I grabbed it over.
"Needless to say, because of course we're going too!" said
the latter, who was very smug and underwhelming.
"What's the matter? Do you have an invitation?"
"That's right, it's going to be tonight, but the royal banquet, even the princess will be there, and there is no problem in saying that it is the most high-class dinner.
It must be heavily guarded, and unless the princess has permission to do so, it is absolutely impossible for idle people and the like to enter without an invitation.
And Pique, a little goblin who is unknown, was not invited.
I don't know why it has such a strong confidence that it can get through in a magical aura that is difficult to break through at the royal level.
"We have, we can rub Ulch. Reaching
out and stroking my smooth chin, I murmured
, "Oh, Brother Ulch is a famous nobleman, can he even bring an extra pet into his portion
?" "It's not a pet! It's a partner, a partner! What if we're not in danger?" "Don't
be kidding, how can a royal banquet be dangerous? Hearing
my almost rebellious nonsense, Ulch's face changed.
"Ma'am, outside... Especially at banquets, it is better to be cautious in words and deeds.
"I know, I know, it's just to tease this little guy. "
Hey!" the
little one jumped up and down on my shoulder, venting his frustration.
"Let's go, ladies and gentlemen!," I said enthusiastically like a travel guide, "
how short are the wonderful days. More importantly, I was quite worried that the first thing I would do in the banquet hall would be to bow down and apologize for being late. How embarrassing it must be, ask in advance, everyone doesn't want to do this, right?"
In the splendid hall, it was dark night, but the shining lights were brighter than the sun, and even the white tiles seemed to add a luxurious and proud color, and the guests sat down separately, chatting in small pieces.
The harp is melodious and the song is tactful.
The bright red walls are covered with the family flags of the princes and nobles, including lions standing tall, roaring wolves, turquoise two-horned reindeer...
The only thing that could be recognized was the white-gold iris that had been photographed, located in the center, like the stars holding the moon, baked by the heat of the blazing furnace, as if it was about to manifest itself in real form.
The song is tactful, and the harp is melodious.
The tantalizing aroma of unknown fish sprinkled with sauce and red peppers, mixed with the aroma of toasted white bread ripe malt, and the blood-like drink resembling wine is served in a transparent glass, and the strong smell rushes to the tip of the nose when you take a sip.
It's
like half-baked tomatoes squeezed into juice with loofah and capers, and even the taste of soybean soup and arsenic is slightly better than that of soybean soup and arsenic
! Sour, bitter, astringent, and spicy, the four flavors explode in my mouth like a particle bomb! Is this full of marble?
Suppressing my desire to scold, I covered my mouth and silently put down my wine glass.
Fortunately, this is a corner where no one notices, so it doesn't matter how distorted the expression on his face is.
I swallowed the 'poisonous juice'.
And when the ignorant Aisarina asked me how it tasted, she told her quite 'kindly' that it was quite good.
I watched her raise her head with her cup, and her slender neck moved rhythmically, slowly feeding the drink in.
I didn't feel a trace of guilt in my heart, and I even wanted to laugh a little, and I couldn't wait to see the girl's ugly appearance.
But...
"Not bad, indeed. The
blonde girl drank with a relaxed expression, the corners of her mouth outlined a pleasant arc, and then said something I never expected.
Huh?
I
took another big sip of disbelief.
"Bah, bah!"
and then vomited most of it, and the bad taste lingered in my mouth, and I was speechless for a while.
The girl looked at me with concern, and I
almost understood the reason why she couldn't cook well.
With a yawn, I glanced up at the bright silver cylindrical magic clock hanging on the wall.
It was nine o'clock in the evening.
As perhaps the most inconspicuous of the royal banquet halls, I was rightfully confined to a corner.
It's not that I want to complain, I don't think there's anything wrong with it, because I've never wanted to be in the limelight, but it's better to be in the middle of nowhere.
It's just....
"It's boring. "
It's a big deal!
I expected it, but I really didn't expect the so-called banquet to be so boring.
When eating, you should strictly observe table manners, keep your back straight, be meticulous, and eat according to the prescribed steps and sequences, as stiff and contrary to nature as a soldier who only cares about obeying orders.
finally survived this period of pain, and then it was a complicated and cumbersome ceremonial social time between nobles.
After following Ulch smiling back and forth, I decided that I wasn't the material, so I lost interest and made a random excuse to slip away.
Besides, Ulch doesn't really need my weak chicken to help.
Although he was inevitably a little nervous as a new nobleman dealing with those old fritters, Pique, the little goblin flying on his shoulder, shared his pressure well.
Knowledgeable, eloquent (regardless of whether what is said is true or not), and despite his small body, Pique, who is indeed a very strong social cow in terms of personality, is an extremely rare goblin clan, and his very existence can easily attract the attention of nobles as a topic.
It's natural to pry open each other's chatterbox at will, and it's natural to have a good conversation, and to put it bluntly, it's enough to top the two of us.
Well, I had nothing to do, and I was sitting in the corner of the hall and pouring myself a drink, but fortunately I was accompanied by Ai Salina, and I was not alone.
"If you can't see the direction of the wind and catch the smiling face," a voice interrupted my thoughts, "you're going to have to drink the northwest wind hungry! I
turned my eyes to see that the stage was slowly rising in the center of the banquet hall, and a clown dressed in colorful clothes was standing in front of the stage, pressing one hand to his chest, bowing in greeting.
His movements are exaggerated, as if there is a crowd of enthusiastic spectators applauding enthusiastically.
And the audience did go crazy, and they all knew what this portended.
I heard a torrential round of applause, I heard a deafening shout, but it was nothing compared to the sound.
I felt the surging magic roaring, I felt the earth elementals that made up the world shook!
The ground shook, like a walking earth dragon raising its head, but the foundation of the whole hall did not change because of this, this is undoubtedly a masterpiece of magic.
As the soft and soothing music sounded in the ears, a boxy platform was miraculously presented in front of everyone, and the curtain slowly opened, and the actors took the stage one after another.
I looked around, and everyone had a smile on their faces, as if they were prepared.
I
turned my head to ask Etharina, but I saw her clenching her fists with determination and taking a step closer to me.
In the lively atmosphere around her, the girl plucked up her courage, she showed her best side in front of my eyes, and her voice was more soft and beautiful than ever.
"The prom has begun... Is it okay to dance with me?".
