Montenegro is always more lively at night than during the day.
Hundreds of luxurious carriages have been parked at the famous Bavaria Square. Although they are called carriages, the carriages are actually pulled by horses.
Very few. Silverback Bighorn Sheep, Miniature River Dragon, Two-Headed Chimera, Magical Puppet... Various precious magical beasts or fantasy beasts have replaced horses as the driving force for these fancy cars. They are not necessarily really suitable for this kind of work, but their natural The numerical value can show the status of the car owner and the huge financial resources he possesses.
A carriage came slowly, struggling to find a place to park on the Bavaria Square. Compared with other carriages, this carriage pulled by two white horses looked a little, no, very shabby. This completely black carriage is like an antique that has just been dug out of an ancient tomb. Together with the old coachman, it gives people a feeling of old age.
On the carriage, the Emerald Dragon Princess Ysera, the wife of the Imperial Marshal in gorgeous clothes, looked at Goron in front of her and asked with a chuckle: "You look a little nervous?"
Goron shook his head and did not answer, but looked down at himself with a wry smile. He was wearing a long aqua dress, yes, it was an authentic set of women's clothing. Gronn is now extremely confused and depressed. Out of various considerations, he has not refused Ysera's proposal to become her and Retusus' adopted son, although he has not seen the legendary hero so far. face, but this is the closest he has come to his mother's whereabouts so far. However, what Goron never expected was that after becoming the adopted son of the Retusus family, he would still show off in women's clothing. Is this considered an "adopted son" or an "adopted daughter"
Since the new relationship was confirmed in the morning, Goron, the adoptive mother of the Dragon Clan, handed him over to the hired palace teacher for intensive training in palace etiquette. The empire's etiquette system, which has been shaped for thousands of years, is enough to be considered torture for a little ogre who has grown up in an unfettered environment. Fortunately, Goron had been carefully taught by Cassandra, the big boss of the old street, and this serious teacher wearing gold-rimmed glasses only selected the most basic and common etiquette procedures to teach. Gron finally survived all her classes. But the subsequent image design was not much easier than the etiquette course, including clothing cutting and modification, hair design, banquet and evening makeup... A large group of men and women who came out of nowhere were busy around Gron, and from time to time they were busy with things such as The style of the pins was not bright enough, the hair style was too mature, and the trivial details that could not reflect the lively temperament of the "Miss" were noisy. Goron was tossed around like a doll by them, and it took a full four or five hours for him to be freed. But it was almost dark, and just when Goron thought he could finally rest, his adoptive mother Ysera, who had been missing all day, suddenly appeared and told him that she was going to attend an important midnight drinking party...
"What a beautiful child. I didn't expect you to be able to reach this level after dressing up. I think the ladies at the reception will scream at you soon."
Goron calmly slapped away Ysera's palm that was about to touch his face, and said: "Ysera... No. Adoptive mother, is this why you hired those palace teachers and tailors and hairstylists to torment me? ?”
"Otherwise, what else would you think it was for?" Ysera pinched Goron's face reluctantly, and then said: "Don't underestimate today's cocktail party. There will be many distinguished ladies and ladies. Attend. There will also be the best wine waiting for you, delicious food cooked by the royal chef, and the performance of the bard Melenda is also rare... "
It looked like Ysera still wanted to talk endlessly. Gron finally couldn't suppress his curiosity and interrupted her: "Why. Why are you interested in these things? You, you are..."
"It's an ancient wisdom dragon... right?" Ysera finished what Goron wanted to say. But he couldn't say anything. With his head lowered, Goron couldn't see her face clearly, but he heard something different from her self-deprecating tone.
"If I don't do this, what else can you ask me to do? Transform into a dragon and sleep for hundreds of years, or rob all the gold coins in the city and pile them in my home? Hahaha … In your eyes, no, in the eyes of the world, can the Dragon Clan only do this kind of thing?”
Goron was sure that Ysera must have other reasons, but when he wanted to inquire further, Ysera had already opened the door and got out of the carriage, so Goron could only follow.
The Bavaria Square is brightly lit, and melodious and beautiful music echoes in the swaying magic lights. The long tables placed in the open air are filled with delicacies. Noble men and women in trivial costumes wander around and meet people they know. Then they got together in twos and threes and exchanged a few words. Compared with this, the impromptu cocktail party hosted by Baron Baring was as shabby as a country people's weekend party.
