Chapter 19: Suspicion out of jealousy
There was a long silence, and a secret sigh.
Etrina's thoughts were flying in the endless air of the ocean, but she was really stunned for a long time, which had caused the strange eyes of the audience at the table, but they were all very tacitly unaware that they did not make a sound, probably still immersed in the beauty of Fang Cai's dreamlike dancing.
It wasn't until she adjusted her mentality that she gradually came back to her senses, since that road was so ethereal, why bother with it, living in the present is the most important thing, no matter what happens in the future, at least they are still young, at least he is sure that he is taking him as a friend, at least, he is opposite him, at least, at this moment!
"Condell, my esteemed knight, may I invite you to dance with me?" said Eterina, softly, with a smile on her face.
Condell was stunned, to say that he didn't want to dance with Etrina, it would be absolutely a lie, but he would only be "martial" and not "dance...... It is said that safflower needs green leaves to set off, but a hibiscus flower in the water with sunflower leaves on land really has nothing to do with the word "beauty".
"I'm sorry, beautiful princess, my dancing level is really not on the stage, I'm afraid I'm wrong for the princess's Yaxing. "Condell Dao.
Itrina couldn't believe it, she, was rejected, whether he said he wasn't good at dancing or not, anyway, she was rejected, Condell, you bastard!
Long Zhongyang was also secretly scolding in his heart: This human being is too hateful, he doesn't want this opportunity, Eterina took the initiative to invite him, but he actually refused.
At this moment, Long Zhongyang couldn't care about the arrogance of the dragon clan, and said: "Etrina, Condell may be afraid that the dance on the mainland will not be in tune with us, so how about I dance with you." ”
Itrina smiled quietly, learning Condell's tone and said, "I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness, my dancing level is limited, I'm afraid I'm not qualified to dance with the noble dragon clan." ”
Long Zhongyang was stunned for a moment, he condescended to be noble, but he didn't expect Italina to give no face at all, but she refused so tactfully, hiding needles in his heart, which made him angry but couldn't find a reason to be angry.
Eterina was embarrassed that Condell couldn't understand the amorous feelings, how could she have the heart to dance with this arrogant dragon prince?
Looking at the faint loss that flashed faintly between her beautiful eyes, Condell felt a little regretful at this time, what he missed was the erotic encounter that countless males dreamed of!
Back in her seat, Italina didn't continue to show a sense of loss, the mermaid clan's spiritual power was very strong, and she hid her emotions well.
Long Zhongyang was very unhappy in his heart, he was like a starry moon in the dragon clan, how could he ever be so aggrieved as today, all of this was brought to him by the human being in front of him. However, with the previous lesson, he would not easily fight Condell again until he was absolutely sure of suppressing him.
He decided to attack Condell in a different way, and that was to use the merfolk clan to put pressure on him, a standard trick of scheming.
"Mermaid King, I don't know when the Mermaid Clan established a connection with the Barrow Continent Mercenary Regiment?This Condell Knight is young and promising, presumably the Night Knight Mercenary Group must be strong!" Long Zhongyang said in a slightly questioning tone.
The Mermaid King is so scheming, how can he not hear that he is forcing the Mermaid Clan to quickly take a stand, don't forget that you are a subordinate race of the Dragon Clan, and if you get too close to humans, you will not arouse the vigilance of the Dragon Clan?
"Don't get me wrong, the second prince, our mermaid clan is definitely a loyal courtier of the dragon clan, and we don't have too much contact with other forces, Condell was accidentally rescued by Iterina, and by chance, he helped the mermaid clan defend against foreign enemies, one grace for another, that's all. ”
Long Zhongyang asked with suspicion on his face, "A sixth-level knight needs to be rescued because he accidentally fell into the water?"
In the face of Long Zhongyang's questioning, the mermaid king still needs to consider how to answer to be more reasonable.
Itrina answered: "Why does His Royal Highness the Second Prince bother to chew words like this, it is because my father doesn't know the specific details of my rescue of him, so he said a word." ”
Condell continued, "I was attacked by a group of pirates, and I fell into the water when my strength was exhausted, and I was a little ashamed to say it. There is nothing wrong with him calling Jiaolong a "pirate", Jiaolong attacked them and did it as a robber at sea, so his words are not a lie, and it does not violate his chivalry.
One of the three of them sang one and one as they could, and the words sounded reasonable and flawless, but the seeds of doubt had been planted, even if it had to grow under any circumstances, Long Zhongyang would still be skeptical, but there was no excuse to make things difficult again.
The Mermaid King diverted the topic: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, I think that this invasion of the golden-veined spiral-toothed shark may be inseparable from the demon clan, they have a trace of blood connection, and according to my investigation, the three-headed eighth-order golden-veined spiraled shark that attacked the fish-man palace from the Blue Spirit Algae Forest was smuggled by the Demon Shark clan."
Long Zhongyang pondered for a moment and said, "But is there any other evidence?"
The Mermaid King shook his head and said, "No, of course, this is mainly speculation." ”
Long Zhongyang said: "I will pass on your speculation to my father, and we will also investigate in depth, if the Demon Shark Clan really colludes with foreign enemies to deal with the Mermaid Clan, the Dragon Clan will definitely make the strength of the Demon Shark Clan a thing of the past, and make them as endangered as the ancient remnant race."
Listening to the arrogant words of the prince of the dragon clan, the mermaid king knew that with the arrogance of the dragon clan, he could do what he said, but the four powerful golden-veined whirltooth sharks were all dead, and there was no proof of death, so it was not easy to find out what valuable evidence was not easy, and Long Zhongyang's guarantee was inevitable and would be over.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the dinner was about to end, Long Zhongyang got up and said, "Thank you for the warm hospitality of the mermaid clan, helping you repel strong enemies is what I should do." I will go back to my father and take my leave. I'm glad to have made this human friend today, let's ...... It's a long time coming. ”
