Chapter XXXIII, The Assassination at the Banquet
Ye Xun didn't have to think about it to know that it must be a banquet organized by Robin in order to welcome Alyssa, and he kept complaining in his heart that the other party was brainless. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this very moment, I don't want to hide Alyssa, and I am still so high-profile, as if I am afraid that the enemy will not know where Alyssa is.
This kind of chaotic banquet was clearly a chance for the assassins to commit murder, and thinking of the strange Aldo that night, Ye Xun felt a sense of worry in his heart.
In the end, Ye Xun gritted his teeth, stood up and walked out of the attic, and walked towards the banquet hall, even if he was dissatisfied with Old Robin, it had nothing to do with Alyssa.
Since he decided to protect the other party, then he must do it, and send Alyssa to the Elven Forest safely, until then, he will not allow anyone to hurt the other party.
At the same time that Ye Xun was heading to the banquet hall, in the brightly lit hall, the local nobles of Yodel City had already visited one after another to attend the banquet that Robin had specially organized to celebrate Elisa.
The male aristocrats, each wearing a straight dress, no matter how old they are, want to show the best side of the princess, and many of them are eager to take this opportunity to win the princess's favor.
As for those aristocratic ladies and ladies, they were also dressed up in fancy and glamorous, they had long heard of Alyssa's good name, and they didn't want to be compared to each other.
For this banquet, Alyssa refused at first, but Robin continued to insist on his opinion, and used it to inspire and motivate the nobles to fight.
Faced with such a reason, Alyssa naturally did not continue to object, only said that it was an extraordinary period and tried to simplify it as much as possible, but it was obvious that Robin did not listen to the other party's words.
Dressed in a floor-mopping white silk dress, Alyssa walked through the crowd, her hair had already been cleaned, revealing her original pure silver white, she was like a star holding the moon, and she would attract the attention of everyone around her wherever she went.
"Hello, beautiful Princess Elisa, your name is Sides Theon, and allow me to toast you on behalf of the Theon family. A nobleman in his twenties with long purple hair and a handsome face stepped forward and said to Alyssa.
He first kissed his hand elegantly, and then raised his glass to Alyssa, the whole process was full of aristocratic elegance, attracting the other girls around him to look sideways.
"This is a famous young man in our yodar city, who is said to have traveled to many places and made many powerful companions. Old Robin also said at this time.
"Sir Robin is right, my companions are here today, and I have the opportunity to introduce you to the princess, and I have heard that a mage has offended you, which is really unreasonable, and I ask you to rest assured that as long as your companions are present, no one can hurt you. Sides patted his chest and assured.
Alyssa wanted to explain the misunderstanding, but when she saw the other person's energetic eyes, she dispelled the idea, and it was obvious that the person named Side would not listen at this time.
"That's right, Zai Xia has also mobilized the city guards and all the knights, I believe that no one will be able to hurt you, as for the one named Ye Xun, I heard that he is also capable, so he must be made aware of his mistake, only then can he serve Her Royal Highness the princess as a courtier. Robin nodded and said, agreeing with Sides's words.
The two stood there singing and harmonizing, as if everything was under their control, and Alyssa was noncommittal, for in the past she would have believed each other, but now she was no longer the ignorant maiden of the palace.
Sides looked at Alyssa from the side, his eyes shot a scorching light, as if he wanted to eat the other party, whether it was appearance or birth, Alyssa was the top, therefore, as a nobleman, Hildes naturally had his own ideas.
Everything he said before was to attract Alyssa's attention, and he believed that his experience could easily attract the attention of a girl, after all, what girl would not admire a heroic story.
If he can impress Alyssa and become the other party's partner, then it will definitely be a thing to celebrate for the Theon family, but now it seems that the effect is not as good as he imagined.
Hills's enthusiasm surrounded Alyssa, almost to the point of inseparable, much to the dissatisfaction of the other young nobles around him.
