Chapter 19: Attack Laura
When the dark sky completely enveloped Heimdall, Lane arrived at the very center of the empire, Balfrem Palace.
In the banquet hall, the grand dinner to welcome the return of the prince had already begun, and the melodious dance music was heard far and wide in the quiet night.
Li En did not go to the banquet, although he was a person who liked to be lively, but he was the most repulsed by this kind of social scene where nobles gathered. There is a factor of disliking emptiness and wrongdoing, which is more due to the white eyes of life problems.
Lixia didn't go either, she was a gentle personality who liked to be quiet and not moving, and she preferred to drink tea and chat with friends in pairs of friends compared to the flashy and noisy banquets.
Arenelas wanted to go over and have a big meal, but Elfin dismissed her thoughts with a word.
"Tonight's dinner is more of a dance party, with only a few snacks prepared, and most of the guests have had dinner."
"Huh?" Yanirath's screams were heard from far and near.
The main reason for this misunderstanding is that the celebration of the dissolution of the mutation held in Grantel a month ago was too cheerful. Kloss clearly knew the group well, and several long banquet tables were filled with all kinds of delicacies. As a result, the foodie team with Liz as the captain and Yaniras, Estelle, Dorosi, Jost and others as the team members swept the audience, shocking the ground, and even the belly duke, who had always eaten an amazing amount of food, was willing to bow down.
(Episode: In order to eat as much as she could, Dorothy did not eat the day before the feast began, and was hungry for thirty hours.) Tsk, buttresses in and out of the buttresses, there is a great style of my generation eating buffets back then. )
Elfinn's next sentence turned Yani's sadness into joy.
"Brother Dinner has been prepared in advance, Sister Yani doesn't need to worry."
"Wow, thank you so much, Elfin ~rub~"
("Yani is completely devastated.") Lixia whispered. )
("Hehe, isn't His Highness Elphine eaten by Yani?") Rien smiled knowingly. )
As the imperial princess, Elfin can be said to be born with a golden spoon, lacking nothing but close friends. Yaniras has no heart, is not delicate and pretentious, and her every move is innocent and cute, and it is not surprising that the two are close.
——————————————————————————————————————————
In the corner of the banquet hall, a blue-haired girl in a white evening dress with silver high heels had a stiff body and a painful expression. If it weren't for her good martial arts skills and meticulous control of her body, she would have fallen down several times.
It took a lot of effort to sit down safely, and the girl breathed a sigh of relief with the crowd on her back, wiped the sweat beads from her forehead with a handkerchief, and muttered in a low voice: "It's more tiring than receiving my father's special training, so I'm still wearing a ceremonial dress." ”
"Got used to it, Laura." A low, magnetic voice came from behind her, and the tall, middle-aged man didn't know when he came behind the girl.
"Father" Laura struggled to maintain her balance and slowly got up, "It's not good, these shoes are not convenient at all, your toes hurt when you take two steps, and your balance is also very bad"
She caught a glimpse of the aristocratic girl on the dance floor who was showing her graceful dancing posture, and said with some envy; "I don't know how they managed to hold on, I think it's already painful just to walk."
The father and daughter are quite famous figures in the empire, and their father is a martial artist who can be in the top three in China. S. Yarsid. Her daughter, Laura, is one of the best warriors of her generation, the next descendant of "Alside Stream", and more importantly, she has been recognized by the holy sword "Eulandelle", who once served "Paladin" Roland and "Holy Maiden of Guns" Liana Sandlot, and is regarded as the holy sword of the highest symbol of knighthood.
"Alas~" Hearing his daughter's words, Victor sighed. He was widowed at an early age and raised his daughter alone, who, although of noble character, was ignorant of the world, which once distressed him. This time, Laura was forced to wear an evening dress to attend the banquet, also to let her learn the lifestyle of ordinary aristocratic girls, but unfortunately it had little effect.
"Your Excellency, Viscount, excuse me." The protagonist of the banquet, the returning prince Olibat, came slowly with a glass of rose-colored cocktail.
