It's just that Rose knew that Leon was going to take her to the city for dinner, and there was a hint of embarrassment on her pretty face.

"What's the matter? It doesn't matter if you don't want to go, I'll just go alone. Leon smiled.

"It's not like that..."

The leopard-descendant girl with the pungent surname had a little more cowardice on her face, and said in a low voice: "I, I don't have the right clothes. ”

Although Rose grew up in the Wuthering Forest, she was not an uninformed country woman, and she knew that some basic etiquette must be paid attention to when attending formal social banquets, otherwise she would not lose her face.

Leon suddenly realized that Rose had sneaked out with him, and he had a set of leather armor for combat with him, and at most a change of underwear, how could he prepare a dress.

"It's okay, we can go to town and buy it now, it's convenient. Leon laughed.

He'd been to Tomond twice, and although he wasn't very familiar with the place, he certainly knew where to buy the right clothes.

Rose nodded happily, and Leon was delighted to be able to take her with her to the formal party.

"Lord Misut, we have been summoned by the kingdom this time, and we have come in a hurry..."Leon said to the Lion Knight, "so we want to come a little later, do you think we can do it?"

"I understand very well, of course there is no problem, then I will go back to my life first and wait for the arrival of the two of you at Miranda's restaurant!" Misut naturally had no objection.

However, the word "revenge" he said made Leon's heart move, I am afraid that the so-called "friend" is not a simple character.

After Misut left, Leon had the Rock Hammer summoned for a few words, and then entered the city of Tormund with Rose.

It was the first time for Rose to come to such a bustling big city, and she was completely dazzled by the rows of buildings, bustling streets, and many brightly lit shops along the street, and it was all up to Leon to carry her so that she did not get lost in it.

Considering that it would be rude to be too late, Leon randomly chose a good-looking ready-to-wear store down the street to enter.

"Good evening, honorable samurai, is there anything you need?"

As soon as the two of them entered the door, a beautiful rabbit-descendant clerk greeted them warmly.

Leon pointed directly to the girl next to him and said, "My female companion needs a dress for the banquet, it doesn't need to be too grand, but it must be decent!"

"Understood, young lady, please come with me!" the well-informed clerk was not surprised, and took Rose to try on clothes.

While they went to try on clothes, Leon also picked out a black knight's dress in the men's clothes to change into, and he couldn't wear a black dragon python armor to the banquet, which could be regarded as solving his own problems together.

After waiting for a while, Rose walked out of the fitting room nervously.

Leon's eyes lit up!

Rose, who changed into a dress, seemed to be a different person, and the long fuchsia dress set off her graceful figure perfectly, with crisp breasts and half revealing a thin waist and hips.

Looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, Leon couldn't help but whistle.

"Isn't this too revealing—" Rose pressed her hands against her chest, her face flushed.

"Of course not, it's beautiful!" Leon laughed, "but there's still a little thing missing..."

Without the help of the clerk, Leon happily took out five hundred gold coins to buy the expensive dress, compared to less than seventy gold coins for his knight's suit.

In the jewelry store next door to the ready-to-wear store, Leon took out a thousand gold coins to buy her a ruby necklace, which was even more beautiful to hang around her neck.

The girl felt very embarrassed to see Leon spending money so lavishly for herself, but she couldn't resist Leon's insistence.

When everything was ready, Leon stopped a carriage on the street and headed to Miranda's restaurant.

Miranda's Restaurant is located at the eastern foot of Temple Hill, which is a nobility's ghetto, and this restaurant is not for ordinary people.

When Leon arrived, Misut was actually waiting at the door.

The Lion Knight must have waited for some time, but he was not the slightest impatient, he took over the work of the waiter, and personally led Leon and the two into the restaurant.

"It's nice here!" said Leon.

On the ground floor of the restaurant is a lavish lobby with no dining tables, just a row of cafés by the window and a sculptural fountain in the middle.

Huge crystal lamps hung from the golden dome, and the bright light illuminated the whole hall, and on the small stage in the corner, several musicians played elegant and moving music, and some nobles sat on the sofa next to them drinking wine and laughing.

It was the first time for Rose to come to such an occasion, and she was inevitably a little nervous, and she held Leon's arm tightly, for fear that she would make a mistake and make people laugh.

