The atmosphere in the hotel lobby is a bit awkward!
"Let's go!"
Without looking back, the blond man also knew that those messengers were pointing at him and making fun of him. He had just mocked them for not having an invitation, but he didn't expect to receive retribution immediately. At the banquet between the queen and the duke, he knew which one was more important when he thought about it on his knees.
Heavy.
Before he could go out, another middle-aged man came in. The family crest on his chest directly indicated his identity.
"Isn't this Butler Mo Dan?" Wucuo Novel Network did not skip the words. The blond man smiled and greeted me, "There is no need to arrange a carriage to pick me up. You can go to the banquet by yourself."
The blond man puffed up his chest. It was an honor to be greeted by a butler sent by the Duke of Hanover, so he looked around as if to show off, wanting to see the envious and jealous faces of the envoys.
"Sorry, the party is cancelled."
The butler explained his purpose.
"What?"
The blond man was stunned, and there were chuckles all around, "What's going on?"
"Queen Cersei held a dinner and invited many princes, princesses, and children of rich and powerful families. The Duke was also going, so the dinner was declined."
The butler left after saying, "I'm sorry."
"Hey, wait!"
The blond man chased for a few steps, but it was in vain. What rights does a butler who delivers a message have? And the Duke, he will naturally attend the party that is most beneficial to him.
"Ha ha!"
The messengers couldn't hold it back any longer and burst into loud laughter. The blond man really looked like a clown and was simply humiliating himself.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
The blond man had no shame in staying at the Golden Rose and found an excuse to leave. He was so angry that he almost broke his teeth.
Because it was not a formal state banquet, it was not held in Summermleep Palace in Twilight, but was arranged in the Red Keep in the western suburbs. It was Queen Cersei's residence for leisure hunting.
When Downton arrived, there was already a lot of traffic in front of the castle, and many guests were chatting. Faced with the Queen's invitation, let alone being late, he had to come at least an hour early.
The carriage stopped. A well-trained servant brought the stirrups, opened the door, and acted with propriety and etiquette, revealing a refined and elegant royal style.
Ordinary little nobles probably don't know which leg to take when they come here, but Downton and Elaine are no longer country bumpkins in the morning fog, and they will never be rude and be laughed at.
"It's a family emblem I've never seen before. Which family is this descendant from?"
"Wow. That girl is so beautiful. We need to get to know her later!"
"What a handsome man, he is my type!"
The guests looked at Downton and his entourage. The playboy's eyes kept wandering greedily on Elaine and Nicole, while the ladies and ladies took secret glances at Downton.
At the door, Downton handed over the invitation and the three prepared gifts.
"Your Highness Downton, Your Highness Elaine. Master Nicole, I wish the Queen good health and all the best!"
The head maid in charge of welcoming guests called out. This is also the usual practice to introduce the identity of the guests so that everyone can get to know and talk to each other.
"What? Downton? Isn't it the one in Frankfurt?" Wuyou Novel Network does not skip words.
"That's right, the illegitimate son of the King of Britannia, the rumored target of His Royal Highness Di Lanxue, and the real boyfriend of Princess Sissi!"
"This guy actually dares to come to Twilight? Aren't you afraid of being killed by Heinrich?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
The guests looked at Downton, a little curious, a little surprised, and a little inquiring. Compared with those third-rate nobles, those who are qualified to stand here are at least rich and powerful. Naturally, they are very well-informed, so they know most of Downton's deeds.
.
A waiter brought some wine.
"You can only drink juice!"
Downton gave Elaine a glass of champagne each, and warned Little Walnut who wanted to get red wine.
"All right!"
The little loli pouted, but her eyes were quickly attracted by those desserts.
For certain purposes and fears, no one came to talk to Downton even though he was famous and had legendary experiences. They just looked around and observed from time to time.
"Twilight will appear, right? There are many words on Wucuo Novel Network"
Looking at the bright moon, Downton felt uneasy. Who would have thought that the Queen would place the banquet in this place? As for socializing, he was not in the mood at all.
Elaine stayed with Downton quietly, while Nicole and Hutao went to taste the delicious food.
Finally, someone couldn't help it anymore and walked towards Downton.
"I'm coming!"
The guests were excited as the long-awaited show arrived.
"Your Highness Downton, I am the second son of Archduke Ferdinand. I am very envious after hearing about your experience. I now hope to fight you to prove my strength. Please feel free to give me your advice!"
The speaker was a young man in his twenties, with an impressive appearance and a very low attitude. If he lost, he would have a chance to step down. Once he won, it would be a huge honor.
Since Downton defeated Woodford and went through several heavyweight battles, he has become recognized as the number one person under Heinrich and has become the step that many people want to follow to climb to the top.
Downton did not answer, but turned to look over, and then looked around. Many people were eager to try.
In these worlds, most people are lucky. Many guests present, except for those who are narcissistic, know that they are no match for Downton, but they still want to challenge. After all, what if they win?
