Chapter Thirty-Eight: Making a Promise in Perpetuity, Only to Wait for Adam

After Russell's reign, the Sauron family was much worse than before, and compared to Rune Augustus, who were all subject to the three major churches, but still had a fairly sovereign structure, the Sauron family was closer to the puppets of the church. Under the influence of the Church of the Sun, Intis is most hostile to the kingdom of the gods of storm and wisdom. Of course, compared to countries such as Lenburg and Marceek, there is a steam church between Rune and Intis mediated by it, and the relationship between ordinary people is actually not too bad......

However, nobles generally do not marry privately except for the official marriages of the two countries, which can easily be regarded as collaborating enemies in their own countries, and their political future will be affected to a certain extent.

Of course, Glerint didn't care about this, but he didn't intend to provoke Augustus openly for the sake of concealment.

Just in case, he still changed his image and prepared to accompany Carol to the dinner party as the only son of a wealthy merchant in Rune - a price drop was inevitable, but Intis admired trade and money, and the aristocratic class was hit hard by Russell's New Deal, and the status of merchants, especially wealthy merchants, was much higher than that of Rune.

But in Glerint's opinion, they are all the same.

He has been writing hard these days, criticizing the rotten and bloody old class, not only to convince others, but also to convince himself...... But the most disgusting thing is that these decadent classes are often unable to move lightly, because the wanton blows are most affected by the ordinary people.

Just like Glelint, knowing that he also enjoyed the "ill-gotten" wealth of exploitation and plunder, he could only slightly improve the welfare of his peasants and workers, and did not dare to rudely change the existing situation.

The pioneers of Xintiandi will be praised by Xintiandi; And those who tear apart the old order will be attacked by the old order.

…………

"How? Is it okay? ”

Towards evening, Glerint refused the help of the servants, and quickly changed into the little gown that Carol had prepared for him, which felt quite fit, and stretched out his arms to inquire.

"Great!"

Carol pursed her lips with a smile, not sparing her compliments at all.

This is a dark dress that is more ruin, and in the admiration of golden Intis, it looks more simple and humble, but it is in line with the temperament of Lelint, he is not the kind of person who shows off his personality.

"I kind of regret it......," she said.

"What?" Glerint was a little confused.

The girl played with her hair and said exaggeratedly:

"I'm afraid you'll be invited to dance by other women."

Ha?

I have to admit that the girl's heartfelt praise can indeed make Greenlight happy.

He smiled dumbly and said:

"No, as long as you are by my side, they won't have that kind of courage."

When it comes to business blowing, he has to be a step ahead.

Carol was stunned for a moment, secretly happy, but also felt a little crying and laughing, not knowing how to answer his words that were half praise and half ridicule...... Just as she was about to say something, she heard Glerint continue:

"What's more, as long as you want to, you will be my only female companion."

After saying this vaguely, he couldn't help but feel a little feverish in his face.

Alas, compared to Klein's feat of letting the secret puppet enter the Church of the Storm to ask for the seal, I am still too thin-skinned...... But when I was on a mission, I was more cheeky than he was, if not with acquaintances and friends...... Bah, bah, I already have enough personality to be cheeky, that's called seeking truth from facts!

After scolding and choreographing Klein, Gleilynt suppressed his mind and didn't hear Carroll's response, so he turned his gaze to it......

If the eyes could really sparkle, then Glelynt would see it now.

The girl's head was slightly raised, and her delicate little face was motionless towards him...... They were so close together that he could clearly see each other's eyelashes fluttering slightly, and their clear eyes, free of impurities, were staring at him intently, as if they were about to overflow with an incomprehensible light.

Looking at each other, the space was so quiet that you could even hear the sound of a heartbeat, but it was impossible to determine whose heartbeat it was.

After a few seconds, Glerint felt some dryness in his lips and throat, and involuntarily looked at the girl's warm lips......

"Is it just a dinner party? Or a whole night? ”

While Glerint was about to move, the girl asked, with something called hope in her eyes.

