Chapter 649 Dinner

"Come here, keep an eye on him secretly, and don't miss any of his actions. If he really wants to hide the space ring, then bring it back."

After Cohen left, the hooded figure called the guards and issued instructions in an orderly manner.

"Also, go to the warehouse to get a standard magic-proof collar and put it on our little guest who is still sleeping. In case he struggles too violently when being loved by adults and accidentally hurts himself."

After everything was done, the hooded figure walked out of the dark basement, and then took off the thick disguise, restoring the true appearance of the city master.

"Humph, the vision of a small person is only so after all."

Disdaining Cohen's previous performance, the butler returned to prepare to report to the city lord, while thinking about the possible origin of Avis.

Blond hair and blue eyes are a common combination among the nobles of the major kingdoms of the Itel Federation. Avis adjusted his appearance in advance and did not carry any items that could prove his identity.

So, even the knowledgeable butler could not judge Avis's specific identity for a while. From the style of Anvis's clothes, he could roughly infer that this person was a minor noble from the Kingdom of Loran in the central and western part of the Federation.

However, according to his guess, Anvis's real purpose was that he was being hunted down for some reason and had to escape from his family, and he planned to take refuge in the Gloria Empire.

He knew very well that although the 'Good Place' tavern was just an unofficial tavern on the surface, it was actually a territory operated by a paid snakehead who helped people smuggle into the empire.

Because the other party was quite powerful and paid enough taxes, although he knew the other party's identity, he was always at peace.

"My lord, I have checked. The identity of the 'Canary' this time cannot be confirmed for the time being, but it can be confirmed that it is not the descendant of a nearby noble. The appearance is rare and perfect, which should be enough to satisfy you."

Entering the city lord's study, the butler bowed his head slightly and reported respectfully to the desk.

Although it seemed a bit strange that the city lord did not care about men and women, no matter how strange the master's taste was, as a servant, he should not show any doubts.

"Very good..."

Behind the wide desk, the mayor of Dragon Shadow City, who looked like a middle-aged wealthy aristocrat, stopped writing with a feather pen and finally looked up.

"Keblas, get ready. There will be an important banquet tonight. Unlike the past, this time there will be big figures from the large kingdoms of the Federation and the Gloria Empire secretly present.

Be sure to prepare all the hospitality items with the highest standards and try to satisfy all the guests!"

"My lord... this schedule may be a bit tight."

Frowning slightly, the butler expressed his concerns with cautious words.

"The confidentiality level of this party is very high, Keblas, I just received the news."

Sighing, the mayor rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, and his reddish-brown curly hair was a bit messy.

"Okay, that's it. Bring up the canary you just caught. I'll check it myself. If there's no problem, then take it with you as one of the treats for tonight's party."

"Your will, sir."

Knowing that the city lord had made a decision, the butler bowed and quickly left the study, and began to urgently order the servants to prepare according to past experience, while upgrading all the arrangements to the top level.

At the same time, he personally rushed to the basement and brought the reawakened Anvis to the city lord's study.

"Welcome to Dragon Shadow City, my dear little lord. I hope you don't mind the way my subordinates rescued you from the slave traders. After all, it's impossible for servants to do things so perfectly."

After carefully looking at Anvis's appearance, the city lord couldn't help but flash a trace of joy on his face, and seemed very satisfied with the quality this time.

He saw through Anvis's true strength at a glance. He was only at the second level, and his foundation was relatively solid, but it was meaningless.

In addition, the face of the young man in front of him did not match any of the nobles he knew. This means that the other party is either from a faraway place or from some unknown small family.

"Hello, I am Rig from the Typhon family, from the Emerald City of the Kingdom of Loran. This respected sir, I am very grateful for your help, but I wonder if you can help me untie this collar."

Facing the city lord's "welcome", the young man responded with a calm tone, but there was inevitably a hint of "panic" in the depths of his eyes.

Although this panic seemed to be concealed in the next moment, in the eyes of the city lord, this was the performance of Avis pretending to be calm, and the playful smile became even stronger.

"Unfortunately, I can't meet your request. Because I spent three thousand gold coins to buy you from those merchants.

But as a noble, I can give you a chance. Tonight, I have an important party, and you need to receive the guests for me and meet all their requirements.

If you can find someone you know in the process and let him agree to redeem you, then congratulations, you are free. But if not, then unfortunately, you will become my personal property!"

The greedy and obscene eyes wandered around Anvis as if they were real, and the city lord waved his hand.

"Now, take him away and let him recognize the reality."

.

….….

Soon, it was night.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner, and the city lord's mansion was lit up with brilliant lights. Accompanied by grand but decadent music, various carriages and constructed vehicles drove into the city lord's mansion.

Guests dressed in luxurious clothes but wearing various masks entered one after another, passed through the gate that seemed to lead to heaven and exuded endless light and fragrance, and plunged into the feast of tonight's carnival.

The nearby residents have become accustomed to this, because the city lord often organizes such banquets for fun.

In one of the gorgeous carriages, the deputy commander of the [Spark] resistance organization, Shute, was explaining the purpose of this trip to Roche, Matt, and Alyssa, who are currently in the middle of the Starfire.

"The enemy of our enemy is our friend. If we want to overthrow the ruling class of the Gloria Empire, we must temporarily cooperate with one of them in order to truly insert ourselves into the civil war of the empire.

The four duke families of the empire have been entrenched for a long time. In thousands of years of development, they are stronger than the marquises in terms of foundation and strength. They represent the vested interests in this civil war and are also our natural enemies.

I have received secret intelligence that at tonight's banquet, representatives of the marquises of the Gloria Empire will secretly attend to discuss cooperation with the forces of the Federation that intend to intervene in the civil war of the empire.

The marquises need more foreign aid to end the current pattern of the four major families ruling the empire.

There are not many forces that are qualified to obtain this news, but this is a rare opportunity. For our support, the marquises of the empire will certainly be willing to pay a higher price."

Forced to update twice, damn...
