Chapter 68: The Prom
It was a grand court ball to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the end of the brutal Seven Years' War.
Most of the people attending the ball were either rich or noble, with men wearing tuxedos and bow ties, and ladies and ladies gathering in twos and threes with wine glasses to talk and laugh.
The music and dance floor in the center is filled with dancing men and women, and melodious classical music wafts through the venue.
At the front is a well-known musical troupe specially invited by the royal family to help the fun, where there are literary young people with curly hair and playing the violin, as well as beautiful women with noble temperament playing the piano, and in front of it is a white-haired old man who is dancing impassionedly with a baton.
The musical troupe plays a cheerful symphony in unison.
As soon as Sieg stepped into the ball hall, he was greeted by an old acquaintance.
"How does it feel to have a Happy March, a piece from the Classical Revival era?" Jon walked over to Sigurt with a glass of wine and a smile. He seemed to be well-dressed tonight, his hair combed and shiny, and he wore some perfume.
"Sounds good. Sieg nodded calmly, so that he would not say that he didn't understand music at all.
"Thank you for what happened last time. Jon took a glass of red wine from the waiter who walked by, handed it to Sieg, and said, "I've always wanted to go to look for you, but I've been out on a mission these days, and I haven't come back until now." ”
Sigurt knew that he was talking about things in the gluttonous world, and immediately shook his head and said, "You are serious, if you didn't hold that evil spirit back, I wouldn't have had a chance to plot against him." ”
Jon said, "One yard to one yard, in short, I owe you a life, if you need my help in the future, just come to me." ”
When Sig saw him like this, he didn't say much.
"Miss Fanny is over there, you'd better get there. Jon winked his eyebrows and said, "Of course, there are a lot of bees around her, so you have to take good care of it." ”
"You're crooked. Sieg said speechlessly.
"Hehe, let's go, I'll take you there. Jon didn't think so, he was born into a wizard family, so he naturally knew what this guardian knight was. Generally speaking, when a noble girl chooses a guardian knight, she actually recruits her subordinates. Among them, there are often some long-term lovers, and it is logical to become lovers.
The strength of this world is respected, and the status of powerful women is not inferior to that of men, and some powerful female mysteries even openly recruit faces, and no one dares to say anything.
Passing through the crowd, Sieg followed Jon to the edge of the dance floor, where he saw Fanny.
This woman was very beautiful tonight, shining as bright as the stars, completely covering the female companions around her.
Around Fanny was a handsome, well-dressed teenager, including Sissel.
Sissel was wearing a tuxedo today, standing next to Fanny, staring at the man who came to talk to him with a cold face.
When there was no one, Sig Fang walked over and greeted with a smile, "Miss Fanny, you are so charming tonight,"
No matter what, after all, she is her nominal backer, and the relationship still has to be better.
"Sig, you're finally willing to come out of your little room. Fanny drank a little wine tonight, blushed slightly, and laughed, "Hey, why do I think you seem to be a little more handsome?"
"Hahaha, Miss is really good at complimenting. Sieg said noncommittal.
He has now reached the quasi-first level, and both his appearance and temperament have begun to change slowly.
"Come here, I'll introduce you. Fanny grabbed a young girl's hand and smiled at Sieg, "This is my cousin, Tess." ”
The girl named Tess was a little shy, her face was slightly red, she pulled up the corner of her skirt and squatted down slightly and saluted, "Hello Mr. Sige." ”
Sieg also smiled and said, "Hello, beautiful young lady." ”
He noticed that the girl didn't seem to be a mystic, but just an ordinary mortal.
Not every child of the sorcerer family will have the power of bloodline, and some branches have long since lost the bloodline of sorcerers because of their perennial intermarriage with mortals.
This girl named Tess should be in this situation.
The group then chatted a few words, and Sieg gave a rough account of what he had seen and heard at Redbridge University, including the deeds of Professor McLaren, who Fanny cared about the most.
Fanny's words also seem to reveal a hint of unusual information, I am afraid that in the near future, her mentor Henry will personally settle in Hongqiao University, and then a large number of mysteries will pour into the university to completely rectify the rampant revolutionary party here.
Under the strong pressure of the Wilden family, the headmaster, who was hand-eyed, could not do anything but accept rectification.
The melodious music reaches its climax at this moment, and a couple of men and women dance on the dance floor.
And Fanny also met the inviter at this moment, a fair-skinned teenager with no trace of blood, and even a little sick.
He walked up to Fanny, bent down gracefully and stretched out his hand, and the gentleman invited: "Beautiful young lady, I am the third in line to the Lyon family, I wonder if I can dance with you?"
Fanny smiled and stretched out her hand and said, "Of course you can." ”
The sick young man smiled and shook Fanny's hand, and the two laughed and talked, and walked onto the dance floor together.
Sissel watched this scene, pursed his lips and did not make a sound, and wanted to rush out to do something several times, but he held back. Then he still watched Miss Fanny from the periphery, quietly guarding her.
Sieg looked at the man, inexplicably speechless.
Sissel ...... It's really a green grassland overhead......
Of course, Sieg also knew that Sissel was probably a little helpless in his heart. Fanny's status is too far from him, and it is impossible to love him alone.
But Sissel himself is an extremely infatuated person, and even if he does not get Miss Fanny's love, he will still silently protect her behind her back.
"Mr. Seeger...... Can we dance together? At this time, the maiden named Tess seemed to pluck up her courage and reached out to Sigurd.
She wore a double ponytail, she was a little young, and at the moment a cloud appeared on her face, and she was a little shy. The Wilden family's bloodline is excellent, and although Tess is not a mystic, it gives her a delicate facial feature.
"Sorry, I can't dance. Siggy shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.
He really didn't know how to dance, but Tess obviously misunderstood something, thinking that Sieg deliberately shirked it, and withdrew his hand in embarrassment: "Since that's the case, then don't bother." ”
With that, he trotted away.
Sieg didn't bother to explain anything, he looked at the girl's departing back, didn't chase after it, and took a sip of the red wine in his glass.