Glerint was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he gave up his distracting thoughts, met the girl's gaze seriously, and responded quickly and decisively:

"Neither!"

"It's an eternal commitment, as long as you want to."

When the time came, he finally threw away all his burdens and calmly made a promise.

Hope and the streamer converged, turned into a drop of crystal, silently slipped from the corner of the girl's eyes, stirring up layers of emotions that lasted forever.

Gleilint laughed.

He raised his hand to hold the delicate face, wiped the tears affectionately and gently, but said narrowly:

"Oh, what are you crying about? I won't force you, just forget it if you don't want to! ”

This joke was very effective, the emotion in the girl's eyes quickly solidified, she bit her silver teeth lightly, stretched out her slender hand, took away the warm and rough palm from her cheek, and said incorrectly:

"It's strange that you're so insincere, I'll be willing! …… But for your sake, I'll promise a good night, eh...... Before we say 'good night' to each other. ”

The corners of Glerint's mouth rose, and he continued briskly at the end:

"Good!"

…………

Dick Sauron looked to be in his thirties, and Glerint was four or five centimeters taller than himself, with a tall figure and a handsome face...... I have to admit that in terms of appearance conditions, Gleilynt is ashamed to stand in front of him.

But fortunately, he is Carol's father, not his rival.

It is worth mentioning that Carol's clear brown eyes and smooth blonde hair are inherited from Dick Soren, and his eyes are much deeper than Carol's.

"This is not only a 'girl killer', it should be called an 'all-age killer of the opposite sex'."

After greeting each other at Carol's introduction, Glerint and he greeted each other, and accompanied the girl into the banquet.

Compared with Glerint's curiosity about him, Dick Sauron seemed much calmer, always smiling as if he was nothing, but he was slightly surprised by Glerint's presence, asked a few words, and then didn't talk any more...... Glerint reckoned that he must have seen the fake identity he was using.

Carol's attitude towards Dick Sauron was even stranger than Glerint had imagined.

Compared with the existence of illegitimate children, who may compete with their sisters-in-law for family property, whether it is Intis or Rune, the tolerance for illegitimate daughters is actually much higher...... Carol, on the other hand, was unusually cold to Dick, but he didn't care, and seemed very conniving, very understanding, and very inclusive...... And he doesn't have a wife and children on the surface, which is actually quite rare in Intis, and he should be in love with Ursula's mother and daughter...... This made Glerint a little unable to stand the girl's attitude, and asked in a low voice:

"I think he loves you very much, huh? Why are you so prejudiced? ”

Carol withdrew her forearm from his arm, rolled her eyes, and replied in the same low voice:

"I won't tell you!"

Shh Look at your little tsundere, I don't want to know yet!

He didn't think much about it, he quietly caught the girl's soft, and in her weak resistance to withdraw, his fingers were interlocked...... Carol's eyes widened, but Glerint ignored them, and the scoundrel gnashed her silver teeth.

The scale of the dinner was not too large, with only more than a dozen guests of honor, and no more than 40 people including their relatives.

Compared with Carol, the half-host of the banquet, Glerint received a little more attention, and he politely greeted the guests under the introduction of the girl, while talking nonsense about his background and coping with it quite easily.

"Yo, yes, great performance!"

"I'll just think you're complimenting me."

Facing the girl's teasing, Glerint pursed his lips, and had to admit that since becoming an extraordinary, his other skills have not increased much, and his ability to talk to people and tell ghosts has become more and more proficient.

"Maybe the essence of the extraordinary is 'acting', right?"

Thinking about what he had and didn't have, Gleilynt suddenly remembered something, and asked in a low voice:

"By the way, little Amy, is your dad also extraordinary?" Even if ordinary people are royals, they shouldn't be able to kidnap Ursula?

Carol's eyes widened, and she said "viciously":

"Don't call me that!"

"And what should I call you?"

"Call my name, Ka~Lo~er!!"

Gleilynt didn't lift his eyelids either:

"Okay little Amy, no problem little Amy."

