Chapter 66

Duke was the focus of the banquet, there was no doubt about it, even though Medivh's disciple Khadgar officially became an earth mage, it didn't change everyone's topic.

Because Duke was promoted to Earth Mage at the age of fourteen, and now he has faintly touched the bottleneck of Sky Mage. Despite Khadgar's hard work, even though he has deeper magical knowledge than Duke, he was only promoted to Earth Mage at the age of 15... If there is no Duke in front of him, he will be the focus of the entire kingdom's high-level, Unfortunately, there is Duke.

No matter how sharp a genius is, he is overshadowed by Duke.

Seeing Medivh's face, the nobles said congratulations, but Khadgar could clearly hear the nobles' 'whispered' comments.

"What, compared to a real genius, Khadgar is only at this level."

"Keep your voice down. After all, Duke is comparable to Medivh's ninth-class aptitude."

"Didn't you see that Medivh also asked to accept Duke as a disciple? Khadgar should be lucky. If Duke also became Medivh's disciple, would he still have the resources he has now?"

After all, Khadgar is still just a 15-year-old half-grown child. Even if he has a complicated past, he still can't be as mature and stable as an adult. There is an unconcealable loss on his face with a strong smile.

He suddenly longed for Medivh's comfort. Only Medivh, the strongest mage on the earth, the most wise and tolerant senior could give him spiritual comfort.

He turned his head, as if he was suddenly struck by thunder. what did he see A cold master, if it is majestic, then forget it, and Medivh, who has not seen him for several months, has a joke on his face as if it has nothing to do with him.

What's wrong with the teacher! ?

Khadgar froze.

Before the banquet officially enters the ball stage, there is another link, that is, the nobles or invited guests present gifts to the king.

Generally speaking, King Lane is very good at being a man.

After all, this is a link where the poor ask for a reward, and the rich ask for pretense.

Giving a gift is not a simple gift, for example, if a guy with no money presents a poem of praise for the queen, the little prince and the little princess, he can also get a reward from the king.

Duke watched dumbfoundedly as a little noble said something to the king, such as "The beautiful queen is like a star in the sky, blinking like a frog, blinking..."

I don't know if there was a problem with the translation of the system elves, or if it was a sloppy poem. Anyway, Ryan sent this guy away amidst the laughter of the nobles with a few gold coins.

Uh, it should be the latter.

It seems that performing arts are still divided into different categories.

Duke also presented a gift, and the ceremony officer had seen Duke's gift before the banquet, and decisively announced that Duke's gift was the finale. It's a pity that Medivh also said that he would offer a gift, and Duke's gift was ranked second to last.

The ceremonial officer first presented a gold-carved camphorwood box and a tray covered with red velvet cloth to Ryan. The strong camphor aroma of the camphor wood was cool and slightly spicy, which had already made Ryan and the queen feel refreshed. I was shocked.

"This is..." Ryan asked with a smile.

Duke spread his hand to signal for the ceremony officer to open it, and the nobles suddenly let out a low-pitched commotion of envy.

It was snow-white pearl cream.

It has the effects of whitening, removing acne and freckles. This is a new gadget that has just emerged in the past week. Every noble lady has used it and said it is good. Under the manipulation of Duke and Jones, a pair of profiteers, this new gadget is about 20 gold coins for a small round box as big as the palm of your hand.

Now it's all right, Duke sent several catties to the queen as soon as he gave it away.

The queen could clearly hear the screams of the noble girls.

The queen's eyes had long since turned into crescent moons: "Oh, this cost Sir Marcus a lot."

"For the queen's beauty, everything is worth it." Duke bowed deeply.

What a waste! I don't know if Duke has spent a few copper coins. Maybe it's because of the integrity of the relationship that has not been answered, and Duke also feels that he is a lot of profiteers.

Pearl cream, even though it claims to be made from the most expensive pearl powder. But he had been to Sea X Island before time travel, and Duke, who had been taught badly by profiteers, would use so many pearls to grind powder?

Don't even think about it.

The composition of pearls is the same as that of the pearl film on the clam shell. The so-called pearl powder is scraped from the clam shell. In Hai X Island, those who really know what to buy will not buy pearl powder, because the pearl powder on the market can buy as much as a washbasin for 15 yuan from fishermen who raise artificial pearls.

In the eyes of King Storm, Queen, and all the nobles, a box of Pearl Cream is priceless... the most expensive box is actually that box!

Of course, Duke will not tell this secret.

As for what was presented to the king, it was a goose egg-sized, spherical pearl. The round shape, flawless, warm and delicate color, gave off a soft iridescent pearl under the bright candlelight. It is this natural gentle beauty, as well as this unpredictable mysterious charm and elegant temperament, which reminds people of the ultimate femininity of women.

Seeing this big pearl, every nobleman showed yearning and envy on his face.

Such a beautiful pearl, even if it is brought to the king of the Seven Kingdoms, it will be more face-saving!

Ryan was also stunned, with excitement on his face—Duke really has a heart, such a gorgeous pearl is enough to be inlaid on the crown.

"Ai Qing, you have spent money."

"I just caught it by chance. Only Your Majesty is worthy of such a gorgeous pearl." Duke bowed deeply and turned his face to the floor.

It's not that Duke is so polite, but that he is afraid that he won't be able to recognize and laugh. Before time travel, who didn't know that the bigger the pearl, the more beautiful it is, the more fake it is.

Pearls are formed when mussels open their shells and inhale foreign matter such as sand grains, which stimulate the shells to secrete nacre and wrap them up.

Isn't it easy to make pearls round?

Get a bigger glass bead inside, and then the rest of the clamshell will be done by itself.

Now, Duke has several giant clams over two meters long thrown in the waters of the West Wilderness. Duke has asked Vala to punch a hole in the shell to lock the giant clam. As long as Duke wants, he can make pearls the size of a human head.

In other words, Duke is so good at being a man, purely because Duke wants to wear small shoes with Medivh controlled by Sargeras. Duke has already vaguely guessed what Medivh will contribute next. He just wanted to lift the hearts of Ryan and Anduin first, and when Medivh slammed their hearts down, they would be deeper and more painful.

After being appreciated by the king, Duke withdrew after Ryan promised to give Duke more convenience.

The focus of the audience fell on Medivh, who had been gazing at the audience with a half smile but not a smile.
