"Distinguished guests from the city of Mora, today is a wonderful day for His Royal Highness Prince Philip to visit the city of Mora, first of all, allow me to extend the warmest welcome to His Royal Highness on behalf of you, and secondly, I would like to express my great gratitude to all of you for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend this feast. I now invite His Royal Highness the Prince to speak for us. ”

Amid loud applause, Prince Philip stepped up to the podium, where Viscount Avis, who had made the opening remarks, cleared his throat and began his usual speech: "I am very happy to be invited here, the city of Mora is a beautiful, great and traditional ......"

During the Prince's speech, Gehr and Sofia were standing quietly in a corner, enjoying the highest standard of dining in Mora. There was no one within a few meters of him, except for the waiters who passed by, and it was obvious that the guests here were consciously staying away from Gehr, not wanting to have any contact with him.

In his eyes, the delicacies in front of him were much more important than those nobles who were not very pleasing to the eye.

Sophia was also quite happy, after all, she was still at a somewhat gluttonous age, and although she was a noble child, she was not qualified to participate in a banquet like this before.

In the midst of the bustling banquet hall, it was as if this corner where Gehr was located was separated from the rest of the place, and it was full of a sense of inconsistency.

Something is inexplicably wrong.

Gehr looked around expressionlessly, the atmosphere in the banquet hall had been very lively, and there was nothing wrong with it, but he could sense a gloomy feeling all around him.

"You...... Hello......" Just as Gehr was considering what the problem was, a somewhat hesitant female voice appeared beside him and interrupted his thoughts.

Gehr tilted his head slightly, a noble lady, probably about the same age as him, a little familiar.

"Is there something wrong?" Gehr distracted himself as he casually dealt with the noble lady.

"I ...... I'm Evelyn of House Crookson, and we met a month ago in the mound on the edge of Garro's estate. ”

Although Evelyn was a little nervous and almost speechless when she saw Gehr, coupled with the embarrassing memory, it was even more difficult for her to speak.

Originally, Evelyn would not have attended this kind of banquet, but when she accidentally learned from her father that the new head of the Colbenson family would come to Mora City and attend the dinner, Evelyn knew that this might be her last opportunity, and if she missed it, she didn't know when she would be able to meet this "perfect knight" in her mind again, so she secretly hid from her father to join the dinner party, and successfully found that Gehr.

By constantly saying "Evelyn, you can do it" in her mind, Evelyn then took a deep breath and closed her eyes, plucking up the courage to say the words as if she were pouring beans.

"Oh?" Gehr glanced at Evelyn a few more times, and finally connected the noble lady in front of him with the girl who was tied to the ground and asked for convenience, "Well, I remember, hello. ”

Evelyn closed her eyes nervously and waited for Gehr's answer, her heart pounding, that is, she hoped that Gehr would think of her, but she hoped that she would not think of her embarrassed appearance.

When she heard Gehr's affirmative reply, her heart suddenly settled, and the stories of princesses and knights recorded in the book turned over in her mind, and her whole person trembled slightly with excitement, and her face felt hot, and a wonderful feeling of dizziness kept hitting her consciousness.

But apparently she was going to be disappointed, and after Geer had spoken those words, she didn't hear the next words for a long time, and finally she couldn't help but open her eyes and saw that Gehr was not paying attention to her, but was looking around, as if she were a cloud of air in front of her.

This is an extremely humiliating situation for a noble lady!

A wave of anger rushed from her abdomen to her brain, Evelyn could clearly feel the heat coming out of her face as if she was about to melt her skin, and she couldn't help but grab Gehr's hand and shout impulsively, "Aren't you ready to take responsibility for what you did?"

Ice.

With Evelyn and Gehr as the center, the people who were a little closer around them all looked at this side in surprise.

Although they didn't want to see Gehr, they were still very concerned about this person who killed Earl Carter and could still be so free, and although Evelyn on the side rarely attended this kind of banquet, as the eldest daughter of the former deputy chairman of the Viscount Elvis, she knew a lot, and then connected the words that Evelyn blurted out before, which immediately caused a whisper.

Moreover, the sudden coldness of this area also attracted the attention of people in other places, and the scope of whispering continued to expand, and the hall began to be filled with noisy sounds, and even Prince Philip and Viscount Evis on the podium also cast concerned eyes.

