An Elegant Noble's Guide to Vacations
Chapter 44 The Great Monster Invasion came to an end.
His hands stopped, and he quickly responded with a friendly smile.His coping skills in this area are much better than Jie Er's.Although he still wanted to continue eating, the person who spoke to him was a beautiful woman with a good figure after all, and Yi Raven's interest would not cool down rapidly.
"Just now, the adventurer over there told a very exciting story, a heinous story." Those delicate and charming lips asked softly like a whisper.
"Do you have this kind of story to tell?" "I like this kind of topic the most, tell me about it too?" Irevan looked easy to get close to when he was pretending to be good, but in the blink of an eye he was Surrounded by ladies.
Thrill-hungry ladies are particularly interested in such topics.The adventurer who told the group of girls just now looked at Irevan with provocative eyes.Even though he was Yi Dao's teammate, the red-haired orc in front of him was just a kid younger than himself, so how could he have any stories to tell?
"Who is that?" "Level A." Lieser asked Jieer in a low voice, and the latter gave him a concise answer.Since he was an adventurer who was invited to participate in the meeting, his strength must be beyond doubt, but he may be the type who is easy to get carried away in front of the opposite sex.
"Well, why don't you tell him to ignore the provocation?" Rey also looked in the same direction and said happily.From his personal point of view, it was more interesting for Yileiwen to accept this post.
However, just because he was vaguely aware of Iraven's background, Rey would not let him do whatever he wanted unconditionally.He doesn't look like a fool who would show off his thieves experience openly, but he can still mess up the situation if he gets it wrong.
"He's fine." "It's fine if that's the case." Liesel dismissed Rey's concerns nonchalantly, while Jieer looked at him suspiciously.
"Irevan is a good boy, he will deftly avoid provocations." Irevan shook the empty dinner plate lightly, looked up at the high ceiling, as if meditating.The ceiling is as white and bright as if it is wiped every day, reflecting the countless brilliance reflected by the crystal chandelier so beautifully.
"Well..." Seeing his pretentious movements, the girls were full of anticipation, not knowing how he would make a move.Seeing that he couldn't speak without buying time to think, the male adventurer was convinced that he had won.
In the next second, Yi Raven suddenly looked down at the ladies.He bent down slightly, approaching the woman standing in front of him, with a smile on his lips, revealing his sharp fangs.
"It's a heinous story, I might not be able to tell it." The squinted eyes were stained with charm, and the low and hoarse whisper tightly bound the other party, not allowing the prey to escape.
"The bad things that can be told to others are just pretending to be housewine. I want to continue to eat, so--I won't tell you." The girls cheered for a while, and the male adventurer's face was wrinkled. up.
It's easy to laugh at someone who just slaps his face swollen to make him fat, but the orc's tone is so natural, and the atmosphere of the whole person doesn't allow him to laugh it off.The adventurer lost face and was reluctant to return to his teammate, while his companion quietly punched him in the back to comfort him.
"...The way he 'avoids' is very aggressive." "Irevan is a good boy who knows how to put the lady's favor first." "Uh... that's it." Liesel said Praise the type that encourages others to grow.Ray's friend nodded, but no one knew whether he really accepted what Lieser said.
After that, Liesel and the others enjoyed the banquet leisurely while bathed in the sight of the surroundings.Occasionally, someone would come to chat, and at this time, Rey would come forward to deal with it, and Lieser would only be in charge of saying hello.
After a while, Iraven ran back to join them after roughly eating the dishes he was interested in.Jie Er accidentally took a look at the dining table, and found that the dishes that had been greatly reduced were concentrated in a few specific plates, which made him quite helpless.This guy is picky enough.
"After today's banquet is over, we will hold a dance in the hall next door." As the banquet drew to a close, Rey explained this to them.
The process of this banquet is different from ordinary banquets, presumably it was conceived for adventurers.Most of the adventurers would leave after the dinner party, after all they had nothing to do at the dance party, of course.
On the other hand, the nobleman continued to spend a good time while talking about those warriors who were not seen in daily life just now, while moving to the dance party.
"Your Excellency the Viscount, are you planning to attend the ball too?" "No, I will talk back with you... huh?" Halfway through speaking, Rey looked at a point in the space with a face full of surprise.
Lieser followed his gaze and saw a man walking straight towards here.The man's attire was similar to that of the knights guarding the venue, but more luxurious than ordinary knights.He was slightly older than Lissel and Jieer, and seemed to be the assistant or adjutant of the knight leader.
"It's rare to see you appearing on such an occasion. Where's Your Excellency the Marquis?" The man stopped in front of a group of people, and Rey spoke first.
"The head of the group is busy with his duties. You are the one, and you seem to have a leisurely time." "Now is a rare national founding ceremony, and your father is still just as cautious!" Smiling, the man wrinkled his face angrily.
"(Ah.)" Lieser blinked, and murmured inwardly, "I see."It is said that in this royal capital, there is a well-known marquis family who is responsible for the overall management of the knights who serve the country.Now that he knew Ray, he must be the eldest son of the Marquis family.
He had heard that the gendarmes and the knights had a hard time getting along well, but looking at the current situation, the man in front of him and Rey were simply incompatible.One can tell at a glance that the man's personality is rigid, perhaps inherited from his father.Rey's personality is flexible, flexible in thinking, considering the position, and Jiang is old and spicy, Rey's approach is slightly better.
"It's almost time to get to the point. The person I'm looking for today is not you." The man corrected his posture and knocked on his heels, the sound seemed to reveal a little irritation.It was time for the dance, and people left the banquet hall one by one.
Everyone looked here occasionally, but Lieser didn't respond to their gazes, and looked at Jier standing beside him.Although the expression on his face was cold, there was an air of distaste for trouble, and he glanced at the man who turned to him.Seeing this scene, Lieser was convinced.
"(He is, Jier's...)" It was great to see him today, Liesel smiled.
"Long time no see, Jie Beirut." The next second, that smiling face turned aside with trembling shoulders, and beside him, Irevan's laughing voice resounded throughout the hall.
Volume 51, [-] "Jie Erbeirut...! He looks so vicious, he is called Jieer Beirut! Wahahahaha!"
"Iraven, you laughed too hard, puff... Jieer... puff, so you feel embarrassed because of this?" Jiel Beirut? Is Jieer Beirut so shy? Hahahaha!" "Don't look at him like that, he was extremely embarrassed at that time. Disgust and embarrassment are actually not much different...cough cough.
It was too late, but Liesel still gave a fake cough, not sure if he wanted to hide his smile, or to calm himself down. Irevan almost choked from laughing, and Jieer looked down at the two of them in displeasure. people.
Exactly what he thought.The two of them would definitely laugh when they heard this, without a hint of irony, they just laughed and burst out laughing with all their might.Of course, he hated trouble too, but nothing more than when they laughed about it.To borrow Liesel's words, it's just too embarrassing.
