Chapter 135: The Banquet
Sylvid carefully smoothed Fang Yuan's collar, pressed her hand on his collar, fingers like bamboo shoots, took a small step back, and looked at the other party with admiration. She pursed her lips slightly, and there seemed to be a layer of light floating in her jewel-like eyes:
??β It's much better that way. β
?? Fang Plover lifted his chin a little awkwardly, letting Sylvide fiddle with him back and forth. Watching her choose this black flannel coat with silver embroidery from a large pile of clothes.
?? Although he didn't know what was so good, he always felt the same, but since the ship's master lady was willing, he waited quietly for the other party to deal with it.
He thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Sylvide, I think Sugar Candy may have misunderstood you......"
?? Silvid only smiled slightly when she heard this, and whispered to him, "It's okay, I don't care. β
?? With that, she stood on tiptoe and lightly imprinted a kiss on his lips.
?? Fang Yu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and reached out to hold her in his arms, and after a long time, the two separated.
??????β I'm sorry," he looked into the girl's bright eyes and couldn't help but apologize a little: "Dulun has made you worry for so long until now. β
?? Sylvide smiled lightly, but her eyes were full of affection.
?? She asked a little curiously, "According to Tangtang, your uncle and aunt are your guardians?" β
?? Fang Yu nodded.
??β Can I meet them? She asked softly in her arms.
?? Fang Yuan's heart was hot when he heard this, and he understood what Sylvid meant. He took her hand and nodded vigorously.
?? Sylvide only smiled and lowered her head, and at that moment she really felt a little happy in herself.
??β Let's get out. She said.
"Selected?"
Sylvid nodded lightly, looking at him with a smile in her eyes.
Fang Yu couldn't help but look at his coat, and was a little curious where did the other party find so many clothes? The fabric is delicate, and it is not cheap to look at it when you touch it with your hands.
Sylvade saw what he was thinking, and replied, "This is for Dressy to help prepare, and in terms of the family background of the Cillin-Sbicca family, what is this bit of clothing?" β
Fang Yu suddenly realized.
The two pushed the door open, while the others were already waiting.
Under the crystal light outside the door-
Tang Xin wore a black evening dress skirt, revealing her slender collarbones, her long ebony hair was pulled up, and the skin under her slender neck was like snow.
She held her head high like a swan, clasped her hands, and only glanced at the two of them faintly.
Fang Yu never thought that his cousin would be so amazing on the spot when he dressed up a little, and he almost didn't dare to recognize him for a while:
"Sugar, sugar?"
Tang Xin glanced at him angrily.
This look finally made Fang Yu sure that it was his demon's cousin.
On the side, Ai Xiaoxiao was wearing a cyan floor-length skirt, and she couldn't stop snickering between the two.
She is half a head shorter than Tang Xin, although she has been smiling, she has a good family education and outstanding temperament, and she does not feel out of place with her surroundings at all.
Relatively speaking, a few people on the other side are a little crooked and cracked.
No matter how you look at the dress in the box, it is also one size bigger, and Luo Yu's face is tense as if he is about to go to the execution ground.
Kita blushed a little and couldn't help but hold on to the glasses that didn't exist.
The Lion Paladin was more like he had been tied up to a banquet.
"I should have exchanged it with Miss Elisa, this kind of thing is really not a suitable place to go down," the big cat man sighed uncomfortably, "Once the wind of freedom is restrained, it will no longer be the breath of the wind." β
Tianlan couldn't help but smile: "Mr. Dickett is also a believer in the goddess, if you look at the usual appearance of others, he doesn't look uncomfortable at all." That's an example for you to learn from, big cat people. β
But Dickett wasn't here, and the big cat man only rolled his eyes when he heard it.
Can the people of Rotao be the same as the human knights?
However, although Tianlan had been complaining that the whalebone corset had strangled her, as she said, the little girl seemed to be no stranger to such occasions.