Goron quickly scanned the area, and was not surprised to find that there were many people who were either deliberately covering up or blatantly observing him. Their eyes were either curious, amazed, or intoxicated, but what really surprised him was that To Goron's surprise, the Emerald Dragon Princess standing next to him only attracted very few attentions, and most of them were with disdain and contempt. Goron really couldn't understand that facing a head that could destroy him just by breathing, Even the ancient dragon that destroyed the city, how could this group of trash in front of them who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun behave like this.
"The child is here. Oh my God, it is just like the legend. He is just like the same mold as that adult. It seems that the rumor is not groundless. I am afraid that he is really the illegitimate son of that adult. ”
"Listening to what you said, I started to believe it a little bit. By the way, look at him and that shameless woman together. I heard that the adoption decision will be announced tonight. I think... hum, it can't be her in name. His adopted son is actually his own flesh and blood, look at his appearance, hahaha... Letusus is really a coward. "
"Isn't it? Have you heard that rumor? Not even Miss Maria, or even the other two children..."
"Shh~~! Are you two crazy? You dare to say such nonsense. It's okay to say bad things about the female dragon, but it's different if it involves Retusus or his children. If Retusus' men, especially the three dragon knight generals, hear this, not to mention you will be killed on the spot, even we will be implicated. "
…
Goron activated his second divine power and eavesdropped on everyone's whispers. This occasion was the best time to collect intelligence. However, Goron hadn't heard any news about Rafana or Hakulili yet, but he was surprised first. I heard a lot of gossip about my "adoptive father and adoptive mother". Goron turned his head and looked at Ysera next to him. He was not sure whether the Emerald Dragon Princess heard those merciless remarks, but seeing the indifferent look on her face, he either didn't hear it or was already used to it. .
At this time, a tall man walked over and came to Ysera. After the greeting ceremony, he chuckled and said: "Mrs. Ysera, I am very happy to see you here. You are still as beautiful as ever." 's thrilling."
"Thank you, General Zuod." Ysera returned the favor with a smile. Seeing Zuod's eyes shift to Gronn beside him, she quietly pulled him to her side, made a very intimate gesture, and said: "This is Gloria, the newly adopted son of Lei Se and I. Come on, Gloria, hurry up and say hello to the general."
After returning the salute according to the instructions of the palace etiquette teacher, Gron did not dare to raise his head. From General Zuo De, Gron felt unprecedented terrifying pressure, as well as a faint, vague hostility. Gronn suddenly felt alarmed. Under the gaze of the other party, which seemed to have infinite penetrating power, he felt that his internal organs and even his ogre's true body seemed to be exposed. Gronn instantly judged that this was a truly powerful man whose strength might even be greater than that of the Dragon Rider General Rhine he had seen before, and he was also the strongest being he had encountered so far. As for the appearance of the demon god he was "lucky" to see in the abyss of hell before, and the emerald dragon princess Ysera beside him now, perhaps it is because the difference in strength between the two parties is too great and they are not in the same plane at all, or maybe it is because Because of other reasons that Goron could not guess, Goron felt nothing.
"Lord Zuo De, please don't bully my child." Ysera took a small step forward and quietly blocked Zuo De's gaze from Gron, making the ogre boy feel lucky from the trap. The feeling of escaping.
"A very good boy. When I was as old as him, I didn't have so many colorful experiences, and he didn't hide so many secrets." General Zuo Deda's eyes flashed with a strange color, but it disappeared immediately. Go, he looked away from Goron and said with a smile: "Thank you again for coming to my little girl's birthday party. Your presence will be my greatest honor. The guests should have almost arrived, and the party should officially begin. Come on, Mrs. Isera, please take the beautiful Miss Gloria and enjoy it to your heart's content. There are many people here tonight just to appreciate the peerless beauty of your mother and daughter."
Ysera seemed to be very helpful to General Zuo De's polite words. She patted Gron's back gently, indicating that he could move around as he pleased, and then said to General Zuo De: "General, may I ask you a question?" Have you seen that unfulfilled child of mine? He has a very good relationship with your daughter. I think he will definitely show up on occasions like this, right..." (To be continued...)
