Chapter Twenty-Five: Garcia of the Banco Empire

The efficiency of the mansions of the great nobles was high. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Needless to say, having received a letter from Viscount Garcia a week ago, the efficiency of the Luther family could easily prepare a lavish feast even if it was only one morning. This is the essence of the great aristocracy.

By noon, Dirk had gone to the gate of the manor to wait. Fiona also changed her clothes, which was different from the lively and cute dress before. This time, she changed into a dress with a family medal and pattern. This dress is different from the dinner dress, it is a complete set of pants dress, which is quite masculine.

But as the Luther family, which has achieved its reputation with military strength, this is very much in line with its own positioning.

The visit of Viscount Garcia. There seems to be something important. Generally speaking, the Viscount's visit to the Duke, which was ceremoniously solemn and extravagant by the Luthers, was obviously unruly. But Garcia himself is the heir to the great nobility of Bancor, the son of Prince Sonas. Such a courtesy becomes a matter of course.

Egret is also required to change into a knight's gown, and as Nina's guardian knight, he must also attend the luncheon. I don't know where Nina got a pure white knight's dress, after putting it on, the egret's body is straight, and the whole person is much more energetic.

"Well, it looks pretty good. Even Fiona complimented.

Nina also changed into a dress similar to Fiona, which was even more heroic. It's just that unlike Fiona, the pattern and color of the clothes have also changed to gold.

Looking at the egret's curious eyes, Nina said vaguely: "Ambra advocates force, so the aristocratic dress is more like a military uniform." ”

The three of them chatted for a while, and the butler Dirk knocked on the door.

"Young Lord Fiona, Miss Nina, Your Excellency Egret, the luncheon is ready. Viscount Garcia has also arrived. Please move to the banquet hall. ”

Fiona pursed her lips, she had never had the consciousness of wanting to see Viscount Garcia from the beginning. However, Garcia's family has a deep friendship with his own family, and if he pushes it off for no reason, he will definitely be cleaned up by his father who is far away in the territory.

Prince Sonas's entire family has declined a lot in this generation. The overall power is far less than when it was brilliant, that is, the reputation is still there. Fiona couldn't think of any other exchange of interests between her family and Viscount Garcia.

That being said, but etiquette does have to be ensured.

Without too much delay, the three of them, led by Fiona, stepped into the banquet hall together. The music that announced the beginning of the banquet also sounded.

The scope of the banquet is not large, so it is a table meal. Dirk, the butler, stood at the door of the banquet hall and snapped his fingers lightly. Then the side door of the banquet hall opened, and a group of maids rushed out and began to serve the food.

Viscount Garcia, who was a guest, stood up first. Across the aristocratic long table, he saluted Fiona.

"Honorable Miss Fiona, I am Garcia from Bancor. When we meet for the first time, we will give you a famous sword - Lucy's gaze. Hope you will enjoy it. ”

Garcia is a slender young man who appears to be very energetic. The appearance is handsome, and there is a strong confidence between the eyebrows. This is the spirit that has been cultivated in a superior position for a long time.

However, Garcia behaved humbly, reaching out to his men behind him to hand Dirk a rectangle-looking sword box, and stood there waiting for Fiona to accept the gift.

Don't think that Fiona is a noble lady who has no combat power, or that as long as she is a nobleman, both men and women, will be trained to fight at an early age. The standard of training is at least to be formally employed.

And if it can't reach this level, the aristocratic family itself will deal with it, and it will be separated from its own family. It can be said that there are three standards that must be met as a nobleman, etiquette, combat power, and appearance.

Yes, as an empire standing in front of people and being respected, if he is ugly and not liked by the people, this will probably not be recognized. The current aristocratic class is more privileged than in ancient times, but rather a privileged political star class.

Fiona also uses a sword, but instead of a special projection sword like Nina, it is a magic sword with additional attributes. Most of today's weapons have their own unique magical abilities. It's like a variety of different styles of firearms, with different calibers and performances.

And the one in front of Fiona is a legendary weapon with a title. Like the backlight of the egret, it has its special attribute skills. Fiona opened the sword case, and a bayonet sword with a sky-blue sheen lay neatly in the box.

"It seems that Viscount Garcia's family is rich, and the exchange of ceremonial gifts between countries will not reach this level when they meet and give legendary weapons. Instead of picking up the sword, Fiona said, "I can't guarantee you what promises or help you will give me in the next words." So you still have to think carefully before deciding whether to send it or not. ”

Fiona's words are obviously estranged, and she has not seen any friendship between the two families for a long time, and she will not put it now. It may be because Viscount Garcia's request is too difficult to fulfill, so he was pushed to his place by his father. Make your own decisions, and whether the outcome is or not, the Luther family will approve of it.

