Volume 1 Chapter 72 The Garden

"Hehe, it's really ridiculous and arrogant, everyone at this banquet at this moment, which one is not richer than you, and which one is not more status and status than you, but the humble people who dare to speak like you. ”

"Hehe, control your destiny, who do you think you are? Why? With your mouth?"

Just after Thor's words ended, an abrupt voice rang out, sounding like some teenager in the middle of the table. He used sharp words to refute Thor's talk about the wilderness, or rather to Thor's ideals.

Thor glanced over, because he was sitting at the end of the table on the right side, and he couldn't see who was talking through the heads of the large row, but he was probably one of the people in the row on the right, sitting closer to Bertha.

In fact, Thor himself is also very helpless, what others say is a lofty ideal supported by the family, but what can an orphan say to himself.

Did I barely survive the famine in Grey Curtain by eating talents?, or did I study under an unknown old man for three days and am on my way to becoming a warrior?

Saul would love to ignore or skip the topic of 'ideals', but as a member of the feast, he certainly can't be rude to the host of the feast. He could only think of a temporary explanation, and he didn't mean to target anyone at all, and he didn't expect that someone was still playing with words.

The whole banquet suddenly fell silent, and it seemed that everyone present did not expect such a situation to suddenly appear, but they all reacted quickly, and they all held the mood of watching a good show, waiting for the response of the young man Sol.

Miss Bertha, who was in the main seat, picked up a napkin and brushed her delicate red lips, and then kept a gentle smile, and her eyes rested on the flowers behind the plate, as if they were attractive.

Thor suddenly remembered the disdain that passed over Bertha's face when he mentioned the words wilderness and adventurer just now, and then thought about the voice directed at him at this moment, as if he had just shown love to Bertha.

Things have been connected, and he seems to be unconsciously involved in some inexplicable whirlpool, Saul suddenly felt as if he had seen an adult version of Valle, oh, Valle, who has more status, and only felt a little boring for a while,

"Heh, Wren, then why did you jump out to question others, based on your family's hidden arms business?" Chrissy at the opposite table suddenly said in a hard voice.

"It seems that the cooperation between our two families may need to be revisited in the future. That's what Rianna said.

“...... No, two beautiful young ladies, I ......" The guy who was named Rennes was a little speechless for a while.

There was a bit of confusion at the banquet for a while, and he seemed to have unconsciously lost a lot of favors, Thor stopped Shuggers who was loudly participating in the heckling with his eyes, and then slid back with a hard chair under his feet.

The chaotic scene was interrupted by the movement of chairs, and the whole banquet suddenly fell silent.

Thor stood up and finally found the sullen boy in a large row of heads, and Thor smiled slightly at the other party.

"I'm sorry, I'm from the remote town of Grey Screen, and I'm a little nervous about this kind of grand occasion, I thought everyone was just chatting casually. ”

"You're right, my tone is too casual, and I apologize to all of you here, and I should be more cautious about my future prospects. ”

After saying that, Thor raised the goblet in his hand to signal to Wren, and then took the glass and turned around to the people at the banquet before Thor drank the wine in the cup. Then he sat down and straightened his chair, giving Hughgos a look.

Shogues spoke tacitly about his great thief's ideal, and it seemed that the conversation about the ideal had been continued, from Thor to the other side.

Everyone at the banquet also stopped dwelling on this trivial matter, after all, they still had to take care of the face of the host, Miss Bertha.

The topic of ideals was finally passed smoothly to Bertha's left-hand side, just in time for a lap of passing.

As the host, Bertha smiled and said that it was normal for the younger generation to have disputes, and took the lead in raising a glass to wish everyone to realize their ideals and achieve greater achievements in the future, and the banquet ended here.

The feast was followed by a ball, and the people left their seats under the guidance of the servants and went to a new place.

Shogues came to the table with his glass.

"Do you want to have a good time at the dance party in the back?"

Shoggers was not worried about Saul's mentality, thinking about the time when he was furious in the face of the mad dog Jost, Saul still looked calm, and Seguez knew very well what kind of freak Saul was.

Perhaps it is that abyssal state of mind that can hide the real stormy waves.

"Prom, wouldn't you?" said Thor.

Xiugues waved his hand nonchalantly.

"It doesn't matter what, just hug a beautiful girl casually, and learn it with a rub. And any dance moves are not worth mentioning in the face of my nimble thief steps. ”

Thor smiled and raised his glass.

"I'm not going, you have fun, don't get into trouble. Drink less, come back early, and find a chance tomorrow for us to go shopping on the street together. ”

Shugues nodded and clinked glasses with Thor before turning to leave.

The servant cleaned up quickly, and when Thor came to his senses, he found that he was the only one left in the empty dining room, and the table was already neat, except for a few clusters of flowers.

Glancing around, Thor found that he was not alone, there was also a maid standing quietly on the side, waiting.

"How do I get back to my room? Thor asked the maid politely.

The maid looked very respectful, bent down slightly and said to Thor:

"Distinguished guest, I will be in charge of guiding you the way. However, I kindly recommend that you take a proper walk after your meal to enjoy the view in the garden, and if you feel tired, you can follow the path on the right side of the garden to return to your room. ”

Thor turned to look in the direction of the garden pointed out by the maid, perhaps to keep the room breathable, and the purple rich curtain was lifted high, revealing the vast garden space behind the curtain.

However, the view is limited, and the indoor and outdoor light only covers a small part of the garden.

Looking back to say something, Thor suddenly found that the maid in front of him had left at some point. He instinctively felt that something was wrong, as if the maid was so sure that she would definitely choose to go back from the garden?

And in retrospect, it seems that the maid has been standing in the position just now during the whole night banquet, although Sol has not deliberately paid attention, but the maids have stepped forward from time to time to share food and wine for the guests, which still gives Sol a vague impression.

The maid did not leave after the feast, as if she was waiting for herself.

If the maid had been at this banquet, she would have seen the scene of being ridiculed just now, but her attitude was still a little too respectful, it didn't seem that she deserved the treatment, was it because of the strict etiquette and family rules of the lord's mansion?

Thor didn't come up with a clue for a while, and wanted to find another maid to ask, but looking at the empty restaurant, Thor gave up the idea. Forget it, don't run around alone.

Since the garden was connected to the dining room, it could not be some secret forbidden place in the lord's mansion, so Thor turned and walked under the curtain and stepped into the garden.

The garden was wide, and although it was not in sight, Thor could still feel it from the unobstructed breeze.

The ground is paved with tender green grass, which is soft to step on, and carefully manicured low shrubs are surrounded by blooming flowers, which not only makes effective use of the garden space, but also reasonably reserves the access road.

Thor sniffed the fragrance of the flowers and walked slowly, walking for a while, as if he had reached the edge of the garden.

Even at the edges, there is no untended desolation here, with a few trees that are not densely populated, and behind them is a low parapet that stretches out on either side.

For the vast and complex terrain of the Lord's Mansion, Thor couldn't determine what direction he was in at the moment, or where the Lord's Mansion was.

Just as Thor was about to turn to the right to look for the path the maid had spoken of, a voice suddenly came from overhead.

"I didn't expect to see you here. ”

"Meaning you've seen me somewhere else?" Thor looked up.
