Chapter 21: Her Birthday
The city lord's own strength has reached the master level, and being able to reach the master level at his age is enough to prove his excellence. Normally, 60 years old is reached, but he is now up to 50 years old, and I don't know if he reached the master level a few years ago. Sure enough, the genes are good, and the little witch must be inherited in this regard.
Before entering the courtyard, the lord of the castle ordered the guards to guard the door, expressing his trust in me in disguise. Damn, it's not so obvious, I'm not going to be grateful to you. I already have a certain understanding of the etiquette of this world, and here we attach great importance to the superiority and inferiority. But I can't do it if I grovel, no matter who you are, I just arched my hand and said, "Welcome to the Humble House, please sit in the house." He was amazed, but he didn't feel sorry for me, but just went into the house with me.
After the guest and host took their seats, the city lord brought up his intention and said: "The little girl Elsa is fortunate to worship under Renault's door, it is her blessing, Wangtianlong is strictly adjusted, don't care about her identity." ”
I had already thought about the answer to this question, and immediately replied: "The city lord misunderstood, although I promised to teach her martial arts, but I didn't mean to accept her as an apprentice. Aisha is very smart, I will try my best to teach her, please rest assured. ”
My answer sounded a little inexplicable, the city lord and the little witch looked at each other, and they couldn't understand the meaning of my words. Of course, I won't take the initiative to explain, do I tell them that I'm going to leave after a few days here? If you take her as a disciple, how can you leave at that time?
The city lord couldn't figure out the meaning of my words for a while, so he immediately changed the topic. said: "Since this is the case, I will not be reluctant, it is the little girl's blessing that is not enough." I wonder if Renault is free tonight? I would like to invite you to a dinner party at the mansion, and this time I am inviting young people, with whom you can mingle as much as you want. ”
It's true that I can't talk to the older people, but this city lord uncle has only seen me once, and then he found out. Sure enough, it's someone on the pastoral side, will there be any other purpose for inviting me this time? When I was on Earth, I read countless novels, and I had to pay 120,000 distractions to the so-called politicians, and if I wasn't careful, I would be sold by them. Therefore, I was very wary of this lord of the castle, and I forgot to answer it when I was so engrossed in it. Seeing that I was in a daze, the city lord didn't disturb me, but the little witch on the side was fluttering and shouted at me, "Hey, what's the matter with you?" Today is my sister's 20th birthday, and you still don't want to meet you if you invite you? ”
It turned out to be Yulia's birthday party, and it was good to meet the beauty, so she quickly replied: "I'm sorry, I was thinking about things just now, and I must be there tonight." ”
The little witch immediately gave me a roll of her eyes, as if to say: You men are like this, and you can't wait when it comes to my beautiful sister. Dizzy, I'm innocent, I really thought about it just now, otherwise I would have agreed a long time ago, wouldn't I not give the city lord face if I didn't go? I don't want to cause trouble.
The lord of the city was obviously very satisfied with my answer, and asked, "Renaud, I heard that you and Yulia met on the way back to the city, when you were coming out of the Loren Mountains, and you are also destined. I wonder if you have any thoughts on going out of the mountain this time? When a man is alive, when he crisscrosses the battlefield, makes contributions to the country, and leaves his name in history, are you willing to submit to my Southeast Army? With your talent and martial arts, it's no problem to be a captain. ”
Nonsense, of course I'm fine with being a captain, but I'm not rare. replied: "Thank you City Lord for your good intentions, I just came out of the mountain, and I don't know much about the outside world, so I just want to take a walk for the time being, and if I want to make contributions in the future, I will definitely come to Noah City to serve." ”
Everyone is a smart person, and I vaguely refused that he should be able to hear it, but said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, Tianlong is still very young, and it is good to go for a walk." I'm going to say goodbye, and I'll leave it to you, little girl. After saying that, he left the invitation, stood up and left.
I stopped when I sent him to the gate of the other courtyard, and went back to the back yard to teach the little witch to practice martial arts. Sampros was still working his footwork, and he had to be by my side for a long time, so he explained to him much more carefully. As for teaching the little witch, it is much simpler, directly teaching her Ling Bo Weibu and some tips for borrowing strength. The first time I taught the natural trouble, it took 3 hours for her to memorize the whole set of footwork, and then it was easy to ask them to continue practicing, and I went out shopping.
Another day passed quickly, and I had a general idea of the situation in Noah's City. There is a huge disparity between the rich and the poor among the people of the city, and basically the nobles and commoners live in different worlds, with the nobles living in the south of the city and the commoners in the north of the city. The east and west of the city are commercial districts, and various trade unions are built near the center of the city.
