Miss Aurora agreed with a smile, not forgetting to wink at Shade. For a young girl, this is a very playful expression, but for Miss Carina and Miss Aurora, who are slightly more mature,
For some ladies, this is obviously a flirtatious look.
"What are you talking about?"
High heels hit the ground, and the sound of footsteps came from behind.
Wearing a luxurious red dress with a silver crown shining, Miss Carina walked over with a smile, accompanied by Miss Sylvia and Miss Benanis. Tifa and Siris walked behind, Lesia and A
Jelina was temporarily missing.
Miss Swift helped Granny Cassandra stand up, and the six great witches gathered in this corner of the banquet hall. The maids blocked their view, and Shade also took a step back to give them the space.
Everyone picked up their wine glasses and clinked them gently under the dazzling light of the gas lamp. Champagne, wine, port liqueur, and sherry were gently swaying in the glasses.
The elderly mother-in-law Cassandra looked extremely happy. She looked at the girls raising their glasses:
"It really hasn't been this lively in a long time. The last time we had such a meeting was more than thirty years ago."
More than thirty years ago, except for the half-elves Megan and Audrey, whose ages are unknown, the other witches were not witches yet.
"Mother-in-law, you can say this many times in the future. I'm afraid it will be even more lively than now."
The blond Miss Benanis said, and then glanced at Shade. Now all the witches laughed, they all understood what Miss Benanis meant.
Tifa pushed Shade gently from behind, so Shade stepped forward wisely:
"Duke Carina, I'm glad to see you in Green Lake City. Your beauty is even more amazing than the rumors say."
The red-haired witch smiled, but soon became serious again:
"Young sir, are you Ms. Green's male companion? I hope she is not mistaken. A man like you who looks too handsome must have many beautiful girls around him."
Everyone suppressed their laughter as she listened to her teasing Sha De. After Sha De also raised his glass, everyone took a sip of wine and then dispersed. The banquet was not a good place to discuss issues, and they had plenty of time to reminisce over the next few days.
.
Shade originally planned to stay with Megan until the ball started. After all, he had no other purpose for attending the party. However, after resisting not looking at the man playing Rhodes in the corner, Megan actually took the initiative to take the party with him.
He went to see Miss Carina again.
That was half an hour after the six witches gathered together. Next, Miss Carina would give a public speech as the host of the banquet, which was a speech calling for peace. I heard that Lesia helped write the manuscript.
When Shade and Megan saw her, she was talking to an aristocratic old woman who looked like Kasenrik, while Margaret, the princess of Kasenrik, was talking to Lesia from the side.
What are you wearing?
The other Cavendish princes and princesses who followed Miss Carina were also nearby. But because of Miss Carina's strength, they were basically just the background for this negotiation. The king sent them here.
Probably just here to gain experience.
Seeing Shade coming, Agelina greeted the two of them. The little princess wore a blue and white dress and a diamond-encrusted pink hair accessory on her long red hair, giving her the aura of Miss Lesia and Carina.
Very different.
She smiled sweetly at Shade, and then led the two of them to see Miss Carina. After the introduction, Shade also knew that the person who was talking to Miss Carina was the one who was involved in the assassination a week ago.
Princess Simil of the Gun.
When the Duke was unable to attend, she came to the banquet on his behalf. Although she had no position in the delegation, the Duchess, who had gone through many trials and tribulations, could not be underestimated.
Miss Carina introduced Megan to the Duchess, and Shade learned that the Simil family was also involved in the business of medicinal materials and synthetic drugs in the United Kingdom of Carsonlik.
The Duchess was happy to talk to Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals, and during the conversation between the two, Shade and the red-haired Duchess stood at a distance. The latter held his hands in front of his chest and pinched the stem of the goblet with his right hand.
It's like looking at the crowd.
But in fact, the voice appeared in Shade's ears:
"Isn't this banquet good? Don't look at me, just answer directly in your heart."
"Of course it's good."
Shade said in his heart, and then heard the witch's laughter:
"If Lesia hadn't been there right now, I'm afraid you would have been dragged into messing around with her again, right? The Cavendish princess's reserve can't be seen in Lesia at all."
Shade quietly glanced at Lesia not far away, who was still talking to Margaret. The two princesses were elegant and beautiful, and were the focus of the banquet. However, of course Lesia didn't know
What did Miss Carina say about her at this time?
