Chapter 241 Dance (Asking for Monthly Tickets and Recommendation Tickets)

Rhett stood up, slapped a few gold coins on the table, and looked at the middle-aged man with a serious look: "Let's go!"

"Please follow me, sir!" The middle-aged magician smiled and walked outside with Rhett.

Night.

A secluded manor on the outskirts of the city.

There are many knights patrolling outside, each with a serious expression, exuding a strong atmosphere.

Inside the manor stands a straight castle, all dark.

In the magnificent hall of the castle, there are blue and exquisite crystal lamps hanging, shining brightly, especially bright but not dazzling. This is a very clever way to deal with light elements. Only a master of alchemy equipment with a very high level can do this.

Rhett was taken directly to the manor in the afternoon. Not long after arriving here, he met Prince Hogus who came. After a greeting, he was invited to attend the ball tonight.

Not long after the sunset, Rhett changed into the luxurious evening dress given by Hogus and dressed in front of the mirror for more than ten minutes.

When the time came, I followed Hogus to the hall where the ball was going to be held.

The castle opened its doors to welcome the nobles who came in one after another. There were also nobles in the castle in groups of three or two, scattered throughout the hall, each holding a crystal goblet filled with red wine, chatting comfortably.

There were melodious songs in the hall, spreading to every corner, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

"Prince Hogus, long time no see, you are more handsome than the last time we met." A beautiful woman in a light blue tube dress came over.

"Really? Everyone around me said so, and I am very glad that my men have honest qualities." Hogus smiled lightly and touched his chin, then looked at Rhett and said, "Rhett, let me introduce you, this is the eldest daughter of Marquis Marcel - Xilu Beti, a very smart female knight."

"Ms. Xilu Beti, nice to meet you." Rhett put on a standard smile and simply greeted. Not plain, nor enthusiastic. He is not a noble who is keen on socializing, at least... not keen on ineffective socializing.

"This is Earl Rhett, a very talented magician who lives in the southwest border." Hogus patted Rhett on the shoulder and then introduced him to Xilubety.

Hearing this, Xilubety, the eldest daughter of the Marquis, had bright eyes. Prince Hogus called her very talented. Moreover, she also noticed that the two entered the venue together, which showed that Earl Rhett was highly valued by Prince Hogus...

Xilubety stretched out her right hand wrapped in a black mesh glove and smiled charmingly, "I am also very happy to meet you, Earl Rhett. I have met many nobles in the southwest border, but you are the most unique, and you are a little different!"

Rhett raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand and shook it gently, and asked: "Different? What do you mean...in which aspect?"

"Hehe, I can't tell you now, but can you dance with me later?" Xilubety looked at Rhett with seductive eyes: "I will tell you while dancing..."

Rhett's face did not change, but he was unhappy. It was just a dance, of course he didn't care, but the charming look on the woman in front of him made him want to stay away from her.

So I was ready to find an excuse to refuse.

"Hey, Rhett? You really came to the royal city and fulfilled our promise so quickly!"

A surprised voice came from the castle gate, gathering the attention of some nobles in the field.

A middle-aged woman wearing a pure white wizard robe and simple clothes, with a well-proportioned figure, exuding a strong mature temperament.

It was the Grand Mage Karina. As a Grand Mage and a famous painter, it can be said that she has a wide social circle and almost everyone knows her.

Under the convergence of many eyes, she walked straight to Rhett with a smile, because the other party not only helped her find a mentor, but also needed the other party's help to take care of her daughter's life in Dark Eagle City.

Karina came at the right time, giving Rhett a full reason to refuse.

So he gave Xilu Beti an apologetic look, crossed his body and went directly to Karina, and hugged her gently.

Leiter shrugged and said, "Of course, I learned from Prince Hogus that you will also attend this banquet, and I am very happy."

"Xilu Beti, how about dancing with me later?"

Just when Leiter went to talk to Karina, he learned that Leiter had no feelings for Xilu Beti. A smile flashed in Hogus's eyes. At the same time, he noticed Xilu Beti's embarrassment and stepped forward to resolve it with a gentle smile.

