head.

"Uh...yes, but Sam didn't mean it, he just let it slip!"

Medes tried to plead with the bearded man to lessen Joey's resentment towards him.

"As expected of a bearded man, he really has a lisp!"

Joey was indeed unhappy, but he also understood that he hadn't expected the bearded man to keep it a secret after telling him. He just thought that since he had told him, the bearded man would at least keep the secret for a few days. He didn't expect that what he had just told him yesterday would come out of Medes' mouth first thing this morning, which meant that the bearded man would tell Medes even sooner.

"Um... Captain Joey, why don't you go see Field Admiral Garp first!"

Sergeant Medes changed the subject. He needed to get Joey to Marshal Garp as soon as possible. This would fulfill the task assigned by Marshal Garp, and he also hoped that Joey would have a pleasant conversation with Marshal Garp so that he wouldn't have to cause trouble for the bearded man again.

"Alright, with such a high-ranking leader coming down here, I still have to maintain a proper attitude!"

Joey thought there was some truth to what Medes said.

"By the way, you still need to go to the kitchen and help me prepare the ingredients. I'll go see Marshal Garp by myself!"

Joey thought for a moment, then took out a pen and paper from his pocket and wrote down the ingredients he needed. At the same time, he asked Medes for directions to Marshal Cap's room.

Medes took the ingredient list and headed towards the kitchen, while Joey went in the other direction.

...

"Halt! No passage ahead!"

Joey walked through a long corridor toward the depths of the castle, and after turning another corner, he was stopped by two soldiers.

"Brother, it's me, Joey Brown. I'm the one who brought your Lady Catherine back!"

Joey wasn't surprised to be suddenly stopped, since this place was close to the residence of the city lord and Catherine, and the security was naturally much stronger. Medes must have been stopped before.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Joey, but anyone without the city lord's authorization is prohibited from entering!"

The guard recognized Joey, but still stuck to his principles, so he seemed to be a good guard.

"I'm here to talk to someone, and then I'll leave!"

"The person you're looking for is..."

"yes……"

Joey hesitated as well. Sergeant Medes said that Field Marshal Cap had also come without telling the others and that he couldn't tell anyone else.

"This person's identity must be kept secret!"

"Then we can't let you pass!"
