Chapter 151: The Manor Cocktail Party

readx;

Father Faulkner's appearance flashed in Fidel's mind, "My family doesn't need my protection, if it does, I will do my best to lend a hand, this will not conflict with my acceptance of the task of attacking the kingdom of Salins," Fidel said in the most serious tone, even Vittorio saw the indisputability in Fide's eyes for the first time, "Of course, in the case of ifs, because now we have no reason to attack that peaceful country." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½β€

Vittorio grabbed a handful of curls with his fingers and rubbed it as if checking the purity of the powder, "In the foreseeable future, there will definitely be civil strife in the Kingdom of Salins, and the three princes are all princes in their own right, such a situation is both fortunate and unfortunate for the people of the Kingdom of Salins. ”

As soon as Vittorio said this, Prince Walter, representing the Duchy of Deramain, entered the manor, and the guests who had been surrounding the delegation of the Kingdom of Salins immediately noticed Walter's arrivalβ€”and the group of guards behind Walter, each carrying a large wooden box covered with dried grass.

Feder watched quietly from a distance, and now the three princes of Walter and the border of the Three Duchyes encountered a lot of changes, the first change is that it has become taller. At that time, although Walter was wearing armor and riding a war horse, Fylde could feel that Walter still had a childish atmosphere, but now Walter has become a marriageable young man, a qualified nobleman, and is still very sociable and good at handling interpersonal relationships with all parties.

Walter had his men put the boxes on the stone pavement of the manor, and opened them all under the watchful eyes of everyone. Countless bottles of wine were lying quietly in the wooden box, there were white wines, red wines, and even rare pink wines, and many nobles immediately showed eager expressions, and gathered around the wooden boxes, discussing the vintage of the wine.

"These wines are among the finest in the Duchy of Deramain, and they have been stored in the best cellars of Winter City, and they are part of the congratulatory gifts that Archduke Webster has given you, so please drink them or take them with you. Walter's crisp voice and rich body language made all the guests feel the vitality of the prince. The bottles of wine were quickly distributed, and even the nobles who had been chatting with the delegation of the Kingdom of Salins were attracted to taste the wines of Winter City.

Vittorio was still holding a small glass of wine, but he glanced at the wine in the glass, and then at the "wine grabbing feast" over there, "Captain, I want to go get a bottle too." ”

Fed: "You also have a research on wine?"

"Although I am not yet an adult, as a businessman, drinking and socializing is a very important means of business communication," Vittorio took a sip of the wine in his glass and frowned, "Those nobles are people who are accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and have tasted all kinds of good wines, since they are all eager for the wines that Walter brings, then they must be... Commander, I won't say anything, the good wine is about to be snatched up!"

Fidel looked at Vittorio's brisk steps, not expecting that this reserved teenager would have something that interested him so much. Fett wasn't very interested in drinks, and there were many people who, like him, were not interested in drinks, and the Marquis of Ampvo was one of them.

"You're the leader of the Potato Mercenary Regiment, aren't you?" The Marquis, who was nearly two meters tall, walked up to Field's side, and the giant sword with the tip of the sword shining white light was also worn at his waist.

"Yes, I am. ”

"I've heard about you for a long time, you set up an ambush in Dry Sand City during the Battle of Dry Sand City, and you killed James and captured my men," Ampwo's tone was unhurried, as if he was gossiping about homely things, "but I don't care about it, because I believe that mercenaries are people who understand things and who can be worthy of service." ”

The Marquis of Ampvo was also a man who wanted to recruit his own mercenary group?Fid replied, "I'm working for Count Endrida in Dulum City right now. ”

Ampwo shook his head, "The people of the Duchy of Magini always like to be jealous of each other, but we in the Winter Kingdom are completely different, we will never forget the helpers, and you are the murderer of Carlos." ”

"Carlos, son of Horlow, the prime minister of the Eastern Oguna Empire?"

"Although that guy is a mediocre man, that old guy in Hollow will not forget this matter, he will definitely try his best to deal with you," Ampwo held the hilt of the sword with one hand, and Fidel already felt the thick murderous aura on the other party's body, "The war between our Kosai Kingdom and the East Oguna Empire has been protracted, if you can come to our aid, maybe you can also solve the person who wants to solve you by the way." ”

Feder thought for a moment and said, "I was about to return Carlos' enchanted greatsword to Prime Minister Hollow. ”

"What!?" Ampwo roared, causing a nearby maid to drop the cake she was holding on the ground, "Do you still want to reconcile with Horlow? Not to mention that the enchanted weapon you want to send back is a valuable sword, your simple thought alone is stupid enough!"

