Looking at the nobles at the banquet chatting in groups of three or five relaxed, occasionally casting a few scrutinizing glances, Du Yuhan rolled his eyes helplessly.

On the contrary, Kevin, who has accompanied Noyce in and out of various high-class places since he was a child, is leisurely, pulling Du Yuhan to taste the special snacks at the banquet, and explaining various interesting facts about the Al continent for him.

"This kind of cake is called mugwort jujube cake, which is ground from the associated plants of the mugwort tree. Due to the preciousness of the ingredients, people are rarely willing to make zuò, and only on important occasions will they bring it to entertain guests. ”

The pale green pastry is soft and glutinous and sweet, and the shape is delicate and good-looking under the skillful hands of the chef, Du Yuhan couldn't help but taste a few more bites.

"And what about this banana-flavored one?"

"I don't know what a banana is, but it's a peach tree, a pastry made from the juice of unripe fruits. Peaches are endemic to the Bastinian Islands, blooming in spring, and only non-flowering stamens will eventually bear fruit. ”

"How many fruits can a tree have?"

"About five or six."

"Hmm...... What about this peanut? ”

"This is the bear bean, the seed of the rhizome of the dead willow tree. Mainly—"

Just as the two were eating food, a slightly excited male voice sounded from behind them.

"Excuse me, is your Excellency Mr. Du Yuhan?"

Du Yuhan turned around suspiciously, only to see a man in his twenties standing in front of him, his hands nervously tugging at his sleeves, and staring at him with burning eyes. The most bizarre thing is that although this person looks like an ordinary waiter at a glance, if you look closely, you will find that the way he wears his dress is very strange.

Du Yuhan frowned secretly.

Who the hell is this man......

"I am."

"Ah, Your Excellency, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Realizing that his voice was too loud, the waiter hurriedly lowered his voice, but the excitement on his face couldn't be suppressed, and even his tone became trembling, "I have admired a master like you since I was a child, and I also want to become a modeler...... This is the first time I have seen Your Excellency, and I feel that I am so happy that I am dying! I-"

"I'm glad to meet you, Your Excellency." Seeing that he had begun to speak incoherently, Du Yuhan smiled and whispered softly, "I don't know what Your Excellency is called?" ”

"Name, name, ah......" clinker, the young man didn't dare to say it for a long time, so he could only look at Du Yuhan and laugh a few times.

It was expected that it might be the strict rank regulations of the upper class nobles, so Du Yuhan didn't ask any more questions, and continued to talk about it on a different topic.

The young man was obviously very happy to meet the advanced modeler, and although the conversation was a little cramped, when talking about the topic of modeling, he became more eloquent. It can be seen that he has a very strong interest in modeling. However, from his self-report, he learned that because his family was poor since he was a child, he did not have the conditions to systematically learn modeling, so he could only explore it by himself in his spare time.

Du Yuhan expressed his appreciation for this.

On this continent, modelling is a highly regarded profession, and many people study with the sole intention of getting promoted and making a fortune, which is understandable. But it was rare for someone to be purely interested, which made him very happy, and he couldn't help but talk a little more.

Just as several people were talking happily, an arrogant male voice came from the side. "I want a drink, why don't you pour it for me?"

The waiter was shocked when he heard this, and he didn't dare to look at the man, so he promised to leave quickly.

The two looked up, only to see two or three people dressed as nobles coming over, led by a middle-aged man with a bloated figure, and when he saw Kevin's appearance, a touch of surprise flashed in his eyes. Then he looked Du Yuhan up and down, and when his eyes touched the white bracelet on his left wrist, the corners of his mouth raised a disdainful smile.

Glancing at the look of the aristocrats around him, Du Yuhan raised his eyebrows without a trace.

Their location was in a corner, and no one would notice it compared to the nobles who were in a circle of three or five, unless someone came to look for them.

Well, there are those who came to stir up trouble on purpose.

Seeing that the two of them didn't say anything after looking at them, only bowing their heads and continuing to taste the food, the bloated man was obviously very dissatisfied with this. He tugged at the corners of his mouth and laughed at his companion, "Have you heard? Recently, a high-level model artist came to the city, and for this reason, the city lord made an exception and opened the city gate for him. ”

"Oh, that's it! This is because the city lord ordered the closure of the city in order to protect the inhabitants of the city from the erosion of the shadow gods! If something goes wrong, who's responsible? The man behind him immediately spoke in a weird manner, but his words were full of sarcasm.

Shadow God? Didn't President Ringston say that he was guarding against bandits? Why did you change it again?

Du Yuhan took a sip of wine without a trace.

"You don't have to worry about this, after all, there are high-level model artists here, and what bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods stand aside." The other nobleman laughed unceremoniously, glancing at the two of them a few times.

"It's just that I didn't think that the high-level model artist was actually ignored in the banquet, and he was reduced to the point of huddling with the waiter to keep warm." With that, the bloated man laughed out loud unceremoniously.

