**Marius**

**"Sir Marius, we have squires for tasks like this. You and the others should head over to the mess hall."** Andres recommended to the three busy-bees.

Marius turned around, seeing the strange old man standing at the door.  Andres was not strange like that Dark Mage.  He was strange like a teenager trapped in the body of an elderly man, except that teenager has not accepted the fact that he is old.  God knows what type of person he was back when he was actually young.  He probably has some bastard children hidden away somewhere.

After hearing what Andres’ voice, Marius looked toward his two helpers.  The expressions on their faces seemed as if they were begging him to say yes to Andres’ offer.  Was doing inventory really that bad?

“Fine.  Sir Jerod.  Sir Rylan.  You are now dismissed and may venture over to the mess hall.  I, however, shall remain here until the squires have arrived so that I can show them what we have done so far and what needs to be done.  There is no need for them to sort through the materials that we have already checked.”

Marius made a gesture towards the door where Andres was standing, signaling that Jerod and Rylan were free to go.
