609. Proposal
Suldak danced with Hathaway in his arms, and then danced with Beatrice on the dance floor. Beatrice was much more open than Hathaway, and she almost had both hands.
Holding Suldak tightly, the two of them danced the dance together without any gaps.
Hathaway sat in a booth next to the dance floor with a wine glass in her hand, and rejected the invitations of several young nobles with a straight face. No one could muster the courage to invite her.
Considering that Suldak did not know the aristocratic circle of the Bena Advanced Swordsman Academy, Hathaway and Beatrice declined the invitations of several friends. Instead of chatting with the young aristocrats, they sat alone.
Talking quietly in the corner.
Several young nobles who graduated from Bena Advanced Swordsman Academy in the same year as Hathaway have already recognized Suldak. Isn't this the one who beat up a group of them in Handanar City?
A knight!
When they looked at Suldak, there was still some hostility in their eyes, and the others no longer insisted on inviting Hathaway and the others.
In fact, Surdak also has some friends in the upper-class noble circles of Bena City, such as Viscount Kincaid from the security camp of Bena City and so on.
During the war on the Maca plane, many knights in the guard camp knew Surdak, and they also knew that there was a knight in the Halanza guard camp who was good at using the Holy Light.
This guard battalion knight was not only helpful on the battlefield, but also performed very well in the battle. Helansa Guard Battalion, which was originally not very outstanding, performed very well in the defense battle of the Maka plane. Moreover, no one
Any doubts about this.
After all... I have saved your life, what else do you want!
At this time, a group of knights wearing uniforms with guard battalion insignias on their chests came up to Suldak, holding wine glasses. Suldak also saw the figure of Viscount Kincaid among this group of people.
Kincaid stood in the crowd and raised his glass of wine towards him.
The three construct knights standing in front had already greeted Suldak with a smile. The sturdy construct knight standing in the middle of the three said eagerly: "If it weren't for Marquis Luther's ball, we might not have the chance to do this.
See you again soon!"
At this time, a curly-haired nobleman next to him who was a little skinny and had two Western rapiers hanging on his waist pushed the sturdy knight away and rushed to say to Surdak: "Knight Surdak, do you still remember me?"
? You were the one who healed my injury at that time."
Several young nobles behind him laughed loudly, and one of them joked: "He saves so many people every day. When we carried you over, you were lying on a stretcher, covered in bandages like a mummy."
Several female companions in this group of young nobles looked at the curly-haired nobles in surprise. A beautiful blonde punched the sturdy knight hard and asked him in surprise: "Myron was hurt so badly?
Why didn't you say anything when you came back?"
The sturdy knight held the blonde beauty's fist and explained with a gentle look: "Injuries are inevitable on the battlefield. What's there to say? Look at this guy coming back alive and kicking!"
The curly-haired nobleman walked up to Surdak, put his hand on his shoulder, and said with a gloomy face: "Suldak, you saved me, I am very grateful. I owe you a favor, but for you
I also had some ideas about some practices on the battlefield. There were two seriously injured Wozhimara indigenous guard soldiers in front of me. I didn’t think they were qualified to receive treatment in front of me. After all, I am a noble and should have priority.
Right."
The other young nobles laughed loudly.
Some people couldn't help but stand in the crowd and ridiculed the curly-haired nobleman:
"Hey! Myron, you are still worried about that matter!"
"That's right, Myron... shouldn't you be here to express your gratitude?"
Suldak saw that they all wore the badges of the guard camp on their chests. It was not difficult to guess that these young nobles were from the guard camp, and they should be a group of very close friends who spoke to each other without any scruples.
"Shouldn't chatting between friends just involve talking about whatever comes up?" the curly-haired aristocrat named Myron retorted.
In the end, the sturdy construct knight patted Surdak on the shoulder and said sincerely: "Baron Surdak, if you encounter trouble in Bena City in the future, you can come to us at the guard camp at any time!"
Suldak looked at Viscount Kincaid in the crowd, and Viscount Kincaid smiled at him again and raised his glass...
…
Halfway through the dance, Suldak pulled Hathaway and Beatrice out to get some fresh air and left the somewhat noisy hall.
