Chapter 202

“Mistvale?” Zachary was taken aback momentarily, but soon his fiery beard bristled with rage. “Miervale is just some tale that shameless bards spin to scam a few coins. You expect me to believe you? Hmph”

“It’s up to you whether to believe it or not, Lorrayne replied nonchalantly.

“I don’t believe it!” Zachary snapped back adamantly. “If a place like that really existed, our people from Westvale would have discovered it long ago. We’ve sent hundreds of explorers to search for it without any luck. Why should I believe you?”

Lorrayne shot Zachary a glance. “Mistvale isn’t a place any riffraff can stroll into. Whether you believe me or not makes no difference to me.

“Besides, with that attitude of yours, I doubt we’ve got any deal to talk about. Pfft! What a waste of my time.” She gave a dismissive shake of her head before turning away. “Patrick, let’s go.”

“Wait a minute!” Zachary blurted out when he realized that Lorrayne was genuinely leaving. “What kind of deal are you talking about?”

Lorrayne stopped in her tracks. “I thought you didn’t believe me, Mr. Bunyan? My, you have changed your mind so quickly?”

Zachary sprang up so fast his head almost bumped the ceiling. With wide–eyed fury, he retorted with spittle splattering all over his beard, “I only want to see what kind of trick you’ve got up your sleeve next, you shameless brat!”

Lorrayne turned to face him with an unfathomable expression. “Then you’re going to be disappointed. Because what I’m going to tell you next concerns you.”

Zachary was running out of patience. “Stop beating around the bush. Just spit it out!”

“Alright, I’ll go straight to the point. Mr. Bunyan, I want your soldiers,” Lorrayne stated with a sly grin.

Zachary’s eyes narrowed. “Soldiers? I’m a slave trader. I don’t own a fiefdom. Where would I get soldiers from?”

“Oh? No soldiers? Then what are you doing as a slave trader?” Lorrayne asked.

“To make money, obviously!” Zachary retorted.

“You are an arcanesmith who can easily earn a thousand gold coins for forging a single sword, yet you still stoop to trading slaves for profit?” Lorrayne burst out laughing. “Mr. Bunyan, you are the first fellow I’ve ever seen to self–denigrate himself like this.”
