Judging the specifications of a dinner party, in the wasteland, it is the environment, the organizers and participants, and a series of essential hardware facilities such as the location of the dinner, etc., and in the imperial capital, these can only be the minimum basic conditions, similar to the theme of the dinner, the musicians invited in the dinner, and the most important is the level of imperial courtesans participating in the dinner, which is an important embodiment of determining the specifications of an imperial dinner. Just like this salon, which is said to have been organized by the Prince of Bourbon himself and held in a royal estate on the southern outskirts of the empire, not to mention the basic conditions, a group of musicians from the royal family, coupled with Miss Lucia, the most famous courtesan in the imperial capital, kept smiling and interspersed with the dinner, skillfully mobilizing the atmosphere of the dinner, all determined that this salon is definitely a rare top standard even in the imperial capital where the night is singing.

Of course, this is enough to prove from the side what kind of powerful influence Prince Colum has, who has not yet returned to the imperial capital.

A cheerful triumphal song permeates the manor.

Harp, five-stringed violin, organ, tambourine, And in recent years, the piano, which has just arrived from the Diago dynasty and has quickly become the prince of musical instruments, weaves a heart-warming and lively atmosphere, which, combined with the unbridled laughter of women and the deep and reserved voices of men, can be said to be a glamorous dinner party that has reached its climax at the beginning, and on the expensive Parkinson's knitted carpet, the man in the straight tuxedo, the woman with precious jewels and graceful evening dresses, and the peacock with his head held high, are really intoxicating, addiction to all factors.

The dinner party became more and more high-pitched with this extravagant rhythm.

It's just a pity that the sudden arrival of a young man interrupts this gorgeous rhythm with a rather damaging scenery.

Even the cheerful triumphal song paused slightly.

He was dressed in a simple black robe, which was theoretically neat and decent, but in this kind of environment where he was dressed in extraordinarily bright and luxurious clothes, he really looked shabby, like a foreign hillbilly aristocrat who suddenly broke into the upper class of the imperial capital, and instantly attracted all kinds of eyes from everyone. And then what's even more terrifying is that even if this kind of eyes are not only playful and banter, but he still has a gentle and indifferent smile, even if no one pays attention to him, no one walks towards him, but he even takes the initiative to smile and nod to everyone in the banquet hall;

It still seems to be firmly defending his pride, his dignity.

But this kind of pride can only seem funny on this occasion.

Yes, it's funny.

The cheerful music sounded again, and the playful and playful gaze of the people did not stop, and there were many more whispers and pointing and pointing.

He was alone in the corner, and he didn't fit in with the whole atmosphere.

Lonely.

Wretched.

......

"It's so sad that he really came alone to seek humiliation. ”

In the other corner diagonally opposite him, perhaps the only person who caused the biggest reaction to his presence was the three girls in this corner. When he appeared, these three girls instantly had extremely complex expressions, but of course the emotions expressed by these complexities were completely different, just like the girl who was the first to break the silence, her complex meaning could only be banter and ridicule, because she was Angelia.

And the other girl in a white evening dress can only be pure distress.

Elizabeth must have known that Augustus was coming, and she had expressed more than once through old Vernon that she wanted to come with Augustus and bear this embarrassing ridicule together, but the result was not surprising, she couldn't convince Augustus at all, and she couldn't let Augustus share some of the pressure on her shoulders at all, this was the case in the wasteland, and it was still the case in the Empire, Augustus was domineering and arrogant to bear everything alone, keeping her firmly behind her, providing her with the safest and warmest harbor, completely ignoring her feelings, her distress, as if to completely exclude her from his world, and push her to another world with only beauty。

She sniffled and didn't speak, but her hands were already white.

The other is Sophia in a lilac evening dress.

Indeed, from the first sight of Augustus alone at the door, Sophia could scarcely contain her impulses, and ran straight to him when she saw him again, but she finally suppressed her impulses, for she knew very well that she could not do this- Speaking of which, by this time she must have realized that it was definitely a mistake to let Nicholas appear in Earl Clark's mansion, and she also knew that if it weren't for her behavior, maybe the heirs of the great nobles in the imperial capital would not have more hatred and attention to Augustus, which made her feel guilty and remorseful, and finally understood why Augustus ignored her.

It has nothing to do with her.

It has nothing to do with him.

