MTL - Medieval Empire Soldier-Chapter 153 · Banquet at White Wolf Castle (Part 1)

   "Well, tomorrow is my coming-of-age ceremony, Mr. Lailun, you won't wear this dress to the banquet." The elector daughter covered her lips and smirked, her smart eyes carefully examining Laylen's outfit.

  Lyren was dressed in strong clothes, a linen shirt that had not faded and dark brown trousers, a thick belt around his waist and a scabbard. If it weren't for the baron badge on his chest, he looked naked as a mercenary.

"Uh, I still have some clothes for the banquet, please rest assured Miss Shirina, but the places I go in and out in recent days don't pay attention to etiquette and clothing, which makes you laugh." Lailun looked helpless, " I don't like to wear clothes that are tight at the waist and can't move freely like I do now."

"But if you want to attend the banquet, you must wear decent and appropriate clothes." Sylina showed a reserved smile, and she continued to persuade, "The nobles are very old-fashioned and rotten in their thinking, and sometimes they even have a problem with the collar of their shirt. I have been arguing about the irises, and I have roughly read the invitations issued at the banquet, and the invitations are all the great nobles of various provinces, they are very picky, and they can identify the faction from the clothing.

   "Thank you for the reminder, my lady." Lallen replied: "I will try to dress up as much as possible, it may not be very good, but it will definitely meet the requirements of the banquet."

   "Mr. Lallen, do you know how many irises are on the top of my father's helmet?" The Elector's daughter changed the subject, looking at Lallen waiting for an answer.

As the Elector of Midden, Boris Toddbringer's armor must be the most expensive and sophisticated, and the exaggerated decoration also gives people a deterrent effect. Lallen has seen it a few times on the battlefield, although it is far away There was some distance, but he could see it clearly. Layen thought for a while and replied: "If I remember correctly, the iris helmet of His Excellency the Elector is decorated with two clusters of irises, dark blue and pure white, and a symbol of Iron Castle decoration in Middenheim."

"Actually, there are three clusters of irises, blue, white, and pink." The Elector's daughter pursed her lips and smiled secretly, and then she lowered her voice, as if she was telling an unspeakable secret: "Father, he was in Midden when he was young. The entire northern part of the empire is notoriously suave. Ever since he inherited the position of the elector, he has been reluctant to take off the cluster of pink irises. He will always stick the cluster of irises on the castle before the expedition. under decoration."

   "Few people know this secret, so Mr. Lallen, you must keep it for me."

  Lyren nodded and said, "Don't worry, beautiful lady."

Sylina held Laylen's arm, her body exuded a pleasant fragrance, the Elector's daughter raised her head to look at Laylen, and smiled cleverly: "Speaking of the misunderstanding just now, you haven't recovered. Apologize to me, Baron Lallen, don't you plan to apologize more?"

   "I'm sorry, Miss Shirena." Lailun had a handsome face with a sincere and obscure expression, "It's hard to imagine meeting you at night."

   "Another question, who is the knight just now?" asked the Elector's daughter.

"Adrian Gentry, son of Hans Gentry and former Captain of the Rick Guards, whose father sacrificed himself in the Battle of Sessenmonde, saved my life," Leron replied. .

   "Brave and loyal knight, Gentile's Rick Guard Company is recognized as strong and powerful, and His Excellency Hans Gentile is worthy of his reputation and honor." Sylina expressed her regret and recognition.

While the two were walking and chatting together, they had walked from the castle garden to the main building. Several personal maids were waiting at the main entrance, so Sylina smiled charmingly, and then released Laren's arms: "Then, I'll go back to rest. Now, good night, Mr. Lallen, it was an unforgettable evening, and it was a pleasure chatting with you."

   "Good night, Miss Shirena."

"Oh, yes, Mr. Laren." Just after a few steps, Sylina turned around, her smile was slyly: "The secret of tonight's chat, don't tell anyone, meeting in private will always make My father is unhappy, and I hope you can understand your elector."

   "No problem." Lallen nodded politely.

   "Goodbye."

"goodbye."

   Soon, Laylen and Adrian left White Wolf Castle and returned to their residence.

   The next day, a grand banquet opened in Middenheim's White Wolf Castle.

More than 400 people were invited to attend the grand banquet in White Wolf Castle. They were either the great nobles of the empire, or the famous merchants, as well as the well-known figures, great artists, musicians, The masters of painting, etc., the bards also wrote the most beautiful and tactful songs for this purpose.

