After crossing into the wizarding world, he quietly became a god
Chapter 228 The Banquet Begins
?
Isn't it dangerous?
This was Margaret's first thought, but when she thought about Richard going to attend the Dover family's celebration party, she felt that she was overthinking.
In fact, just as Margaret thought, it would be dangerous for Richard to go to the celebration this time.
Toby revealed in the invitation letter that Anthony's master, the legendary assassin Osmond who hired Bennett, had arrived in Dover Province. The news came from a friend of Bennett. Under the coercion and inducement of the Dover family, this friend decisively revealed the news of Osmond.
Moreover, this friend also revealed a piece of news, saying that Anthony might be Osmond's illegitimate son, but Osmond's partner was a legendary wizard. Osmond was under pressure and did not recognize her, but only accepted Anthony as his disciple.
The news that the number of contestants from Dover Province was relatively weak was also told to Anthony by someone arranged by Osmond.
But unfortunately, he met the dark horse Richard.
Now Osmond, Anthony and his companion have gone into hiding, and it is unknown whether they have all arrived in the province of Dover.
Toby's invitation letter was to let Richard leave Dover and serve as bait to lure out Osmond.
Of course, Toby also guaranteed Richard's safety in the invitation letter.
Richard would naturally not let Osmond wander around Dover Province all the time.
Richard still understood the principle that there is only a thief who can steal for a thousand days, but there is no such thing as a thousand-day defense against thieves. If Osmond cannot be completely dealt with this time, Richard's earldom and the Meath Chamber of Commerce will probably be in big trouble, and the people around Richard will not dare to leave Dover.
Even if it was delayed for a while, Osmond might find Richard's parents.
Without telling Margaret, Richard left Dover with Mr. Parker as planned in the invitation letter.
As a quasi-marquis, Parker naturally had legendary guards around him. However, Richard and Parker left Dover without noticing anything unusual.
When the group arrived at the castle where Toby was holding the celebration, there was still no sign of Osmund.
Osmond was more patient than Richard had imagined.
He did not assassinate Richard on the road because he must have felt that with the legendary guard by his side, even if he assassinated Richard, it would be difficult for him to escape unscathed.
Richard frowned as he thought about it.
However, Osmond did not show up. It would be difficult for Richard to find a legendary assassin who wanted to hide. He could only discuss the next plan with Toby first.
Toby also waited in the castle for a long time, and was a little depressed when he saw that Richard and his party were doing well.
This time, it was Toby, who had just been promoted to a legendary warrior, who volunteered to help Richard in dealing with Osmond. Unfortunately, Osmond was more patient than Toby thought.
"It's okay. Let's hold the celebration first, and then we can find a way to solve Osmond's problem after it's over."
After listening to Toby's words, Richard temporarily put Osmond's matter aside. After all, the main purpose of this trip was to congratulate Toby on becoming a legendary warrior.
"Congratulations on your promotion to Legendary Warrior, Toby."
Then Richard also took out his own gift, which was a high-level inscription made by Richard himself, a high-level divine recovery technique that could greatly increase the user's recovery ability.
Moreover, this magic inscription technique is improved according to physical fitness, which is especially suitable for warrior professions like Toby.
Richard himself only used the intermediate level of God's Restoration Technique, and this kind of inscription is not suitable for wizards.
"Richard, I didn't expect you to even know the art of inscription?"
Toby was really surprised. He felt that Richard seemed to know everything at such a young age. He was already a ninth-level wizard and a master of equipment making. Now he showed his ability in inscription.
I really don't know what's going on in Richard's brain.
"Magic inscriptions and magic array patterns are interconnected, so it's easier for me to learn them."
Richard said modestly.
Toby doesn't think so. If it is true as Richard said, then why don't several equipment-making masters in his family know the art of inscription?
However, Toby did not stay with Richard for long. After all, he was the protagonist of today's celebration and the guests all needed his reception.
Even Parker, as an elder of the Dover family, had to help Toby receive guests.
It was not until this time that Richard realized the horror of the Dover family.
There were hundreds of nobles who were qualified to enter the banquet hall, including many marquises and earls.
Of course, not every nobleman is like Richard, who applies for the title based on his own strength. Most of the nobles inherit their titles from their parents.
The Dover family's banquet was also full of grandeur. At the banquet, meats of various monsters and delicious magic materials were directly served on the table, and precious fruit wines were piled up into towers.
This banquet alone would probably cost no less than a million gold coins.
Richard didn't bother to be polite with Toby. Since he didn't like drinking, he took the plate and tried various delicacies in the banquet hall.
All I can say is that the pursuit of delicious food is the same no matter in which world or plane.
There were grilled wind wolf ribs that were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, as well as ice crystal swordfish that could be eaten raw. Anyway, Richard had a feast for his appetite.
As for the magic materials, Richard didn't hesitate to try them all.
Only the Dover family is wealthy enough to eat magic materials as food. They are worthy of being the old money of the Jeff Kingdom.
Of course, only someone as powerful as Richard can safely eat the various delicacies in the banquet, while some low-level professionals can only sigh at the delicious food.
At the same time, Richard was also paying attention to the legendary strongmen who attended the banquet. Except for a few from the Dover family, the other dozen or so legendary strongmen who came to the banquet were all well-known figures in the Dover Province.
Richard did not find any trace of Osmond.
While Richard was enjoying the food, a pair of eyes in the darkness quietly stared at Richard.
A charming noble girl walked up to Richard.
"Mr. Richard, can I meet you?"
Without waiting for Richard to answer, she introduced herself: "My name is Helen."
"you know me?"
Socializing with nobles is also a theme of the banquet. Young male nobles like Richard and Toby are always admired by noble girls. Richard saw Toby openly hugging a girl.
"I also witnessed the demeanor of Lord Richard at the duel competition."
Helen smiled slightly, and Richard felt that she looked somewhat like Margaret.
But she was just talking about something irrelevant. Richard was in a bit of a mess in the duel competition.
However, Richard did not refuse directly. Instead, he maintained his own eating rhythm, walking around in the banquet hall, and constantly observing.
Helen was only a third-level warrior, and it was impossible for her to eat and drink as much as Richard did. Instead, she followed Richard with a glass of wine, actively communicating with Richard, and showed that she was very interested in Richard.
