Chapter 168 I don't know

Ten days have passed since the attack on Apprentice City.

By this time, all the damage to the houses caused by the magicians' battle had been repaired.

Pedestrians on the street still felt lingering fear when they talked about the attack ten days ago.

For the past few days, the City of Apprentices has strictly prohibited everyone from leaving or entering, in order to find out if any have slipped through the net.

Everyone was like a frightened rabbit, easily frightened by the slightest disturbance.

At this moment, Dorothy felt as if the sky had fallen.

Lafite walked gracefully to the door.

"What are you still standing there like an idiot at the door for? Aren't you going to invite me in?"

As she spoke, she gently placed her hand on Dorothy's chest.

Anne, the maid behind her, took two suitcases off the carriage.

"—Please come in, Your Highness."

Dorothy stepped aside and watched as Raffi and Anne entered the house.

She let out a soft breath.

"Don't be nervous."

We still don't know Lafite's purpose in coming here.

After Dorothy closed the door, she looked at Raffi, who was sitting elegantly in the living room.

"Hey, weren't you at the Royal Magic Academy? Why are you back?"

Dorothy wanted to help make a cup of tea, but Anne had already done that for her.

Raffi held a teacup in his hand and looked at Dorothy with a smile.

Dorothy touched her face, feigning anger: "Why are you laughing so disgustingly? Is there something on my face?"

"No, not at all." Raffi shook his head and took a sip of tea.

"You haven't answered my question yet." Dorothy felt a little guilty under Laffey's gaze, but she quickly remembered that she hadn't done anything wrong, so she glared back at Laffey, and the two stared at each other.

Raffi handed the teacup to her, and Anne bent down slightly, using the tray in her hand to support the teacup in Raffi's hand.

Raffi crossed her left leg and placed it on her right leg; the movement was so large that her skirt fluttered.

Unfortunately, Raffi was wearing a long dress, so Dorothy couldn't see the beautiful scenery.

"Because the City of Apprentices was attacked, my father was worried about my safety outside, so he specially made me suspend my studies and come back."

"And I happened to overhear that my father was planning to find the mysterious expert who made a move in the City of Apprentices. Since I had nothing to do recently, I took on this task."

While speaking, Raffi's eyes never left Dorothy, as if he wanted to observe Dorothy's reaction.

Dorothy, on the other hand, forced herself to keep a straight face, not wanting Laffey to notice anything amiss.

"I heard that the mysterious magician is even more powerful than the headmaster and Uncle Kane."

"Principal Gareth is a mage, and Uncle Kane is also a peak mage. Someone stronger than either of them must be a Grandmaster, right?"

Although Raffi was still staring at Dorothy, the princess's gaze became somewhat uncertain.

Although Raffi knew Dorothy's identity as a witch, in her impression, Dorothy didn't seem that strong.

Although Raffi had doubts on the way here that Dorothy was the mysterious sorceress.

But these are just speculations; everything needs evidence.

Moreover, Raffi came here specifically to investigate this matter.

"Anyway, I happened to have nothing to do at the moment, so I took on the mission to investigate the mysterious magician. The army came with me, but their mission was to escort those captured enemy magicians."

Raffi looked around, somewhat curious, and asked, "Where are the others?"

Seeing that Raffi had changed the subject himself, Dorothy forced a smile and replied with a serious expression, "They've been out helping rebuild the Apprentice City these past few days."

Upon hearing this, Raffi looked enlightened and nodded, "Oh, I see."

Dorothy thought for a moment and then added, "Anna practices magic outside the city."

Raffi knew Dorothy's interpersonal relationships well.

"Anna? Oh, that elf. She doesn't seem interested in anyone except Dorothy."

"Um...that's just her personality." Dorothy didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Anna is very cold towards humans, and the only reason she pays attention to me is because she mistakenly thinks I am a witch.

Although Dorothy has explained this matter, everyone who meets her seems to have the same misunderstanding.

Let them think of themselves as whatever they want now; Dorothy doesn't want to correct them anymore.

Raffi pointed a finger at his temple, seemingly deep in thought.

"Dorothy, do you really not know who that mysterious sorcerer is?" Raffi asked again.

Dorothy shook her head vigorously, denying it: "I don't know, I don't know."

She quickly issued a double denial.

However, Dorothy's appearance only made Raffi look at her suspiciously.

Of course, in the end, Raffi decided to believe Dorothy.

"Alright then, since you don't know, I'll ask someone else."

The "other person" that Raffi was referring to was Gareth.

After all, Gareth, as the headmaster of the Academy City, knows the situation here best.

Furthermore, Raffi also needs to ask Gareth about how the enemy entered the City of Apprentices.

Whether it was Gareth's own negligence or a flaw in the defensive magic circle, these questions need to be clarified to prevent a similar situation from happening again.

After all, they were lucky this time, with the help of a mysterious magician who killed the opponent's strongest fighter. But what about next time?

"Let's stop here for now." With that, Raffi stood up, seemingly preparing to go to Gareth's place.

Dorothy silently prayed for Gareth, hoping he would be lucky enough to escape this ordeal and that he wouldn't betray her.

However, just as Dorothy was preparing to happily see Raffy off, she noticed two suitcases next to the sofa, and neither Raffy nor Anne intended to take them with them.

"Hmm? Your Highness Raffi, what's in that suitcase? Aren't you taking it with you?"

Dorothy held up two fingers and pointed to the suitcase on the ground.

She didn't know why she had a bad feeling.

As expected, Raffi's answer surprised Dorothy.

Raffi looked at Dorothy and gave her a bright smile.

"Ah, those are my clothes. I'll be living with you guys for a while after that."

Upon hearing Raffi's answer, Dorothy felt a wave of dizziness wash over her.

As Raffi and Anne left, Dorothy slumped weakly onto the sofa. She turned to look at the suitcase full of Raffi's clothes and sighed helplessly.

"Sigh, if only Raffi wasn't as pretty, then I could have the heart to reject her."

At this moment, Dorothy felt incredibly resentful that she was a sucker for good looks.

Dorothy would never refuse a pretty girl, as long as her request wasn't too outrageous.

Moreover, Raffi is the kind of beautiful girl with a slightly cunning side.

Sometimes, the slight mischievous smile that appears at the corner of his mouth is even more captivating.

Thinking of Raffi's face, Dorothy looked at the suitcase placed not far from her feet and slowly stretched out her right hand.
