Abe the Wizard

Chapter 12 Welcome Ball

The servants greeted the guests invited by the Knight Marshall outside the gates of the castle, who were the surrounding lords and nobles of Harvest City a hundred miles away. From this point of view, the Knight's friendship was quite extensive, which of course was inseparable from his family background.

Hosted in the lobby of the castle, hundreds of giant smokeless candles lit up the entire lobby, attracting taste buds with red wine from Dubagang City, the Principality, and fresh wild taste hunted in the forest behind the castle.

The sky is already dark and the guests in the lobby have arrived. No one is going to be late for this kind of prom. Compared to the diversity of the planet's night-time leisure activities, the world's people, by night, are very scarce. Poor people can't light expensive oil lamps at night, so they rest early. And nobility's evening activities are just reading books, and nobility in the city will have the opportunity to listen to opera, but those performances are not everyday.

The cost of hosting a dance is enormous, and the average aristocrat can only hold one or two such parties a year.

Abel's Bennett Knight Leader had never held such a party since he remembered. He wondered how the Marshall Knight managed his finances. He should really let the Bennett Knight and the Marshall Knight learn how to manage their finances. Abel thought so.

Abel is the star of the day, so he and the Knight Marshall rest on the second floor of the lobby until Lindsay, the butler downstairs in the black tuxedo, shouts: "Please, the distinguished Knight Marshall and Young Master Abel. ”

Everyone clapped and the Marshall knight slowly walked down the stairs with Abel, nodding his head to the guests. And when the Marshall knights lifted their glasses, the prom was at its peak.

At the prom tonight, Abel didn't know anyone but the Knight Marshall, and he was under the age of thirteen, and no lady came to invite him to dance, and Abel, who was left to watch, except for the occasional greeting of a guest and his courteous return, had nothing to do with him.

“Lucky brunette. ”

“Yeah, what a lucky guy. ”

“How can such a good thing not have my share. ”

“You might as well pick me, just like you look. ”

At the corner of the ball, a few young people were joking together, and they didn't notice that they were approaching Abel. When they saw Abel, they were embarrassed for a while, and then a young man in a white dress came out and gave Abel an evening gift, and he said with regret, "Sorry, we didn't notice you coming. ”

“No need to apologize, I'm interrupting your conversation.” Abel returned to an evening ceremony and returned calmly.

Before coming to Harry Castle, Abel had thought that someone would talk about it, but as someone who was already 40 years old and two years old, he was not concerned about these arguments.

Abel's attitude seemed to welcome the sentiments of several young people who were holding Abel together to talk about interesting stories, such as a jazz with a new lover, a prey that someone had struck, and so on.

The young man in the white dress was Isaac, the eldest son of Baron Victor of Toyota, who had just shown great envy for Abel's good fortune in being adopted by a knight without a son.

Isaac's father, Baron Victor, was one of the many jazz who harvested the city, and although they lived in abundance, most of them were engaged in commercial activities, because in order to maintain the luxury of the aristocracy, they had to be based on a large quantity of gold coins.

Although businessmen are inferior to the eyes of the nobility, in order to live, they can only earn gold coins by engaging in commerce that they despise, and the Lord of the Sealed Land, even the Knight of the Sealed Land, has a higher status than their barons without the Sealed Land.

Without the enclosure, there are no castles, they can only live in the city, and the bigger houses are no more free than their own, and the output of the enclosure can have sustained income to sustain themselves and their families, as well as the funds of the Guard.

Abel can also understand Isaac's envy that Abel can be tolerated as long as there is no malice.

A gentle sip of red wine, listening to several people, inserting a sentence from time to time, makes you feel that he is not too cold, but not too enthusiastic.

At this time, a shady gaze swept over. It was the first time that Abel, a fourth-degree intern knight, caught the malice in his eyes. He measured past without trace, still shaking his glass gently in his hand.

It was a teenager, tall, handsome looking, blonde hair comb, and his eyes were too thin and a little shady.

