Chapter 33: The Mysterious Girl
In the afternoon, a horse-drawn carriage with the sign "In the moonlit night, roaring wind wolves in the sky" drove out of the Fergus family castle.
Around it, more than twenty horsemen followed the escort, led by a man in a brown-colored battle uniform with a goatee, none other than Lord Linde, who had the strength of a high-ranking blood warrior.
In the carriage, there was a teenager and a girl younger than the teenager, it was Gray and Sarah.
Fearing that he would encounter the Assassins, Viscount Fergus sent Lord Lind to escort the two Gray to the place where they would learn aristocratic dance.
With the strength of Lord Linde's high-ranking blood warriors and more than twenty cavalrymen, even if they encounter assassinations like the last time, they are enough to hold out until help arrives.
The carriage drove into the city of Fergus, and finally came to a walled house with two stone carvings of a tiger and a leopard in front of the door, and drove inside.
The owner of the residence is Lord Corgi Bedi. Corgi is one of the seven lords of the Fergus family.
Although they have fiefdoms, the Corgi prefer to stay in their homes on the side of Fergus, and only go to their fiefdoms for a period of time when taxes are collected in the autumn of each year.
The carriage stopped in front of the main building, a two-story spire building made entirely of white stone.
Gray and Sarah stepped out of the carriage, and Lord Lind and the others jumped off their horses.
"Master Gray, Miss Sarah, Lord Linde, welcome!"
Several people had already approached this side, and at the head was a beautiful woman, wearing a purple suspender dress, her chest was upturned, revealing a touch of whiteness.
Behind her, there were people dressed as butlers and maids.
"I've seen Lady Emma!"
The three Gray greeted the woman.
The woman was Emma Ricardo, wife of Lord Corgi and sister of Baron Ricardo.
She is known for her skill in noble dancing in the Viscount of Fergus, whose noble dance is the best in the entire Viscount of Fergus, and many noble families like to send their children to her to learn noble dance.
"Master Gray, Miss Sarah, please come here!"
Lord Lind was led into the living room by the servants to rest, the other cavalry were also introduced into the corresponding lounge, and Gray and Sara were led into a hall of four or five hundred square meters with Lady Emma.
The ceiling of the large hall is made of white stone, and the floor and walls are made of wood.
The brown wood is extremely smooth and polished, and some special lacquer layer should be applied to make the material look extremely shiny, and even shiny.
In the corner of the room, there was a huge upright piano with a brown and yellow body, black and white keys, and a man in a tuxedo stood next to it, who was supposed to be a pianist.
In the room, there was also a girl with long light brown hair.
"Master Gray, it's a pleasure to see you again!"
Seeing Gray, the girl stepped forward, lifted the hem of her skirt slightly with her left and right hands, and saluted Gray.
She was wearing a Crenolin skirt, the color was light green, and the skirt was about the knee level, revealing a pair of slender and white long legs, which was Thea, who was hunting in the same group as Gray when she was hunting in the stone slope forest.
"Me too!"
Gray returned the salute to Thea.
For this girl, he was slightly sorry in his heart, the last hunt, because of his own reasons, the girl was also in crisis, and he was quite sorry in his heart.
At the same time, I was also quite curious, why did the other party appear here? It stands to reason that with the age of the other party, he should have already learned aristocratic dance.
"Brother, who is this?"
Sarah looked at Xiang Thea curiously, and she probably knew her brother, but she hadn't heard her brother mention it.
"This is Miss Thea from the Ricardian family, Miss Thea, and this is my sister Sarah."
Gray introduced the two of them to each other.
"Master Gray, Miss Sarah, Thea I asked to dance with you both."
Seeing that the conversation between the three was over, Mrs. Emma explained aloud.
"I'm tired."
"There's Sister Lausia."
Knowing why the other party was here, Gray and Sarah both thanked Thea.
In the following time, Gray and Sarah began to learn noble dance under the tutelage of Egbert.
The whole set of aristocratic dance is divided into many steps, and the next step is learned, guided by hand, until the previous movement has been absolutely standardized, and the next movement is learned.
The aristocratic dance of this world should be very similar to the European court dance of the previous life, with a light and solemn dance posture, with strict dance steps, manners, manners and dance procedures.
Of course, how similar the specifics are, Gray can't say.
