Then it was finally here on the day of the party on the island. Elise and Alvin were already dressed in their maid outfits and prepared to set off. When they walked to the living room, they were shocked by their master's appearance...
Master... Your clothes are...
At this time, Ed was wearing a very handsome dress that he had never worn before, and his hair was combed. It turned out that the slightly sloppy image disappeared in an instant. Not to mention Alvin, even Elise had never seen Ed as stylish as such
Oh, you two have prepared Ah. This dress is my original military uniform. At least I have to go to the palace and wear it more formally. Do you think this is OK?
Well... it looks very good, but... I'm a little uncomfortable
Of course, Elise said this with a hint of uneasiness. Her master dressed so well, wouldn’t she be trying to seduce any noble lady?
Anyway, it's only one day, so if you don't get used to it, just get on the boat and get ready to set off
The two little beauties went out talking and laughing. Although they both had their own concerns, they were accompanying Ed to attend the party, and they were still looking forward to it.
Ed took out the two knives he had before, took them to his waist, and then got on the boat.
Judging from the sky, it was almost dusk. It was almost the same if you set off now, so the boat left the shore again and headed towards the city area.
The Imperial Palace, as the strongest and largest political power center in the western part of the mainland, is definitely worthy of its identity. However, if you look at it from the outside, it is only that, because after all, it was transformed from ancient military fortresses, and the gray tone composed of city walls and stones really lacks some magnificence and elegance.
But if you are lucky enough to enter the castle gate, these ideas will be immediately shot away by those extremely luxurious ornate decorations and sculptures. However, this large gap in the inside and outside image also proves in some ways the country's nouveau riche development method, just like the library next to it, pursuing external images too much, but few people really understand the meaning contained in it.
This palace is going to hold another grand party today. Although there is still a lot of time to leave the venue, the nobles and wealthy businessmen have come to the square in front of the palace one after another and started to communicate with each other.
Although tonight is just an engagement party, anyone knows that its meaning is definitely different from the past, because the engagement partner has two pairs, and they are also the most favored children of His Majesty the Emperor, the second prince Enrique and the fourth princess Milia
Their targets are also famous noble children of the imperial capital, Ferner, the little granddaughter of the Cleveland family, and Jacques, the third son of the Bayer family.
Moreover, these four protagonists tonight are all handsome men and beautiful women who are admired by many men and women in the capital. Therefore, today's party can be said to be a festival for many people. Many young children who have never been involved in social occasions also followed their parents out of curiosity. It is amazing that in the past, the eldest princess and the second princess were not so lively, let alone the engagement party, even the real wedding was not so lively.
The dusk was about to end and the sky gradually became dark. A large number of people in the square were also arranged to enter the venue in an orderly manner by the guards and maids in the palace. Some people had discovered that the guard level of the palace today was obviously much higher than in the past. Not only the original guards of the palace, but even the guards appeared. However, considering the situation tonight, most people didn't care much.
Firner, congratulations
It's Ah, congratulations
Woo...If it was Sister Firner, then I would admit it too. Think about it, only you can be worthy of His Highness Enrique
In the hall at this time, Ferner, dressed in gorgeous dresses, was surrounded by a group of noble ladies, urging and congratulating each other. After all, the second prince was the dream lover of the imperial capital girl. Today, she finally belonged to others. It was a regret for most young girls, but the tones of the girls around Ferner were not much jealousy or falsehood, and they all offered blessings with sincere smiles.
As some people say, if a person is only a little ahead of you, you may be jealous, but if he is too much ahead of you, you will only worship him. Firner is in such a queen-like position in the social circle of young women in the imperial capital.
From the Cleveland family with high power, but under the strict education of the family, she has no arrogance and extravagance. She has been loved by everyone since childhood. Coupled with her perfect appearance and inherent noble temperament, she has become the center of people of the same age on any occasion, and she has become the leader of the Guards at a young age, which has made her extremely popular among the many women.
I think only Ferner can deserve the perfect man like the second prince. Even if other girls are lucky enough to get engaged, they will probably be isolated by all women in the future. Moreover, Ferner saved the prince's life two years ago, which made the last little bit of insignificant opposition consciously shut up.
