The nobles talked and laughed happily, and the crystal chandelier in the center of the hall was shining brightly.
Spread the light to every corner of the banquet.
After registering his name, Si Tu walked into the hall alone.
If my brother was on duty, he definitely couldn't sit with her.
Just as Si Tu was considering where to sit, a delicate voice came from not far away,
"I have already reserved a place for you, come quickly."
Charlotte beckoned to her, very cheerfully.
This is the first friend Si Tu met in Wangcheng, and she did not expect that she would come to the state banquet today.
"I heard that you ran away from home. I still wanted to find you, but when my little uncle found out about it, he locked me up."
If she hadn't been begging him for a long time, Charlotte probably wouldn't be able to come out until now.
"Are you trying to find me? You obviously want to sneak out and play by yourself."
Having been together for ten years, how could Si Tu not know the character of the little girl in front of him.
"Tsk, Tutu, why do you want to expose others."
The girl propped her chin and pouted in dissatisfaction.
If her little uncle heard this, he would have to be locked up for another ten days and a half months.
"But by the way, did you find anything interesting during your trip?"
She has stayed in Wangcheng for eighteen years and has never set foot outside the world, so she is naturally curious.
“Meet a lot of people…”
Si Tu lowered his eyes, and the bits and pieces of what happened a month ago emerged in his mind.
Now Charlotte became even more interested, and asked in surprise,
"Based on the pampering you received from the Crown of the Knights, it's pretty good to be able to endure you being outside for a month."
If she sneaked out of Wangcheng, her little uncle would probably have caught her back in three days.
But before Charlotte asked further questions, she was interrupted by a high-pitched communication from outside—
"The high priest of the temple, Lord Dashiel, has arrived."
As soon as the words fell, the nobles who were talking to each other stopped immediately, stood up and looked at the solemn man at the door.
Through the crowd, Si Tu also took a few curious glances.
Unexpectedly, her eyes met his directly in the air.
"Sacrifice to the Lord?"
He looks quite young, but his temperament is a bit indifferent.
Those eyes were even more devoid of any emotional color, as if they were empty people.
Seeing that her good sister was interested in him, Charlotte quickly shared all the information she knew.
"He was the one who got the oracle. Before he entered the temple, he was also from a noble family, and his status was extremely noble."
Whether in the south or the north, the people's worship of gods has risen to a fanatical level.
It is fear, but also admiration.
Since the great war ten years ago, the desire for peace has become more and more important in the hearts of the people.
The temple became their spiritual sustenance.
And Dashir, as the only person who has obtained the oracle, can be regarded as inferior to one person and above ten thousand people to a certain extent.
"It is said that he was standing at the gate of the temple at that time, and his whole body was full of golden light, as if the god of light had come to the world."
Charlotte added.
But she also heard about these things from her little uncle. As for the truth and falsehood, what does it have to do with her
Golden light
Si Tu frowned. Could it be that a light bulb was installed on top of his head
Before she could think about it, the second communication sound resounded through the hall.
"Who is this person?"
She searched in her mind for a long time, but there was no information about this man.
And Si Tu was waiting for Charlotte beside him to answer, when he turned his head, he saw that this little girl had gone somewhere.
Saw a ghost? run so fast
"Hamill Reyes, the richest businessman in the mainland, unexpectedly he is here."
Aisha handed her a glass of sweet milk and explained.
"How did you come here?"
Shouldn't she be with Odyssus now
"That's why His Royal Highness the Demon King is worried about you, so he let me come."
Aisha's eyes gleamed when she saw Situ.
She was finally able to stay with Her Majesty the Witch again, so happy!
Looking in the direction where the lords were seated, Follett had already entered the arena.
But the seat of the lord of the sixth district is still vacant.
It's almost time for the state banquet to start, where is Odyssus at this time
Just when Si Tu wanted to ask clearly, a third voice came from outside.
Situ: ...
Whether the valet who was passed on had a grudge against her would always interrupt her questioning.
"The lord of the first district, Cairns, and his wife have arrived."
Following everyone's gaze, Si Tu saw a tall and elegant man walking into the hall with his beautiful wife on his arm.
The relationship between the two seemed to be good, and Cairns took care of his wife's pace, and his movements were much slower.
But even if it was so unruly, none of the nobles present dared to stand up and say that they were not.
In the age of supremacy of power, no one wants to get angry.
But thinking of the messy ledgers in the first district, and what Eric told her, Si Tu frowned again.
It seems that these people in the royal family are quite talented in acting.
It wasn't until the last communication sound that Si Tu came back to his senses.
All the guests present got up one after another, looked towards the door, and bowed respectfully.
"Your Majesty the King and Your Highness the Prince, come—"
It's odd though, how the royals chose to enter through the same entrance as the guests.
After all, don't the royal family have to flaunt their own uniqueness
But in the next second, the sound of communication outside the hall made Si Tu's doubts even worse.
"Your Majesty the Templar Commander Yin Enmian, the leader of the Quebec Party, Lord Andre, has arrived."
Why did my brother and Andre enter the arena with the royal family members
This is obviously not in line with court etiquette!
What kind of calculations are these people planning...
At six o'clock, night fell, but the entire royal city was brightly lit, welcoming the arrival of the state banquet.
As the host of this state banquet, His Majesty the King will of course come to give a speech before the banquet.
"It's a great honor to see you all again at the annual state banquet in the North..."
According to the previous process, after this speech, it is the commendation of Andre.
Si Tu passed through layers of figures, and looked at the man sitting in front of the hall with normal expression.
As if feeling something, Andre looked at her, his eyes still gentle.
Situ's violently beating heart gradually calmed down under his comfort.
With him around, she can always feel at ease.
"On behalf of the royal family, I would like to thank you all for your contributions to the North over the years..."
Si Tu's heart trembled as his eyes fell on his elder brother who stood by the king's side to protect his safety all the time.
The man kept his eyes fixed, and his right hand was always holding the hilt of the sword that symbolized the glory of the head of the Knights Templar.
The white uniform of the Knight Commander made his expression more solemn and inviolable.
