Amidst the hustle and bustle, Thales stared expressionlessly at the dagger in his hand, silently walking backwards, letting countless guard members pass by him.

The prince's figure was dotted among the stern armors rushing away, looking lonely and isolated.

Dazzling and prominent.

The next second, as if the ban was lifted, the crowd of guests who had been silent for a long time began to stir.

Sounds surged up, cheers, discussions, applause, and whispers continued.

"Oh my god, I swear, this party is the coolest thing that's happened to me this year..."

"As expected of a shining star, right? It reminds me of forty years ago...ahem..."

"No, let me tell you, when the North Star was still in the north...that was called a man who would kill the king when he saw the king, and kill the grand duke when he saw him...We in Elk City always miss him!"

"Remember, if anyone asks about what happened at today's scene in the future, they will not say much and will only say that the royal guards controlled the scene..."

"His gesture is so brave, ah, my dear Xianni, let me tell you quietly, I really want to be pressed against the wall and kissed by His Highness... ah, so are you? Humph, shameless! Bitch!"

"I'm telling you, immediately buy shares in the glass merchants' guild when you get back, especially the production of wine sets..."

"No, listen to me. Before Fuxing Palace makes any response, you are not allowed to come to Mindis Hall again, and you are not allowed to comment on today's events..."

"Before that bitch Enosa takes action, we need to find out the details of His Highness the Duke's life in the north, especially what kind of girl he likes..."

"Sure enough, I still can't get rid of the Yankee style. Let me tell you, be careful in the future..."

"Mama, I also want to study abroad in Exeter...ah? Otherwise, I can just be a hostage!"

"Did you remember it? Yes, in this order: quail eggs, roast goose, lettuce, especially lettuce..."

"Tell your father to settle all the loan sharks placed in your family...losses? Are you still thinking about losses? Doyle is a lesson learned from the past!"

"Did you hear that? Did you hear that, 'I had the guts to stand in front of him and look him in the eyes'?"

"No, I can't even mention it after I get back, especially the bet..."

It was as if the public's temporarily lost enthusiasm finally returned after the situation calmed down.

"Fortunately, fortunately, my sunset...that damn villain, I swear, I swear..." Baron Doyle hugged his son and wife and cried wildly, which made D.D very embarrassed.

Many people began to look at the Star Prince with different eyes again, who was among the many guards, with his back to the hall.

But Thales just remained silent.

He raised his head slightly and looked at the empty highest seat after the king left.

It's like living in your own world.

Not to be disturbed, not to be disturbed.

"Okay, the flag wing will take over from here...and be taken directly to the secret department," Vogel ordered the men escorting Anke, and then glanced at Thales, who was in a state of confusion, with a complicated expression:

"Obviously, a lot of people have to work overtime tonight."

Soon, under various eyes, Anke was escorted away by the guards who were waiting for him. Although he did not struggle, the length of the escort team was still comparable to that of a guard of honor.

Thales listened silently to the sound of Anke being taken away, without looking at him.

On the other side, the Doyle family was in dire straits and wept with joy.

Thales didn't respond.

His chest seemed to be pressed against a huge boulder, making it difficult for him to react.

Marius motioned for Glover to put on the duke's cloak, but Thales reached out to stop him.

As the backbone of the royalists, Earl Godwin coughed, stepped forward, and expressed condolences to Thales like an elder:

"Your Highness, thank you for your hard work tonight..."

"If you don't mind, I think the banquet will end here..."

But Thales suddenly spoke:

"Sorry, everyone!"

Duke Xinghu's sudden loud voice interrupted people's buzzing discussion.

Thales turned around.

His expression was so cold that everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

Looking at the prince's expression, Mallos frowned slightly.

Thales knew that more than one person had told him: Smile is the best armor.

But the Northlanders taught him:

Armor alone is not enough for combat.

The prince pressed down the bewildered Earl Godwin and walked towards the crowd.

"I know, maybe today, my opening remarks were too gentle."

Thales' eyes were colder than ever before:

"Easily misunderstood."

The banquet hall fell completely silent.

Thales lowered his voice, but against the backdrop of silence, his words were extremely clear:

"But for those who don't know me, or don't like me, or even don't want to see me..."

Thales said with a sullen face:

"I don't mind if I repeat my welcome speech."

He walked gently, his sharp eyes passing over each guest.

It makes people want to give up.

"Gentlemen!"

Thales suddenly raised his voice, biting out from between his teeth the strength and intimidation he had once been accustomed to but had deliberately forgotten:

"I am Thales!"

He looked around the crowd with sullen eyes.

"A name that you can't find even if you look through the Canxing family's seven-hundred-year-old genealogy!"

The guests murmured again, but they quickly disappeared under Thales' eyes.

Thales lowered his head and stroked the dagger in his hand, feeling its precious material and good feel, and said in a deep voice:

"So, you may not know..."

"The past six years."

"I am neither the Prince of Stars nor the Duke of Star Lake."

The guests looked at each other.

Thales played with the dagger and did not raise his head, but every word he spoke was deep and deep, causing the guests to subconsciously prick up their ears:

"I saw with my own eyes the feudal lords fighting each other and the death of Nun."

"I have experienced dragons descending from the sky and disasters burning down cities."

"I witnessed the Bingfeng Incident, and Charman praised me."

Thales' pupils focused and he raised his head suddenly:

"The Black Sand Leader hates me as a mortal enemy, and Longxiao City regards me as a disaster star!"

His sudden cold voice shocked many listeners.

Thales strode forward with a determined gaze, piercing everyone who looked at him.

As he approached, the crowd subconsciously backed away.

"And all over Exeter, tens of thousands of creatures call me -"

While still speaking, Thales suddenly revealed his dagger and plunged it into a long table in front of him!

Boom!

Amidst the dull thumping of his heart, Thales roared angrily:

"Polaris!"

With the help of the Sin of the Prison River, his voice echoed in the banquet hall, causing the lights to flicker and the figures to flicker.

The whole hall was silent.

Hundreds of people, including many high-status figures, did not dare to speak out loud at this time.

Thales stared at the sword blade on the table, breathing unsteadily.

One second.

Two seconds.
