"The building should be here, right?"
Merlin stopped in front of a secluded building behind the academy.
No students or professors passed by. The courtyard was beautiful, filled with plants carved into lions and other animals.
At the center was a ten-by-ten-meter flower bed. The atmosphere felt refreshing and calming.
If not for the directions given earlier by the gardener, he would never have known such a place existed behind the academy.
"Are you Young Master Merlin Clay?"
A woman's voice came from behind him. Merlin turned and saw a woman dressed as a maid.
Merlin nodded slightly. "Yes, I am Merlin Clay. Are you the maid sent by Margaret?"
The woman bowed her head and replied respectfully, "That's right, young master. Please follow me inside to meet the young lady. She has been waiting for you."
Merlin did not refuse. Guided by the maid, he stepped inside and finally saw the interior of the building.
