"Welcome everyone to the reception, and thank Lord Arthur for his generosity. Lord Arthur will provide all the fine wine today!" Speaker Gould stood in the middle of the reception hall, holding a glass of red wine in his hand and said with a smile.
He raised his glass of wine to Lord Arthur who was standing beside him as a token of his gratitude.
David smiled helplessly, this time the drinks were indeed provided by him, and Speaker Gould offered to buy them at that time.
This time, Speaker Gould was the host of the reception, so how could David ask Speaker Gould to buy it and give away a thousand bottles of red wine directly.
Fortunately, the space inside the space pendant is large enough, the energy avatar also has free time, and there is enough red wine prepared.
Of course, David also understood the meaning of Speaker Gould, which was to show all the guests that he has a close relationship with him.
"The reception of the Supreme Council has officially begun!" Speaker Gould announced loudly holding up the red wine.
The top aristocratic musicians in the divine world played music, and the reception officially started with all the guests raising their glasses high.
David was a little thankful that he brought four fifth-level Templars here. As Speaker Gould said, there were a lot of female guests at the reception.
If it weren't for the four fifth-level Templars surrounding him, some female guests would have come over long ago.
The female guests who can participate in this kind of reception will not be ordinary women. Most of them have the status of baroness and are real nobles. All the female guests have received strict education in noble etiquette.
Even the dress on her body is full of luxury.
It can be said that these women are considered to be the top women in the divine world, no matter in terms of appearance or inner cultivation.
David also intends to leave heirs for the top nobles he created in the divine world. Unfortunately, his biggest problem now is his body. He has transformed from soul to body into a young black dragon. At least he needs to pass the legendary stage to fully Control the body, otherwise it will hurt the woman who is close to him. Besides, even if Emma is not around when he can control his body, no matter how hard he is, it will be in vain.
So David asked four fifth-level Templars to stand at the four corners beside him. It is estimated that there are not many strong people present who can break through this defense.
"That's Lord Arthur!" In the small circle of young nobles, a female lady secretly glanced at David on the other side and said softly.
If it was another man, the lady would have gone to meet him directly if she wanted to, but Lord Arthur's obvious gesture of not wanting to be disturbed, coupled with Lord Arthur's prestige, made the lady dare not go forward at all.
But this does not prevent the dame from admiring Lord Arthur, being strong and self-disciplined.
"Yes, I really want to go and get to know each other!" The other countess nodded repeatedly.
The words of the two female lords made the men in the small circle very unhappy, but they all knew very well in their hearts that they could not be compared with Lord Arthur.
Their family brought them to the reception, and Lord Arthur was a member of the Supreme Council, so he could be regarded as half the owner of the reception.
Several female lords have a different mentality from the men. They came to the reception, and the task of the family is to get them close to Lord Arthur.
You must know that a woman who can obtain a title is highly valued by the family, and to some extent it can be regarded as a bargaining chip for the noble family.
Obtaining the title is not easy, and requires the completion of considerable tasks. These are not something the lady can do, and must use the power of the family knights, and the family knights will take risks to complete them.
Most of the baronesses who participated in the reception this time had a clear purpose. In the past, the family entrusted this kind of task, which would make the baronesses disgusted.
But this time is different. The baronesses are very enthusiastic about the task. It is the dream of all baronesses to be like this young and powerful lord who holds great power and wealth.
It's just that Lord Arthur is too low-key on weekdays. Even if Lord Arthur holds a reception, it's not the turn of these duchesses to attend, let alone get close to Lord Arthur.
Just when all the baronesses could only look at their targets and could not get close, Lord Fred led a young baroness towards Lord Arthur.
"Lord Arthur, can we have a chat?" Lord Fred stood outside the four fifth-level Templars, looked at David and asked with a smile.
"Lord Fred, please!" David said with a smile and nodded.
The fifth-rank Templar in front of him stepped aside, and Lord Fred came to him with the Duchess.
