Chapter Twenty-Nine: Invitation to Dance
"Who is that young nobleman? Actually came out with Earl Hall? ”
"Don't you know him? He is Anthony, who has recently become famous. Slo, his father was Baron Carlo. ”
"Oh, it's the one."
The dinner was still going on, and many nobles who were talking saw the two Earls of Hall walking out side by side, and the topic couldn't help but start to drift a little.
After all, as a member of the House of Lords, Earl Hall will be the focus wherever he goes.
"Count Hall, then I'll be out of company."
After returning to the banquet hall, Anthony said hello to Earl Hall, and walked straight towards Audrey in the corner, without the slightest hint of avoiding suspicion, which made everyone present who was paying attention to the situation feel slightly surprised.
This young nobleman is also too bold, isn't he really afraid of causing Count Hall's dissatisfaction?
The eyes of some smart people turned to Earl Hall, who had broken up with Anthony, and seeing that his face did not show any expression, he couldn't help but have a little conjecture, and his eyes gradually became less contemptuous when he looked at Anthony again.
This young nobleman may really deserve their attention.
"Annie, you can help me go to the table over there and get some white grass cakes, I want to have a sweet tooth."
Seeing Anthony and his father appear together, Audrey's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, but soon returned to normal, and after seeing the latter walking towards her, she immediately said to Anne on the side, making her quite helpless.
“... Okay miss. ”
You don't like sweets, do you?
The complaint in her heart was not spoken, and Anne knew that her young lady was going to talk about some personal topics with Mr. Anthony, who had recently become a victim of the noble circles of Beckland, and that she was not fit to stand here, so she walked sensibly to the table on the other side, and waited quietly.
"Congratulations, Monsieur Anthony, and perhaps in a short time I will be addressing you as Monsieur Baron."
Audrey had obviously inherited some of Earl Hall's humor, and what she said turned out to be exactly the same, which made Anthony smile.
"Thank you for the compliment, Miss Audrey, have you had any problems with potions digestion lately? Maybe I can answer it for you. ”
Just like last time, Anthony's fingers tapped lightly on the surface of the cane he was crumbling, keeping the two of them isolated from the dinner party, shielding out all outside sounds.
It's a shame you remember giving me the "audience" potion.
Audrey gritted her teeth, and the little fox in her heart began to blow up, but the aristocratic habits that had been melted into her bones did not make her show any indecent looks, and she still kept smiling.
"I can sense that the potions in my body are being digested, but I've been in a strange state when I've been observing others, well... I can't describe the feeling, but I can feel as if something is broken, and I can't feel the potion anymore, is that a sign that the potion is digested? ”
After pondering, Audrey said how she felt about digesting the potion, which made Anthony's eyebrows slightly raised.
Well, it was he who forgot, it had been two months since Audrey had been given the potion recipe, and although it was not known when the latter had taken the 'audience' potion, it had certainly been more than a month.
A month's time... It is enough for an extraordinary person who generally knows how to "play the method" to digest the Sequence 9 potion.
Anthony smiled wryly in his heart, it seemed that he had really had a lot of things lately, so much so that some common sense didn't even have a chance to be typeset in his head.
"Yes, congratulations, Miss Audrey, you have successfully digested the 'audience' potion, this is the recipe for the potion of Sequence 8 'Mind Reader', and I will also help you keep an eye on the materials you need."
Before attending this dinner, Anthony had already prepared the potion recipe for Sequence 8 "The Mind Reader", just thinking about giving it to Audrey and asking her to pay more attention to the materials needed.
Well... He didn't even think about the question of whether Audrey would have finished digesting the potion.
“... Thank you for the gift, Mr. Anthony! ”
Audrey, who didn't expect Anthony to be prepared, was stunned for two seconds, and then took the folded note with surprise, and seemed to think of something, blinking at the former with beautiful green eyes.
"Is this time still the price secretly marked by fate? Mr. Anthony? ”
"Ahem!"
Audrey's sudden words made Anthony clench his fists suddenly, and coughed violently in front of his lips, while turning his face away, relieving the embarrassment of wanting to pick out a big project with his toes.
I really didn't mean it last time.
Dozens of seconds later, Anthony looked at Audrey again, his expression had returned to normal, but a pair of ears still inevitably became red and hot, which was also keenly noticed by Audrey, who was the "audience", and secretly laughed in his heart.
Mr. Anthony is so cute.
"Uh... The ball is about to begin, so let's get back to the dinner party, as there are already quite a few young nobles ready to invite you. ”
After a pause, Anthony added.
"If you still have any doubts, you can pass them on to me through the ritual on the slip of paper, and I will help you answer them."
The next moment, before Audrey could react to any ritual, Anthony had already lifted the "twisted" ability covering the two of them, and the beautiful music of the dinner party and the conversation between the nobles sounded in his ears again.
"Miss Audrey, could you please join me for a dance?"
As a fanatic fan among Audrey's suitors, Sinkdor. An Ze naturally greeted him as soon as possible and said, even if he was rejected many times, he didn't want to give up.
Get her! Get her!
From the bottom of my heart comes a cry from the depths of some desire, so that Sinkdor. An Ze felt as if his heart was being grabbed by something, and his eyes gradually reddened.
But fortunately, with the experience just now, he has been able to barely grasp his body, and he will no longer show the extreme performance just now.
In front of him, Audrey, who was still thinking about the meaning of Anthony's previous words, suddenly came back to her senses, only to find that there were already many young nobles standing in front of her, including the successors of earls and even dukes.
"Sorry, guys, I already have a dance partner."
After only a second of silence, Audrey blinked her beautiful green eyes and said apologetically to everyone in front of her, making them all feel as if their little hearts were bursting.
Who is it? Who the hell?!
The many heirs of the nobility looked at each other, but they didn't realize who the noble prince who had invited Audrey was, until they saw Audrey get up and walk up to a young nobleman who had recently become famous, and their eyes widened.
That's Anthony. Slo!
"Mr. Anthony, could you please dance with me?"
