Chapter 68, The Harmonious Night Feast

The feast began after the moon came out, but not in the courtyard, but in the hall of the villa.

Hubert thought that it would be enough to prepare some food for the caravan and mercenaries, but he had dinner with Baron Xavier at the long table, and by the way, the two sides were very friendly.

But who knew that Baron Xavier actually removed the long table, pushed away the furniture of the entire hall, and replaced it with a large round wooden table, inviting everyone to join in the evening feast. This was exactly what he had said at the beginning, and it made everyone happy—except for Mr. Hubert, who was slightly displeased, who thought it was a violation of aristocratic etiquette to dine with inferior people in this way, even though the great merchant himself was not an aristocrat.

After a few words with Adair, Erwin was naturally invited, and he took Illya to sit at a round table in the corner of the hall, which was already filled with sumptuous food prepared by the servants, fruit bread, ham and bacon, roast goose and suckling pig, various soups and cheesecakes, and the special wine of the estate. This is true at every table, and it seems that Baron Xavier has paid a lot of money to thank everyone.

Erwin's table was still unoccupied, except for him, Illya and Elena, who had come along, there were only two mercenaries who had already begun to eat and drink, because the caravan and the Fire Lion mercenary group were not all in, and some of them were taking care of the horses and goods in the courtyard outside.

Erwin had already told Illya to eat anything other than soup before he came, but this middle and second female mage didn't need his instructions, and had already started a "eat fast" competition with two mercenaries, in exchange for Elena's eyes one after another, although the little girl was also looking at the table full of food and swallowing her saliva, she was the daughter of the regiment leader, but her life was not much better than that of ordinary mercenaries.

"If you don't eat it, they'll eat it up, so don't drink the soup." Erwin finally got his wish and reached out and touched Elena's head, but to his disappointment, the little girl did not show any comfortable expression, but looked at him with a red face, and then began to deal with the food on the table.

"Can we sit next to you, Mr. Adventurer?" Just when Erwin was a little speechless, a beautiful woman's voice suddenly sounded behind him.

The voice attracted the attention of several people at the table, and Erwin turned his head to see that it was a noble girl in a pink dress and style, which looked even more beautiful and eye-catching, and she smiled at Erwin, as if waiting for his answer.

"Of course, this is your home, you can sit wherever you want." Erwin smiled as well, noticing that the girl was followed by a handsome young man, and reached out to pull the chair next to her.

But the noblewoman did not really intend to sit next to Erwin, but sat in the seat with a chair separated from him.

The chair in the middle was sat down by a handsome young man who was following the girl.

The arrival of these two people immediately quieted the table, and the two mercenaries and Elena hurriedly stopped the hungry ghost eating with a red face, only the embarrassing middle two female mages were still concentrating on dealing with a pig's trotter, ignoring the surrounding situation.

"Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Jenny. Xavier, this is my brother Lyle. Xavier. Jenny smiled and introduced her sister and brother, with an approachable attitude, without the slightest aristocrat.

"I'm Erwin, an adventurer from the South." Erwin nodded to the two, but he was wondering what the two were going to do when they found him, could it be that he showed a flaw somewhere?

"Yes, Lyle loves stories about adventurers. I have inquired in the caravan this time, and it seems that the only adventurers are Mr. Erwin and your companions, and I am sorry, can you tell my brother about the adventure, maybe he will be able to use it when he goes out on a trip in the future. Jenny explained why she had come to Erwin.

But your name is Lyle. Xavier's brother had a smile on his face, but he couldn't tell from his eyes and demeanor that he was interested in adventure, Miss Jenny!

Erwin silently complained in his heart, listening to this Gianni. Miss Xavier's excuse, Erwin felt that the other party might not have seen any flaws, but should have felt that the three adventurers were unstable factors, so he deliberately came to keep an eye on them.

"It turns out that Mr. Xavier is also adventurous, and I am honored to be an adventurer, and I can't wait to talk to you about these things......" Erwin said as he looked around the hall with his eyes.

Baron Xavier, who was probably in his forties, was sitting at the same table with his wife and Hubert, while the head of the Flame Lion Mercenary Regiment was sitting at another table not far from them, but at the same table with him were several of Baron Xavier's bodyguards. And some of the people in the caravan and the mercenary group who were quite good were also escorted by one or two barons.

