Chapter Sixty-Four: Joffrey's Invitation
As soon as Regner's words came out, Alex felt the temperature in the room drop below freezing.
Nima, your help is to let Anne help her rival beautify, Nima, do you know how to write the word 'death'? You certainly don't know! But you will definitely write 'to die', right? Because you are dying! Let Annie help her rival beautify! You can also say this! Is it your big heart or Anne's big heart? Provoked Annie, she will destroy us both in a matter of minutes, do you believe it? Do you believe it? You still think I am cheap just now! Now I think you are cheap! It's worthy of being the first slut selected by the guild, you call it Immortal and Happy!" Alex mentally pulled Regner's shoulders and shook him desperately, and spat on his face.
But now he was afraid that his unintentional actions would provoke the Frost Maiden, so he didn't move like a statue. Quietly waiting for Anne Lot's reaction.
Regner seemed to know that he was suspected of killing him, so he seemed very nervous. The boy stood a little cramped in front of Annelot, not daring to look at the girl.
Time seemed to freeze in the room, but the deathly silence was so hard for Alex every minute and every second. Just as he was on the verge of breaking down, Anne Lot finally spoke.
"I don't know wishing. Anne Lott said.
"But you're a mage, and you're a rare super genius. So, I think you might be able to find some more effective way to do it with your understanding of magic, and if you can't, I don't think anyone will. And, even if you can't, at least by level eighteen, you can still use the Wishing Technique to help Erin, and I only hope you can promise me to help her now. Although there is a suspicion of sycophancy, most people will not deny Regner's statement, if even Anne Lot is not a super genius, I am afraid that there will be no super genius in this world.
"......" Anne Lot did not answer immediately, but looked at Regner with a flat look, and no one knew what she was thinking at this time.
"Erin is my most important friend, and I can't let her live in the shadows all the time. Even if she can still be positive and optimistic now, I am afraid that one day she will not be able to hold on. So, please, this matter is very important to me!" Regner said sincerely, and there was even a hint of pleading in his tone, if even Annelot didn't help Erin, then what mage would bother with this poor ugly half-elf girl?
Anne Lot was in a trance, and Regner's words touched her memory. Although Regnar has the impression that he is not shy and smiling all day long, he is actually a very arrogant teenager, because he rarely asks others. At least in the three years that Annelot and Regner were together, Regner had only begged her once.
That time was half a year ago, when something bad happened to the Jehart family. Although Regner was alone in front of a high-ranking mage, he still asked Anello to take care of herself, take the seriously injured Eniris first, and save her. That was the only time Anne Lott remembered, and now, it was supposed to be the second time.
"Did you ask me twice for someone else......? Woman?" Anne Lot's mind suddenly popped into such a thought, which startled the usually cold Frost Maiden. But she quickly adjusted her mood quietly, and then nodded: "Okay." ”
"What ?!!!!" was not Regna the first to cry out, but Alex. He thought that Anne Lot would be furious at this time, and then directly kill Regner, and even he began to think about what to do with the MI after Ragner's death. Outcome...... The result was really unexpected, the girl was unexpectedly calm, and agreed to Regner's request without even too much prevarication.
"Ah!!!!! girl, are you crazy? That girl's name is Erin, that's Erin! Regner's childhood sweetheart, a childhood friend who has supported each other since she was a child! Emotionally speaking, Regner attaches absolutely no less importance to her than you! You help her like this? You are helping your rival in love, do you know? Normally, you don't have a big deal except for the cold feeling, but now I realize that I can't understand your thinking pattern at all!" Alex shook Annelot's shoulder and complained on the spiritual level again, but this time even on the spiritual level, he didn't dare to spit on the girl's face......
"Uncle, what are you screaming all of a sudden? Regner was really startled by Alex's voice.
"You two scared me to ......" Alex couldn't complain anymore.
"And you promise me?" Regner turned in confirmation.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just trying to help Erin, it's none of your business!" Anne Lott said coldly.
"It's okay, it's okay, as long as you're willing to help her. Regner knew Annelot's awkwardness, especially when she was still angry with herself, and she was unlikely to admit that she was doing her a good job. Therefore, it is good to let the Frost Girl agree, and he doesn't dare to think too much about the rest.
Anne Lott snorted coldly, then ignored Regner.
"Okay, that's basically all there is to it, stinky boy, you go out first, don't miss the dinner in the evening. Alex said.
"Okay. Regner nodded, then greeted Anne Lot, and after receiving a hard response from the girl, Ragner immediately burst into a rage and walked out.
"Do you really want to help Erin?" Alex asked.
"Shouldn't you help a poor little girl?" asked Annelot.
"Well, you know what I mean, girl, why deny what you're thinking?" Alex was a little helpless.
"I know what I think. Anne Lott said coldly.
"Ah, whatever!" Alex shrugged, knowing that Ann Lotte had always been like this, and there was no point in saying more here. But then, he thought of something else: "By the way, if that's right, Joffrey should be inviting you to be his magical assistant in public tonight." How are you going to deal with it?
"No, I don't. Anne Lot replied lightly, and then left the room without further ado.