Sir Robin is also on the side, forget it, what do you mean Sides always follow, the opportunity must be shared by everyone, it is very bad behavior to monopolize the prey.
Soon, some young people who couldn't help it had the courage to lean over, wanting to take the opportunity to get close to the beautiful princess, even if it was a familiar face.
This also made a lot of people gather around Alyssa for a while, and even Robin was squeezed aside by the noisy crowd, poor old man, even if he was a powerful knight in the past, now he can't resist the enthusiasm of the young people's courtship.
At this moment, no one present noticed that there was an ordinary-looking man in the crowd dressed as a waiter, who also leaned towards Alyssa's side with the flow of people.
The man was so ordinary, almost as if people would deliberately forget him, the crowd could not stop him in the slightest, and every time he took a step forward, it was as if the people around him would automatically make way for him.
"Princess Elisa, I brought you the wine you wanted. The waiter approached, raised the tray with both hands, and said.
"Huh, I didn't ask for wine. Alyssa looked at her strangely, she didn't remember if she had ever asked for a drink.
"Oh, I forgot to mention that your father called for you. The waiter looked up and smiled eerily.
The man's words were soft, but enough for everyone present to hear, and before anyone could react, he pulled out a dagger from the bottom of the tray and stabbed it at Alyssa.
This is an assassin, undoubtedly an assassin, disguised as a waiter, entered the lord's mansion in order to assassinate Elisa, his plan was very successful, everyone present was not vigilant at all, and no one found out his identity, so he easily let him come to the target's side.
The dagger in mid-air flickered with cold light, and there was a green liquid on it, which was obviously coated with poison, as long as it was rubbed a little, even ordinary monsters could be killed instantly.
The Assassin seemed to have seen Alyssa's death, and a disdainful smile appeared on the Assassin's face at Sir Robin, who was roaring not far away, and Sidders, who was full of surprise on the other side.
"Die. The assassin's attack was intense, lightning fast, and aimed at Alyssa's chest accurately.
"Crackling. ”
Under the desperate gaze of the crowd, the dagger in the assassin's hand stabbed Alyssa, but the next moment, the scene of blood splattering did not appear.
Alyssa's whole body suddenly exploded with a circle of thunder, which not only blocked the assassin's attack, but also crashed everyone around her.
The assassin bore the brunt of the attack, and the whole body was smoking, and the whole person flew away, while the others were only affected, and were not injured, but a little embarrassed.
"It's Ye Xun. ”
After walking on the death line, Alyssa, who came back to her senses, thought in her heart, it must be the protective magic that Ye Xun didn't know when to release on herself, and now she saved her life, and she felt warm in her heart for a while, and she couldn't wait for the other party to appear in front of her immediately.
"Come on, come and protect the princess. Sir Robin let out a sigh of relief when he saw that Alyssa was all right, and then shouted loudly.
With his command, a large crowd of knights and soldiers poured in, enclosing the entire hall, and Sides's friends all came to him, looking ready to fight.
Those nobles, seeing such a formation, were also frightened one by one, but they did not shout to leave, because they were afraid that Robin would be annoyed and angry and click them as assassins, which would be too wronged.
"It's been a long time, Your Highness Princess, how are you doing these days. ”
Some hoarse voices came from above the hall, and everyone, including Alyssa, looked up, only to see that on the beam on one side of the hall, there were four figures standing, and the assassin who had attacked Alyssa before was among them, and the leader was Aldo, whom they had met recently.
"What about your little lover? is he not there, if that is the case, I will take your life. Ors said in a calm tone with an expressionless face.
"Presumptuous, you smashed, do you think you can kill the princess under the protection of so many people, it's too presumptuous. Robin held the knight's sword, pushed the crowd to the front, and said to Aldo.
"Who the hell is self-righteous, please listen carefully to the voice outside. Aldo didn't get angry at the other man's words, but pointed leisurely outside.
As the words fell, a bad thought angered Robin's heart, and then the shouts of killing came from outside.
