Chapter 261 Be My Apprentice
When the music was halfway through, the door of the banquet hall slowly walked away.
The two teenagers in pure black and gold lined robes immediately attracted everyone's eyes. They looked like brothers. But only they know what is hidden under this gentle smile.
This was just a casual banquet, but as the host of the banquet, he did not come here, which made Star frown.
He originally wanted to borrow the banquet tonight to learn about Fergrand's movements... It is a very rude thing for the organizer of the banquet to be absent. Can His Holiness be so casual? Star and Roland couldn't help looking at each other, and their eyes were full of puzzled eyes.
Star took a goblet from the waiter's silver plate. "I don't mind if I walk around."
"Of course, the party hasn't officially started yet. You can go there at any time. There are so many noble ladies who came here tonight. Why don't you go up and talk to them? Maybe you will have an unforgettable night!" Roland then whispered, "I didn't find the figure of the old fox. The undead knew what he had planned."
"You're right!" Starr put the goblet back on the tray. I think I should be able to ask some information from other people.
"Good luck."
The nobles are chatting with each other. In the southern cross, which is more luxurious than the Joan of Arc Hotel, there are nobility talking in a circle, either in a low voice or with a smile.
The men talked about the current situation in the country. They speculated when His Majesty Roland would send a large army to recover the land on the north bank of the Supratis River.
The women talked about each other's clothes and clothes, and the silk fan covered the ** one night.
However, not every circle is so harmonious, and the corner of the side hall on the second floor is full of the malicious ridicule of several young people. This ridicule attracted Star to the past...
"Look at you, you bastard. I really don't believe how you sneaked into this banquet. I heard that your father was killed by the devil, but you are drinking here.
Star stood aside and looked coldly at these arrogant young nobles, who came with the elders of the family. Several young people pointed around a plainly dressed half-big child.
A noble young man with a silver bow tie next to him slapped the child casually. Turn your face over me. I hate your eyes.
To Sta's surprise, the child did not rush up as crazy or angry as he thought, and he nodded obediently.
"If it weren't for the mercy of His Holiness, a broken family like you would not be qualified to enter such an upper-class banquet at all."
The situation here has attracted more people's attention, but they are all watching from afar. In upper-class society, it is common for the upper nobles to bully the lower nobles. An inadmissable noble lady walked over, and Starr's eyes was the leading noble girl.
She stood in the middle of a large group of noble ladies and ladies, but after any man's eyes fell on her, he would stop involuntarily.
She has ocean-deep eyes, shining like pearls.
She is not a formal dress, but a casual dress. There is no jewelry all over her body, but it sets off her natural beauty.
"You can't bully him like this. As a gentleman, you should use your courage to deal with the enemy and treat your compatriots with your humility. Instead of humiliating a child with extreme vocabulary, I bet he is not even twelve years old!" The girl said.
She is like a princess, with a pair of slightly angry eyes on her flawless face.
Star smiled. He had more important things to do, rather than wasting his precious time for these little things. But at the moment of turning around, Star stopped. He saw the child's eyes...
He is familiar with that kind of eyes.
Angry is hidden under humility and subservance. With a smile and respect, he couldn't bear it.
Such a look is like himself who used to be in the alchemy castle. Star quickly changed his mind, but stopped and looked at the other party. He has no obligation to save anyone unless the rescued person should have equal 'value'.
"We're not bullying him. Look how cute this child is... Don't you think so!" The noble teenager with a silver collar said with a smile, and he gently put his hand on the teenager's shoulder.
"Yes, beautiful lady. You misunderstood." The teenager said with a smile, and there was no trace of compulsion from his face.
Sta shook his head and he was disappointed. Maybe the child is afraid to show anger just because of timidity.
He looked ahead, and Doriel was talking and laughing in the crowd not far away. He was just about to leave when there was a new movement here.
The noble young man grabbed the young lady's hand, but was knocked out by the boy. The boy moved surprisingly fast. He quickly pulled out the magic sword on the waist of the noble young man and stabbed him. Then he ran to himself with the young lady.
"Catch him, that broken settler dares to hurt me! I'm going to kill him!" The noble young man shouted angrily, and a thumb-long wound was cut open on his arm. Because of the pain, he even shed tears.
The boy quickly hid behind Star and looked at him with a help-seeking eye.
A large group of young nobles looked at each other like this and came over angrily. In their eyes, even if the three 'deposed households' who came to the banquet were killed, they could completely deal with him with the power of their own family. It is what they like to do to bully fewer people, not to mention that they can prove their bravery to their favorite ladies.
Many ladies' eyes have been attracted by the episodes here.
"Make way! Hand over the bastard behind you!"
The noble young man had been bandaged and stood in front of Star by a large group of people. In the case of a large number of them, Star had to get out of the way. And more people have turned their eyes to Star, looking forward to his next move. More aristocratic girls expect him to be a brave aristocrat and will not show any fear in the face of power.
But they are wrong.
Star turned his body sideways, revealing the teenager hiding behind him. Why not?" Star said so.
"It's your knowledge! You should know that a shabby settler like you is not qualified to attend such a banquet at all. I will give you a chance to get out of the back door honestly after the party starts.
The teenager behind him showed disappointment, and the girl frowned dissatisfiedly. This scene happened to be caught by Star, and he quickly changed his mind.
"Tell me what your name is?" Star asked the teenager.
"Your Excellency, my name is Uther!" The young man replied respectfully.
"Why do you think I will save you?" Despite the drive of the group of noble young people, Star stood still and chatted with the teenager.
"Because when they were bullying me, only you stopped here. Indeed, your eyes don't mean to help me. But I noticed that when you looked at me, you took a trace of interest. I think, maybe a certain point in me attracts you!" Uther said. But you don't seem to be satisfied, and you still want to go. So I think this is my only chance, so I hurt that person.
Star nodded with satisfaction. This child is unexpectedly excellent, and he has good ability to know people. I can analyze so much information from my own eyes and make judgments.
"Then why do you think I can block so many angry nobles for you?" Star asked with a smile.
"Because of the badge you wear." Ussel whispered.
Star smiled. Uther's last words should be said loudly so that everyone can hear them. But he didn't do it. Instead, he just let himself hear it. In this way, other noble youths will not guess their identity and continue to blame themselves until they are taught what they deserve. Excellent calculus ability, a well-threate teenager.
"I'm an alchemist. Do you know what I need to help you?" Star continued to ask.
"Your Excellency, I would like to be your servant. I swear that I will never betray you, and I am willing to follow you with my loyalty for the rest of my life. Uther put his hand on his chest and said solemnly.
"You should know that I have never been short of servants. But I still have one less apprentice!" Star turned around and looked at the angry noble youths.
"Mentor! Are you willing to accept me as an apprentice? Uther's eyes widened, and he looked at Star in disbelief. Am I dreaming that you are willing to accept me as an apprentice?
"Don't you want to?" Star asked with a smile.
"No, no, no, I don't. I am willing to prove my loyalty to you with my whole life. You are my eternal mentor!" Uther knelt down in front of Star with a bang.
A few people looked at him inexplicably, and the girl frowned even more. What's going on?"
"I just need you to prove your loyalty with your actions. If you want, I will make you my pride. But..." Star walked slowly to the other party, "But now I should do what a tutor should do. Someone dares to bully my apprentice. I think you will be happy to see them teach them a hard lesson!"