"I came this time, firstly, because our two families have a deep relationship, but due to some historical reasons, they are separated into two empires. Adhering to the feelings of the previous family, I specially came to meet the Luther family, hoping that the friendship will last forever. Garcia said slowly, "Besides, I have a troublesome matter that needs the help of the Luthers. Of course, it was a problem for a nobleman like me whose family was in decline, but for the Luthers, it was nothing more than a trivial matter. ”

Garcia did not ask for the legendary weapon sent back, but instead said something like this, proving that he had thought it through, whether the other party agreed or not, it would not affect Garcia's willingness to have a good relationship with the Luther family.

"Well, you're welcome. Viscount Garcia. I hope you'll enjoy Ambra's unique honey dishes. Fiona waved her hand, and the maid removed the gift. Meals were then served for everyone.

Regardless, Fiona had a good impression of Garcia's first meeting. Otherwise, with this girl's character, I'm afraid she would have ignored or driven people away.

The meal was very quiet, and even if Fiona didn't introduce Nina and the egret, Garcia gestured slightly and drank a glass of wine together, without neglecting anyone.

Should we say that they are nobles? Or rather, this is the style of aristocracy. Egret silently thought, so in this way, whether it is Fiona or Nina, they are both guys with different personalities among the nobles. Maybe it's because both of them are alone that the relationship is so close.

Egret doesn't think there's anything wrong with thinking so. The world in which he lives is in the stage of the information explosion, and it is already a model of special case.

After the meal, several people sat down in the living room together. At this time, Fiona asked, "So, let's talk about the 'little things that don't bother you'." ”

Garcia sat down without showing any fear, and said without humility or arrogance: "Presumably Miss Fiona should know that both your and I families are the inheritors of the ancient dragon bloodline. Although the power in the bloodline has been weak and ineffective, the location of the ancient inheritance has never been broken. ”

"That's true. Fiona nodded, if there was no family inheritance, the Luther family would be just ordinary nobles. However, the technology and wealth inherited in ancient times have enabled the family to establish a strong military force, which has the strength to be looked up to by others.

"But in recent years, there have been some problems with the family's inheritance. Garcia frowned, looking genuinely annoyed. "In the territory of the inheritance back then, the place that was originally open for learning suddenly appeared demonized creatures. ”

"If it's an ordinary demonized creature, it can be solved with the power of the family itself, but this appearance is indeed a high-level demonized puppet. The strength is equivalent to the elite professional at the legal level, and the number is more than 20 horses. ”

At this, Garcia sighed. "This level of strength is already comparable to the Royal Guard in Banko. ”

"I've organised a couple of attacks before I've come here. It's a pity that each time it loses more completely. This group of demonized puppets has different professions, and they also have strong intelligence, and they are no different from ordinary people in terms of combat judgment and skill application. Therefore, I would like to ask the Luther family to send an elite to help me reclaim the Land of Inheritance. ”

"Are you kidding?" Fiona's expression seemed to see some idiot, "20 or more elite demonized puppets of the legal level? Our family can't help you much. ”

Garcia was not disappointed or angry, and continued to say steadily: "Of course, it will not let the Luther family contribute in vain. In the land of my family's heritage, there are many ancient technologies that we can share with the Luther family if we can reclaim them. Moreover, there is also the manufacturing method of the matte-grade magic energy reactor!"

Fiona's eyes lit up, but she was quickly suppressed. "Well, that kind of thing has all kinds of inheritances. Our Luther family also has its own blueprints for the manufacture of magic energy reactors, and this technology is not very attractive. ”

Miss Fiona laughed. Garcia said confidently, "The matte-level magic energy reactor can only be obtained from the abandoned magic guide machinery in the major ruins, not to mention the Luther family, even if it is the central research institute of the six empires, it is impossible to have a manufacturing method." ”

"Cut, even if you're right. How do I know if you really have one in that ruin? Fiona raised an eyebrow, her voice scornful.

"Proof is always there. Garcia pulled out a drawing from his bosom of a hexagon-like mechanism.

Egret and Nina are both mechanically blind, and even if they do, they don't know what they are, but Fiona is different. This eldest lady, who has been in contact with machinery and magic energy reactors since childhood, can see at a glance that this is a high-level magic energy reactor made with a special process. Although there is only a drawing part on the front, it is very well written with various parameters and indicators.

Fiona took it and looked at it for a while, then said, "Why didn't I see the back part, how do I know if it's really a matte-level magic energy reactor?"

"Miss Fiona, I am serious about discussing this matter with you. Garcia said slowly, "Between our two families, it seems that there is no need to use any tentative means. ”

Fiona was stunned for a moment, and then reluctantly put down the drawings in her hand. Only then did he say: "Viscount Garcia has come from afar, so it is better to rest in the mansion for a few days now." What you say is too high to be decided lightly. It just so happens that the biggest celebration of the Ambra Empire is about to begin, why don't you wait until the celebration of the five gods is over, and then I will give you an answer, okay?"

"Of course. Garcia politely said, "A deliberate decision is always a good start." I hope that Miss Fiona will give you the answer you are looking forward to. Then he stood up.

Fiona immediately called the maid and led Garcia out of the parlor and to the guest room.
