The melodious music in my ears, the skirt that flew up and down in front of me, and the goblet with an amber halo in my hand.

This is Marius's nightlife, which seems to be gorgeous and leisurely, but it will be boring after a long time.

Not to mention, those guys who will come up to talk to you from time to time, but they just talk about the hidden heart of clinging. Seriously, none of those people said anything was down-to-earth.

Compared to Maca, who is still thinking about it in his office, Marius has a much more luxurious life, and he doesn't have to worry about this. However, this is not the life he wants.

“…… Good evening, Master Augustine. It was a pleasant surprise to meet you at this ball...... Haven't you chosen your first dance partner for tonight? I don't know if the little girl is lucky enough to ......"

Marius sighed in his heart, but he had to put the wine glass in his hand down for the time being, trying to add a false but perfect smile to his face.

"Oh, Mr. Shackleton, hello......"

This balding middle-aged wizard with a big belly is still known to Marius. Not only did he know him, but he could also recite all of the other party's family background fluently, and even the name of the other party's granddaughter who was born just a few days ago.

No, if you think that this Shackleton family is some kind of outstanding wizarding family, you are very wrong. Marlois still remembers that the last time he saw this bald man was more than half a year ago, when he was just an ordinary material merchant.

But that's no longer the case.

Due to the recent Hogwarts alchemy competition, the trend of alchemy suddenly swept the global wizarding world.

Although the champion of that event is still undergoing a complicated interrogation, and Nicol Lemay's legacy has not been updated for the time being, the effect of promoting alchemy has already been achieved.

And Shackleton, an ordinary material merchant for generations, made a lot of money this time because of the source reserve of alchemy materials.

To put it bluntly, this is just an upstart.

However, whether it is a wealthy family or a so-called nouveau riche. Anyone who has a real interest is worthy of proper friendship with the Augustinians.

No, if you have to say, as the heir of the Augustinian family who has been taught by the family since childhood, Marius will not do anything that does not conform to his status.

Even if he just wants to be alone and quiet in his heart now, he can still greet him with a smile when it's time to communicate. Because what his face represents is actually the Augustinian family itself.

"Oh, Miss Shackleton, your eyes are as intoxicating as this glass of wine. I think I'd love to invite you to slip on the dance floor with me and dance to the same intoxicating music......"

Words against his will came one after another, and Marius knew that he would never run out of words. Because from a very young age, he has begun to transcribe and recite all kinds of "useful" sentences that are "in line with his identity".

And these words can be said to any woman who is valuable to the family, and he must also say them well and completely.

The Augustinian family, a wizarding family that was quite famous a thousand years ago, is an ancient wizarding family with a deep heritage.

It's a pity that although the vast majority of outsiders don't know, Marius knows it as the designated heir. That is, this family is not as good as it used to be.

Not long after, after dancing with the older "young lady" who was very ordinary-looking and had some rough palms, Marius returned to his original position.

Yes, he participates in this "upper-class" wizarding society almost every day, and he is already tired of it.

"Alas......"

He shook his head slightly, didn't say anything, just picked up his glass again and took a slight sip.

In fact, sometimes he thinks about something – if the wedding had gone ahead in the first place, would his life have been better than it is now?

Maybe so!

It's just that some things that have passed are in the past; For some people, if you miss it, you miss it. Even if it was the woman's family's fault for what he thought about that repentant marriage, Augustine now really has no confidence to argue with the other party.

Marlius, who was holding the wine and stirring the aroma in his mouth, was thinking about it, when he suddenly noticed a figure in the corner of his eye, and he immediately knew that someone was coming again.

However, just as he put down his goblet again, intending to "cope" with it as he had just done, he suddenly paused slightly.

There are two reasons for Marius's pause: first, the "young lady" who came to him was a rather eye-catching beauty; Second, he doesn't know.

As for the second point, don't underestimate him Marius Augustine!

Not to mention the old forces in the world, he can turn it back according to the genealogy, and even the many "nouveau riche" that have risen in modern times He is making up for it every day.

Just like the bald head just now, it belongs to the typical latter.

