However, there were so many people with that name that Renard couldn't remember where he heard it.

As Earl Mackinto was entertaining other distinguished guests, he asked the guest next to him, "Who is Viscount Neil, and is he famous?"

Hearing Renard's inquiry, the little nobleman couldn't help but look at him in surprise: "It's not just famous, it's just too famous." ”

The expression of the little nobleman seemed to say: You have never heard of such a famous person, you jumped out of the mountains, right?

The guest next to him asked rhetorically, "Haven't you heard the name of Neal, the Banquet Maniac?"

The title of Banquet Maniac is very interesting, and Renard was immediately aroused: "I just came to the royal capital, and I haven't heard anyone mention it. ”

The little nobleman showed a clear expression and said with a smile: "If you stay in the royal capital for two years, I am afraid you will know how famous this Viscount Neil is." ”

Then he began to recount in detail the glorious deeds of this Viscount Neil, which were truly earth-shattering and weeping.

The Viscount Neil was a minor nobleman who had studied magic at the Academy of Magic, and his brother had driven him out of the family after his father died unexpectedly more than a decade ago.

So the Viscount Neil, who had no ability to survive, ended up on the streets, begging and cheating.

Later, he couldn't get along in the king's capital, so he ran to the remote mountains to survive.

Coincidentally, the Devil's Calamity broke out.

The family manor was destroyed by the demons, and the brothers and nephews who inherited the title were all killed by the demons, and the Viscount Neil was lucky to get the inheritance.

The next thing is simple, Viscount Neil is used to seeing the hot and cold world, in order to prevent himself from falling into the previous fate, he began to frantically make friends with powerful people, and desperately drill camp in his career.

What's the best way to make friends with the powerful?

Therefore, this Viscount Neil is always invited, and the nobles are naturally very welcome to this, after all, attending certain banquets is to give gifts, such as birthday banquets and wedding banquets.

However, Viscount Neil is an iron rooster, which may have something to do with his experience of exile in the first half of his life, and he has a considerable attachment to money.

Gift-giving? non-existent!

So the nobles gradually began to dislike this guy who ate white food, and after a while

After that, no one wanted to entertain him anymore.

However, the nobles completely underestimated the thickness of each other's skin, don't you come yourself if you don't invite others?

Then the situation that made people laugh and cry happened, no matter which powerful family Viscount Neil heard of a banquet, he would come uninvited.

He also realizes that it is not good to be empty-handed, so he also prepares gifts, but they are things that are thrown away in the garbage dump and no one picks them up.

For example, unknown feathers, rusty dinner spoons, broken straw hats, and so on.

It's okay to send these, he still has to talk about what he doesn't have.

For example, this is the feathers of the Suzaku bird, the sacred bird of the East, this is the spoon used by the Pope, and this is the straw hat worn by His Majesty Rochelle.

The devil knows where they were found, but at least it's certain that the discolored feather was dyed with goose feathers.

The little nobleman said that he was a little speechless at the end: "Viscount Neil's face thickness is simply beyond the magician's magic book, if it weren't for the fact that there is still a little blood of the Cronin family in his body, he doesn't know how many beatings he has received." ”

When the two were communicating, a deliberately suppressed voice suddenly came from the side, and anyone could hear the excitement mixed in this voice: "It's coming! Viscount Neil is here!"

When Renard and the little nobleman next to him heard this, their eyes immediately searched for the crowd.

Before I saw Viscount Neil, the other party's voice came first: "Oh! my dear cousin Quentin......

The voice is gruesome, and it is simply contrived to the extreme.

Renard shuddered, turned his head to look in the direction from which the voice came, and then he froze.

It was an extremely ugly middle-aged man, with a large head, but a very thin body, two pieces of horizontal flesh on his cheeks, and inverted triangular eyes, which made him not only ugly, but also exude an obscene light.

Neal Neal Grand Magician?

it! Isn't that the liar he met in Stonemasons!

Just before Lei Ye could react, Count Mackinto, who was in the distance, gave himself two mouths first, and only after fanning himself did he say angrily: "I knew that I should arrange more guards, but I am afraid that this time my father will be angry again." ”

With that, he hurriedly apologized to the surprised VIP beside him, and then walked briskly towards Neil, and finally even began to trot.

The little nobleman beside Renard said in a gloating tone: "There is a good show to watch now, I don't know what Marquis Quentin will do with this shameless guy." ”

The others chimed in: "I just saw Viscount Neil holding a box in his hand, and I don't know what strange things it contains. ”

"I think it's a quill made of phoenix feathers. "Maybe it's the pearl of the deep sea. "Thousands of years ago, it may have been. "Most likely, it's a patchwork hymn. "Haha!"

At the mention of the hymn, everyone laughed out loud.

The smile on Marquis Quentin's face was visibly stiff when he heard Viscount Neil's voice.

When he saw the other party's figure, the corners of his eyes twitched twice unconsciously.

When he saw Viscount Neil holding the gift box in his hand, his expression completely darkened.

None of the gifts from the people around him caught the Marquis Quentin's eye, and even the gifts from Lord Lei didn't interest him much, but the Viscount Neil did, even for reasons that were different from what people expected.

Fortunately, Count Mackinto reacted quickly enough and successfully stopped the opponent when he was about to approach the Marquis of Quentin.

Then he reprimanded in an unceremonious tone: "Viscount Neil, my father is talking to your distinguished guests about things, if you have any problems, please talk about it after the banquet." ”

Seeing the person standing in front of him, Viscount Neil feigned surprise and said, "It turned out to be my dear cousin Mackinto, how are you doing, you haven't held a banquet for a while." ”

Count Mackinto cursed in his heart, with this guy here, where would he dare to hold a banquet with great fanfare, otherwise he would not let this guy lose all his face.

In order not to let the guests see the joke, he had to grab Neil's sleeve, pretend to be intimate and give a hug, and then leaned into the other person's ear and said, "If you find a place to sit down now, and be quiet until the banquet is over, I will be fine." ”

Viscount Neil tilted his head undeniably, and immediately bypassed Count Mackinto, and continued to walk towards the Marquis Quentin, while agreeing: "No problem, when I finish sending the gift, I will do it." ”

Seeing this, Count Mackinto was about to collapse, he grabbed the other party's sleeve, lowered his voice and roared: "Damn, don't go over, you just need to find a place to sit." ”
