In the next few days, Chris had nothing to do, so he took Manda to eat and drink in Solo City, and almost visited the entire city.
Three days later, he received an invitation to the second prince's banquet, which was sent by Byron.
Byron said: "The second prince asked me to tell you that you must come here tonight."
"Don't worry." Chris took the invitation and looked over it several times.
The cover is made of red paper, which feels very delicate. On the front is a black and gray eagle with spread wings, symbolizing the totem of the kingdom.
Opening the cover, it read: "Baron Chris, I sincerely invite you to come to the inner city of Solo City for a night banquet at 7pm on May 30th, seat number 007. Inviter: Prince Kiel."
"I'm going back first. Remember to prepare some clothes."
"Go slowly, I won't send you off."
After Byron left, Chris took Manda and picked out a decent black tuxedo for himself. Because he was pressed for time and had no time to make it custom-made, he spent a little more money and bought it ready-made.
······
As night falls, Solo City is still noisy.
The three viscounts walked together toward the inner city. At this time, they saw Chris and followed them.
Yunado couldn't help but ask: "What are you going to do?"
"Attending the party." Chris replied.
"How long have you been in Solo City and you've already made friends?"
Chris said: "The second prince invited me."
The three viscounts asked in unison: "The second prince also invited you?"
"Yes." Chris raised the invitation in his hand.
The three of them were surprised. In the past, the second prince would hold a banquet before the opening order, also known as a pre-war mobilization rally.
But because there are too many nobles coming here, only those who are viscount and above are eligible to participate.
They all also heard about Chris's thirty-seven consecutive victories in the martial arts arena. Perhaps it was because the second prince loved Cai so much that he took him along to express his respect for capable people.
Yunado reminded: "When the banquet begins, you must sit next to me and don't run around. The nobles attending the banquet tonight all have extremely deep backgrounds, and many of them we cannot afford to offend."
Chris asked doubtfully: "But, isn't there a seat number on the invitation?"
"You can find someone else to change. We are all in the back anyway." Yunado said.
"No, I'm at table seven."
Hearing this, the three viscounts paused in their steps, "No. 7?"
Doesn’t that mean that Chris’s position is not too far away from the second prince?
"It's your first time to participate in a pre-war mobilization meeting, and the second prince arranged such a front position for you?" Yunado grabbed the invitation from Chris and unfolded it. The other two viscounts also put their heads together.
come over.
The name is Chris, and it is indeed No. 7, which proves that the invitation was sent correctly.
The three viscounts looked at each other and could see the horror in each other's eyes.
"What's the seat number?" Chris asked.
Yunado took a deep breath and said: "The higher the position, the more respected the status is, or the more important the second prince is."
"What are the seat numbers for you three?"
"one thousand and One."
"One thousand and six."
"One thousand and twelve."
Chris touched his forehead, he didn't expect that he could still value him so much after he rejected the second prince's solicitation.
Unknowingly, the four of them arrived in the inner city.
In front of the palace in the center of the city, hundreds of long white tables were lined up, and countless servants brought fine steaks, wine, and various delicacies to the tables.
Because there were so many people attending, the banquet was held outdoors.
At this moment, many nobles have come here, and acquaintances hang out together, chatting and laughing.
Chris also met an acquaintance of his own.
"Kenzat, why are you here?"
"The second prince purchased a lot of goods from the princess's chamber of commerce, and I'm here to deliver them." Kenzat showed the same surprised expression, "Chris, you're here too?"
"That's it." Chris said, "The second prince invited me here."
Kenzat said teasingly: "I have heard about what you did two days ago. You are so domineering. You single-handedly suppressed all the young talents in the city."
"It's just good luck." Chris scratched his head awkwardly.
Thirty-seven consecutive victories, although it sounds very pretentious, but it has offended many people, especially his insulting and provoking methods.
The main reason is that earning reputation points is so cool and a bit high.
You can get 2,500 points in two to three hours, faster than ever before.
"So you are Chris." At this time, a nobleman came over holding a wine glass.
"It's you." Chris' eyes lit up.
The person who came was none other than the sixth-level knight who had fought against the evil dragon together.
Kenzart asked in surprise: "Count Ford, do you know him?"
Ford nodded and said, "Yes, we met once."
"Hello, Earl." Chris gave a noble salute.
"Not bad, not bad. I knew at that time that you must be extraordinary. I didn't expect that you would be an eye-opener after not seeing you for only a few months." Ford said approvingly.
"My lord, the earl, is so complimentary."
"How could it be?" Ford said, "Two months ago you were only a level one, and now you are a level three magic warrior."
Kenzat was surprised and said: "It took two months to upgrade from the first level magic warrior to the third level? How is this possible!"
"This speed of improvement is almost as fast as the Holy Knight Caesar crowned a thousand years ago."
······
Yuna and the other three looked at Chris frequently.
They have attended many banquets, but they still can only talk to the viscount who is of similar status to themselves.
On the other hand, Chris was able to chat and laugh with the Earl, the sixth-level knight, for the first time he came here.
It's really annoying to compare people to each other.
Near seven o'clock in the evening, the second prince walked out of the palace surrounded by a group of royal knights.
All the nobles stopped talking and bowed: "See Your Highness."
"No gift." The second prince waved his hand and showed a warm smile.
The nobles all found their seats corresponding to their seat numbers.
At this time, many people noticed Chris on the 7th.
The people around him were all uncles in their fifties and sixties, so he, a young boy of sixteen or seventeen, seemed a little out of place.
"This kid, shouldn't he be looking for a seat randomly?"
"What is his identity? His position is higher than that of many earls."
Isn't that right? Second Prince's position is No. 1, and Uncle Chen is No. 2.
Although Kenzat does not have a title, he is also a sixth-level knight and the princess's personal guard. He has a respected status and sits in the third position.