The venue for the banquet is the lavish Elector Hall and the huge open-air courtyard in the castle. The stone road leading to the pavilion is decorated with lights and covered with red carpets. The pool in the courtyard and the pavilion built of white rocks. On this day, the people who can enter the Elector's Castle are all dressed in noble costumes. The Teutonic guards stationed in the castle stand above the main entrance and the inner fortress. The praises of the emperors are continuous, and they also show their own beautiful stories.

Bright magic lamps and hundreds of candles illuminated the entire Elector Castle. From other parts of Middenheim, you can also notice the brightness here. Most of the invited nobles brought their female relatives. , in pairs, holding wine glasses in one hand, they gathered in groups of three or five. The grand banquet gave them a very good reason to exchange many things. They are not artists and paintings who wander around and display their works. The works of the masters have been criticized, and many artists have taken the opportunity to sell their proud works to see if there are nobles or big businessmen willing to pay a lot of money for art, and many white wolf knights and cheetah knights have also been sold. Invited to participate, they sat around the table eating and drinking, and there were hearty laughter from the knights everywhere.

The north does not pay much attention to art. Among them, there are the largest number of artists from the Wessen and Rik regions. This is closely related to the civilization and wealth of the empire. There are wars everywhere in the north, and there is very little comfortable time to enjoy. Therefore, the nobles Mostly just a little appreciation of the works for display.

Among the bards, there is a special bard with the most distinctive characteristics of Midden. The ballads they compose are called "Wolf Songs". According to rumors, the white wolf **** of war Yuric once wrote a song himself. The wolf song, to this day, the song of the wolf **** has been forever sealed in the Great Temple of Eureka above the floating earth Karag. recite.

   Today's Lallen, wearing a dark blue baron class banquet dress, wears a third-class iron cross and a baron badge on his chest to show his identity and status.

Laylen and Lord Draven walked along, the street torches illuminating the way of the Elector's Castle, and four Teutonic guards in fine-worked mithril plate guarded the main gate, and a company of Uric's. The swordsmen of the Sword Legion, all of them obeyed the orders of the Elector of the White Wolf, Boris Todbringer, and swore that they would finally lead the Elector in Midden. The three-storey castle gate opened to the inside. There were musical instruments and laughter.

"There are a lot of people invited. To pass through the main entrance, you must show the invitation of the Elector." Near the main entrance, Earl Delavan said to Lallen, and at the same time, he took out two gilded invitations. and handed one of them to Lallen.

"The strength of the Teutonic guards is far stronger than we imagined. It is no exaggeration to say that the entire swordsmen company of Uric's Sword is not enough for the four Teutonic guards in front of the main gate." Draven The Count said with a smile, "For this banquet, the Elector has transferred thirty Teutonic guards. We can rest assured about safety issues."

   At this moment, the halberds were intertwined, and several people dressed as small nobles in front of Laren and his party were stopped by the swordsman.

"Stop! Show your invitations!" They transported a wagon with ordinary decoration, covered with a curtain, and the guard asked sharply: "What is inside? In the name of the elector, I order you Open the curtain!"

"Urik above, here is the late-delivery wine, the Elector's wife, Lady Annika Elise ordered us to bring these rare wines from the cellars of Kronborg, she is for It was specially arranged for a banquet." A lean, aquiline-nosed noble stepped forward, his expression was very calm, and he said to the swordsman neither humble nor arrogant.

   "Trust me, you absolutely don't want to destroy the Elector's rare brew." He took out an ochre red invitation and handed it over: "This is a commandment issued by Mrs. Annika Elise herself."

After the guard took over the precept, he checked it over and over again. Whether it was a signature or a wolf head badge printed on it, it was undoubtedly genuine and there was no problem. Since it was true, there was no need to risk the anger of the Elector's wife. Risk, the halberd separated, and the guard signaled: "Enter."

  The carriage covered with a black curtain slowly drove into the White Wolf Castle, and Lailun noticed that the ruts of the carriage left two lines of marks on the red carpet.

   showed the invitation to the castle guards, so Lallen, Earl Draven and several entourages entered the banquet scene together.

"Oh! Welcome, Count Leif-Anlosian, and Baron Lelan-Wald, the arrival of the two has added more luster to this banquet!" They entered the courtyard, and someone immediately greeted them. The castle Butler Andal Meier smiled attentively: "We meet again, Your Excellency Lallen."

   "Hello, Mr. Andal, is the banquet going well tonight?"