When the servant next to him quietly told Viscount Avis what he had heard, the viscount's face immediately changed, and he grabbed a guard next to him and said something nervously, the guard nodded, and walked down the podium to Gehr and Evelyn.

Evelyn knew that something was wrong with her words, and sure enough, she suddenly became the center of attention in the banquet hall, and the burning eyes of the playfulness that shot from all directions made her feel like her head was about to explode, and she couldn't help but lower her head, but her hand grasped it tighter, as if a drowning man was grasping a straw.

Gehr didn't feel anything wrong, but those mocking eyes that far outweighed other emotions made him a little impatient, but Sophia pouted a little angrily and stared at Evelyn viciously, but Gell wouldn't do anything until she spoke.

There was a stalemate for a while, and finally, just when Evelyn felt that she was going crazy, the guards sent by Viscount Evis arrived.

"Miss, please go to the rostrum, and your lordship, please go too. ”

The guard's words made Evelyn nod her head again and again, she had long wanted to get out of this embarrassing situation, the guard came just in time, but she didn't think about it at this time, wouldn't it be better for more people in the banquet hall to see her if she went to the rostrum?

Gehr felt that he couldn't find a source that made him feel wrong in this position, so he might as well try a different place, and the rostrum was the most suitable place to observe the entire banquet hall.

"Sophia, come with me. ”

"Yes. Sophia nodded.

"Your Excellency, the Viscount has only invited you. The guard reminded from the side.

Gehr didn't pay attention to the guard's reminder at all, and pulled Sophia, who was a little hesitant, with his left hand and walked towards the rostrum, while his right hand was also firmly grasped by Evelyn, and finally Gehr dragged the two of them alone.

The guards followed and wanted to say something, but they didn't dare to say anything.

Walking up to the podium, Gehr and Prince Philip exchanged face-to-faces, and then walked to the back point.

"Gehr, I'm sorry, it's my daughter who is willful. Viscount Ivis wanted to come over and ask Evelyn what had happened, but Evelyn pulled Gehr and hid her body behind him, refusing to speak to the Viscount, and Viscount Avis could only apologize to Gehr in a whisper.

Gehr said that it didn't matter, his mind was completely occupied by the scene when he met Prince Philip in front of him, and he always felt that the prince looked a little strange when he saw him, of course, he couldn't see it on the surface, it was completely his intuition.

On the rostrum, because he was watched by all the nobles present, it was not suitable for conversation, so Viscount Evis whispered a few words and then stopped talking, and everyone waited for Prince Philip's speech to end.

Evelyn realized that it was a big mistake to go up to the podium, but at this time she was not allowed to go down, so she could only use Gehr's body to block the prying eyes of the audience.

Why is he here?

Gehr used the observation perspective of the rostrum to carefully observe the crowd below, and soon he saw a familiar figure under the prompting of the surveillance system, it was none other than Valerian, an intelligence officer of the Brotherhood of Steel who had worked with him for a while.

He was pretending to be a waiter serving the guests at this time, and if it weren't for the fact that Gehr reflexively recorded his appearance and body shape data in the previous contact, Gehr would have been difficult to recognize for a while.

What is he doing here?

It stands to reason that he shouldn't have been here, and he came in in a sneaky disguise. If so, is there something he is planning? But what if he doesn't know the way?

Just as Gell pondered the purpose of Valerian's presence, Prince Philip's speech came to an end.

“...... Let us drink this cup and wish Konatas prosperity!" Prince Philip raised his glass and said the toast that represented the end of his speech

"Cheers!" the aristocrats in the audience also raised their glasses.

Shocking protrusions!

"Die, bear the wrath of the Garro family!"

A silver glittering knife flew out with angry words, aiming at Prince Philip on the rostrum, and the person who shot it was none other than Valian, who had just been discovered by Gehr!

Before the heads of the nobles present could react, one of the guards on the left and right sides of Prince Philip stepped forward directly, and an extra shield had been placed in his hand, blocking Prince Philip and stopping the flying knife.

At this time, the nobles in the hall reacted - the prince was assassinated, although it was not successful, but it also made their emotions start to strain.

It was as if Valarian had kicked off the prelude, and at this moment, many attendants and guards suddenly drew their swords to kill the nobles around them, and began to converge in the direction of the rostrum.

The banquet hall was in chaos.
