Chapter 279 Meeting Nobles (1)



This was the neighbourhood that was specially made for the nobles, so it was a place that commoners couldn't come to. Naturally this place was kept very clean by the people that were hired by the nobles that ran this place.

The inn that we arrived at was also a very luxurious and clean one, but this inn was a bit special.

That was because as soon as we arrived, we were immediately welcomed by the staff of the inn.

The note that the captain of the guard at the gate had handed us were directions to this inn.

So it could be said that this inn had been specially prepared to welcome us.

But things didn't seem as beautiful as it did on the surface. After all, no one would book an entire inn just to welcome us without any ulterior motives.

Scar had been hesitating about whether to come to this inn or not, but I had been curious about who had called us here. There was nothing to lose from meeting this person, rather I would be able to get more information from meeting them than avoiding them.

However, the person that had called us here didn't reveal themselves right away.

The staff just welcomed us and then guided us to our rooms.

Naturally, the rooms that we were given were separate.

"They want to separate us, huh?" I said under my breath.

Scar knitted his brows when he saw this, but I waved my hand to show that it was fine.

So in the end, Scar and Shaka took the rooms on the left and right while leaving the room in the middle to me.

Just like this, we were able to get a proper night's rest.

The problems came the following morning.

When we came down to the inn's restaurant for breakfast, we found that there were already several people that were sitting there. Based on the clothes that they were wearing, it was clear that not a single one of them had a simple status.

In fact, they even watched us out of the corner of their eyes when we came in.

It was clear that we were the center of attention in this restaurant.

Though that really wasn't strange since Scar had already explained what the situation would be like in the capital. It was also the reason why we had accepted the invite in the first place.

When we arrived at the table, we found that there were already people sitting there waiting for us. With the way that they sat on opposite sides of the table, it was clear that they didn't get along with each other.

I narrowed my eyes to look at the two sides before sitting down without any fear. Shaka and Scar on the other hand hesitated a bit before sitting down beside me.

The ones on my right were the ones to speak first. Their representative was a balding middle aged man who looked like a typical noble.

No, with his appearance, he looked like one of those nobles that looked friendly but turned out to be evil in the end. Though I really couldn't say he was evil, that was just the feeling that I got from him.

It was confirmed when he spoke that he really did have this kind of personality.

"Baron Zwein, it is an honour to meet you. I've long heard about your name and I must say that I am not disappointed." This balding middle aged man said with a friendly smile on his face.

However, the only thing that passed through my mind was…

Snake.

That was the only way that I could see him because I recognized this kind of behaviour.

After all, I once had a friend that was very similar to this balding middle aged man, so I knew what to look for when it came to people like this. And by friend…I naturally meant someone from my past life…

The most important thing was their eyes.

No matter how well they tried to hide it, it would be impossible to hide it completely in their eyes. People like this would always have a strange sense of pride and you could see it right away when you looked into their eyes.

The balding middle aged man reached his hands out towards me as if offering me a handshake, but then there was a snort that rang out.

The balding middle aged man looked in the direction of that snort and it came from the other party at this table.

This person was a rough looking muscular man who also didn't seem that young. However, there was a powerful aura around him that made it clear that he was someone from the military.

The balding middle aged man glared at the person who had given a snort, but then he turned back to me with the same smile on his face as he waited for me to take his hand.

However, I didn't take that hand as I had turned to look at the rough looking man.

Seeing that I was looking at him, he gave a slight nod and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you."

It was surprising how fast he was able to change from one tone to another, but unlike the balding middle aged man, it actually seemed genuine. No matter how you looked at it, this was the classic case of the difference between a minister and a general.

It also made it clear who had sent these groups to come and see me.

Right now, I would have to say that I preferred the muscular man over the balding middle aged man.

Especially since when the balding middle aged man saw that I didn't take his hand, there was a glint that appeared in his eyes. I would have missed it if I hadn't been paying attention to him out of the corner of my eyes, but I had seen it.

Still, I didn't act flustered and just calmly took the menu before giving my order to the waiter.

Both the muscular man and the balding middle aged man looked at me with strange looks when they saw this.

But then they quickly adjusted themselves and looked at me with inquisitive looks as if they had misjudged me.

I was also judging them though.
