Chapter 201 Viscount
"I'm very sorry, the young master is not in the mansion, if you want to find the young master, please find another time."

The man in deacon's uniform bowed his head and apologized to everyone.

At this moment, the three of them stood outside the iron gate, their eyes full of embarrassment.

"Are you not there?" Sophie showed a disappointed expression. They rarely found Viscount Horace's mansion under Ronald's leadership, but they were stopped cleanly outside the door.

The mansion is extremely magnificent, and it is unique in the high-end neighborhood far away from the main street. The several-storey mansion stands here, looking more like a landmark tourist attraction.

"Actually, we are adventurers entrusted by Master Nick, and now we are here to help Master Nick solve..."

"I'm very sorry, we can't let you in without an appointment and the master's instructions." Just as Ronald anxiously explained the reason to the deacon again, his words were ruthlessly interrupted.

"Since this is the case, then there is nothing we can do." Ronald sighed, then turned around and shrugged towards Jasmine and Sophie.

"Then... when will Master Nick come back?" Jasmine seemed unconvinced. After all, time was limited. If the mission failed due to this reason, no one would be happy.

"The young master has gone out to play. If you wait here, you will be back in the evening."

"Does that mean we have to wait here until the evening?" Ronald asked the two ladies for their opinions in embarrassment.

Sophie spread her hands: "There is no way, we must have clues to find the griffin, otherwise we are also headless flies that can only wander around."

"Ugh."

The three of them sighed in unison, and could only stand against the wall by the door.

"Why don't we go shopping and come back in the evening to ask about the situation." Ronald suggested.

"No." Jasmine flatly refused, "Time is limited, we will just wait here."

Now that Jasmine had spoken, the other two had no room to back down as helpers.

At this moment, a noble carriage slowly approached not far from the mansion.

Everyone watched as the carriage stopped. In the carriage behind, the door of the carriage opened wide, and a nobleman stepped down slowly.

"What are these people doing? Why are they standing at my door?"

It was an extremely arrogant voice.

The aristocratic man in his 40s had a look of disdain on his face, and his clothes were very luxurious, no, in Sophie's opinion, it should be more accurate to say that it is funny than luxurious.

Although it wasn't winter, the nobleman's coat was decorated with sable fur, and the color of his clothes was very dazzling. Even if he stood in the crowd, he could suddenly become the focus of everyone's attention.

Seeing Sophie's disgusted expression, Ronald quietly whispered into Sophie's ear: "Hey, don't put on that expression, this is Viscount Horace."

"Viscount Horace? Could it be that young master's father?"

Sophie was taken aback, no wonder she felt that she had seen this arrogant appearance somewhere before, as expected, her son's habits were all learned from his father.

"What are you afraid of? Could he beat us?" Sophie said as she rolled up her sleeves.

"Huh? What happened, Lord Viscount."

Just when Sophie wanted to glare Viscount Horace back aggressively, a muscular man stepped out of the carriage.

The man's chest was exposed, and he was only wearing a thin outer jacket. His bulging deltoid muscles looked like a lump of pig iron, so hard that it made people laugh.

Compared with Ronald, the man was at least a head taller. He was scanning the three adventurers with his eyes wide open at this moment, and he poked his mustache so delightfully that Sophie almost burst out laughing.

"The lion... the fierce fist of the lion and the tiger..."

Although Sophie felt delighted, both Ronald and Jasmine unconsciously took a step back in fright.

"What's the matter? Do you know him?" Sophie asked Jasmine curiously.

Jasmine hurriedly pulled Sophie aside: "This is one of the few A-level adventurers in Saint-Ur."

An A-level adventurer is like a god compared to two C-level adventurers and a trainee adventurer.

The aura emanating from that man was enough to shock everyone before the battle - of course Sophie didn't feel it.

"Oh? Do you know me? Are you also adventurers?"

The liger fiercely narrowed his eyes when he heard Jasmine and Sophie's whispers.

Ronald hurriedly stood in front of the other two, and saluted Viscount Horace and the lion and tiger fiercely: "The three of us are adventurers from the Adventurer's Association. Because we received the commission from Master Nick, we came here to inquire about entrusted information."

"Hmph, why don't you go in at the door?" Viscount Horace raised his head in contempt. "Could it be that the thief wants to do something here?"

"Hey, don't you bastard, it's your servant who won't let us in!"

Sophie stood up unconvinced, as if she wanted to argue with the arrogant man.

Jasmine hastily grabbed the violent girl and stopped her.

"Sophie, that's a noble master! Do you want to die?"

"Hmph, this kind of nobleman is nothing in front of the young master." Sophie argued in a low voice, but she followed Jasmine's persuasion and stopped talking.

"Hmph, did my unworthy son cause any trouble?" Viscount Horace asked the three of them indifferently, without looking directly at them.

Seeing the opportunity came, Ronald quickly said, "The King Kong Griffon raised by Master Nick got lost, so I entrusted our Adventurer's Association to help find it."

"Oh? Did the griffin finally run away?"

Viscount Horace shook his head, "I already told him not to keep that kind of thing, oh, forget it, come in with me."

Viscount Horace also seemed to feel that there was some trouble, so he waved to the three of them and led them into the house.

The attendant at the door hastily opened the iron gate and welcomed Viscount Horace in.

Sophie and the others followed behind, looking at the grand scene behind the door with some curiosity.

Behind the iron gate is a vast courtyard, rockery and rocks can be seen everywhere, and some unknown ornamental trees are planted. The majestic mansion stands behind the courtyard, like a secret treasure hidden in a treasure chest.

Passing through the smooth stone road, they entered the house. The hall was magnificent, and the dazzling crystal lamps emitted the light like the sun.

When Viscount Horace came back, nearly ten deacons and maids surrounded him.

"Welcome back, Lord Patriarch."

The deacon saluted with the maid, but Viscount Horace didn't even look at it. He seemed to be feeling hot, so he took off his coat and handed it to the deacon.

"You three, come to my office."

Viscount Horace ordered coldly, and said a lot of other words, and went straight to the stairs going upstairs.