"So, when I asked you to appreciate the paintings earlier, Jie Er also had a disgusted expression on his face!" "He was also very shy at that time." "The world-famous Yi Dao is so cute!" "It's so noisy!" It's already..." Rey saw the right moment to help make up the knife, and Jie Er couldn't help but gasp when he heard it.
"Brother is so shy...! You look like that! You look like that!!" "If you don't shut up, I'll tear off that ponytail of yours." Feeling the oppressive feeling exuding from Jieer's body, Iraven laughed It finally came to an abrupt end, but those shoulders were still shaking with laughter.
Rey's friends didn't want to be affected, and they had already gone to the dance venue one step earlier. Only Rey, Lieser and the others were left here, as well as the man dressed as a knight.After the laughter subsided, the hall returned to silence.The sudden burst of laughter just now made the man freeze in place, and it seemed that his momentum was a little frustrated.
"Your Excellency, Viscount. Excuse me, can I trouble you to introduce me?" I always feel a little embarrassed for him.While thinking about it, Liesel asked Ray this question instead of Jiel who didn't even look at the man.
"Oh, I'm sorry. This is Your Excellency Orrod. He was born in the marquis family that commanded the knights of the whole country. He is the next successor to the title. Now he is the head of the division and assistant to the head of the division." "Hello, please give me your advice. "...Hello, please give me your advice." Liesel smiled at him, and although the other party was surprised, he still responded with a greeting, which was a bit unexpected to him.
This person will definitely inherit the family business in the future, but his attitude is not calm enough. This is Liesel's first impression of him.He was calm enough, but he didn't know whether it was lack of confidence or some anxiety hidden in his heart.It can be seen that he has a sense of responsibility as the eldest son, and this attitude should not be due to his unwillingness to inherit the title.
"Your Excellency Orod, these are adventurers I am proud of, and this time I invite them to the banquet!" "Adventurers...?" Since this is the case, the reason is obvious.Lieser understood clearly and nodded alone.Everything is not as he expected, but there are some unexpected parts.
"Jie Er, so you are old? Seeing that you are so good at taking care of others, I am quite satisfied." "We have hardly any relationship, and it doesn't matter about ranking." "Ah? What? What are you talking about?" Are you talking about old... Pfft...!" Iraven, who couldn't keep up with the topic, asked with a smile.His laughing point is extremely low now, and he has a fit every now and then, and anything he says can hit his laughing hole.
But Jie Er grabbed his snake-like long hair, and he immediately shut his mouth.Jie Er said that he would really do it.
"When did you notice it?" Jieer asked.
"It's only recently that I became convinced, from the time you refused to attend the banquet." Whether it's because of trouble or other reasons, Jie Er rarely refuses the proposal actively.Usually, he always left everything to Liesel to decide, with an attitude of "whatever you want to please".This time Jie Er was unwilling to attend, Lieser only wanted to get a possible reason.
"I do think that you seem to have received a rigorous education." "Ah, that's why you said that elder brother doesn't need to receive etiquette instruction? That's right. Although elder brother looks fierce, he really doesn't feel too rude... ...Huh?" Yi Raven suddenly tilted his head.This man knew Jieer's real name, Lieser said he was old, and had received a rigorous education, these messages pointed out...
"It means that the eldest brother belongs to this guy..." Irevan looked back and forth between Jie Er and Orod with a face full of curiosity.
Hearing Irevan call himself "this guy", Orod was displeased, while Jieer looked away in disgust.The two are not alike at all, the only thing they have in common is their tall stature.
"Jie Beirut was originally my younger brother, but this is also in the past tense." "It looks so vicious, it turned out to be a nobleman... I'm so sorry, I'm sorry, brother, I really won't laugh anymore! My hair is about to fall out! It’s really about to fall out!" Irevan leaned his whole body back to protect his hair.The softness is so good, Lieser looked at this scene with a warm smile.
By the way, Lieser felt that sometimes the two brothers had similarities in Shen Yun, but he felt that Jie Er would be unhappy if he heard it, so he would not say it out loud.
"Captain! Your favorite hair! It's about to fall out!" "Don't worry, Jieer knows how to control power." "It's not that problem!!" Irevan laughed too much, so Lieser only Cheer for him.
He glanced at Jier.Although he was unwilling to participate in the banquet, Jie Er was calm and indifferent when facing this former elder brother.
Judging from his attitude, it was just like a troublesome guy came to find trouble, without any special emotion, it seemed that he really just didn't want them to know his real name and former noble status, so he laughed at him.
"(However, it doesn't mean that this person has nothing to do with him at all.)" The reason why Jie Er stayed at rank B and didn't get promoted any further is indeed because of this.
He really didn't want to accept troublesome etiquette guidance, and he was able to challenge the boss regardless of his rank, and there was nothing wrong with rank B——this was indeed his sincere words.However, as long as he reaches the S rank, the troubles of being pestered by other adventurers will definitely be reduced.For those who have not seen his strength, Jie Er is just a class B mark on the surface, and many people look down on him because of this.
"(Perhaps after he weighed these two things on both ends of the scale, he still thinks this side is more troublesome?)" It seems that Jie Er has completely severed ties with the other party, but that may not be the case with the other party, after all, the current situation is going on. show this.
"...Back to the topic. Let me ask someone to prepare something to drink." While Orod was speaking, a knight who was in charge of security at the venue just now came towards here, holding a tray full of goblets in one hand.Before the other party could act, Yi Raven deftly picked up one of the cups, raised his head and took a sip.
"It's all champagne." Hearing this, Lieser gave up the idea of reaching for the glass, since he couldn't drink anyway.
Irevan laughed too much, as if his mouth was very thirsty, I saw him drink up a glass without politeness, and then reached out to take another glass of wine.O'Rod glanced at him, and immediately turned his gaze back to Jie Er.
"Jie Beirut, why did you come back?" Hearing him spit so angrily, Jie frowned, and finally looked at Orod.The cold eyes seemed to express truthfully that he did not understand what this person was saying.
"The nobleman over there asked me to come here." "You have stayed in this country three years ago. What is your purpose? Are you attending the banquet this time just as an invitation?" "Yes, you don't understand me. What do you mean? Is it strange for adventurers to move their bases?" Orod asked so stubbornly, what exactly is he spying on?Lieser looked at Jier.
The latter answered impatiently, and realized the meaning of Liesel's gaze.Since they already knew, there was no need to hide it, so he simply opened his mouth and briefly described his life experience.
"The Marquis had sex with the woman he sent to accompany him during his expedition, and the woman became pregnant overnight, and the kid she conceived was me. It's a common occurrence." "What? Didn't you just say that that guy was reserved?" "In Under certain circumstances and circumstances, it would be impolite to refuse to receive them, and sometimes there is nothing to do about it." "Yes." Most of the cases are when the party with a higher title entertains a noble with a lower title.Having said that, the marquis family shoulders the great task of commanding the knights and is the key to defending the royal capital.As the head of this family, it is unlikely that he will encounter situations that are difficult to refuse.
But this is not important, and Lieser doesn't care.