Although in Fang Yuan's opinion, he always felt that it was not the fault of the corset.
Of course, this confirmed a guess in his heart, it seems that Azure is not so simple in the origin of the twelve-colored irise.
Attila didn't show up, and the teachings of the druids made her instinctively reject extravagance and extravagance. As for the last person to appear in full costume, Ms. Papamo simply stunned everyone.
Tianlan opened a small mouth, looked at the short girl in front of her who was as delicate as a doll, and couldn't help asking:
"Lady, did you go to the wrong room?"
"Are you stupid?"
Parker's feminine, foul-smelling tone replied unpleasantly.
The others laughed back and forth. Ai Xiaoxiao was about to burst into tears and laughed, she felt that everything here was so interesting.
It wasn't long before Drith finally appeared in front of everyone, accompanied by a servant.
The Uncrowned Crown was also by her side, like a knight. And the little princess of the Sirin-Sibika family looked at everyone before saying, "The banquet is about to begin, everyone go to the main hall with me." When I have the chance, I will take you to my father. β
Fang Yu couldn't help but be stunned, this didn't seem to be quite the same as expected.
He had promised that he would return to the team after the soul fingerprints were night, so he specifically inquired about it. Before, and the Earl had agreed to meet them in advanceβ
How can you go back on your word now?
He was about to ask again, but Drith had already turned away, and only the Uncrowned Crown winked at him.
The young man nodded to him before turning to leave.
Fang Yu looked at Sylvid on the side with some confusion.
The ship's master lady didn't say a word, only gave him a slightly calm look.
The crowd followed the servants through the golden corridor, and the long corridor was hung with crystal lamps one after another, as if there was no end. In Sylvide's description, the banquet took place in a villa manor of the Sirin Sbicca family.
The grandeur of the Rose family in the south can be seen from this.
This was the beginning of the upheaval, and what about the heyday of the Cillin-Sibicca family's mastery of the Rose Workshop?
Fang Yu is really unimaginable.
It wasn't long before the servant stopped and pushed open a door, waiting for them to enter the door.
Sylvid walked through the door before she suddenly whispered to him, "Ed, things may have changed on Delis's father's side, and it's not as simple as we expected. β
?? Fang Yu was stunned: "What's wrong?" β
Behind the gate was a brightly lit hall, which was crowded with people.
Just look at the outfits on these people, and you can see that they are all nobles.
However, although there were many people in the hall, they did not enter the hall through the main entrance, so they did not attract much attention.
Only 'Ms. Papamo' was a little annoyed: "How did we get in through the side door, who do they think we are?" Is that how the Earl thinks of our saving grace to his daughter? β
"Are you stupid, Parker?" Sky Blue replied angrily, "Drith's father wants to see Miss Sylvide and Brother Eddard, who do you want to attract when you come in through the main entrance?" She poked the latter's head with her hand: "Besides, the person who led the way is Delisi, do you think the little princess will snub us?" β
Parker was speechless.
Sylvid looked at this scene before turning around and saying to him, "Driss's father brought back a student from Ye Hua during the time he left. I have heard that the Count himself was very fond of the young man, and even intended to consider him his successor. β
Ye Hua? Fang Yu couldn't help but think of the Ranger King he had met once.
He asked in a low voice, "Is it what happened during this time?" β
Sylvade nodded slightly.
Fang Yu frowned when he heard this, and wondered: "If there is someone in Delisi's father's mind, then we don't have little hope?" β
The ship's lady shook her head slightly.
"That's not necessarily, the world of alchemists still has to speak with strength," she turned back to him, looking at him with a wandering gaze, "This position must be the captain, and this is also for the sake of the Rose Workshop." β
She smiled slightly, "Don't forget, Captain, after all, I'm also half a member of the Silin-Sibika family. β
Fang Yu didn't expect Sylvade to be so confident in herself. However, he quickly calmed down, believing that Sylvid had gotten the news early in the morning, and that since she had brought him here, she must have had something in mind.
