Rhine City, Castle of the Lords, Reception Banquet.

Murphy stared at the fine wine from the Bohr City Winery in the West, his eyes were scattered, and from the inside out, there was an aura of rejection from thousands of miles away, and it seemed that the eyes of the civilians and slaves who entered the city today had a great impact on him.

Several aristocratic ladies gathered around and whispered, pushing and shoving one of them, a blonde girl with a bookish appearance, who must have been a lady, and the girl kept shaking her head with a red face.

After a moment of deferral, the girl seemed to have decided something, walked up to Murphy's side, clasped the hem of her skirt with both hands, and mustered up the courage to speak to Murphy.

"The king... Hello Your Highness, my name is Rachel Blakeley, and I am the second, no, third daughter of the Marquis of Blakeley, can I ask you to dance together?"

After stumbling to speak, Rachel's face instantly turned red to her ears, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Murphy, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"Me?" Murphy came back to his senses to make sure that the girl had asked the wrong person, and seeing the girl bow her head and nod heavily, Murphy shook her head and said. "But I can't dance. ”

It is true that the royal family, unlike other nobles, requires the men of the royal family to exercise their bodies and train them in extraordinary strength from an early age. However, for Murphy himself in the past, he had 10,000 excuses to avoid training, so until Chen Luonan walked through, he was an idle and unlearned kid.

"No... It's okay, I can teach you. Rachel hurriedly stepped forward and said, and then felt that it seemed a little rude for her to do so, so she immediately lowered her head.

"Why did you come to dance with me? I don't think my reputation seems to be very good. Murphy placed his glass on the table, shook his head slightly, and looked sideways at the Marquis's daughter.

"I've heard Knight Ford tell me about your deeds of leading a leader in battle in the Secret Forest, which I admire, so I think that a prince who can lead a leader in battle and can do magic is not like the rumors. The little girl's face was red all the time, but she was not so nervous when she spoke, and the fourth prince didn't look like a bad person at all.

Ford Knight is such a big mouth. The corners of Murphy's mouth twitched unnaturally.

"Actually, the person who commanded that battle was not me, but Knight Ford, and you should worship him if you want to worship him. Murphy still politely refused.

Rachel didn't speak, blushing and biting her lower lip, her big eyes sparkling and looking at her expectantly.

"Okay, let's do a dance together. Looking into her eyes, Murphy couldn't bear to find any more reason to refuse, and held his forehead and agreed.

"Great!Ah, no, thank you, Your Highness the Prince. The little girl almost jumped up in excitement, and then quickly took the hem of her skirt and made a noble salute to Murphy, and then turned and ran to her little sisters.

Murphy smiled wryly, took a sip from the cup, and lowered his head again, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Your Royal Highness, you don't look very happy, did that girl just refuse you?" said Knight Ford, who came from the other end and quipped, that His Royal Highness did not appear to be superior along the way, but rather gave people an approachable feeling, so the knights were now happy to communicate with him.

"You guy, it's clear that you are in command of the battle, and you still preach everywhere that it is my credit, which makes me very annoyed. When Murphy saw that it was a Ford Knight, he vomited his bitterness, he had been mingling with the knights for the past few days, and it didn't hurt to joke with each other.

"A handsome prince, a magician from the royal family, a wise commander, a lord of a city, these keywords come together, what girl wouldn't be tempted? Ford Knight laughed.

"If you're a girl, I'd rather die than give in!" Murphy rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"Hahaha, the ball is about to begin, is His Royal Highness the Prince ready to deal with the wild bees and butterflies?" said Archduke Rhein, laughing.

He had already replaced his broken armor and put on a luxurious aristocratic attire, and the Rhine family medal on his chest showed his status as a grand duke.

At this time, he restrained the terrifying aura on his body and stood in front of Murphy with a smile on his face.

"To be honest, I'm not used to an occasion like this. Murphy smiled in response.

"It's okay, the enthusiasm of the noble ladies of the Rhine will help you get used to it. Grand Duke Rhine patted Murphy on the shoulder and laughed.

"Go, young people, the ball is on!" the Grand Duke of Rhine nudged Murphy forward and shoved Miss Rachel, who was shyly walking towards Murphy.

Rachel took Murphy's hand, looked up into his eyes, and said, "Your Royal Highness, I'll teach you to dance." ”

The smile on Murphy's face stiffened, and he gently took Rachel's soft hand.

The soft music in the banquet hall suddenly died down, and a moment later a burst of cheerful music replaced it, and the nobles led their female companions to the dance floor, surrounding them.

Murphy followed Rachel's movements and slowly moved, spinning, and dancing his body.

At the same time, he is also learning the jumping methods of the people around him

Gradually, his movements became faster and more skillful.

He slowly emptied himself and threw himself into the joyful dance.

Suddenly, those numb eyes appeared in his mind again.

He looked around, and the nobles around him dressed in silk and satin had turned into ragged commoners and slaves in his eyes.

They were either shackled or barefoot, and they gathered around them, staring at them with numb eyes.

"Down with the nobles! Down with the vampires! The nobles are moths! We don't need your protection......"

The crowd suddenly shouted, and the civilians' eyes were filled with anger, brandishing scythes, hoes, hammers, and hammers that they had taken out of nowhere, and they rushed towards Murphy in the middle.

Murphy panicked and hurried to run.

"Ahh

Rachel's exclamation woke Murphy up, and the civilian slaves around him vanished, and his own foot was on Rachel's foot.

"I'm sorry, I didn't jump well and stepped on you. Murphy hurriedly apologized.

"It's okay, beginners will inevitably be like this, I'll just go and take a break. Rachel clutched her feet and shook her head.

Murphy helped her to sit on a chair off the dance floor, but felt like she couldn't fit in with the cheer of the party anymore.

"I'm sorry to miss me. Murphy whispered.

He then left the ballroom under Rachel's watchful eye.

Seeing Murphy walking out of the banquet hall, the Simon knight, who was holding a wine glass and drinking red wine, hesitated for a moment, apologized to a noble lady next to him, and hurriedly went to the guard at the door to take out one of his personal short swords and followed.

Murphy, who walked out of the ballroom, slowly paced towards the castle's spire, where he looked down on the eastern and western parts of the Rhine as far as the eye could see.

The two main districts of the Rhine were the main residential areas of the aristocratic merchants, and even at night they were brightly lit, and even on the castle you could see the merchants' caravans preparing their goods and the nobles' carriages running around.

It's a lot of traffic, but it's orderly.

On the other hand, the north and south urban areas are just the opposite.

The two great towns of the north and south were pitch black, and only the places near the castle were lit up.

Looking at the stark contrast, Murphy sighed softly.
