Chapter 190: Sweeping

Curt stretched his body, feeling a little unaccustomed. The shirt of the dress was quite tight, which affected the movement of the arms. At his waist hung a ceremonial sword. The blade is slender and has a protective grip. But when used in battle, it's useless at all.
"It's almost time. ”
"It's a bit human, but it's a pity Uncle Eoham can't see it. ”
Prince Wren and Adios stood on the side, also dressed in formal attire. Today is the day when Curt was made a marquis, and they are an important supporting character. Further afield, are Randall and Fana. They were dressed in sky blue and fuchsia respectively, and attracted more attention than Curt.
Presumably to emphasize the relationship between the breasts, Randall opted for an off-the-shoulder low-cut style. Her shoulders are as warm as jade, reflecting an alluring color. The trench on the chest is reverie, and stuffing it into a hand is not a problem. The young nobles cast fiery eyes one after another, eager to compete to be the messenger of the flowers.
Relatively speaking, Fana is much more low-key. She wore long gloves and a large lace headdress that covered a third of her face. But even with the cloth covering, Fana's slender figure is still quite eye-catching. Her legs were more than half her height, and the lower calves were visible between the gaps in her fringed dress. The middle-aged aristocrats nodded their heads, admiring Fana's elegant sexiness very much.
The enemy is going to increase again......
When the nobles wanted to be courteous to Randall and Fana, but were stopped by the four sacrificial swords and driven away without mercy, Curt smiled bitterly. This arrangement was a request shared by Randall and Fana, who were not interested in paying attention to ordinary people. As for the consequences, it can only be borne by Curt. There are rumors about 'the little pervert in Thousand Laws City who occupies two peerless flowers'. Recently, it has spread more and more widely.
I'll take it. What's going on?
Since there is no way to argue. Curt simply acquiesced.
Thankfully, Jeunty and Kylie didn't get into similar trouble. As a skilled courtesan, Jemmi skillfully moves among the nobility. She accurately grasps the proportions, does not give anyone a chance to gain an inch, and at the same time avoids offending certain people. As far as Curt knows, there was a private duel recently. The two sides fought for the priority of inviting Jiemi to dance, but the losing side lay on the hospital bed and moaned, and the winning side was also taught a hard lesson by the elders. No one thinks it's Jemmy's fault. That's where she's so clever.
As for Kelly, she basically doesn't appear in public. She is quite self-conscious, and is only bent on being Curt's underground lover. Kelly and Curt have rarely seen each other lately, and I heard that she ran to learn how to shoot from Cameron to beat the time.
Curt looked around and sorted out the relationships in his heart. Yes, what you have is worth a fortune. As a man, it's a perfect life. If you want, a group of wives and concubines is just a small meaning. He will also be in charge of the Ten Thousand Armies, commanding vast territories.
After all, something is missing.
Curt closed his eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly. Behind him, Wren and Adios glanced at each other. At the same time shrugged. In their eyes, Curt was smiling with pride. As for the hollowness in that smile. Not everyone can understand it.
After a lot of preparations, Curt finally arrived in front of the main hall of the palace. More than 100 nobles are among them, and they are all the core figures of Qianfa City and Otlan. Curt walked the red carpet and walked slowly. The two knights opened the door for him, and they were greeted with a roar of cheers. Curt walked slowly forward, swept up in thunderous applause.
This is a new starting point, Curt raised his hand, thinking numbly. Qianfa City has finally gained a foothold in the Central 6, and after that, it will be a short period of recuperation until it has accumulated enough strength to invade countries further afield. The sun was shining, and Curt was slightly dizzy. He looked up and saw the Gurrant wearing the crown. Gulrant's majestic gaze made it impossible to imagine that he was just a pawn in the hands of Ioham.
Fran stood behind Gourant's right, dressed in a sumptuous and lovely gown. She gazed at Curt with pure joy, without the slightest scheming. On the other side, Ai Ye, who was dressed in a pure white dress, pouted and turned her head away with her hands on her hips. Under Curt's recommendation, Aiye became a good friend of Fran. She knew it was Curt who broke Fran's cage, but for some reason, she hated Curt like a cockroach.
Twenty knights divided into two columns, drew their swords in unison, and raised their sharp two-handed swords aloft to form a curtain of ten crossed swords. Curt calmly walked through the sword forest, without the slightest hesitation or timidity. Baron William, who was on the steps ahead, raised his hand and announced in a loud voice:
"Praise him for his bravery and loyalty!"
"The glory of Alteran! The goddess of the night guards us with a sword!"
The nobles echoed in unison, deepening Curt's smile. It's just a boring ritual, and who else would believe that the Goddess of the Night is still guarding Otland?Curt walked up the stairs and passed by Baron William. He stopped two paces away from King Gurant and fell to his knees. As he had done during the drill, he drew his saber and handed it forward.
