Perhaps, even if they had enough money to pay, they wouldn't dare to go against an Archmage's Family.
Nonetheless, they still felt frustrated since this event should only be for lower nobles and other small or medium-sized organizations. It was an unwritten rule that high-ranking nobles shouldn't participate!

"Why would House Farrell want that young slave?"
"Did you see his eyes? That boy's not right—"
"The Archmage hasn't left his tower in decades. What does he—"

The heavy doors shut behind them, cutting off the speculations made by the nobles.

Outside the Obsidian Tower, the butler's carriage was unmarked.
