Chapter XVIII

"You are the Brave One, His Majesty has ordered me to wait here for a long time."

When Lu Ming took off the sword holster of the holy sword and entered the palace territory, someone stopped him.

"We are the Knights of the Kingdom of Nocton."

In front of him was a very young man, probably in his twenties, dressed in silver-white armor, with a silver glittering sword pinned to his waist, and the national emblem of the Kingdom of Norton engraved on his chest.

At this moment, he was putting his hands on his chest and saluting Lu Ming, not only him, but behind him there were more than twenty knights who were also dressed in the same costume, all of whom saluted Lu Ming.

There is no way, really to say it, there is no one in this world whose status is higher than that of the brave.

"My name is Tyran, and I'm the head of the Kingdom Knights, so I'll lead the way, Lord Brave."

After saluting, the young head of the knight order made a gesture of invitation to Lu Ming.

"Then I'm bothering you."

Lu Ming nodded and took the lead in stepping into the palace territory, and then Tyranel also walked towards the main hall of the palace with him.

On the way, Lu Ming checked the level of the people nearby, and he found that in addition to the more than twenty knights of the Kingdom Knights around him, there were more than a dozen knights in various places in the palace, and those were probably also from the Kingdom Knights.

Because Lu Ming also met several people along the way, Tyranl nodded to them separately, obviously also a subordinate of the head of the knight order.

"Brave man, please."

When he arrived at the palace, Tyranl let Lu Ming walk in first, and the members of the knights behind him dispersed, and in the end, only a small group of knights followed him into the palace.

It seems that the security of this palace banquet is the responsibility of their Kingdom Knights.

Lu Ming didn't pay attention to them, he had already stepped into the palace at this moment.

The moment he entered the palace, a wide golden hall suddenly appeared in Lu Ming's field of vision, there were many precious treasures placed in the hall, it looked like a feeling of golden brilliance, if it wasn't for Lu Ming staying in the Demon King's castle for a long time, I am afraid that he would be shocked.

"Brave, you're here."

At the top of the main hall is a golden throne, and on the throne sits a man who looks a little old, this is the king of the kingdom of Nocton.

When he saw Lu Ming coming in, he said softly, and suddenly, the palace hall, which was still a little noisy just now, immediately quieted down, and everyone turned their attention to Lu Ming.

At any time, the brave man is the most concerned human on the continent.

Facing the king's greetings, Lu Ming also nodded lightly, and he also deliberately looked around the king to see if there was any legendary princess.

After all, it was a princess who had a marriage contract with him, how could he not care.

And as a traverser, he has a lot of feelings for the princess, he didn't get a princess when he was the demon king in his previous life, and he was all destroyed by the damn brave, and now that he has the opportunity, of course he is a little moved.

Unfortunately, to his disappointment, there were no young women around the king.

"Ahem."

The king on the throne naturally noticed Lu Ming's actions, coughed a little embarrassed, and could understand what the other party meant, and explained to him:

"An Leia, she is not feeling well, she can't participate in this banquet for the time being, if the brave wants to see him, you can go directly to her room to find her after the banquet."

An Leiya is probably the princess, for the king's excuse, Lu Ming nodded in agreement on the surface, but he didn't care very much in his heart.

This palace banquet is actually the engagement ceremony of the brave and the princess, and its importance can be imagined, it is a continent-wide level banquet, at such an important time, as long as the princess can still get up, then the king will definitely let the princess come over and show her face.

If the princess is not allowed to come out now, there must be another hidden matter.

Could it be that the princess disagrees?

Lu Ming guessed that no matter what, when everything was over and he went to meet her, he should be able to know the reason.

The premise is that the other party is willing to meet him.

"Okay, since our most important guest, the brave, has arrived, then this king announces that this banquet of the Nocton Kingdom will begin!"

At the command of His Majesty, music sounded in the main hall of the palace, and a large number of carts containing food retreated from outside, and the guests made way for an open space in the main hall where the dancing girls and the guests danced.

Even the king stepped down from the throne, passing by the noisy crowd, he walked straight to Lu Ming, followed by a few strangers.

Lu Ming was not in a hurry to leave his position, but wanted to see what the king was looking for him.

"Brave, this is an envoy from other kingdoms on the mainland, they heard about this banquet and rushed over from their own country."

Unexpectedly, the king only came to introduce him to people, which made him regret staying here for a while, but now, he can only shake hands with the envoys of these continental kingdoms one by one.

"The brave man really deserves to be the brave man, he is really young and promising."

"Yes, yes, the Brave has time, and I remember to come to our Delt Kingdom, and our King has always wanted to meet the Brave."

These people are all nobles from the major kingdoms, and the lowest of them also has the title of earl, and they came on behalf of His Majesty the King of their kingdom to praise Lu Ming.

Lu Ming didn't have much interest in them, and he didn't even remember their names, and after getting to know them a little, he found a reason to leave here.

"Haha, Lord Brave, it's better to see it than to hear it for a long time, I've admired Lord Brave for a long time, and I've finally seen you."

Just after he escaped from this group of people, another person chased after him, and his words were obviously praising him, what has been admired for a long time, he has not been out of the village for two days, okay.

Just sensing the level of the person behind him, Lu Ming raised his eyebrows slightly and did not run away.

"Lord Brave, I am the head of the Sky Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Noxon."

It turned out that the man behind him was indeed a little different, he put his face in Lu Ming's ear and muttered softly.

Lu Ming was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the people from the Sky Chamber of Commerce would be waiting for him here.

So he didn't speak, and waited quietly, wanting to see what they were doing when they approached him.

However, after the person in charge of the Sky Chamber of Commerce revealed his identity, he began to chat with him, and he didn't have any idea of getting down to business, until Lu Ming left, and the middle-aged man still looked a little unsatisfied.

I'll see how long you can hold on.

Lu Ming tiredly walked away from the crowd, found a corner and silently ate the tribute of the palace, watching the performance of these people.

He found that the person in charge of the Sky Chamber of Commerce had a very high status in this group of people, at least the same status as those kingdom envoys, and several people chatted with each other well, even the kings on the side were talking and laughing.

"Look at the appearance of this King of Noxton, he has a good relationship with the person in charge of the Sky Chamber of Commerce,"

Lu Ming casually put a piece of food into his mouth, squinted his eyes, said softly, and then shook his head:

"That's right, the Sky Chamber of Commerce is a big chamber of commerce, and the economy of the kingdom depends entirely on them, even if the relationship is really not good, they have to make a show on the surface."

"The most important thing is ...... The man's rank ......"
