Volume 1 Chapter 94 (1/2)

Registration

The small incident on the road didn’t take much time. Rather, because this matter had scattered the crowd around them, it allowed the cavalcade to move much faster.

After ten minutes, the cavalcade finally arrived at their destination, Banta City’s office in Anvilmar City.

Of course, this was just what Xu Yi called this place. Actually this was City Lord Count Sean Samo’s other manor in Anvilmar City.

Count Sean Samo had a residence in Anvilmar City, but since he was elevated to Banta City’s City Lord, he had sold his original residence and changed to this smaller manor.

Other than the dwelling the Lord Count used when he came to Anvilmar City, the other small yards was used as residences for people from Banta City the Lord Count sent to Anvilmar City to do things. So, this place was called the Anvilmar Banta City office by Xu Yi.

Originally, Xu Yi’s trip to Anvilmar was just to take the Magicians Guild’s certification exam and didn’t have the right to live here. However, his majesty had summoned Xu Yi, so after the Lord Count deliberated on it, he had Xu Yi live in this residence after going to Anvilmar City to make it easier for his majesty to summon him.

This was Xu Yi’s first time in Anvilmar City, so he wasn’t familiar with the place and the people, so naturally he wouldn’t reject the Lord Count’s suggestion.

Moreover, this made it easier for Xu Yi to reject Baron Hannas and Viscount Leslie’s help, avoiding owing them a favour.

The housekeeper of the office had already been notified by Count Sean and seeing the personal letter from Count Sean that Xu Yi had, as well as Viscount Leslie with him, they immediately warmed up to Xu Yi and welcomed him in.

But after seeing the six horse carriages behind them, the housekeeper and his subordinates were a bit surprised.

Those six horse carriages were clearly freight carriages, only they were tightly wrapped up so they couldn’t see what was inside at all.

Looking from the outside, the things inside seemed quite sharp and a bit fierce.

“Put these things in a safe place, you mustn’t lose them and it’s best if you don’t let anyone approach, do you understand?” Xu Yi pointed at the things in the horse carriages and seriously said to the housekeeper, “That’s right, be careful when you’re unloading them, don’t break them.”

Seeing how serious Xu Yi was, the housekeeper kept nodding.

Count Sean’s personal letter had said to treat Xu Yi like they would treat him. This housekeeper was a trusted confidant of the Lord Count, but it was his first time being ordered like this. Naturally he could tell that this normal looking youth was very important to the Lord Count, so he was very respectful to Xu Yi.

After the servants had carefully moved the cargo from the six horse carriages and into the storage room under Xu Yi’s orders, Viscount Leslie rejected Xu Yi and the housekeeper’s idea of staying and directly left.

Xu Yi enjoyed a sumptuous meal in the office before sleeping for a while. When he woke up, it was already afternoon.

Seeing that it was still early, Xu Yi decided to go out for a walk.

He waved his hand to the housekeeper to reject his suggestion of preparing someone to accompany him. Xu Yi left the office and began to leisurely wander around Anvilmar City.

Of course, he wasn’t wandering around aimlessly.

While walking in the street, Xu Yi kept looking around.

He was different from the other people wandering the streets. Xu Yi wasn’t looking at the beauties nor was he looking for fine products. He kept looking around, not letting a single corner escape his gaze, as he focused on whether this place was hiding magic machines or not.

According to what Xu Yi knew, Banta City was less than four hundred kilometers away from Anvilmar City. Based on the scale from earth, this was like they were next door neighbours and they should exchange all kinds of news.

But based on the situation in reality, because of the difficulty in transport and the limits on information transfer methods, the magic machines that were all the rage in Banta City that was four hundred kilometers away and its surrounding cities had not reached Anvilmar at all.

“It seems like this place is still virgin ground waiting to be developed.” Xu Yi sighed in his heart, not knowing whether he should be happy or disappointed.

He was happy because he didn’t see a single magic machine in Anvilmar City. This meant that as long as he could sell the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s magic machines here, he could dig out a large market.

He was disappointed because of how slow the world was responding to the changes he made. After a few months, there wasn’t any signs of changing appearing in Anvilmar at all.

“Such heavy responsibilities.” Xu Yi gave a sigh. After finishing his short market research, he went to a small shop to ask about where the Magicians Guild was and quickly set off.

If it was said that one could find magicians wearing their magic robes in any part of Anvilmar City, when Xu Yi came to the Magicians Guild to the west of Anvilmar, he found that there were all kinds of people in magic robes here and it was very hard for him to find a normal person.

Xu Yi looked around and found that not far away was the group of youths wearing uniforms he had seen on the street before.

They were currently gathered and were listening to a magician that was in his forties talking about something.

Looking at them, the middle aged magician was probably the teacher in charge of them and he was currently telling the students some things they needed to pay attention to.

Looking at the excited appearance of the children, a scene of himself in elementary school and middle school going on his spring field trips appeared in Xu Yi’s mind. He couldn’t help revealing a smile as he looked at them a few more times before heading to the Magicians Guild.

There were just too many people here and Xu Yi wasted quite a bit of energy before he came in.