Miss Shipmaster, in his impression, almost never did useless work.
Sylvid replied, "But this banquet is mostly for the young man. β
Fang Yu couldn't help but be a little puzzled, he didn't have any superfluous thoughts in his heart, he just felt that no matter how optimistic the Earl Lord was about his students, he didn't need to set up a special night banquet to wash the dust for him?
Isn't that a bit outrageous?
Sylvid saw what he was thinking, and said, "The other party's return to Van Rik at this time is mostly to introduce this young man to the circle of the Southern Alchemist Alliance. The Rose Workshop is not a matter for the Rose family in the South, and to become the next owner of the Workshop requires the support of the Council of Elders, as well as the approval of the traditional allies of the Sirin-Sibika family. β
She raised her gaze and looked at the scene in the hall: "I have seen the list of banquets from Drith, and the invitations are all celebrities from the southern alchemist world, and the Earl is trying to build momentum for his students. β
When Fang Yu heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised.
Because when it came to building momentum, he thought of the experience when Sylvid took him to meet Ender. It turned out that since then, she had been working on this game of chess, and if it weren't for today's accident, she should have succeeded in introducing herself to the big men of the Southern Alchemist Alliance that she had seen that day.
And then take advantage of the external situation and his own identity, plus the Cillin-Sibika family itself owes him a favor because of Delisi's affairs, and with a multi-pronged approach, it is probably a matter of ten times for him to obtain the approval of Delise's father.
It's no wonder that Miss Ship Officer said before that things have changed a bit.
At this moment, Dressy and the Uncrowned Crown had disappeared into the crowd. Everyone was a little idle in the hall at this time, firstly, they were out of step with this circle, and secondly, Silvid's identity should not be revealed.
But the Paparal, who had been complaining before, had now found something to do, and he ate happily at the table full of food with the boxes. Luo Yu wanted to persuade the two of them to pay attention to their image at first, but he didn't expect that Tianlan would join in not long after.
Next is Ai Xiaoxiao, who is full of curiosity.
She and Tianlan have similar interests, and the two quickly become friends who talk about everything.
Tang Xin watched this scene a little speechlessly, of course she knew that the 'little princess' was by no means a delicacy to be coveted at the banquet, purely because such behavior made her feel 'very interesting'.
It's not so much about eating, it's about being a part of the fun.
She sighed and looked to the other side, where Fang Ou was whispering to Sylvid.
"The Earl wants to have that young man join the main tournament of the Continental League," Sylvid looked into the hall and replied softly, "Unlike you, the Continental League has a lot of weight in the alchemist circle, and if that young man can make the examiners of this session look the other way, there will probably not be much opposition within the Council of Elders to the matter of the successor." β
Fang Yu thought about it for a while, the Earl's thoughts were surprisingly consistent with his own ship officer, and the purpose of the two of them was actually to use external forces to persuade different opinions inside. It's just that Dreis's father is the owner of the Rose Workshop himself, and he only needs to get the Council of Elders to agree with him.
Sylvid turned around at this time: "After all, alchemists still have to use their strength to speak, and the other party set up this banquet to invite so many celebrities from the southern alchemist world to gather here, and the purpose is naturally among them." β
"It is precisely because the other party's mind is on this banquet that he can't separate himself from meeting you and me, and he probably didn't listen to what I said in the letter before. Drise's father might have wanted to meet us after the feast, but by then it would be too late for the captainβ"
Fang Yu couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Then what are you going to do?" β
"Of course, it's the first strike."
A voice interjected from behind.
Fang Yu looked back, and just happened to see Tang Xinzheng with a stinky face, and said coldly at him: "Cousin, you are really stupid, Miss Sylvide has already said it so obviously. β
Seeing this, Sylvid only smiled slightly, took a step back, and gave up space for the two siblings. And Fang Yu was stunned when he heard this, and he felt in his heart, he looked at the hall, and in this brightly lit hall, the celebrity masters of the Southern Alchemist were gathering at this moment.