Thank you... I hope you can find a good home as soon as possible
Firner, surrounded by the middle, seemed a little tired, but this little bit of tiredness highlighted her beauty. Some girls around her who were quite confident in their appearance had to admit that being so beautiful, it was no longer something that could be caught up with by makeup and clothes.
Sister Firner, you don't seem to be too happy Ah?
At this time, a younger girl seemed to see the concerns in Firner's expression and said it
What do you know? Sister Firner has always been like this. When those men confessed to her, her expression was colder than this.
It's Ah or Ah, I just like the cool look of Sister Firner. When my stupid brother confessed, I fell in love with my sister. She was so handsome.
Before Firner could figure out the reason for explaining, the other girls had already helped her to help her
I didn't expect my status in the hearts of these girls to be so high, which surprised Ferner, but when I think back, I seem to have always been very cold to outsiders, and at most I just deal with it symbolically. This cold image is reflected in the hearts of others.
In fact, Firner is really not very happy because she doesn't want to marry Prince Enrique. Although she knows that the other party is the best husband that can be found in the entire country, she just doesn't want to.
Although she looks very calm and intellectual, she is also a woman who believes in intuition and loves at first sight, from childhood to adulthood at all kinds of dances in the imperial capital, no noble man has ever made her moved. Although she is a bit arrogant, it is true. Even the prince is the same. No feeling is no feeling.
So in this aristocratic circle where she was about to get married at the age of 16, Ferner was struggling to be 18 or single with such superior conditions. This time she was forced to get involved. The other party was a royal family and all the conditions were impeccable. Even the grandfather, who had always given her the most freedom, came to persuade her in person. She knew that she really couldn't escape this time. I think it was a bit sorry for her family if she was 18 or single. So the situation is now, and she was waiting for trial as if she was on the execution ground.
Thinking of the man that would make me moved, an image appeared in Ferner's mind.
This man who has teased himself but is helpless, his strength, his experience in joining the army and his unpredictable feeling all attract him. Although he is unwilling to admit it, he has indeed made him moved.
But when I thought of myself having been moved by that man, Firner suddenly shook his head, as if he wanted to drive out the bastard in his mind. This behavior made the girls around him a little puzzled, but they all felt very cute.
Firner!
A male voice suddenly called her, Captain Locke?
We are now on par, so don't call me the leader anymore, congratulations by the way
It turns out that the owner of the voice is Ferner's old boss, Locke. As a man who also pursued Ferner back then, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he appeared here. But thinking about the man who pursued Ferner in this hall did not have three digits or dozens, so it doesn't matter. Besides, whether as the original boss or colleague, it is necessary to come tonight.
I'm used to shouting like this... I probably won't be able to change it in the future. Besides, I'm afraid I won't be the guard after I get married.
From the tone, Firner obviously doesn't want to retire, and Locke also had a sad expression. This guard officer who has always been obsessed with the beauty in front of him has begun to seriously consider his future marriage for the first time. The goddess in his heart is about to get married. If others may still be a little unconvinced, but he is the second prince. Not to mention that his background is a thousand miles apart, even if he is of the same royal blood, he still thinks he can't compare to the other party.
The brief silence made the two of them not know what to say for a moment. Of course, Firner knew the other party’s feelings for him. Since joining the Guards, Locke has taken care of him from almost all aspects, but he has no feelings for him at all. Looking at this former boss who is almost 30 years old, the girl feels that she has an obligation to help him solve his marriage problem in the future.
But before she could say it, the girls around her had already begun to ask Locke questions. When they learned that the man was Ferner's boss, the gossip girls would not let him go easily. Ferner just took this opportunity to escape and sneaked away while their attention was shifting to Locke.
After that, Firner was greeted all the way in the hall. Most of them basically regarded her as the future concubine. Many of them came directly to get closer so that they could gain some political benefits for their family.
Firner, come here
Grandpa? What's the matter?
Suddenly hearing his grandfather's voice, Firner ran over without hesitation. A girl was steady in this kind of occasion, and she looked like running around.
sorry
Only in front of his grandfather, Earl Gauss, will Ferner be as obedient as a real child, and other than that, her father will not even want her to obey her fate.