Du Yuhan didn't pay attention to this kind of provocation at all, but he was a little curious about the identity of the other party.

Although he is an outsider, how can he say that the identity of a high-level professional is there. This fat man dared to run to provoke when he knew it, is this considered a lack of life and death? Besides, I don't have a conflict of interest with him, how can it be all of a sudden?

Well? Conflicting interests?

He paused, his eyes down on the other's left wrist, a rounded bracelet reflecting a pale green light.

Really......

Sensing Yu Han's gaze, the bloated fat man's face sank, and he quickly pulled down his sleeves, "What are you looking at?!" ”

Glancing at the other party, Du Yuhan did not reply, but there was a playful smile in his eyes.

Seeing this, the bloated man suddenly became angry, "Don't think that befriending the guild leader is a big deal, that guy from Lingston is just a mid-level and mid-level waste, I, Ruskin, will take his place sooner or later!" ”

Seeing that the other party seemed to have a tendency to get out of control, the aristocratic man behind him hurriedly spoke up to stop him, "Your Excellency Ruskin, Mr. Ringston is the confidant of the city lord after all, I'm afraid of this-"

"What can I do with the city lord?" Although Ruskin was still annoyed, the name of "City Lord" was still somewhat intimidating, and he calmed down unconsciously, "Since the old city lord passed away, no one knows that the city lord is just a puppet, and the Lord Regent is really in charge behind the scenes-"

"Your Excellency!"

“…… Hum! ”

glanced at Du Yuhan fiercely, and Ruskin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a low and solemn male voice.

"The lord of the city has arrived!"

The lobby fell silent for a moment, and everyone's eyes turned to the curtain corridor in the center. As the curtain slowly rose, a young man dressed in gorgeous clothes strode through the corridor.

The young man was followed by two people, one of whom was none other than Ringstone, the guild leader who had come to the door to greet them before. The other is a middle-aged man dressed in a gorgeous costume, and he is holding a beautiful young woman by his side. The medal on his body shows that this person is by no means an ordinary royal nobleman.

"Lord of the Castle!"

All the guests in the lobby bowed and saluted, and Du Yuhan was naturally no exception, so he didn't notice that Kevin beside him had a trace of unnatural stiffness in his body the moment the city lord and his party came in.

These people ......

Kevin narrowed his eyes slightly.

After all the etiquette has passed, the atmosphere in the lobby has regained its previous enthusiasm.

With the participation of the city lord, the attention of those nobles naturally chased after the city lord, or rather, followed the middle-aged man behind the city lord.

Du Yuhan found that the young man known as the city lord looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, and in the face of the deliberate flattery and flattery of the guests, he maintained a cold and stiff demeanor throughout the whole process, and seemed to be very impatient and bored with this dinner. I only occasionally talked to the middle-aged man, but most of them were also the other party who took the initiative to talk to him.

As for the middle-aged man, he was smiling all the way, eagerly communicating with the guests who came to greet him, and occasionally a nobleman raised a glass to the city lord, but he was also blocked by the other party without a trace, with a protective posture.

It seems that the middle-aged man is the regent in the other party's mouth, right?

Du Yuhan stuffed a piece of pastry into his mouth while thinking, and Kevin brought him a glass of wine for him.

Well, it tastes good.

"Hmph, it's useless for you to look at it again." Seeing that Du Yuhan's gaze had been following that side, Ruskin thought that he had some ideas to slap the city lord again, "David's city lord is just a stinky child, since the old city lord died, he has fallen into a state of madness, and he always feels that there are shadow forces outside the city that want to attack the city, so he ordered the city gate to be blocked three times and twice, making the people's lives miserable. ”

"Not really! Now every time I go out of the city to run errands, I have to toss for a while. The other nobleman seemed to feel deeply, and couldn't help but complain, "If he hadn't had a good uncle to clean up the mess for him, I'm afraid this throne would have changed long ago." ”

"Hey, what a hard work, Lord Regent. The old city lord did his best to defend the frontier during his reign, and after David succeeded to the throne, he did his best to assist his growth, and the clinker city lord was still ......"

"In my opinion, it is better for Lord Regent to ascend to the throne himself, but it is still the blessing of the people of the city."

"Not necessarily, I've heard the Marquis mention that the other city lords have a very subtle attitude towards the Lord Regent, and it seems that they don't support his ascension because of territorial issues."

"It's about those suspected Shadow Cult altars found outside the city?"

"That's nonsense! How could Lord Regent have anything to do with those evil sects? ”

"But I've heard ...... again"

Listening to the words of those people, Du Yuhan felt as if he was watching an exotic version of the court fighting drama, what kind of party forces, other city support, people's hearts, brokerage and trade, etc. Kevin seemed to be very interested in these secrets, and couldn't help but □□ to offer some of his own opinions.

Du Yuhan has never been very interested in these curves, and only stayed quietly to the side to eat. However, during the conversation, he became somewhat interested in the "David's city lord, who had fallen into madness due to his father's early death."

Doll Emperor......
