Chapter 89: Chapter 85: Little Sister Audrey

"Indeed, Kali is a newly established noble. How could I forget!" Luo’er slapped his forehead, speaking as if he had an epiphany.

"New nobles are still nobles. If we can use her to infiltrate the academy, we will be able to spy on the Mage Legion." Cheng Ziang looked at everyone’s sudden understanding of his plan and wore a satisfied smile on his face.

"But, will she agree?" Tangmo looked around at everyone uneasily and asked.

"Kali owes Luo’er such a great favor. If she has any conscience, she would agree to his request!" Hu Daoke waved his hand dismissively.

"Indeed," Luo’er nodded, musing, "From my time spent with her, I’m quite sure she’s not heartless."

"So who’s going to infiltrate the academy?" As soon as Tangmo heard Luo’er’s assessment of Kali, she puffed up her cheeks with a sour look and asked.

"Certainly not Luo’er," Cheng Ziang spoke, casting a glance towards Luo’er, "He is a half-elf and does not qualify to be a noble."

Everyone looked worriedly at Luo’er after hearing Cheng Ziang’s words. But Luo’er seemed relieved, spread his hands and shrugged.

"Neither can it be Hu Daoke," continued Cheng Ziang, smiling at Hu Daoke, "He is a beastman hybrid and a magic waste."

"You.. your mouth is full of honey, always there to sneer at me" Hu Daoke rolled his eyes, waving his hand and said, "I won’t stoop to your level!"

"Baiyue can’t be the one either, her background is too easy to look into!" Cheng Ziang stated.

Baiyue is from the Rabbit-Ears Tribe, and Meila Village is the only Rabbit-Ears Tribe village on the entire continent. Once the people from academy start investigating, she would be exposed quickly.

"Humph, I get it, you’re the best candidate!" While supporting his chin, Hu Daoke showed a cold, sarcastic smile.

"Neither can I. I’m not fit to stay in the academy." Cheng Ziang shrugged.

"Then the only one who can undertake this role is..." Everyone’s eyes started to fix on Tangmo.

"I.. I can’t do it!" Upon seeing everyone staring at her, Tangmo panicked and hurriedly waved her hands.

"Though Moumou looks East Asian, her features are actually quite structured. So they probably won’t figure it out. Just tell them she’s a Southerner if need be." Luo’er nodded while speaking.

"Sister Moumou is very powerful in magic. She should be able to easily enter the academy from within!" Hu Daoke also chimed in.

"Relying solely on her won’t do. It would be best if we could sneak in with at least one other person!" Cheng Ziang analyzed.

"You guys really aren’t listening to me.." Tangmo fracturedly uttered in a soft voice, showing a pitiful face.

"Sister Moumou," Hu Daoke patted her shoulder, voicing his expectations. "It’s been decided that you will infiltrate the enemy."

"I.. I can’t do it!" Tangmo rushed her hands with an almost crying voice.

"It’s alright, Moumou. I will accompany you to get in." Luo’er held her hand and comforted her softly.

"Luo’er..." Looking at him, Tangmo slightly pouted, wearing a woeful face.

"But, how are we going to talk to Kali about this?" Hu Daoke suddenly recalled this matter and inquired.

Luo’er and Cheng Ziang exchanged glances, then spoke, "Since Kali and Moumou have met, we can go straight to her. We’ll tell Kali that Moumou wants to learn magic, hence she wants to pose as Kali’s relative and slip into the academy."

"Will that work?" Hu Daoke asked with uncertainty.

"It should work." Luo’er nodded and added, "I trust Kali’s character."

"So it’s settled?" Hu Daoke confirmed with everyone.

"Yes," Luo’er nodded, pondering, "If we succeed, it would be best to sneak a few others in as well. This would make our operations easier."

"How are we going to do that?" Hu Daoke asked.

"Hmm," Luo’er thought, then said, "Nobles always have servants and housekeepers. I’ll pretend to be a servant, and Ziang, you can pretend to be the housekeeper.

Does that sound okay?"

As he spoke, Luo’er looked at Cheng Ziang.

Hearing Luo’er’s words, Cheng Ziang hummed coldly, showing a bitter smile and then shaking his head.

"What’s wrong?" Luo’er couldn’t understand his reaction.

"Have you noticed," Cheng Ziang stood straight up, casting a cold smile at Luo’er, "That you’re different from other half-elves?"

"What do you mean by ’different’?" Luo’er asked, frowning.

"Don’t you feel that you, as a half-elf, are a bit too domineering?" Cheng Ziang tilted his head then asked.

Luo’er paused for a moment, then he suddenly came to his senses. Cheng Ziang was right. In Holy Heart City, or rather, in the entire northern continent, the plight of half-elves was quite unfortunate, so they definitely did not have the kind of confident demeanor that Luo’er had. If Luo’er insisted on playing the role of a servant, then he would undoubtedly be recognized by those experienced nobles.

