章 210: Modified Quest

Astaroth reluctantly climbed into the carriage behind the mage. He still didn't know his name, and was quite reluctant to scan him.

The ride was silent and quick. The mage didn't utter a word, and Astaroth did the same.

They were close to where he needed to be, but he probably wouldn't have found it, since no one would help him. Astaroth heard the guards call out their presence to the gatemen.

"Lord General Hakim Enzio, and one guest! Here to see Baron Duncan!"

The gates started opening after a few moments, and the carriage rode into the courtyard. Astaroth looked out the window as they did and noticed something.

There was a shimmer of magic that spanned the entire sky over the residence, originating from the walls around the estate. He found this weird, since this was the noble district.

Who would need this kind of measure if they were already in a fortified district?

"So you noticed," the mage sitting in front of him said.
