The Genius Mage Chapter 115
Advertisement
After Audrey's decision to let Morris join the team was made known, not only was Kate very worried, even Hera, who had always trusted her, was a little worried.
"Audrey, if I had to say it, your decision was indeed a little impulsive," Hera said.
Kate frowned slightly. "It's best if we know the truth about the teammates we need to protect our safety. If it were him, I would actually be very afraid that he would choose to betray us for money."
What she said made sense. Jill nodded in agreement.
"That's right. If we don't even know his background, what if he wants to harm us?"
Audrey had her own thoughts.
"If I remember correctly, with our team's current strength, it shouldn't be a problem for us to meet the enemy head-on." Audrey knocked on the table. "But have you ever considered what if the enemy attacks us?"
This sentence successfully silenced the three of them.
That was true. They knew how bloody the trials of the Templars Knights were. There were countless people who would launch sneak attacks.
And the most outrageous thing was that even if someone used improper means to obtain a ranking, no one would come out to punish them.
That was because the rules of the trials were like this. As long as they were selected, it did not matter if they were right or wrong.
Kate's hands tightened slightly. "Then what do you mean?"
Audrey calmly gave them an analysis. "Actually, I've thought about it for a long time. With our current combat strength, it's very difficult for us to get high marks, so we can only win with speed.
"Just now at the market, Morris stole my wallet. When he held my wallet for a period of time, even I did not sense his aura. It was only because my intuition told me that I had lost something that I discovered him."

Jill covered her mouth. "What? Even you didn't notice him?"
It had to be known that Audrey's presence was indisputable. If even she did not notice...
Then, the other party's attainments in this area must be unfathomable.
Audrey nodded. "It's because of this that I wanted to recruit him. That way, whether we take the initiative to attack or prevent a sneak attack, we'll have a layer of security."
After hearing what she said, Jill also understood what she meant. She nodded in agreement.
Kate and Hera naturally did not have any complaints.
However, after settling one, another new problem appeared in front of them.
Trouble had come knocking on their door.
It was as though they had heard the rumor that Audrey had brought the person here. A few of them had directly come here and threatened to meet Morris. The reason was very simple. Morris had stolen something from them and had not returned it.
"Get Morris to come out! He stole my gold ring the last time. That's my heirloom. get him to pay for it!"
"He stole my wallet. There are several silver coins in it. That's our family's food money."
"And my jewelry..."
One of the women even cried out loud and knelt on the ground weakly.
Audrey could not bear seeing her actions and quickly helped her up.
"Madam, please calm down. We can slowly resolve everything."
Another man sneered. "Slowly resolve everything? Now we want him to compensate us! If he can't come up with the money, then you can compensate us!"
Audrey's eyes turned blank.
She did not understand the logic behind these two sentences. Why did she have to pay the compensation?
"That's right. Since you're the one who took him in, then he's your man. If he can't come up with the money, then you'll have to compensate us for our losses."

The old woman cried, her tone sincere and certain.
Hera stood up and walked towards Audrey. She raised her hand and tugged at her sleeve. "Whoever stole your money, you'll have to find that person. What's the use of looking for Audrey?"
The man slammed the table. "We had already reported the case and were about to arrest him. It was you who brought him back. Now, they say that you'll be in charge of everything. What if we don't come looking for you? Don't tell me we can only blame our bad luck!"
He had a pained look on his face, as though he had experienced a great loss.
Hera sneered, "Why should we bear the losses that Morris has caused you? Since that's the case, why don't we call him out and let him handle it himself?"
"Forget it, let me handle it." Audrey raised her hand, wanting to take out the money from her bag.
When the old woman saw this action, her eyes immediately turned expectant.
At this moment, the door was suddenly opened and Morris walked out.
He had actually heard the commotion outside a long time ago, but he just wanted to see how Audrey would deal with it. He did not expect that she would really give them the money.
When they saw Morris come out, the few people who had been clamoring for compensation suddenly quieted down for some unknown reason.
"You just said that I stole your things, right?" Morris sneered.
The old woman seemed to be a little timid. She did not dare to speak, so she could only pull the man next to her.
The man mustered up his courage. "Yes, you stole them. We remember it clearly..."
Morris' face was as cold as ice. "Saying such things requires a corresponding price. There's no need to waste time here. Just follow me to verify this with the truth stone and see if I stole your things."
He clearly did not even know these people, but now they actually came to him to talk about such things?
Was it not obvious that they were here to scam him!
Audrey felt angry.
When they heard the words 'truth stone', they were instantly frightened.
It had to be known that the person who went there to test them had to be telling the truth. Otherwise, they would be punished by lightning strikes. How could their small bodies withstand such great power?
"Ah! We might have remembered wrongly. My ring must have been lost when I was doing farm work," the old woman hurriedly said.
"Mine too... why don't we go back today..."
In this way, several people quickly turned around, but a moment later disappeared in the sight of everyone.