"Elders are not easy to do, they always have to wipe the butts of young people......" Alex looked at Annelot's back and couldn't help but smile wryly. But after a while, he changed to a lewd expression and muttered, "But if it's Anne's little ass...... It's good to rub more. ”
When Regner found Kordak, the guy was showing off some of the magical equipment he had acquired to Goethe and Albert.
With a faint smile on his face, Goethe congratulated Kordak. Alberon pestered Kordak, demanding that his equipment be exchanged for Kordark's enchanted longbow.
"Don't think about it, I'm using it for my wife. Kordak certainly refused without hesitation.
"Then how about me being your wife?" Alberon was cheeky: "There are muscles, and they will warm the bed!"
The three of them said in unison: "Get out!
......
The dinner party began at five o'clock in the afternoon, and Regner had never seen such a lavish dinner. A wide variety of exquisite dishes are displayed on the table, and the top red wines that have been stored for more than 10 years are also available in unlimited quantities. Regnar's mouth watered as he entered the dining room, and he and Kordaq exchanged a glance, and then the two of them pounced on the food like hungry wolves.
"I say, Lord Regner. Goethe couldn't stand it anymore, he poked Regner and whispered: "After all, this is the palace, you better pay attention to the image." ”
"Hey, I don't want to be like them!" Regner waved his oily palm, "Eat and drink, otherwise what am I doing here?"
"That can't be said, this is the basic etiquette of a nobleman, and you will still need it when you take over the MI in the future. Goethe said, then he pointed to Kordak, who was motionless with his back to him, and said, "Look at Monsieur Kordak, he has not eaten like this to you...... Well...... Eat to the teeth and claws. ”
"Regener, apparently unconvinced, shouted, "Boss!"
"Huh?" Cordak turned his head, and Goethe realized that the creature had not moved because he was trying to chew his food, and that the creature had both of his cheeks stuffed, and that he was holding a bare turkey leg bone in his hand, and that it seemed that he had brought all the meat to his mouth in one bite.
"You know how I learned to eat physically, right?" Regner said and ignored Goethe, and continued to wave his oily hands and began to feast.
"......" Goethe was speechless, and he could only leave Regna's side in silence, lest others think that he was in league with these two unpromising fellows.
Annelot glanced at Regner from afar, and couldn't help frowning at his unsightly appearance. Joffrey had wanted to invite her as his female companion tonight, but Anne Lott refused, and she would have to refuse him again later, and she didn't care if she offended the prince.
It was already halfway through the dinner, and then Joffrey clapped his hands and quieted everyone down.
After making sure that all eyes were on it, Joffrey said, "As you can see, this dinner is hosted by me Joffrey on his own behalf. Joffrey would like to express his gratitude for your willingness to attend this dinner, and I hope that my hospitality will be satisfactory to you. ”
After speaking, the eldest prince raised his crystal glass, and then drank the little red wine that was left. Everyone on the field also hurriedly raised their glasses, and then took two sips of grunt.
"I, Joffrey, was born into a royal family, but I have a hobby. Joffrey finished his drink and continued, "I love to make friends, especially with powerful people. And you're all the best players in the tournament, so I'm really glad to have you all today! And since you're here for this dinner, at least I, Joffrey, will be my friends. ”
"Your Royal Highness the Prince is polite, it is an honor for us to serve His Royal Highness. A middle-aged mage who was closer to Joffrey hurriedly said, Annelot knew that person, he was also a member of the Court Mage Guild, his name was Yumir, and he was the top eight finalists of this tournament.
According to Annelot's impression, this Yumir was mediocre in strength, but shrewd and quite bold, and a typical opportunist.
"Very good!" Joffrey nodded with satisfaction when he saw such a scene, "In addition, I think everyone also knows that I am a magician, a high-level mage. I've been having some problems studying magic lately, so I'd like to recruit a magician to be my personal assistant and talk to me about magic. I don't know, is there any Mr. or Miss Mage who thinks they can do it?"
"......" Many people were stunned for a moment, they didn't seem to understand why Joffrey suddenly brought up this matter.
But there are also those who have quick brains, such as the Yumir just now, who opened his mouth and asked, "I wonder what kind of problem His Royal Highness the Prince is encountering?"
"Frost spell issues, I'm having problems with the control of the Frost Elemental for some spells. Specifically, it's hard for me to find the balance of the Frost Elemental within the circle. Although the teacher had instructed me many times, I still couldn't release those eighth-level frost spells stably. And the teacher can't follow me every day, so I wanted to have an assistant to discuss this with me. Joffrey said with a smile.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness the Prince, the eighth-level frost-based spell is indeed beyond our comprehension, and we probably won't be able to help. Yumir looked regretful, but he rolled his eyes and continued, "But I think Miss Annelot may be able to help you." She's a mage specializing in frost spells, and she's also a recognized genius of the Empire, and I think she's capable of helping you explore the mysteries of magic. ”
ps: I'm sorry to everyone, I accidentally found out that I missed a sheet tonight, and this is the real sixty-four. Now it's been made up, huh..... As compensation, of course, it is free. So today will be the third watch.
