Chapter 487: Admission
Originally, I thought I could chat with Barot for a few more words and ask about the current situation, but after Barot sat down, Su Wen realized that he couldn't get into the chat of several girls at all.
Every time he wanted to speak, a girl rushed ahead of him, leading up to a topic that interested several other people, and this conversation lasted for several minutes.
Su Wen listened to the topics that he didn't understand at all, so he could only look at the guests in a daze, muttering in his heart where they heard their topics from. Kuntu next to him was also in a daze like Su Wen, but compared to Su Wenlai, Kuntu's performance was obviously more uncomfortable, probably because he still hadn't adapted to the atmosphere in the brightly lit banquet hall.
After a while, Roland and Shirley, who didn't know who first found out that their sister was missing, searched for a long time, and found Barot and the surprising figure next to her in a corner. The two of them didn't even care about their friends, so they ran over directly and said hello to Su Wen.
Probably due to the generation gap, Roland and Shirley had no interest in the topic of Ellie's chat, but just gathered around Su Wen and excitedly asked Su Wen about the details of the gray giant.
It seems that the Snow Castle sisters and brothers, in private, have already decided that the terrifying monster was solved by Su Wen.
What Su Wen didn't know was that the names of their group had actually been written on the briefing on the day of the disaster, and it had been passed on to all the fiefdom nobles in the empire.
The Snow Castle siblings learned from this briefing.
"That's great, we can go all the way back to the academy tomorrow, after all, school will start tomorrow...... Wow. ”
As soon as he talked about the start of school, Roland couldn't stop sighing, it seemed that he was not looking forward to the start of school.
"So whether you can do your homework or not, I won't help you in vain when school starts first......" Shirley glared at Roland, a little gloating.
"Why don't you do it. Roland said with a smile, not looking panicked at all.
Probably on the holiday homework, there are some hole cards, such as agreeing with a classmate to borrow him to copy it, or simply help him complete it.
Among the non-comprehensive departments of Imperial College, the requirements for homework are also relatively relaxed. But it also depends on the teacher, such as Su Wen, when he left the academy, he didn't leave homework for the students under his command at all, which made those students who were eligible to get the combat practice course elective once again sigh their luck.
Of course, Roland is almost at the age of "understanding what convenience his identity can provide for himself", and whether he will use this convenience on his holiday homework depends on him personally.
About ten minutes after the Snow Castle siblings arrived at the venue, as the music sounded, the master of ceremonies began to organize the guests who had arrived early to be seated, and the seats were located in a back row area near the gate.
A front-row area near the interior of the venue was still empty, and these positions were reserved for those who were about to arrive next.
Then, as if they had agreed, some of the guests walked in through the door of the banquet hall in a queue, and the master of ceremonies would report the identity of each person who came in.
This situation reminded Su Wen of the red carpet behavior in the original world, and under the watchful eye, these people with unusual identities did show their confident and calm side. As for whether the heart is swollen with ecstasy or calm as water, it is not known to outsiders.
"Count Oswales, welcome!" the master of ceremonies' voice immediately caught Su Wen's attention.
Su Wen looked at the somewhat familiar middle-aged man who appeared at the door, to be honest, Su Wen had long forgotten the appearance of the Count of Osworth, and what he remembered was just this name.
However, the female companion next to the Earl of Oswald was a little concerned.
The earl's original wife died at an early age, leaving only a few heirs, and never remarried. The woman who accompanied the Count of Auschweth was a rather stunning beauty, and her appearance, compared with the beauties on the royal side, had a little more of a different atmosphere, which made people unconsciously take a few more looks.
And this beauty is none other than Vera.
It is natural that Osworthy could not be an ordinary person who could bring him to such an occasion, so these guests also began to guess the identity of this beautiful woman.
The Earl of Oswales, like the other important guests, did not sit down directly, but stopped to say hello to a few acquaintances in the back seat on the way to his seat.
And Vera was also keenly aware of Su Wen's existence.
Facing Vera's almost "surprised" gaze, Su Wen just smiled and waved his hand, which was regarded as a greeting.
Su Wen wasn't worried at all that Vera had any other intentions when she came to this banquet, probably because her deal with the Earl of Oswelth hadn't been negotiated yet.
"Do you know Vera??" Barrot turned her head and looked at Su Wen in surprise.
"Hmm, do you know her?" Su Wen was also a little surprised.
"It's a ...... acquaintance," Barodo nodded, and said, "When I arrived in the afternoon, she was one of the people who came to pick up Sister Marlena......
I guess we were discussing something to do with the Black Rope Society...... However, Su Wen didn't know what stage the cooperation between Snow Castle and the Black Rope Society, or the mutual use, or even the degree of control, had reached.
Being able to properly master such an unseen force as the Black Rope Society is also a big challenge for Marina. And no one seems to care about the moral issues involved.
Or rather, I just don't care about it for the time being.
After having a deeper understanding of Marina, in the future, whether she took over the Black Rope Society through various means and wisdom, or used the power in her hands to eliminate the Black Rope Society, it was not an accident for Su Wen.
"Dean Edgar, welcome!" the master of ceremonies' voice rang out again.
Oh, another acquaintance.
Su Wen followed everyone's gaze and looked at the door.
The identity of the head of the Imperial Academy is much more important than these nobles, not to mention, Edgar is still a rare diamond-level powerhouse. Most of these early admissions are students, and most of them are those who have already enrolled or are about to enroll. Even those who didn't have the chance to enter the Imperial Academy looked at Edgar with the same respect.
Edgar walked all the way, and there was a "Hello Dean" all the way, and these young students who greeted each other were some simply paying attention to etiquette, while others wanted to leave a little impression in the heart of the dean.
Although this little impression may not have a practical effect, it can at least satisfy these students on a psychological level.
As Edgar walked, he nodded frequently to the students on either side.
"Hello Dean!" Roland and Shirley also shouted the long-brewing hello. For the two siblings, this is just a simple greeting.
Edgar, who was originally light and breezy, suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Su Wen, who was sitting behind the two siblings, after nodding to the two......
"Hi. Su Wen waved his hand and said hello with a smile. His attitude is no different from that of Vera just now.
Edgar paused slightly, and stopped talking, but in the end, he still looked at Su Wen with meaningful eyes, and then walked to his seat. However, after sitting down, he had no intention of greeting others, but looked back at Su Wen frequently, and it seemed that there were too many questions to ask Su Wen.
A small episode just now naturally made many keen people aware of it. And the eyes they looked at Su Wen were also a little more curious and surprised.
"Su Wen, some people keep looking at us. ”
Ellie was also aware of these gazes, and said to Su Wen with some concern.
"I'm not looking at you, don't care. ”
Su Wen didn't know what was wrong with his answer, so he slapped Ellie's soft pink fist, and then looked at Ellie suspiciously. However, Ellie looked to the side, looking a little unhappy.
This...... What is it?teenage vanity or something??
After thinking about it for a while, Su Wen could only attribute the reason for this punch to this.
