The evening reception was a bit boring. Viscount Emmett's manor was decorated with lights and lights, and an open-air dance was held next to the fountain in the center of the courtyard.
Karl felt that Surdak, a young knight, should often attend such noble dances so that he could make some young friends in the city of Helensa.
"My friend, when you become a knight, it means that your life circle has fundamentally changed. I don't mean to give up your previous friends, but you also need to make new friends. Others
Knights, mages, and nobles, you have to slowly adapt and blend in, and then you will find that your life will change dramatically."
Carr held a glass of grape juice with a faint wine flavor, leaned against a lamppost and said.
Surdak looked at the Warcraft leather armor on his body with some embarrassment, and sighed softly. Many guests wearing noble attires around him looked at him in surprise. This feeling was really bad, and he felt that he
Like a duck standing in a henhouse, it is so different and out of place in its surroundings.
Before coming here, Karl only said that he would take him to a place to drink, but he did not mention attending such a drinking party at all.
In fact, it was useless even to lift it, since I didn't even have a knight's uniform.
Karl next to him seemed indifferent. When a waiter holding a tray passed by, he drank up the wine-flavored grape juice in one gulp, put the empty wine glass back on the tray, picked up two glasses of golden cider, and handed one to Su.
Erdak, winked at Surdak and said: "Enjoy this night!"
In Suldak's eyes, wine without ale would be completely soulless.
Golden cider, wine, rum and wine-flavored juices cannot be paired with barbecue, and the nameless dishes on the table are not very appetizing. Those dishes look gorgeous and exquisite, but each portion
Just a shallow sip.
He picked up a piece of shell and sucked the slightly sweet shell meat into his mouth. It was completely raw.
It’s hard to imagine how in an inland mountain town like Hilanza, seafood like this, which dies immediately after leaving the sea, is kept fresh. There was a complete grilled limestone iguana on another tray. Suldak thought of eating it in Paglos
The sight of catching limestone iguanas in the mountains makes me lose my appetite at all.
A group of young ladies in gorgeous evening gowns, eager to squeeze out the rabbits on their chests, shuttled through the crowd like butterflies. They would not sit there reservedly, waiting for invitations from the gentlemen. They would be like swimming fish.
The tiger shark in the fish is looking for its own thing.
Of course, some ladies also noticed Karl and Suldak. They seemed to be very familiar with Karl. When they ran over to greet Karl with wine glasses, their eyes always glanced at Suldak, with a kind of scrutiny in their eyes.
the taste of.
It's not that Suldak is so reserved and indifferent to the looks of these young ladies, but that he doesn't know how to dance at all, so he can only stand aside and watch with a glass of wine in his hand, and he doesn't know anyone else.
Karl saw that Suldak had no interest in dancing, so he whispered a few words to the dance partner next to him. The young lady had a sweet smile on her face, and walked away for a short while before leading a dancer.
She was a tall young lady with long chestnut hair, wearing a light blue dress, and a slender waist. When Surdak looked towards her, she was also looking at Surdak curiously.
"I think we should find a place to sit down and chat," Karl suggested, holding the young lady's slender waist.
The tall girl stared at Suldak very boldly, then stood next to him and glanced at his arm. Her amber eyes clearly said Knight, please raise your arm so that I can hold you.
Seeing Suldak's confused look, the tall girl pursed her lips and smiled, revealing her white teeth.
Suldak did not extend his hand, but the tall girl looked at him stubbornly.
Just when the scene was a little awkward, a fair-skinned young nobleman walked next to him. After seeing Karl, he said with surprise: "Hey, Karl, why do you have time to attend Viscount Emmett's ball?"
Karl quickly introduced him to Surdak. This young nobleman who looked like a bard was called Llewellyn. He was a baron, and his family was also a traditional nobleman in the city of Helensa.
He had a kind face. Although he was a baron, he had no airs in front of Suldak. He took a glass of wine and asked Karl: "I heard that you were recently troubled by the gang of robbers outside the city.
I thought you would catch those robbers outside the city at this time."
While speaking, Llewellyn secretly glanced at the tall girl next to Suldak, but the tall girl simply ignored him.
Karl smiled awkwardly: "I came back and was scolded. It's better for one person to take the blame for this kind of thing than for a group of people to be scolded!"
When Baron Llewellyn heard what Karl said, his attention was immediately attracted to this matter. He leaned into Karl's ear and whispered: "I heard that the gang of robbers just ransacked Walvorson Manor a week ago."
Baron Llewellyn also brought a female companion with him. The lady seemed to be slightly hostile to the tall girl next to Suldak. However, when the two looked at each other, they both smiled gracefully, hiding the hostility in their eyes.
Very good. As if provoking, the tall girl raised her fair chin to Baron Llewellyn's female companion, and suddenly stretched out her hand to hold Suldak's arm.
Suldak felt Baron Llewellyn's left eye twitch slightly, and then he smiled nonchalantly.
A few people sat down at an empty table by the swimming pool, and the tall girl sat next to Suldak. Baron Llewellyn pretended to be cordial to Karl and said, "Is it because of this that the consul let him go?"
When you return to the city to report on your work, if you need anything, be sure to tell us. If we can help, we will not delay it. Jonah and Brooke also mentioned you today."
After speaking, Baron Llewellyn glanced at the tall girl next to Suldak again, but the more he looked like this, the more deliberately the tall girl moved closer to Surdak.
At this time, Suldak finally figured out that there was an ambiguous relationship between Baron Llewellyn and the tall girl. However, at this dance, Baron Llewellyn brought another female companion, so
The two of them seemed to be fighting like lovers, but they were caught in the middle. I really knew that something like this would happen, so I would have stayed in the hotel tonight no matter what.
Karl also secretly gave Suldak an apologetic look.
The young lady who brought the tall girl was also sitting next to Karl with some embarrassment. Karl could only bite the bullet and said: "That gang of robbers is very vigilant. Once they succeed, they will flee immediately. Now all the people are gone."
