At the same time, Arthur's carriage had arrived in front of the city gate of Elsenburg. The carriage stopped there, and the two [ladies], accompanied by the valets, gracefully stepped out of the carriage and slowly entered the castle.
.
"Bedi, hold me steady, I might fall." Arthur muttered in a low voice. The high heels made it almost impossible for him to walk. He cursed in his mind, why can women in the world wear such terrible shoes? This is really
A shoe, not some kind of torture device?
Bedivere blushed, using her shoulders to support Arthur who was stumbling while walking, while looking at the stone castle illuminated by gorgeous colorful lights.
Since Eisenberg is not a castle specifically designed to defend against foreign enemies, the designs here are mostly aesthetically pleasing. Gorgeous stone lion statues are all over the castle, and various pattern carvings can be seen everywhere on the city walls.
...The undefended Elsenburg is actually the base of the Eastern Sky Knights, the administrative district of the Parliament, and a museum housing various national treasures?...The Parliament is really so peaceful that it is an idiot.
"Oh, isn't this Miss Greenville?" Before Arthur and the others could put on their masks, a white-haired old man in gorgeous clothes came up to him and said politely, "Are these guys strangers?"
May I ask who the eldest lady is?"
Arthur looked at Greenville, expecting her to help finish the scene.
"Good evening, Duke Aurel (Greenville saluted). This is my cousin, Artoria from the Leo Diggens family." Greenville was indeed prepared, "My father has been feeling unwell recently.
Since I can't attend such a banquet, I have to ask Artoria to fill in for the time being. She is a child who is afraid of life, so please forgive me for the rudeness."
"Oh, it doesn't matter." The old man said to Arthur with a kind smile and stretched out his hand, "Miss Artoria, good evening. This old man is the Royal Clerk Aurel. Nice to meet you."
"Hello, Duke Aurel." Arthur specially lengthened his vocal cords and made a slender female voice. At the same time, he followed Greenville's example and bowed, and stretched out his hand: "Nice to meet you, too."
"Haha, Miss Artoria's beauty is really like the stars in the sky, elegant, refined and bright." The old man said, taking Arthur's hand and kissing the back of his hand.
Arthur couldn't help but feel horrified!
He looked at Greenville beside him, and unexpectedly saw Greenville's mischievous smile.
...I really want to kill this little devil.
Bedivere couldn't help but look at Arthur. Arthur's white face and delicate skin are actually very suitable for playing women's clothes. As a man, he was originally weak and unqualified, but as a girl, he showed up in front of people.
But she is pitiful, showing a kind of morbid beauty...Arthur is indeed, really, maybe...a beauty.
...Bedivere swallowed his saliva and refused to think about such weird things. He felt ashamed that he had such crazy thoughts.
"Shi Yuli?" After walking away for a while, Arthur quickly put on his mask and asked Greenville at the same time.
"Uncle Aurel is an official who specializes in writing history books. From ordinary history books that can be seen by the people to [black history], he compiled them all by himself." Greenville also put on a mask, "He and the old man
I have some friendship with Dad. So, it doesn’t matter. I know his character very well, at least I know that he is not a bad person.”
"He's just a perverted old man." Arthur wiped the back of his hand with a handkerchief, "You actually kissed my hand. It's so disgusting."
"What's the big deal when a gentleman kisses the back of a lady's hand?" Greenville sneered, "Just learn from it, young man. You can't tolerate such a small thing, and you still want to be a lady?"
"I'm not a lady..." Arthur replied depressedly.
"It's so noisy, come with me." Greenville said, "First blend into the crowd and wait for the opportunity. Then--"
At the same time, London, the first imperial capital, was on the eastern outskirts of the city.
"I see." The knight in black armor walked slowly in the countryside. Every time he walked a certain distance, there was a light point in the distance guiding his way. It seemed that the other party was using a flashlight to guide his actions.
"Want to find a good duel place?" Gunser said disdainfully as he walked, "Tricks are useless, I will let you rot in the grave you dug yourself."
He cursed and walked deeper into the countryside.
In the square in Elsenburg, the masquerade party is in full swing.
A silver-haired young man was grabbing food at the dining table. This ball full of aristocrats served abalone, lobster, shark fin, matsutake...all are expensive foods that are difficult for young people to eat. He ate them all.
Very fragrant.
"Bedi, your tail is exposed." Arthur whispered.
