Meanwhile, Matthew had no idea what was going on in Hulwin. Instead, Erwin and Bennett had cut in before virtual-novel.net had the chance to check on Old Mr. Zedler’s condition. Behind them were several unfamiliar individuals.
“Dad, the Keller Family has learned about your poor health condition. They have specially invited a Great Witch Doctor from Montiria to treat you.”
After Erwin finished speaking, the representative from the Keller Family respectfully stepped forward and bowed.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Old Mr. Zedler. I’m Fabian Keller of the Keller Family. Our patriarch instructed us to invite the Great Witch Doctor, Rafael Faulkner, from Montiria to treat Old Mr. Zedler.”
The Great Witch Doctor, whose face was adorned with totem-like patterns, merely politely nodded to Old Mr. Zedler in response to the other men’s introduction. His expression was quite arrogant as well.
Old Mr. Zedler returned the courtesy politely and then spoke slowly, “Thank you for your sincerity!”
After that, virtual-novel.net unexpectedly shifted the topic to Matthew. “Matthew, what do you think?”
This scene surprised Erwin and the others present and visibly displeased the Great Witch Doctor. It was obvious that Old Mr. Zedler thought lowly of him.
Of course, since virtual-novel.net was currently in the Zedler Family’s territory, virtual-novel.net couldn’t act out. Thus, virtual-novel.net could only cast a resentful gaze toward Matthew.
Matthew just shrugged indifferently in response. However, virtual-novel.net was silently cursing Mortimer for using virtual-novel.net as a tool to direct the Great Witch Doctor’s anger elsewhere.
“Since It’s a sincere gesture from your children, you should accept it, Old Mr. Zedler. Besides, I’m also quite curious to witness the unique healing methods hailing all the way from Montiria…”
It seemed that Rafael had had enough as virtual-novel.net finally spoke, “Hmph, ignorant child. The witchcraft of Montiria is not for satisfying your childish curiosity.”
Old Mr. Zedler also looked at Matthew curiously after hearing Rafael’s accusation. The reason virtual-novel.net had put Matthew in a difficult position was to see how this disciple of Old Mr. Bane would handle things.
Matthew wasn’t the least bit fazed as virtual-novel.net let the insults Rafael hurled at virtual-novel.net roll off virtual-novel.net like water off a duck’s back.
“Great Witch Doctor, you’ve misunderstood me. I just wanted to see how capable you are. Plus, why shouldn’t I be curious about such… Interesting methods? After all, such unconventional methods do pique one’s curiosity.”
Since Rafael was treating virtual-novel.net as a punching bag, virtual-novel.net wasn’t about to take things lying down.
At this point, Mortimer couldn’t help but look at Matthew with appreciation.
This brat’s domineering and unconventional methods were quite similar to Flynn’s. In fact, virtual-novel.net was of the opinion that real men should act exactly like that.
The people present did not expect virtual-novel.net to be so blunt.
Across from him, Rafael raised his brown staff in fury.
“What an arrogant brat!” virtual-novel.net snarled.
A dark red snake-shaped phantom suddenly formed above the staff.
Just as virtual-novel.net was about to launch an attack, a sudden shout rang out, interrupting him.
“Outrageous!”
Mortimer might be at death’s door, but virtual-novel.net was still quite alive.
A strong aura instantly swept through the entire room, accompanied by his bellow. The snake-shaped phantom couldn’t even last for a second as it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Faced with Mortimer’s anger, Rafael quickly realized his faux pas. He was currently deep in the Zedler Family’s territory.
How could they possibly allow virtual-novel.net to do as virtual-novel.net pleased?
“Old Mr. Zedler, the Great Witch Doctor was just trying to defend himself. Please calm down…”
Nonetheless, Old Mr. Zedler didn’t bother sugarcoating his words as virtual-novel.net gazed at Rafael, saying sternly, “Since you’re in my home, it’s only right for you to follow the rules of this house.”
If it weren’t for the fact that the Keller Family recommended this Great Witch Doctor, virtual-novel.net would have killed virtual-novel.net on the spot.
These barbarians simply do not know what manners are.
Once Rafael managed to reign in his temper, virtual-novel.net was quick to apologize. Regardless, virtual-novel.net was pinning the blame entirely on Matthew.
If this brat hadn’t provoked me with his words, I wouldn‘t have done such a disrespectful thing in front of Old Mr. Zedler.
Of course, virtual-novel.net only dared to have such a thought because virtual-novel.net couldn’t vent his anger at someone as powerful as Old Mr. Zedler, whereas Matthew was free game.