Since I had to attend Yulia's birthday party in the evening, I went back to the hotel early. Sampros and Aisha are very diligent in their cultivation, and it seems that they are very fanatical in their pursuit of power, a bit like me used to be. I told them to take a break and asked Aisha about the feast.
"Just dress neatly, and the more expensive the birthday present, the better." She replied cheerfully.
Although it was her sister's birthday, she was also going to participate, so I asked her to go back first. Sampros didn't like this kind of lively occasion, and I couldn't pull him to accompany me, so I had to go to the banquet alone.
I don't have any idea about what to wear, and I plan to wear it in white, but it's not easy to give a birthday present. My life motto is that you can't be ashamed of what you lose, and I'm embarrassed to give away something that's too bad. The most valuable items around me are minerals, and it would be a bit of a no-nonsense gift to give them to Yulia as a birthday present, even though the Frost Crystal Ore is perfect for her as a water mage.
It would be nice if I could melt the cold crystal ore, so let's try it. Operate the internal force of the whole body, use the Burning Sun Heart Method, and transform the internal force attribute into the fire system. I've never tried it before, and now that I think about it, it's a really good idea. In the right hand of Gongyun, the blazing fire attribute internal force erupted. I have to admit that such a temperature is really high, and in a moment, the cold crystal mine actually began to melt, and the internal force is worthy of being the most flexible and controllable energy, and the cold crystal mine has become various shapes everywhere. I didn't have time to be amazed by my skills and conceived the most beautiful image with all my heart.
Suddenly, it occurred to me that pure beauty was a waste of this cold crystal mine, so why not try to set up a formation and give it a practical skill. I think those magic props are also made of various magic arrays, so it's a good idea, so let's start with a simple one.
Considering that it is the shape of a corsage, it is more appropriate to set up a defensive circle. So first the simplest defensive circle, then the complex automatic defense circle, and finally the defensive counterattack circle, I gradually perfected the past. Especially the defensive counterattack type magic circle at the end is really exhausting, and I am too tired to do it.
I rested for a long time to recover, and I was proud to look at the blue peony-shaped corsage in my hand. Its practicality is undoubted, it can resist at least three master-level power attacks, and the power below the master level can't hurt it by half a point at all, and it deserves the title of 'holy weapon'. Its artistic value still needs to be evaluated, and I believe that if it is worn on Yulia, it will not be wronged.
The dinner party was about to start, and I hurried to the City Lord's Mansion. There were all kinds of carriages parked outside the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and it was obvious that the people who came to Yulia's birthday party were all people of status. I'm afraid I was the only one who came to the banquet on foot, and those who arrived before and after me gave me a look of contempt and depression.
There were several welcoming people standing at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, half male and half female, and I think there should be a lot of girls who came today. I took out the invitation and handed it over, but instead of letting me in right away, the greeter stared at me. After hesitating for a moment, he walked towards the person behind him who seemed to have a bit of status, handed him the invitation card to me, and asked in a low voice, "Lord Steward, this person is really strange that he is dressed like this for Miss Yulia's birthday party?" But the highest-level invitation card he held in his hand, did he let him in? ”
The manager also hesitated for a while, and then said, "Let him in, I heard that the adult mentioned that there is a big man coming today, maybe it's him." ”
I heard their words clearly, and I reacted instantly, I must have been tricked by the little witch. I took a closer look at the clothes of the male brothers in the back, and it turned out to be a uniform dress. Later, I learned that the more formal banquets of the Lin Empire, everyone had to dress up, the girls had to wear dresses, and the boys had stricter requirements, and they had to wear the prescribed style of evening dresses, which was really terrible. This little witch actually pampered me like this, see if I don't play with her to death in the future, hum. It's not good, the birthday gift she said must have lied to me, damn, what should I do? The meeting is not about making a big fool in front of everyone.
The greeting was already urging me in, and I had to bite the bullet at this point. The entrance is the front yard, not far from the banquet parlor, the front yard is relatively empty, just a piece of turf. At the door of the banquet hall, there were a bunch of people in charge of reception, and I was stopped just as I wanted to enter the banquet room. The receptionist said, "Please sign your name here, register your gift by the way, and of course you can give it to Miss Yulia yourself." "I understood the mystery after a little thought, and the person who put down the gift here should know that his gift is not very good, so there is no shame in it. I was about to put down the gift when I heard a shout from the reception desk of the girl next to me, "Lorensky. Miss Jerry arrived, a Caesar pearl necklace. ”
Damn, the gift should also be shouted famous, isn't it a shame? All girls give necklaces, I send corsages, sweat ...... Hurriedly pulled out the hand that was stretched into his arms and said, "I will personally give it to Miss Yulia." "I thought to myself that if I didn't send it anyway, she wouldn't know.
,Ahhhhh,,,h