Moreover, at his age, the most important thing to pay attention to is these unmarried women who are not much different in age. It stands to reason that he can remember all the names and looks of girls who deserve attention, even more important than he reciting spells.

"The families who can participate in this dance party have some foundation...... "Marius smiled, and kept recalling the picture book in the study, "but this ...... Whose daughter is it? ”

Seeing the graceful and beautiful woman getting closer and closer, Marius, who couldn't turn over the relevant memories at all, had to press his thoughts, ready to press the scene with clichés first.

Maybe after a few more conversations, he can remember something?

However, Marius's thoughts were destined to be in vain. Because he hadn't had time to take the initiative to speak and maintain respect for women, he saw the other party turn around not far in front of him and go directly to an empty table next to him and sit down.

There is no doubt that Marius is a little embarrassed now, but he is also a little happy.

If the other party had taken one more step this way just now, he would have opened his mouth to speak. When the time comes, he will encounter a scene that is ignored by a lady on the spot.

This kind of scene not only has a great impact on his Marius face, but even the Augustine family he represents will be made fun of by some opponents.

This kind of negative impact is obviously not very big, but for the Augustinian family, which is going all the way to decline, it can not appear without appearing.

If it weren't for that, he Marius Augustine wouldn't have had such a tiring life!

After pretending to be casual and leaning over to look at someone on the dance floor, Marius leaned back in his chair again.

His gaze was mainly in the direction of the girls in the center of the dance floor, but from the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but glance at the woman just now.

What is the origin of this woman? The previous turn...... She did it on purpose, right?

Who knows, just when Maleo glanced a few more times and was about to withdraw his gaze and pick up the wine glass, the woman actually took the initiative to look at him.

What made Ma Liu even more angry was that the woman not only looked at it, but even raised her wine glass and gestured to him slightly. A smile with a hint of meaning made Marius twitch his fingers as he held the goblet.

Sure enough, it was deliberate! Moreover, this can be said to be mocking him!

"That's really ......" Marius also barely raised his glass, at least it was not rude, "Hmm...... It's beautiful......"

Although there is a bit of a diaphragm in my heart, beautiful things always give people a natural good feeling. What's more, the woman who would tease him like this, Marius Augustine, has really never seen it!

Even if the state of operation in the family is worrying, outsiders don't know about it. In the eyes of other families, Augustine is still famous, and he has always been a very strong "thigh".

"And with a lot of personality."

Marius suddenly felt that the dull ball hall seemed to have a touch of vivid color, which was particularly clear in the dullness of gray, white and black.

Of course, this only aroused his interest.

In the face of expanding the social relationship on behalf of the family, an unknown beautiful woman is not enough for him to pay excessive attention - the inheritance education from childhood to adulthood has taught him that everything he does will serve the family business.

With a sigh of relief, Marius smiled at the other man, then turned his head away from her.

It's just that although he doesn't want to delve into it, it doesn't mean that the other party is no longer entangled.

At most, five minutes have passed. When Marius had a few more casual words with a male wizard who had come to "chat" and let him go, the woman came over with a wine glass.

"What is this going to do again......"

Marius watched her pass by his seat, and then sat down unceremoniously across the round table. On that jade-soft face, there was a subtle chuckle as before.

"Good evening, Master Augustine," said the woman with a smile, "seeing how busy you are at the ball, as if every girl wants to dance with you, is it really hard?" ”

This woman clearly has a smile on her face, and every word she says is like a compliment, but how can it be so full of irony when you listen together?

"This is all the love of the ladies, how can it be said that it is hard work...... This beautiful young lady, I wonder if I will be lucky enough to know your name? ”

Marius first said the cliché with an unchanged face, but in the next sentence, he went straight to the place where he was most confused, which shows that he was very curious in his heart.

When the other party heard this, he pulled up the hair on his shoulders a little carelessly, and his eyes drooped slightly.

After making Marliu wait for a few seconds, she lightly opened her lips and said slowly:

"I probably haven't heard my name, Master Augustine, but that's okay, because soon you'll remember it in your heart......"

"I don't have a last name, but I have a name that I like very much myself – it's called 'Miriam.'" ()
