The next morning, Sean was still lying in bed.
Lucille was worried that Sean wouldn't be able to fall asleep after waking up last night, but she didn't expect him to wake up late as usual today...
Since coming to this world, Sean has always lived as a noble. With many excellent conditions, his living standard is higher than that of ordinary people no matter what.
As for Lucille, she worked on a slave merchant ship. Her conditions were not that good. It was just that they had gradually improved in the past few days. However, in order to repay Sean, Lucille had been taking care of Sean's daily life over the years.
Lucille is the one who prepares changing clothes, mending shoes and socks, or outfits for the changing seasons.
And today is no different...
As long as Sean hasn't woken up yet, Lucille will go and boil some water in advance, and then see what the hotel's breakfast is for today.
As I was walking around the room, I suddenly noticed the purple crystal on the table...
She took a closer look and thought it was a very ordinary thing.
It doesn't look good, and its color isn't as bright as those gemstones. Why is my mentor so obsessed with it?
Ever since Lucille was old enough to understand, she always felt that her mentor seemed to be looking for something. He had been constantly changing places since many years ago, and he didn't stay in each place for long. Every time he went, he would be interested in the local library and ancient knowledge.
Lucille had asked about this matter many times, but unfortunately the instructor never explained it seriously.
Before, I always thought that my ability was too low so I kept it to myself and practiced magic hard for this reason... But now I feel that my level is very high, and the magic I master has become more diverse, but unfortunately the instructor still doesn't want to tell me.
She walked to the table, picked up the stone and looked at it carefully, but did not find anything unusual.
Strange,
I looked back and saw my mentor was still sleeping!
There was nothing unusual about this thing, so how could my mentor know its secret? And last night, he suddenly said he wanted to go to the plateau, the roof of the world.
How did he know this?
A bunch of questions that Lucille couldn't figure out.
That’s all!
She put the stone back to its original place. Since her mentor was unwilling to say it, he must have his reasons. Lucille had achieved what she has today because of Sean's gift, so she was very grateful to the mentor in front of her.
There must be something else, that's why he doesn't want to tell me... I comfort myself in my heart.
The hotel was very quiet in the morning.
Lucille went downstairs to get some water. At this time, only a few shop assistants would get up to clean.
Although most hotels have their doors open, the light inside is poor, mainly because the windows are rarely open... On the one hand, this is for the privacy of the guests, and on the other hand, it is also because there is a fear that too many thieves will jump in through these windows.
Therefore, the environment in most hotels is dim. There will be bright lights during the day, and only lamps can be turned on in the evening.
In the morning, there is always a lingering smell of leftover alcohol in the room...
"Miss, you're up so early?!" a hotel waiter who was cleaning said after seeing Lucille coming downstairs.
Although we live in a relatively prosperous city port, not every hotel is crowded. Usually, there are very few people here when it is not the peak harvest season, and there are only a few people checking in every day.
Besides, this girl with silver-white hair is so beautiful, it's hard to forget her...
"Yes." Lucille replied kindly.
The shop assistants were stunned by her smile. They had never seen such a charming yet kind girl before.
"Do you... do you need anything? Although it's morning, the kitchen has already prepared food and other things. If you need anything, I'll bring them to you." said the shop assistant.
Although he appreciates the other person's beauty, he is very self-aware of his own appearance.
I remember that the person who came with him yesterday was a handsome man with an aristocratic temperament.
No matter what the relationship between the two is, it has already revealed their circle. Such a big shot, except when staying in the hotel, otherwise I would have no chance to meet him, so of course I would not have any other thoughts.
Just trying to be as gentlemanly as possible...
Maybe it's because of my inferiority complex, but being able to talk and laugh with such a person seems to bring me great satisfaction.
"Isn't this left over from yesterday?"
Of course, Lucille had no idea what the shop assistant was thinking at the moment, and she just responded according to what he said.
"Of course not. We would never do that. Although some customers like to eat reheated dishes, we will definitely make them from scratch if you ask us to."
"Then prepare some breakfast for you guys and send it up," said Lucille.
"Okay!"
The answer was clear and concise.
"By the way, Miss. If you are going out today, I suggest you don't go too far..." He suddenly seemed to remember something and said hurriedly.
"Why?"
"It's all because of what happened yesterday. Someone stole something from the warehouse area at the harbor and murdered two people. They say the identities of Borg soldiers were found on those two people. What was originally a common incident has now escalated to a national level."
Lucille was surprised by the shop assistant's words.
Of course she knew about the two dead people. After all, she and her mentor were watching them fight on the roof.
I didn’t expect it was from Borg!
"Are you sure it's the Borg?"
"That's right. I've received firsthand information. The Lord is probably having a headache right now. You know, Borg is the most powerful country in our region. Although it's quite far away, if a soldier dies in the city, the king will definitely hold them accountable. There will be more city guards these days, so it's best not to travel too far."
It's easy to tell that Lucille is from another place with her looks, so this is a piece of advice.
"I see. Thank you."
He answered and took advantage of the time to prepare some hot water for Sean and quickly brought it over.
At this time, Sean also woke up...
"Teacher, come and wash your face. I just heard an important piece of news while I was down there."
"What?" Sean looked at the other person with sleepy eyes.
"The two people who died in the warehouse yesterday were Borg soldiers. The city lord is now searching for them. What should we do next?"
Sean had already heard about the identities of the two people during his previous investigations, and he was just repeating it now.
"It's okay, it won't take too long. Just like I said, when those idle guys have captured enough people in the next few days, we can just leave directly. It's best to take an airship. It's faster that way!" Sean said.
