The servant led Gervais all the way, and soon arrived in front of the magnificent palace that Gervais and others saw when they first entered the palace.

"Sir, please come in!"

Soon, the matter of guiding the way was handed over to several maids waiting at the gate, and they followed the maid Gervais and others into one of the most important buildings of the palace.

Needless to say, the luxury of this marble palace is several times more exquisite than the manor where Gervais and the others were just now.

The space inside the palace is also very wide. The height and width of the corridor alone are more than three meters, and even five knights can pass through it if they are side by side.

Along the corridor full of relief murals, the maid finally brought Gervais and his party to a large door.

It was now open, and looking in from the outside, there were already many guests inside.

These guests were gorgeously dressed and behaved elegantly, and all of them were top nobles in the Principality of Alban.

The level of this banquet is several times higher than those held by the earl family.

When Gervais and others arrived at the gate, the guests inside also turned their attention to them. The protagonists of Gervais and others' banquet tonight naturally became the focus of the audience.

And except for Gervais, the other nine aristocratic young people are basically the descendants of the great nobles of the Duchy of Alban. Their parents and elders are probably among them. Naturally, they are very happy that their sons can attract everyone's attention, so they are all watching with smiles.

Hold them.

Just like that, under the attention of everyone, Gervais and his party walked into the banquet hall with their heads held high.

As if the time had been calculated, when Gervais and others walked into the banquet hall, the high-pitched shouts of the attendants came from behind.

"His Majesty the King has arrived!"

"His Majesty the King has arrived!"

Upon hearing this shout, everyone in the hall quickly stood on both sides, leaving a wide aisle in the middle. Gervais did the same, walking to the front of the crowd and staring at the door of the hall.

Soon, the king's figure appeared in everyone's eyes.

This is the first time Gervais has seen King Hayden up close.

Looking at it from a close distance, King Hayden's body is stronger than expected, and he is also a burly man. Although he is over sixty years old, he looks like he is only in his forties with the Golden Peak Knight.

Worth the time.

King Hayden wore a purple silk dress, with a black and white exquisite cape made of unknown animal fur on the back, which was extremely gorgeous.

In addition, the crown on King Hayden's head is inlaid with various large and small gems, which shine brightly under the light.

"I'm afraid I can't buy this outfit without hundreds or thousands of gold coins! No wonder they say that the man who becomes a king is the most domineering! If I am equipped with such equipment, I can also become the most handsome boy!"

King Hayden walked in a calm and steady manner, with a faint smile on his face.

Next to him were a group of family members, and a beautiful woman also wore a small crown the size of a fist on her right.

Gervais guessed that this should be King Hayden's wife, the Queen of the Duchy of Alban.

After the two, there are two men and three women, undoubtedly the prince and princess of the Duchy of Alban.

"I have met His Majesty the King! I have met Her Majesty the Queen!"

"I've met His Majesty the King! I've talked about His Majesty the Queen!"

When the king passed by each noble, everyone bowed their heads and saluted respectfully.

When the king and his family walked to the main seat in the banquet hall, all the nobles stood up and looked in the direction of the king again.

"Today's dinner is prepared for the ten warriors who stand out today. Therefore, I specially allow my warriors to have dinner with me and the queen at the same table."

Tonight's banquet is mainly a dinner party, so several huge long tables have been specially placed in this splendid hall.

Each long table is more than ten meters long and can easily seat a dozen people.

The king, queen and their heirs sat at the main table of the banquet, while other nobles could only sit on the long tables around them.

Being able to sit at the main table and have dinner with King Hayden is a great honor for Gervais and others.

As a rule, the guests at the king's long table are at least six earls, otherwise basically no one is qualified to dine at the same table with him.

But now Gervais and others can have dinner with King Hayden at the same table without even having a title.

After the king finished speaking, several maids quickly invited Gervais and others to sit down.

At this time, King Hayden and Queen were sitting at the head of the long table, and their children were sitting on the left side of the queen.

