Chapter 238

It was already late at night.

The two men were still crouching at the hotel entrance.

In this weather, the temperature at night was very low.

Their clothes weren't very thick, so they were shivering from the cold.

"I-I say, why don't we just leave?" one of them said while hugging his arms, "It's just too cold!"

"No way! What if we get a chance to go inside?" the other one said while rubbing his hands, "Boss Gu might soften up at any moment... Besides, other hotel guests might help us buy food and weapons!"

Just as he finished speaking, they heard footsteps of several people behind them.

The two turned around hopefully.

Before they could clearly see who had arrived, their heads were covered.

Although the hotel entrance had protection mechanisms for guests, these two were already on the hotel's blacklist, so they couldn't benefit from any protection.

"What are you doing?"

"What do you want?"

The two struggled quickly, but these people wouldn't give them a chance, immediately launching into a barrage of punches and kicks.

The two were on the verge of breaking down.

"Why are you beating us?"

"Stop—ah!"

They took quite a beating.

After what seemed like forever, their attackers finally left.

The two managed to struggle and remove the bags from their heads.

There was no one around anymore.

They had taken a beating and didn't even know who had attacked them!

At this point, they really couldn't take it anymore.

"We can't go on like this!"

"Y-yeah, who knows who else might come to beat us up..."

"Should we leave?"

"Let's wait until dawn, we'll leave at dawn..."

It was still deep in the night, and they were afraid of encountering vampires.

In their current state, they had no way to fight against vampires.

So they could only wait until dawn to leave.

But what they didn't expect was that after a while, another group of people came, covered their heads, and gave them another severe beating!

This time they were truly done for!Nôv(el)B\\jnn

As soon as the sky began to show the first light of dawn, the two crawled away from the hotel entrance - literally crawled away!

...

Doyle, the prince's teacher, woke up very early every morning.

He would first sit in his room and meditate for a while, then go to the back garden to exercise.

As a wizard, physical strength was also very important.

He was getting on in years now, and if he didn't exercise, his stamina would really start to fail him.

After he had been exercising for a while, he saw another man walking over.

This man looked suspicious, constantly glancing around.

Moreover, he felt that this man looked familiar, but couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

Soon, the man also noticed him.

The man was startled and blurted out: "Wizard Doyle? Why are you here too?"

"You know me?" Doyle frowned slightly, "I do feel like you look familiar, where have we met?"

The man seemed to remember something and quickly said, "No, no we haven't."

But he had already called out Doyle's name just now.

It was too late to deny knowing him now.

Just as he was about to make up another excuse, Doyle suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "I remember now... you're one of Moli's subordinates, aren't you?"

Moli was another wizard besides Doyle.

Back then, they had both studied magic under the same teacher, making them something like fellow apprentices.