"You!"

……

Carol didn't get up, and after Dick Soren gave a brief speech, the first dance song of the dinner party was played.

Glerint didn't dwell on the question just now, got up and half-turned, and bowed to her with a slight gesture:

"Beautiful lady, your light shines throughout the banquet, may I invite you to a dance?"

The etiquette is perfect and impeccable, but the words are frivolous and unorthodox.

The girl glared at him with disgust, only to feel that this guy suddenly became unusually wanton, and his attitude was so hot that it was embarrassing...... It was still the haze that didn't cause it before, which made her even more intoxicated.

"Of course, it's my pleasure."

Gritting her teeth, she still tried her best to restrain herself, and responded to him with grace.

She could not have refused, and the purpose of inviting Glerint here in the first place was to announce something to Dick Sauron and her father.

Strictly speaking, this was the first time Glerint had accompanied Carol to a formal banquet, and it was also the first time they had danced together.

Accompanied by a light and lively melody, he embraced the girl more intimately than the other dance partners, and whispered in her ear as he danced:

"Today, you are not as free and easy as you were when you were at all? Is there something on your mind? Can you tell me about it? ”

The thick breath made her neck tickle a little on this summer evening.

Glerint didn't think that the girl had just changed her relationship with him, so she couldn't get used to it...... It was clear that she had something on her mind early on.

Carol was slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized that her cover-up for the afternoon was so obvious in the eyes of the caring Glerint.

She shook her head, still reluctant to say more.

She doesn't say it, and Glerint doesn't force it, being as close as lovers, keeping a proper distance and their own secrets is also something that should and must be necessary...... So he cooperated with her to put aside distracting thoughts and concentrate on sinking into the first dance between the two.

The uneventful banquet went on like this.

After the first dance, two or three older ladies and gentlemen invited Glerint and Carol to dance with them, but they both declined.

As for the young ladies and gentlemen, of course, they will not be bored, because Gleilint is present as Carol's lover, and at such times, until the parties are officially engaged, other gentlemen and ladies of the right age will not usually be offended, especially since this kind of private banquet has a little blind date connotation.

To be honest, the successive rejections of elders, older gentlemen, and ladies are not in line with the etiquette of the ball, but etiquette is originally a game between "nobles", binding those who are within the rules of the game, and at the same time trying to make those who are not in this rule accept and approve it, yearn for it, and desire it.

But Carol has been an extraordinary person since she was a child, and she explores the extraordinary world much more than the social interaction between the aristocracy, and for her, that is the more interesting thing.

As for Glerint......

To put it mildly, he understood better than anyone else in the room the essence of the so-called "aristocratic etiquette", which was simply a means used by the nobles to maintain this "dignity" by which they considered themselves superior.

How ridiculous?

……

After the first dance, Carol stayed like this until the end of the dance, and Glerint, as her new and outgoing boyfriend, was of course responsible for accompanying her throughout the whole process.

To be honest, it's more boring than staying at home, at least it's more secluded in the house, and the two of them can talk about extraordinary things or something.

As the ball drew to a close, Dick Sauron, with a nonchalant smile, invited Carol away from Glerint......

"Why do I always think his gentle smile is underwhelming?"

"Is this good same-sex always exclusive? Can't you...... He's going to be my father-in-law! Or is he, as a member of the royal family of Sauron, likely to be an extraordinary hunter, so that is a provocation rooted in his soul? ”

Glerint muttered a few words, a little dissatisfied with his seemingly polite and gentle attitude, but in fact he was unusually strong and arrogant, and took Carol away for no reason.

There is no way to be dissatisfied, who made him Carol's father, and Carol did not refuse to leave with him, she just told Glerint to wait for about ten minutes...... If it weren't for that, Glerint would definitely dare to turn his face directly!

……

Just as he was bored looking around and admiring the finest gold ornaments of Intis, and looking into the corner next to him, his gaze froze, and then he couldn't take any more ......

There was a blonde-haired, white-robed priest standing there!

Adam!!!
