Section 23

"Oh, that's interesting, haha," Duke Gna was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing, his arrogant laughter that made Pedy's eardrums 'buzz'.

After a few seconds, the Duke put away his laughter and shouted, "Yaheng!"

"Your Excellency!" a young man in the standard leather armor of the Twak army trotted closer, "What do you command?"

"Bring out the purest highland ale and entertain my nephew, or my beautiful sister Saviara will curse my miserliness in the bunker of Crewe, knowing that I have neglected her son. The Duke of Garner looked delighted.

He made his choice.

Peddy smiled, "Thank you very much for your generosity, uncle, my entourage was discussing the fascinating taste of Highland ale in your territory a few hours ago. ”

"Then what are you waiting for, we're going to drink until dawn!" said Duke Gna, waving his hand, calling out to his retinue.

...

Soon, several guards carried three barrels of ale into the hall under the leadership of Duke Hu Cong Yaheng, and Duke Gna didn't talk nonsense, directly picked up a barrel of ale and threw it to where Pedi was.

His action frightened the people around him.

"Bang!

After two inaudible muffled sounds, Pedi wrapped his hands around the sides of the barrel and caught the barrel steadily, he smiled "haha" and turned his head to look behind him, "Hades, Collier, you miss the highland ale, go and thank Duke Gna for his generosity!"

Pedi's agility and strength made everyone look sideways, and they began to look at Pedi, who was just a child in their hearts.

Duke Gerner also looked at Pedy seriously, but soon snatched a tall wine glass from the hand of his attendant as if nothing had happened, opened the wine barrel carried up by the guard, and quickly and skillfully filled the whole glass, and then, he raised the wine glass and shouted arrogantly: "Cheers!"

As he spoke, he threw his head up.

"Boom!" the Duke drank from his cup of ale in one breath.

"Okay!" the cheers of the surrounding entourage suddenly began to fall.

"Bang bang!" the wine glass was casually tossed on the table by Duke Gna, and then he looked at Pedi with a pair of tiger eyes.

Pedi smiled wryly because he was poor at drinking, and he took a deep breath after looking at the whole glass of ale that Collier handed over with a smile on his face.

"Drink it!"

"Reagan boy, come on!"

"If you want to prove you're weaned, drink it in one sitting!"

...

Duke Gna's retinue began to urge.

Pedi raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced defiantly at the crowd of people gathered around him, grabbed his wine glass, and drank it all in the midst of boos and whistles!

"Hiccup..."

"Good!" came again.

"Boom!" said Petdy, who also put the glass on the table.

"Cheers to the friendship between the Barretts and the Reagans!" said Duke Gerner, raising his glass again.

Pedy's face changed, and his stomach churned as he watched the other man look up, but soon, he breathed a sigh of relief, because this time the Duke of Gna only took a small sip.

"Everyone, drink!" said Duke Gna, pushing the two casks of ale beside him.

"Oh!" the retinue who had long been unable to resist the frenzied snatching of the king's wine barrel made up, and the scene was a little chaotic for a while, and the people with little strength were even overturned to the ground, causing a burst of ridicule from the people around them.

...

The banquet lasted for a long time, and it was a quarter past three in the morning when everyone was so drunk that they fell asleep under the table.

During this time, the Duke of Gna never mentioned anything more about the area of the Koren fortress.

However, both sides got the answers they wanted.

This banquet is the best proof of this.

...

After the banquet, Andy, who was in a coma, was woken up by several guards and taken to a room in the hotel with relatively good soundproofing.

"It's the first time you've drunk so much wine?" asked the Duke of Garner, smiling.

Andy patted his cheek lightly, "Yes, if you could give me a little more money every month, my alcohol consumption would definitely not be so bad." ”

"If you want to enjoy life while a knight is training, you have to learn to earn your own money, and the existence of the 'law of nobility' is inevitable!" "Duke Gna lay flat on a sofa, his eyes narrowed into a slit.

"No nobleman cares about the so-called 'law of nobility' for a long time, father!" Andy continued to drink, saying whatever he wanted.

"Those people are just a bunch of nouveau riche, kid. Duke Gna was not angry at his son's remarks, perhaps because he did not want to let this little matter affect the reunion of father and son after nine years of absence.

"But in their eyes, we became 'rednecks'. Andy has a different take on this.

Duke Gerner frowned when he heard this, but then let go again, "You want to say that we are old-fashioned and old-fashioned?"

"It's a fact!"

"The truth is that our family is growing stronger, and they, the so-called new nobles, are nothing more than a bunch of clowns..."Duke Gnarr lowered his voice, "including His Majesty the Emperor, who brought them with them, the empire is being eaten away by them... If they don't catch their mistakes in time, soon, they'll pay for their previous actions. ”

"What..."

"Bang... Bang..."

Andy was about to say something, but a sudden knock on the door interrupted him.

"Who is it?" retorted the Duke of Gna.

"It's me, my lord, that you want tea. Outside the door, Yaheng's voice came from talking quickly.

"Come in!" said the Duke of Gna, who had already reached the door as he sat up from his couch and opened the door, "just give it to me." As he spoke, the Duke snatched the tray from Ahyon's hand...

Duke Gna personally served tea to Andy, and then sat down across from Andy.

The aroma of the tea seemed to dispel the Duke's exhaustion, making his tired eyes brighten up a lot, and he motioned for Andy to taste it, "You can sober up." ”

Andy silently picked up the teacup, gently blowing the boiling heat, he took a sip, and a characteristic fragrance instantly exploded in his mouth, and then down his throat to his stomach.

Gna looked at his son quietly, and after a few minutes, the Duke put down the teaglass, the shallow wrinkles at the corners of his eyes slightly raised, and it was obvious that he was thinking about how to communicate with his son after nine years of absence.

"I heard you're now Pedy's henchman?"

Obviously, Duke Gna didn't know how to get along with his son at all, and his first words after a long silence made Andy subconsciously begin to resist.

"Attendant?" "Andy abruptly stood up from his seat, hot tea splashing onto the leather ring armor he had just replaced, "How did I become Cousin Pedy's attendant?"

"If it's not for the attendant, why are you going to hang around that kid all day?" "Duke Gerner got up and pressed Andy the shoulders with a pair of large hands, making him sit down again, "And, what's going on with your paladin course?"