A royal banquet, filled with wealthy families and distinguished guests, isn't this the most perfect stage? Once Downton is defeated on such a highly anticipated occasion, his name will be spread throughout the upper class society of the entire continent the next day.
These people will not give up until they have suffered losses and shed blood. They are like moths rushing to the fire, fighting for the glory one after another.
"I'll fight you!"
Elaine stepped forward, but her brother was obviously absent-minded. Not only did he stumble, but it would also be bad to get injured. He wanted to maintain his condition against Heinrich.
"Sorry, not interested!"
Downton stopped his sister.
"I sincerely ask for your advice."
The young man spoke sincerely.
"Feel sorry!"
Downton refused.
The young man didn't bother and seemed to have a kind attitude. However, when this guy turned around and walked back to his friends, he spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders. He showed an attitude that the other party didn't want to fight and I had no choice but to do anything.
It’s thought-provoking.
He acted as if he would definitely win the duel.
"These nobles are so scheming!"
Elaine pouted.
"never mind."
Downton didn't care, to be honest. To fight these people in a duel was simply a matter of losing one's status. He was not a saint, not a god of war, and he didn't even have the qualifications to challenge him.
In the corner, Princess Anna, who was admired by the stars, dismissed the flattering men and looked at the girl wearing a purple Venetian mask next to her.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Ever since Downton appeared, this girl's demeanor has changed. The darkness is oppressive and frightening.
"Just meeting a friend!"
The masked girl's tone was cold.
"Do you know Downton?"
Anna asked, this girl is Heinrich's sister. It is said that she was sent to the secret realm for training since she was a child. She did not return until her brother's wedding recently. She is very powerful. In just one month, she defeated several empire rookies. Got it
The reputation of a demon queen.
The masked woman didn't answer.
"Do you want to have a fight with him?"
After Anna finished speaking, she walked straight to Downton without waiting for the masked girl to agree. Anyway, without her, there were other Empire rookies present today. In short, she suffered a loss last time. Today she must get it back and let Downton stand in front of everyone.
Make a fool of yourself.
The masked girl hesitated for a moment, but then followed.
"Downton, we meet again."
Anna covered her red lips with a small fan and chuckled, looking familiar.
Downton nodded in response. This cold attitude made Anna even more annoyed.
"Who is this……"
Elaine looked at the masked woman in confusion, as if she felt something familiar. Downton's eyes were also fixed on her.
"Let me introduce to you, this is the Demon Queen, Heinrich's sister."
Anna introduces.
"Nice to meet you!"
The masked girl spoke, her voice was hoarse, and her body was shaking uncontrollably. She avoided Downton's gaze, but then she felt weak, so she turned her head and stared at him fiercely.
"With all due respect, if you feel uncomfortable, you'd better find a place to rest!"
Downton is not in the mood to make fun of himself and is preparing to stay away from Anna.
"Wait a minute, the Demon Queen wants to challenge a big shot like you!"
Anna grabbed Downton's sleeve.
"She's not the only one, I also want to challenge!"
A young man with a slicked back came over and raised his glass to Downton, "Thank you for taking care of my family!"
"Who are you……"
Downton frowned, he could hear the hatred in the other person's words.
"You don't even know the heirs of the Dupont family. Should I say that you are arrogant or that you are too short-sighted?"
A young man wearing a dark green military uniform came over. This was a very rude thing to say, but he had the qualifications.
"He is a star of the Rockefeller family!"
The attention of the guests was immediately attracted. The man in military uniform and the young man with a slender back of his head were of such distinguished origins that they were the center of attention wherever they went.
"You want a duel? How can you do it without me?"
A man with narrow eyes and a feminine appearance teleported directly over, tapping his little finger and tasting the red wine in the glass.
"He comes from the Borgia family of Lombardy and is one of the new talents in the empire!" Anna introduced, "Downton, it seems that you are very popular. So many people want to duel with you, so don't let everyone down!"
"And I!"
“Count me in too!”
The nobles came out one after another. These guys were very clever in their calculations. Downton would definitely not challenge him in a duel, but having challenged him meant that he had seniority. In the future, he could brag that he had challenged the first person under Heinrich.
, to raise one’s own worth.
Of course, there are some people who really want to fight, such as those Empire rookies, but they can't wait to step on Downton and get to the top.
"What? Are you going to fight?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
Hutao squeezed through the crowd, glanced around, and frowned, "You idiots dare to challenge the big brother? Is your brain missing a thread? There are a lot of words in Wucuo Novel Network."
"Whether it is a trash fish or not, you have to kill it to find out!"
The man with the back of his head sneered, "Anyway, I'm not like some people, I don't even dare to challenge!"
"Okay, I'll duel with you." Hutao licked the ice cream with a look of contempt on his face, "If you can't even pass me, don't look for my big brother."
"Little sister, have you been weaned?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
The man with the back of his head teased, causing a lot of laughter. There are many people who can't stand Downton. It's such a good opportunity to not seize the opportunity to laugh. I would be sorry for myself. (To be continued.)