Touching Isaac gently, Abel asked softly, "Who is that?” Speaking of sweeping the teenager with his eyes unintentionally.

“Him, his name is Daniel, a disgusting guy.” Isaac turned around and looked at the teenager, turning back in disdain and answering.

“What's going on?” Abel asked curiously.

“He was the son of a businessman, his sister married Lord Walker of Harvest, and he joined the aristocratic circle, but he was still not satisfied with them.” Isaac said here, looking up at Abel, and said: "He heard that the Marshall knight had no children, so he asked his sister to help him become the adopted son of the Marshall knight. His sister couldn't help but ask Lord Walker to find the Marshall knight, and the Marshall knight refused in person. ”

Isaac had a sip of wine, as if he was in a good mood to talk about Daniel's refusal: "This has spread in the aristocratic circle, you know what everyone says? ”

Seeing Abel's calm expression, Isaac continued boringly: "Everyone said that Daniel had no self-knowledge, and Lord Walker had no face for it, and Lord Walker did not want to think, would the Knight of Marshall accept the son of a businessman as his heir? He's the one who promised and his family won't. ”

Speaking of these gossips, Isaac's interest grew dramatically, saying everything he knew in one breath, and making Abel understand why Daniel hated himself.

Some of the boring stories of these people were intolerable, and the important thing about these young people was that they were not counting on the flower news and trail news, looking for an opportunity, saying hello to a few people, and Abel walked to the bathroom.

Daniel saw Abel walking toward the bathroom, and he stood up and walked toward the bathroom.

Abel didn't go into the bathroom, he just stood by the window near the bathroom, let the outside wind blow his own face a little hot, just 12 years old body drank a little wine, felt a bit of alcohol, after the cold wind, felt a little more comfortable.

Put the glass on the windowsill and Abe reminds herself that she is still too young to drink. He knew all this when he was a gym coach before, but the vibe of the prom made him forget his age a little, and after self-censorship, he decided not to touch alcohol until he was an adult.

As the owner of today, leaving the prom for a long time was very rude. Turning around, when Abel was about to return to the lobby, a figure hit him. Almost at the same time, Abel's body reacted. A strong level 4 trainee knight's breath gushed out of his body. The figure hit his body without shaking him in the slightest, but was bounced out by the stress of his body. The person flew three meters in the air and slid two meters after falling to the ground before stopping and falling to the ground.

Someone happened to see the scene and didn't know anything had happened until the person was bounced out, and someone had come to check it out.

“It's Daniel.” A knight reached out and turned around and said something.

“Jesus, dear Daniel, what's wrong with you?” A young woman in an aristocratic fluffy dress rushed over to see Daniel on the ground and lost her voice.

As the master, the Knight Marshall came to the scene, saw what was happening on the ground, and asked Abel, "Abe, what's going on? ”

“I don't know. He hit me, and he flew out.” Abel opened his hand and made an innocent statement.

The Marshall knight looked at Daniel on the ground, and he knew what had happened without thinking about it. Abel had just arrived today, not even a few people knew him, and as the master of today, he would never, for any reason, lecture today's guests.

And Daniel, the young man, he remembered, because after rejecting the young man's rude request, he was ridiculed by his friends, only because of Lord Walker's relationship, and he didn't pursue it.

Today Daniel attacked the heirs of the castle at a ball he hosted, which is no longer a common move, because Abel, as the heir to the castle, has truly become a nobleman, and attacking nobility in this world is a felony, not to mention attacking the heirs of the castle in someone else's castle, which is a search for death.

Ignoring the woman who was still crying, the Knight Marshall looked back at Lord Walker in the crowd and said to Lord Walker, “Are you bringing Daniel to my castle today to provoke the Harry family? Or are you preparing for an honor duel with me in your honor? ”

Lord Walker looked ugly at Daniel, and to be honest, if he knew Daniel was so bold, he wouldn't dare bring Daniel here to kill him, and this time Daniel begged to come and see what the bottom was like and become the heir to the Knight of Marshall.
