Chapter 2312: I am a Cat II
(Adrian POV)
"Greetings, High Wizard Dore!" The guards at the entrance of the merchant guild building greeted the high wizard but they seem to only glare at Piggy Bank.
"Are you not going to greet the Avalon Branch Leader?" High Wizard Dore stated with a reprimanding tone.
The two guards look at each other and I could see that they are torn on what they need to do. It seems that they have been briefed by whatever entity has the most control while the Grand Merchant Leader was out. Still, they cannot ignore the words of High Wizard Dore as he is one of the most powerful forces that they have in the merchant guild.@@@@
"We greet the Avalon Branch Leader Piggy Bank!" The guards stated but one could hear that the greeting for High Wizard Dore had much more energy.
"It is fine. You do no have to force yourself with this as I do not want both of you to lose your jobs." Piggy Bank stated which is why I smacked his face with my tail.
"Oh! I almost forgot. The Avalon Branch Leader Piggy Bank will be bringing his beloved pet, Gatto, with us. This is one of the rarest breeds of cats in the world and the Lord of Avalon himself caught it for Avalon Branch Leader Piggy Bank as a token of their friendship." High Wizard Dore stated as he already jumped into the statement before the guards could ask.
"I will notify all of the high officials." One of the clerks stated as she vanished from my view as she entered the back room.
"So far, so good." I thought but it was too premature.
"You have the audacity to even come here in person." A young-looking man in adorned clothes stated as he pointed to Piggy Bank.
"Sir Peterson! That is not a way to greet a branch leader. Your rank is lower than Avalon Branch Leader Piggy Bank." High Wizard Dore stated loudly for all to hear, and murmurs could be heard all around.
"Why do you defend this fiend! He is the reason why grandfather is dead!" Peterson stated as I could see he is very overwhelmed by emotion.
I could see from the way the young man speaks and his emotional aura that he is not being manipulated. This is what he is genuinely feeling, and he is now lashing out because he saw the target of the accusations even if there was no evidence as of yet. I can also feel the emotion of this chunky friend of mine as his sadness washed over me the moment he saw the young man.
"I am truly sorry for your loss, Sir Peterson. I truly am but I am not the one that killed your grandfather. I have been in Avalon this entire time when I received the accusation letter. I was even there when the initial investigators arrive. I was heavily monitored the entire time this unfortunate thing happened." Piggy Bank replied.
"Heavily monitored? All of the investigators that came to gather evidence from you are now suffering from strange illnesses that can only be called described as a curse. Even priests cannot treat them as of now because they can only be alleviated from the pain." A woman that has eastern continent clothing stated as she had others behind her that looked strong. "Please keep those assumptions to yourself, Lady Goldenclaw." High Wizard Dore warned.
