A sword

Chapter 87 Garlin's Invitation

Every day after school, it is 5 p.m., when the sky is getting dark, and there are not many students walking back and forth in the college. After watching the first prosperous world since the beginning of school, the battle of the library, not to mention the contestants, even the audience who watched the battle shouted hoarsely and waved their arms. Now the students who live in the sky city of the imperial capital have gone home separately, and the people from other parts of the empire have passed the application for residence. At this time After returning to the accommodation area of the college.

Lance walked on the main road of the uninhabited college, and the afterglow of the sunset sprinkled on the beautiful scenery of the courtyard, which also sprinkled on Lance, adding a poetic...

Slowly walked out of the courtyard door, and Lance smiled gently. Everything he experienced today was a little dreamlike. He never thought that after his strength reached the holy level, he could create such a magical existence as the imprint space to inherit. Holding a hand, he felt that he was full of strength in both his heart and hands, and had a clearer goal for the future.

"Hello, is this Lance?" At this time, a tall warrior came to Lance and interrupted his meditation.

"Exact, what's the matter?" Lance looked at the person and nodded.

"Well, our lady has been waiting for you to discuss something." The warrior pointed to a carriage in the distance.

"Your lady?" Lance looked in the direction of the warrior's finger and saw the gorgeous carriage quietly parked on the roadside in the distance. His eyes were excellent. Even though he was hundreds of meters away, he still saw the logo on the carriage, the Wokind Chamber of Commerce. Is it her...' He, who had been calm, became nervous for no reason when he saw the carriage, because he had already guessed who the people in the carriage were. Because of this, my heartbeat accelerated involuntarily when I thought of meeting him alone later...

"Well, yes, please come with me." The samurai politely stretched out his hand, showing the demeanor of the warrior in the big family, and then led Lance to the carriage in the distance.

......

......

"Miss, I have brought it." Before the warrior and Lance arrived at the carriage, they did not greet the driver sitting in front of the carriage, but directly respectfully asked the people in the carriage for instructions.

"Well, I'm coming..." A beautiful female voice sounded in the carriage... Hearing her voice, Lance couldn't help trembling. Although he knew that the person waiting in the car should be her, he finally confirmed 100% of the sound at this moment. Just now, she was thinking about whether her heart was sure. Then I jumped faster.

"Lance..." The girl opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out, revealing her extremely beautiful side face. Seeing that the teenager outside the car was looking at her crazily, he couldn't help but be slightly ashamed, squeezed his lips and smiled, and then whispered, "What are you doing standing stupidly? Get in the car quickly."

Ai Jialin is very well-bred, and she is actually very polite to everyone. It's just that there is a difference between treating friends and strangers. If you follow the etiquette, you need to come down to the meeting in person and then invite them. Ai Jialin just softly invited Lance, but did not leave. It was faintly revealed that she regarded Lance as her friend and behaved more casually in front of him.

"Uh...Okay." Lance nodded in a stunned way and got into the car.

In the car, the beautiful girl was sitting on the soft chair in the carriage. She saw the person coming in with a sweet smile first, and then motioned him to come to her side.

"Agaline... er... haven't you come home yet..." Lance sat down, looked at the sweet and smiling person, nervous, and asked a meaningless word. The college has been out of school for a long time, and the carriage has been waiting here quietly for a long time to wait for him.

"Puff..." Seeing Lance's appearance, Garlin couldn't help smiling. Although the other party was handsome and talented, every time he saw himself, he was a little silly, without pretending or disguise, which made Garlin very fond of him.

"Okay, okay, Lance, I'm waiting for you here today. I just want to discuss something with you." Ai Jialin looked at the teenager beside her, stopped laughing and said.

"Well, good!" Hearing that the other party had something to do, Lance immediately sat up straight and listened attentively.

"Don't be so serious, just chat with friends about things, okay?" Agaline said with a smile.

"Okay." Lance relaxed a little and nodded looking at the beautiful girl opposite.

"Seeing that you are so energetic, you must have successfully selected books in the library. Congratulations to Lance first."

"Well, thank you, Ai Jialin."

"There are some things in our family these days. Betsy's father, Count Minas, is also very busy because of political affairs, so she will be very busy during this period. We may not be able to celebrate for you if you successfully choose a book."

"It's okay. I should have invited you." Lance said quickly.

Ai Jialin smiled lightly, and then watched Lance open his mouth, trying to say something but stopped.

"Ai Jialin, just tell me if there is anything I can do. If there is anything I can do to help, I will definitely not refuse." Looking at the cute appearance of the other party who wanted to say but did not dare to say, Lance had guessed that Ai Jialin should be asking for something, but she was embarrassed to speak.