"If you want to carry out a mission, then you should learn the most basic acting!" Cheng Ziang said coldly.

Cheng Ziang was right. Although they advocated equality, in fact, in this Otherworld, even within their own team, everyone’s identities were different. Cheng Ziang was an Aud half-blood, so he should naturally become the most domineering in the team. And Luo’er as a Wood Elf half-blood would undoubtedly be the most disadvantaged.

This kind of inequality does not disappear just because they do not admit it. If they do not take it seriously and utilize it, they may easily fail in the upcoming missions.

Cheng Ziang’s words awoke Luo’er and gave him an enlightened feeling. Just as he said, if it’s just carrying out the mission, there’s no inequality. But once it involves acting, they must show the class distinction that Otherworld’s continent should have.

"Isn’t it good to be a dominant Luo’er? Do people in Otherworld discriminate against him, and you guys don’t respect him either?" Tangmo, who did not understand their conversation, couldn’t help but stand up for Luo’er.

"No, Moumou, Ziang is right." Luo’er stopped her and then said, "If I am too dominant, I will definitely be recognized when infiltrating. That is to say, now I need to learn to be weak, at least before the task is completed, I must show a status that matches my identity."

"Remember your status now, you are Moumou’s bought servant, you are..." Cheng Ziang paused, then continued, "You have been sold as a slave since you were a child, always doing the vilest tasks at the bottom, you don’t even have the courage to meet your master’s gaze!"

"I got it!" Luo’er nodded with a frown.

"Luo’er!" Tangmo pulled him a bit, with a complaining look glared at Cheng Ziang.

Luo’er digested it for a moment, then closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his eyes were filled with submission and fear. He tried to look at Tangmo, but before his gaze reached hers, he couldn’t help but tremble all over and lowered his head in terror.

"Luo’er..." Tangmo looked at him with concern.

"Alright, keep it up!" Cheng Ziang stroked his chin, nodded in satisfaction.

"Um," Luo’er also smiled and nodded, looking at Tangmo again, his eyes again full of gentleness and smiles.

"Whoo!" Tangmo took a deep breath of relief.

The next day, when the group found Kali, she still looked confused.

"Moumou, you want to be my cousin and then, go to the Magic Academy?" Kali pointed at herself and Tangmo, and asked with wide eyes.

"Um, Moumou always wanted to learn magic, but unfortunately, the Magic Academy tends only to admit nobles, so we can only resort to this last measure."

"Are you going too?" Kali pointed at Luo’er and asked.

"Um," Luo’er nodded, looking tenderly at Tangmo, "If she goes in alone, I can’t rest assured, so I plan to pretend to be her servant and go in."

Since it is a noble academy, the students are basically all nobles, so the Sacred Heart Magic Academy allows students to bring their own servants to school. Of course, when the students start studying, the servants must work in support, in exchange for food and a place to sleep.

"Can you do it?" Luo’er asked, looking at her.

"I should be fine, I am just a newly promoted noble..." Kali scratched her head, not hesitating at all to agree to their request.

"Thank you!" Luo’er happily exchanged glance with Tangmo.

"No problem," Luo’er said, "As long as you are a noble, you are qualified to enter the Magic Academy."

"Then, Moumou is my cousin, in that case, you can’t call her by the name of a Southerner anymore, you will be regarded as a heretic, then you should call, you should call..." Kali thought with her head down, suddenly brightened, then said, "Just call Audrey. How about that!"

"Mm, thank you, my lady!" Tangmo quickly got into character, slightly nodding her head and saying tranquilly.

"Great," Kali clapped her palms together with a delighted smile on her face, "Now, I have another mage younger sister!"

Luo’er and Tangmo looked at each other and smiled, their image of Kali once again changed.

With Kali’s consent, the team started to prepare for the mission. They reported the mission to the headquarters and obtained approval. With the allocated activity funds, they started preparing the necessary clothing.

Kali is a newly promoted noble, so her cousin Audrey naturally cannot have better circumstances. They bought a simple looking dress from the market. Once Tangmo put it on, she instantly transformed into Audrey, a newly promoted noble with financial difficulties.

Luo’er wore the simplest, cheapest servant clothing. His hair was messy, with painted-on bruises at the corner of his mouth. His gaze was elusive, his body trembling from time to time. He was deeply scared and self-effacing towards everything around him.

Chi Cheng Ziang was Audrey’s housekeeper. He wore an old but tidy housekeeper’s suit. Looked very obstinate and conservative, especially attentive to discussions on money.

The remaining two, Hu Daoke and Baiyue, were just the members of the sniper team. While Luo’er and the others were infiltrating the academy, they were out in the city conducting reconnaissance.