Xilu Beti was stunned for a moment, suspecting that she almost heard it wrong, but she knew very well that it was true. The third prince invited her to dance!

She was surprised again in her eyes, pinching the corner of her skirt and said, "Prince Hogus, I am extremely honored!"

Although Leiter did not turn around to see the scene, he looked up at Hogus again in his heart. As a king, he was not as arrogant and domineering as in some novels in his previous life. Whether it is strength, brains, social skills, emotional intelligence... the overall quality is quite excellent.

Next, with the experience of Rhett and Hogus entering the venue together, and with Karina's help, Rhett shuttled around the corners of the hall, and many nobles in the venue came to talk to him. These people were basically nobles from all over the country, and their family heritage had been passed down for several generations. It was not necessary for all the family members to stay in the territory all day, and there were people specifically responsible for external socializing.

Rhett handled it easily.

Half an hour later.

Amid the harmonious laughter of the nobles.

The lights in the hall suddenly changed, from dazzling and bright to soft and dim.

The space inside the castle is wide, and the dark blue dance floor carpet actually emits a faint fluorescent light under the transformation of light.

There was suddenly a sense of trance in the air.

There are bejeweled ladies and graceful girls, as well as paunchy middle-aged gentlemen and handsome young knights.

In short, after the soothing and gentle music played, the dance partners who had made an appointment in advance walked into the center of the dance floor, put their arms around each other's shoulders, stepped on elegant steps, and sang and danced happily.

"Count Leiter, how are your dancing skills?" Karina sipped the last sip of red wine from the goblet and looked at Leiter and said.

"Well, to be honest, it's just so-so. I hope Ms. Karina won't dislike it later." Leiter shrugged, and his words were not modest. From the time he was born in this world to now, he has not attended a few noble balls. Even though he is already an earl, he has never systematically learned the dance steps of aristocrats.

"Keke, actually... I have noticed it a long time ago, otherwise I wouldn't have picked you." Karina covered her mouth and smiled, and said very straightforwardly: "Because my dancing skills are also terrible, I still entered. I had no choice but to learn two skills. After all, since I was a child, I was not keen on dancing, and I preferred painting to noisy dance parties.”

Leiter looked at Karina in surprise, paused and said, "It seems like I won't be holding back..."

"Actually, that's what I thought too."

The two entered the dance floor, which was not crowded at all, kept a proper distance, and began to move slowly to the beat of the music.

Listening to the beautiful singing, Leiter felt quite comfortable. He looked at Karina's face and said, "Ms. Karina, I have thought of something about your daughter. Maybe you will be curious..."

Karina was indeed attracted to her attention and asked: "Ola? Did she get into any trouble? If she damages anything at your place, everything will be charged to my account."

"Of course not, Aura is a very polite girl." Leiter shook his head and said: "In fact, I accidentally discovered that Aura is very close to a knight under me, and the relationship is... quite ambiguous... "

"What did you say? Aura has a crush?" Karina heard her daughter's situation, her eyes instantly changed from gentle to sharp, and said: "Who is that knight? Count Leiter, please tell me his information. "

"Actually, there is nothing special about my knight. The only thing is that he has excellent talent. He is already a second-level knight at the age of fourteen or fifteen." Leiter said helplessly.

"A fourteen-year-old second-level knight..." Karina was stunned for a moment, her expression suddenly softened, and after hearing this situation, she calmed down. It's not her fault. As a mother, it's natural for her to care about her daughter's condition. It is most effective to pay attention to material circumstances when you do not meet people and have no clear understanding of your true nature.

"How far have they developed?" Karina said calmly: "Isn't it possible that they have already gone to bed?"

"Um." Leiter glared slightly and twitched the corners of his mouth, "That's not the case, it's just a slight sign, and there is no further development. Because you are Aura's mother, I told you this matter."

Karina nodded thoughtfully, and after a moment, she smiled and said, "Thank you for your attention, Count Leiter. I hope Aura has a pleasant journey in Dark Eagle City..."

