Chapter 167: People Are Unreliable? I Won't Use People Anymore!
After painting big ambitions for everyone, they all left full of confidence.
Matthew specifically kept Butler Ralph for a moment, learning from him the details about the adventurers in Bay Territory, then calmly said:
"No worries, tomorrow everything will be resolved."
Butler Ralph maintained full confidence in the lord.
Little did he expect the method Matthew would use to resolve it.
In the study.
Matthew hummed a little tune as he picked out new clothes.
Using Mage Hand, he lifted a robe embroidered with the Arcanist insignia, standing still as it dressed him.
The hardworking Mage Hand then deftly removed his customized fabric armor and wrapped him in the robe.
It layered on a small vest embroidered with the Ser Family crest, finally covering it all with a shadowy cloak.
Matthew couldn't help but give the handsome man in the mirror a perfect score.
Glancing at Yaya standing before the mirror, who was happily admiring her new dress,
Matthew scooped her up and placed her on his shoulder, smiling as he asked:
"Do you like it? Should I get you a few more outfits?"
The cute little one eagerly nodded and started counting on her fingers, planning how many she would need...
"Yesterday's gone like the eastern flow, never to return..."
Humming his tune, Matthew pushed open the door to the laboratory.
Waiting patiently, Mountain silently watched him approach, greeting him as always:
"Welcome back to the laboratory, Master!"
What a wonderful worker!
Patting Mountain on the shoulder, Matthew once again appreciated the benefits of being tall, and as he looked over the neatly arranged blood-replenishing potions, he sincerely remarked:
"You've worked hard these past days."
"It's no hardship; it's what I should do."
Mountain's deep voice carried a calm and peaceful tone, as if he had grown accustomed to this routine long ago.
But Matthew didn't quite see it that way, carefully inspecting the production tools before snapping his fingers lightly:
"Hold on for 10 more days. After I resolve the territory issues, I'll come back to upgrade this place."
"Also, we need to discuss your growth path properly."
"Your achievements haven't been revealed yet, but your contributions won't go unnoticed. In these days, think carefully about what kind of advanced golem you want to become."
"I'm seeking your input on this."
Mountain silently regarded Matthew, as if digesting the words or perhaps already beginning to contemplate them.
Matthew gave Mountain a thoughtful look, a calm smile on his face, and turned towards his experiment area.
"They may look like lovebirds and butterflies, but this isn't the right era for that..."
Yaya curiously observed Matthew busily working, her large eyes brimming with a desire to learn as she eagerly watched, hoping to pick up some knowledge.
