"The power of darkness? Well...... Miss Catherine, if you notice anything unusual, don't do it yet...... After all, this is Bluman's royal palace. ”
Hearing this, Roland hesitated for a moment, but decided not to act rashly.
The only possibility of feeling the breath of the dark forces in this place is that some nobles have been controlled by the dark forces, and they want to achieve something.
That's not a good sign!
Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind, could it be related to the Pure Dark Church?
"Baron Roland, it's time to ...... I will be waiting here for your return. ”
At that moment, there was a click, and the carriage stopped at his feet, and the voice of a servant was heard.
"Come on, Miss Catherine, it's just an ordinary banquet today, come on......"
Roland smiled slightly, put his hand in front of Pastor Catherine, and said.
"Alas...... Well, I don't know how many years ago I last attended a banquet like this. ”
Catherine looked at Roland helplessly, then took his arm in one hand and walked slowly towards the carriage.
In fact, as a former Templar Battle Priest, she really wanted to cleanse the source of that dark power, because that was what the clergy had to do.
But...... Now her master, Roland, has given such an order.
Then Catherine had no choice but to obey, try her best to hypnotize her heart, and ignore the aura of those dark forces.
As soon as the two of them got out of the carriage, the first thing they saw was a huge dark gray castle, and when they looked up, they saw that the huge building seemed to be towering into the sky. There is no end in sight.
However, at one of the entrances to the castle, from time to time, some nobleman would enter and exit with his companion in hand.
If there is no miscalculation, it should be the place where the banquet is held.
"Miss Catherine, if you don't mind, you can come closer...... Because it makes it feel a little more natural. ”
Suddenly, a strange smile flashed across Roland's face. He whispered to the priestess beside him.
"Good...... Well, Mr. Roland. ”
Catherine replied unnaturally, took a step forward, and wrapped her arms around Roland's arms, making them look more intimate with each other.
"I'm sorry, Miss Catherine, if you don't, you'll be suspected."
"It's okay, Mr. Roland has given me a new voice. So whatever you want me to do...... It's all possible. ”
"Ahem, it's nice to have Catherine's trust...... Let's go in now. ”
At this moment, feeling the softness of the touch on his arm, Roland hurriedly coughed, forced his composure to lead the priest beside him, and walked towards the entrance of the castle.
Perhaps because of Catherine's beautiful appearance, those nobles couldn't help but take a few more looks.
At the same time, they are also speculating about who the young man next to this beautiful lady is? It's as if I've never seen this person at all. Could it be the nobles from other empires?
But before the fellows could come up with anything, Roland and the others had already entered the castle.
"Banquet at the Royal Palace. But who is the guy who sent the invitation? ”
When Roland entered the castle, it was as if he had entered another world.
In the ornate banquet hall, the waiters were seen shuttling through the crowd, and the nobles were gathered in a small circle with other nobles, talking to each other on certain topics.
"Let's go to the second floor first, Miss Catherine."
Roland's gaze scanned the hall. Holding the hand of the female pastor directly, he slowly walked towards the second floor of the banquet hall.
The real purpose of his coming here was not to attend a banquet, but to see what the guy who sent the invitation was trying to do. Since the other party has already sent out the invitation, I think the other party will definitely come out to meet them.
The other thing was to convey a message to Wicks about Lorenzo's preparations for a rebellion.
It is important to know that there can be a limit to the scope of the command to be communicated. If Roland had left a certain distance, the puppet Wicks would not have received his orders.
At that time, Wix would only follow the orders he had been given, and then do what he deceased.
After coming to the second floor, I found that there were not many people here, only a few soldiers in charge of the positional order.
Roland looked around and walked towards a table and chair near the edge window.
Because they can see the situation on the lower floor and the situation outside through the window, they can make the right response in the first place, even if something unexpected happens.
"Miss Catherine, just treat it as if this was just an ordinary banquet, don't be so nervous, what do you want to drink?"
"I need a cup of black tea......"
He asked the waiter for some red wine, and then took the solemn priestess to sit down.
The two of them drank wine while waiting for the guy who sent the invitation to appear.
"Hey, I'm the Marquis of Moultrie, can I sit next to you?"
But after a while, a voice broke the silence around them and drew the eyes of Roland and the others.
When he turned his head, he found that the owner of the voice was a man dressed in a red aristocratic costume, and there was a good-looking woman standing beside him.
