"Please come in. ”

Listening to the sound outside the door, Adil interrupted his thoughts, turned to look at the door, and then spoke.

The voice fell, and with a creak, the wooden door opened, and a maid in a long red dress walked in from outside.

The maid looked very beautiful, dressed in red, and looked at Adil who was looking at her at this time, and was a little overwhelmed.

"What's the matter?" said Adiel's voice.

Looking at the maid in front of him, who didn't look very old, Adiel's face became a little gentler and he looked approachable.

"Ah... Knight of Adiel..."

Looking at Adier, the maid said a little nervously: "Princess Alina asked you to set off to go to the banquet with her." ”

"Are you going to the feast..." Hearing this, Adil was a little surprised, and then he reacted in his heart: "By the way, today is the day of the royal family's banquet." ”

The canonization of knights, in the Maran Empire, is a grand event once every five years.

And after each canonization, according to the custom, the royal family will invite many nobles in the country to the banquet to promote exchanges between all parties.

As the Knight of the Sky and the second place runner-up in this competition, Adil is also within the scope of the banquet, so this time he will go to the palace with Alina.

These things were all explained by Alina in the previous time, but Adil was busy with cultivation during this time, so he forgot a little.

"Go back. Thinking of this, looking at the maid in front of him, Adil nodded lightly: "Help me tell the princess, and I will go to her later." ”

"Yes. The maid in front of her saluted lightly, glanced at Adil secretly, and then retreated with a blushing face.

"It's so nostalgic. ”

Looking at the back of the maid in the distance, Adil shook his head and walked towards the room.

Because he was going to participate in the banquet next, he changed into a decent black dress, put down the long sword that he had always worn on his body, and walked outside.

His place was not far from Alina's, and because of the constant need for contact, it could be said that it was very close, and it was not long before he reached the place.

On a platform, Alina stood there with Arnum and a few other knights, and when she saw Adil coming, she glanced at him a few times, and then said with a smile: "Yes, your clothes today make you look much better." ”

"Uh..." For this, Adil didn't know how to take it for a while, just stood in place with a smile and said a word.

"Alright, let's go. Looking at Adil, Alina stopped making fun of him, and rode directly on a horse beside her, ready to go.

Watching Alina's movements, Adil also rode a tall black wildebeest beside him, followed Alina, and slowly walked towards her as she walked forward.

The roads along the way are wide and there are few people, so there is no crowding like other streets.

Adil was not surprised by this.

The nobility has its own aristocratic identity, and the whole road in front of them is a road specially set up for the nobility, and there is no one else along the way except for some nobles.

Along the way, seeing the team of Alina and others, the surrounding nobles gave way one after another, and some of them who were close would stop and say hello to Alina and others.

For these nobles who took the initiative to show affection, Alina's performance was also very kind, no matter who the other party was, she would stop talking to the other party for a while, and she couldn't see her usual cold posture at all.

Somewhere this is starting to change.

When she saw a group of knights galloping in front of her, Alina's face suddenly turned cold and became indifferent.

The originally wide road began to become noisy, and when I saw the group of knights running wildly in front of me, the nobles advancing in front of them gave way one after another, and some of them didn't have time to get out of the way, and even were directly squeezed out of the way by the other party, and the style looked extremely domineering.

Standing beside Alina on horseback, watching this scene, Adil frowned slightly, looking a little displeased.

"It's Cannado. On the side, Arnum spoke, with a strong sense of disbelief in his words: "This guy is getting more and more arrogant. ”

"No way. Adier's face was calm: "The champion of the knight competition does have arrogant capital. ”

"If you use all your strength, you may not..." Looking at Adier, Arnum was a little unwilling.

"Well, that's no longer necessary. Adil smiled, but he was very calm about this: "The matter has passed, there is no need to dwell on anything." ”

This is the topic of debunking.

After continuing on the road for a while, they came to a splendid palace.

This is a palace that covers a large area, and with the strength of Adiel's current spiritual power, if it spreads out with all his strength, it is impossible to know the specific scope of this palace, which can be seen that it is afraid.

And in this palace, the nobles who came and went walked towards one of the palaces with their daughters during their walks.

"There are so many people. ”

Looking at the scene of people coming and going, Adil sighed: "Didn't you say that the people invited to this banquet are all big nobles?"

"After all, the city of Catutan is the royal capital, and there are many nobles who are qualified to participate in the banquet. On the side, Alina spoke: "These nobles, as well as those knights with good strength, are all invited, plus the wives and daughters of these people, naturally there are a lot of people." ”

"Of course, although there are many people, there are also many broken nobles among them. She smiled and pointed out to Adiel: "Although some nobles have a long history, they have been passed down to the present, and there is only an empty title left, and it is nothing when it comes to strength. ”

"Speaking of which, Adil you don't have a wife yet, do you. ”

She changed the topic and talked to Adiel: "Are you interested in finding one here?"

"With your current strength and reputation, I believe that many nobles are thinking of marrying their daughters to you. ”

Listening to Alina's words, Adil was stunned for a moment, not thinking of this aspect at all.

For some reason, when he heard this topic, Edith's shadow suddenly flashed in his mind.

It was his fiancée, who must have been waiting in the Elf King's Capital at this time, waiting for him to finish this experiment and go out to meet her.

