The Genius Mage Chapter 172 – Fell Into Doubt

Chapter 172: Fell Into Doubt

“If you insist on thinking this way, I have nothing more to say. After all, my meaning has been conveyed very clearly.”

Audrey only glanced at her indifferently before she turned around and left.

Looking at the back of the person who had turned around and left without any lingering feelings, Joyce was dumbfounded. She had stayed on the jury for so long, but no one had dared to reject her in this manner.

“Heh, Audrey, right?” Joyce clenched her fists, her hands by her side. “I’d like to see how long you can stay here.”

Audrey’s actions had stirred up a discussion among the crowd. No one had expected her to be so arrogant that she even dared to reject the invitation of the jury.

For a moment, the name Audrey fell into a whirlpool and was spread among the crowd for a long time.

“Hahahaha… I didn’t expect you to be like this, Miss Audrey.”

After hearing what those people said, Klein laughed so hard that he could not even stand straight.

Hobart raised his hand and slapped his shoulder, signaling him to be more reserved.

“Don’t hit me yet, because this matter is indeed very laughable. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Joyce suffer. This is simply too funny.”

Klein raised his hand and wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes. “Miss Audrey, What were you thinking? To reject her in public. Aren’t you afraid that she won’t give you face and will cause trouble for you in the future?”

Audrey looked at him helplessly. “If she’s already smiling like this, then there’s no need to use honorifics anymore.”

“Alright, there’s no need for that. Please forgive my rudeness, because this matter is too funny.” Klein forced himself to catch his breath.

When he had heard about this matter, Klein still did not believe it. After all, how could someone as arrogant as Joyce be shamed in front of everyone? She had been in the Templar Knights for so long… he had never seen anyone who could make Joyce so angry.

Audrey was the first.

“Actually, I feel that this matter is very normal. Since he was the one who sent me an invitation, I have the right to refuse. I don’t have to force myself to agree to it,” Audrey said.

In her opinion, joining the so-called jury was just a waste of time. Instead of working in a place that worked hard for others, she might as well use this time to learn more about magic.

“Although that’s the case, have you ever thought about what you would do if she chose to make things difficult for you because she was bullied?” Hobart frowned, clearly a little worried.

After all, Joyce had been with them for a long time, so her reputation was naturally well-known.

In addition, she had great power and could be said to be a powerful existence. Even the few of them did not dare to act recklessly.

Audrey lowered her eyes. “I’m not sure. However, for me, I shouldn’t be focusing on these things. It’s not too late for me to think of a countermeasure when she comes knocking on my door.”

After hearing this, Klein raised his eyebrows.

“In that case, we’ve come to look for you this time because we have another question to ask you.”

“What?” Audrey looked up at him. For some reason, after meeting those azure eyes, Klein felt as though his thoughts had been seen through.

That was because those eyes were too clear. They were like bottomless wells. Just their appearance alone was enough to enter one’s heart.

“When you were fighting the girl with the whip, the few of us went to watch. We also heard some things about your trial,” Klein said as he sat on the stone bench beside him.

“If I’m not wrong, there might be names that can not be mentioned in the trial.”

Audrey curled the corners of her lips. Klein was really sharp. It was obvious that no one else knew anything, but they could actually guess what was going on inside.

Hobart had clearly noticed Audrey’s gaze. His hands by his side unconsciously tightened.

Audrey averted her eyes. She did not want to talk about it, because the Carol Association’s existence was a little scary.

But… now that the other person is aware of it, instead of letting him spend so much time digging up the truth. Might as well go with the flow and tell him the truth.

Besides, they are teammates now.

The existence of the word ‘teammate’ was not limited to ordinary friends. They needed to know everything about each other. Only then could they truly entrust their lives to each other.

“Just as you’ve guessed, a huge variable has appeared in the trial,” Audrey said, “I can give you a rough figure. Five people were chosen to join the Templar Knights during the trial. Among those five people, two of them are related to that matter.”

At that time, after the trial ended, Audrey had already noticed that Xavier and Daisy had been chosen, as well as Kate and an unknown boy.

When she thought of this matter, Audrey suddenly realized.

No wonder she found the boy from yesterday very familiar. It turned out to be another person who had been chosen.

However, why he was chosen despite looking ordinary and Audrey having no impression of him during the trial was not revealed.

Audrey stuck out the tip of her tongue and pursed her lower lip. It seemed like she would have to look for Kate to understand the situation when she had the chance.