Is this tacit permission for Lawrence and Ola to be together? Leiter was thinking about it, but on the surface he responded: "Ms. Karina, it's a trivial matter."

At the bottom of my heart, I was wondering if I should find an opportunity to match up and speed up the progress of Lawrence and Aura. If the rice was cooked, how would Karina react...

The two danced awkwardly for a short time before they came to sit quietly at the outer dining table.

After the dance ended, some people continued to stay in the hall to talk, while others left midway.

There were also men and women in heat who went to the vacant rooms specially prepared by the manor...

Leiter found the opportunity when Prince Hogus was alone and approached him.

"Prince Hogus, would you like a drink?" Leiter held a red wine bottle in one hand and a crystal goblet in the other, slowly walking towards Hogus who was standing at the edge of the hall.

"No problem, Count Leiter, did you have a good time tonight?" Hogus smiled brightly, his eyes turned around the dance floor, fell on Leiter again, and said:

"Is there a beautiful lady you like? If so, I wouldn't mind helping you match up. You're welcome."

Leiter laughed and shook his head: "Prince Hogus, don't be joking. In fact, I have something important to report..."

"Is it important? Is it possible that you have a crush on Karina?

Well, this is a bit difficult to handle. Although I can order her, I can't make her give her body at will..." Hogus whispered, and is a woman with children really so attractive?

Seeing that Hogus didn't realize the point, Leiter looked around and lowered his voice and said, "It's a note about a mysterious person..."

hiss!

Hogus took a deep breath, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he quickly looked as normal. He glanced at the hall, his eyes fell on Leiter again, and said, "Is it the note I just received?"

"No, I received it a few days ago. Of course, it has been reduced to ashes..."

"Then you...come with me." Hogus looked deeply at Leiter, then turned around and left through the side door of the hall.

Leiter followed closely behind and left the castle hall directly.

On the dance floor, many people looked at Leiter as he followed Hogus, their eyes unclear...

"Can you tell me now, Count Rhett, what information did you receive this time?"

In a secluded corner of the manor, in the dim vision, there are many powerful extraordinary people lurking. Hogus is next to a thick silver ancient tree, looking at Rhett with a serious look.

Rhett deliberately looked around, with a cautious look, and whispered: "The information recorded on the note is not much, but it is absolutely crucial. There is an evil Saint Domain strongman who will attack the ring tower of the Rem Kingdom..."

"Rem Kingdom?!"

Hearing this force, Hogus frowned deeply.

He didn't expect that this Saint Domain strongman would actually attack the Rem Kingdom? Could it be that the force targeted by the Saint Domain is not only the Jinlun Kingdom, but also other countries...

If so, it is still good news for him. After all, it is always good to have someone share the pressure.

But no matter what, with the previous history, Hogus believes that the Saint Domain is definitely on the side of the orcs. Therefore, the attack on the Rem Kingdom, the Jinlun Kingdom cannot just sit back and watch. Fighting against the orcs is the common mission of all human alliances. Losing any one of them is a blow to the whole.

And with his overall view, he also analyzed that if the ring tower was destroyed, the Kingdom of Rim would inevitably be in chaos, which would inevitably give the orcs an opportunity to take advantage of it, which would be tantamount to weakening the power of the human alliance.

So he said solemnly: "Count Rhett, are you sure you are not joking? You should know very well what this information represents. If it is a deception, how serious the consequences will be..."

"I swear, every word I said is true!" Rhett responded seriously.

"Okay, I will report this matter." Hogus looked at Rhett deeply, "If you can stop this disaster in the end, you will definitely do a great job! Otherwise, I don't need to say more about the consequences..."

Rhett nodded heavily, then pretended to think for a while, and hesitated: "Prince Hogus, actually, I have another thing I want to ask for help..."

"Just say it." Hogus said very straightforwardly. In fact, he tended to trust Rhett in his heart. He knew the other person very well, and it didn't seem like he would play such a big joke. Therefore, he paid more attention to Lei Te than before.

"I want to ask you about the news of the elves."

Two-in-one, I've been waiting for a long time