"Well, okay, then I'll just say... Um... Lance, do you have time next weekend?" The beautiful girl stared at Lance Road with big eyes.

"Weekend?" Lance thought for a moment, then looked at the other party and said seriously, "There is nothing to do on the weekend. On weekends, my martial arts training is very small, so it can be said that I have time all day."

"That's great, I... I want to ask you to do me a favor..." Agaline whispered.

"Well, good!" Lance nodded.

"Ha ha, you agreed without asking me what I was doing?" Ai Jialin said with a smile.

Lance shook his head and said, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely help." There is a sense of righteousness between the looks. In the past, he also asked for help from his friends in the temple without asking for help in return, but the situation that the other party directly agreed to the content of the matter had not happened. Only Lance himself knew why.

Looking at the other party's serious appearance, Ai Jialin was a little moved. She felt that the other party was actually very similar to herself. Although she was also polite to others, her sincerity when she really treated her friends was nothing. She blushed uncontrollably at the thought of what she was going to tell him later.

"Well... that's it..." Ai Jialin summoned up her courage and then said, "Do you know that there will be a large banquet between the high nobles of the empire next weekend, and many domestic dignitaries will come to celebrate several military events. There has been a key breakthrough in large-scale magic weapons to celebrate.

Lance frowned and thought about it, but found that it seemed that this matter was not clear. The large banquet empire was held many times a year, and Lance in his previous life had always carried out tasks outside, which could be said to be said to be unconcerned. After rebirth, I was dedicated to learning, and I really didn't pay much attention to it.

Thinking of this, he shook his head apologetically. I'm sorry, Ai Jialin, I don't seem to have heard of this prosperous world. Will it affect what I want to help you?"

"It doesn't matter..." Ai Jialin shook her head. As long as you have time... If you have time to go with me... It's a successful help..." She proposed to invite male classmates to the banquet. Thinking of a series of etiquette such as holding each other's hands at the meeting as a male and female companions, her face turned red uncontrollably and stammered.

"Do you want me to accompany you?" Lance was stunned and then said, "But isn't that a place where high nobles interact with each other in that kind of banquet? Wouldn't it be good for me to go?"

"Of course not..." Ai Jialin shook her head quickly and said, "Actually, I went to participate on behalf of my father and the Chamber of Commerce, but... just... Alas, do you remember the weekend nine days ago?"

"Well, of course I remember." Lance nodded and remembered the rainy night. He and Ai Jialin walked slowly on the streets of the imperial capital, the beautiful night scenery of the imperial capital, and the beautiful side face of the girl beside him...

"Ha ha, I couldn't help crying to you that night. I hope you don't see me... In fact, what I asked you today has something to do with that day..." Ai Jialin lowered her head and said. A brother in the military wanted to marry my family, but I really didn't like him, so I refused him. But he didn't give up. Two days ago, he sent an invitation to invite me to be his female companion at the banquet. But I really don't want to go hand in hand with him..."

"Well, what can I do for you?" Lance asked.

"Well, I want to... I want to ask you to pretend to be my male companion... accompany me to the banquet..."

"But, my identity..." Lance frowned and asked. He was considering whether it would be inappropriate for him to attend as a civilian. Since Ai Jialin was sincerely invited, it would be better for him to show his identity to accompany her.

"It doesn't matter, I've already thought about it..." Ai Jialin said, "Just dress up as the prince of a large chamber of commerce in the middle of the empire and attend with me. Although the other party is a little domineering, he is still a cultivated and rational person. It's convenient for me to attend the banquet with you to understand what it means. , and won't be too entangled anymore."

"Well, so... okay." Lance nodded. Since Ai Jialin has made a plan, he doesn't have to say his family background. Otherwise, it is inevitable that there will be some pretense at this time, which will make Ai Jialin feel uncomfortable.

"Well, thank you, Lance!" Ai Jialin looked into the teenager's eyes and said. But in my heart, I think that people who can be admitted to the college, whether they are nobles or civilians, are actually very proud, especially geniuses like Lance. She was a little unhappy about asking the other party to pretend to be a noble to accompany her to the banquet, and she was wronged by agreeing to her request. After a moment, she finally summoned up her courage and said firmly to Lance, "I want you to pretend to be a noble and go with me. I have absolutely no intention of looking down on your identity. Think. It's just that the requirements of the banquet... In fact, in my heart... I'm actually very willing to go to the banquet with you..." Ai Jialin blushed and said the self-righteous 'comfort' dialogue to Lance, but I don't know why my heart is already jumping like a deer...

Lance didn't say anything because he couldn't speak anymore. Hearing Ai Jialin's words and looking at her cute red face, I couldn't help but be crazy...
