All the rooms in the entire manor were warm as spring, which greatly surprised the arriving envoy and the knights.
The horses were taken to the stables behind, and soon people working in the manor helped them groom and provide them with water and feed.
The knights were also sent to other rooms to tidy themselves up.
They had all brought their luggage with them, and with the hot water provided by the servants, they cleaned themselves.
Originally, they had many complaints about their journey to the chaotic lands, but once they actually arrived, they had no more complaints.
To be able to live in such a warm place during winter, they could tolerate the simplicity of the rooms.
After they had tidied themselves up, Maurice came out to entertain the envoy.
The envoy was not very clear about who the person in front of him was. Since he came out to entertain him, his status in the manor must not be low.
A servant introduced Maurice's identity to the envoy, not mentioning Maurice's Black Dragon status, but only stating that he was their lord's fiancé.
Upon hearing this introduction, the envoy's heart trembled, and he also noticed the danger of the man in front of him.
So, it was relying on this man that the former Saintess was able to pacify the chaotic lands.
People are always inclined to look down on women and are influenced by their preconceived notions.
The envoy was no longer in a hurry to meet Angelina. Maurice was now his main target.
Egbert did not rest. After washing up, he asked a servant to take him to see his sister.
"You've grown up," Egbert said, looking at his sister whom he hadn't seen in a long time.
"Brother, we haven't seen each other for four years. Was your journey hard?" Lin Yan asked Egbert to sit down and then had a servant bring him hot soup.
She should have offered hot cocoa, but her brother was an exception to Westerners; he didn't like sweets much.
Even when he was sick and taking medicine all the time, he didn't like sweets much.
"The journey was fine. Are you alright here?" He gestured in the direction of the envoy downstairs.
"It's fine. Maurice is entertaining him there. I think he's more interested in meeting Maurice than meeting me," Lin Yan knew what the envoy was thinking about this matter.
"You don't care?"
"There's nothing to care about. It's a good thing for me that he thinks this way. By the way, brother, how is your health?" Lin Yan was more concerned about her brother's health.
"I'm fine now. The Elven Spring Water you sent was very effective," Egbert was happy about his sister's concern for him.
"Let me check it for you."
"Alright, you check," Egbert stood up, spread his hands, and allowed her to examine him.
Holy light enveloped Egbert's body, and he felt a warmth spread through him, dispelling all the fatigue from his journey.
After a long while, the holy light disappeared. Lin Yan was relieved. Although the poison had caused some damage to Egbert's body, it was not irreparable.
She calculated the medicines she could use for him and then thought about what else from other races could be used.
"Angelina," Egbert called out to her softly, bringing her attention back.
"Is there anything wrong with my body?"
"No, you're just still a bit weak. I'm planning to find some more medicine for you."
"Angelina, are you really going to be with that dragon?" Egbert pondered for a moment and then asked.
Allowing that dragon to entertain an envoy from the empire already indicated his status.
