As a result, most of the children in the village were willing to go to the city to receive education, and there were about thirty of them, including Chu Yufan.

After getting the exact list, Oric told everyone to get their things ready for the night and to take the children into town in the two carriages to-morrow morning.

"Yu Fan, this bag contains your clothes. This is a snack or something. You have to take it well, do you know?"

That night, Hesha kept reminding Chu Yufan of the purpose of these things while packing things for Chu Yufan to go out.

"I know, Grandma Hesha, I'm not

a child anymore!" "Haha, of course you're a child when you're only eleven years old!" Herbert couldn't help laughing when he heard Chu Yufan say this.

"Hmph...... Even though he was a child, he could also help carry Grandpa Herbert home. Chu Yufan snorted lightly.

"You kid ......" Herbert was speechless about this, after all, after being helped home by Chu Yufan and Hesha for the first time, his health was not particularly good, and he often fainted halfway, and every time Chu Yufan brought him back.

"Okay, okay, let's get up tomorrow by going to bed early. Hersha stopped the two from talking to each other and said with a smile.

Late at night, normally everyone should fall asleep. But Chu Yufan woke up, quietly came out of the room and came to the kitchen. After rummaging around, he found a slightly rusty dagger, carefully hid it in his arms and returned to his room.

Although he was embarrassed to suspect the great benefactor of the village, Chu Yufan just felt that Orek was not a good person. This intuition can be said to be groundless, but Chu Yufan just can't believe him.

Therefore, it is necessary to be prepared, although it is difficult to say how effective this small dagger will be, but at least it can increase its own lethality.

The next morning, it was time to separate from the village.

"Yu Fan, you have to be obedient when you go there, do you know?" Hesha said softly while tidying up Chu Yufan's clothes for the last time.

"Don't worry, Grandma Hertha, I'll be obedient there. Chu Yufan nodded and said.

"Yu Fan, if you don't become a big official there, don't come back, you know?" Herbert on the side said with a wave of his hand.

"Got it, Grandpa Herbert. You also have to be careful not to faint halfway through. Chu Yufan retorted.

"You kid is really ......"

The same family farewell, which was played out in this place at the entrance of the village, did not until at the urging of the village chief that the children boarded the carriage one after another and began to move towards the city.

———

third carriage in the carriage procession, the most ornate in appearance, was the carriage in which Orrick was now riding.

"My lord, all the children on the list have boarded the bus. "Inside the carriage, next to Orrick sat his bodyguard and butler, Scott.

At this time, he handed a list to Orrick and said respectfully.

"Hmm...... Yes, thirty people were gathered. It seems that the previous distribution of supplies has been very smooth to gain their trust!" Orrick muttered as he looked at the names on the list carefully.

"My lord, what should we do next?"

"Prepare the people below, and when the time comes, you can start acting, and remember to leave no one behind." Orrick closed the list and said lightly to Scott.

"I'm going to make these thirty people the most loyal dead soldiers of my Orrick!......ha" Orrick laughed unabashedly.

"Scott, you're in charge, including the training of these thirty deadmen!"

"Your subordinates obey, my lordship. Scott replied respectfully.

At this time, the servant who was driving Orrick's carriage heard the conversation between the two in the carriage clearly, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

———

after a day and a night of marching, the wagon procession finally arrived in the city where Orrick was located. It's a city on the outskirts of the empire, but it's very prosperous even on the periphery.

At least for Chu Yufan, a child who has never been out of the village, this city is very prosperous.

"Wow! Is this the

city! It's so big!" "There are so many people! There are so many big houses!"

"I really didn't expect to be able to live in the city." Even

Chu Yufan, when he saw the city's high walls, houses, and crowds, he couldn't help but admire.

The carriage entered the city and continued on its way, and after about ten minutes, the carriage team came to a mansion and stopped, and then someone heard the children getting out of the carriage.

The children who saw the mansion were obviously more excited, scrambling to get out of the carriage. When Chu Yufan saw this situation, he also rushed to get out of the carriage.

Before leaving, Chu Yufan told himself that he should be low-key when he came here. Since you want to keep a low profile, then what others do, you will follow what you do, so that you will not easily attract the attention of others.

"Ladies and gentlemen, come and line up first, and we will count if there are all the people. Orrick shouted at the children who had disembarked, and the children ran to stand in front of him.

After seeing that everyone was standing, Orrick took out the list and began the roll call. After a while, the roll call was complete.

"Next, my housekeeper will be in charge of the children's diet, daily life, education, etc., let me introduce you to you first, Scott!"

A

man in a black suit and a brown tie walked up behind Orrick and introduced him to the children.

"In Scott, I will be responsible for all matters in the lives of the children, please give me a lot of advice. Scott said as his eyes scanned the expressions on the children's faces, and then stayed on Chu Yufan's face for a while before looking away.

"Delusion......" Scott thought to himself.

When Scott saw Chu Yufan just now, he didn't know why his heart hurt for no reason. However, when he looked at Chu Yufan again, this feeling disappeared, so Scott regarded this incident as an illusion.

At this time, Chu Yufan himself, goosebumps all over his body appeared. Because just now Scott looked at him as if the hunter had set his sights on the prey. Fortunately, Chu Yufan tried his best to control his expression, so he didn't show any flaws.

"This guy is definitely not your average butler, he's very strong. This is Chu Yufan's evaluation of Scott's first impression.
