Chapter 348: Challenging A City Lord (1/2)
”That mage pin..! An Arch Mage!” the city guard shouted in disbelief.
This city guard was a City Guard Captain. All his life, he believed that Arch Mages were people he could never dream of meeting, but today, an Arch Mage was standing in front of him.
”Fraud! I don't believe it!” the city guard captain shouted.
”This is true! Don't you know that a mage pin wouldn't work if it's not in the hands of the owner?” Olgar reasoned.
”I… Inform Healer Natasha!”
The city guard captain was stumped, so he turned around and ordered one of his subordinates to call Healer Natasha. He also knew that mage pins are impossible to be faked.
”Yes, Sir!” a guard responded and entered back into the city.
Meanwhile, the other city guards around them took their stances with their swords because they were nervous as they could be against an Arch Mage.
Lawrend's entourage waited patiently. Five minutes later, an elderly woman walked out of the gate.
It was none other than Healer Natasha. Lawrend, Olgar, and Aleshia immediately recognized her.
”Oh my?”
Healer Natasha stared at Lawrend and Olgar with an amused look on her face. Suddenly, her body morphed, and she turned back to her youthful appearance.
As she was wearing a loose cloak, it perfectly fitted her when she transformed.
The city guards around them opened their mouths widely in shock. They couldn't believe that an old woman suddenly turned into a beautiful lady in front of them.
She walked towards Lawrend's group and stopped in front of them.
”Lawrend, Olgar, and Aleshia, it has been a while,” Natasha said.
”Healer Natasha, nice to meet you again,” Lawrend replied.
”Healer Natasha.” Olgar nodded his head in greeting.
”Thank you again for helping my little sister,” Aleshia said.
”What brings all of you back?” Natasha asked with a smile on her face.
She observed Elena, Aezel, Humility, Amene, Grape, and Ramiela before briefly glancing at Kenova.
”I'm now an Arch Mage,” Olgar replied to her.
”Oh, right. They called me because there was an Arch Mage here.”
”And I want to take over control of this city,” Olgar continued.
”Pretty ambitious, are we?” Natasha replied and squinted her eyes at him.
”Yes. This is where I was born, and I want to take care of it,” Olgar replied.
”Interesting. I was also born here. So you're saying that you want to challenge me?” Natasha asked with a raised eyebrow.
”Yes. I want to challenge you,” Olgar replied.
”What would you lose?” Natasha asked.
”I will give up and not bother you anymore,” Olgar replied.
”Really? Let's discuss this further inside,” Natasha replied casually.
She led them inside, and they rode a short carriage ride to the Noble District and into her mansion there.
”Welcome to my humble abode,” Natasha said as they entered her home.
It was a wooden mansion with extravagant decorations, and it was the symbol of wealth in this city.
