Chapter 151: The Lively Tower
Just as Carl was fascinated by it, he suddenly heard footsteps going upstairs, and quickly turned his hand to hide the letter.
"Sophie, hey, Mr. Roland, you're there too!"
It was none other than Sophie's father, Sir Grant. When he saw Karl, he immediately showed a hearty smile: "Monsieur Roland, so many ladies and ladies are eager to dance with you, I hope to hear you recite beautiful poems, but I didn't expect you to hide here." ”
"Haha, it's because these ladies and ladies are so enthusiastic that I have to hide!"
Seeing that it was Sir Grant who came up, Karl couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time shrugged his shoulders slightly, and deliberately said quite relaxedly: "After all, I don't want to be like the great sage Randall, the first time I attended the social stage, I almost died!"
"Haha!"
Sir Grant couldn't help but smile, the story of Randall, the great sage, that Carr had said, was a well-known allusion in this world. The content is probably similar to the "Kill Guard Rank" in Karl's previous life.
The Great Sage Randall was a famous wise man of the pioneering era, it is said that he had the blood of a very high elf, his face was handsome, and his beauty had transcended the boundaries between men and women, and when he was very young, his father, the patriarch of the Randall family, was worried about his amazing beauty, thinking that his beauty would bring disaster to the Randall family, so he dedicated him to a great nobleman of the royal family.
Under the etiquette education of the royal family, Randall is even more personable, The talent is unparalleled, and the perfect seems to be an elf prince who came out of a fairy tale, so when he first officially appeared in a social situation, it caused a huge sensation, and countless aristocratic ladies and ladies chased him frantically, and scared the young Randall into serious illness and bedridden, if it weren't for the fact that the contemporary Heavenly Song Saintess happened to be a guest in the royal capital, and saved him with a powerful magic technique second only to the Great Resurrection, I am afraid that there would be no great sage in history who could shine an era and push the pioneering movement to the peak for the second time.
"If you can die surrounded by roses, even if you go to the kingdom of Hades, you will carry the fragrance of flowers!"
Sir Grant recited a well-known old aphorism and said with a slight smile: "Even if you are worried that you will encounter the same bad luck as the Great Sage Randall, don't forget that Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden of Heavenly Song is coming to the City of Silver Tide, and no matter what kind of bad luck it is, it will be completely dissipated with the blessing of Her Highness the Holy Maiden's Heavenly Song!"
"Yes!"
Carr accepted Sir Grant's praise in full, and at the same time said cheekily and without modesty: "If I can make a name in history like the great sage Randall, I will never forget to write a poem in praise of you!"
"Humph!"
A cold snort suddenly came from the top of the staircase, and a young man with a wine glass was standing in the shadows of the staircase with a gloomy face, looking at Carl with disdain.
He was the same young man who had just made a mockery of Carl at the ball, and Karl's success had already made him extremely jealous and resentful, and the atmosphere at the ball where everyone was discussing and paying attention to the new great poet made him irritable and depressed.
And just when he wanted to avoid this atmosphere and go to the tower to calm down, he didn't expect to hear Carl's boasting here. This made him jealous, and accumulated a night of resentment and dissatisfaction, like a flood that opened the floodgates, suddenly broke the embankment of reason, and vented his anger.
After he sneered, he shouted again: "What are you that can be compared to the great sage Randall." The Great Sage established the Royal Academy, established the Royal Chamber of Commerce, reformed the kingdom's economy, liberated the manor serfs, and incorporated the free mountain people and wild wanderers into the economic cycle of the territory...... Such great wisdom and great achievements, can you compare with your little clever and small means of writing one or two poems?"
Sir Grant frowned slightly, displeased by the young man's impolite interjection.
Karl, on the other hand, was slightly surprised, looking at the young man as if he were a rare animal. It seems that the aura effect of his dragon chapter and phoenix posture is not invincible, at least this guy who is hostile to him seems to be more hostile and hates him.
"Not necessarily!"
Today's tower seemed destined to be very lively, and Miss Melissa walked out with a smile on her face, shaking her fan gently.
"The Great Sage Randall has the 'Elemental Diamond' bloodline from the Elf clan, Mr. Roland also has the crown bloodline from the Canghai Dragon Clan, the Great Sage Randall has a Marquise favor, and Mr. Roland also has Lady Loris's discerning hero ......"
Miss Melissa, with a shallow smile, easily brushed over the gloomy young man and landed on Carl.
"Moreover, Monsieur Rowland still has a literary talent that the great sage Randall does not have, and this epic tonight alone is enough to make Monsieur Rowland leave a strong mark in the future literary history. ”
"What's more, I know that Mr. Roland, you also have extremely profound insights into politics and economics, and in time, you may not be able to become a great sage like His Excellency Randall!"
Miss Melissa smiled and walked into Karl step by step, and seemed to see Karl's puzzled appearance, and then gently covered her mouth, and said with a chuckle: "These are all what Monsieur Franco and Monsieur Machiavelli told me! Although Mr. Machiavelli looks a little sleek, but in fact he is very arrogant, he has extremely high opinions and theories in politics and economics, but he rarely admires a person in this regard!"
"It's a pity that I'm a little late to know you, otherwise I would have to get ahead of Lady Loriss and let you be my guest!"
Carl then understood why this "Laurel Crown" lady was so optimistic about himself as soon as they met, it turned out that Franco and Georgie had already recommended him in front of this young lady. At the same time, he also vaguely understood the status and position of Franco and Georgie in the City of Silver Tide.
Miss Melissa's Golden-Leaf Gladiolus family is the third family in the City of Silver Tide after the Mermaid Family and the Wave Trident Family, and has always remained neutral in the struggle between the Mermaid and the Wave Trident Family, and is the representative of the neutral faction of the Silver Tide Council.
Therefore, it is only natural that outsiders with such roots as Franco and Machiavelli do not want to get involved in the whirlpool of the struggle between the two families of the Silver Tide City, and take the initiative to get closer to Miss Melissa.
"It's also my regret that I didn't meet a beautiful lady like you earlier!"
Carl looked at Miss Melissa, who was as elegant as a muse, and couldn't help but feel regretful, and at the same time, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, using his bloodline ability to manipulate the water vapor in the air, condensing into drops of ice flowers, sprinkled like raindrops.
For a while, the sky was dripping with tears, and the stars were falling like rain!
In a beautiful dreamlike scene, Carl held up a rose made of water droplets and gave it to Miss Melissa with a gentlemanly demeanor.
"The sky is crying, the raindrops represent my tears, I give you back the roses, I only wish we could meet soon!" 8)