Earl Gauss is also a treasure for this granddaughter. As the head of the Cleveland family, Gauss' biggest regret in his life is that the men in the family are unreliable except for themselves. If it weren't for the fact that his son was useless, he wouldn't have to deal with various things as the head of the family at such an age.
After his wife passed away, the two daughters who could share the affairs for him quickly got married. The only son was completely useless because of his childhood education. Later, he finally gave birth to a grandson and hoped to teach him better, but he was as disappointing as his father.
Just when Gauss was already desperate about the family's succession, his youngest granddaughter Firner showed maturity and sensibility far beyond his age. She inherited her mother Ninian's beauty, but her personality is very similar to her grandfather, serious and rigorous.
While her granddaughter's excellent performance made Gauss happy, he also spent almost all his energy on education, and gave ordinary noble children the freedom that ordinary noble children could not get. As a result, she became a martial girl. However, a few years ago, she actually said she wanted to serve in the steel wall fortress. Of course, she refused. As compensation, she entered the Imperial City Guards through relationships, which was also satisfying her wish to join the army.
Gauss originally planned to find a man with excellent conditions to marry into a law when Firner was about the same age, and then pass the position of the head of the family directly to the granddaughter, so that he could retire with peace of mind. However, he never expected that Firner would save the second prince in that assassination conspiracy two years ago, and he fell in love with His Majesty. In the past two years, he said every now and then that Firner would marry into the palace as a prince's concubine, but he had no choice. His Majesty's persuasion was actually equivalent to an order. Thinking about the granddaughter was not young, this matter was settled.
Being able to marry into the royal family is a desperate thing for most nobles, but for Gauss, he was not so happy. After the Cleveland family's biggest political enemy, Earl Morris, was beaten down, Gauss's mood suddenly changed. The disappearance of the enemy made him feel that there was no need to send his beloved granddaughter into the officialdom as a tool and suffered a lifetime of torture. If it weren't for His Majesty's proposal, he might have changed his original inheritance plan and chose to let Ferner fall in love freely and live his life as an ordinary woman. Of course...
It's too late to say anything now
Grandpa, are you okay?
The sad face on grandfather's face made Ferner a little worried, was it his negative emotions that affected him?
For Firner, what she feared most since childhood was not the way her grandfather was angry, but the way he sighed
Nothing, I think it will be difficult to meet after you get married, and grandpa will be sad.
Don't say that, I will definitely visit you often in the future
Haha, it's Ah, grandpa knows Firner will definitely
Gauss touched his granddaughter's head while pretending to smile. Both of them knew that this was just comforting each other. After entering the palace, the chances of meeting were very few. At Gauss' age, I don't know how many times he could meet before his death. However, there are still a few months before the real wedding, so there is no need to be so sad tonight.
Where are mom, dad and brother?
Alas...Don't mention your dad, I have a headache. He and your brother were pulled over to drink by that group of people just now. Ninian was worried, so she followed him
If my mother follows, it will be fine and she can control her father. Are they still angry about Alvin's affairs?
Firner remembered that since he secretly returned Alvin to Ed, his father and brother have been angry with him.
Humph! Two unpromising things were killed by a child fan. It would be better if Alvin left, so they saved them from being like soulless all day long.
Then grandpa, don’t you miss him anymore?
This... I don't want to say that it's too fake, hey... Alvin is indeed a good kid. Ah, I serve tea and water to clean and tidy up, work more diligent than those slaves. When I'm tired, I know that I'll take the initiative to hammer my back. I'm so pretty. If he were my grandson, it would be great. Not to mention anything else, at least I can feel better than your brother.
In the past two years since Alvin was there, Gauss really treated him like a grandson or granddaughter. It was precisely this way that he accepted the fact that Alvin left later. After all, the little guy was willing to return to his life-savior, which was the best choice for him, otherwise he would be reluctant to let him go.
By the way, do you still don’t want to tell grandpa who was the one who took Alvin away?
Sorry, this is the only thing I don't want to say
Firner never told his family about Ed. Her mother Ninian also promised her daughter not to tell her in front of her family. Gauss still spoiled her granddaughter in this regard. Since she didn't want to say that she wouldn't force herself, she was just curious about what kind of person the other party was.