"When I was ten years old, my mother died. A stranger came to pick me up. After following me, I found out that it was the Marquis's house in the capital. After four or five years, I left home and became an adventurer to make money, and now I am here. That's it." Jie Er concluded lightly.He has no special thoughts about this life experience. Since he is not dissatisfied with the status quo, the past is nothing more than a simple fact.
By the way, he looks more like his mother, so it's no wonder he doesn't look like Orald.
"Brother, why did you leave the noble family?" "They asked me to choose whether to leave or stay." After adopting Jie Er, why should he leave?
"Who knows. The children born to the girls have won against the eldest son. They think it's not good." "Oh, the face of the nobleman? How long did you practice to beat him?" "About a month, I don't really remember Already." Other than fighting strength, it seems that Orod is better, Lieser tilted his head.
Probably because this family is in charge of commanding the knight order.Considering the bloodlines of the two parties, it is impossible for Jie Er to shake the line of succession to the title, and strength is not the only factor that determines the value of a knight, but it is a lie to say that it has no influence at all.It seems that Jie Er has no intention of becoming a knight. Although the Marquis family's approach is selfish, it does have its reasons.
"(Maybe it's because of this...)" Jie Er said simply, as if these things had nothing to do with him, but Orod stared at him viciously.
Since Jie Er appeared, his life has changed.Jie Er showed his outstanding talent, but the increasingly distant strength gap between the two made him anxious, and he had to bear the eyes of others comparing him.The people around gave up, they said that there was nothing they could do if they encountered a genius of this level.But he was on the contrary, his position as the eldest son of his family did not allow him to give up.
As a result, the matter stuck with him.After being kicked out of the house, Jie Er left indifferently, and the rumors of "one knife Jie Er" began to appear, and he felt that all these things were always chasing after him like a shadow.When he heard that Jie Er finally appeared in the aristocratic society, what did he think?
"Do you want to say that this banquet is really just an invitation? No matter who has asked you to attend, you have never agreed." stopped him.
"Well, I can testify to this point. After all, Jieer was not willing to attend the banquet at first." "...Really." Hearing what Ray said, Orod finally nodded.
He didn't even look at Rey when he answered, which would have been an unforgivable attitude.In terms of title, although the Marquis family has a higher status, Orod has not yet inherited the title.Presumably he no longer has the mind to worry about such things.
"However, I think you still miss the knight." He only wanted to demote Jie Er to a lower position than himself.
"Stop talking about such inexplicable nonsense." "Are you sure you really don't miss it?" Orod asked, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, Jie Er frowned slightly upon seeing this.
He was indeed educated as a knight, and he also thanked the Marquis family for teaching him swordsmanship.However, if he wanted to wield his sword freely according to his own will, his status as a nobleman would only get in the way. When he left the Marquis's house, he did not feel any reluctance.Of course, he never set his sights on becoming a knight.
That being the case, why did Orod say that?The reason is that he is not completely clueless.
"It's ridiculous to accompany an adventurer who is like a nobleman, playing knight's house wine." Orod suddenly looked at Lieser, and looked at him in terms of weight and weight.That look was definitely not pleasant, but Liesel was used to it.
"Don't you really think that an adventurer can replace the monarch who the knights are loyal to?" "You're so wrong, it's ridiculous." At this time, Jieer smiled at Orod for the first time.Contrary to the original cold expression of indifference, there was a mockery in that smile, he raised his jaw, and narrowed his gray pupils like restraint.The beast-like fierce color loomed in those eyes, and Orod's eyes widened.
Jie'er never served Lieser's side, nor did he regard him as his own monarch.But—"I don't know who the monarch you are talking about is. But if you dare to replace this guy, you think highly of your master." "—Damn guy! How dare you insult our king!" Ou Lord cursed loudly.Lieser smiled wryly, no wonder he was angry.
The other party is a knight who swears allegiance to the king. Even if the speaker has no intention of speaking, there is no guarantee that the other party will not think that his glory has been trampled on.Although the conflict arose from Orod's misunderstanding, it's also true that Zel's wording was inappropriate.
"Excuse me for interrupting. It's not easy for you to understand Jie Er's words, right?" Sensing that the knight holding champagne was also angry, Lieser intervened to intervene in the sinister atmosphere between them.Even though the two have severed ties, interrupting a conversation between brothers is a little hesitant.
"He definitely didn't say that to insult your king. It's just that Jieer can't have the kind of loyalty that the knights are aiming for. Can you understand this?" "What did you say..." Orod looked at Lieser, without hiding the astonishment on his face.
Jie Er asserted that no one could match this character, since he met, he has always maintained a quiet and noble demeanor, so noble that his identity as an adventurer can be doubted.But no matter how temperamental he is, this man is still just an adventurer, what right does he have to say that?Orrod glared at him fiercely.
"Swear allegiance to the king and the country, you are the truly noble knights." Lieser's country also has a knight order.Knights swear an oath of justice and loyalty. They are noble and noble, serving the king and defending the country in the admiration of everyone.The loyalty from the heart of a knight is the dazzling brilliance that illuminates the country.
"But Jie Er is different, he cannot become that kind of person." His essence is different.He cannot be the light of a country, but only someone's shadow; his heart will not be entrusted to the absolute king, but shared with those who are close in front of him; he will not implement justice, but only respect the will of the only one.
Lieser served his king in this way, and the two were exactly the same in this respect.It is precisely because he has the same qualities that he can speak with certainty.
"If Jieer can really become a knight, it will definitely not be when he finds the king, but only when he finds the 'only'." "What..." Orod was speechless, and Jieer's eyes widened for a moment .
"There is no distinction between good and bad. Besides, everyone's ideal knight should be you. Jieer will never invade your territory...
It would be great if you can understand this. Jieer was deep in his thoughts and remained silent, but Orod felt unspeakable emotions blowing in his heart. No matter who is right or wrong, even if the other party says he is right, Orod cannot accept it. Absolutely not. Admitting that the adventurer’s words are justified is tantamount to affirming Jie Er. How could he do such a thing?
"What qualifications does an adventurer have to talk about knights!!" He must show that he is better than him, otherwise his shadow will torture him forever.
"It's up to you...!" "Oh, that's it." The moment Orod showed his emotions, Rey interjected as if he had seen the timing. "I'm sorry to interrupt you two." He had been watching with interest and cool composure, apologizing to Liesel, and turning back to Orrod.
"They are my guests, and being too rude will make me very troublesome. If you want to belittle them, I can't bear it." The voice was calm, but serious and deep.Those golden pupils outlined a smile, but there was a stern look in their eyes, and they stared firmly at the other party.
Orrod gritted his teeth.
"(It would be nice if he could remain rational.)" Seeing his figure with his head bowed, Lieser smiled slightly.
Orald was right.There was nothing wrong with what he said, what he did, or what he felt.He just got caught up in uncontrollable urges, messed up his thoughts, misunderstood, but he didn't do anything wrong.
It is certainly abhorrent that hard work loses out to natural talent.Of course a knight respects the king, and of course he is outraged when adventurers smugly talk about the glory of the knight.It is natural to feel anxious when someone who threatens one's status returns to one's side. This is all a natural human reaction.