"This restaurant belongs to our Grand Rhine family and has a history of three hundred years...", Misut proudly introduced, "Baron Leon, if you like, I can find a way to help you get a VIP qualification." ”

Leon smiled and didn't say anything, the other party could point to his Thrall army service, how could a little benefit impress him.

The two of them followed the Lion Knight up to the second floor, through the long hallway, and finally into a large private room.

In the room, two aristocratic men and women were sitting on the sofa chatting.

Seeing Leon and the others coming in, they stood up quite reservedly, and the middle-aged nobleman of the lion took a step forward and stood right in front of Leon.

Leon's breath suddenly stagnated, although the middle-aged nobleman in front of him was well-dressed, but the luxurious dress could not hide his burly and strong physique, and his curly blonde hair set off his resolute face, and he was not angry and majestic.

It's just that this step brings Leon a strong sense of oppression, and the other party's strength is definitely above him!

The natural temperament of the other party made Leon feel even more familiar - only a samurai who has experienced a hundred battles can have!

"Baron Leon, allow me to introduce you...", Misut on the side introduced very respectfully, "This is our regimental commander, Count Octavia Rhine, and this is our regimental commander's wife. ”

The commander of the 3rd Regiment of the Garrison! This is indeed not a simple character.

Leon did not move, and saluted the other party: "It is a great honor to meet you, Count Octavia, Countess. ”

"Hello, Baron Leon, I've heard of your name for a long time, and now I see that it is well deserved. The middle-aged nobleman laughed, and the astonishing momentum disappeared without a trace.

The countess, who was standing next to him, smiled slightly and nodded to Leon in return.

"Lord Earl is such a compliment, Leon is ashamed!" Leon was polite in his mouth, but he couldn't help but think in his heart.

The other party put on such a posture, obviously it was inevitable for the Sal army, and this dinner was not easy to digest.

"This beautiful young lady is—" Count Octavia's gaze fell on Rose.

"She's mine," Leon's tongue twirled, "Uh, Rose, the deputy commander of the Saarrlands." ”

Rose was stunned for a moment, Leon quietly squeezed her little hand, and she suddenly came to her senses, and hurriedly saluted: "Hello, Count Octavia!"

"I really can't see it!" Count Octavia smiled: "Please sit down, you two will get together in the evening, please don't be restrained." ”

In the brightly lit room, there is a long dining table, and the white tablecloth is placed with rare flowers in winter.

Trained waiters serve up a variety of delicacies, including tender charcoal-grilled veal, golden and fluffy oatmeal buns, marinated smoked fish and mellow rum.

During the meal, the Count of Octavia did not say anything about the Saar, and like a hospitable host, he told Leon about the recent events of Tormond.

Leon listened most of the time, and sometimes interjected a few words, it was easy for him to deal with such a scene, but Rose was a little nervous at first, and became much more relaxed after relaxing.

The atmosphere of the dinner was good, but the beautiful and graceful Countess did not join in the conversation, but looked at her husband with a smile on her face.

When he was full, Count Octavia had the table removed and replaced it with a smaller tea table.

The Countess, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "Miss Rose, I have booked a room upstairs, shall we go up and have a chat?

Leon understood that this was time to get down to business.

Rose was very smart, and of course she could understand what the other party meant, so she nodded and smiled, "Okay!"

After the two women left together, Count Octavia looked straight and asked in a deep voice, "Baron Leon, if you want your Saar army to join our third war group, what do you want?"

This is the style of a real soldier, straight to the core, if it is an ordinary person, after experiencing the harmonious atmosphere just now, suddenly hearing such a direct question, I am afraid that I will be asked on the spot.

But Leon was not an ordinary person, he groaned slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Count Octavia, why do you think so highly of our Saar army?"

The military strength of the Kingdom of Bimon is the most elite is the royal guards guarding the royal capital, followed by the kingdom garrison and the garrison of the five major provinces, followed by the local legions, and the territorial army can be said to be the worst level.

The 3rd Regiment of the Southwest Garrison was the regular army of the kingdom and the elite force of the Southwest Province, and its commander personally came forward to entertain a banquet to invite a territorial army to join, which was undoubtedly extraordinary.

Although the Saar army is much stronger than the average territorial army, the treatment is still surprising.

You know, Octavia is a count.
