Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 24 Are you also an apprentice? Coincidentally, so am I

"uh-huh!"

Audrey was about to say something else when she suddenly heard a violent cough.

When she looked over at the sound, she saw Viscount Glint coughing madly as if he had a serious illness, and he kept winking at Audrey.

Seeing Audrey finally looking over, Graylint pursed his lips and walked towards the study.

"Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom."

Audrey was a little helpless and whispered.

Then she lifted her skirt, slowly stood up and walked towards the bathroom.

But halfway through, it went out of sight and headed for the study on the first floor.

Obviously she was familiar with the environment here, and it was not her first time to attend a salon in this villa.

"I need to discuss something with Greylint. You guard the door and don't let anyone else in."

Audrey gave instructions to her personal maid, Anne.

"Ok."

Anne nodded slightly and watched Audrey enter the study.

Meanwhile in the study, Grellint was waiting anxiously.

"Audrey."

When Grellint saw Audrey come in, he immediately wanted to remind her, but Audrey changed the subject.

"Ms. Fors."

Audrey looked at another lady who was standing in front of a bookshelf and casually browsing the books with a little suspicion. "I heard from Greylint that you are a true extraordinary person. Is that true?"

Of course she knew what Greylint was going to say, which was that she was the daughter of an earl and had a noble status.

It's impossible to get along with that kind of decadent aristocrat from the countryside.

But, oh my god!
Did he never suspect that Mr. Lover was also a Beyonder?

Audrey wanted to complain, but she knew it was not in line with her status.

"Looks like I need to prove it."

Fors was not angry at Audrey's questioning. She just smiled and walked to the door.

Subsequently.

Audrey and Greylint's eyes blurred, and Ms. Fors seemed to have turned into a phantom and passed through the door.

So, with Audrey pretending to be surprised.

The two sides reached a deal -

Fors sold her and Greylint the recipes of some sequence potions, and they needed to help Fors rescue her friends.

After successfully reaching an agreement, Grellint suggested that the three of them leave the study one by one in order to avoid arousing suspicion.

The first to leave was Fors.

"Audrey."

Grellint hesitated, and said, "I have something to say to you."

"I knew it."

Audrey rolled her eyes implicitly and deliberately changed the subject, "I also have something to say to you, Greylint. Can you remember to invite Mr. Ash every time you hold a party?"

"Mr. Ash?!"

Grellint's eyes widened.

You've only known each other for a few minutes!
Have you developed a relationship where you call each other by name?
But this shouldn’t be the case!

As a young and promising nobleman who had lost his father at an early age, it was not that Gralint had not thought about pursuing Audrey.

Of course.

After all, she is a rich and beautiful daughter of a noble family. Who wouldn't be moved?
However, after realizing that Audrey had no such intention, Greylint gave up the idea.

The relationship with Audrey also turned into a purely mystical friendship.

But now, Audrey was kidnapped by a fallen noble from the countryside? !

I can not accept!
"Don't think too much."

Audrey sighed in her heart and explained, "We invited him here because Mr. Ash might also be a Beyonder."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lover."

Audrey said silently in her heart.

In order to gain Greylint's trust and avoid his continued suspicion, she could only reveal a few things.

Moreover, she used the word 'maybe'.

"Extraordinary?"

Grellint took a deep breath, then seemed to understand something and asked in surprise, "Is that why you have such an attitude? Audrey, how did you find out? I didn't even notice it!"

"Did you notice the rings on his hands? I suspect they are magical items." Audrey explained helplessly, "Also, don't tell anyone about this."

"understood!"

Grellint nodded solemnly.

Although he is not a Beyonder, he also knows about magical items—

Of course, we don’t know what it is specifically, we just know that it is an item with some extraordinary abilities.

It is said that these things are as rare as Beyonders.

And that Mr. Ash...

Grellint was suddenly stunned.

It seemed like the other person's ten fingers were full of rings.

Ten magical items?!
No, there should be only one or two of them, the others should be disguises.

That's right, that's it!
Audrey looked at Greylint who was lost in his own imagination and quietly left the room.

The girl returned to the hall, and Fors was now walking gracefully towards the desserts on the long table.

After a moment's hesitation, Audrey took another step towards Ember.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Black, um, can I just call you Ash?"

"If you want."

Yu Jin nodded slightly.

"Well, Mr. Ash."

Audrey blinked, "But if that's the case, then you have to call me Audrey too."

Yu Jin nodded slightly.

"Yes, Miss Hall."

"It's Audrey!"

"No problem, Miss Hall."

Audrey looked at Yu Jin with some annoyance. She felt that he was teasing her deliberately, but she had no evidence.

"Mr. Ash."

Audrey didn't want to continue this topic, so she interrupted, "Should I hand the diary to you directly in reality in the future?"

And the moment she asked this question, Klein, who was far away in Tingen, suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.

"No, no need."

Yu Jin refused without hesitation, "I'm not interested in diaries."

He had no time to waste on reading Russell's Caobi diary.

"Ok."

Audrey nodded, then hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Ash, do you know what kind of Beyonder can pass through a wooden door directly, or make the lock ineffective?"

After asking this question, Audrey suddenly found that the way Yu Jin looked at her seemed to have changed.

"This is the Sequence 9 Apprenticeship of the Apprenticeship Pathway."

Ember spoke slowly, "I don't think I have ever shown this ability in front of you. How did you know about the apprentice?"

"Eh?"

Audrey was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise, "Is Mr. Ash also an apprentice?"

"Yes."

Ember nodded calmly, "As you can see, I just became an apprentice a few days ago."

After a pause, Yu Jin continued, "He can be considered a fresh and cute newcomer among the Beyonders."

Audrey's face was filled with doubt. She believed that Ember was an apprentice, but she didn't believe that Ember was only at Sequence 9.

How could a Sequence 9 have ten magical items?

"so."

Ember inquired, "You met the other apprentices?"

"Ah."

Audrey whispered, "She is the author of the book you are reading, Miss Fors."

So, Miss Audrey honestly told Yu Jin the details of the deal between her and Fors.

PS: Audrey dared to communicate with Yu Jin in public because she was an audience.

She could tell if someone was eavesdropping, so she could avoid having her own conversations overheard.

But Grellint and Fors didn't know, so they didn't want to say too much in public and went to the study instead.

This should be easy to understand, right?