"This is my daughter Dorothea, she inherited the blood of the black dragon, and her knight talent is not bad!" Lord Fred introduced the duchess beside him to David.
David glanced at Dorothea. This young woman was already the pinnacle of the Earth Knight, and she was only about seventeen years old. It can be said that she was very talented.
You must know that the inheritance of top nobles is not like ordinary nobles who forcibly elevate the realm of knights regardless of the consequences. The knights of top nobles are extremely stable at each level, which is why top nobles are easy to produce high-level knights.
After seeing Dorothea's strength, David then looked at Dorothea's appearance.
Women who can participate in the reception are not ugly, most of the women can be called stunning, and Dorothea is also a top existence among so many women.
This is also easy to understand, most of the top aristocratic men in the aristocratic circle will marry beautiful women as their wives. After countless years of genetic adjustment, the top aristocrats, both men and women, are very handsome.
"I've met Lord Arthur!" Dorothea said with a knight salute.
David noticed Dorothea's etiquette, and only then did he realize that Dorothea was not a duchess. With the power of the Morse family, it would not be difficult for Lord Fred to obtain a title of duchess for his daughter.
"Miss Dorothea, hello!" David returned a knight salute and said with a smile.
"Lord Arthur, Dorothea has been fond of knight training since she was a child. She doesn't want me to arrange a knighthood, but wants to obtain it herself!" Lord Fred continued to introduce David with a smile.
"I didn't expect Miss Dorothea to have such courage!" David sincerely praised.
David has also participated in the noble feat mission, and he knows how risky it is.
The intelligence is sometimes inaccurate, the enemy will become unknown and powerful, and many knights die in missions every year.
"Lord Arthur, you are my role model, and I hope to become a Templar like you one day!" Dorothea said with bright eyes.
However, David found that the eyes Dorothea looked at him were very familiar. It was the eyes of Star Federation fans when they saw their idols.
"You're very hopeful!" David encouraged Dorothea, not wanting to dampen Dorothea's confidence.
Dorothea has the blood of the black dragon, and her chances of breaking through to a Templar are much higher than ordinary knights, but becoming a Templar is not just talent, it also requires a lot of luck.
"I will work hard!" Dorothea said, clenched her fists very unladylike.
At this moment, David discovered that Lord Fred had quietly left.
"Lord Arthur, you are also of the blood of the black dragon, what kind of exercises do you practice?" Dorothea asked curiously.
If David hadn't seen Lord Fred's body beating when he was leaving, obviously frightened by Dorothea's question, he would have thought it was Lord Fred's order.
"What I practice is a breathing method suitable for the blood of the black dragon after modification based on various knight training methods!" David replied without paying attention.
This kind of questioning about skills is absolutely forbidden among knights, and it has already involved the secrets of knights.
The chat between David and Dorothea made the ladies around see hope, and another lord brought his daughter over, joined the chat, and left his daughter behind.
Inexplicably, there were six beautiful beauties around David unknowingly.
Chatting with a beautiful woman can be regarded as a pleasure, but when there are more beautiful women, David can't stand it anymore. None of these beautiful women are simple, and they all speak with dark edges.
The relatively innocent Dorothea kept touching the space ring on her finger, and David understood that it was the knight preparing for battle.
I believe that if this is not the reception of the Supreme Council, Dorothea might have already put on knight armor to solve the problem.
"Excuse me!" David said aloud when he saw Speaker Gould leading Charlie not far away.
Several beauties saw the direction David was going, and they didn't dare to speak out to persuade him to stay.
"Lord Arthur, if you like it, I can be your introducer!" Speaker Gould joked when he saw David approaching.
"I need to stabilize my strength, let's wait a few years!" David said with a smile.
Speaker Gould took a serious look at David, then looked back at Charlie, and at some point patted Charlie on the back of the head with a hand.
"Look at Lord Arthur, and look at yourself, go back and retreat for three months!" Speaker Gould said in a deep voice.
