Wizard Earl

Chapter 717 Kararov's Broken Promise

Varga blinked her big eyes, nodded, and said, "I understand, Connor. You're worried about this undercover agent, so you don't want to clash with Kararov. But aren't we going to Frosinone, where your family lives? Why are we going to Tunguska? Tunguska is only about 100 kilometers from Loen. If we go there, the undercover agent is very likely to catch us."

After Varga finished speaking, Connor didn't reply immediately. Instead, he thought for a moment and decided that telling Varga wouldn't cause any major problems before saying, "I'm not worried about the undercover agent; it's my own fault!"

Although Connor didn't spell it out clearly, the astute Varga still understood what he meant. Her beautiful eyes lit up with surprise, and she lowered her voice to ask Connor, "Connor, are you about to break through?"

Upon hearing this, Connor no longer concealed anything and said in a deep voice, "That's right! I can't hold on until I return to Frosinone to break through. I have a secret base in Tunguska that I used when I broke through to the Advanced Wizard Apprentice level last time, and it will come in handy this time. So, I don't want any unforeseen complications in delivering the potion to Karalov this time. I'll go alone, so even if they make a move, I can escape on my own!"

At this point, Varga understood everything Connor meant and had no further questions. Her expression was joyful, and she nodded firmly, saying, "Connor, I know what to do!"

After finishing their business, Connor, who hadn't had any meat for a while, relaxed and looked at Varga with desire. Sensing the change in Connor's gaze, Varga blushed and lowered her head shyly.

Seeing this, Connor chuckled, casually set up a soundproof barrier in the room, and then, in a princess carry, picked up Varga and placed her on the bed... (To avoid censoring mythical creatures, please use your imagination here!)

The next day, as the sun rose high in the sky and Connor felt refreshed, he disguised himself with a disguise and then quietly left the villa on Ramsey Street in the western part of the Rune district, carrying a bottle of Salerin potion given to him by Varga.

After a roughly forty-minute carriage ride and a twenty-minute walk, Connor finally arrived at the place he had arranged with the Karaloffs six months earlier to deliver the potion: the 37th Estate on McKinsey Avenue outside Rune.

This manor is a well-known middle-class leisure and vacation destination in Rune. Many executives of Rune trading companies, minor shareholders of factories, as well as some minor nobles, small landowners and other people who do not have to worry about making a living, like to bring their families here to enjoy the beauty of life in their spare time.

At the time, Connor Varga and the Karalovs had significant disagreements about the delivery location for the potion. After a full ten minutes of debate, they reluctantly agreed to settle their differences and deliver the potion at the manor. The reasons for choosing this location were that the manor was a public place, and that the No. 37 manor was located just five kilometers away from the J-Officer University of the Rune Metropolitan Police Department. Taking action there would have a very negative impact, and both sides would have been hesitant.

Disguised as a lean, middle-aged gentleman, Connor, leaning on an expensive cane, walked through the manor gate with practiced ease and arrived at the manor's restaurant. As soon as he sat down, a beautiful, blonde, blue-eyed waitress came to Connor's side.

"Hello sir, what would you like to eat?" the blonde waitress said, handing Connor the menu.

Faced with the menu handed to him by the blonde waitress, Connor waved his hand slightly, then coughed lightly and said in an old-fashioned manner, leaning on his cane, "Give me a medium-rare Passmeri steak, a Rune-style beetroot soup, and for dessert, two Bernabéu tarts, that'll do!"

Hearing the middle-aged gentleman order several of the restaurant's famous dishes without even looking at the menu, the blonde waitress, unfazed, took the menu back and asked again, "Sir, would you like something to drink?"

"Give me a bottle of Paul Sousa Blue Moon gin!" Connor said, handing over a fivepence note to the blonde waitress as a tip.

Seeing that the tip was only five pence, the blonde waitress's interest waned, but the manor's excellent training for its waitresses still allowed her to force a standard smile onto her beautiful face as she said to Connor, "Yes, sir, I have noted your request. I will bring your meal in about ten minutes. Please wait patiently!" After saying this, the blonde waitress gave Connor a slight bow and then left.

Disguised as a middle-aged gentleman, Connor's gaze seemed to be fixed on an oil painting of a sunset lake scene hanging on the wall of the restaurant while waiting for his meal, appreciating the charm of art. In reality, Connor's spiritual power was being released silently and slowly, spreading from the restaurant to the entire manor.

Under the witness of the oath of the Eye of Arbitration, Connor and Kararov agreed to meet at 11:30 a.m., and barring any unforeseen circumstances, Kararov should have already entered the manor by then.

Connor's food was served two minutes faster than the blonde waitress had anticipated. The same blonde waitress placed Connor's steak, beetroot soup, egg tarts, and gin in front of him, then respectfully said, following protocol, "Please enjoy your meal, sir!"

Looking at the delicious food in front of him, Connor casually took out another five-pence note and tossed it to the blonde waitress as a tip. Upon seeing the five-pence tip, the blonde waitress's face lit up with surprise. After taking the note, she sweetly said to Connor, "Thank you, sir," before leaving satisfied.

Picking up the gin he had ordered from the table, Connor poured half a glass into it, then drank it down, savoring the wonderful taste of the gin in his mouth. Seemingly casually, Connor pulled out a silver pocket watch from his pocket, glanced at the time, a fleeting look of doubt flashing in his eyes, before slowly putting the watch back into his pocket.

It's already 11:15. Why hasn't Kararov appeared in this manor yet? Or has Kararov already appeared and I just haven't noticed him?
