Abel's senses were very sensitive. He quickly discovered that Butler Brewer was in something wrong. He couldn't help but feel a little strange. He quickly scanned his body with his mental power, and he immediately found out the reason. In the dark world, He had been fighting for several days, but he had never killed so many hell creatures at once. This time he probably killed nearly 10,000 hell creatures.
Every time a life is killed, a strange aura will be generated. Some people call this aura murderous aura, and others call it a violent aura. When soldiers who have killed people in the army appear among ordinary people, it is easy for them to It can shock ordinary people, which is a manifestation of murderous intent.
Fortunately, Abel did not come back directly after killing tens of thousands of hell creatures, but stayed in Rogge's camp for a few days. Otherwise, he would have appeared in front of the ordinary butler Brewer with the murderous aura he had just finished the battle. Being in the presence of an elf could cause Brewer to have a nervous breakdown.
There are many ways to eliminate this murderous aura, such as taking a peaceful rest for a period of time, going out to see the scenery, or finding someone of the opposite sex. But Abel was different. He directly removed it from the 'Akara's Tent' in his personal storage box. Inside, he used his mental power to take out Jing Xin Yu Yu Xin’s pillow and put it into his arms. Immediately, a cool air came to him. His body and mind seemed to be washed by clean water, and all the hostility or murderous aura in his heart dissipated. .
When Brewer came to the restaurant and opened the dining chair for Abel, he found that the owner seemed to have returned to the approachable temperament he had when he first met. The sense of depression he had just discovered was completely gone. Although he had doubts in his heart, he But he was serving his master seriously as usual, without showing anything unusual.
After breakfast, Abel put the Jingxin Jade Heart Pillow into the 'Akara's Tent' in his personal storage box. He couldn't help but feel a little proud of the treasure he got. Thinking about the soldiers who wanted to be able to interact with ordinary people normally, It would take many years to eliminate the murderous aura, but it only took him a moment to completely dissipate the murderous aura.
Abel was sitting on the carriage in a silver-white dress. Silver-white is the favorite color of elves, but it cannot be worn by ordinary elves. Only nobles among elves can appear in silver-white dresses. Abel's appearance A silver-white dress was specially sent by the Grand Duke's Palace for today's investiture ceremony. At the same time as this silver-white dress, there was also a pure white dress. Of course, this dress, like the silver-white dress, is generally aristocratic. A special style, the pure white dress was in the box next to Abel.
The carriage gradually slowed down. Brewer sat in front of the carriage, turned around and said softly: "Master, the Grand Duke's Palace has arrived!"
"Lord Bennett, I am Derek, the butler of the Grand Duke's Palace. Welcome to the Grand Duke's Palace!" Derek, the old butler of the Grand Duke's Palace, saw the carriage and quickly stepped forward, carefully opened the carriage door, and then stepped back. He bowed and saluted.
As the steward of the Grand Duke's Palace, he certainly knew who the young elf in front of him was. Whether it was the villa on Lambe Road, the carriage in front of him, or the dress the young elf was wearing, they were all made by Edwina. The Duke personally decided that he would arrange it. There were basically no secrets about the Grand Duke's Palace from him. This young elf would most likely become the husband of Countess Lorraine.
Both Baroness Lorraine's future husband and Grand Duke Edwina's attention made him attach great importance to the young elf in front of him, not to mention that today's protagonist is this young elf.
"Derek, thank you for your welcome!" Abel bowed and said in return. Although Derek is a butler in front of him, his status as a butler of the Grand Duke's Palace is extremely high. Of course, the most important thing is that this is Lorraine. The old housekeeper who has watched Luo Lan grow up.
"Mr. Bennett, you are too polite. Please come with me!" Derek made a hand gesture and led Abel into the Grand Duke's Mansion.
