Chapter 564
Severin answered, “Just call your hall master over and get him up to speed about what happened here. In the meantime, could you get your men to carry out these three bodies and deal with them? It’s affecting the atmosphere of our feast!”
“Sure.” Roland nodded and said to the rest of the men from Equus Hall, “Take these corpses out, dispose of them, and wipe off the blood on the ground! Don’t let this ruin Mister Severin’s mood!”
“Yes, sir!” The subordinates all breathed a sigh of relief. Though Severin was decisive when killing people, he was not the kind to go around killing innocent people for no good reason. They only followed Humbert and Geoffrey under their orders, and it was not as if they wanted to come along. Before long, the subordinates carried the three corpses out and left.
“About our hall master, Mister Severin…I’m afraid now’s not a good time, and our hall master will not be pleased to be disturbed in the middle of sleep!” Roland thought of an alternative and turned to tell Severin, “Would tomorrow do? If you’re free tomorrow, I’ll bring our hall master to meet you first thing. tomorrow morning!”
Severin said, “I’m sorry, but I’m pressed for time, and I’m leaving by tomorrow morning. Tell you what, why don’t you give your hall master a call right now? Just say that I killed some of Equus Hall’s people and that you’re no match for me. I bet your hall master is going to rush right over after hearing that!”
Roland was speechless. Their hall master would have no choice but to come if Roland repeated what Severin said to him! In the end, Severin’s repeated pestering left him no choice but to take out his cell phone and make a call.
Severin, on the other hand, did not expect a woman to answer the phone. She hung up in anger as soon as she heard what Roland had to say, but not before declaring that she would bring a couple of men over to kill Severin.
“Your hall master is a woman?” Severin asked after the woman hung up on Roland.
In response, Roland could not help but ask Severin, “Don’t you know that our first-in-command is a woman?”
Severin smiled awkwardly and replied, “Uhh… to be honest, no, I didn’t know that. I just happened to be passing by, and I assumed that the leaders of all such organizations were men. It’s quite refreshing to see a woman as the head!”
“Haha!” Roland laughed when he heard that. “She’s not just a woman, you know. She’s a young and incredibly charming woman. Though I must warn you that she has an extremely explosive temper, which is probably because she never had a boyfriend before. She’s like a tigress, and no ordinary man would be able to subdue her!”
“Oh, is it so?”
After hearing that, Severin smiled and asked, “What’s her name?”
“Gracie. Gracie Swiften!” Roland said with a smile.
“All right then, Roland! Corne over and have a few drinks with me! I consider you a friend now that we’ve exchanged blows!” Severin said with a smile.
