Feeling the countless gathered eyes, Artoria did not feel any discomfort, she slowly walked up to the high platform, and then generously walked towards the stage with a standard aristocratic etiquette, the demeanor cultivated by the orthodox aristocratic etiquette since childhood made everything impeccable.

"It's her!" secretly bowed his head to Artoria, and the muse's gaze only stayed on her for a moment, and then he took it back, so to speak, and walked away.

By this time, Wally had already moved out of the way, and Artoria walked to the center of the high platform, and began to speak: "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much for being here for this banquet. ”

"I'm Artoria Lane. ”

"I am very honored to be able to come to Deira...... during this experience."

With a crisp and heroic voice, Artoria smoothly changed the subject, praising the unique customs, good architectural style and prosperous commercial trade of Deira City due to the gathering of merchants everywhere, and successfully won the favor of many nobles.

After a short speech, Artoria stepped down from the high platform, picked up a glass of wine, and skillfully dealt with many nobles who came up to talk, a faint smile reserved but enthusiastic, and a wandering eye that did not snub anyone.

Obviously, Artoria had prepared a thorough topic, and soon extended it to the special scenery on the Northland Plateau and the similar but different customs, and before she knew it, Artoria had been recognized by many nobles......

At least the muse clearly found that the eyes of many aristocratic young men around him were already flickering uncertainly, and he could know what they were thinking without thinking.

"Hum ......"

Sneering in his heart, Muse has no interest in telling these guys whose brains have been burned out by the soaring male hormones that Artoria is not an innocent girl!

Due to her special status and the orthodox aristocratic education she received since childhood, her banquet experience is definitely not inferior to that of any nobleman present, and she can be said to be handy in how to deal with these guys.

However, it was quite pleasant to watch those people with ideas bang their heads in front of Artoria's airtight iron plate......

At least that's how the muse feels now......

"Hey, Muse, don't you want to go up and meet Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

"That's Her Royal Highness the princess of that powerful empire in the north. ”

"Maybe it's too late, and you won't have a chance. ”

Just as the muse took another sip of the juice in his hand and watched with a little interest as many young aristocratic men walked back in a daze, little Jacob, who was standing beside him, suddenly squeezed his eyes at the muse, and said with a playful look on his face.

Waving his hand, the muse showed a helpless smile: "Of course I want to get to know Her Royal Highness the noble princess." ”

"But as you can see, I'm not the only one who has this idea. ”

Pointing to the large crowd around Artoria, the muse continued:

"I don't think it's a good time to come up and talk. ”

"When Her Royal Highness is surrounded by such a large group of people, it is impossible for Her Royal Highness to be in the mood to know anyone. ”

"It's you ...... instead"

The smile on Muse's face suddenly took on a hint of urgency.

"Romantic by nature, basically spend most of the month in various Fengyue places in Deira City, known as the great love saint of countless girls' dream lovers. ”

"Why didn't you go into battle yourself, but encouraged me to go?"

Hearing the words of the muse, little Jacob suddenly showed a very helpless look on his face, and couldn't help but turn his head slightly, and cast his eyes secretly to Ace, who was talking warmly with several aristocratic women around him, and then quickly retracted it.

"Oh!"

"I get it......"

With a look of knowing everything I know, the muse patted little Jacob on the shoulder, his tone full of sympathy.

"Oh, muse, my friend, please don't mention it, let me forget it. ”

"You know, since my father and Eth's father set our marriage, I've been forbidden to go to places with all kinds of beauties. ”

"My dear little Funi, how I miss you......"

Listening to little Jacob's whispering bitter water in his ears, Muse couldn't say anything about such a family marriage, so he could only put the juice in his hand close to his mouth and gag his mouth......

As time passed, more and more examples of running into a wall in front of Artoria made many onlookers quietly dispel their thoughts, and the people who came forward to talk to her gradually became thin.

At this time, the sound of music floating in the air suddenly changed, but it was already the dance part of the banquet, and many aristocratic men and women who hugged each other and danced were really pleasing to the eye, attracting people's attention and toasting to it.

Of course, Artoria breathed a sigh of relief, after all, it was quite difficult to deal with so many conversations, and she was not one of those people who liked the feeling of being in the limelight, so she couldn't wait for a while to be able to stay quietly now.

Using the excuse that she needed something to eat, she pushed away a few young men of the nobility who were still not giving up, and Artoria quickly made her way through the crowd to a long table.

After putting down the wine that had barely touched her hand, she picked up a glass of juice instead, and at the same time skillfully picked out a plate of delicacies, and sat down quietly at the dining table next to her.

In just a moment, Artoria had finished the food in front of her with swift but graceful movements, and after drinking the juice from the cup, her eyes wandered around, as if searching for something.

Suddenly, a white handkerchief was handed to Artoria, who took it, thinking it was from the waiter, and wiped some crumbs of food from the corners of her mouth.

"Your Royal Highness, may I ask if my handkerchief is effective in solving the small problem you are facing?"

A clear voice suddenly sounded beside her, causing Artoria to pause, and at this time, she realized that the handkerchief in her hand not only had fine and delicate embroidery, but even the corners were decorated with gold and silver threads, which was obviously not an "ordinary napkin" as she imagined.

When Artoria turned her head, she realized that at some point, a young man in a simple sky-blue mage robe was already standing beside her, with a faint smile and gentle eyes, exuding a very peaceful temperament.