"I, Khrant V, accept your sword. ”
King Gourant grasped the hilt of his sword and withdrew the sword from Curt's hand. He slapped the plane of the blade on Curt's shoulder, and continued solemnly:
"You are hereby accepted as a member of Alteran, Curt. I will also grant you the status of a marquis, which you deserve......"
"I'm against it!"
Suddenly, someone in the ranks of the nobles raised their hands. King Gourant, who had changed color, looked over and saw a man with an impassioned expression. It was Baron Mitterrand, a conservative leader in his fifties. In the previous wars, he did not contribute much. But at this moment, he said with an arrogant face:
"Hold to the teachings of our ancestors, we are noble warriors. Accepting a mage to join us is a stain on the whole of Otland!"
"yes, I don't think it's appropriate. ”
"If you can, you'd better think about it again. This is an extraordinary matter, so why hasn't a round table been convened to discuss it?"
Many nobles chimed in, causing confusion. King Gulant on the high platform was so angry that his arm trembled, and the ceremony was messed up after all. Although the nobles of the difficult state had privately expressed to the King of Gurant in advance that they were willing to accept Curt. But judging from the results, it was nothing more than a trick of hypocrisy and wrongdoing. In their superficial understanding, now that the overall situation has been decided, Aotland no longer needs Qianfa City.
"Watch your words! Are you defying the authority of the royal family?!"
Baron William roared, and his voice suddenly muted halfway through the roar. He was so angry that he wanted to rush over and strangle the nobles who were singing the opposite. Betraying the Thousand Laws City is tantamount to self-destruction, and those stupid nobles don't seem to know this. They exchanged heads and cast contemptuous glances at Baron William.
"After the death of Duke Henry, the person who appeared in his place is really unusual. ”
"Oh, Duke Henry's long-time close friend, is he a shameless dog?"
"Otlan's national disgrace, traitor, he should be hanged......"
Whispers came and went, at a volume just right for Baron William to hear. This must be considered a collective rebellion, King Gurrant thought anxiously. Then he felt a light on his hand, and saw Curt stand up with the blade on his sword. In the spotlight of everyone's eyes, Curt turned around leisurely.
"Daring fanatic!"
"Kneel! Do you know etiquette!"
"Barbarians from the Thousand Laws City!Guards!Where are the guards?!"
"Catch him, it's **naked contempt for the king!"
Curt spread his hands and ignored the shouts coming from all directions. He pressed his hands together and said in a loud voice:
"Where did you get your courage, ungrateful scum? What did you do when the sword-wielding nation of Otlan was in crisis? How many of you came to fight bloodily when Wing Night Fort was besieged by heavy troops? The road to attack Jepon was long and difficult, and did you drive your horses together? Now that they have settled down, even Jepon has been conquered. So you come out thinking that you will be able to enjoy the same peace again. This is the glory that your fathers have bequeathed to you, the spirit that you have inherited, the stupid and arrogant, the stubborn and self-serving. You can't see the reality clearly, and you only dare to jump out and shout glory and tradition when you are safe. Nobility is insulated from you, you are just a bunch of rats in the ditch. Do you think that by uniting you, you can resist the changes of the times?"
The angry scolding suddenly rose to a higher level, overpowering Curt's voice. He calmly cast the spell, and then said in a volume ten times the previous one:
"The army directly under the king, and the main force of the city of a thousand laws, are far away in Jeppen. You think you see an opportunity to force His Majesty Gulant to take back his life? In that case, I should also set a good example. Anyway, there will be this day, and it's better to come early than late. ”
A nobleman squeezed his way out of the crowd, grabbed the guard's sabre, and charged at Curt. He saw Curt contemptuously stretch out his hand to himself, and then he was shocked, and more than a dozen bloody ribs pierced out of his back at the same time, and the whole person fell down like a broken chest.
"Hands-on. ”
Curt said coldly, and by the way, he saluted the stunned Baron William. The ladies on the high platforms on both sides let out exclamations and were pushed away by the ten secret hunters. Five sacrificial swords pushed open the gate and entered in formation. They drew their swords in their hands, and the masks glowed red.
"W-It's a conspiracy!"
"We've been tricked!"
"Run!"
The nobles who had been in high spirits before let out a miserable scream, and the wolf fled in a terrible way. Naturally, they did not expect that Curt had already included the purge of the conservative forces in Alteran. What Curt hates the most is that someone is dragging his feet, after all, pig teammates are far more terrible than god opponents.
Before the gunshots rang out, Curt reached out and covered Fran's eyes. He looked at the standing King of Gurant, and then pulled Aiye to his side and cast a silent enchantment spell. (To be continued......)