If it is not a transcendent saint, it is really impossible to tell him not to blame the other party.If he doesn't, he can't maintain his identity, and there's nothing he can do about it.Knowing this, Lieser would never deny what he said.
"—even if the form is different, if you still want to imitate the knight, you can remember it for me." But.
"The value of a knight is determined by the monarch. If the only thing you talk about is this adventurer, then your value is no more than this!" There was the sound of splashing water, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
The knight who had been standing with the silver tray lay motionless on the ground, champagne dripping from his hair.But no one looked at him.
Everyone's eyes were focused on one point - Lieser was holding an empty glass, and the noble smile on his face shocked everyone.
"Unpleasant." With just a few words, Jie Er and Yi Raven's hands moved instantly.
Hearing Lieser's displeasure, their intuitive reflex was to "eliminate the cause".The two gripped the hilts of their swords, and were about to decide who to direct the murderous aura around them, when a chill ran up their backs, and they restrained their hands holding the swords.
"How arrogant it is to use the king I serve to talk about value." His sense of existence is so absolute, quiet but solemn, high-pressured but tolerant, as if he can dominate everything about the other party.
"Loyalty should only exist in your own heart, but you try to distinguish the good from the bad, how shameful." Liesel suddenly let go of the fingers holding the goblet.The glass fell to the ground with a high-pitched sound as it fell to the ground, and the fragments shone brightly in the light of the crystal chandelier.
At the same time, Irevan's shoulders trembled slightly.He had an impression of this feeling, and the instinct of fear asked him to obey, and he tried hard to suppress the voice of instinct.I have obeyed.He swallowed.
"(I didn't... make the captain angry...)" Don't be afraid, he convinced himself.Although I almost launched an attack just now, it was to protect the captain, so he should forgive me, it is impossible not to forgive.All he could do was pray.
A hand reached out and gently stroked Irevan's cheek.Familiar feelings slid across the scales, calling back his thoughts, and only then did he realize that Lieser had unknowingly stood beside him.Seeing those sweet amethyst eyes open in a smile, he relaxed his tense shoulders.
"The most important thing is..." His fingertips caressed his cheek like a compliment, wiping away all the fear in Iraven's heart, leaving only overflowing joy and a sense of superiority.Only when expectations are met, Lieser will give him this kind of ecstasy that can shake his spine, and nothing can replace it.
"I don't want to see anyone belittle Jier with me as an excuse." Orod's eyes widened in astonishment, and he subconsciously took half a step back.Rey took half a step forward, he was so ecstatic that he even forgot to show his face.
That's what I'm after -- that's all Ray has in mind.As expected, his own judgment was not wrong, he wholeheartedly branded Lieser's figure in his eyes at this moment.
"Why..." Orod couldn't look away either, but the meaning was quite different.He opened and closed his mouth, and even he himself didn't understand what he wanted to express in the question that came out of his mouth.
"Because Irevan specifically told me that it was champagne." Liesel correctly understood his question and answered calmly.
It was impossible for Orod to understand. He didn't know that Lieser couldn't drink, and that Irevan was always watching for him to drink.Since Irevan specifically said this, it meant to warn Lieser not to drink.
"You didn't do this because you want Jie Er to drink the poisoned bar? You want to see us drank it in a daze, so as to boast that our companions are better?" The fingers touching the scales on the cheeks passed over him as if to comfort him. lips, and leave.Irevan's eyes followed the fingertips reluctantly, and he stuck out his tongue boastfully at Orod.The red color seemed to be highly poisonous.
"The poison you used is very cheap, it's unpalatable." His tongue was slightly numb.This champagne can stun people in an instant, so it can be seen that it contains quite a strong paralyzing poison.But the orcs of the snake tribe have been associated with poison since birth, so it is impossible for Yi Raven to be effective.
Irevan licked his lips to bring back the feeling of the tip of his tongue, and then glanced at Zel.Seeing him staring at Liesel intently, Irevan couldn't help but envy him—and there was nothing wrong with that.
"I hope you will sever all ties with Jieer peacefully." "What..." "He is already an adventurer. The nobles are obsessed with him, and it will trouble us." "——How could I be persistent? Yujie Beirut!" Although Liser's voice was calm, it was enough to bind the consciousness of all listeners.
"Keep quiet, please." This brief plea is almost an absolute order.
Orrod knew this feeling well.Those words were like the king's holy words conveyed by his father, a will that should be honored and received, and he couldn't help obeying.He felt humiliated and angry about this, but he couldn't say a word, he could only keep his mouth shut.
"Jie'er's value will not change because of my existence. I don't want this to happen." Lieser stared at Orod with a smile on his face, while Jie'er could only stare at the side face in astonishment .
When he recalled the past, Lieser easily reflected on the figure of his mistakes.As soon as he denied it, that person would immediately accept it, but that wouldn't be—"However, if partnering with me hurts Jie Er's reputation, that would be bad. 』He said that the first time he was entangled in the Adventurer's Guild.
『It would be bad if your achievements were doubted because of me. 』He also said the same thing after applying to the Adventurer’s Guild of the Merchant Country to update the map and providing information about the hidden room.
"It's not good to let the well-known Yidao take over the F-rank mission. 』He said the same thing when he was worried about whether to accept the commission of a certain medicine man.
During the arm strength contest, he revealed Jie Er's identity.On the battlefield of the great invasion, he let Jieer attack the stone giants in full view, and later placed him in a position like a lord's guard.
These things were indeed done by Jie Er himself, but who was the reason behind them being regarded as a kind of merit?
"At any time, I never allow anyone to despise you, right?" Lieser looked here, and the pupils of his eyes melted sweetly.
Jie Er understood the meaning of his words, and at the same time, a wave of heat filled his whole body, so strong that it almost shook his sight.He clenched his fists tightly to bear the intense ecstasy.
"Just like you cut off all your worries for me, let me kill all your worries." There was a sound of something being destroyed in his head, which was not unpleasant at all, and he obeyed his desire to accept it all.
Driven by impulse, Jie Er stretched out his hand and grabbed Lieser's hanging wrist.The palm slid from the wrist to the fingertips, and then brought the hand to his lips.His gray pupils looked at Lieser, and there was a pleading in his eyes, hoping that he would not refuse.The hand stopped at a distance from his lips, and then, he lowered his eyes slightly, and let go of his hand.
Illustration p155 "What..." Orod stared blankly at this scene.
There was no one in the hall, and this moment was like a ceremony for a knight to declare his loyalty, but he did not bow his knees or salute.However, Lieser's sincerity from the heart did reach Jieer's heart, and Jieer also made a clear response to Lieser.That figure fit his ideal too well, and he couldn't dismiss it as a trifling matter.
"Okay, please make your own choice." However, Lieser did not allow him to escape.
"You must sever all ties with Jie Er from now on..." Jie Er, Iraven, and Rey all turned to Orod.
There was no anger, no sympathy, no pity, or even joy in their expressions, those eyes just pinned him in place, and Orod felt a stream of sweat flowing down his cheeks.