Afterwards, several older nobles came to talk to Gauss about political affairs. Firner was not convenient to participate, so he left after the salute.
At this time, it was getting closer and closer to the official opening of the evening party, and there were more and more people in the hall. However, a highlight suddenly appeared in the entire hall that attracted everyone. A man wearing a long sword and a military uniform appeared at the evening party as if nothing had happened, and he felt great disharmony with the nobles dressed in dresses around him.
But just carrying a weapon on his back is not enough to attract so many people's gazes, or almost all women's gazes, the key is that face. Even Ferner was shocked by the beauty of that man. If it weren't for his clothing and figure, he would even regard him as a woman. But for some reason, that handsome face always had a smile that could be said to be evil. The feeling that Ferner was very familiar with...
right!
Ed, that smile is the same as Ed, as if he is disdainful to everyone.
After the man glanced at him, all the ladies blushed and gradually began to gather around him. However, because everyone did not know him, no one dared to go up and chat with him first, and the men seemed to be ashamed and lowered their heads and tried to stay away as much as possible.
It is impossible for people to come in with weapons at the party, but the appearance of this person obviously broke this common sense. The crowd began to discuss, but the women were discussing his appearance, while the men were talking about his origin.
Sure enough, at this time, the guards in the hall came to surround him. Who are you? You actually brought your weapons into the palace privately!
The guards shouted this sentence and felt a little guilty. It would be possible to appear here to mean that this person came in through layers of guards outside. There are only two possibilities. If it weren't for a special background or with extremely strong strength, most of the guards would hope that it was the former at this time, otherwise the trouble would be great.
But the man didn't answer anything, just looking around as if he was looking for someone. Just when the situation was deadlocked, the savior finally came.
What no one expected was that Fernande, the commander of the first army of the Guards, actually ran over to relieve the mysterious man. Lars, you are here, Ah, I'm still waiting for you at the door.
The handsome man, known as Lars, finally spoke after seeing Fernande. The guards at the door were too many and useless. I thought it wasted time, so I came in by myself. Alas... the air in the imperial capital was too turbid. Hurry up and finish the guard work tonight and I can go back to the fortress.
Others may not understand it, but Ferner immediately realized that this person was the guard Fernande invited from the steel wall fortress.
The situation afterwards was very simple. The guards heard that the people who came from the fortress dared not take care of them. They all returned to their posts. The nobles also discussed it without a word, but no one dared to get close, leaving Lars and Fernande to reminisce.
Firner also doesn't want to go over and cause trouble for the time being. Because of Ed, she always has an inexplicable feeling about the people who came out of the fortress. Thinking that she had asked to serve there, she really thanked her grandfather for being able to stop her at that time.
At this moment, another cry came from the door of the hall. Looking at it, it turned out that Miss Helena and Paladin Pat were invited tonight. Although the announcement of the Saint Women's election decision in advance made Helena's identity decline, it still could not conceal her own glory. Besides, even if she could not become a Saint, her status was bishop-level. It is absolutely sufficient to bless her at this engagement ceremony.
Firner originally wanted to say hello, but there were too many people around Helena and the others, so he had to look at the tired friend with sympathy.
It happened that the young girls next to them were talking about something. The words seemed to include her and Helena's names. They just happened to be seen by them. Bored, she decided to listen to what the girls were saying...
Ah...Every time I see Miss Helena, I will wonder why the goddess is so unfair and create such a perfect person.
I admit it, stop talking about us, look at Miss Nina from the West family. She is one of the most famous socialites in the capital. Now she is still obediently staying next to her head and dare not raise her head.
I heard from the man at home that since Helena came to the capital, there is no need to think about the first place in the beauty rankings. Everyone is arguing about who will be after the second place.
If I hadn't seen her stay in the church every day, I really doubted whether she had become a succubus. Is her figure and appearance really human?
Alas... Stop talking, the more I talk, the more sad I feel. The girls of our generation are also unlucky. There was a Miss Firner and the Fourth Princess who had already sucked the boys' eyes. Later, another saint came. The perverts gathered together all day to discuss these things. In their eyes, we all seem to be women.
But there are more than these, now there seems to be more. I heard from my brother about the top ten beauties last time, and it seems that there is another mysterious female slave with black hair inside. It is said that it has also attracted many men's souls.
