Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 101 Strange Impressions Increase

Just like those conspiracies about the witch, Rollin obviously knew what would happen to Backlund next, better than he did.

Medici's gaze returned to Klein. This little fellow, who was connected to Sefirah Castle and had been completely deceived by Rowling, was clearly genuinely worried about what would happen to Backlund. However, his teacher, who knew the whole truth, was clearly not prepared to tell him.

"How awful!" Medici curled his lips, then laughed and said, "Why should I tell you this, unless..."

His eyes fell on Luo Lin and said, "Please beg me!"

If you like to act like a lamb, then keep pretending!
Klein was visibly stunned for a second. He didn't mind asking Mr. Hong, who looked like an angel, for help, but the other party was clearly not coming for him.

Klein looked at Rowling and then at Medici, and suddenly realized something—Mr. Lucifer and Mr. Hong might really have a bad relationship.

Rowling raised an eyebrow. He met Medici's blood-red eyes for a moment, then curled his lips. He grabbed Klein beside him and said unhappily, "What the hell are you begging for? Sherlock, let's go. If he doesn't want to talk, then don't. At worst, I'll write to the teacher later!"

He never pretended to be a docile sheep, but a goat that would kick its hooves at the slightest disagreement.

Luo Lin looked back at Medici and added, "Mr. Xiaohong, I don't know what your relationship with my teacher is, but if you want to take your anger out on me, you're overthinking it. If you don't want to live with us, I'll write to the teacher and ask you to leave."

The implication is: don't make trouble, or get out of here if you do.

"Well, Mr. Hong, don't mind it. Jack was just being direct. He didn't mean to offend you. But if you really don't want to live with us, we can also write to Mr. Lucifer to negotiate." Klein tried to smooth things over, but from his words, it was clear that he still supported Rowling.

"Tsk, it turns out that the big one is just as hard to deal with as the small one." Medici curled his lips, but he was not disappointed. He was just trying it casually, and now he confirmed that even if Rowling was pretending to be an idiot, he was not someone who could be easily teased.

He then stepped forward and said, "Alright, don't be angry, it was just a joke. If you mind, as an apology, let me give you a hint!"

Medici paused here before lowering his voice and saying, "Augustus family, if anything major is going to happen in Backlund, it's bound to be related to Augustus. If you're interested, you can research it yourself, but I don't recommend you go and die."

Klein was shocked. Of course he knew the Augustus family, the royal family of the Kingdom of Loen.

So, Backlund's next major event is related to the Augustus family? A Loen version of "Why Did Your Majesty Revolt?"

All sorts of speculations flashed through Klein's mind, and for a moment he felt overwhelmed.

Rowling, however, leisurely snatched Klein's luggage and stuffed it along with his own to Medici, who was a step behind them. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xiaohong."

Medici looked at the bags at hand and raised his eyebrows. He said unhappily, "You really treat me as a nanny!"

Luo Lin smiled and said nothing, but used his eyes to express one sentence - "After all, you are a professional!"

As we all know, the red of the Red Priest is not only the red of war, but also the red of nanny. Medici has taken care of Amon since he was a child, and he can really be called a professional in taking care of cubs.

"Heh!" Medici could see through Rowling's teasing, and sneered, but still picked up the luggage.

It’s not that he was afraid of Luo Lin, but he was enduring humiliation for the Lord.

"So you see, Mr. Xiaohong is indeed a good person!" Luo Lin then turned and said to Klein. "Uh..." Klein didn't know what to say for a moment. He had a feeling that some kind of confrontation had occurred between the two of them in the short time just now.

But considering Jack's personality, this is not surprising - although Jack is not very vigilant in interpersonal communication, he is very sensitive to malice, so it is normal for him to confront Mr. Hong who obviously has malice towards him.

Jack has never been a soft persimmon that can be bullied.

In the end, Klein could only shake his head and decided to let them go.

The three of them then boarded a trackless carriage and soon arrived at Rowling's residence in Backlund, a small three-story villa.

Luo Lin took out the key, opened the door of the villa, and walked in while introducing the two people next to him: "This is my home. My master bedroom is on the far right of the second floor. Next to it is the teacher's bedroom. Sherlock, you can choose one of the two rooms on the left."

Luo Lin looked up at Medici again and asked with a smile, "I wonder where Mr. Xiaohong would like to live. If you have any special needs, we also have a basement here."

"Hehe, I live on the third floor." Medici could naturally hear what Rowling was saying, but he didn't care too much about it and just sneered.

"Okay, there are also four rooms on the third floor. Mr. Xiaohong can pick one." Rolin nodded, unconcerned. He then took the luggage from Medici and began to explain the layout of the entire house to the two of them. After the introduction, Rolin reached out and wiped the table. Seeing the thick layer of dust on it, he turned his head to look at Klein and Medici beside him and said seriously:

"But before we officially move in, I'm afraid we need to clean the house first."

"What? Are you so poor that you don't even have money to hire a maid?" Medici crossed his arms and spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"Yes, after all, with one more person eating for free, the money is bound to be insufficient. Perhaps Mr. Xiaohong wouldn't mind sponsoring us?" Rowling looked at Medici with a smile.

"Ha!" Medici sneered and did not answer.

Luo Lin had already taken out a broom from somewhere and handed it to Medici, saying, "If you don't want to sponsor us, then we should just sweep the floor!"

"...In ten minutes, someone will come to clean up." Medici glanced at the red broom in Rowling's hand, and finally said unhappily.

"Thank you!" So Luo Lin thanked him politely.

"Sherlock, come on, I'll take you to pick a room." Rowling pulled Klein beside him, and the two went up to the second floor. Klein quickly chose the room on the far left as his bedroom.

After choosing a room, Klein seemed to hesitate for a moment before saying, "Jack, if you really don't like Mr. Red, we can tell Mr. Lucifer."

Klein could naturally see that his friend and Mr. Red were disliking each other, and even Jack's aggression had increased significantly. He rarely acted in a sarcastic manner.

"Don't like it? No!" Luo Lin smiled when he heard this. He looked at Klein and said, "Although his words are not very pleasant, why not have an extra nanny? Klein, don't you notice that Mr. Hong only curses with his mouth, but his body is actually very honest? It's obvious that he knows how to take care of people."

"Uh..." Klein was silent for a few seconds, and had to admit that what Rowling said made sense.

Maybe Mr. Hong is really a good person with a tough mouth and a soft heart?
