…

Dinner was served by a servant.

Before the servant opened the covers, Annie had already smelled the mouthwatering aroma. In the iron box, there was a pile of thick bread which was baked golden. Just one glimpse, and she knew that the bread was made up of fine wheat flour that had been kneaded and fermented after being peeled. Besides, there was also a small packet of butter and a pot of meat broth, which was enough for five people to enjoy.

“The spoons and plates are all in the wooden cupboard. Tomorrow morning, breakfast will also be served, so you don’t need to keep leftovers,” the servant said, “Before getting a Resident Identity Card (ID), you can’t leave the Foreign Affairs Building at your will. Additionally, you aren’t allowed to go to the basement. If you want to practice your abilities, the rooftop is available. There’s a service room on the first floor, where I sleep. If you need anything, you’re free to come to me. Unlike hotels, all services here are free.”

The five people were all in a daze and did not even regain their senses after the servant bowed and left.

“Is this the hospitality of the great nobles? It’s exactly the same as the play,” Amy was the first to sigh and said, “except for some of the lines that needed to be changed.”

“Such as?” Broken Sword and Hero asked curiously.

“Like Your Honorable Excellency, it’s my pleasure to serve you… that’s how it usually starts.”

“We aren’t the noble, so of course he didn’t talk to us like that.” No.76 smiled gently. “Anyway, let’s eat first. I’m starving.”

“You made a good point.” They all swallowed their saliva in agreement.

This was not good. Was the ruler of the Kingdom of Graycastle using delicious food to seduce them? Amy began to feel concerned. It looked like the king was trying to rope them in, but the leader of the Witch Union did not even ask them about their abilities. Their behaviors were so inconsistent that she could not figure out their real intention. Since she was not alone and there were four other people, she had to be more cautious and not commit mistakes that she had made before.

Undoubtedly, the safest way was to stay away from the Western Region. The church had been defeated, so their greatest enemy was gone. What they needed most was to find a village or a small town closer to bigger cities so that they could live there with hidden identities, just like what they had done in the Kingdom of Dawn.

However, this method would not work now.

She could not help but sigh when she saw No.76 stumbling beside the table. Anyway, Witch Union was capable of healing the wounded and the prospect they had described was inviting. Now that there was a ray of hope that Hero could stand up again, she could not simply take them away.

Well, I’d better eat.

When Annie put a piece of bread with butter into her mouth, her mouth was instantly filled with a glutinous soft sweetness which she had never tasted before. The bread was very delicate without any gravel and it melted in her mouth the minute she bit into it. She did not even need to chew and the bread flowed easily into her throat.

Damn it! They could easily be seduced by the delicious food.

Although she was thinking like this, she could not stop her hand from grabbing another piece of bread.

Almost each one in the room was busy eating the bread and no one was talking.

They let out a deep breath when only crumbs were left in the iron box.

“Will we still be able to eat such food in the future?” Broken Sword licked all her fingers reluctantly.
