Cursed Immortality Chapter 58 Town Lord

Inside the lord's mansion,

The town lord, Ciaran, was standing in front of a seated beauty with an agitated expression on his sowhat wrinkled face.

Ciaran spoke politely, despite being the town lord, "Lady Jennifer, how're your injuries?"

This beauty was indeed Gus's sister, Jennifer, who escaped from the wolf king chase and found her way back to rain town with so minor injuries.

Jennifer replied impassively, "I'm fine. Thank you for asking Lord Ciaran. But I need to know if you found anything about my brother's whereabouts or Lady Kiana?"

Ciaran's expression clouded at hearing this and thought resentfully, 'Bitch, you clearly knew what would've happened to them since you said there was a wolf king. But you insist on putting this façade and turning the trouble on my way…'

He was extrely resentful and horrified after he heard there was a wolf king on the dark wolf ridge. But he was more afraid of the baron of Gloria's country because it was 95% possible that Gus was dead, and he had to suffer the backlash from the Baron for this.

However, he had to deal with the wolf king first before giving an explanation to Baron. He knew, that as long as he could present the wolf king's head to the baron, he might escape the disaster with minimum losses.

But he also knew to kill the wolf king, he needed to hire C Rank rcenaries and not just one but three or five, which will also cost him a fortune, since hiring those C Rank rcenaries wasn't cheap.

But what can he do? If he didn't do sothing, even if the Baron didn't demolish his rain town, those wolves might!

However, Jennifer was giving him more headaches with her princess attitude and making things difficult for him. She just insisted on searching for Gus, despite knowing their possible ending.

Ciaran said with a forced smile, "I'm afraid we'll be only sending our n to their death if there's really a wolf king."

Jennifer narrowed her eyes. "Are you implying I'm lying? Or those commoners' lives are more important than my brother and friend?"

Ciaran felt unhappy inwardly, but he remained polite, "Milady, I know you're worried about your loved ones, but we have to send so powerful people. What if we found the young lord, but they drag him down? We can't have that, right?"

Jennifer nodded. "Yes, you are right. Issue a mission in the rcenary agency to arrange a search party. Also, please send a letter to my father about what happened here. He'll help you find my brother."

Ciaran nodded, "I have already taken care of the mission milady and sent a ssenger pigeon to Lord Baron as well. We'll get Lord's response in a week."

Jennifer showed a joyful expression. "Thank you. I'll rember your favor."

"Please don't jest, it's sothing I should do. I'll take my leave now, please rest easy, my lady. If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask." Ciaran bow slightly before he left the room.

The mont Ciaran left the room, Jennifer's pitiful expression suddenly turned cold, and her lips curled upward.

'It seed those people aren't simple to even arrange a wolf king to get rid of my brother. The title of Baron will be mine as long as I do what they say!'

Ciaran appeared in the hall with an exhausted face, without knowing about Jennifer's hidden motives.

At this mont, an old man with gray hair and wearing butler clothes appeared. He bowed slightly and said, "My lord, I have sothing interesting to report."

Ciaran smiled seeing the old man and said, "Uncle Harland, how many tis do I have told you that you didn't need to act courteously when we're alone?"

Harland smiled and rely said, "Please don't. I'm rely a servant of the house, Taran. I don't deserve such a privilege."

Ciaran smiled wryly, "You're as stubborn as my father when it cos to manners, aren't you? Please tell the important report?"

Harland said, "My lord, I just received the news that a new C Rank rcenary has appeared in our town!"

Ciaran's expression suddenly changed and quickly asked, "Are you sure? Is he from our town?"

Ciaran knew if this C Rank rcenary was a resident of rain town, he didn't need to worry about backlash from Baron because no one would be foolish enough to move against a hotown of C Rank rcenary.

At least not a baron-ranked noble!

Harland replied, "We don't know yet, but according to our sources his appearance is new, and he just recently appeared in our town and rent a house at the town's edge. Not only that, he seed to be extrely mysterious because he only used one move to achieve the C Rank.

"I'm afraid so people might make a move, especially the Golden Claw Team Leader. That fellow is quite cunning and won't let such a person roam free on his turf."

Ciaran's expression turn sowhat ugly when he heard the last sentence and couldn't help but gnashed his teeth, "That ungrateful scum has forgotten the benefits he received from us, and now he didn't even give face after becoming famous.

"I want you to approach this new C Rank rcenary personally before that scum had the chance and offer our congratulation gift and invite him to our house, Taran. As long as he agreed to give us his protection, anything is open for negotiation.

"If he didn't agree, don't push the topic, just form a good relationship with him. We had already tried controlling a C Rank rcenary and look, we only bought up a snake in our backyard."

Harland sighed as he rembered the past and nodded, "I'll deal with it personally. Don't worry, my lord. But that rcenary is quite sothing. It appeared he took a C Rank mission right after receiving his license and left the town. Now no one could approach him until he gets back."

Ciaran frowned, "Then keep an eye on his return and make a move instantly. I don't think that arrogant prick would resist the allure of hunting a wolf king and wait for him!"
