Chapter 463: Going to the Banquet
After deciding to go to the banquet, Lelouch was not idle, at least the Lord of the Yin Stream was ordered to go to the venue of the banquet to investigate the situation first, considering that nobles and big businessmen would bring guards when they traveled, Lelouch decided to let Kenjiro pretend to be a guard and go with him.
I have to say that Kenjiro is really quite imposing after changing into a luxurious outfit, but compared to the slightly thin body of most nobles, Kenjiro has a body that has been trained for a long time and is comparable to that of Mr. Bodybuilder. Gus's image is a little worse, whether it is the steel prosthetic limbs or the scars all over his body because of the battle, no matter how he dresses, he can't hide the momentum of Gus who kills from the sea of corpses and blood.
Three days later┉┉
A carriage pulled by two black steeds left the Silver Wing Chamber of Commerce and slowly drove towards the location of the gourmet club. After taking the initiative to dismiss', Lelouch re-ordered this brand new carriage from the carriage dealership, not only the carriage box is made of high-quality red shirt wood, and the appearance is carved with a wind magic array, which can not only speed up the carriage's travel, but also further make the carriage as smooth as walking on the ground, the interior of the carriage is paved with a red carpet and installed with magic crystal lamps, in addition to the two rows of chairs, there is even a long table in the middle of the carriage, which can be ∧ for the passengers to drink alcohol or temporarily deal with some official business, not only that, even the two horses pulling the carriage are good horses with pedigree certificates。
And such a high-end carriage is at least a million miles or so in the free city, and Lelouch added a lot of things after the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce, including many expensive luxuries. It's not that Lelouch is too wasteful of foreshadowing, but as a businessman, wealth is a symbol of your status in many high-class social banquets, and the more you can show your wealth, the more people can attract more people to cooperate with you, and there is no money! When everyone else is dressed up for a high-end banquet, and you run into the banquet hall wearing a sweaty tracksuit, the host of the banquet will probably think that you are here to smash the field.
The world is extremely realistic, rich and not rich are two treatments, Yalin wishes that the businessmen in the world are the same, the small businessman begs his father to tell his grandmother to ask the bank for a loan, and the big businessman is the bank begging you to lend him money.
In the carriage, Lulu sat quietly and listened to the report. Of course, not to listen to Elisa's report or Kenjiro's report, but to the report of the fourth person who is always hidden in the shadows. Lord of the Yin Currents - Tribulation!
Zai first went to explore the place where the banquet was held, and according to Zai's observations, there seemed to be no vision. The banquet was held in a very large private mansion, and there were a lot of detection and protection circles inside the mansion and in the large garden outside, but when he went there, because the banquet was still in the preparation stage, he did not open the magic circle, which made it easy for him to avoid the eyes and ears of the guards and enter the mansion.
Except for a large number of workers, maids, and attendants who were adding tables and chairs to the banquet venue, he did not find any suspicious signs, and Yiqiē looked orderly. After returning to report once, he re-entered the mansion the next day to observe. This time, many cooks were sent into the mansion, and at the same time, many cattle, sheep and rare birds were also sent to the back of the mansion to be slaughtered.
And after today's banquet, the robbery went to the mansion again, this time the mansion's magic circle has been opened, and it was observed that many carriages had already entered the mansion before the dinner, and after learning that Lelouch had already set off, he returned to meet Lelouxiu.
"Oh~ That's right! Then you can still sneak into the mansion during the banquet for a while?" asked Lelouch after listening to the report.
"It's easy┉┉"
He replied disdainfully. In the past two days, I have observed the layout of the magic circle in the entire mansion, and even if the magic circle is opened now, I can't hide from my eyes. Even the entire Free City's urban protection circle can't stop itself. The magic circle of a mere private mansion is not a problem.
I have to say that although it is a little expensive, the facilities of the carriage are very perfect, and the interior is also equipped with a magic device that can open the soundproof barrier, as long as the coachman outside can't hear any sound in the carriage at all, let alone talking, even if you do something you love in the carriage, it won't be heard.
After receiving the order, he set off for the banquet site. Lelouch and his party arrived at their destination half an hour before the banquet began.
At this moment, there were at least seventy or eighty carriages of all kinds parked outside this luxurious mansion located in the upper district, and after the appearance of Lelouch's carriage, this lavishly decorated carriage immediately attracted the attention of some guests who were entering the mansion outside. Obviously, the owner of this expensive carriage may also be a person who is either rich or expensive, at least for now, it is estimated that among the many carriages outside, it is estimated that it can compete with Lelouch's million-dollar carriage.
