As night fell, the castle gradually became lively, because Baron Duncan specially prepared a banquet, at first Dio and Sophia did not want to go, Dio did not like that atmosphere, and Sophia was too much of this occasion and was tired of it.

But when Duncan inadvertently revealed that the young and beautiful girls around him would also come to the banquet, Gordon and Raymond's enthusiasm immediately rose, and they helped Duncan persuade the two of them, and the words they said were also high-sounding, and in the end Dio even felt that if he didn't go, he would put on a show and not give the baron face, so he had no choice but to agree.

To Gordon...... Dio is completely helpless, his arm has just been bandaged, he still limps when he walks, and he still wants to go to the girl?!

Singing and laughter were everywhere in the parlor, and everyone had a smile on their faces, for everyone already knew that the Baron had won a beautiful battle just last night.

Does this mean that the war is coming to an end? While no one can give the right answer, most people are happy to think about the bright side. Naturally, there are some suspicions of anesthetizing themselves, but in this chaotic world, what can you do if you don't think like this? Not everyone can have the right to control their own destiny.

For example, the vast majority of people in this hall have their lives and deaths closely linked to Baron Duncan, and if Baron loses, their end will be extremely bleak.

Duncan pushed Anthony over, and kept greeting people along the way, always with a kind smile on his face, it can be seen that the people here love Duncan from the bottom of their hearts.

"Why didn't you go dancing?" Duncan asked with a smile, casually picked up a glass of wine from the plate next to him, and gestured to Dio, seeing Dio shaking his head, he put it back again: "I haven't seen a young man who doesn't drink for a long time, but...... It's a good habit. ”

Anthony glanced at her husband: "Since you know that it is a good habit, why do you still drink?"

Duncan shrugged, "That's for young people, people my age, who have a drink once in a while, will be more energetic, am I right, Dio?"

"You're not very old, are you?" said Dio.

"If you're old, what am I?" said Anthony, grimacing.

"Do you need to ask?" Duncan took Anthony's hand and kissed it gently: "My Anthony is still exactly the same as ten years ago, there is one thing I have to say to you, don't be so young anymore, otherwise it won't be long before I feel that I am no longer worthy of you." ”

Dio only felt goosebumps on his body, although he could see that Duncan was sincerely expressing his love for Anthony, but ...... It's so numb.

Despite the many years of suffering together as a husband and wife, Anthony's face couldn't help but flush and complained: "It's okay to pay attention, Dio, they are here." ”

"What are you afraid of, I'm giving him a free chance to learn, and it's too late for him to thank him. Compared to Gordon, Duncan's thickness is definitely a master, and Dio and Sophia finally understand why, with Duncan's strength, they can stand out among many suitors and be favored by Anthony, so that such lingering love words can be said by him in an extremely natural way, and this alone, few people can do it.

"By the way, how is Gordon's injury?" Anthony asked with concern, it seems that women's minds are always more delicate than men's, in fact, even Dio has almost forgotten the fact that Gordon is still injured, the reason is simple, this guy is too active.

"Gordon?" Dio laughed, "With so many girls here, how could he care about that little injury?"

As soon as Dio finished speaking, he heard Gordon's voice behind him: "What bad things do you say about me?"

Dio looked back and pretended to be surprised and said, "It's really rare, shouldn't I feel honored to find time to see us in my busy schedule?"

Gordon smiled bitterly: "I didn't know that the girls here would be so enthusiastic......"

Anthony smiled and said, "You know, you are a hero in the eyes of the girls, and of course they will be enthusiastic about you." ”

Dio smiled and looked at Gordon's arm hanging from his chest, "I think...... It's more sympathy than enthusiasm, isn't it?"

"I'm always better than Raymond. Gordon glanced ahead.

Dio followed Gordon's gaze, at this moment Raymond was surrounded by a group of warblers and swallows, it stands to reason that Raymond, who grew up in the women's pile, should be very good at dealing with girls, but these girls in the banquet hall are too noisy, and the more shy Raymond is, the more these girls will be inches, Raymond wants to leave several times, but he is pulled back, and he is about to be unable to parry.

"You two know to gloat here, and you're not going to help Raymond. Sophia snorted.

"I managed to escape, you can't let me go back, can you?" said Gordon, "Or, let Dio go, it is said that our captain Dio has a lot of experience." ”

"Is there such a thing?" said Sophia, looking at Dio with a smirk.

"Can you believe what he says?" Dior glared at Gordon helplessly.

