Chapter 107: Prom 2
Strong as a bear, with short blue hair......
In an instant, Gehr was able to identify the person who suddenly appeared, it was none other than the Grand Prince of the Principality of Haything, Flomien Jean Anslin, the leader of the Sword of Feinriku Warband, known as the "Bloodeater", and one of the three giants of the Traveling Council, the most powerful organization of the Principality of Haythting.
According to the intelligence, Flomien and Salorath are twins of the same mother, and it is accurate to say that Flomien should be the younger brother, but as the oldest male in the next generation of the royal family, he was given the honorific title of the eldest prince. The relationship between the two has always been very harmonious, and they have generally maintained a common direction of advance and retreat, but Flomien can be said to be a military fanatic, usually with his warband, eating and lodging in the barracks, and rarely participating in other people's banquets, even Salorath's.
Does his sudden appearance this time mean anything?
Gehr narrowed his eyes slightly.
It has to be said that as a soldier, Frommien can be said to be almost perfect, and Gehr felt an inexplicable burning sensation at a glance, which was a phenomenon of his own belief and his own body having become perfect, resulting in the release of spirit.
Constant victories have always fed back confidence, and the pure to the extreme self-recognition has formed a unique temperament sublimation, which can affect the sensory system of the people around him, which is the path from the transcendent knight level to the great knight level, and it is also the path that Gell is taking, but obviously this big prince has gone further than him.
From Gehr's side, the people who had been surrounding Salorath immediately dispersed, and Flomien walked up to Salorath and seemed to say something to her, and saw Salorath nod. He and Flomien then walked to the back of the hall and quickly disappeared into the hallway.
Timingly. The music in the hall began to play again, drawing everyone's attention away from the two departing powers. Once again, it was focused on the ball itself.
"Dance with me. Camerita's voice suddenly reached Gel's ears.
Gell turned his head to look at Camerita, and saw that she had already stood up, and then looked in the direction of her gaze, and sure enough, the crowd saw Ursula walking back.
"Good. Gehr stood up, and he made a choice between helping his companions and possibly offending the powerful. But out of respect for Lucarin, Gell turned to look at her. "I'll go with Camerita for a while. β
"Go, go, I'm tired, I'm going to have some more rest. Lucarin waved her hand "unconcernedly".
Saw Ger and Carmelita walking towards the dance floor. Ursula, who was still a little far away, stopped, frowned, and turned in another direction.
When Gehr and Carmelita stepped onto the dance floor, they were just perfunctory, and they just danced a few simple steps to the music to kill time.
"If you don't mind, can you tell me why you, as a goddess, are leaving the temple?" After a while, Gehr, who felt a little bored, simply chatted with Camerita.
"This is the practice of the priest before he took office, and the task I was assigned was to walk around Konatas. Camerita replied dryly.
"Isn't your church only active in the Amlock region, and all the goddess officials involved in the practice have to travel that far?"
Carmelita shook her black hair.
"The place of practice is drawn at random. There are people from near and far, and where to go is a vote. β
"How?"
"A talented woman like me, who is as beautiful as me and who is extremely outstanding in terms of intelligence and martial arts, will always be envied by her colleagues. β
Gehr laughed. But it is strange that her attitude of affirming her own merits as if nothing was happening does not give people any unpleasantness, as if it were just right.
Think about it. Gell nodded in agreement: "You're right. So you've been ostracized by your colleagues?"
"That's right, they used the name of this spiritual mission to kick me out of the temple. Carmerita's expression and tone remained calm. As if the unlucky guy who was being ostracized wasn't her.
Gehr didn't doubt what Carmelita said, but. This kind of description gives him more or less room to use his imagination.
Perhaps it was an internal factional struggle, the faction failed and was expelled to fend for herself, or perhaps she was forced by the lustful church hierarchy to be kicked out of the temple after harshly rejecting the other party. This is a common episode for troubadours to recount at the beginning of a sagaβafter the Holy Spirit was beaten into a reservoir dog by Konatas, this kind of joke began to take viral.
But come to think of it, these speculations are not impossible, no matter how skilled she is at martial arts, it is too dangerous to send a woman on a mission, even if she is accompanied by some sect members.
"What about you? What are you doing with Lucarin in Bern?"
"I wanted to come and find something, but when I got here, I found that I didn't need it very much. Gehr shrugged.
"Yes. Carmelita didn't ask much, which also meant that the conversation between the two was over.
After changing the music twice, Camerita suddenly closed her eyes and her lips moved slightly, as if she was talking to something. After a while, she reopened her eyes, and her emerald pupils reflected Geral's face again, and she said very flatly, "All right, we can go down." β
"You're not worried about him anymore?" asked Gell with some curiosity. Naturally, this is what he refers to Ursula.