He didn't know the vast majority of these peopleβ
But presumably many of them have actually met him. It's just that the way we met at that time was a little different.
Thinking of this, he suddenly understood what was coming, and couldn't help but look back at his ship's officer. Sylvade's eyes were crooked like crescent moons, and she only nodded to him slightly.
Drissy's father must have wanted the young man to show off his talents at the banquet, and if he could surprise the four people, he would naturally be recognized by many masters in the alchemy world.
With the outside world's approval, it will be much easier for the other party to convince the elders of the Rose Workshop to agree with their own opinions.
But what Fang Yu understood was-
Sylvid had brought him to this banquet to-night, not to see the Earl, of course, but to cut off his beard, and she had already arranged all of this. Fang Yu looked at his ship's officer, and at this moment, it seemed that a pair of fluffy fox ears had grown on his head again.
It even shook slightly.
"But if the captain doesn't want to come forward," but Sylvid smiled, "we can wait until after the banquet to meet the Earl, and let Sylvide find another way." β
Tang Xin turned around angrily, but she didn't see it.
However, Fang Yu shook his head slightly. What's unwilling, it's just fair competition, if the skill is not as good as others, then it's another matter. But at least in the field of alchemy, he still has some self-confidence, and the things he has promised cannot never be put into practice.
Fairy Heart is an important step in completing the Seven Seas Traveler.
"I'll try my best." He replied.
Sylvide nodded.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the hall.
It seemed that someone over there had announced the official start of the banquet, and Fang Yu even heard melodious music.
It's just that they are standing in a more remote position, and they can't see what is happening in the center of the hall. It was only after a while that she saw Kita running in a panic from that direction with her skirt, and it turned out that it was Sky Blue who had told her to tell the others that Drissy's father had appeared.
She replied breathlessly, "The Earl still has a young man with him. β
Fang Yu couldn't help but glance at each other with Sylvide and his cousin, thinking that this was indeed the case. However, the next news came to the three of them even more surprised.
In the center of the hall, the crowd was dispersed, and Fang Yu first saw an old dwarf, with snow-white eyebrows and a scorched nose that looked like he had been wounded. He knew the alchemist's robe he was wearing, which was a red background and silver filigree, a symbol of the master craftsman.
A great craftsman is admired everywhere, even in the general association of Golande craftsmen, the great craftsman is at least the head of a department, and in the south, the number of master craftsmen is even more than two slaps in the face.
However, before Fang Yu recognized the identity of the other party, he had already seen Drissy's father.
The other party was very conspicuous, because Delis followed the weather-faced Earl Lord, although the Prime Minister's party had already characterized it as a chaotic party, but within the Southern Alchemist Alliance, it was obvious that no one paid attention to such a 'chaotic life'.
Moreover, Fang Yu believed that the local consul must have learned about this banquet earlier, but he just pretended not to see it.
In Van Rik, nature is a different story from Dulun.
And beside the Earl stood a somewhat feminine young man, frowning, and very elegant in appearance, and the first impression was excellent. Even Fang Yu couldn't help but look at it twice, almost thinking that he had seen the handwashing guy again.
He paused for a moment before he realized that this was the young man that Driss's father had brought back from Ye Hua's side - the other party was actually the same as him, a Elector.
It was then that the Earl spoke: "I am sure you must be curious about this young man beside me. β
He looked at the young man with a smile on his face, obviously very satisfied: "But before I introduce it, let me sell a pass first." I want you to recall one thing first, this incident is of course bad news for the kingdom, and no one can bear to look back at what happened at that time - but let me dare to mention it to you, do you remember what happened to Fenris half a year ago? β
When Fang Yu heard this, he subconsciously froze. Fenris Island? What did the other party do when he mentioned this place inexplicably?
He looked back, and Sylvid was frowning slightly.