"...Or do you want me to sever your family line?" For Lieser, it really didn't matter whether he attended the banquet or not.
he knows, has
"Just now, the adventurer over there told a very exciting story, a heinous story." Those delicate and charming lips asked softly like a whisper.
"Do you have this kind of story to tell?" "I like this kind of topic the most, tell me about it too?" Irevan looked easy to get close to when he was pretending to be good, but in the blink of an eye he was Surrounded by ladies.
Thrill-hungry ladies are particularly interested in such topics.The adventurer who told the group of girls just now looked at Irevan with provocative eyes.Even though he was Yi Dao's teammate, the red-haired orc in front of him was just a kid younger than himself, so how could he have any stories to tell?
"Who is that?" "Level A." Lieser asked Jieer in a low voice, and the latter gave him a concise answer.Since he was an adventurer who was invited to participate in the meeting, his strength must be beyond doubt, but he may be the type who is easy to get carried away in front of the opposite sex.
"Well, why don't you tell him to ignore the provocation?" Rey also looked in the same direction and said happily.From his personal point of view, it was more interesting for Yileiwen to accept this post.
However, just because he was vaguely aware of Iraven's background, Rey would not let him do whatever he wanted unconditionally.He doesn't look like a fool who would show off his thieves experience openly, but he can still mess up the situation if he gets it wrong.
"He's fine." "It's fine if that's the case." Liesel dismissed Rey's concerns nonchalantly, while Jieer looked at him suspiciously.
"Irevan is a good boy, he will deftly avoid provocations." Irevan shook the empty dinner plate lightly, looked up at the high ceiling, as if meditating.The ceiling is as white and bright as if it is wiped every day, reflecting the countless brilliance reflected by the crystal chandelier so beautifully.
"Well..." Seeing his pretentious movements, the girls were full of anticipation, not knowing how he would make a move.Seeing that he couldn't speak without buying time to think, the male adventurer was convinced that he had won.
In the next second, Yi Raven suddenly looked down at the ladies.He bent down slightly, approaching the woman standing in front of him, with a smile on his lips, revealing his sharp fangs.
"It's a heinous story, I might not be able to tell it." The squinted eyes were stained with charm, and the low and hoarse whisper tightly bound the other party, not allowing the prey to escape.
"The bad things that can be told to others are just pretending to be housewine. I want to continue to eat, so--I won't tell you." The girls cheered for a while, and the male adventurer's face was wrinkled. up.
It's easy to laugh at someone who just slaps his face swollen to make him fat, but the orc's tone is so natural, and the atmosphere of the whole person doesn't allow him to laugh it off.The adventurer lost face and was reluctant to return to his teammate, while his companion quietly punched him in the back to comfort him.
"...The way he 'avoids' is very aggressive." "Irevan is a good boy who knows how to put the lady's favor first." "Uh... that's it." Liesel said Praise the type that encourages others to grow.Ray's friend nodded, but no one knew whether he really accepted what Lieser said.
After that, Liesel and the others enjoyed the banquet leisurely while bathed in the sight of the surroundings.Occasionally, someone would come to chat, and at this time, Rey would come forward to deal with it, and Lieser would only be in charge of saying hello.
After a while, Iraven ran back to join them after roughly eating the dishes he was interested in.Jie Er accidentally took a look at the dining table, and found that the dishes that had been greatly reduced were concentrated in a few specific plates, which made him quite helpless.This guy is picky enough.
"After today's banquet is over, we will hold a dance in the hall next door." As the banquet drew to a close, Rey explained this to them.
The process of this banquet is different from ordinary banquets, presumably it was conceived for adventurers.Most of the adventurers would leave after the dinner party, after all they had nothing to do at the dance party, of course.
On the other hand, the nobleman continued to spend a good time while talking about those warriors who were not seen in daily life just now, while moving to the dance party.
"Your Excellency the Viscount, are you planning to attend the ball too?" "No, I will talk back with you... huh?" Halfway through speaking, Rey looked at a point in the space with a face full of surprise.
Lieser followed his gaze and saw a man walking straight towards here.The man's attire was similar to that of the knights guarding the venue, but more luxurious than ordinary knights.He was slightly older than Lissel and Jieer, and seemed to be the assistant or adjutant of the knight leader.
"It's rare to see you appearing on such an occasion. Where's Your Excellency the Marquis?" The man stopped in front of a group of people, and Rey spoke first.
"The head of the group is busy with his duties. You are the one, and you seem to have a leisurely time." "Now is a rare national founding ceremony, and your father is still just as cautious!" Smiling, the man wrinkled his face angrily.
"(Ah.)" Lieser blinked, and murmured inwardly, "I see."It is said that in this royal capital, there is a well-known marquis family who is responsible for the overall management of the knights who serve the country.Now that he knew Ray, he must be the eldest son of the Marquis family.
He had heard that the gendarmes and the knights had a hard time getting along well, but looking at the current situation, the man in front of him and Rey were simply incompatible.One can tell at a glance that the man's personality is rigid, perhaps inherited from his father.Rey's personality is flexible, flexible in thinking, considering the position, and Jiang is old and spicy, Rey's approach is slightly better.
"It's almost time to get to the point. The person I'm looking for today is not you." The man corrected his posture and knocked on his heels, the sound seemed to reveal a little irritation.It was time for the dance, and people left the banquet hall one by one.
Everyone looked here occasionally, but Lieser didn't respond to their gazes, and looked at Jier standing beside him.Although the expression on his face was cold, there was an air of distaste for trouble, and he glanced at the man who turned to him.Seeing this scene, Lieser was convinced.
"(He is, Jier's...)" It was great to see him today, Liesel smiled.
"Long time no see, Jie Beirut." The next second, that smiling face turned aside with trembling shoulders, and beside him, Irevan's laughing voice resounded throughout the hall.
Volume 51, [-] "Jie Erbeirut...! He looks so vicious, he is called Jieer Beirut! Wahahahaha!"
"Iraven, you laughed too hard, puff... Jieer... puff, so you feel embarrassed because of this?" Jiel Beirut? Is Jieer Beirut so shy? Hahahaha!" "Don't look at him like that, he was extremely embarrassed at that time. Disgust and embarrassment are actually not much different...cough cough.
It was too late, but Liesel still gave a fake cough, not sure if he wanted to hide his smile, or to calm himself down. Irevan almost choked from laughing, and Jieer looked down at the two of them in displeasure. people.
Exactly what he thought.The two of them would definitely laugh when they heard this, without a hint of irony, they just laughed and burst out laughing with all their might.Of course, he hated trouble too, but nothing more than when they laughed about it.To borrow Liesel's words, it's just too embarrassing.
"So, when I asked you to appreciate the paintings earlier, Jie Er also had a disgusted expression on his face!" "He was also very shy at that time." "The world-famous Yi Dao is so cute!" "It's so noisy!" It's already..." Rey saw the right moment to help make up the knife, and Jie Er couldn't help but gasp when he heard it.