Oh! I remembered it too. The men in my family have also said that last time my second brother went to the slave auction of the elf succubus and said that he had seen it. It was the rarest pure black hair color, and he looked so beautiful that he stole a lot of limelight.
Hearing this, Firner suddenly thought of something, pure black hair...
Isn’t that little female slave next to Ed? Is it her they are talking about?
But when I saw her two years ago, I remember that I was not too beautiful, this...
At least not as good as myself
She was suddenly shocked by her thoughts. How could she have a comparison with Ed's little slave? Besides, it wasn't necessarily the female slave. She seemed to be a little nervous. Thinking of this, she found that as long as it was something related to Ed, she would always be very confused.
But at this moment, a girl said something that surprised everyone, that... the black-haired slave you are talking about is the Ah next to Miss Helena...
Everyone looked at Helena. Sure enough, a beautiful brunette girl wearing a collar and a maid outfit was talking to Helena, and seemed very happy.
A former saint candidate and a female slave. Their hair and clothes are completely opposite in color, and their identities are far different, but they also have the beauty that makes all women jealous and chat like sisters. This scene undoubtedly attracted everyone. The men almost looked at the two beauties with the eyes of appreciating a perfect work of art.
But at this time, only Ferner noticed the man next to him. Although he changed his military uniform and specially tidied up his appearance, the man next to the female slave was obviously Ed. Judging from the two knives he was wearing at his waist, he probably came to help Fernande protect the party.
So, that female slave is really the girl Ed originally brought with him?
Although the girl is so beautiful, she is so familiar with Helena?
Thinking of this, Firner suddenly remembered that Helena had told herself before that there was another good-looking young sister who was a female slave. Is it just so coincidental that it was her...
For some reason, Firner didn't want to meet them at this time, and always felt a little embarrassed, but things went against their wishes. Another familiar voice called her from there...
Miss Firner? Master! It's Miss Firner, where are you
The voice was from Alvin. It turned out that he had been blocked in Ed's side position just now, and he saw it. There was no way, everyone looked at him, and Firner had to bite the bullet and walk into the group of people...
Master... Your clothes are...
At this time, Ed was wearing a very handsome dress that he had never worn before, and his hair was combed. It turned out that the slightly sloppy image disappeared in an instant. Not to mention Alvin, even Elise had never seen Ed as stylish as such
Oh, you two have prepared Ah. This dress is my original military uniform. At least I have to go to the palace and wear it more formally. Do you think this is OK?
Well... it looks very good, but... I'm a little uncomfortable
Of course, Elise said this with a hint of uneasiness. Her master dressed so well, wouldn’t she be trying to seduce any noble lady?
Anyway, it's only one day, so if you don't get used to it, just get on the boat and get ready to set off
The two little beauties went out talking and laughing. Although they both had their own concerns, they were accompanying Ed to attend the party, and they were still looking forward to it.
Ed took out the two knives he had before, took them to his waist, and then got on the boat.
Judging from the sky, it was almost dusk. It was almost the same if you set off now, so the boat left the shore again and headed towards the city area.

Gauss originally planned to find a man with excellent conditions to marry into a law when Firner was about the same age, and then pass the position of the head of the family directly to the granddaughter, so that he could retire with peace of mind. However, he never expected that Firner would save the second prince in that assassination conspiracy two years ago, and he fell in love with His Majesty. In the past two years, he said every now and then that Firner would marry into the palace as a prince's concubine, but he had no choice. His Majesty's persuasion was actually equivalent to an order. Thinking about the granddaughter was not young, this matter was settled.
Being able to marry into the royal family is a desperate thing for most nobles, but for Gauss, he was not so happy. After the Cleveland family's biggest political enemy, Earl Morris, was beaten down, Gauss's mood suddenly changed. The disappearance of the enemy made him feel that there was no need to send his beloved granddaughter into the officialdom as a tool and suffered a lifetime of torture. If it weren't for His Majesty's proposal, he might have changed his original inheritance plan and chose to let Ferner fall in love freely and live his life as an ordinary woman. Of course...
It's too late to say anything now
Grandpa, are you okay?
The sad face on grandfather's face made Ferner a little worried, was it his negative emotions that affected him?
