The Genius Mage

Chapter 189: Assistance From a Noble

“As long as you have something that you need, as long as we have it here, you can buy it at the buyout price. Wouldn’t that save a lot of time?” Marcus thought that this condition was superior enough.

However, the girl in front of him stood up immediately. Marcus could even feel that there was not a trace of emotion in her cold eyes.

“What a pity. I originally wanted to do business with you. I didn’t expect you to treat me in such a way,” Audrey sneered, “Since you said that the things I used weren’t enough to exchange for that Fey core, then fine. Return my things to me and I’ll find another way.”

Marcus’ expression instantly changed.

He had never expected that the girl in front of him would be so straightforward. The conditions that he had proposed were clearly very respectful to her. Why would such a situation occur?

However, since that thing was already in his hands, how could he give it back so easily.

“Miss Catherine, if there’s any problem, we can discuss it properly. Don’t be in such a hurry to make a judgment.” Marcus tried his best to appear amiable.

However, Audrey had no intention of giving him face. “Sorry, I didn’t see any sincerity from you.”

After saying that, Audrey stood up and was about to leave when she saw the tightly shut door being pushed open.

Following that, someone hurriedly appeared in the room.

“Miss Catherine, we’ve brought you the things you need. At the same time, there’s also a sum of money.” Reginald handed the small box in his hand over. “I’m sorry for wasting your time.”

As he said this, he completely disregarded the extremely ugly expression on Marcus’ face.

Audrey took the box and her gaze fell on Marcus beside her. Her gaze could be said to be full of provocation.

“Thank you.”

“Reginald, didn’t I make it clear to you? Let me settle this matter. Why are you here?” Marcus said coldly. He already felt that his dignity had been challenged.

At this moment, the door was pushed open again. A figure dressed in a black robe walked in.

“I asked him to do this,” the person said with an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Audrey was stunned when she heard the voice. A figure flashed through her mind, but she quickly rejected it.

How could it be him? He should still be in the Templar Knights. It was impossible for him to appear here. Moreover, she had sneaked out this time without telling anyone.

“You!” Marcus gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, “You’re just a newly appointed vice president, what right do you have to interfere in my business?”

“But don’t forget, half of the funding here is on me now, so I hope you can be a little more polite to me. After all, I don’t know when…” that person chuckled, “You might not be able to hold on to your seat.”

Marcus was so angry that his face turned red. He never expected that the president, who had been sitting here for so long, would end up in such a state.

“Just you wait!” Marcus said fiercely, then turned around and left.

Looking at the door, which was closing in front of her, Audrey raised her eyebrows. She felt that the situation was quite interesting.

“I’m sorry to have made a fool of myself. Our president is a nasty person. All of your items are much higher than the fey core, so we’ll give you the extra portion at the lowest price,” Reginald said, “I hope you’ll be satisfied.”

Audrey nodded in agreement.

Since she had already gotten what she wanted, there was no need for her to stay any longer.

Just as she was about to leave, she could not help but look back at the hooded man.

It had to be said that the man’s voice was too familiar. She had definitely heard it somewhere before, but she had just forgotten about his existence.

Where had she heard it before?

Audrey pondered for a moment, but in the end, she chose to give up and leave the auction house.

When she returned to the Templar Knights, she realized that everyone in the class was preparing for their class trial. However, the potions they needed were too high-grade. For them, who were considered beginners… it was an extremely difficult task.

As soon as Audrey arrived in the classroom, Ross rushed over.

“Audrey, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, so I wanted to ask you how to make this.” Ross handed the medicinal herb in her hand over, “Look, I’ve already been crushed into powder, but when I mixed it with water, it wasn’t blue.”

Audrey only took a light glance and saw the problem.

“You didn’t clean up the root of this plant, did you? I can even see the veins. Look.” Audrey raised her hand and picked up a pinch of powder and placed it on her fingertip. “This is your mistake.”

Rose came to a realization and smiled embarrassedly.

“I see. I was too busy just now and didn’t notice the problem. I thought it was a mistake with the herbs.”

Barbara listened to their conversation and said softly, “Audrey, the teacher called for you. If you’re free now, you can go look for him. I have a feeling that he has something important to tell you.”