"He's gone. β
"How do you know the way?"
"The elves said it. β
"I don't understand what you're talking about. Gehr frowned slightly, could it be that religious people like to make some mysterious things? The bad impression given to him by the last Holy Spirit Sect was deep-rooted, which made him subconsciously disgusted with this kind of thing.
"Perhaps. Carmelita's voice was still as calm as usual, but after seeing Gehr's somewhat unhappy expression, she paused and explained: "It's like a baby, he can hear people's voices, but he doesn't understand what these sounds mean. People like you, who have not been specially trained, are like babies, although they hear the wind. But I couldn't hear the whispers of the elves who came in the wind. β
In this case, Gehr is acceptable. It may be similar to what he has seen such as magnetic perception training and thermal energy sensing training, and it belongs to a special way of receiving external information. And the elves she spoke of might be one of this special powers.
Returning to his seat, he never saw Ursula again.
Not only that, but until the end of the feast, Flomien and Saloras, who had only appeared in a hurry, did not reappear.
When the music in the banquet hall is soothed again, it means that the banquet is over and the guests begin to leave.
After saying goodbye to Carmelita, Gehr and Lucarin got into the carriage they had come in and left the palace.
......
"It's not an order, it's a hiring assignment. You can choose what you need. The eldest princess Saloras, dressed in a tight dress, leaned casually on the back of the sofa, showing her beautiful curves in front of Gehr without hesitation.
The third time they met, three different faces, this time she showed her amorous side in front of Gehr again.
"Can I know what the mission is?" Gehr didn't move at all on his face, as if there was no such thing as a princess in front of him.
This is the library that Ger has come to every day these days, and when he came here today as usual and was brought into the reading room, he was surprised to find that there was already a person waiting for him in the room, it was Princess Salorath.
And Salorath came to him for a simple purpose, to hire him for a mission.
in the rules of the organization. Higher-level personnel have the right to issue tasks to subordinate tasks, of course, this is not forced, just like Gehr previously offered a reward for the spirit sacrifice of Philimis in the organization, seeing that this task can be accepted or not. Regarded as a core level of gold-level leadership. Each of them had the right to summon their staff for a mandatory task once a year, known as the Golden Convocation Order, and it was this right that Salorath now exercised.
Of course, in order to ensure the rights and interests of the task performer. This kind of golden rank has the right to pay far more than ordinary tasks as compensation.
Gil had no choice but to leave everything in Konatas behind. The good news, though, is beyond the generous payouts. He didn't have to worry about receiving such an order for the next year, and another rule of the organization was that members who had received a golden summoning order could refuse other summoning orders for a year.
But even if you take the task. Gehr also doesn't want to be at the mercy of others, so he always has to ask first.
"Of course there is no problem, your task is to protect a person for a while, the seventeenth princess you saw yesterday. Salorath didn't sell it, and said the content of the task straightforwardly.
Immediately, the image of the little girl appeared in Geer's mind. "There's no way I'm going to stay here for long. β
"Two months. Salorath held out two fingers, her skin glistening in the light.
Gell nodded: "Yes." β
"So happy to work with. Salorath smiled with satisfaction. "Now it's time to talk about your compensation. Money, power, martial arts, or ...... Me?"
His Highness smiled. Gell shook his head slightly. "Actually, my request is very simple, I just want to go to the Royal Library to see what I want, I heard that there are many books that cannot be found in the market. β
"No problem. Salorath was slightly stunned, and after a moment she returned to the spring breeze on her face. "I can grant you this request. But it's not worth what you give. In addition, as a reward, I will personally give you a full set of knight equipment from the Glorious Empire period, I hope you will not dislike it. β
"Knight equipment during the Glorious Empire?" Gehr was shocked, in the records of the organization, this equipment was processed by ancient alchemy, and it has a very unique place, there are very few in existence, and even the organization does not have a complete set, and more importantly, it is said that each set of equipment contains the secret to the Great Knight Rank, which makes this suit even more precious.
This set of equipment can be passed down as a family heirloom.
Gehr couldn't help but marvel at Saloras's generosity.
"Thank you, Your Highness. β
"It's nothing, I don't need this kind of thing, it's a warrior like you who is suitable to have it. Salorath chuckled, stood up and stretched, her expression calm, not at all awkward. "Alright, that's it for today, and tomorrow morning the carriage will come to pick you up. See you tomorrow, then. β
"See you tomorrow, Your Highness. (To be continued......)