"It's a pity that we're not in Tobesk now. Otherwise, I could have invited you to a dance. Or you should have invited me."
The witch was still talking, and Shade also felt sorry:
"How about I dance with you after the party is over?"
"Of course. Do you think I will let you go when the banquet is over?"
Her voice spoke in Shade's ear. Shade tried hard to control his face and not make any strange expressions. He pretended to be normal and observed the face of Carina standing aside, but found that she was looking at her with a smile.
The lively crowd seemed to be really enjoying their own banquet.
Shade admired the Cavendish family's training of princesses.
"Fortunately, although I can't dance with you, Lecia can't either."
The witch continued, and it was difficult for Shade to comment on this. It seemed that she had not realized that other witches did not need to care about their identities. Shade thought that this might be Megan and Audrey, who was complaining about the last banquet.
revenge, but he couldn't find any evidence.
He looked towards the crowd attending the banquet, trying to see what Luvia and Iluna were doing at this time, when he suddenly saw someone coming over.
It was a man who looked to be in his thirties, wearing formal clothes and white gloves on his hands. Shade recalled it for a moment and knew that this was the eldest prince of Kasenlik, Samuel, who is now 29 years old.
· Anjou. He is the eldest of Margaret's siblings and is now married. But because their father, King Lion Lion, is in very good health, even Anjou, who is most likely to inherit the throne,
Although he is a member of the royal family, he still cannot hold a very important position in the kingdom.
If there are no accidents, it will take many years for him to inherit the throne.
Margaret's brother walked towards Miss Carina and stopped at a very appropriate place to say hello to the duchess. It seemed that he was quite aware of the various rumors about Carina Cavendish.
He can speak fluent Delarian. At this time, he came to say a few words to Miss Carina, and then said with a smile:
"Duke, should we jointly speak in a moment?"
He pointed to himself:
"For the sake of peace and continued cooperation between the two countries, if we can jointly issue a statement, it may have better results."
He has a pretty perfect smile on his face, but the red-haired witch has become accustomed to similar smiles recently:
"You mean, your sister and I will give the speech together?"
She said casually, gently twirling the wine glass with her fingers:
"Samuel Anjou, what can't be done at the negotiation table can be done by just saying a few words at the banquet? You and I both know what the purpose of this banquet is. You don't need to tell me this."
"Duke, you are indeed as straightforward as the rumors say. I heard that you invited my sister to stay here tonight? I hope she won't cause you too much trouble."
He didn't bother at all and immediately started a new topic. But even so, Miss Carina still didn't want to continue talking to him.
The witch glanced at Shade who was standing aside, and Shade said in his heart:
"You wouldn't suggest that I fight him here now, right?"
This idea sounds quite ridiculous. Even in his current capacity, Shade has no reason to talk to the prince. But according to Shade's understanding of Miss Carina, this is something she can do.
"Help me drive him away. I'll ask Tifa to change her clothes and dance with you later."
She responded to Shade with the voice in her heart, and Shade glanced at the expressionless black-haired maid standing behind the two of them, and said in her heart:
"I want to remind you, I didn't drive him away just to dance with Tifa, I did."
"Oh, take action quickly. Don't I know what's going on between you and my maid?"
Shade coughed, and Prince Samuel Anjou looked at him in surprise, and then asked:
"Who is this"
"Hello, Your Highness, I am the male companion of Miss Green from Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals."
He pointed at Meghan, who was talking to Duchess Simil, and then reached out and shook hands with Prince Samuel, confirming that the other person was an ordinary person and that there were no traces of any elements on his body.
I gently said sorry in my heart, and at the same time of contact, the effect of the thaumaturgy "Puppetry" was activated.
Although he didn't know Shade, Margaret's brother still said a few words to Shade politely. When the servant holding the wine tray passed by, he also took a glass of champagne from the wine tray.
.Then his hand shook and he accidentally spilled the drink on his leather shoes.
"I am sorry."
He shook his head with a gentle smile, then turned and left to clean his shoes.
Miss Carina still stood there without moving, and Shade still stood beside her without speaking.
"It's very good."
She whispered in Shade's ear, and looked at the lively but bizarre everything under the light with him:
"How great would it be if we didn't have to face those challenges and difficulties in the future and could be like now every day?"