Of course, Fidel knew the power of the enchanted weapon, but after he left Doret City, he found that the enchanting power of the enchanted greatsword was about to be exhausted, and it was estimated that it had been stored in the locker had already become an ordinary weapon, and no longer had enchantment power. As for the plan to send the sword back, it was also an optional option, after all, Captain Jasmine had privately warned himself that making too many enemies would make it difficult for the Potato Mercenary Group to move an inch.

"If there is a chance, our potato mercenary group is still very happy to cooperate with the Kosai Kingdom. With that, Fidel glanced at Archon Barnes, who was in the distance with Barry, the second senator. Both the Marveil Republic and the Winter Kingdom wanted to recruit themselves, Lord Luthus of the Duchy of Noor and his childhood friend Eggsy found his childhood friend on behalf of his father, as well as politicians from the Western Oguna Empire and Saresa of the Eastern Oguna Empire, and all the countries of the continent once threw olive branches. Has the potato mercenary group really become strong enough to be noticed by everyone?

Ampvo snorted coldly, and he left a sentence before leaving, "The nobles of the Duchy of Magini just use you as a pawn to deal with the rebels, and they will abandon you when they run out!"

Fei De thought to himself that all employers who recruit mercenaries regard mercenaries as pawns, and if there is any place where mercenaries are not treated as pawns, it may only be the mercenary union, because that place is ruled by the head of the mercenary group.

The leaders of the Blue Flame Mercenary Group and the Beautiful Boy Mercenary Group did not appear in Feide's field of vision, and Fei De did not know those two people, but those two people probably knew him, and his target pillar priest had a good chance to be by the side of the two. As Fed prepares to go alone to find the Pillar Priest, Maev has regained her mood and returned to Fed's side. She didn't mention it again, and a smile appeared on her face, but Fed could notice that Maeve had drunk a lot, a little drunk.

"It's a gathering of the upper echelons, wine and refreshments, and cheeky, smiling socials," Maeve said, holding an empty glass in one hand, her cheeks flushed, "I can see you don't like this kind of occasion." ”

"Not very interested, really. ”

"Why don't we go boating over there?" Maeve pointed to the west side of the manor, where there was a lake, "We can avoid these politicians too." ”

Fed's eyes kept searching for the Pillar Priest, as if he hadn't heard Mave's advice.

"The lake over there is quiet, not as good as us..."

"I'm doing something very important, so," Fylde paused and looked at the dazed Maev, "so you can go rowing on your own." Feder just put down the sentence and continued walking, while Maev, who was stunned, felt a little sad, but she quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and quickly followed Fed.

There were more and more guests at the manor cocktail party, and many guests who followed the parade of floats also came here and devoted themselves to the socialization of the nobles. Vittorio also recognized Patrick as a show fighter, sipping pink wine while watching the aftermath of the manor. Walter began to talk with the nobles of various countries after distributing all the wine, but kept his distance from the delegation of the Kingdom of Salins, even his sister Winlith did not have much communication with the young third prince, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Winlith was not on Walter's side, not even Queen Rosemander.

Fed had already walked around the manor several times, except for Orlando, the leader of the beautiful boy mercenary group, who appeared in the corner of the manor, Toya, the leader of the Blue Flame mercenary group, and Pillar Priest, the leader of the Holy Spirit Mercenary Group, did not appear in the manor. Fed began to suspect that the information Russell had given to Ayana was wrong, otherwise why had all the important guests shown up, but the pillar priest had not yet arrived?

It wasn't long before the owner, the Duke of Aldington, and his wife appeared in the hall, and in addition to them, the newcomers, Lord Luthers and Margaret, also briefly appeared at the manor's reception. But Margaret was soon sent into the palace surrounded by servants, and she had to change her clothes, touch up her makeup, and rest for the great feast that evening.

"Meryl, the feast for the commoners can begin," the Duke of Aldington instructed Meryl, the female officer who was still talking and laughing with Rosemund, "Also, you are solely responsible for the banquet of the commoners in the city today, and you don't have to worry about the dinner in the palace." ”

Fylde looked at Meryl, the flamboyant female officer was not dissatisfied, she smiled at her sister and walked away from the manor cocktail party, without even glancing at Fed, who was standing aside.

"Head Field, we finally have a chance to meet," a man's voice came from behind Field, and Fielder and Mayf immediately turned back, "I'm Lord Luthers, are you satisfied with the drinks here?"

"Quite satisfied. Maev replied in place of the unsociable Fed.

"That's good, I'm entangled in too many things, so I'm only now having time to meet with Captain Fidel, and I'm sure Captain Fid has been looking forward to meeting me all along, right?"

Fidel nodded.

"Are you looking forward to meeting my brother, the leader of the rebels, Rutz?"
