Chapter 382: Everyone Has A Price

Baron's Residence…

"A member of the Order is here?" the Princess asked. "Is father taking this matter into his own hands? Were you aware of this, Millie?"

The green-haired Dwarf shook her head.

"Your Highness, I am not aware of how the Order operates because they only take orders from the King," Millie replied. "However, I am very doubtful whether that Human is really under the order of His Majesty or not. After all, he mentioned that the one that sent him here was Nevreal."

"Nevreal? That old man really doesn't know when to just mind his own business." The Princess wrinkled her nose after hearing Nevreal's name. "I see. So, that person is here on behalf of my dear brother. Looks like we have some competition in our hands, Millie."

"It is as you say, Your Highness."

"Heh~ now this has suddenly become interesting. Millie, find that Human and tell him that I want to talk to him in private."

Millie thought that she had heard the Princess wrong, but knowing what kind of person the third Princess of the Kingdom of Gweliven was, she already had a hunch about what the Princess was up to.

"You want to bribe him to join our side?" Millie asked with a doubtful expression on her face.

The Princess looked at the green-haired Dwarf with a devilish smile before nodding her head.

"Everyone has a price, Millie," the Princess said. "No matter what amount of wealth or favor my brother promised him, tell him that I will double it. Naturally, there will be some conditions attached. However, I'm sure that we can smooth the details out once we meet."

Millie groaned internally. Just because the third Princess had been spoiled by His Majesty, the King, she thought that she could get away with everything she wanted using her father's backing.

The Princess had just turned fifteen this year, and she had already gained a lot of favors from possible suitors. This is quite understandable because she was someone who could easily make people like her with her irresistible charm.

Her long brown hair and hazel eyes had already won the hearts of many young nobles, who wished for her to become the Crown Princess of the Kingdom.

This also boosted her confidence, making her think that she was the one favored by the heavens to rule the land.

"As you wish, Your Highness," Millie reluctantly agreed to the Princess' orders.

Although she didn't like working with others, as long as the one she served became the monarch of the Dwarven Kingdom, she wouldn't mind turning a blind eye.

"I look forward to the good news, Millie."

"I will do my best, Your Highness."

Just as Millie was about to leave the Baron's Residence to look for Lux, she heard a commotion outside, which made her frown.

"It seems that we have some unexpected guests, Your Highness," Millie said as she stood up to walk towards the window.

The Princess' interest was piqued, so she also went to the window to look at what was happening outside.

A black carriage had arrived at the Baron's Residence, bearing no insignia whatsoever.

But, the thing that surprised Millie and the Princess the most was that two of the four Water Mages, who had been supplying the water supply of the city, emerged from the carriage.

A moment later, a chubby teenage Human came out of the carriage, which made Millie's body stiffen. It was none other than the Human that she had talked to an hour ago, making her wonder what the chubby young man was up to.

"Is that him?" the Princess asked as she looked at the chubby boy in the distance. "This is the first time I'm seeing a Human. Do all Humans look like him?"

Millie firmly shook her head. "No."

"Well, isn't this great?" the Princess smiled sweetly. "He saved us the trouble of looking for him."

Millie didn't make any comments and just simply nodded her head. Now that the one she was supposed to look for was already here, it was now up to the Princess to make the chubby human join her side.

The two watched from the window of their room, and they saw the Baron come out to personally meet the Human, who was said to be a supervisor sent by the King, to see if there were any changes in the drought that was plaguing his Barony.

"You must have had a long journey, Your Grace," the baron said with a flattering smile. "Please, come inside so that you can rest. We don't have much to offer, but we will do our best to make your stay as comfortable as possible."

Lux nodded his head like the important person he was and allowed the Baron to escort him inside the Residence.

Lux was the one who would be keeping an eye on the Baron's second son, while Cai and Keane were left at the inn because he needed them to handle a few things.

True to his word, the Baron made sure that Lux was treated like a VIP guest. He was introduced to the members of the Baron's family, allowing him to see the person he was looking for.

'Dark-brown hair and green eyes,' Lux thought. 'He does fit the description that Boss gave me.'

The Baron's second son was quite a handsome fellow. His good looks and curly hair had a certain appeal that could make any lady look at him fondly.

'But, that doesn't change the fact that he's a scum.' Lux picked up his tea cup and took a sip.

Since he had confirmed that the Baron's second son was indeed inside their residence, he didn't need to do anything reckless but simply ensure that he stayed inside the Wolfpine Barony for the duration of his mission.

'This is going to be a long wait,' Lux thought as he contemplated what he should do during his stay.

Just as the Half-Elf was about to place his cup back on the table, his eyes landed on a young lady who was walking down the stairs of the mansion.

The lady's aesthetics bordered between being adorable and being beautiful, which made the Half-Elf wonder how old she was.

However, after seeing the green-haired Dwarf that was walking a few steps behind the young lady, the Half-Elf immediately realized who this person was.

"Good day to you, Inspector," the young lady said with a smile. "This is the first time that we've met, so please, allow me to introduce myself."

The adorable Dwarf did a curtsy, before saying her name.

"My name is Anastasia Von Gweliven," Anastasia said while keeping the angelic smile on her face. "The third Princess of the Kingdom of Gweliven."