It turned out that it had already been arranged in secret and unconsciously! Erwin smiled lightly, and said in his heart that these guys are really organized and disciplined.

In order to disgust these two guys who came to stalk him, Erwin specially picked out an old woman's footcloth-like stinky, long, and boring adventure story, which made everyone drowsy, as if they were chanting scriptures in front of Tang monks, during which this was called Lyle. Xavier, the son of a nobleman who was very interested in adventure, had a look of impatience on his face that could not be concealed, and he almost excused himself several times to leave, but in the end he endured it.

The feast lasted for more than a quarter as the caravan guards and mercenaries, who had eaten and drunk, went out to replace the rest of the yard who were guarding the goods and the horses.

Overall, it was a harmonious and successful evening feast, the first half of course, for the caravans and mercenaries, and the second half for the barons and the others, if not for Erwin's here.

"Mr. Erwin, why don't you drink soup? Don't you like it? With a tired smile on her face, Jenny asked Erwin with concern, but she had already made up her mind that she would sew the mouth of this chattering adventurer with thread.

"Oh? Are you talking about these soups? Erwin picked up the spoon and tasted it, and Illya was stunned when she saw it, she remembered that Erwin told herself several times not to drink the soup, not to take a sip, why did she drink it herself?

Feeling the delicious sweet soup slip down his throat, Erwin opened the status bar of the game system with his eyes.

Two icons appear as Erwin takes a sip of the soup, one of which is a picture of a half-nibbled bread, indicating that he is eating. The other icon depicts a turquoise glass bottle with a large white X on it, which is constantly flashing, indicating chronic poisoning.

If the icon is always there, it is in progress, and if it is constantly flashing, it means that it is about to end or is about to be lifted.

This move proved that Erwin was eight times the body of an ordinary person, and was able to easily digest this spoonful of soup with chronic poison.

"It's a delicious soup, but it's sweet, it's a shame." Erwin put down his spoon and smiled apologetically at Jenny.

Seeing that Erwin finally drank the soup, Jenny smiled from the bottom of her heart and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Erwin to dislike sweet, why don't you let the kitchen make a soup with other flavors for you, and your companion doesn't like to drink soup either?" ”

"Hehe, don't bother, and my companion doesn't like soup very much." Erwin smiled and declined, hearing him say this, Illya, who was about to quietly take a sip of the soup, could only give up the idea in distress.

And the person who reacted to Erwin's words was not only Illya, but also Lyle who was sitting next to Erwin. Xavier, he immediately brushed aside Erwyn, who had drunk the soup, and focused his attention on Illya, who was not drinking the soup, who was putting the sixth cheesecake into his mouth.

At this moment, a mercenary not far away got up from his seat, I don't know if he was going to go to the toilet or where, but when he stood up, his limbs were sore, and his strength seemed to have disappeared, and he staggered to the ground.

This caught the attention of the rest of the hall, and two mercenaries tried to help the disgraced creature away, but they did the same when they got up from their seats, slumping to the ground on all fours.

"Strange, can you get drunk when you drink wine?" Jenny turned her head to look at the other side and said with a smile.

"Some people who don't drink alcohol probably get drunk from wine, but I think they are due to chronic poisons." Erwin also stared at that side and said.

The smile on Jenny's face immediately froze, not only her, but the people sitting at this table were all stunned for a moment after hearing Erwin's words.

The next moment, everyone in the hall heard a loud "bang".

The three men in the corner were working almost simultaneously.

Lyle. Xavier jerked himself out of his seat, and a dagger flickered with cold light appeared in his hand, stabbing at Illya, who had not drunk the soup.

But as soon as his figure moved, a bright sword light flashed in front of him, and then he felt a pain in his chest, and blood splattered in all directions.

The attack turned out to be from the young man who had drunk the soup.

Erwin drew his sword with great speed and stabbed Lyle who tried to pounce in front of him. Xavier's chest, but he didn't have time to draw the sword out of his sword, Lyle. Jenny behind Xavier had already kicked the bottom of the table, knocking the entire table upside down, and pressing down on Erwin and Illya.
