Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree

Chapter 286: Chapter 273: There is Something Wrong with This Butler

After speaking, without waiting for other players to respond, Little Xian Miao spoke up herself,

“Do you all remember the human steward we caught during the Crocodile Mercenary Corps mission?”

“Is that steward also in this town?”

Li Mu was slightly taken aback.

Back then, it was he who asked the questions, so he remembered this cowardly steward quite well.

“That’s right, but… the way he looks now, I feel you might not recognize him anymore.”

Little Xian Miao said as she tossed a screenshot she had just taken while spying in the chat group.

It was an image of the skinny guard talking to Anders.

The guard’s face was flattering, while Anders looked displeased.

However, the expressions were secondary; what caught the players’ attention was Anders’ current appearance.

This old steward looked nothing like his once portly self. He was now as thin as a bag of bones, with a sallow complexion and dry hair, looking as if he had been on the run for months.

His clothes were also a far cry from the servant’s attire he once wore, now replaced with an ill-fitting villager’s winter coat.

“Wow, how did this guy get so thin? I remember when I first saw him at the Crocodile Mercenary Corps camp, he was as round as a ball.”

“It’s really him… almost didn’t recognize him.”

“What’s he doing in this town?”

Seeing the astonished expressions of the other players, Little Xian Miao chuckled and continued to send messages in the chat channel,

“I asked around. Apparently, he got lost outside for nearly two months before finally making his way back, which explains his current state. Well, the villagers said he arrived in town just a bit before we did.”

“Wha… Lost?”

“That’s hilarious!”

Li Mu raised an eyebrow slightly,

“Weren’t there a lot of other villagers traveling with him too?”