Abel's butler Brewer followed behind with a box containing the dress. His task today is to provide Abel with guidance on clothing and makeup, because today is not just an award ceremony. After the award ceremony, There will be a banquet to welcome new members of the nobility into the aristocratic circle of Anjost City. This is an elven tradition, because during their long lives, they will always think of various entertainment lives. Ways, banquets are one of the most important.
In the familiar hall, both the principal and auxiliary seats were empty. Grand Duke Edwina and Duke Albert had not arrived yet. There were only twelve elf councilors in colorful clothes standing there talking to each other. Seeing Abel being led in by Derek the butler, four female elf councilors nodded and smiled at Abel. Some of the other elf councilors looked hesitant, and some simply ignored Abel. In particular, two elf councilors expressed their disdain for Abel. Has a hint of malice.
"Sir Bennett, please wait here while I take my leave first!" Derek led Abel to one side of the hall, bowed and said, and then exited the hall.
The Elf Councilors are the actual operators who control the city of Anyost. They control the city's commerce, security, taxation, army, land, etc. These Elf Councilors are elected from the Elf nobles who own land. They are the agents responsible for managing the city, but they must have a noble status to be qualified for this position.
This is a unique power system of the elves, because the land-owning nobles cannot personally participate in the operation of power. They need agents to help them control power, but at the same time, the agents themselves lose their original noble status because of this status. After a lot of advancement, a class of elven parliamentarians was formed, second only to the great nobles. This class is higher than the ordinary nobles and lower than the great nobles. They have power but are controlled by the great duke and the great nobles they represent. them.
This peculiar balance prevents the power of the elves from getting out of control due to the high status of the person using the power, and allows the real nobles behind them to enjoy their lives without worrying about troublesome government affairs.
In the hall, no matter whether it was the elf councilors who smiled at Abel or other elf councilors who did not show any expression, no elf came forward to talk to him, which made Abel feel like he was out of tune with them.
At this moment, Derek's voice came from outside the hall door: "The noble Duke Edwina and the noble Duke Albert are here!"
The conversation in the hall stopped immediately, and twelve elf councilors, six on each side, stood on both sides of the hall.
Grand Duke Edwina and Duke Albert appeared at the door. Just as they appeared, all the elf councilors in the hall noticed the difference, because today's Grand Duke Edwina was too young and seemed to have returned When she was young, her skin was white with reddish color, as moist as jade, and her long hair as shiny as silk was parted in the middle, flowing down naturally from both sides of her cheeks, hanging on her shoulders, silver. A patterned headband is worn on the head.
The old people among the elf councilors seemed to have gone back hundreds of years in a trance. It was with this appearance that Grand Duke Edwina became the Lord of Anyost City, and they became councilors.
"Bennet, you've been here a long time ago!" Duke Albert ignored the elf councilors. He had a special status and did not care about these high-ranking officials who were high in the eyes of other elves. Instead, he stepped forward with a smile and talked to Ya Bo greeted.
"Hello, noble Duke Elbert!" Abel bowed and saluted, but there was a strange meaning in his eyes. In front of him was his future father-in-law. The traces of time on his face had disappeared, replaced by a handsome look. Youthful appearance.
If we look at it in terms of human age, he used to have the appearance of nearly fifty years old, but now he only has the appearance of thirty years old, while Grand Duke Edwina used to have the appearance of forty years old, and now she has the appearance of nearly thirty years old. Needless to say, these two must have used the 'cleansing lotion' and 'conditioning lotion' refined by Abel.
"You're good, I saw you right!" Duke Albert patted Abel twice on the shoulder, laughed and walked to the auxiliary seat in the middle of the hall to sit down.
Grand Duke Edwina also glanced at Abel before sitting down on the throne, smiled at him, and nodded.
The attitude of the two owners of Anjost City towards Abel made all the elf councilors change their expressions. The four female elf councilors who had just shown their kindness to Abel were already smiling like a spring breeze, while the other elf councilors all changed their expressions. , looking at Abel with a friendly expression.
