When she returned home, Faras was surprised to see her father sitting at a dining table filled with sumptuous food, waiting for everyone.

Seeing his little daughter and her friends walking in, Luke smiled and said, "You're welcome, come and sit down."

Faras asked in surprise: "Father, don't you usually come back very late? Why did you come back at noon today? Have you prepared a sumptuous lunch?"

Luke smiled and said, "Daughter, although I am usually very busy, how can I not care about something as important as my daughter going to participate in the Royal Athletic Competition?"

Faras smiled and said: "That's great. Father, I even boasted that I wanted to ask you for help this morning."

Luke waved his hand gently, motioning to the servant behind him to pour wine for everyone, and then said: "Get the information about your opponents, right? No problem, I can put it in your study at dinner tomorrow."

Farasi said: "Really? But you don't even know our opponent?"

Luke patted his hands, the door of the room was opened, and four people wearing extremely ordinary clothes walked in. These four people look very ordinary and have nothing special about them. They are the kind of people who will be quickly forgotten after just one glance.

The four people stood respectfully at the door, bowing slightly to Luke, who nodded slightly in return. Then Luke pointed at Faras and said: "My little daughter, you all know her. During the Royal Athletic Competition, the four of you took turns to watch other opponents' games, and recorded them in detail, then sorted them out and gave them to me. daughter."

The leader of the four people bowed deeply to Faras and said in a low voice: "As you command, my lord."

Luke waved his hand, and the four people filed out.

Luke smiled and said: "I will also arrange for someone to get your opponent's information, so that if you compare the two aspects, the written content will be almost the same. The rest will depend on your on-the-spot performance."

Faras smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, Father." After saying that, Faras stood up, stretched out three fingers to gently pinch the crystal glass filled with half a glass of Bordeaux in front of her, and suggested to everyone: "Ryan, and our Leis Other members of the team, why don't we toast my father together? If we offend him, we will suffer if the information is randomly changed."

After hearing this, everyone stood up one after another, raised the crystal glass in front of them, and followed Faras to toast Luke. Ryan hesitated and picked up the crystal glass. Although he didn't drink, he couldn't refuse on such an occasion, right? What's more, the other party is Farasi's father, so he can only win with his scalp.

After drinking, everyone sat down. After a glass of wine, Ryan's face suddenly turned red, and a smile appeared on Farasi's lips. Luke teased Ryan and said, "Ryan, you are good at everything, but you still need to practice your drinking ability. You will be useful in the future."

Ryan didn't understand what he meant. He looked at Luke with doubtful eyes, and then turned to Faras, hoping to get some hints from Faras's face. Unexpectedly, Ryan saw that Faras's face was also blushing with embarrassment. , he became even more strange.

Seeing Ryan looking at her, Farasi's face turned even redder. When she usually encountered this kind of embarrassing situation, she would usually turn her back and reprimand the other person loudly, and also take the opportunity to avoid such embarrassing scenes. But today , she had just tasted the taste of love recently, and it was her father who made fun of her. There was no place for either of them to vent, so she had to lower her head shyly.

It was even more strange for Ryan to see Farasi blush suddenly and then lower his head. His doubtful eyes were darting around, hoping to get some hints.

In this situation, neither Red nor Oz would be able to point out Ryan, otherwise, wouldn't they have sent it to Faras to vent? Alando and Alina don't know much about this aspect. Alina is young, while Alando has spent many years in isolation and is not very familiar with certain etiquette of the nobility.

Ryan's appearance was all caught in Luke's eyes, and Luke couldn't help but secretly laugh. It seems that this Ryan is really innocent. Compared with those who approach Faras for certain purposes, this young man Ryan is almost not picky. , although there are some differences in worldliness and sophistication, Luke believes that these are just because he comes from a remote background and has not learned in this area. He believes that over time, he will become more capable.

Luke smiled and diverted his words. He said to Red: "Red, I have relied on you to help Farasi in the past six months. Come on, let me toast you."

Red stood up quickly and said to Luke, "This is what I should do. My teacher has a deep relationship with your father. Don't keep talking about such trivial matters."

Luke and Red drank the wine in one gulp, and the servant standing aside quickly gave them another glass.

Luke smiled and said to Oz: "Oz, if I read it correctly, you must be a warrior. During the competition, the warrior must rush to the front line and use his body to protect his companions, even using himself as a human shield. It’s very admirable, come on, let me toast you.”

Although Ozzy is usually careless and even a little addicted to wine, it is just a hobby of his. When this kind of situation comes, the experienced Ozzy naturally knows how to deal with it.

Oz stood up, grabbed the crystal glass, and drank from it.

Luke praised Oz and said: "It's really simple, but it seems that it's not mine. Come on, get a bigger cup."

Soon, a servant straightened a thick horn cup and placed it in front of Oz. Another servant picked up the wine bottle and slowly poured a large glass of wine.

Oz picked up the horn glass, drank all the wine in it in one breath, and then placed the glass heavily on the table. He said to Luke: "Good glass, where did this thing come from?"

Luke smiled and said: "What a great drinker. I have had this cup for several years, but this is the first time I have seen someone who can drink it all in one go like you. It is said to be made from a certain drink from the North Tarun Grassland." Made from the horn of a giant beast, the orcs in the North all use this cup to drink. Generally speaking, we humans don’t drink as much as the orcs, so not many of us can drink it all in one go.”

Oz nodded. For him, who is generous, it feels good to use a large glass like this with wine. A small crystal glass like that is only suitable for women and children.

Luke waited until the servant filled the glass with wine. He held the stem of the crystal glass with three fingers of his right hand and gently shook the glass to let the red wine in the glass continue to ripple in the crystal glass. Then he moved his face a little closer. Holding the rim of the crystal cup, your nose slightly smelled the aroma of wine emanating from the cup.
