Chapter 185 – First come, first served.

“You and your friend were involved in the Battle of the Black Dragon in Southsea Town?” Harriet said in surprise, “I’m very sorry, sir, I heard about your experience in Southsea Town, if only I had known that it was you who was that Jace Sesso …… But, at the moment, our purpose lies mainly in finding clues related to the burglary, and things happened in a hurry, forgive me for not being able to to make preparations earlier; after all, I was up all night last night, too.”

He continued, “If even you feel that that intruder has irresistible mana, I think that even if he isn’t Talon Blood Demon himself, he must be one of Blood Demon’s powerful subordinates.”

“Speaking of which, can I get the name of the dwarf? That is, your friend.”

Jace heard this and thought to himself that it was a good thing he’d strung a confession with Grider or something was going to happen.

But after thinking back on the previous conversation, I thought that even if there was no string, I shouldn’t be able to ask anything more.

He hadn’t been able to mention the Eye of Dalaran to Grid, nor had he mentioned his suspicions about Klsurgard to him.

In fact, while at Grider’s house, Jace felt a little guilty that he hadn’t told Grider a lot of things, as if he had taken him for an outsider.

But now it seems right not to tell.

In this world, there were some things he could only keep to himself for the time being, so that it would be good for himself, and for those around him. Unless he truly possessed the power to change and control, and that power could not originate from others, but only from himself.

“Greedy Thunderfist, he’s my best friend.” Jace replied.

Harrist thinks for a moment and says, “Grid Thunderfist, indeed that dwarven warrior. Going back to that order, the one you showed at the Orcish language meeting about Talon Bloodmage, could you tell us again how you got it?”

Jace glanced at Harriet and cursed, sure enough, he’s here waiting for me.

It had only occurred to him at the door of that dispensary that he ought to have arranged the matter with Grider, and if he hadn’t had that flash of insight, wouldn’t it have been all exposed?

If I had known it would be so troublesome, I might as well have just told the truth at the Orcish conference.

It’s none of his business if Klsugard goes to South Elwyn or not, what’s the point of stirring up the place into a second Northrend, the Twilight Forest is going to end up looking like that anyway.

Emotions came up and Jess thought of the Ladimores again.

Think of the boy his age sitting in front of the campfire, telling himself that he wanted to make his wife and children think his father was a great man.

If time continued on the way it had been set, they were already going to experience heavy disaster; were they going to be made to face the weight of Kelsugard’s troubles again because of a trip to Jace’s herb-picking?

And he and his parents have to live near there …… Yeah, can’t have Klsugard polluting the living environment.

Jace shook his head and said, “I don’t want to reminisce about another Karazhan experience, Mr. Harrist, it has consumed all of my courage for me to speak openly in that meeting, you can just ask the other scholars who were there, they may remember it more accurately as bystanders than I, the one who experienced it, and it would be just as well if you asked me to tell it all over again. “

Harrist nodded slightly and said, “Ah, Karazhan, I certainly understand what that means. Well, I didn’t come here to intentionally touch on a past you don’t want to remember. However, may I see that order again, Mr. Sesso? Kenrito would like me to take it back for deeper study.”

“You are late.” Jace says, “I’ve already given that order to the elves, you can ask for it over at the embassy in Quel’thalas.”

“Elves?” Harriet asked, “Why give it to an elf and not Kenrito?”

Jess looked up and asked, “So how much are you guys going to pay?”

Harriet hesitated for a moment without saying anything, and Jace asked again, “Not going to give a single copper, so this is an open robbery?”

“Absolutely not, Mr. Sesso.” Harrist immediately said, “Kenrito absolutely respects your decision to handle this as the owner, but ……”

Jace put the composed copy that was about to be rubbed into a ball on the table, spread it out and said, “This is exactly the same as what’s on that order, I copied it down with my own hands a little bit, and it’s been certified by Master Klsugard that there’s no difference, so you can take this and I’ll give it to you for nothing.”

After getting it in his hands, Hallister said, “Thank you very much, I’ll take it with me then, Mr. Sesso, it’s extremely important to our investigation.”

After that, he gave the female mage a wink and hurried down the stairs.

Is that a pass?

Jace walked down the stairs and made sure the mages were gone before letting his heart drop a little.

“You gave those men that order?” Dushan asked as he ate his bread.

“There’s no chance of giving it, teacher.” Jace said, “Remember that elf from this afternoon? He has bought my order away.”

Dushan let out a laugh and said, “Actually, when I heard that man say he was from the Relic Society, I already guessed what he was coming for. That order of yours was nothing in the first place, but after last night’s mess, it’s sure to be targeted by a lot of people, so it’s just as well that it’s been sold, let them mess with each other on their own.”

“That’s what I thought.” Jace picked up a piece of bread and asked, “When does Sensei plan to return to Stormwind?”

Dushan said, “I’m leaving tomorrow to go back to Nanhai Town, when do you plan to go back?The academy will officially open on January 21st, you need to arrive on the 18th to be able to do so.”

Jace said, “If it’s a faster ship, the kind that doesn’t stop at Port Menethil, is it possible to get there in 10 days?”

“You might as well have some extra time.” Dushan said, “Why don’t I find you a boat in size 5 that’s as fast as possible?”

“Okay, thank you teacher, will the boat be hard to find now?”

“Shouldn’t be a problem, it’s still early and it’s nowhere near as busy as it was back in November. So it’s still two, right? Is Mr. Grider still back in Stormwind?”

“Yes, please teacher.”

“I remember.” Dushan said, “Well, I wish you all the best for the rest of your journey, it’s been a really bumpy enough trip.”

“And a safe journey to the teacher.”

After eating, Dushan was about to go back to the house to rest when Jess suddenly remembered about the mage armor.

“Teacher, I’d like to ask you for another favor ……”

“What favor?” Dushan turned back.

“I’d like to practice a spell, and I’d like you to keep an eye on it for me to prevent accidents, is that possible?”

“Tired, I haven’t slept much since yesterday, Jess. And you’ve hurt your shoulder like that, what’s the point of tossing yourself around …… You’re not too tired for me to watch.”

Without even waiting for Jess to reply, Dushan slammed the door behind him.

Jace thought that it was indeed a bit too much, and after leaning back in his chair and listening to Dushan’s words, he instantly felt sleepy as well. And with one arm injured, practicing the mage spell can be said to be much more difficult, after all, this spell’s requirements for casting gestures are quite high. It would be troublesome if something happened and delayed tomorrow’s journey.
