Chapter 81: Invitation
While waiting, Miss Winnie kept picking faults: "Uncle Duke, look at the soldier on duty, he doesn't even have a decent leather armor, what kind of body he has become with his chest and belly exposed." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 InfoDid the baron deliberately want his soldiers to show off their figures?"
The Duke Baron did not echo Miss Winnie, his eyes stayed on the round shield and spear in the hands of the Spartan warrior, Duke Baron bet that according to his years of business experience, those two weapons and equipment were definitely excellent master quality, if he was a skilled warrior, these two pieces of equipment alone were enough to protect himself and kill the enemy, and there was no need for other burdens.
Thinking of this, Baron Duke's eyes shrank, but it could be seen from the two soldiers guarding the door. I am afraid that the legend that he and Crown Prince Raymond infiltrated the southern provinces and captured the long-established Storm Sword Grand Duke Wagner may not be as popular as people think.
In a short time, the butler Sean greeted them warmly, and welcomed Baron Duke and Miss Winnie with aristocratic courtesy, and apologized to them repeatedly, saying that Baron Leo was glad to know their arrival, and was bathing and ordering a feast to be prepared for the two distinguished guests.
The butler Sean's standard aristocratic demeanor made Miss Winnie unable to find fault with anything, so she had to endure it, maintain her noble lady's demeanor and say hello to Sean, and follow Baron Duke into the castle.
Leo was very interested in the visit of the two nobles, and he could finally find an excuse to get rid of the headache of being talked about by Uncle Potter all day, and he could also see what the real aristocratic life was like from these two.
After serving refreshments to the two distinguished guests, the butler Sean came to Leo's side and made up for Leo's identity as the two guests: "These two are from the Brontë family in Silverstone. The Brontë family, like the Covinus family, was knighted for their military exploits, and because several generations of family heads were shrewd, the Brontë family had become one of the several nobles in Silverstone, and was quite famous in the northern part of the empire. ”
"This visit was made by Baron Duke, the younger brother of the contemporary Viscount Brontë, and Miss Winnie, the most cherished daughter of the Viscount Brontë. The fact that these two came to visit in person shows that the Brontë family still attaches great importance to you. ”
As Miss Winnie pickily pinched a piece of fluffy pastry with two fingers, looked at the slightly rough surface, and put it back on the plate in disgust, Shaun, the butler, walked in from outside the hall with a noble boy. Miss Winnie hurriedly straightened up reflexively, the disgusted expression just now disappeared completely, and she looked at the aristocratic boy with a standard aristocratic smile on her face.
"Baron Duke, Miss Winnie, let me introduce you to the two of you, this is our lord, Baron Leo!" Sean politely introduced the owner of the castle to his guests.
Leo also greeted Duke and Winnie respectively according to aristocratic etiquette, and the awkward aristocratic courtesy made Miss Winnie even more disdainful. However, Miss Winnie felt that Leo was unexpectedly handsome.
The original Leo was thin and cowardly, and even if he was put into the crowd, he was inconspicuous. And after Leo crossed over, under the guidance of Feng Xifan, he diligently cultivated his internal skills to nourish himself and practiced swordsmanship to exercise his body, so now Leo has beautiful eyebrows and a slender and sturdy body, and he is alive and well with a standard model body, with Sean's special aristocratic dress, he is definitely a handsome and chic nobleman.
Out of the handsomeness that Leo had expected to be, Miss Winnie involuntarily widened her almond eyes and opened her mouth slightly, and this look of surprise was particularly delicate and lovely.
Seeing that Miss Winnie was slightly out of shape, Baron Duke coughed lightly, and after waking Winnie awake, he greeted Winnie with a smile on his face and said enthusiastically: "I have long heard that the empire has produced a young talent, who followed the crown prince to infiltrate the south to capture the Grand Duke alive and made immortal achievements. I've long wanted to see Yingcai, but today I really deserved my name!"
For Baron Duke's praise, Leo was not complacent, but modestly bowed slightly and humbly excused himself, which made Baron Duke look up to him even more.
Miss Winnie on the side came back to her senses and looked at the humble and polite Leo, her beautiful eyes flashing with a gleam in her eyes. At this time, I don't feel vulgar when I look at Leo's not-so-standard aristocratic etiquette, I just think it's quite cute.
"Baron Leo, we are here to invite you to the Harvest Festival to be held in Silverstone next week!" Miss Winnie said her invitation to Leo in a coquettish voice, and the sweetness in her tone made Baron Duke next to him stunned, and he glanced at Miss Winnie strangely, but did not make a sound.
"Harvest Sacrifice!" Leo was in a trance when he heard the term, and he recalled the content of the Harvest Sacrifice in Leo's memory. Among the many gods in this plane, the most widespread and popular believer is the harvest goddess who is in charge of crops, although the power of the priesthood is not strong, and the god position is not high, but it is a god that other races on the continent cannot do without except for some pure predatory races.
Every autumn when the crops are harvested, whether it is the human kingdom or the orc tribes, grand ceremonies are held in various places to celebrate the harvest and thank the goddess for her rewards.
As one of the best human empires on the mainland, the Waru Empire also maintains this traditional activity, especially in the northern region, where every harvest of crops means that there will be fewer people who will freeze to death and starve to death this winter, so Silverstone City has always attached great importance to the harvest festival. It was the Brontë family who presided over the harvest festival this year, so the family sent two important people to invite the lords from all over the world to Silverstone.
"Beautiful Miss Winnie!" Leo curled the corners of her lips as soon as he spoke. "It is a great pleasure to be invited by the two and the Brontë family, and I am personally honoured to be invited to participate in the harvest festival. ”
"So you've agreed to attend, and we'll see you next week in Silverstone!" Miss Winnie said happily.
"Of course, who would be willing to refuse an invitation from such a beautiful young lady?" Leo complimented with the standard lines that had appeared in previous film and television dramas.
Baron Duke watched the conversation between the two young men and women, and secretly raised his impression of Leo again in his heart, and it seemed that the two were quite fated to be able to coax his niece so happily.
Thinking of this, Baron Duke's heart suddenly moved, Leo was the same age as Winnie, and he was young and promising, and he was knighted and fiefdom with his own merits before he was twenty years old, which was indeed a good match.