"Brother is so shy...! You look like that! You look like that!!" "If you don't shut up, I'll tear off that ponytail of yours." Feeling the oppressive feeling exuding from Jieer's body, Iraven laughed It finally came to an abrupt end, but those shoulders were still shaking with laughter.
Rey's friends didn't want to be affected, and they had already gone to the dance venue one step earlier. Only Rey, Lieser and the others were left here, as well as the man dressed as a knight.After the laughter subsided, the hall returned to silence.The sudden burst of laughter just now made the man freeze in place, and it seemed that his momentum was a little frustrated.
"Your Excellency, Viscount. Excuse me, can I trouble you to introduce me?" I always feel a little embarrassed for him.While thinking about it, Liesel asked Ray this question instead of Jiel who didn't even look at the man.
"Oh, I'm sorry. This is Your Excellency Orrod. He was born in the marquis family that commanded the knights of the whole country. He is the next successor to the title. Now he is the head of the division and assistant to the head of the division." "Hello, please give me your advice. "...Hello, please give me your advice." Liesel smiled at him, and although the other party was surprised, he still responded with a greeting, which was a bit unexpected to him.
This person will definitely inherit the family business in the future, but his attitude is not calm enough. This is Liesel's first impression of him.He was calm enough, but he didn't know whether it was lack of confidence or some anxiety hidden in his heart.It can be seen that he has a sense of responsibility as the eldest son, and this attitude should not be due to his unwillingness to inherit the title.
"Your Excellency Orod, these are adventurers I am proud of, and this time I invite them to the banquet!" "Adventurers...?" Since this is the case, the reason is obvious.Lieser understood clearly and nodded alone.Everything is not as he expected, but there are some unexpected parts.
"Jie Er, so you are old? Seeing that you are so good at taking care of others, I am quite satisfied." "We have hardly any relationship, and it doesn't matter about ranking." "Ah? What? What are you talking about?" Are you talking about old... Pfft...!" Iraven, who couldn't keep up with the topic, asked with a smile.His laughing point is extremely low now, and he has a fit every now and then, and anything he says can hit his laughing hole.
But Jie Er grabbed his snake-like long hair, and he immediately shut his mouth.Jie Er said that he would really do it.
"When did you notice it?" Jieer asked.
"It's only recently that I became convinced, from the time you refused to attend the banquet." Whether it's because of trouble or other reasons, Jie Er rarely refuses the proposal actively.Usually, he always left everything to Liesel to decide, with an attitude of "whatever you want to please".This time Jie Er was unwilling to attend, Lieser only wanted to get a possible reason.
"I do think that you seem to have received a rigorous education." "Ah, that's why you said that elder brother doesn't need to receive etiquette instruction? That's right. Although elder brother looks fierce, he really doesn't feel too rude... ...Huh?" Yi Raven suddenly tilted his head.This man knew Jieer's real name, Lieser said he was old, and had received a rigorous education, these messages pointed out...
"It means that the eldest brother belongs to this guy..." Irevan looked back and forth between Jie Er and Orod with a face full of curiosity.
Hearing Irevan call himself "this guy", Orod was displeased, while Jieer looked away in disgust.The two are not alike at all, the only thing they have in common is their tall stature.
"Jie Beirut was originally my younger brother, but this is also in the past tense." "It looks so vicious, it turned out to be a nobleman... I'm so sorry, I'm sorry, brother, I really won't laugh anymore! My hair is about to fall out! It’s really about to fall out!" Irevan leaned his whole body back to protect his hair.The softness is so good, Lieser looked at this scene with a warm smile.
By the way, Lieser felt that sometimes the two brothers had similarities in Shen Yun, but he felt that Jie Er would be unhappy if he heard it, so he would not say it out loud.
"Captain! Your favorite hair! It's about to fall out!" "Don't worry, Jieer knows how to control power." "It's not that problem!!" Irevan laughed too much, so Lieser only Cheer for him.
He glanced at Jier.Although he was unwilling to participate in the banquet, Jie Er was calm and indifferent when facing this former elder brother.
Judging from his attitude, it was just like a troublesome guy came to find trouble, without any special emotion, it seemed that he really just didn't want them to know his real name and former noble status, so he laughed at him.
"(However, it doesn't mean that this person has nothing to do with him at all.)" The reason why Jie Er stayed at rank B and didn't get promoted any further is indeed because of this.
He really didn't want to accept troublesome etiquette guidance, and he was able to challenge the boss regardless of his rank, and there was nothing wrong with rank B——this was indeed his sincere words.However, as long as he reaches the S rank, the troubles of being pestered by other adventurers will definitely be reduced.For those who have not seen his strength, Jie Er is just a class B mark on the surface, and many people look down on him because of this.
"(Perhaps after he weighed these two things on both ends of the scale, he still thinks this side is more troublesome?)" It seems that Jie Er has completely severed ties with the other party, but that may not be the case with the other party, after all, the current situation is going on. show this.
"...Back to the topic. Let me ask someone to prepare something to drink." While Orod was speaking, a knight who was in charge of security at the venue just now came towards here, holding a tray full of goblets in one hand.Before the other party could act, Yi Raven deftly picked up one of the cups, raised his head and took a sip.
"It's all champagne." Hearing this, Lieser gave up the idea of reaching for the glass, since he couldn't drink anyway.
Irevan laughed too much, as if his mouth was very thirsty, I saw him drink up a glass without politeness, and then reached out to take another glass of wine.O'Rod glanced at him, and immediately turned his gaze back to Jie Er.
"Jie Beirut, why did you come back?" Hearing him spit so angrily, Jie frowned, and finally looked at Orod.The cold eyes seemed to express truthfully that he did not understand what this person was saying.
"The nobleman over there asked me to come here." "You have stayed in this country three years ago. What is your purpose? Are you attending the banquet this time just as an invitation?" "Yes, you don't understand me. What do you mean? Is it strange for adventurers to move their bases?" Orod asked so stubbornly, what exactly is he spying on?Lieser looked at Jier.
The latter answered impatiently, and realized the meaning of Liesel's gaze.Since they already knew, there was no need to hide it, so he simply opened his mouth and briefly described his life experience.
"The Marquis had sex with the woman he sent to accompany him during his expedition, and the woman became pregnant overnight, and the kid she conceived was me. It's a common occurrence." "What? Didn't you just say that that guy was reserved?" "In Under certain circumstances and circumstances, it would be impolite to refuse to receive them, and sometimes there is nothing to do about it." "Yes." Most of the cases are when the party with a higher title entertains a noble with a lower title.Having said that, the marquis family shoulders the great task of commanding the knights and is the key to defending the royal capital.As the head of this family, it is unlikely that he will encounter situations that are difficult to refuse.
But this is not important, and Lieser doesn't care.
"When I was ten years old, my mother died. A stranger came to pick me up. After following me, I found out that it was the Marquis's house in the capital. After four or five years, I left home and became an adventurer to make money, and now I am here. That's it." Jie Er concluded lightly.He has no special thoughts about this life experience. Since he is not dissatisfied with the status quo, the past is nothing more than a simple fact.
