Chapter 45: The Banquet
After a morning and half an afternoon, Noron took Ellie and Sue back to the villa, changed into evening dresses and prepared to head to the palace for a birthday party that began at five o'clock in the evening.
Ellie took a few pieces of fine fabric and used her divine powers to turn them into a black dress. This is a shoulder-covered chiffon maxi dress with a cute bow at the waist, and layers of lace embellished on the beautiful skirt make it even more cute.
Ellie looked at Sue, the Marquis of Rennes did not know that Noron was planning to take Sue to the feast (in fact, Noron suspected that the Marquis of Rennes himself was not invited), and Sue had been bedridden and had not prepared a dress for her. So she took out a few white fabrics of the same kind from the cupboard, and also used her divine power to make a set of the same style. Sue, who got the dress, was so excited that she hugged Ellie and kissed her a few times, only to find out in horror that she had offended the gods. Fortunately, Ellie just blushed and did not angrily reprimand or even punish her, which made Su breathe a sigh of relief.
Noron wore the blue gold-trimmed scholar's robes that Beccolis had sent with invitations, and he was not low in charm, and I wonder how many aristocratic girls and beauties would fall for him at the banquet later.
Odom was left at the villa tonight, and Noron would be taken to the palace in a carriage specially sent by Beclis. Before Noron left, he gave his servants a night's off, allowing them to play outside until ten o'clock, and then boarded the luxurious carriage at the door of the villa with Ellie and Sue, who had been waiting impatiently.
Driving was Tosso, whom he had seen last time, and he nodded to Noron and directed the carriage along the road to the palace. Along the way, many nobles who also went to the dinner party found this car belonging to the eldest prince, and they all guessed which wizard was favored by the eldest prince, and even sent out their own frame.
The carriage traveled for about an hour and stopped in a large square. Toso shook the bell on the car and knocked on the door: "Mr. Norlon, two young ladies, we have arrived at the palace." ”
Noron got out of the carriage, and what appeared in front of him was the palace chambers, side halls, and gardens on both sides, centered on the main hall of the palace. The side hall where the banquet was held was majestic and magnificent, and the interior of the hall was made of marble inlays, and everywhere there were a variety of decorations and carvings, tapestries and huge paintings, and the walls that were released by magic were dazzling; Crystal lamps with unique shapes line up the side hall.
Noron took Ellie and Sue with him, showed the invitation to the attendants in front of the temple, and after his polite inspection, walked into the richly decorated side hall. The main hall in the center of Wang Gongzheng is a place for discussion and decision of national affairs, and it cannot be used for banquets.
Noron took Ellie and Sue by the hand and stepped into the hall, receiving a large number of surprised or curious glances. Most of the people who appeared at this dinner party had a lot of power or strength, but few people had seen Noron, so they would naturally pay attention to this young man who had never seen him before, with two cute little girls, and he was not annoying in his own right.
But soon, the nobles who had not yet seen Noron at the banquet looked away, because the first beauty of the empire, Her Royal Highness Sally Ruska Platia, the eldest princess, appeared. With an interested smile, she moved lightly and slowly walked in the direction where Noron was.
Noron also saw the eldest princess, but after hearing about the eldest princess's 'deeds' and knowing her personality in general, he didn't want to have anything to do with the eldest princess. So Noron pulled Sue and Ellie, and while the eldest princess was still some distance away from him, he walked through the crowd to the food area that Ellie longed for.
It's a pity that Noron underestimated her attraction to the eldest princess, even if she was getting farther and farther away from the eldest princess, she still maintained her original speed and walked slowly towards Noron, as if Noron was already in her bag.
Ellie didn't see the eldest princess's target at Noron at first because she wasn't tall enough. But after some distance, she also saw the woman who was walking towards them from a distance, staring at Noron with a gaze she didn't like. Ellie ate the small biscuit in her hand and thought about it, took advantage of her height to hide her hands under the table, and secretly released a greasy spell on the woman's high heels.
After casting the spell, Ellie picked up an ice cream on the table on tiptoe, ready to see the joke of this woman who made her hate, but she didn't expect the woman to just shake slightly, frown and look around, and then pretend that nothing had happened, and continue to walk towards them.
Ellie stared blankly at this woman who could walk normally after being hit by the greasy surgery, and felt more and more that this might be a big enemy. But she found that Noron just glanced at her, frowned and looked away, and only then did she relax slightly. So in the strange gaze of Su, who was unaware on the side, Lord God took the veal steak in his mouth as the woman and bit it fiercely.
Not long after, under the watchful eyes of the nobles present, Sally walked up to Nolon, a lucky and unfortunate fellow, and smiled at him charmingly. Just when everyone thought that something big was going to happen, Sally just touched Sue's little head, who didn't know her identity and didn't feel nervous, and then gracefully took away a plate with veal steaks, and walked towards the back of the hall in a graceful manner.
Seeing that there was no bloodshed, the guards in the hall all put down their weapons. If Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess made a big fuss about Her Royal Highness the Queen's birthday party, they really didn't know whether to step forward and stop it. The nobles in the hall were relieved to see that nothing major had happened, but some people still looked at Nuolong carefully and secretly labeled him in their hearts not to be easily provoked.
This banquet is not for eating, and Noron said a few words to Ellie and Sue before leaving the food area and walking towards the center of the side hall. Since you have decided to live in the imperial capital, it is better to have a relationship with your 'neighbors'.
In the hall, there are aristocratic gentlemen dressed in carefully prepared evening dresses and carrying a glass of wine, each gathered into a small group; There were bishops of the temples with scepters, and high hats, and robes; There are aristocratic ladies who gather in the hall, wearing exposed or exposed clothes to attract the attention of men, but remain in their own small circles. If someone made a big move at this time and wiped out all the people standing in this side hall, then the strongest Platadian Empire in mankind would have to go back at least twenty years.
Not long after, at about half past five in the afternoon, the Emperor of the Platadian Empire, who was only forty-four years old this year, Digos led Empress Venaria and all the princes and princesses of the empire behind him, and appeared from behind the palace under the gaze of everyone.