"I'm sorry, we still have some things to talk about, if you want to take a break, you can go somewhere else."
Roland glanced at the man lightly and said softly.
Not far away, there were also some tables and chairs, so why did he have to choose this place?
Could this guy be the one who sent out the invitation?
It's just that such an idea just appeared in Roland's mind, and he immediately vetoed it.
Because although that Moultrie was talking to him, the other party's eyes looked in Catherine's direction from time to time, even a fool knew what this guy was thinking, so Roland refused this guy without hesitation.
"You ............."
Upon hearing these merciless words, the Marquis of Moultrie's face immediately darkened. The cruel gaze was fixed on Roland's body, as if he wanted to kill him.
Originally, he had made up his mind to come over and talk to the lady after confirming that Roland was just an inconspicuous little baron, but he didn't expect the other party's tone to be so tough.
"If you have nothing else to do, Mr. Moultrie, please stay away, I don't want what to say next to be heard by some inconsequential person."
But Roland didn't care about it at all. An eviction order was immediately issued to this guy.
At this moment, the banquet hall suddenly fell silent.
Such a strange change made Roland and the marquis can't help but look in the direction of the first floor of the hall, only to see Prince Wicks holding a woman in a white princess dress slowly walking in from outside the castle.
"Hmph, I'll come back to you later, stupid Mr. Baron, you'll regret your decision."
At this time. The Marquis of Moultrie glared at Roland hatefully, and then walked in the direction of the first floor.
Although Moultrie didn't show anything on the surface, he already had a killing intent towards Roland in his heart.
Damn, that guy is just a little marquis, how can he be worthy of such a beautiful woman! That beautiful aristocratic lady was definitely something that belonged to him Moultrie.
No, you have to find a way to snatch her over.
Merely...... At this time, he needs to take the opportunity to get closer to the relationship between himself and Prince Wicks. Lay a certain foundation for the promotion of titles in the future.
As for the young marquis, wait until everything is settled. Come back and trouble him.
"Mr. Roland, can I purify some of that guy with the Light?"
Catherine, the priestess, held the black tea in one hand and said lightly.
Obviously, she was very angry at the Marquis's behavior, but because of Roland's presence, Catherine did not immediately do anything to the fellow.
"Hmm. If the feast is over, let the Holy Light punish that guy. ”
Roland nodded and agreed with her suggestion.
If he could meet that guy after the banquet, he wouldn't mind teaching the other party a hard lesson.
"Huh. Is that the second princess Ainara? ”
Just as Roland was about to convey information about his brother to Weeks, he accidentally noticed that the woman next to him was somewhat familiar.
At first, he thought it was just Wicks' regular female companion.
But upon closer inspection, Roland was surprised to find that the woman was actually his sister, that is, Her Royal Highness the second princess of the Bruman Empire: Princess Ainara.
How did she end up here?
You must know that this is just an invitation to ordinary nobles, a symbolic banquet.
However, those big nobles such as dukes and princesses, as well as royals like Prince Lorenzo, will not attend at all, and even Prince Wicks will not stay too long and will leave soon.
Suddenly, Princess Ainara on the first floor of the banquet hall seemed to feel Roland's gaze, and immediately turned her head and nodded slightly at him.
But her next behavior surprised Roland even more.
Ainara let go of her brother's hand and walked slowly towards the stairs on the second floor, as if she wanted to find someone from above.
Suddenly, Roland realized that Princess Aynara had come to look for him.
Because at this time, on the second floor of the entire banquet hall, there were only two people, him and Catherine, and a few soldiers who maintained order.
But what is the purpose of the other party looking for him?
Thinking of this, Roland couldn't help but feel a trace of shock in his heart. Don't...... Could it be that she was the one who sent the invitation?
At this time, the eyes of those nobles also followed Ainara's figure slowly.
But after a while, they were surprised to find that Princess Aynara seemed to be looking for a man and a woman sitting in the corner of the second floor.
In an instant, countless speculations surfaced in the hearts of these nobles.
"Damn, Princess Aynara knows him?"
At the same time, the Marquis of Moultrie from before also saw this scene.
Gradually, a hint of fear slowly emerged in his heart.
He actually offended a nobleman who knew the princess, even if the other party was just a small baron, he was able to make the princess easily kill him.
No, no, no, he's going to have to find a way to mend that bad relationship.
