Faced with two angry men, Ebert took a deep breath and decided to try to solve the problem peacefully first.
"Please listen to my explanation, both of you," Ebert raised his hands to indicate that he had no ill intentions, "The lady may have recognized the wrong person. I am really not familiar with her. I just said a few words just now. If there is any offense, I apologize to you and leave now."
He spoke sincerely and modestly, hoping to settle the matter peacefully.
However, Venu and Kumar did not buy it at all. They believed that Ebert was playing dumb and deliberately despising them.
Stop pretending!" Venu snorted disdainfully, "Do you think we will believe your nonsense? What is the status of Miss Saraswati? How can people like you be so high-class?"
Kumar also echoed from the side: "That's right, if you know what's good for you, kneel down and apologize, and then get out of here! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"
They are arrogant and domineering, They didn't take Ebot seriously at all.
Saraswati remained silent, just standing aside, watching with a playful smile on her face, as if she was enjoying an interesting show.
Ebot secretly groaned in his heart. He could see that these two guys were simply bullying and unreasonable.
He was not a timid person, nor was he powerless to resist. The experience of escaping danger several times made him understand that the black metal statue had incredible mysterious power that could help him overcome difficulties.
But he didn't want to do it unless it was absolutely necessary. Use that power. Because he didn't know where that power came from and what consequences it would bring, and so far he couldn't control it at will.
Just when Ebert was in a dilemma, the door of the teahouse was pushed open.
A tall and mighty figure appeared at the door.
He was wearing a gorgeous golden robe, a long sword inlaid with gems on his waist, and long black hair tied up with a golden headband. His sword eyebrows and starry eyes were majestic without anger. His whole body exuded a powerful aura that made people dare not look directly at him.
"What's going on?" The man glanced at the people in the teahouse and asked in a deep voice.
"Aditya!" Saraswati's eyes lit up when she saw the man, but then she returned to her previous careless look.
"Aditya, you came at the right time. " Vinu pointed at Ebot and said indignantly, "This guy was rude to Miss Saraswati, and we were just about to teach him a lesson!"
"Oh?" Aditya raised his eyebrows and turned his gaze to Ebota, "Sir, I wonder what you did to make my friends so angry?"
Ebota noticed that although Aditya spoke calmly, there was a hint of scrutiny and warning in his eyes.
"Aditya, don't listen to their nonsense!" Before Ebota could speak, Saraswati said first, "I was just joking with this gentleman, and Vinu and Kumar misunderstood."
"Joke?" Aditya obviously didn't believe Saraswati's words. He turned to look at Vinu and Kumar, "Do you think so too? "
Vinu and Kumar looked at each other. Although they were unwilling, they did not dare to lie in front of Aditya.
"This..." Vinu hesitated, "We... We are also worried about the safety of Miss Saraswati..."
"Hmph!" Aditya snorted coldly, "You two are getting more and more outrageous! Why don't you apologize to this gentleman!"
Vinu and Kumar were stunned. They did not expect that Aditya would help this foreigner.
"Aditya, you..." Vinu wanted to explain something, but was glared back by Aditya with a sharp look.
"Why don't you apologize quickly!" Aditya emphasized his tone, with a hint of unquestionable majesty in his voice.
Vinu and Kumar did not dare to disobey, so they had to bow their heads to Ebot reluctantly.
"I'm sorry." They said in unison, their tone full of unwillingness and humiliation.
"Hmph! " Adiya snorted coldly, then turned to look at Ebot, and his tone softened a little, "Sir, my name is Adiya, I am Saraswati's brother. I apologize to you for my friend's rude behavior, and please don't take it to heart." Ebot smiled faintly and said: "It's okay, I didn't take it to heart." "That's good." Adiya nodded, then said to Saraswati, "Sarasswati, why don't you apologize to this gentleman!" Saraswati was a little reluctant, but under the majesty of her brother, she walked in front of Ebot and lowered her proud head. "I'm sorry." She whispered, with a hint of unwillingness and shame in her tone. "It's okay. "Ebert said lightly, then he ignored these people and turned to walk out of the teahouse.
Ebert walked out of the teahouse, still feeling a little uneasy.
Although he pretended to be calm on the surface, he knew in his heart that he had just walked through the gates of hell.
If Saraswati's brother hadn't appeared in time, he would have been beaten black and blue by those two guys.
"Agora, it's really not an easy place to live..." Ebert sighed in his heart. He originally thought that this was a world full of miracles and opportunities, but now it seems that this place is also full of dangers and challenges.
As he walked, he looked back, fearing that those people would suddenly catch up.
Until he walked a long way and made sure that those people didn't catch up, Ebert was relieved.
He found a secluded teahouse and walked in.
This teahouse is much smaller than the one just now. It was also much quieter.
There were only a few guests in the teahouse, all chatting in low voices, and no one noticed Ebot.
Ebot found a seat in a corner and sat down, ordered a pot of tea and some snacks.
While drinking tea, he thought about what he should do next.
The aroma of tea was curling, but it could not dispel the haze lingering in Ebot's heart.
He looked around, people came and went in the teahouse, and the noise was one after another, but it made him look more lonely. After coming to "Agora", he realized that he had nothing, like a lonely boat, drifting on the vast ocean, not knowing where to go.
"Fortunately, I still have some money..." Ebot touched the purse in his arms, which was given to him by Adia after he saved Adia. In addition, he also found some gold, silver and jewelry from the remains of the two magicians in the forest swamp. Otherwise, He even had trouble finding a foothold in this world.
"The only solution now is to go to Mohenjo-daro first..." Ebert thought secretly, "Maybe there, I can find clues about the black metal statue, or even find clues to return to 1943..."
He decided to go to Mohenjo-daro first, the legendary center of ancient Indian civilization, maybe there, he could find some clues related to the black metal statue, or even find his way home. As for learning magic, he could only make plans after arriving in Mohenjo-daro.
At present, the only thing he could rely on, besides the dagger given to him by Adiya, was the mysterious black metal statue. As for the jade pendant obtained from the swamp, he studied it for a long time, but could not find its use, so he could only regard it as an ordinary ornament for the time being.
"In this dangerous world, I must keep a low profile to survive..." Abbott secretly warned himself, "Everything will be discussed after arriving at Mohenjo-daro..."
He took a sip of tea, glanced at the bookshelf in the teahouse, and suddenly thought: "I wonder if there are any books on magic for beginners here? If I can learn some simple magic, maybe it can enhance my self-protection ability..."
