Chapter 54: Plan
The entire wall was full of candles which made the area around the mansion bright.
There were no walls surrounding the mansion. The courtyard merged with the street.
However, one could not think of making a mess in the mansion just because it had no walls.
That was because there were many large monsters in the mansion, consisting of Levels 7 to 10.
They guarded the mansion, looking at passersby with menacing gazes.
"This mansion belongs to the Dortmund Family. That old man, Ramsey, lives here," Jenny said in a low voice, startling Aldric.
"Really?"
Aldric had expected them to own such a luxurious residence in this world.
Their investment seemed to be completely out of control.
With so many monsters, the Dortmund Family practically only showed their wealth to either players or NPCs.
Aldric’s steps stopped since he knew this was the Dortmund Family’s residence.
"Why did you stop? You’re not planning anything weird, are you?" asked Jenny, knitting her brows.
"Aldric, here, there are too many members of the Dortmund Family. They also employ some powerful Magicians. It’s not easy to come into conflict with them." The woman seemed unable to stop talking.
She was worried that Aldric was really doing something strange. The problem was that this man never took her advice.
Aldric did not respond immediately.
One of his clones came out suddenly from the Space Artifact, which surprised Jenny somewhat.
Although the clone was wearing a cloak with a hood, being in front of her, the woman could see his face.
She almost staggered seeing him in half. Read new adventures at мѵʟ
Unfortunately, she did not yet know that he had a clone. She also didn’t know that he could create a clone after destroying someone else’s clone.
"Now we go," Aldric said in his real body to Jenny.
He grabbed her hand and pulled her away, leaving his clone that was blocking the Dead Fish and the Demon Horse by his side.
When her hand was pulled away by Aldric, Jenny seemed to lose her mind.
Fortunately, she realized quickly before he took her far enough.
She forcefully stopped her steps.
"Aldric, don’t make trouble. Here, you can’t fight the Dortmund Family," she said, trying to keep her voice low so as not to be heard by the people passing by on their left and right.
"I have to do this or I won’t be able to calm down," Aldric replied.
"Why?" Jenny wrinkled her forehead.
Aldric glanced at the Dead Fish and the Demon Horse for a moment.
After sighing, he told Jenny about them most likely knowing that he was the one who killed Ramsey’s clone and he could not help but involve them in the action against Ramsey so that they would continue to keep this secret.
He wanted to get them to mess up at the Dortmund Family residence because then, they would really be completely attached to him.
Upon learning that, Jenny’s expression changed. Sometimes she seemed to pout, which also made her long ears move slightly.
"Why are you only telling me this now?" she asked.
"If I don’t tell you now, you’ll interfere with my plans," Aldric replied with an innocent expression.
Of course, his answer made Jenny’s eyes almost bulge.
"Don’t you understand what I mean?" she said with quickened breath.
"I mean why didn’t you tell me earlier so I could help you. Who would have gotten in the way of your plans if I knew this."
Jenny didn’t expect Aldric to misunderstand her point.
Of course, she was quite aware that he might be playing her on purpose.
However, she knew he wasn’t stupid. There was no way he would misunderstand her.
This made her feel frustrated.
Although this man was pleasing to her eyes, she still felt like clawing him for being played like this.
"I can take care of this myself," Aldric replied with almost no reaction as she began to look frustrated.
At the same time, his clone and the Dead Fish and Demon Horse had already walked away, disappearing from Jenny’s sight.
"What are you going to do?" asked Jenny.
She felt she could no longer give Aldric advice, so she could only ask how he planned to do it.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t something Aldric could answer right now.
His plan wasn’t a plan or rather he didn’t have a plan yet. He only planned to do something with the Demon Horse and the Dead Fish.
What would he do?
He would just go with the flow.
At this moment, his clone with the two men went to the street behind the mansion.
It was a smaller and quiet street. The backyard of the mansion itself contained a small orchard, from vineyards to apples.
Large monsters also stood guard here. Some seemed to be very scary.
Aldric didn’t know most of the types of monsters.
"Boss, do you want to steal from this mansion?" asked the Dead Fish.
He and the Demon Horse still didn’t know that this mansion belonged to the Dortmund Family.
The two of them really didn’t hear Aldric and Jenny’s conversation.
It was just that, from Aldric’s movements so far, he suspected he had a special plan.
"Boss, this mansion must belong to someone very powerful. I’m afraid we’ll only mess ourselves up if we do something here," said the Demon Horse.
He might be a robber, and stealing was something more hidden, but he was also rational, knowing what he could do and what he could not.
Just by looking at the monsters on guard, he couldn’t think of a way to get into this mansion.
"Just follow me," Aldric replied without caring about their thoughts.
He took steps quietly.
At the same time, there was suddenly a carriage made of steel, which was commonly used to transport goods that came in the front yard of the mansion, seen by his original body and Jenny.
The carriage was pulled by a sizable black horse.
What made it interesting was that it was guarded by nearly 30 bodyguards.
