"Catherine, Catherine?" Luke saw Catherine standing there blankly, neither speaking nor moving, as if she was distracted, so he called several times. Christina stood behind Catherine and saw that she was distracted.
Then she gently pulled the corner of Catherine's clothes, and Catherine suddenly woke up. She couldn't let others know that this dress actually belonged to her, otherwise she would be very likely to expose her flaws.
"Ah," Catherine said in amazement: "My sister and I are both beautiful. Luke, you have a pair of beautiful daughters." At this point, Catherine got into the subject and said to Farasi: "Excuse me, I saw you
, I suddenly remembered the legend about the 'Roses of the Imperial City', and I got distracted without realizing it. I'm really sorry."
Faras's face turned red. She was not sensible before, and relying on her status as father and teacher, she often got into trouble while studying at the Royal Academy of Magic, so she got the nickname "Roses of the Imperial City", but Faras was
After meeting Ryan, she has gradually changed her style of doing things and has become much more low-key, so no one has gradually mentioned this nickname. In turn, Alina, who learned magic with her, was nicknamed "Little Witch"
It spread like wildfire, giving everyone who provoked Alina a headache.
"Haha, just kidding." Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Catherine changed the subject, and then said to Luke: "Please continue."
In fact, most of the people present knew each other. For example, Ryan's Lacey team and Catherine's Goddess team competed for first place in the Royal Athletic Competition. How could they forget each other so quickly? Luke could not introduce it to Catherine himself.
It is a ceremony, and it can be regarded as a formal mutual acquaintance. It also implies reconciliation. After all, contact type existed as a competitor in the past.
"As you wish." Luke nodded, pointed to Alina next to Faras and said: "Alina is a good friend Faras met during the adventure, but now Alina is Faras's sister.
Yes, I am also happy to have such a daughter."
Alina followed Faras's example, made a noble salute, and said: "Hello, Catherine."
Catherine smiled at her and said, "I heard that you study magic at the Royal Academy of Magic?"
Alina replied: "Yes, I am now a glorious magic apprentice."
Luke continued: "Yes, Alina's talent is pretty good. But compared with Ryan, it's far behind. This is Ryan, Faras's friend."
Catherine set her sights on Ryan. She fought with Ryan twice, winning once and losing once. She had long remembered the appearance of this young magician in her heart. "Lian, this is not our first time.
We met." Catherine said with a pun: "It seems that your magic power has grown very quickly."
Ryan did not understand the true meaning of Catherine's words. He thought that Catherine was referring to the last battle at the Royal Athletic Competition. Little did he know that in the mine of Elmida, he had already met the breathtakingly beautiful girl in front of him.
The women had fought before, but that time, Catherine was in the lich form, and due to her carelessness, Ryan defeated one of Catherine's own dimensional projections.
Ryan said sincerely: "If I have the opportunity, I hope to ask you for more advice. I still remember that fire magic."
Catherine smiled and said: "There will be a chance."
"Okay, it's banquet time now, let's slowly exchange magic later." Luke brought the topic back in time, and he continued to introduce Alando and Flanner to Catherine. After all, both of them were Ryan's.
Good friends, and living in my own mansion, I can't exclude them.
After Luke finished introducing the people on his side, Catherine also began to introduce the people he brought. "Christina, a trainee holy knight, but now she is my personal guard." Catherine said with a smile: "Speaking of which, today
The party was really fun, it seemed like we were all acquaintances."
Christina's eyes were fixed on Ryan. It was the little magician in front of her who broke the Holy Knight's undefeated record in the Royal Athletic Competition, and despite her best efforts, she still lost to him. Christina
She has always had an unspeakable feeling for Ryan in her heart, and hated Ryan for defeating her, but Ryan's eyes, full of sincerity and respect, repeatedly appeared in Christina's dreams.
"Hello, Magician Ryan." Christina gave a knightly salute to Ryan and said loudly: "Thank you. If it weren't for you, I don't know how long I would have to bear that heavy yoke."
Ryan nodded solemnly towards Christina and replied: "You can think so, and I am very happy for you. Although we are rivals in the Royal Athletic Competition, I admire your will very much.
And fighting**, I think this is the biggest reason why the Royal Knights dominate the continent."
A warm current surged up in Christina's chest. In fact, that failure had a great impact on her. Although she never mentioned that matter again, Christina always had some grudges in her heart. She didn't expect that today she
Former rival Ryan said such words, which moved Christina very much.
