The pen &www.biquge.info amp; fun & pavilion smiled and looked at the Duke who was still talking about Auston's adaptation, lowered his head Leo took a sip of the wine in the glass, and the wine after adding some honey was a little weird, but the sweet aroma on the tip of his tongue made him slowly like this taste

Right! It's really a good thing......

Remembering the Duke of Lancaster's speech before, before he was certified by the House of Lords, he dared to directly recognize Leo's identity, and he dared to characterize the war between the two nobles of the Northern Domain, what did the Duke rely on?

With the accumulation of more than 100 years of the Lancaster family, with the ability to participate in the formulation of laws, the distinguished status of the House of Lords, and the power brought by the huge human and material resources in the hands

Even His Majesty Bernadotte I, who is the emperor, would not or dare not easily veto the decisions of a great nobleman such as the duke......

It is no wonder that many people in their previous lives often put the phrase "wake up to the power of the world, drunk and lie on the knees of beautiful women" on their lips, this feeling is like old wine, mellow makes people obsessed with it and can't extricate themselves

Of course, Leo was not entirely fooled by the Duke of Lancaster's overtures, thanks to the conversation with the Marquis of Peyton before the banquet began, which made him understand that this was nothing more than an exchange of interests and politics

And the bargaining chip that Leo holds is his identity from Pande, and the powerful force and almost inexhaustible wealth brought by this identity, as for the existence of the system, Leo does not think that the natives of this world can understand the existence of this kind of high technology

"Hehe, there are still some nobles who despise this world, who said that nobles are idiots? How can a person who can sit in a high position in any era not have a brain, presumably Peyton and the Duke have already felt that they are different from the predecessors of the Swan family, that is...... There is absolutely no intention of making a wedding dress for someone! ”

It's just an exchange of interests, maybe one day after a long-term cooperation, Leo and these nobles may become real friends, but for now, it can only be said that there is a naked collusion of interests, the duke and others facilitate his plans in the imperial capital, and he will give a reward after the expansion of power

Leo, though upright, would not be stupid enough to oppose this, and he never thought that he could ignore all the rules of the game on his own, at least not at this stage......

Reaching out for the maid behind him to refill the empty wine glass with crimson wine, Leo put a charming smile on his face after thinking about it, and politely looked at the Duke who had already told the story to the end

“…… This armor, which I prefer to call the "Armor of the Sanctioner", is not only a gift from the gods, but also a warning to us mortals, as the superior ones, not only must we not get lost in power, but also have to make our voice heard against injustice and the desires of the people! ”

The Duke of Lancaster was still old, and he was a little tired after telling a short story, but he still bowed slightly to Leo and the Marquis of Auston before taking a sip of wine and speaking

"Thank you to my friends His Excellency Léo and Auston, who not only brought me this precious piece of armor, but also pointed us in the direction with a thought-provoking story that made it impossible for me to refuse this gift!"

After a slight pause, the Duke looked at his only grandson, Antonis, with expectant eyes, and said in a gentle tone

"This gift, I hope one day, will be worn on the body of the heir of the Lancaster family, just like the legendary knight once was......"

"Pap~Papa~Papapa~"

As the Duke finished speaking, the applause quickly became dense, and the nobles below clapped their hands desperately and congratulated the master here, just like the Marquis of Auston at the beginning, the lack of entertainment made the nobles' lives lacking

All the stories related to heroic legends have become the life they chase and yearn for after they are bored, and they have long been tired of listening to the legends and stories of the Nice continent, and they have finally found something to brag about

Even though the Duke of Lancaster had declared the ownership of the Fascist Armor, there were still nobles who did not give up or considered themselves to be of equal status, and they were arguing and shouting below

There are those who want to buy at a high price and ask the duke to cut their love, and there are those who ask the duke to auction with Alston, and so on, but unfortunately these ideas are politely and firmly rejected by the duke

Just when the hormones of male nobles were elevated and they imagined that they could become legends by wearing fascist armor, the eyes of most noblewomen and aristocratic girls were placed on the original owner of the armor early, and dozens of hot and loving eyes for a while made Leo a little overwhelmed

Fortunately, Elena, the girl who made Leo's heart, relieved him, and seeing that his grandfather was surrounded by nobles and couldn't get out for a while, Elena secretly ran to Leo's side with the corner of her skirt, tiptoeing and whispering in his ear

"Thunder...... Leo, well, Professor Pericles has arrived, could you please meet him, the professor is a little uncomfortable with this kind of occasion, I am afraid that he will leave later......"

There was an intoxicating scent of jasmine in his nose, and Leo looked at the girl in front of him in surprise, who was only a head lower than him, this was the first time he had met an aristocratic woman who loved cleanliness so much in this era

Different from the previous conversation between the two people who were far away, in order to let the other party hear the words clearly, the distance almost close to each other made Leo who found this even more excited, and he was a little distracted in a trance, looking at the girl in front of him blankly

"Leo-sama!!" Elena, whose face was a little hot by Leo's gaze, stomped her feet and shouted in a high voice, which woke Leo up, and then realized his gaffe, he hurriedly covered up

"Oh ~ Oh good, well, what is the professor, no problem, I'm going to meet him......" After speaking, he didn't even bother to ask the location, and drank the wine in his hand in a big gulp, and walked out

In fact, what he didn't know was that Alina, who was biting her lip and blushing behind her, was even more nervous than him, and Leo's eyes just now made her who had always been lively a little at a loss

In particular, unlike the body odor of other nobles and the incense powder used to mask the taste, there is no pungent smell mixed with the two, Leo has a light and refreshing masculine breath on his body, which makes Elena's heart beat uncontrollably

Holding her chest and smiling sweetly, Elena suddenly remembered that the professor had said that a clean body is the premise of resisting disease, and it seems that this Leo is really different from most of the superstitious nobles who believe in the teachings of the church

Looking up at Leo, who had hurriedly walked away in the wrong direction, Elena spat out the tip of her cute tongue and shouted after catching up a few steps

"Lord Leo, the professor is here, and the direction you are going is the kitchen of the Duke's Palace......"

“……！” Someone suddenly felt the urge to hide their face and run away
