Chapter 250: 7 Prince Kevin

The guards inside the palace are very strict. Although three steps, one guard and five steps and one sentry are exaggerated, there are at least seven or eight clear sentry posts where Al can see with the naked eye. The numbers are gone.

Under the leadership of Selvin, Al came to the main hall of the palace. At this time, the main hall was full of people. The old man with white beard and hair at the top was undoubtedly the current Kingdom of Versailles. King Ivan XI died.

Looking at Al who was following Selvin, King Ivan XI showed a smile on his face, raised his hand to raise the wine glass on the table in front of him, and said loudly like a bell: "Welcome from the 'Crow's Nest' Wizard, Mr. Al Grant, raise your glasses to me, and welcome Mr. Al to represent the 'Crow's Nest'!"

After speaking, Ivan XI raised his head, drank the wine in the glass, and then put the glass in his hand on the table. The maid standing behind him immediately stepped forward and refilled the wine glass.

Ivan XI took the lead to drink a glass of wine, and the officials and nobles sitting in the hall also raised their wine glasses and drank the wine inside.

The upper structure of the Kingdom of Versailles is somewhat similar to that of the Holy Sword Empire. Both officials and nobles are separated. Nobles can be officials, but they have to be like ordinary people. They start from school, go through layers of selection, or be appointed by the royal family. become an official.

This method not only weakened the rights of nobles, but also greatly increased the rights of the royal family, which has the right to appoint officials. From the perspective of the royal family, this move is undoubtedly extremely beneficial, but if the royal family has A fatuous king would deal a huge blow to the country.

Of course, these problems have nothing to do with Al. Although all kinds of knowledge from his previous life can let him see the current shortcomings of the Versailles Kingdom at a glance, but Al does not intend to get involved in politics and mundane things, so he looks at With the people in the hall who were toasting under the leadership of Ivan XI, Al went directly to the second blank table on the left of Ivan XI and took a glass full of wine, facing Ivan one after another. The Eleventh and a certain kind of officials and nobles saluted slightly, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"Okay! Mr. Al is very straightforward, please take your seat quickly. I hope that in the next few years, you can like life in the Kingdom of Versailles."

After speaking, Ivan XI looked at Al who was seated and nodded to him, then he laughed and said to everyone in the hall: "Everyone is here, now the banquet officially begins!"

It can be seen that the upper ethos of the Versailles Kingdom is more martial, although it is not light on culture, but the importance of martial arts can be seen from the seven princes and queens who are all dressed as warriors.

Picking up the glass, he took another sip of the wine,

Al picked up the knife and fork and quickly ate a turkey leg, and then took a piece of steak on the plate, ready to taste it carefully.

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded from Al's left.

"Looking at the way you eat, you should be walking the path of a bloodline wizard?"

Hearing this, Al put down the knife and fork, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and looked at the person who was speaking on the left.

I saw that the person sitting on the left side of Al was a charming young woman who looked to be around thirty years old, with golden curly hair hanging behind her and a sky blue robe draped over her body, which just happened to make her perfect figure change It is looming, it looks like a blooming flower, which is unforgettable at a glance.

Seeing Al's gaze, the female wizard immediately said: "My name is Catherine, a first-level wizard from 'Touch of Elements', I know you are Al from 'Crow's Nest', see Glad to see you."

Catherine has a cheerful personality, and Al still likes this kind of person very much, so he nodded, stretched out his hand to shake Catherine's extended hand, and then said, "I'm Al, nice to meet you, future In the past few years, we can be regarded as colleagues, and we hope to take care of each other."

"Of course it's no problem. Our 'Elemental Touch' has a lot of cooperation with your 'Crow's Nest'. On this basis, the two of us can naturally cooperate very well."

Nodding to Catherine, Al turned his head to look at the expressionless old man sitting on his right, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "I am Al from the 'Crow's Nest', I think you are from Mr. Hogan from the 'Circle White Tower', it's a pleasure to meet you, and I hope to cooperate with you."

Listening to Al's words, Hogan looked at Al, with a flash of sarcasm in his eyes, and said lightly: "I don't think I, a second-level white wizard, need to be with you, a first-level black wizard. If there is any cooperation, the acquaintance will be avoided, as long as the two of you don't cause me any trouble in the future."

