Chapter 1448: Demon Queen
In the hotel lobby, the atmosphere is a little awkward!
"Let's go!"
There is no need to look back, the blonde man also knows that those messengers are pointing at him and making fun of him, he just mocked people for not having an invitation, but he didn't expect to be punished immediately, the banquet of the queen and the duke, thinking with his knees, also knows which one is heavier.
Before he could go out, another middle-aged man came in, and the family badge on his chest directly indicated his identity.
"Isn't this Mortan butler?" the blonde man greeted with a smile, "You don't need to arrange a carriage to pick me up, just go to the banquet yourself." ”
The blonde man puffed up his chest, and it was also a privilege to be greeted by a butler sent by the Duke of Hanover, so he looked around as if he wanted to see the envious and jealous faces of the messengers.
"Sorry, the banquet has been cancelled. ”
The housekeeper explained what he meant.
"What?"
The blonde man froze, and a chuckle rang out all around, "What's going on?"
"Queen Cersei held a dinner party, invited many princes and princesses, as well as the children of wealthy and powerful families, and the duke was also going, so the dinner was postponed. ”
The butler left, "I'm sorry. ”
"Eh, wait!"
The blonde man chased after him for a few steps, but it was also in vain, what right could a steward who delivered a message have? and the duke, he would naturally go to the party that was most beneficial to him.
"Haha!"
The messengers couldn't hold back any longer, and let out a shocking laugh, and the blonde man really looked like a clown, and it was simply a humiliation for himself.
"Damn! Damn!"
The blonde man had no face to stay in the gold-encrusted roses, and made an excuse to leave, so angry that he almost broke his teeth.
Because it was not an official state banquet, it was not held at the Summer Sleep Palace in Twilight, but was arranged in the Red Fort in the western suburbs. It was the residence of Queen Cersei for her casual hunting.
When Downton arrived, there was already a lot of traffic in front of the castle, and there were many guests talking, facing the Queen's invitation, not to mention being late, at least an hour early.
The carriage came to a stop. His own well-trained servants brought in stirrups, opened the car doors, and acted with proper manners, revealing a delicate and elegant royal style.
Ordinary little nobles are here, and I am afraid they don't know which leg to take, but Downton and Elaine are no longer the country turtles in the morning fog and earthquake, and they will definitely not be rude and ridiculed.
"I haven't seen the family crest, whose son is this?"
"Wow. That girl is so pretty, I'm going to get to know her later!"
"What a handsome man, it's my dish!"
The guests looked at Downton and his party, the playboy's eyes wandering greedily over Elaine and Nicole, while the ladies and ladies peeked at Downton.
At the door, Downton handed over the invitation, as well as three gifts prepared.
"Your Highness Downton, Your Highness Elaine. Master Nicole, I wish the Queen good health. All the best!"
The head maid in charge of welcoming the guests shouted, which was also customary, introducing the identity of the guests so that everyone could get to know and talk.
"What? Downton, isn't that the one from Frankfurt?"
"Yes, the illegitimate son of the King of Brittany, the object of the scandal of His Highness Tilanxue. Princess Sissi's real boyfriend!"
"How dare this guy come to Twilight? Aren't you afraid of being killed by Heinrich?"
The guests looked at Downton, some curious, some surprised, and some inquisitive, compared to those third-rate nobles, at least they were all wealthy and powerful people who were qualified to stand here. Naturally, they were very well-informed, so they knew most of Downton's deeds.
A waiter brought wine.
"You can only drink juice!"
Downton brought Elaine a glass of champagne to each of them, and warned them to take the red wine Walnut.
"Okay!"
Little Lori pursed her mouth, but was quickly attracted by the desserts.
For certain purposes and fears, even if Downton is famous and legendary, no one comes to talk to him, just looks and observes from time to time.
"Twilight should show up, right?"
Looking at the bright moon, Downton was in a state of apprehension, who would have thought that the queen would put the banquet venue in this place? As for socializing, he was not in that mood at all.
Elaine quietly stayed by Downton's side, and Nicole and Hu Tao went to taste the food.
Finally, someone couldn't help it anymore and walked towards Downton.
"It's coming! It's coming!"
The guests were excited, and the long-awaited show arrived.
"His Royal Highness Downton, the second son of Archduke Ferdinand, heard about your experience, I am very envious, and now I hope to fight with you and verify my strength, please don't hesitate to give advice!"
It was a young man in his twenties who spoke, with a lofty attitude and a very low attitude, if he lost, there were steps down, and once he won, it would be a great honor.
Since Downton's defeat of Woodford and several heavyweight fights, he has become widely regarded as the first man under Heinrich and has become the step that many people want to step on and climb to the top.
Downton didn't answer, but turned his head to look over, and then looked around, and many people were eager to try.
In these worlds, most people are lucky, and many of the guests present, except for those who are narcissistic, know that they are not Downton's opponents, but they still want to challenge, after all, what if they win?