Charlie looked at David with resentful eyes, not understanding why he fell to such a point.
"Charlie's strength has improved rapidly, so it's good to consolidate it!" David said with a smile.
David's words are not nonsense. It is probably stimulated by his continuous improvement. Charlie's strength has improved a bit quickly, but this is definitely not a good thing.
David's own situation is special. Without special abilities and a strong spirit, the rapid increase in strength will cause instability in the foundation, which will cause great trouble for the promotion of the fifth-level Templar in the future.
With an identity like Charlie's, he must inherit the Main family in the future. Without the strength of a fifth-level Templar, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public.
"Lord Arthur, I'm afraid your strength surpasses mine!" Speaker Gould said with the power of blood that only two people could hear.
Chairman Gould knows about Charlie's situation, but this is because Charlie's cultivation is under his control, and he can use the power of his blood to probe the situation in Charlie's body at any time.
And David knew Charlie's situation with just a glance. The difference made Speaker Gould a little startled.
"Recently, my strength has improved a little!" David replied with a smile.
Speaker Gould shook his head and did not speak. He thought of the stable strength that David just said, and he even doubted whether David had hope of breaking through level five.
That was the dream of Speaker Gould. For this dream, four of his partners from childhood to adulthood gave their lives.
"If you can reach another realm, be sure to tell me, let me feel that realm!" Speaker Gould said softly.
"Definitely!" David said in a deep voice, looking at Speaker Gould's firm expression.
"I hope you succeed as soon as possible!" Speaker Gould said with a smile.
"Charlie, come with me to meet a friend!" David didn't want to disturb Speaker Gould for too long. Today is an important day for Speaker Gould, he said to Charlie.
"Okay!" Charlie said weakly.
But when he saw Speaker Gould looking at him, Charlie cheered up.
"Knight Miller, we meet again. This is Knight Charlie. Get to know him!" David saw Knight Miller when he took Charlie there, and he also hoped that the two could become friends.
"Lord Arthur, do you really think we don't know each other?" Although Charlie said this, he still greeted Knight Miller seriously.
"Lord Arthur, I met Knight Charlie at a reception before, but we didn't communicate much!" Knight Miller said after greeting both of them, not as casually as Charlie.
"Knight Miller, I have never known your family, can you introduce me?" David said to Knight Miller with a smile.
Excitement appeared on Knight Miller's face. Lord Arthur's reputation is prominent. Although his family is also a top nobleman, it can only be regarded as a low-ranking existence of top noblemen.
Being able to let the family get acquainted with Lord Arthur is of great benefit to the family.
Charlie was very familiar with David, and he couldn't help being surprised when he heard David's words.
You must know that David doesn't pay much attention to any power, and it is extremely rare to take the initiative to know a certain nobleman.
Especially in David's current position, there is no need to take the initiative to get acquainted with others, even the top nobles, as long as he wants to, there are top nobles rushing to make friends with him.
His attitude also made Charlie pay attention to Knight Miller. Although he didn't know the reason, it must be related to Knight Miller.
David didn't mean anything else. When he was at Battle Star, he was taken care of by Knight Miller and Baron Du Bois. gave him all.
Now that he has some ability, David naturally takes care of the families of Knight Miller and Baron Dubois as much as possible within his ability.
Under the guidance of Knight Miller, he came to the other side of the reception. When David saw Lord Llewellyn, he recognized that he was the Lord of Conant's top noble family.
The Conant family, or all the top nobles standing on this side of the reception, were separated from the top nobles on the other side in terms of territory.
Although the Great World of Gods has a planet-level portal, it is impossible for ordinary goods to go through the planet-level portal. The transmission fee alone cannot make up for the price difference of the goods.
Therefore, the nearby planets rely on cargo airships similar to the "starry space airship" to carry out a large-scale exchange of goods, which also makes the nobles of the divine world appear to be separated from the star field to a certain extent.
