Orion nodded and they looked at him. "I have also gathered similar intelligence."

"Is that why you’re heading to Holt City? And without using the Teleportation array," Otto said as if he was finally enlightened.

They thought he was just being stingy. Apparently, he didn’t want to alert the lord where he was going.

"We don’t know enough to get to any conclusions."

"Well, we’ll just keep each other updated," Zaol said. "Don’t send sensitive messages via Post."

The Post Office had risks and the Lord had the ability to check on the contents of what was being exchanged, so they had to be careful.

"Be subtle. Perhaps we are overthinking."

Before everyone could leave and do their own thing, however, the servant once again appeared. He looked a bit embarrassed for bothering the masters so often today.

"You have another guest," he said, making the Golds look at each other with confusion.

"We’re getting a lot of guests today."

Normally, those who wished to speak with them would have the courtesy of sending a letter days in advance. Octavia’s case was understandable, but who was this one?

It was probably their neighbors—that was to say, someone from the other ’top’ nobles. They believed that since they were of the same level, then there was no need to be polite.

Just the thought of those people visiting annoyed them quite a bit.

Seeing that the masters were silent, the servant felt awkward. "...should I ask him to go?"

"Well, I’m really not in the mood for those guys," Obi said, waving his hand, and not planning on interacting with those bastards.

Olga though shook her head. "Didn’t they introduce themselves?" What if it was someone important?

At this, the servant nodded. "I do not recognize him," he said. "But he claims he’s from a territory called Alterra."

"..."

…

They naturally let this guest inside the house. To the servant’s surprise, Master Obi, Master Otto, and Miss Olga even stood up to greet him. They didn’t bother doing so with Miss Octavia.

They were quite excited to see who it was. Granted, they were disappointed to see it was just Helios.

"Oh…" Obi muttered, turning around to go back to his seat.

Helios: "..." Did I do anything bad?

The twins were much less rude. "You’re… an Alterran guard, aren’t you?" Otto asked. They were not close but they found him familiar because he was a looker and was quite strong. He was also a rare metal elementalist, so Otto remembered him.

"Yes, sir."

Olga, on the other hand, was looking past him. "Are you alone?"

"Yes. Miss Olga," Helios said. He finally realized that they were disappointed to see him and not any other big shot from home.

"This is my personal mission and has nothing to do with Alterra."

"What about your uncle?"

"My Uncle?"