By the way, he looks more like his mother, so it's no wonder he doesn't look like Orald.
"Brother, why did you leave the noble family?" "They asked me to choose whether to leave or stay." After adopting Jie Er, why should he leave?
"Who knows. The children born to the girls have won against the eldest son. They think it's not good." "Oh, the face of the nobleman? How long did you practice to beat him?" "About a month, I don't really remember Already." Other than fighting strength, it seems that Orod is better, Lieser tilted his head.
Probably because this family is in charge of commanding the knight order.Considering the bloodlines of the two parties, it is impossible for Jie Er to shake the line of succession to the title, and strength is not the only factor that determines the value of a knight, but it is a lie to say that it has no influence at all.It seems that Jie Er has no intention of becoming a knight. Although the Marquis family's approach is selfish, it does have its reasons.
"(Maybe it's because of this...)" Jie Er said simply, as if these things had nothing to do with him, but Orod stared at him viciously.
Since Jie Er appeared, his life has changed.Jie Er showed his outstanding talent, but the increasingly distant strength gap between the two made him anxious, and he had to bear the eyes of others comparing him.The people around gave up, they said that there was nothing they could do if they encountered a genius of this level.But he was on the contrary, his position as the eldest son of his family did not allow him to give up.
As a result, the matter stuck with him.After being kicked out of the house, Jie Er left indifferently, and the rumors of "one knife Jie Er" began to appear, and he felt that all these things were always chasing after him like a shadow.When he heard that Jie Er finally appeared in the aristocratic society, what did he think?
"Do you want to say that this banquet is really just an invitation? No matter who has asked you to attend, you have never agreed." stopped him.
"Well, I can testify to this point. After all, Jieer was not willing to attend the banquet at first." "...Really." Hearing what Ray said, Orod finally nodded.
He didn't even look at Rey when he answered, which would have been an unforgivable attitude.In terms of title, although the Marquis family has a higher status, Orod has not yet inherited the title.Presumably he no longer has the mind to worry about such things.
"However, I think you still miss the knight." He only wanted to demote Jie Er to a lower position than himself.
"Stop talking about such inexplicable nonsense." "Are you sure you really don't miss it?" Orod asked, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, Jie Er frowned slightly upon seeing this.
He was indeed educated as a knight, and he also thanked the Marquis family for teaching him swordsmanship.However, if he wanted to wield his sword freely according to his own will, his status as a nobleman would only get in the way. When he left the Marquis's house, he did not feel any reluctance.Of course, he never set his sights on becoming a knight.
That being the case, why did Orod say that?The reason is that he is not completely clueless.
"It's ridiculous to accompany an adventurer who is like a nobleman, playing knight's house wine." Orod suddenly looked at Lieser, and looked at him in terms of weight and weight.That look was definitely not pleasant, but Liesel was used to it.
"Don't you really think that an adventurer can replace the monarch who the knights are loyal to?" "You're so wrong, it's ridiculous." At this time, Jieer smiled at Orod for the first time.Contrary to the original cold expression of indifference, there was a mockery in that smile, he raised his jaw, and narrowed his gray pupils like restraint.The beast-like fierce color loomed in those eyes, and Orod's eyes widened.
Jie'er never served Lieser's side, nor did he regard him as his own monarch.But—"I don't know who the monarch you are talking about is. But if you dare to replace this guy, you think highly of your master." "—Damn guy! How dare you insult our king!" Ou Lord cursed loudly.Lieser smiled wryly, no wonder he was angry.
The other party is a knight who swears allegiance to the king. Even if the speaker has no intention of speaking, there is no guarantee that the other party will not think that his glory has been trampled on.Although the conflict arose from Orod's misunderstanding, it's also true that Zel's wording was inappropriate.
"Excuse me for interrupting. It's not easy for you to understand Jie Er's words, right?" Sensing that the knight holding champagne was also angry, Lieser intervened to intervene in the sinister atmosphere between them.Even though the two have severed ties, interrupting a conversation between brothers is a little hesitant.
"He definitely didn't say that to insult your king. It's just that Jieer can't have the kind of loyalty that the knights are aiming for. Can you understand this?" "What did you say..." Orod looked at Lieser, without hiding the astonishment on his face.
Jie Er asserted that no one could match this character, since he met, he has always maintained a quiet and noble demeanor, so noble that his identity as an adventurer can be doubted.But no matter how temperamental he is, this man is still just an adventurer, what right does he have to say that?Orrod glared at him fiercely.
"Swear allegiance to the king and the country, you are the truly noble knights." Lieser's country also has a knight order.Knights swear an oath of justice and loyalty. They are noble and noble, serving the king and defending the country in the admiration of everyone.The loyalty from the heart of a knight is the dazzling brilliance that illuminates the country.
"But Jie Er is different, he cannot become that kind of person." His essence is different.He cannot be the light of a country, but only someone's shadow; his heart will not be entrusted to the absolute king, but shared with those who are close in front of him; he will not implement justice, but only respect the will of the only one.
Lieser served his king in this way, and the two were exactly the same in this respect.It is precisely because he has the same qualities that he can speak with certainty.
"If Jieer can really become a knight, it will definitely not be when he finds the king, but only when he finds the 'only'." "What..." Orod was speechless, and Jieer's eyes widened for a moment .
"There is no distinction between good and bad. Besides, everyone's ideal knight should be you. Jieer will never invade your territory...
It would be great if you can understand this. Jieer was deep in his thoughts and remained silent, but Orod felt unspeakable emotions blowing in his heart. No matter who is right or wrong, even if the other party says he is right, Orod cannot accept it. Absolutely not. Admitting that the adventurer’s words are justified is tantamount to affirming Jie Er. How could he do such a thing?
"What qualifications does an adventurer have to talk about knights!!" He must show that he is better than him, otherwise his shadow will torture him forever.
"It's up to you...!" "Oh, that's it." The moment Orod showed his emotions, Rey interjected as if he had seen the timing. "I'm sorry to interrupt you two." He had been watching with interest and cool composure, apologizing to Liesel, and turning back to Orrod.
"They are my guests, and being too rude will make me very troublesome. If you want to belittle them, I can't bear it." The voice was calm, but serious and deep.Those golden pupils outlined a smile, but there was a stern look in their eyes, and they stared firmly at the other party.
Orrod gritted his teeth.
"(It would be nice if he could remain rational.)" Seeing his figure with his head bowed, Lieser smiled slightly.
Orald was right.There was nothing wrong with what he said, what he did, or what he felt.He just got caught up in uncontrollable urges, messed up his thoughts, misunderstood, but he didn't do anything wrong.
It is certainly abhorrent that hard work loses out to natural talent.Of course a knight respects the king, and of course he is outraged when adventurers smugly talk about the glory of the knight.It is natural to feel anxious when someone who threatens one's status returns to one's side. This is all a natural human reaction.
If it is not a transcendent saint, it is really impossible to tell him not to blame the other party.If he doesn't, he can't maintain his identity, and there's nothing he can do about it.Knowing this, Lieser would never deny what he said.
