Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 820: Chapter 531: Sudden Incident on the Street_1

Leo Ray bowed slightly to Ariel Watson, who had been disguised by illusion magic. She spoke softly, “Sir, I’d like to buy some candies, dolls, and other small items along the way. If we come across any helpless children, I can offer them some small comfort.”

After speaking, Ariel’s face fell slightly, and she couldn’t help but sigh quietly.

It seemed that the things they had seen and heard at the Border Battlefield these past two days had left a deep impression on her.

“Understood. Let’s have a look around nearby, then,” Leo Ray replied, patting Ariel’s thin shoulder lightly in consolation.

With their subordinates surrounding them, Leo Ray and Ariel Watson followed the bustling crowd along the shopping street.

In no time at all, the delighted shopkeepers saw them off as they bought various candies and dolls that were then stored into Ariel’s space ring.

Just then, the rapid sound of galloping hooves reached Leo Ray’s ears.

Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw a group of Silver Armored Cavalry rushing towards them, waving triangular flags and shouting to the surrounding people: “Make way for the City Lord!”

Hearing the cavalry’s reminder, the crowd quickly moved to the sides of the street, leaving the central avenue empty.

At the same time, the bustling street quieted down. The pedestrians and shopkeepers around them all placed a hand on their chest and bowed their heads deeply.

“Looks like Lord Asher is returning from the relics,” said Leo Ray, nodding slightly.

A few days ago, when he and Lord Asher went to the Titan Underground Temple, he had witnessed a similar scene.

Needless to say, as the lord of Viennas City, Lord Asher held the power of life and death over all residents in his domain.

It was his diligent administration and low taxes that had enabled Viennas City to develop rapidly to its current state.

As a result, the residents of Viennas City were filled with awe and respect for him, not daring to show any disrespect.

Out-of-towners, too, were grateful and admiring of Lord Asher as they profited handsomely from the secure and efficient trading platform provided by Viennas City.

Of course, among the crowd paying respect, the only ones who kept their heads raised were Leo Ray and his party, who appeared to be ordinary people after their illusion disguises.

Seeing their disrespectful behavior immediately drew the attention of the crowd.

For a moment, confused, surprised, and even angry glances were cast towards Leo Ray and his group.

Seeing this, Leo Ray merely raised an eyebrow, not giving it a second thought.

He didn’t care at all about such a minor and sudden situation.

“Kid, are you getting too full of yourself?”

At that moment, a sharp voice came from the crowd.

Following the voice, a thin young man accompanied by a heavily made-up and glamorous young woman approached Leo Ray.

Upon closer inspection, the young man was dressed in an exquisite ochre-colored nobleman’s outfit, adorned with a finely crafted emblem of an Earth Wolf on the chest.

Above the emblem, there was a bronze strip decorated with six glittering silver orbs.

This suggested that the young man was a viscount, one rank higher than a knight.

Seeing a noble step in, the surrounding crowd began whispering, anticipating some drama.

Feeling helpless, Leo Ray turned his back, not intending to converse with the man.

Based on his aura, the viscount’s strength was about Tier 2 Three-star, and being a low-level noble of little fame, he couldn’t pique Leo Ray’s interest at all.

The subordinates around him also turned away, admiring Leo Ray’s magnanimity for not taking the viscount’s rudeness seriously.

“Hmph, don’t think that pretending not to hear me can absolve you of your disrespect,” the thin viscount said smugly, taking another step forward. “Today, this matter cannot be dismissed so easily!”

With that, the viscount stood tall, intending to show off his skills in front of the spectating civilians and the young woman beside him, who both cast admiring looks at him.

Among them, the glamorous young woman sneered at Leo Ray, who was still in his illusion disguise. How could this ordinary-looking person compare with her great viscount?

Seeing that their lord was taken for granted and the viscount’s arrogant attitude, Kelsey couldn’t take it anymore. She removed the hood of her Illusion Cloak, appearing in front of the viscount, hands on her hips, and said coldly, “Earth Wolf, what are you barking here for? Itchy skin, isn’t it? How dare you speak to him like that!”

“Kelsey…?!”

Seeing that the person who stepped in was none other than the infamous young lady of Sanders’ Trading Conference, the thin viscount’s arrogance diminished instantly. He took several steps backward and said resentfully, “Oh, it’s you, Kelsey, breaking the rules!”