Gervais and others were arranged on the side of King Hayden, that is, on the right side of King Hayden.

As the first place winner in the competition, Gervais was directly placed in the first place.

One meter away to his left was King Hayden, and directly opposite was the eldest prince of the Principality of Alban.

When Gervais sat down, everyone present cast envious glances at Gervais, thinking that from now on this little baron's eldest son named Harry would surely flourish.

…

After King Hayden arrived, all the guests took their seats, and tonight's dinner officially began.

Various delicacies were placed in gold and silver vessels and delivered to Gervais and others.

When Gervais tasted it, he discovered that all the meat was monster meat, and even the fruits and vegetables served were actually magical fruits and vegetables.

"No wonder the number is so small. I thought the king was too stingy!"

Gervais was a little confused when he saw a large exquisite dinner plate containing only a solitary piece of fruit, but now he finally understood.

What follows is a burst of feasting.

Halfway through the dinner, King Hayden waved to the attendants on the side, and then spoke to Gervais and the others in a peaceful tone.

"The bravery you all showed today makes me very happy, so in addition to the promised rewards, I now invite you to taste the golden wine I treasure."

Wow!

In an instant, all the guests in the hall turned their heads and looked this way, all focusing on the silver wine bottle in the hand of the attendant.

Several noble heirs beside Gervais also showed excited expressions and looked directly at the attendant.

Only Gervais was a little confused. What was going on? Has his wine been sold to the Principality of Alban?

Gervais knew that the first batch of golden wine was hard to find in the Principality of Jean, and he did not expect to see it in the royal city of the Principality of Alban.

"Do you know where this golden wine is produced?"

When the attendant began to pour the purple-red wine liquid in front of the young people, several young people could not help but swallow their saliva when they smelled the aroma of the wine.

King Hayden was very happy to see this, so he asked.

"Your Majesty, I know this is wine brewed by the Jones family of the Principality of Jean. I heard it is the only fine wine besides beer, and it tastes a thousand times better than beer!"

A young man obviously knew something about this golden wine, and he immediately stood up and respectfully answered King Hayden.

"That's right! However, although this golden wine comes from the Jones family of the Principality of Jean, it is not brewed by the Jones family, but by the husband of the Jones family named Earl Alice."

King Hayden naturally knew more information than these noble heirs, so he smiled and told more detailed sources about the wine.

"I heard that this wine is very rare even in the Principality of Jean! It's hard to find a bottle. You can't even buy it for five gold coins, and I only have ten bottles in my palace!"

Wow!

Hearing the king's words, the noble guests below were once again in an uproar.

Those who can come to the king's banquet are naturally the top nobles of the Principality of Alban. Although they have heard a few words about this golden wine before, they know very little about it.

Especially the news that even five gold coins could not buy a pot was something they could not imagine.

They had only heard before that this golden wine was like nectar and jade liquid, and seemed to be extremely delicious.

Apart from King Hayden, there were probably only a few earls present who had tasted this golden wine.

Several earls also tasted it at the last banquet hosted by the king, which is why these nobles had such a big reaction to the king bringing out wine to reward Gervais and others.

"The reason why I am telling you about this golden wine now is to let you know the value of this golden wine!"

"In the team that invaded the south of the Principality of Jean this time, the husband of the earl who brewed golden wine was also in the team this time!"

"His name is Gervais Gale!"

"So, if in this war, as long as you defeat the army of the Principality of Zeon and capture this Gervais, then such delicious wine will belong to you in the future!"

"I guarantee here that whoever captures Gervais, all the benefits he gains will belong to him!"

At this moment, King Hayden revealed his true purpose.

In fact, this is also an incentive to change the direction, whether it is these newly selected warriors or other nobles.

As long as there are enough benefits, they will exert 100% of their power, and this wine can also be used as a booster to stimulate their motivation.

From now on, it can be seen from the expressions of everyone present that King Hayden's plan was successful!

Only Gervais felt bad after hearing King Hayden's words.

He was a little speechless!
Chapter completed!
