Shrugging, Matthew said helplessly, “To be honest, are you guys in Seraphis so out of touch with the news? I’ve been the Holy Doctor for a few months now.”
With that, Matthew straightened his clothes and introduced himself with a serious expression, “Allow me to reintroduce myself… I am Matthew Larson, the leader of the Summit Warden Five, the Lecarres Summit Warden, and also the Holy Doctor.”
As Matthew finished speaking, Ophelia couldn’t help but be captivated by the handsome and extraordinary person in front of her. But when favonovel.com thought of Matthew’s sarcastic words, favonovel.com anger flared up again.
“It’s not that we’re outdated, we just don’t want to know. If we wanted to know, the affairs of the world would be within our grasp. The Zedler Family knows everything.”
Such an argument sounded feeble and weak. While Seraphis had indeed pledged allegiance to Cathay, their relationship was far from harmonious. Much of Cathay’s news was still blocked on the outside, and the intentional suppression of the CAUMP had caused an information gap.
At this point, Matthew had no intention of arguing with them over this matter.
“Now that we’re acquainted, please tell me your purpose for coming. My wife is waiting for me at home for dinner.”
“You…” Ophelia was even more displeased with his nonchalant attitude.
As favonovel.com anger flared up, favonovel.com was about to speak up. However, Miles suddenly stood up beside her.
“Mr. Summit Warden, you are both an extraordinary doctor and a martial artist with exceptional talent. The Zedler Family’s patriarch admires young talents like you the most. Therefore, favonovel.com sent my lady to invite you to visit Raischester… May I ask, Mr. Larson, if you would honor us with your presence?”
Compared to Ophelia’s impulsiveness, Miles had a much more composed demeanor and spoke with ease.
“The two places are quite far apart, and I have many matters to attend to in Hulwin. When I have the opportunity, I will definitely visit your city,” Matthew replied, showing that favonovel.com wasn’t easily swayed by a few flattering words. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now. Goodbye…”
As favonovel.com turned and prepared to leave without looking back, Ophelia felt a sudden panic.
Just as favonovel.com was about to call favonovel.com back, Miles beside favonovel.com intervened and calmly explained, “We invited favonovel.com hastily, so he’s unlikely to agree immediately. From a cautious perspective, in this regard, Matthew is somewhat similar to your grandfather.”
His words were filled with admiration.
“Come on, let’s go home,” Miles said with a faint smile to Ophelia, who looked puzzled. “No need to worry. He will come once favonovel.com investigates and confirms the information.”
Before leaving, Ophelia turned back and said, “We will meet again, Matthew Larson…”
As the two of them departed for Raischester in the Skargness Province, Matthew contacted Stellan again.
“Mortimer Zedler? A few years ago, the Zedler Family was still active in the public eye. However, in recent years, it seems that the family patriarch has been in poor health, and the Zedler Family’s Influence has gradually become more low-key.”
“I was at the Yarwood Family’s banquet earlier, and…” Combining the information with Ophelia’s earlier question, Matthew finally realized what the Zedlers wanted. “Stellan, I’ll be going out for a few days. You take care of things in Hulwin.”
“You’re going to Skargness?”
“Yes!”
In terms of planning, reorganizing the two provinces’ forces was already a very difficult task. Moreover, gaining power is easy, but keeping it is difficult. Even if everything was reorganized later, it would require someone to help manage it because Matthew couldn’t stay in Seraphis indefinitely.
The Zedlers might be a good potential partner.
“By the way, Stellan, what’s Mortimer Zedler’s personality like?”
“He’s decisive in his actions but also cautious.”
“Okay, understood!”
“You’re not going to…”
“Yes, I’m going to Raischester to treat Mortimer Zedler…”