Isn't it the perfect stage for a royal banquet with a large number of magnates and dignitaries? Once Downton is defeated on such a high-profile occasion, the name can spread throughout the continent's high society the next day.
These people will not die until they have suffered losses and shed blood, they are like moths to the fire, for the sake of those glory, one after another.
"I'm here to fight you!"
Elaine stepped forward, her brother was obviously absent-minded, not to mention that the horse had missed his front hoof, and it was not good to be injured, and he wanted to ensure his form against Heinrich.
"Sorry, not interested!"
Downton stopped his sister.
"I sincerely ask you for advice. ”
The young man's tone was sincere.
"I'm sorry!"
Downton refused.
The young man did not dwell on it, and seemed to have a kind attitude, but when the guy turned around and walked back towards his friends, he spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders. It is a bit intriguing to put on a picture that the other party should not fight, and I have no choice but to do it.
It was as if he would win the duel.
"These nobles are so scheming!"
Elaine pouted.
"It doesn't matter. ”
Downton doesn't care, let's be honest. Duel with these people is simply a matter of losing his value, not Saint Aoxun, not the god of war, and he is not even qualified to challenge him.
In the corner, Princess Anna, who was held by the stars, dispersed the flattering men and looked at the girl wearing a purple Venetian mask beside her.
"What's wrong with you?"
Since Downton appeared, the girl's momentum had changed, that dark oppression. It's scary.
"Just seeing a friend!"
The masked girl spoke in a cold tone.
"You know Downton?"
Anna asked, this girl is Heinrich's younger sister, it is said that she was sent to the secret realm since she was a child, and she did not return until her brother's recent wedding, and her strength is very strong, and in just one month, she defeated several rookies of the empire. Got the reputation of a demon queen.
The masked girl did not answer.
"Do you want to fight him?"
After Anna finished speaking, she didn't wait for the masked girl to agree. went straight to Downton, anyway, without her, there are other rookies in the empire present today, in short, the last time he suffered a loss, he must get it back today, so that Downton will make a fool of himself in front of everyone.
Kamen Girl hesitated. Still followed.
"Downton, we're meeting again. ”
Anna covered her red lips with a small fan and chuckled, looking familiar.
Downton nodded, in response. This cold attitude made Anna even more annoyed.
"This is ......"
Elaine looked at the masked girl suspiciously, as if there was some familiarity, and Downton's gaze was equally fixed.
"Let me introduce you to the Demon Queen, Heinrich's sister. ”
Anna introduced.
"Luckily!"
The masked woman spoke, her voice a little hoarse, and her body trembled uncontrollably, she avoided Downton's gaze, but then she felt that it was very weak, so she turned her head and stared at it fiercely.
"With all due respect, if you're not feeling well, find a place to rest!"
Downton was in no mood to act on the scene and was ready to stay away from Anna.
"Wait, the Demon Queen wants to challenge you!"
Anna tugged at Downton's sleeve.
"She's not the only one, I want to challenge too!"
A young man with a big back walked over and raised his glass to Downton, "Thank you for taking care of my family!"
"You ......"
Downton frowned, he could hear the hatred in the other man's words.
"You don't know the heirs of the Dupont family, should you say that you have no one in your eyes, or is your knowledge too short?"
A young man in a dark green military uniform walked over, which was very polite, but he had the qualifications.
"It's the general of the Rockefeller family!"
The eyes of the guests were immediately attracted, and noble backgrounds such as men in military uniforms and young men with backs were the focus of attention wherever they went.
"You want a duel?
A man with narrow eyes and a feminine appearance teleported directly over, tapped his little thumb, and tasted the red wine in the glass.
"He's from the Borgia family of Lombardy, and he's one of the rookies of the Empire!" Anna introduced, "Downton, it seems that you are very popular, so many people want to duel with you, so don't let everyone down!"
"And me!"
"Count me in!"
One after another the nobles came out one after another, these guys' calculations are very fine, Downton will definitely not duel with him, but if he has challenged, it represents seniority, and he can boast that he has challenged the first person under Heinrich in the future, and he will raise his own value.
Of course, there are some people who really want to fight, such as those rookies in the empire, but they can't wait to step on Downton's position.
"What? Do you want to fight?"
Hu Tao squeezed over from the crowd, and after glancing around, he frowned, "Even you miscellaneous fish dare to challenge the big brother?
"Whether it's trash fish or not, you have to fight it to find out!"
The man on the back sneered, "In short, I'm not like some people, I don't even dare to fight!"
"Okay, I'll duel with you. Hu Tao licked the ice cream with a look of contempt, "I can't even pass this level, don't look for my big brother." ”
"Little sister, are you weaned?"
The man on the back ridiculed, causing a lot of laughter, there are many people who can't get used to Downton, such a good opportunity, I don't seize the ridicule, I'm sorry for myself. (To be continued.) )