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary office worker, naturally he had never learned European court dance, and the reason why he felt like it was only seen in some TV shows.
However, in general, the difficulty is not too great, plus some time ago, the original owner of the body has come here to learn, after a few times, Gray gradually became proficient, although the movements do not appear beautiful, but they are quite standardized.
"Thea, you dance for Master Gray!"
Lady Emma, apparently noticing this change in Gray, shouted to Thea beside her.
"Yes, Auntie."
Thea replied and walked over to Gray, coming to a place that was only one place away from Gray, almost close together.
A faint fragrance that was stronger than last time emanated from the girl's body and wafted into Gray's nose, making Gray feel a little dazed.
When Gray came back to his senses, his right hand was unconsciously clasped with a soft, boneless hand, and his left hand was resting on the girl's back and shoulder.
Through the thin fabric of the skirt, Gray could clearly feel the soft skin and body temperature under the fabric.
An inexplicable "respect" rose in Gray's body, but he was held back by Gray, otherwise he would be ugly today.
"Dingding......
Accompanied by melodious piano music, under the guidance of the girl, Gray began to dance for the first time in his past life and in this life.
Gray's dance steps can only be regarded as standard, after all, he is only a beginner, but the girl's aristocratic dance level is quite high, under the guidance of the other party, Gray easily brought it in, dancing to the music.
Sometimes melodious and slow, like a trickle of water, sometimes rapid and enthusiastic, like a passionate flame......
At the end of the song, the two parted, and Lady Emma stepped forward.
"Young Master Gray, your noble dance is already quite standard, but it is still a little rusty, I believe that if you practice a few more times, you should be proficient."
"Thanks to Mrs. Emma's teachings!"
Gray was sincerely grateful, and it was clear that much of the credit for learning the noble dance so quickly was due to Lady Emma, who was the best dancer in the viscounty, and had a very high level of teaching.
"Master Gray is gracious."
Lady Emma smiled slightly, and looked at Thea again.
"And Thea, your nobility is getting better and better, and after a while, I'm afraid I'll have to give you the title of the first person to lead the noble dance of the viscount."
"Auntie is joking, I'm still far from you!"
Thea said with a roll of her eyes.
……
As the sun set in the west, Gray and Sara said goodbye to Lady Emma and Thea, got into the carriage, and left Lord Corgi's house.
Horse-drawn carriages run through the streets of Fergus, and you can occasionally see passers-by and some stalls on both sides of the street.
Through the window of the carriage, Sarah looked out with interest and proposed.
"Brother, shall we go down for a walk?"
Hearing this proposal, Gray frowned, thought about it slightly, and couldn't help but be moved.
He had been in this world for so long, and he had never visited this city of Fergus, and every time he passed by, he was either riding a horse or riding a carriage, and it was a hurried glimpse.
"I'll talk to Lord Linde!"
A moment later, Gray and Salad, with Lord Linde's permission, stepped out of the carriage and stepped on the street.
Both of them were in high spirits, watching as they walked, and every time they passed a stall, they would stop to take a few looks, and sometimes they would spend money on some gadgets.
In the castle, the two of them had ten silver coins of pocket money every month, although it was not enough to buy things like the blood of blood beasts, but it was more than enough to buy some gadgets of the common class.
However, it can be clearly felt that the eyes of the people around them are in awe, after all, more than 20 cavalrymen around them are also following in unison, no matter how they look at it, they don't look like ordinary people, so they don't dare to bargain at all.
On the second floor of a hotel on the street, a girl with purple hair stood quietly by the window.
She was wearing a blue battle uniform with a red cloak on her back, her long hair draped behind her back, revealing a delicate and beautiful face like an elf, and her eyes were black and white, revealing an ethereal feeling.
She looked through the window, quietly at Gray and Sarah on the street, no, Gray to be exact.
Knock knock!
Behind, there was a knock on the door, and she didn't look back, just spoke.
"Come in!"
The voice is cold, but it sounds like the song of a lark.
A strong man in a black uniform pushed the door in, entered the house, and said after saluting the girl respectfully.
"Miss, the ruins have been found!"
At this time, Gray's figure had disappeared outside the window, and the woman turned her head with a cold face, and said in an unquestioning tone.
"Let's go, then!"