After speaking, Hogan picked up the wine glass on the table and drank the wine in it. He didn't even have the idea of ​​shaking hands with Al, as if Al's outstretched hand didn't exist.

Seeing Hogan who completely regarded himself as non-existent, Al smiled slightly, shook his head, withdrew his hand without any embarrassment, and continued to pick up the knife and fork to eat the steak in front of him.

At this time, Al didn't know that the smile between him and Hogan just now was not pleasant, and Ivan XI and the seven princes and princesses who had been secretly paying attention to the three of them had a panoramic view. Some people showed it to Al His indifference is disdainful, even contemptuous, thinking that Al is pretending to be calm to cover up his embarrassment.

However, some people felt that Al's performance was excellent, and he didn't feel angry at Hogan's rudeness and arrogance, but continued to eat calmly, which was really good.

The banquet went on for a long time and did not stop until late at night.

After eating and drinking, Al sat on the spot with his eyes closed, waiting for the end of the banquet.

Around midnight, a group of officials and nobles finally showed signs of fatigue. The original sound of toasting and singing has basically disappeared, and those who took off their clothes, wrestled and danced fell to the ground one after another.

At this time, Yiwen XI looked at the courtiers who were gradually quieting down below, laughed, and still said in a loud voice: "Okay, everyone is tired. If this is the case, let's go home and rest. Tomorrow Take a day off and continue to deal with various things the day after tomorrow.

Oh, by the way, Heron, you have to remember to do a good job at the academic exchange conference half a year later. Since this year's academic exchange conference can be held in Versailles, we must make those academic elites from other countries see our Versailles kingdom. The upside and the bright side, so you've got to get things done for me. "

Hearing the latter paragraph, I saw the middle-aged man sitting at the bottom right of Yiwen XI stood up, saluted Yiwen XI, and then said: "Please rest assured, father, I I will definitely handle this matter properly, and will not make my father feel any dissatisfaction."

"It doesn't matter whether I am satisfied or not. The important thing is to satisfy the foreign scholars who came to Versailles. You must know that those scholars are often powerful wizards or blood knights, and there are even some from various sects. academics are coming, so you must be well prepared to avoid any trouble."

Heron looked at his father and nodded fiercely. Although he was a little uneasy about this matter, he couldn't show it, and he must do this matter well.

You must know that the throne of the Yiwen family does not have the saying that the eldest son inherits it, but the capable ones. The original Yiwen XI was the fourth son of the previous king Yiwen X, so Helong tried his best to show it since he was a child. Own.

Heron knew very well that this task was the final test for him by Ivan XI. If he could handle the matter perfectly, then the throne could be said to belong to him with great possibility. If there are many mistakes and omissions, then he will never even think about getting the throne in the future!

Looking at Heron with a resolute face, Ivan XI nodded slightly in satisfaction. He knew very well that his own condition had reached a very bad state, although now relying on his own blood power and medicine Suppress the pain, but as long as one accidentally makes the pain break out, then basically he can only wait for death.

Therefore, the future candidate for the throne, Ivan XI, has already begun to choose among his seven children. No matter which child he likes or not, as long as he has the ability, he can become the future king.

Of course, Ivan XI still has to take care of Heron, the eldest son who has been with him for more than forty years. This time, it is the opportunity that Ivan XI gave him.

After the banquet, the second prince took Hogan to his residence, and the fourth princess also took Catherine out of the hall.

At this time, the third prince that Al was waiting for did not come before him, but was replaced by the seventh prince, the youngest of the seven children of King Ivan XI, Prince Kevin who was only seventeen years old this year.

"Master Ayer, Brother Three has other important matters, so let me take his place to take you to the stone tower where you live. I hope you don't blame Brother Three."

Looking at the handsome seventh prince Kevin, Al smiled slightly and said, "No problem, anyway, whether it is the third prince or the seventh prince, you just need to take me to the stone tower where I live."

"Okay, Lord Al, please come with me. The stone tower where you live is close to the manor where I live. That's why the third brother asked me to take you to the stone tower where you live instead."

"So that's it. Then we will be neighbors from now on. If you need help with anything, you can come to that stone tower to find me." (To be continued.)
