Chapter 78: Noble Banquet

Three days later in the evening, a handsome young man wearing a luxurious dress appeared at the door of the Royal Knights Academy, panting.

This outfit made the female students in the ordinary class who were returning home from school look at her with suspicion.

However, when they saw the woman in front of the young man, they all looked ashamed of themselves.

"Hey, Clemont, why are you here so late? By the time we arrive, the dinner party will probably have started!"

Outside the Royal Academy of Knights, Mariana, wearing a black aristocratic evening dress, looked as noble and dazzling as a black swan at the moment. Of course, it would be perfect if the expression on her face was ignored.

"Sorry, training ended a little late!"

After hearing Clemont's explanation, Mariana retracted her raised fist.

"Okay! Let's set off quickly!"

After finishing speaking, Mariana held up her skirt and boarded the luxurious magic caravan behind her.

But Clemont's eyes were focused on her delicate white right ankle.

Just as he was watching in ecstasy, Mariana's urging voice sounded.

"Clairemont, hurry up!"

Looking at Mariana waving to him in the car, Clemont rubbed his nose and got into the car.

The afterglow of the setting sun makes the streets with flaming red leaves complement the sunset glow.

The two people in the car fell into a long silence.

Seemingly feeling that this atmosphere was a bit outrageous, Clemont coughed lightly and asked: "How is the magic shield? Is the method I mentioned last time feasible?"

Hearing Clemont's question, Mariana pursed her lips and smiled, then teased: "Didn't you see everything just now?"

Hearing this, Clemont's face turned red.

But Mariana didn't let him get embarrassed: "The method you said is correct. Now I can use the magic shield at any time!"

Mariana was naturally very happy about this matter. Although the man in front of her came up with the idea, she was the one who actually researched it!

She also made a lot of sacrifices for this, as evidenced by the rose tattoo on her right ankle.

"So, you put the magic shield..."

"No, the name Magic Shield is too unpleasant. Let's change it to another name!"

The more Mariana listened, the more she felt that the name Magic Shield was not only unpleasant, but also a convoluted name.

Anyway, she thought she should change her name to a more domineering one.

Looking at Mariana's serious expression, Clemont shook his head helplessly: "What's a better name?"

"I remembered!"

Mariana's eyes lit up and she suddenly shouted.

"What?"

Clemont looked at Mariana curiously.

"Just call it 'Shield of the Sky'!"

After hearing Mariana's words, Clemont almost choked to death on his own saliva.

If it weren't for the faint body fragrance that came from his nose from time to time, Clement would have thought that the noble lady in front of him was some imperial marshal with the world in mind!

This kind of magnanimity is really not something that ordinary people can possess, but when thinking about Mariana's origin, everything seems to make sense.

"why are you laughing?"

Looking at Clemont's slightly twitching face, Mariana asked with some confusion.

"It's nothing, I just think the name is a bit too grand and doesn't fit the inner image of the magician group!"

After hearing Clemont's words, Mariana also realized something, and then she frowned and started thinking.

The greatest characteristic of a magician is his intelligence and erudition, and the name Sky Shield does not match his image.

"Well, let's call it Magic Shield! It's simple and fits the temperament of a magician."

"Let me think again!"



Just as the two were naming this new type of magic, the magic caravan drove into a vast manor.

"Miss, we are here!"

Hearing the coachman's voice, Mariana glanced outside, and then said as if she was discouraged: "Okay, let's call it Magic Shield!"

Seeing that Mariana finally compromised, Clemont also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to call out those shameful names when he learned this magic in the future!

"Miss Mariana, please!"

Clement, who got out of the car first, extended his hand in a gentlemanly gesture of invitation.

Mariana also smiled and nodded, placing her slender, boneless jade hand on Clemont's palm.

"Let's go!"

Feeling the warmth from Mariana's palm, Clemont also had a strange feeling in his heart.

"Let's go, Clement!"

Although Mariana seemed calm, her slightly trembling tone revealed the panic in her heart.

Within the huge arch of the manor is an open green lawn and a beautiful lake sparkling under the magic crystal lamp.

The grassy slopes extend to both sides, with a wide and clean corridor in the middle leading to the golden castle in front.

But at this time, many people had gathered in the square at the entrance of the castle.

Walking along the corridor, Clemont glanced at the surrounding shadows, and then said with deep meaning:

"Marianna, please tell me now! A manor of this size is not something that ordinary people can own!"

Hearing Clemont's words, Mariana chuckled.

"You are not even afraid of His Highness Delia, are you still afraid of other nobles?"

After saying that, Mariana took the lead in walking out of the corridor.

Clemont saw this and followed him.

In the center of the small square, there is also a small bronze sculpture fountain. The crystal water droplets splash on the surrounding roses, shining with a charming luster under the light.

There were many noble men and women standing in the square talking to each other, but when Mariana's figure appeared in the square, she immediately attracted everyone's attention.

However, their eyes soon shifted to the man next to Mariana.

Wearing a black tuxedo, he has a slender and tall figure, thin cheeks and sharp edges, and a pair of dark blue eyes shining with mysterious luster like stars.

Under a pair of thick eyebrows, a ruddy and handsome face reveals an innate confidence.

Just when all the nobles in the square were thinking about who this extraordinary male companion was next to Miss Mariana.

A young man with a slightly gloomy face walked out.

"Mariana, you came just in time, the dinner is about to start!"

But when he saw Clemont, the joy on his face instantly faded away.

"Who is this?"

Looking at the noble man in front of him, Clement clasped his fist with one hand and placed it on his left chest. Then he smiled and said, "Clement Thacker!"

"The Thacker family? I didn't expect that your Thacker family is still active in the upper class circles. Since you are here, let's come in together!" The man returned the salute in a calm tone, then turned and walked towards the castle.

Looking at the man's back, Clemont's eyes gradually became playful.

"Sari Upton, the second in line of succession to the Grand Duke Upton family! He has just returned from the Spina Defense Line, and this dinner is just to welcome him!"

Marianne on the side made an introduction, then stared at Clemont apologetically and said:

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect this guy to be like this. If you feel uncomfortable, let's go back now!"

Hearing Mariana's words, Clemont felt warm in his heart, but he was not that fragile, and he just took this opportunity to get to know the younger generation of the empire.