"Whatever, this is just a masquerade party. If you see the tail, you will think it is a decoration." Bedivere ate happily, burping from time to time. He looked at the person holding a cocktail and drinking it without getting any water.
Arthur couldn't help but ask: "Arthur, why don't you have something to eat and drink? You just stand there and do nothing, but you look very unnatural."
"I can't," Arthur's face looked helpless under the mask, "It's inconvenient to move around now. If you want to go to the toilet, you have to think about which toilet to use..."
"Well ... hard you." Beidivil laughed, "Well, this fruit juice is so delicious? Hey, why suddenly feel a little dizzy? Hahahaha ------" "
"Bedi?" Arthur looked at it and realized that the glass Bediwell was holding was not juice, but a glass of punch!
"Tristan, you gave him wine?!"
"Uh, is this wine?" Tristan was about to drink, and immediately put down the glass in his hand, "Oh, no... Bedi, are you okay?"
"Oh hehehe... This castle suddenly looks so beautiful? Colorful, and rotating... rotating?" Bedivere began to talk nonsense.
"Damn it. Tristan, help Bediwell to rest quickly, don't let him show his weakness." Arthur saw that the illusion on Bediwell's body began to fail, and the silver hair on his body began to be vaguely visible.
This was originally an illusion cast by Master Merlin on Bedi, making the werewolf boy temporarily look like a human when he was sober. Now that Bedi is drunk, the magic is beginning to fail!
"Is something going on?" Greenville had just returned from a dance and saw Tristan helping Bedy and leaving in a hurry.
"Bedi accidentally drank wine and became drunk. I hope he won't be seen." Arthur said anxiously, "Didn't you say you were going to take action? When? If you want to take action, hurry up?"
"It's not now, don't worry." Greenville said, "Wait a little longer. The fireworks show is about to start. We can do it then."
"Are you sure?" Arthur's tone was filled with confusion. When will the fireworks start? Is it related to the plan?
"Don't worry, my plan will never go wrong." Greenville said.
"I hope so------"
Before Arthur could finish speaking, a young man suddenly walked over. His black evening gown almost blended into the night, but his white shirt made him stand out in the night scene.
"This voice," the young man said with a bow, "could it be Miss Glynis and Miss Artoria?"
Arthur broke into a cold sweat: "Your Majesty, your Excellency...?"
He vaguely remembered that he had seen this playboy before. Where was he?
"Do you still remember me, beautiful ladies?" The young man took off his mask, revealing a fair face with a playboy-like cynical temperament, "I am Yaglovi Yaglovi D. Pa.
Lin Luoer. Welcome ladies to the castle of the Eastern Sky Knights."
Palin Lore?! Arthur secretly sweated again. It’s really a narrow road for enemies!
"Young ladies, do you really not remember me?" Yaglovy said, "Do you still remember my encounter with the ladies in the coffee shop in the imperial capital?"
Oh, it was this guy. Arthur finally remembered. This guy was the two idiots he met in the coffee shop when Arthur and Greenville were on a "date"... They were really on opposite sides of the road!!
"Of course, this is my younger brother Persiva." Yaglovi pointed to a young man beside him, who was also wearing a black evening gown and a white shirt, and was shrinking shyly behind his brother.
"Haha, don't mind, he is a shy guy." Yagloi put on the mask, "Then, Miss Glynis, can you dance with me?"
"..." Greenville looked at Arthur and signaled that Arthur could figure it out. Then she pretended to be happy and saluted Yaglovi, "That's mine.
It's an honor, sir."
She was invited to dance by Yagloi, leaving Arthur alone.
Persiva next to him then whispered: "A...Miss Artoria, can you also give me a favor and dance with me?"
The most troublesome situation happened. When there was no Greenville to help finish the scene, and no Betty and Tristan to help, Arthur met this troublesome nymphomaniac.
Do you want to refuse?
No, if you refuse, it will be very unnatural to stand here all night.
What's more, this guy is from the Palinlor clan. If it makes him suspicious...
"Okay." Arthur lowered his voice and whispered, "I don't dance much, and I'm not used to appearing in social situations dressed like this. Please don't mind if you don't dance well, Mr. Persiva."
"No, no problem. I'm not very good at dancing. Please don't mind if I don't dance well, beautiful lady." Pasiva saluted and invited Arthur to dance on stage.
Arthur returned the salute dejectedly, put his hand on Percival's, and walked onto the stage with his support.
The pain from the blisters on Arthur's feet told him that this long night was really beginning now.