"Thank you!" Christina said sincerely: Enter $1~6~k on the browser.
c'nSee the latest content-" "I will continue to work hard and hope that one day I can compete with you again."
Ryan also smiled sincerely. He nodded heavily and said, "Let's work hard together."
"Yes, it's better to turn enemies into friends." Luke intervened in time: "It's a pity that Orlando has something to do tonight and can't come, otherwise he would be very happy to see such a scene."
"Yes." Catherine said: "General Orlando and his Royal Knights are the pillars of the empire. It is their existence that ensures the stability of the empire. Well, let me introduce to you again, this is Maia."
Catherine pointed at Pastor Maia and said: "My former teammates, after the goddess team won, he and Calhit both stayed."
"This is the Calsite magician. Ha, I didn't expect that there would be six magicians gathered here tonight, a priest, a holy knight and a druid. Luke, if we go out on an adventure together, this lineup
It's really luxurious.
Everyone smiled. Indeed, it is very good for an ordinary mercenary group to have a magician. Among the six magicians here, Catherine must be at the level of a magician. Although Ryan wears the badge of a magic apprentice, no one thinks that
His strength is worse than that of the senior magician, and together with Druid Allen, the three of them can definitely form a powerful attack team, and their stormy attacks will definitely make their enemies despair.
"Okay, now that the introductions are over, let's take a seat." As the host, Luke, of course, arranged everything properly. Soon, everyone was sitting around a round dining table, which Luke took great pains to do.
As a result, after all, an ordinary rectangular dining table will invisibly highlight the identity of the banquet attendees, while this round dining table is more relaxed. Moreover, Luke deliberately mixed the people from both parties together to make it easier for everyone to communicate.
Next to Catherine were the Faras sisters. Although Catherine wanted to know how Faras got the purple magic robe at this moment, she never looked at the robe in particular. Instead, she chatted and laughed with the Faras sisters.
, and also talked about pleasant topics with Luke, Ryan and others from time to time.
Whether it was Ryan's side or Maia's side, everyone was born as a commoner, and there was no discrimination against each other. They quickly found common topics. Everyone talked about their previous adventurous careers, or talked about what they saw in the imperial capital.
Smell, the atmosphere is very harmonious.
As the banquet progressed, tonight's main course was finally served. A lamb roasted to golden brown, exuding a charming fragrance, was pushed to the round table by two servants in white clothes. A technician
The skilled chef quickly began to cut the lamb, dedicating the most delicious and tender part to Catherine, and then distributed the other parts to everyone at Luke's signal. The roast lamb was not very big, and the ten people present
When one person gets a big piece each, there is almost nothing left.
Ryan took a bite. The roasted lamb was very well cooked. It seemed to melt when he put it in his mouth. The aroma of the food was left in his mouth, which made people have endless aftertaste. Seeing that Ryan liked it very much, Farasi quietly put it in his mouth.
The portion was placed on Ryan's plate. Ryan smiled at her, and then ate it unceremoniously. Faras pursed her lips and smiled at Ryan's not very elegant eating appearance, and she just felt like saying in her heart
Unbelievably happy.
After everyone has tasted the main course, the banquet is almost over. Usually there will be vegetables and desserts later, and this is when the banquet enters the real theme.
The fresh fruit was brought up. Luke picked up a piece with a fork, put it into his mouth and chewed it slowly. Then he slowly chewed it up and swallowed it. Luke watched Catherine carefully taste the fruit in front of her.
, suddenly remembered that Catherine hardly ate much of the previous food tonight, and almost only tasted it briefly. On the contrary, Catherine seemed to like eating the current fruit very much.
"Ah, Catherine, it seems that you like these fruits very much. How about I give you some." Luke began to slowly bring the topic to tonight's topic: "These fruits are produced in the manor outside the city.
, it’s just relatively fresh.”
After Catherine became a lich, she stopped eating at all. Although she was reverse-transformed into a human by a demigod lich, this habit she had developed for hundreds of years has not changed. In fact, it is difficult to change. But Catherine
Now the body is completely human, and we still have to live more or less by eating, so Catherine adopted a compromise method, which was to support fruits. For a beautiful and incomparable woman, eating only fruits
Not only will it not arouse suspicion from others, but it will also be taken for granted. After all, women can do whatever it takes to stay in shape.
Catherine didn't want to get too entangled in this topic. She probably guessed some of Luke's purpose for tonight's banquet, so she simply said directly: "Thank you. But now that the Thunder God Fortress has fallen, the orc army will soon reach the outskirts of the imperial capital, right? Lu