"No need. He smiled, then said, "I have someone I like." ”

"Really? That's a pity. Alina was a little pity: "I originally wanted to introduce you to a few noble girls with noble status." ”

As they spoke, they continued on to the palace where the banquet was held.

The area of this hall is not too large compared to the outside, but there are hundreds of people sitting inside at this time.

In this group of people, Adil also saw many acquaintances.

In addition to the royal family members who Angli and Loris, such as Cladice, were also sitting in this hall at this time.

As the prince of Gounod, although his status is embarrassing, in terms of status, he is indeed qualified to participate in this banquet, so he was also invited.

At this moment, he was sitting in a corner, eating pastries alone, looking a little alone.

The surrounding nobles walked past him one by one, but they all passed by him as if they were hiding from the plague, and none of them dared to sit beside him.

Some nobles looked at him with subtle disdain and ridicule, and they didn't seem to have much affection for him.

"Why is it drinking here alone?"

Seeing that Cladis was alone, Adil walked up to him and looked at him and spoke.

"Teacher!"

Raising his head slightly, when he saw Adil in front of him, Kladis was a little surprised, and hurriedly got up: "Teacher, are your injuries already healed?"

"It's a little bit of a wound, but it's out of the way. Adil kept a smile on his face and said helplessly.

"Sooner or later, I will ask for it back for you, teacher. As if thinking of something, Kladys's eyes were cold, and he looked at Adil and reassured.

During the period after the game, he and Adil had no contact with him, and often came to the manor where Adil was to train.

Under Adiel's careful training, the changes in his body are also very good, and the strength in his body is almost changing every day, and by now, he is approaching the threshold of the Sky Knight.

This change made him grateful to Adil and at the same time, it also made him full of confidence and not afraid of any challenge.

"It's good that you have this heart. patted Cladis on the shoulder, sensing the other party's true emotions, Adil was also very relieved.

Professor Kladys, although he initially went to the other party's identity as a child of destiny, he admitted that he was also very attentive to teaching, and some things that were considered top secret from other knights did not have the slightest reservation about him.

After a while, he also regarded Kladys as half of his disciple.

"You stay here for now. ”

Looking at Alina behind him, he looked at Kladys in front of him and said, "Remember to be careful. ”

"I understand. Kladys nodded slightly, understanding.

After explaining a few things, Adil left Cladis and returned to Alina's side.

After a while, as time passed, the banquet began.

Around the hall, a melodious sound of music and singing sounded everywhere, with the unique low hissing style of the Maran Empire, constantly echoing around.

In front of me, some well-cultivated dancers are dancing inexplicably in front of them, and many of the movements look very beautiful, with the wonderful posture and appearance of those dancers, it looks like a beautiful scenery.

In the four corners of the hall, there are other performances, whether they are the masterful magic of the magicians or the exquisite performances of the circus.

All kinds of programs were screened here, which made all the guests present very engaged, and the atmosphere of the banquet was warm again and again.

After a while, the host of the banquet also appeared in front of Adil.

It was a middle-aged man dressed in a modest costume with a soft looking face, holding a scepter in his hand, and constantly explaining on the stage.

This middle-aged man's name is Dillard, and he is the only prince of the Malan Empire who is now left in the royal court, that is, the half-brother of this generation of Maran kings, the uncle of Alina and others.

As the only prince left in the royal court by King Maran, this Prince Dillard is naturally extraordinary, not only with his own outstanding talents, but also with amazing knightly talents.

According to Alina, more than ten years ago, her uncle was already a knight with a title, and now, his own strength may be even more terrifying.

This strength, combined with the identity and power of the other party, is definitely one of the best figures in the entire Maran Empire, even some top nobles with glorious knights, they must have enough respect for this prince.

"Ahhhh Look who I see..." A low, awkward voice came from afar.

Adil looked up and saw a tall, burly figure approaching from a distance.

Dressed in a wide knight's robe and holding a wine glass in his hand, Cannado was walking from a distance with a mocking smile on his face: "Come on, come on, you can be considered an opponent, let me toast you." ”

His tone was sarcastic, and the smile on his face was awkward, which made people feel uneasy at first sight, and subconsciously wanted to stay away from him.

Sitting silently in place, looking at Canado's appearance, Adil frowned secretly, but still raised the wine glass in front of him and drank the fruit wine in front of him.

"Not bad, not bad. Looking at Adiel's movements, Cannado smiled exaggeratedly: "Speaking of which, we haven't finished the last battle yet." ”

"It just so happens that there is a chance this time, why don't we just be in this place, how about we try it again?"

He looked at Adier, and the mockery on his face became more and more obvious: "By the way, it can also allow the nobles who come this time to appreciate the heroic appearance of our knights." ”

Hearing this, Rao Yidi had a good temper, and his heart was also angry.

No matter who you are, you will also be angry when you are repeatedly provoked by others.

What's more, the person who provoked in front of him was simply an ant that could be destroyed by raising his hands to Adil.

"Canado, don't go too far. Beside him, Alina's voice rang out.

Looking at Cannado in front of Adil, Alina's face was cold, and her eyes were fixed on each other, as if she were looking at a dead person.