"His Highness Olibart." Although Victor has no official status, as the owner of "The House of Alsaid", he is an extraordinary and powerful person, and his status is transcendent, and he only nods when he sees the prince.
"This is Ling Ai."
"Laura S. S. Yarsid. Laura put her hand on her chest and bowed.
As everyone knows, the corners of Victor's mouth twitched again when he saw this action, daughter, the skirt shouldn't be so saluting.
"Hehe, it's exactly as rumored." Olibat smiled heartily.
"Rumors?" Laura didn't know why. The ancients didn't listen to anything outside the window, and only read the books of the sages, and replacing "reading the books of the sages" with "practicing swords" is Laura's current state. (As mentioned earlier, Victor took his daughter to special training.) )
"Heroic, a model of knights, my father praised you as the reincarnation of "The Holy Daughter of the Gun", the first person of the new generation."
"Your Majesty and Your Highness have a good reputation, although the little girl has the ambition to surpass her ancestors, she is still far from deserving this kind of praise." Victor excused himself, not modestly, but sincerely.
"Father is right, I am still too far away from the Holy Maiden, and it is not a fact that I am the first person of the new generation. At least Shu Huaze's Lien, I don't think I can do it. ”
"Ryne?" Olibat was slightly stunned.
"Your Highness also knows Lane?"
"Yes, he, now it's not as good as you." Oliebart laughed.
"How so?" Laura looked dazed, "I've played against him so many times, and the win rate is less than 40%. ”
"I promise you'll win all of them if you play against him now." Olibat swears.
"What's wrong with him?" Laura's heart tightened.
"He's not very good."
"Is it hurt?"
"Instead of asking me, why don't you go and see for yourself?" "He's so close to you," said Oliebat, "that he should be dining in the garden now." ”
“!” Laura paused, "Thank you, Your Highness, let me leave the table first." ”
"Go, go." Olibart waved his hand, the smile on his lips growing stranger.
"It's rude." Laura lifted the hem of her skirt and swayed it, but stubbornly trotted away.
"Your Highness, what do you want to do?" Looking at his daughter's approach, Victor's face was complicated. Daughter, can't you still forget that kid?
"Poofha." Oliebar finally laughed, because he was facing away from the crowd, so only Victor could see his expression, "It's nothing, it's just a little revenge on Riene, who told him to always cheat me in Liber." ”
“?” Victor's brow furrowed slightly.
"I didn't lie to Miss Laura, Lane was eating there, but he wasn't alone." Olibart easily stopped laughing, "His little girlfriends are too, hey, I'm looking forward to this scene, or I'll sneak over and take a look." ”
The mutual blackmailing between Ogua and Rien was a regular program. The people who are usually close to Olivier are either serious, such as Mura and Cedric, or Ogua Neg, such as Elfin and Sherazade. That is, Li En can keep up with his ideas, can make jokes, and can play a black hand, and both of them are enjoying it.
This time Ogua made the first move, and next time he should be careful of Lien's revenge, as it seems that Lien really has a good hand in his hand - such as the order of a certain Shera, the authorization of a certain Mula.
Of course, Olivier can play a lot of cards - such as a commission from a certain Coloss, a request from a certain Elfin. (Hey, why are they all princesses?) )
"Your Highness, please stop in moderation, that's my daughter." Victor said lightly.
"Just kidding, don't take it seriously. With Ling's loving personality, the scene I was expecting would never have happened. ”
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have let her go." Knowing the daughter Mo Ruo's father, "Then again, what happened to Li En's child?" ”
"That's a long story"
Laura trotted along the palace corridors, and the elegant-looking gown was now a complete burden, and her upbringing did not allow her to behave too disrespectfully.
Suddenly, she had an idea, her feet exerted force, and the heel of her shoes broke directly in the gushing of fighting energy.
"Well, it's much more comfortable." Laura nodded slightly.
"Rian, I'm looking for you."
Laura, Attack.