For Firner, what she feared most since childhood was not the way her grandfather was angry, but the way he sighed
Nothing, I think it will be difficult to meet after you get married, and grandpa will be sad.
Don't say that, I will definitely visit you often in the future
Haha, it's Ah, grandpa knows Firner will definitely
Gauss touched his granddaughter's head while pretending to smile. Both of them knew that this was just comforting each other. After entering the palace, the chances of meeting were very few. At Gauss' age, I don't know how many times he could meet before his death. However, there are still a few months before the real wedding, so there is no need to be so sad tonight.
Where are mom, dad and brother?
Alas...Don't mention your dad, I have a headache. He and your brother were pulled over to drink by that group of people just now. Ninian was worried, so she followed him
If my mother follows, it will be fine and she can control her father. Are they still angry about Alvin's affairs?
Firner remembered that since he secretly returned Alvin to Ed, his father and brother have been angry with him.
Humph! Two unpromising things were killed by a child fan. It would be better if Alvin left, so they saved them from being like soulless all day long.
Then grandpa, don’t you miss him anymore?
This... I don't want to say that it's too fake, hey... Alvin is indeed a good kid. Ah, I serve tea and water to clean and tidy up, work more diligent than those slaves. When I'm tired, I know that I'll take the initiative to hammer my back. I'm so pretty. If he were my grandson, it would be great. Not to mention anything else, at least I can feel better than your brother.
In the past two years since Alvin was there, Gauss really treated him like a grandson or granddaughter. It was precisely this way that he accepted the fact that Alvin left later. After all, the little guy was willing to return to his life-savior, which was the best choice for him, otherwise he would be reluctant to let him go.
By the way, do you still don’t want to tell grandpa who was the one who took Alvin away?
Sorry, this is the only thing I don't want to say
Firner never told his family about Ed. Her mother Ninian also promised her daughter not to tell her in front of her family. Gauss still spoiled her granddaughter in this regard. Since she didn't want to say that she wouldn't force herself, she was just curious about what kind of person the other party was.
Afterwards, several older nobles came to talk to Gauss about political affairs. Firner was not convenient to participate, so he left after the salute.
At this time, it was getting closer and closer to the official opening of the evening party, and there were more and more people in the hall. However, a highlight suddenly appeared in the entire hall that attracted everyone. A man wearing a long sword and a military uniform appeared at the evening party as if nothing had happened, and he felt great disharmony with the nobles dressed in dresses around him.
But just carrying a weapon on his back is not enough to attract so many people's gazes, or almost all women's gazes, the key is that face. Even Ferner was shocked by the beauty of that man. If it weren't for his clothing and figure, he would even regard him as a woman. But for some reason, that handsome face always had a smile that could be said to be evil. The feeling that Ferner was very familiar with...
right!
Ed, that smile is the same as Ed, as if he is disdainful to everyone.
After the man glanced at him, all the ladies blushed and gradually began to gather around him. However, because everyone did not know him, no one dared to go up and chat with him first, and the men seemed to be ashamed and lowered their heads and tried to stay away as much as possible.
It is impossible for people to come in with weapons at the party, but the appearance of this person obviously broke this common sense. The crowd began to discuss, but the women were discussing his appearance, while the men were talking about his origin.
Sure enough, at this time, the guards in the hall came to surround him. Who are you? You actually brought your weapons into the palace privately!
The guards shouted this sentence and felt a little guilty. It would be possible to appear here to mean that this person came in through layers of guards outside. There are only two possibilities. If it weren't for a special background or with extremely strong strength, most of the guards would hope that it was the former at this time, otherwise the trouble would be great.
But the man didn't answer anything, just looking around as if he was looking for someone. Just when the situation was deadlocked, the savior finally came.
What no one expected was that Fernande, the commander of the first army of the Guards, actually ran over to relieve the mysterious man. Lars, you are here, Ah, I'm still waiting for you at the door.
The handsome man, known as Lars, finally spoke after seeing Fernande. The guards at the door were too many and useless. I thought it wasted time, so I came in by myself. Alas... the air in the imperial capital was too turbid. Hurry up and finish the guard work tonight and I can go back to the fortress.