At this time, a warrior hurriedly walked to Duncan's side and whispered something, and saw Duncan frown slightly, muttered for a while, looked at Dio and the others, and said with a smile: "I'll be with you for a while, and you guys will talk slowly here." Then he leaned down and whispered a few words in Anthony's ear, then turned and walked out.

"Wait. Anthony stopped Duncan and said lightly, "I'll go with you." ”

"I can do it myself. Duncan looked at his wife, "You are here to accompany Theo and them." ”

Anthony shook her head, "You think I don't know what Matthew's idea is? I'm afraid he didn't come back on his own, right?"

Duncan sighed: "No matter what, he is my younger brother, and besides, this time he is here with Earl William, it is a little inappropriate for you to come forward." ”

Anthony was silent, indeed, the Earl had come to visit her personally, and if she appeared on such a formal occasion, it would undoubtedly appear that Duncan was too incompetent to rely on her for everything.

"I'll go with the Baron. Dio suddenly said on the side, although he didn't know what was going on, but Dio could read the worry in Anthony's eyes, obviously the person Duncan was going to see did not come with good intentions, after this half a day of getting along, Dio had a good impression of Duncan and his wife, especially Anthony, so he took the initiative to make this request.

Anthony's face showed joy, with Dio and Duncan going together, she can rest assured, I heard Duncan mention yesterday's situation, under the full attack of the extreme samurai, Dio was able to be unharmed, although the wind samurai is known for his speed, but Anthony, who is also a wind samurai, knows very well in her heart that Dio will never be an ordinary light samurai, otherwise it will never be such an ending.

Duncan was stunned for a moment, hesitated and said, "That's not good......"

"What's wrong!" Anthony intercepted, "either I'll go or Dio will go, you can choose one." ”

"Just say I'm your bodyguard, it should be fine. Dio laughed.

"There's no problem, I just feel that I've wronged you too much. Duncan smiled bitterly, it seems that his wife really doesn't have a good impression of his unsuccessful brother.

Seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, Duncan did not refrain from refusing, and left the banquet hall with Dio, Duncan looked a little worried along the way, Dio saw it in his eyes, and did not ask anything, just silently followed Duncan.

When he walked to the door of the council hall in the castle, Dio found dozens of warriors standing in the black on both sides of the gate, the guards led by Karpas on the left, and the warrior Dio on the right had not seen any of them, apparently the person brought by the Earl William in Duncan's mouth.

"My lord!" Seeing Duncan appear, the warriors on Karpas's side saluted in unison, while the warriors on the opposite side did not move, as if they did not see Duncan.

"Why didn't you go on patrol, what are you doing standing here?" asked Duncan in surprise.

Karpas didn't say anything, just gestured to the other side with his gaze.

Duncan looked at the warriors opposite, all with fierce eyes and evil faces, standing there with straight figures, obviously all of them were real elite warriors, he couldn't help frowning, and after thinking about it, he didn't say anything more, and walked straight to the gate with Dio.

As soon as he entered the council hall, he saw an energetic old man sitting on the main seat, on the left hand side was a sturdy man with a slight resemblance to Duncan between his eyebrows and eyes, and a samurai with his head bowed and his face unclear standing quietly behind the old man.

"Your Excellency, what wind is blowing you?" said Duncan with a smile.

"Long time no see, Master Duncan. The old man smiled kindly and looked at Dio behind Duncan: "This is ......"

"This is my new squire, and I haven't seen the Earl yet?" Duncan turned his head and scolded, an apologetic look on his face.

"Lord Earl!" was to do the whole thing, and Dio was very cooperative, and bowed down as if he was afraid.

The old man looked Dio up and down a few times, then lost interest, and then fell on Duncan: "I heard that Lord Duncan has not been doing well recently." ”

Duncan had just sat down and couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the old man's words: "What do you mean......"

"Big brother, don't hold on. The middle-aged man sneered and said, "Who doesn't know that your territory is about to become a den of bandits. ”

"Matthew, don't talk nonsense if you don't know what's going on!" Duncan's eyes showed a little annoyance, and he turned to the old man and said: "Lord Earl came just in time, the deputy head of the Thorn Warrior Order, Gordon, disguised himself as a thief, killed people and set fire to my territory, I don't know what Lord Earl thinks about this matter?"

"Did you see such a thing?" the old man asked in surprise, "Lord Duncan, don't talk nonsense, I know you have a conflict with Gordon, but ......"
