Chương 166: Team Training Fiasco

Just as Lord Vervan was to answer, three newcomers swaggered into the training grounds. By the looks of them, they were completely nonchalant and unbothered by their late arrival. Turning his eyes to them, the Duke squinted his eyes dangerously.

"You three! You are now almost half an hour late! I hope you have a good excuse." 

"Your Grace, you must pardon us. The three of our families are close so we decided to ride together in a carriage to the training ground. However, on the way, our horses got scared by a snake on the road and were thrown into a disarray. It took a while to calm them and get back on track. We apologize for the inconvenience towards the others who had to wait for us." Taking a step forward, Keaton took the lead for the three of them.