"Of course, even beyond our imagination, all the distinguished guests invited by the elector are here, so I will introduce the process of the next banquet to the two of you, so that the two of you can enjoy the joy of this banquet. ." Andal Meier raised a hand, with a smile on his face, and introduced: "First of all, Lord Elector will lead you to pray to Uric and Tar. As we all know, the **** of nature. It is Uric's brother, and the grand banquet must pray to the name of Tal, let them bless us with peace and all the best in the next four seasons, and pray for the wolf **** to bless our Elector's daughter, Miss Shirena."

"Then the bards and musicians will sing the ballad, and after that, the coming-of-age gifts from the three major sects in Middenheim to Miss Sylina, as well as gifts from invited guests, according to the roster. Record, among them is Your Excellency Lailun, I think you must have prepared it in advance?"

   "A gift for Miss Shirena? It seems that no one told me in advance?" Lailun glanced at Earl Draven, who also shook his head blankly, "This is very interesting."

"Of course, of course, if things happen in a hurry, the notification may not be in place. This is an item specially added by the elector before the banquet. Hahaha!" The castle steward looked a little embarrassed, his smile remained unchanged: "I see How about this, Your Excellency Lailun, I will arrange for someone to choose a few gifts for you right away, and you will choose one of them to give to the eldest lady, do you think this is okay?"

   "That's the only way to do it." Lyron nodded in agreement.

"By the way, in addition to this, the Elector's wizard courtier will bring the guests a wonderful fireworks and magic show, as well as many invited acrobatics shows, and there are many entertaining mini-games in the courtyard. For everyone's participation, I won't go into details here." The castle steward made a final summary, and then he moved out of the way: "Please!"

The entertainment of the nobles is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and entertainment activities are extremely lacking, so various banquets are often held in the empire, which is not limited to the love between men and women, nobles can enjoy food feasts, various products. There are many drinking parties and tea tasting parties.

Amidst the laughing crowd, Lallen also noticed that in the courtyard, there were several wood elves in gorgeous clothes and large elf robes. Conversation in Elvish.

  Lyren glanced at him, and then asked Earl Draven beside him, "Mr. Earl, did the Elector also invite the Wood Elves?"

"Ah, two of them wearing emerald green feather crowns are Boris' courtiers, one is a life mage, one is a long-established warrior, and the others are sent by Lauren Loren Forest to Midden. Ambassador, the embassy of the wood elves is not far from the White Wolf Castle." Earl Leif pointed in a direction, "At least their attitude towards humans is much better than that of high elves. If you have a chance, you can visit Marienburg. high elf embassy, ​​and you will have a profound understanding of what it means to be defiant."

At this moment, there were bursts of cheers and exclamations from the castle courtyard. An imperial wizard standing in the castle tower and wearing a sky blue mage robe skillfully used magic to construct a light group in mid-air. There was the illusion of a white wolf, and then, the light group burst open, sprinkled countless light spots from the sky, and fell into the courtyard. The exclamations of the male nobles and the screams of the female nobles were endless.

   "Wonderful! Wonderful!" Earl Delavan, like several nobles around him who came to chat, applauded with both hands, expressing his congratulations.

Lailun didn't have much interest in this kind of trick, he drank the red wine in his glass, and when he was bored, he saw a familiar figure, Eureka the witch hunter, and her eyes just turned towards Layen. Len looked over.

Eureka is wearing a long black evening dress, which perfectly outlines her slender figure. The tulle hanging from the top of Sinan's hat half hides her face, and the swan-like slender neck is matched with a sterling silver necklace. His forearm was exposed like a cream, his skin was as light as snow, cold and mature.

"Mr. Laren, you seem to lack a temporary companion for this banquet." The witch hunter's crimson eyes stared at Laren, who was amazed by Eureka's beauty, until she turned towards Laren. Reaching out his hand, he came back to his senses: "Miss Eureka, I didn't expect... to see you here."

Crimson eyes stared at Laren's expression, and then, Eureka took Laren's arm, pressed it further, and whispered softly: "At tonight's banquet, there is a heretic who is being followed and investigated by witch hunters, I hope We are happy to work together.”

"It's right here?!" Laren looked surprised. He looked around and chuckled, "Miss Eureka, you don't want to set fire to the whole castle, do you? There are so many innocents here, I think The guy targeted by the witch hunter must be hiding very deeply."

   "If I could, I would burn the whole castle, even if I burn a Middenheim, I don't care." Eureka rolled her eyes at Leren, "Tonight, you are my companion."

   "Okay, I see, so I'm a witch hunter now too?"

   Hearing this, Eureka showed a cold smile, and she said tactfully, "You can understand that."

   "At your command, sir, let's get started,"

   Ask for tickets and subscriptions!