"I don't think I've seen the emblem on that carriage, which nobleman's carriage is this?"
"The silver winged emblem is a little familiar!"
"Really. The two of them are too outdated, that's the carriage of the Silver Wing Chamber of Commerce!"
"By the way, it's the Silver Wing Chamber of Commerce, which was recently established by the mysterious rich man His Excellency Lulouch Lamperuki. ”
When the carriage stopped, the surrounding guests began to chat, and many of them had already stepped forward to get acquainted with the gold lord who had recently become quite famous in the free city. The attendant at the gate reacted quickly and greeted him first, and the attendant in a well-dressed attendant uniform and white gloves gently opened the car door. Then, under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, a cane with a silver top carved with the head of a giant dragon fell to the ground first, and then Lelouch in a white dress slowly walked out of the carriage.
What a noble boy he is!
I have to say that Lelouxiu's unique elegant temperament and charm quickly conquered many of the guests present, you must know that a person's cultivation and temperament are not innate, it takes a long time of study and edification to slowly cultivate. True aristocrats need to learn a lot of etiquette courses from an early age, covering all aspects of life, and the etiquette they learn needs to be gradually applied in daily life to slowly form habits. In this way, every move on weekdays will seem very natural, giving people a temperament that you know your identity is different just by looking at it.
And some nouveau riche even have the same etiquette course, but do not have the subconscious habits that have been developed by using it for a long time, which makes many nouveau riche merchants and petty nobles give people a sense of only form but not substance.
As the prince of the original Britannian Empire, Lelouch has learned strict court etiquette and received edification since he was a child, although he was sent by the emperor to be a proton and displaced for a long time, but Lelouxiu's aristocratic temperament has not weakened, on the contrary, because the Black Knights in the 11th district gradually compete with the most powerful empire in the world, so that Lelouch has more arrogance in elegance, which is not the stupid arrogance of some wealthy nobles who do not know the height of the sky. It is a kind of courage to dominate the world, as if it is telling people about their glory.
For a while, some nobles and businessmen couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in their hearts, the boy who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old in front of them gave people a strange kind of sophistication and maturity, and standing in front of them seemed to be not an underage child, but an emperor who had already won countless glories in the torrent and struggle.
After Lelouch came out, the people behind him stood in place and looked around, this action made the guards instantly understand that it seemed that Miss Buyani, who was on the list of invited people, did not come, otherwise Lelouch should have turned around and brought his sister out with him. The appearance of Alyssa and Kenjiro next inevitably disappointed some people who wanted to witness the legendary Miss Buyani, who was even more beautiful than an elf!
"Your Excellency Lelouch ~ Welcome to tonight's banquet, please here. "The guards were very conscientious and didn't ask anything they shouldn't ask.
Obviously, this time as an invitee, Lelouch seemed to have a high status, at least some of the minor nobles and merchants were still gradually being inspected by the invitation, and Lelouch and the others had already entered the mansion garden through another passage.
At this moment, on the balcony on the upper floor of the mansion, two figures were sitting comfortably on rattan chairs, staring at Lelouch with strange eyes.
"Looks like a little ghost who is still underage, hey~ If he can have long hair and change into women's clothes, that's definitely the type I like. The tall man in the gown between the two said, looking back and forth at Lelouxiu.
"Damn it~ give me some ideas about your tone Jefferson, he's a guest tonight, and the 'store manager' has instructed us not to make our guests angry. ”
The other person next to Jefferson was a tall and beautiful woman, if Lelouch saw her, he might still recognize her, once at a dinner party at the Ring of Blackstone Chamber of Commerce, it was this girl who implicitly quietly handed Lelouch a door key, of course, Lelouch entrusted the attendant to return the key afterwards.
"I know~ I know~ I know hospitality for the sake of his 'thing', but then again, which rumored Miss Buyani who is more beautiful than an elf didn't come?"
The glamorous woman seemed to be a little tired of the companion beside her, who was always unscrupulous from time to time: "Do you need me to warn you once? ”
Jefferson shrugged his shoulders and walked downstairs, "If you get angry, it will make your beautiful face ugly, I'll go down and prepare tonight's main course first." (To be continued......)