Others may not understand it, but Ferner immediately realized that this person was the guard Fernande invited from the steel wall fortress.
The situation afterwards was very simple. The guards heard that the people who came from the fortress dared not take care of them. They all returned to their posts. The nobles also discussed it without a word, but no one dared to get close, leaving Lars and Fernande to reminisce.
Firner also doesn't want to go over and cause trouble for the time being. Because of Ed, she always has an inexplicable feeling about the people who came out of the fortress. Thinking that she had asked to serve there, she really thanked her grandfather for being able to stop her at that time.
At this moment, another cry came from the door of the hall. Looking at it, it turned out that Miss Helena and Paladin Pat were invited tonight. Although the announcement of the Saint Women's election decision in advance made Helena's identity decline, it still could not conceal her own glory. Besides, even if she could not become a Saint, her status was bishop-level. It is absolutely sufficient to bless her at this engagement ceremony.
Firner originally wanted to say hello, but there were too many people around Helena and the others, so he had to look at the tired friend with sympathy.
It happened that the young girls next to them were talking about something. The words seemed to include her and Helena's names. They just happened to be seen by them. Bored, she decided to listen to what the girls were saying...
Ah...Every time I see Miss Helena, I will wonder why the goddess is so unfair and create such a perfect person.
I admit it, stop talking about us, look at Miss Nina from the West family. She is one of the most famous socialites in the capital. Now she is still obediently staying next to her head and dare not raise her head.
I heard from the man at home that since Helena came to the capital, there is no need to think about the first place in the beauty rankings. Everyone is arguing about who will be after the second place.
If I hadn't seen her stay in the church every day, I really doubted whether she had become a succubus. Is her figure and appearance really human?
Alas... Stop talking, the more I talk, the more sad I feel. The girls of our generation are also unlucky. There was a Miss Firner and the Fourth Princess who had already sucked the boys' eyes. Later, another saint came. The perverts gathered together all day to discuss these things. In their eyes, we all seem to be women.
But there are more than these, now there seems to be more. I heard from my brother about the top ten beauties last time, and it seems that there is another mysterious female slave with black hair inside. It is said that it has also attracted many men's souls.
Oh! I remembered it too. The men in my family have also said that last time my second brother went to the slave auction of the elf succubus and said that he had seen it. It was the rarest pure black hair color, and he looked so beautiful that he stole a lot of limelight.
Hearing this, Firner suddenly thought of something, pure black hair...
Isn’t that little female slave next to Ed? Is it her they are talking about?
But when I saw her two years ago, I remember that I was not too beautiful, this...
At least not as good as myself
She was suddenly shocked by her thoughts. How could she have a comparison with Ed's little slave? Besides, it wasn't necessarily the female slave. She seemed to be a little nervous. Thinking of this, she found that as long as it was something related to Ed, she would always be very confused.
But at this moment, a girl said something that surprised everyone, that... the black-haired slave you are talking about is the Ah next to Miss Helena...
Everyone looked at Helena. Sure enough, a beautiful brunette girl wearing a collar and a maid outfit was talking to Helena, and seemed very happy.
A former saint candidate and a female slave. Their hair and clothes are completely opposite in color, and their identities are far different, but they also have the beauty that makes all women jealous and chat like sisters. This scene undoubtedly attracted everyone. The men almost looked at the two beauties with the eyes of appreciating a perfect work of art.
But at this time, only Ferner noticed the man next to him. Although he changed his military uniform and specially tidied up his appearance, the man next to the female slave was obviously Ed. Judging from the two knives he was wearing at his waist, he probably came to help Fernande protect the party.
So, that female slave is really the girl Ed originally brought with him?
Although the girl is so beautiful, she is so familiar with Helena?
Thinking of this, Firner suddenly remembered that Helena had told herself before that there was another good-looking young sister who was a female slave. Is it just so coincidental that it was her...
For some reason, Firner didn't want to meet them at this time, and always felt a little embarrassed, but things went against their wishes. Another familiar voice called her from there...
Miss Firner? Master! It's Miss Firner, where are you
The voice was from Alvin. It turned out that he had been blocked in Ed's side position just now, and he saw it. There was no way, everyone looked at him, and Firner had to bite the bullet and walk into the group of people...
