Lord of the Mysteries
Chapter 269
On the outskirts of Empress Borough, in a wide, empty horse track.
Audrey Hall deliberately led a chestnut mare to a corner and pretended to discuss something with Viscount Glaint.
She was wearing white pants and knee-high black boots, adorned with a simple blouse and a black jacket that reached her waist. In addition, she donned a helmet of the same color. She looked especially valiant and beautiful, and Susie, her golden retriever, was obediently sitting by her feet. What seemed like a tiny leather satchel hung from her back.
Disguised as Viscount Glaint’s servant, Xio glanced enviously at Audrey’s long, straight legs, and unconsciously tiptoed.
“Just horse-riding is so blasé. Only when it is combined with hunting does it become imbued with life. Of course, I mean the equestrian skills for men. No matter what a beautiful lady does, it would still be a sight to behold,” Glaint sized up Audrey and said half-jokingly.
Audrey replied with a slight smile, “The next hunt is still months away.”
Every year, from June to the New Year, the aristocrats of the Loen Kingdom would come to Backlund to attend various banquets, dances, and salons, as per tradition. This was a very important event for them, and many things would be decided within a few months.
After the new year, the nobles would return to their fiefdom—their castles, country estates, and large plantations—and spend their leisure time there. In such times, the most popular sport was hunting.
The nobles would invite guests of similar status to enjoy the pleasure of horse-riding and chasing prey. As long as their financial situation allowed it, they weren’t stingy with buying hounds.
The most famous of the hounds was the foxhound.
“I already miss that life. Backlund is a place where people feel constrained, and its air is indescribably terrible. Of course, I still enjoy its extravagance.” Viscount Glaint wore his gloves and stepped back to make it easier for Audrey to talk to Xio and Fors.
“Honorable Miss Audrey, why have you called us here this time?” Xio initiated the question as she retracted her gaze.
Audrey took a large portion of most of her recent income. She was honest and generous, a rarely encountered good employer.
I seem to smell the ink of money again… Hopefully, the mission wouldn’t be too difficult… Miss Audrey is perfect in every way, except for one thing. Every mission is unexpected and very dangerous… Xio thought, feeling both anticipation and apprehension. She couldn’t help but glance sideways at Fors. She noticed that her companion, disguised as a maid, was looking right at her.
The expressions reflected in their eyes looked very similar.
Audrey held her gloves, smiled reservedly and elegantly before saying, “It’s a simple request this time.”
As she spoke, she motioned with her eyes for Xio and Fors to open the leather satchel on Susie.
Xio, who had always been known for her proactiveness, immediately took two steps forward and bent down to reach out with her hand.
But just as she extended her right palm, Susie had already turned her head, turning her body half around, placing the small leather satchel in front of