It can only be about this dirty and complicated world.

Sophia had been wondering for a long time why she liked him, and she had been thinking about why she, who had asked her to be independent and always awake, why she would forget her independence and forget her sobriety every time she saw him, was it really just that she was used to relying on him during that time in the wasteland, and getting used to following in his footsteps? She didn't know, she couldn't figure it out, but anyway, the only thing she knew was that she didn't have to figure it out.

Because she liked him.

If you figure out why you like it, do you still like it?

She looked at him quietly and lonely.

The banquet hall is not big, and the distance is really not far.

But she felt like she would never be able to get close to him.

It made her feel sad.

Suddenly I want to shed tears.

......

"My world, I am my absolute king. ”

Since the mind is strong enough, all the playfulness, banter, ridicule and mockery will certainly not have any effect on Augustus, in fact, Augustus who found a corner where no one was quiet quickly immersed in his world, he took a glass of wine casually, and seemed to be smiling at the noisy scene in front of him, but in fact he was already thinking about his own affairs, the first thing he thought about was Terina, the reason why Terina did not come was because Augustus had to worry about whether Terina's obscure identity would be detected, after all, this kind of occasion was too complicated, and Augustus was not sure at all whether there would be a certain big man in the Holy See here, and then connected to the fact that even Sophia could detect Terina's obscure identity at the beginning, of course he was not willing to take this risk at this time, so when Albert proposed to take Terina to watch an interesting fighting game, he was repeatedly appeased, and finally let Terina accept Albert's proposal, and Augustus was finally able to come with confidence.

And then there's the invitation in his pocket.

Even still he couldn't understand why Queen Diana, who had asked the servant to give him this invitation, had given him the invitation. If the chief secretary of state of the empire was really so boring, I am afraid that the Diago dynasty next door, coupled with careerists who will inevitably not be lacking in any period, would have torn the empire to pieces.

So what did that Queen Diana have in mind?

Augustus felt clueless.

He bowed his head and took a sip of the free and expensive wine.

He didn't look up, but he clearly felt someone walking towards him.

This was what Augustus expected, and the reason why he did not have any fear that he would always be alone in this salon was because he knew very well that since he came, they would not let him be quiet and alone.

"I didn't expect you to actually come. ”

The words fell into his ears first, and then he looked up at the person, Augustus's pupils constricted slightly and secretly.

Clark's heir, the snake-body dragon head badge on his chest is also particularly glaring.

Still smiling, he met the banter of the young man in front of him, and he said seriously, "I have an invitation." ”

The young man was stunned, this answer was too simple.

So he was stunned and then he smiled, changed the goblet in his hand to his left hand, and he took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said, "Introduce myself, I am Sain-Clark, the fifth heir to the Clark family." ”

It was Augustus's turn to be stunned, it was completely different from the way he imagined to meet the people of the Clark family.

He didn't extend his hand in a friendly way, and probably knew clearly the reason for Augustus's accident, and the young man named Sain Clark quickly laughed and said: "Don't get me wrong, although you are an enemy of the Clark family, for me personally, I don't actually have a so-called hatred for you, on the contrary, I must thank you, it is precisely because you let my stupid brother's soul collapse, I can quickly take one step from the sixth to become the fifth heir." ”

What a strong explanation for reason.

Augustus was directly relieved, smiled, and he reached out very friendly and shook the young master who had never put his hand down, and nodded: "From this point of view, you do have reason to thank me." ”

"Who's to say it's not?" Young Master Sain smiled reservedly, stood beside Augustus, and he picked his well-defined chin very familiarly, pointing at a burly young man in the banquet hall who was facing them, but did not look at them, and smiled: " But there is no need to thank you, that is my brother and the first heir to the Clark family, George, out of gratitude, I can remind you that the first thing George will do tonight is to harvest your soul and your life, which is normal, and in order to become Clark's parent, he needs to fully demonstrate that he is capable of defending the glory of the Clark family, so of course revenge for York is his imperative - oh yes, Master Augustus, right? Do you mind if I further show my gratitude to you, and if not, I can even help you in ways you can't imagine. ”

Help his enemies of the Clark family deal with him as the first in line to the throne of the Clark family?

Augustus couldn't help but sigh to himself: "Sure enough, it's a deformed circle full of strange things and freaks." ”
