Casey woke up in a tree the next morning.
Although there was a row of wooden houses by the river, most of them had been occupied by Casey's fellow apprentices, and only one was left, which was also given to Annabel.
Annabel was very happy to live in a room with Casey, but the current situation was different from that in Christine's family. Naturally, Casey could not agree to continue living in the same room with Annabel, so he found a tree as a place to sleep.
When he was kicked out of the Davies family, Casey had been in any harsh place, so sleeping in a tree was nothing to him.
Coming down from the tree, Casey heard a whispering sound not far away, turned his head and saw that there were more than a dozen figures staring in the direction of the river.
Annabel was washing her hair there at this time, and the fairy-like face made Casey's fellow apprentices salivate.
In the mountains, the only heterosexual creatures they could see were probably hens and foxes. Naturally, they had great desire and fantasy for girls.
Nowadays, a woman suddenly appeared here, and she was so beauty. Naturally, these single men couldn't look away.
Annabel was very embarrassed to be stared at by these a dozen people. After washing her hair in embarrassment, she tossed her head gently, which caused the dozen single men to exclaim in exclamation.
Casey walked over here. After Annabel saw him, as if she had found a savior, she hurried to Casey's side.
"Casey, these people are so weird. They kept staring at me when I washed their hair, making me embarrassed," Annabel complained.
Casey glanced at those people. They should all be his master's apprentices. Some of them knew Casey, and some looked very strange. They came to learn from the master after Casey left.
It stood to reason that a person of master's level would choose its apprentices carefully, and it was almost enough to have one or two apprentices. After all, no matter how many apprentices one had, it was better to pass on the skill to one apprentice.
However, Casey's master likes to travel around the world and accept apprentices everywhere. Although he would also check their qualifications when he accepted his apprentices, compared with other masters, Casey's master had too many apprentices, and now only a small part of them stayed in the mountains.
Casey didn't understand why his master did this. Maybe he just liked teaching apprentices.
And Casey still didn't know his master's name. After he became one of his apprentices, the master was only responsible for teaching him skills. He didn't care about everything else, and he never talked about his past. And he did the same to other apprentices
Therefore, in Casey's mind, his master was still somewhat mysterious.
Casey's fellow apprentices turned their heads and looked towards Casey. After seeing Casey, they showed disdain on their face.
They had heard the news of Casey's return from Dick, and after knowing that this fairy was brought back by Casey, they immediately became hostile to Casey.
Now seeing Annabel looking like timid and lovable little woman in front of Casey, they felt a little upset.
The head of these people was a man with sharp edges and a trace of cold light in his eyes. This man was named Baron and was one of the early apprentices of the master.
At that time, Casey was young and frivolous, and had some problems with Baron, who performed well at the time. However, at that time Casey was strong and Baron couldn't beat him, so he could only endure it.
Now Baron had cultivated inner force, and he was the strongest among the three apprentices who had learned inner force.
