Chapter 181: Getting dressed

“Good day, Mr Wayland I presume?”

“Ah yes, that’s me…”

Roland wasn’t at his best, his face was covered in sweat as he had just walked out of the workshop to get some fresh air It was still the middle of the day but he didn’t really care if people saw his dirty face All the craftsrime

Before hiet a home visit from While his clothes were different now, thesome

Announcement

s at the town square, he had seen hi some speeches Even when the new lord showed up this man was there

“Good, Mr Wayland I won’t take e”

The man looked more like an old butler now than a citywith a vest and white gloves In those gloves, he was holding a letter that had a seal with the emblem of the Valerian household

“This is?”

“It’s a letter from Lord Arthur Valerian, the lord hopes that you respond positively to his call, the details are included in the letter, please read through it with haste”

Roland just looked at the sealed letter while spacing out for a olem that he sent to the new noble was probably the reason for this letter If this was a reason for joy or despair would only be revealed when he read through it but maybe this butler could answer some questions first

“The Lord calls for me?”

“I’m afraid that I’m not allowed to relinquish any more information, I have only been tasked to deliver this letter thus I will bid you farewell Mr Wayland”

The old raciously before him This reminded him of the old butler from the Arden estate, both of the men had a similar air around the the speeches he seemed more relaxed Now on the other hand it looked like a switch had been flipped and he was now role-playing as a proper high-class butler

“Ah yes, good day…”

Ferdinand turned around and started walking away Not far away he saw three people holding spears standing next to the forest There were obviously guards frouards

‘Maybe I should clear out some trees…’

In the past, he decided to clear out a path towards his store Without a road, it would be ih the dense forest It was fine now as it was just the butler, but some nobles would find it offensive if they needed to walk through the forest to get here

The people that delivered the e left, Elodia quickly peeked her head out of the store while Roland was looking at the letter

“Wasn’t that the Mayor?”

“I think it was”

Elodia looked down at the ite the next question

“Did he come to deliver that?”

“It seems so”

While he didn’t think there would be so in it, he wasn’t sure Maybe the new lord figured out his true identity and was trying to blackhly unlikely as he wasn’t anyone famous when he left the Arden estate

Besides his closest fanize hie Probably half his family members would have trouble, Robert was somewhat different as the two had er

His two older brothers and sisters only rew lesser and lesser with time Their father was quite busy with military work and did not stay at the estate too much Only when he returned would they sit down to eat but even then,as they were busy with the knight academy

“It’s a letter froh it alone”

Thankfully Elodia didn’t prod the issue and just turned around Roland was even considering reading the letter in front of her to further their trust but he wouldn’t be given a chance They weren’t ree of confidentiality was still out on the table Just like she didn’t pry into his history before he arrived in this city, so did he

“Let’s see then…”

After Elodia left he decided to go back to his house and open the letter With somewhat sweaty pal

“… What is that guy thinking?”

The letter was filled with floords and somewhat hard to read If he was a cootten a headache after going through the first few state of the letter, the person naolem that he had sent seeraph of praise, he finally arrived at the meat and potatoes of this letter It was actually a call for a business offer

‘It has cofully barred from participation at our Valerian auction house, I would wish to discuss this issue further…’

It looked like the lord had looked into his ban from the auction house Roland did know that the Valerian household was the real owner of that establish another chance

‘So in short he liked the golem so much that he sees a potential business opportunity?’

Arthur Valerian was a new player in this growing city It was normal for him to not have made any contracts with the dwarven union or any other powerful merchants He could very well unban him from the auction house to allow him to reach a broader customer base if he so wished

‘The question is, ould he be willing to ith me over the dwarves? Couldn’t they just supply him with similar wares?’

Roland wasn’t really sure what Arthur’s angle here was While he could o for a lot, he was still just one reat as he would not be able to supply the auction house with constantly golemic constructs

On the other hand, the dwarves could produce more in bulk as they had her leveled sainst the auction house they ht decide to not use it at all They had their own shops in which their wares could just sit on the shelves

They didn’t really need the auction house at which they also needed to share soood place to drop off some wares as there was a certain spectacle to it So hich did inflate the prices

‘Does he know so I don’t?’

From Roland’s standpoint, if people knew his true level and his special class they would probably be willing to invest ed to become a tier 3 Master Runes on his quick progress? Did he want to entrap hi some research?