"—even if the form is different, if you still want to imitate the knight, you can remember it for me." But.
"The value of a knight is determined by the monarch. If the only thing you talk about is this adventurer, then your value is no more than this!" There was the sound of splashing water, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.
The knight who had been standing with the silver tray lay motionless on the ground, champagne dripping from his hair.But no one looked at him.
Everyone's eyes were focused on one point - Lieser was holding an empty glass, and the noble smile on his face shocked everyone.
"Unpleasant." With just a few words, Jie Er and Yi Raven's hands moved instantly.
Hearing Lieser's displeasure, their intuitive reflex was to "eliminate the cause".The two gripped the hilts of their swords, and were about to decide who to direct the murderous aura around them, when a chill ran up their backs, and they restrained their hands holding the swords.
"How arrogant it is to use the king I serve to talk about value." His sense of existence is so absolute, quiet but solemn, high-pressured but tolerant, as if he can dominate everything about the other party.
"Loyalty should only exist in your own heart, but you try to distinguish the good from the bad, how shameful." Liesel suddenly let go of the fingers holding the goblet.The glass fell to the ground with a high-pitched sound as it fell to the ground, and the fragments shone brightly in the light of the crystal chandelier.
At the same time, Irevan's shoulders trembled slightly.He had an impression of this feeling, and the instinct of fear asked him to obey, and he tried hard to suppress the voice of instinct.I have obeyed.He swallowed.
"(I didn't... make the captain angry...)" Don't be afraid, he convinced himself.Although I almost launched an attack just now, it was to protect the captain, so he should forgive me, it is impossible not to forgive.All he could do was pray.
A hand reached out and gently stroked Irevan's cheek.Familiar feelings slid across the scales, calling back his thoughts, and only then did he realize that Lieser had unknowingly stood beside him.Seeing those sweet amethyst eyes open in a smile, he relaxed his tense shoulders.
"The most important thing is..." His fingertips caressed his cheek like a compliment, wiping away all the fear in Iraven's heart, leaving only overflowing joy and a sense of superiority.Only when expectations are met, Lieser will give him this kind of ecstasy that can shake his spine, and nothing can replace it.
"I don't want to see anyone belittle Jier with me as an excuse." Orod's eyes widened in astonishment, and he subconsciously took half a step back.Rey took half a step forward, he was so ecstatic that he even forgot to show his face.
That's what I'm after -- that's all Ray has in mind.As expected, his own judgment was not wrong, he wholeheartedly branded Lieser's figure in his eyes at this moment.
"Why..." Orod couldn't look away either, but the meaning was quite different.He opened and closed his mouth, and even he himself didn't understand what he wanted to express in the question that came out of his mouth.
"Because Irevan specifically told me that it was champagne." Liesel correctly understood his question and answered calmly.
It was impossible for Orod to understand. He didn't know that Lieser couldn't drink, and that Irevan was always watching for him to drink.Since Irevan specifically said this, it meant to warn Lieser not to drink.
"You didn't do this because you want Jie Er to drink the poisoned bar? You want to see us drank it in a daze, so as to boast that our companions are better?" The fingers touching the scales on the cheeks passed over him as if to comfort him. lips, and leave.Irevan's eyes followed the fingertips reluctantly, and he stuck out his tongue boastfully at Orod.The red color seemed to be highly poisonous.
"The poison you used is very cheap, it's unpalatable." His tongue was slightly numb.This champagne can stun people in an instant, so it can be seen that it contains quite a strong paralyzing poison.But the orcs of the snake tribe have been associated with poison since birth, so it is impossible for Yi Raven to be effective.
Irevan licked his lips to bring back the feeling of the tip of his tongue, and then glanced at Zel.Seeing him staring at Liesel intently, Irevan couldn't help but envy him—and there was nothing wrong with that.
"I hope you will sever all ties with Jieer peacefully." "What..." "He is already an adventurer. The nobles are obsessed with him, and it will trouble us." "——How could I be persistent? Yujie Beirut!" Although Liser's voice was calm, it was enough to bind the consciousness of all listeners.
"Keep quiet, please." This brief plea is almost an absolute order.
Orrod knew this feeling well.Those words were like the king's holy words conveyed by his father, a will that should be honored and received, and he couldn't help obeying.He felt humiliated and angry about this, but he couldn't say a word, he could only keep his mouth shut.
"Jie'er's value will not change because of my existence. I don't want this to happen." Lieser stared at Orod with a smile on his face, while Jie'er could only stare at the side face in astonishment .
When he recalled the past, Lieser easily reflected on the figure of his mistakes.As soon as he denied it, that person would immediately accept it, but that wouldn't be—"However, if partnering with me hurts Jie Er's reputation, that would be bad. 』He said that the first time he was entangled in the Adventurer's Guild.
『It would be bad if your achievements were doubted because of me. 』He also said the same thing after applying to the Adventurer’s Guild of the Merchant Country to update the map and providing information about the hidden room.
"It's not good to let the well-known Yidao take over the F-rank mission. 』He said the same thing when he was worried about whether to accept the commission of a certain medicine man.
During the arm strength contest, he revealed Jie Er's identity.On the battlefield of the great invasion, he let Jieer attack the stone giants in full view, and later placed him in a position like a lord's guard.
These things were indeed done by Jie Er himself, but who was the reason behind them being regarded as a kind of merit?
"At any time, I never allow anyone to despise you, right?" Lieser looked here, and the pupils of his eyes melted sweetly.
Jie Er understood the meaning of his words, and at the same time, a wave of heat filled his whole body, so strong that it almost shook his sight.He clenched his fists tightly to bear the intense ecstasy.
"Just like you cut off all your worries for me, let me kill all your worries." There was a sound of something being destroyed in his head, which was not unpleasant at all, and he obeyed his desire to accept it all.
Driven by impulse, Jie Er stretched out his hand and grabbed Lieser's hanging wrist.The palm slid from the wrist to the fingertips, and then brought the hand to his lips.His gray pupils looked at Lieser, and there was a pleading in his eyes, hoping that he would not refuse.The hand stopped at a distance from his lips, and then, he lowered his eyes slightly, and let go of his hand.
Illustration p155 "What..." Orod stared blankly at this scene.
There was no one in the hall, and this moment was like a ceremony for a knight to declare his loyalty, but he did not bow his knees or salute.However, Lieser's sincerity from the heart did reach Jieer's heart, and Jieer also made a clear response to Lieser.That figure fit his ideal too well, and he couldn't dismiss it as a trifling matter.
"Okay, please make your own choice." However, Lieser did not allow him to escape.
"You must sever all ties with Jie Er from now on..." Jie Er, Iraven, and Rey all turned to Orod.
There was no anger, no sympathy, no pity, or even joy in their expressions, those eyes just pinned him in place, and Orod felt a stream of sweat flowing down his cheeks.
"...Or do you want me to sever your family line?" For Lieser, it really didn't matter whether he attended the banquet or not.