There are many colored lanterns hanging in the back garden. The snow here has been cleared away, and the colored lanterns reflect some of the snow walls, which look particularly beautiful at night.
Beatrice breathed out a puff of white air. The temperature in the garden was a bit low. In order to facilitate dancing, the two ladies ran out of the hall wearing only a fur cloak.
Atrice hugged one of Surdak's arms tightly, as if it was very warm.
Seeing that there was almost no one in the clean garden, Hathaway bravely hugged one of Suldak's arms, and the three of them almost hugged each other and wandered in the garden.
This back garden was just behind the castle. The three of them walked into a roofless pavilion. Some magic wall lamps were hung on the surrounding relief stone pillars. Countless soft lights reflected the pavilion beautifully.
The pavilion had been swept away without a trace of snow, and there was actually a thick velvet blanket spread in the middle.
"Oh my God, who actually laid such a luxurious blanket here..."
"I think there are a lot more magic wall lamps here tonight than usual. This is the first time I've been here so many times that I feel this place is so beautiful!"
It was Beatrice who spoke.
Suldak walked to the pavilion alone and held out a bouquet of pure white roses from behind the stone pillar. He took a deep breath and strode towards Hathaway.
Hathaway turned around suddenly as if feeling something, and saw Suldak kneeling on the ground in front of her, handing out a bouquet of roses in his hand...
"If you are willing to marry me, please accept this bouquet of roses!"
Hathaway covered her mouth. She was obviously not mentally prepared. Although she knew that there would always be such a day, she just didn't expect that this day would come so quickly. Then she turned her head and looked at her best friend with a little hesitation, Suldak's hand.
There is no second bouquet of roses.
Beatrice, who was standing aside, was almost in tears. She covered her eyes with her hands and said with a crying voice: "Hurry up and agree, fool!"
Hathaway bit her lip and without any further hesitation, she nodded vigorously to Suldak, took the white rose that Surdak gave him, and pulled him up from the ground.
Hathaway's eyes were as gentle as water, and she gently replied: "I am willing..."
Suldak took a step forward, stretched out his hands, and hugged Hathaway tightly in his arms.
The next second, the terrace on the north side of the castle was brightly lit. Marquis Luther, Lady Marianne and members of the Luther family were standing on the terrace. Everyone gave blessings and applause to the two people in the pavilion.
and cheers…
Lady Marian leaned into Marquis Luther's arms and felt that Marquis Luther's whole body was tense. Looking carefully at his face, she realized how bitter his smile was.
And until this moment, Hathaway didn't know everything here. It turned out that Suldak had prepared it in advance.
And it seemed that Suldak had obtained the consent of Marquis Luther. Hathaway pursed her lips. She wanted to laugh, but she couldn't help but wanted to cry. She hugged Suldak tightly and couldn't do anything.
Want to let go.
As Hathaway's good sister, Beatrice also stepped forward to hug Hathaway.
For her sister Beatrice, Hathaway is still full of debts. From the beginning, Beatrice has never concealed her love for Suldak. On the contrary, she once had a period of confusion, and now she
Gaining this feeling, Beatrice stood aside and watched...
Hathaway hugged Beatrice and couldn't think of any words of comfort for a moment.
Probably wanting to give the couple who had been blessed by everyone some time alone, the 'Luther family's relatives and friends' witnessed this extremely short proposal ceremony, and at the suggestion of Marquis Luther, they said, 'Hula',
Leave quickly from the terrace on the second floor of the castle.
…
Suldak stood beside Hathaway and Beatrice. Although he knew that the customs and customs of the Green Empire were very different from those in his previous life, he still felt strong contempt for himself in his heart.
He bravely put a hand on Beatrice's back and summoned up the courage to say: "Beatrice, I will visit Count Gophero tomorrow. I hope that my proposal to you will win the favor of the Count."
consent..."
Hearing Suldak suddenly say this, the round-faced Beatrice raised her head from Hathaway's arms and looked at Suldak with a pair of tear-filled lake-blue eyes. The next second...
Tears turn into laughter.
