BXBX NOVEL Chapter 457 Linda Oslen
Dudley\'s expression was not right. Even without Elder Clayton\'s words. He can tell that visitors are not normal.
Whereas Elder Clayton squinted his eyes. The power radiating from the maid is no less than that of him.
He is already preparing his mind for a duel.
Meanwhile,
The beautiful woman glanced at her maid. The maid nodded her head before stepping forward to speak.
"Are you from the Kramer family?" The woman in a maid\'s dress asked.
Dudley sucked a cold breath of air. He immediately thought of them as enemies. They found out his whereabouts quickly.
"Young master!" The butler was scared sh!t. His worst fear is going to unveil in front of him.
Finally, the elder took action. Clayton released his mana pressure in response.
"Who are you?" He asked in a threatening tone.
The maid\'s eyes grew cold. Instead of answering the person directly revealed a hostile intent.
Then she canceled the opposing mana pressure in an instant.
The beautiful frowned. She finally understood their method of approach was wrong.
"Jane," She uttered.
Hearing that maid recovered her thoughts before turning toward the young miss.
The beautiful woman\'s name is Linda Oslen. Just like the Kramer Family. She is also from an influential wizard family.
Her Oslen family is stronger than the Kramer Family. But in the past few decades, the situation of the Oslen household was not right.
So her family was not in a position to choose sides during this conflict. That\'s why her family sent her to the dark forest to hide.
The young miss Linda signaled her maid to stop before stepping forward.
"My name is Linda Oslen. We have the same purpose as you. We plan to hide in the dark forest for a while," She said with a smile.
Dudley felt struck by lightning.
"Oslen family, "He uttered in surprise. He heard of this family. A long time ago, this wizard family used to be prosperous and strong.
But in later decades they degenerated into a medium-sized family.
Unlike Dudley, the elder knows more information. Compared to the Silver House, the Oslen family has a better relationship with the Brown House.
Whereas the Kramer family is the opposite. They have a good connection with the Silver House. Fortunately, these two families are clever enough to send their descendants outside during the time of the conflict.
Unless the other party is not excessive. He has no problem with them staying in the dark forest.
"It\'s nice to meet you, the young lady of the Oslen Family."
"But I\'m not sure what you want?"
Elder Clayton asked. He wants to know their motive.
Linda looked at her maid before replying, "I don\'t want any disturbance. Since we both came here to survive. It\'s better not to cross each other\'s limits."
After saying that she looked at the young master of the Kramer family.
Dudley\'s expression turned ugly. He doesn\'t like the domineering attitude of the girl. Before he could retort.
Elder Clayton stopped him from saying anything. Dudley\'s face darkened. Earlier, he was dissatisfied with the elder\'s interference. Now he is not giving any face at all.
The strong dissatisfaction in his heart turned into anger.
The butler saw through the young master\'s troubles. But he didn\'t dare to speak in front of the elders.
Elder Clayton didn\'t think about Dudley.
He replied, "Alright, we won\'t disturb you." His expression was solemn. When he saw the maid for the first time.
He was determined to avoid any sort of conflict between them.
A bright smile blossomed on Linda\'s face. She was satisfied by the elder\'s assurance. She doesn\'t want to get into senseless conflict either.
Then Linda signaled her maid. Then both entered back into the carriage.
Shortly after their driver drove the monster carriage into the dark forest.
Seeing that Dudley\'s face filled with surprise. He knew the dangers of the dark forest. Though mana is pitiful here. It doesn\'t mean there was no other threat.
Legends say that unchartered territories were home to ancient evil wizards. Throughout history, some massive purges happened here from time to time.
So it\'s inevitable to come across the backhands left by them. Which is why they have chosen to camp out here.
But still, he couldn\'t understand where their confidence comes from.
Dudley asked, "Elder, they are..."
Before he could finish his words. Elder Clayton interrupted him by saying, "The Olsen House is one of the oldest wizard families in our country. Maybe they have methods something we don\'t understand."
Dudley understood immediately. At the same time, the world of the oldest wizard family brought unknown greed into his heart.
But it\'s a pity it\'s impossible to act. He regretted not inviting the family elder. Because Elder Clayton is a guest elder. There are some things he can\'t order him to do.
Because of it, his mood becomes dull.
Meanwhile,
Inside the carriage maid Jane looked at her young miss with confusion.
"Miss, why did you warn them?"
"It\'s not like they pose any threat to us." She asked.
A quick glint flashes in Linda\'s big eyes.
She replied, "We don\'t know how the fight will turn out between the 2 families. I think as the fight intensifies in the future, the dark forest will have more visitors."
"So it\'s better to make things clear first."
Maid Jane\'s eyes filled with surprise. She approved of the young miss\' far sight.
"I just hope no one touches our family," Linda said with a hint of sadness in her eyes.
Normally, no one cares to bother them. But during times of conflict. Some people want to go fishing in the muddy water.
Maid Jane recollected her thoughts before saying, "Young miss don\'t worry, people are not stupid. If high-level wizards fell, then the neighboring countries won\'t let us off."
"I\'m sure the 2 noble families are not that stupid to let a third party take any advantage."
Linda nodded her head in response. But her eyes are somewhat dimmed.
...
From MC\'s perspective:
A few hours later,
I entered the dark forest successfully. But I\'m not in a good mood at all. Already the lack of mana in this place brought me unknown suffocation.
On top of it, the gloominess of the dark forest is creeping me out. I read about the dark forest in the library.
This place was a haven to wicked wizards once upon a time. But times have changed now. Nobody visits this place nowadays.
I plan to walk through this forest to enter No Man\'s land. I already remembered the dark forest map in my mind.
As long as I travel in a straight line, I will eventually find myself at the border.
After gaining some clarity, I started to walk in.
Time passes in a blink of an eye,
After a few hours of walking, I decided to take some rest.
[Ding! Warning]
When the mechanical voice sounded in my mind. I feel goosebumps all over my body.
"Where?" I uttered in surprise.
But I\'m so sure there was no danger near me. There was no wizard or monster here. So where is the source of the warning?
This unexplainable situation brought me uneasiness. Just as I was wondering, I heard the sound of a carriage.
As the second passes, I can hear that the sound is becoming louder.
Swoosh~
The next moment, I disappeared from the spot and appeared in the Gregor Mansion. When I entered the control room to look in the mirror.
Then I found the danger. In the mirror, I saw the image of a monster carriage.
Seeing that a look of disbelief appeared on my face.
I\'m sure that was a carriage for real. Who could be this person? They are traveling during nighttime in the dark forest.
I don\'t know how to react for a while. After a few seconds, I collected my thoughts. The system\'s warning is real. Then there is someone who could threaten my life traveling in that carriage.
Seeing that I decided to prepare. I was careless a moment ago. Apart from me, people are traveling in the dark forest.
Using this time, I decided to check the remaining storage bracelets. After a few minutes of searching, I held one brown-colored liquid bottle in my hand.
I never expected to come across this product again. This brown color liquid bottle is a medium-grade transfiguration potion.
If I could disguise my appearance, it would add extra protection for me. Especially considering the current situation.
I think it\'s best to consume the product right now. There are a lot of people appearing in the dark forest. And I don\'t want to show my real appearance in front of them.
Thinking about the powerful wizard in the carriage. My resolve became firm. I opened the cork and drank it in one go.
A disgusting liquid ran down my throat. Right after the energy entered my body. I feel my skin becoming hot and even the bones are starting to change.
As the energy consumed by the body. I know the change is happening slowly. I wait for the transformation to complete. After 2 hours, I feel the changes in my body come to an end.
