She Is Not a Witch - Vol 3 Chapter 44
“Get out of the way, Fenbul. I think your behavior has bothered this eldest lady.”
Just as Lorrain Hill was hesitating how to refuse, a slightly taller, sturdy young man walked over and looked at the uniform and badge on his body. This seemed to be a newly promoted military nobleman.
“Sorry to interrupt. Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jihasen, a member of the Salamander Hussar Group.” His voice was particularly rough and loud among the surrounding nobles.
“It’s a great honor to know Miss Lacey. The moment you entered the hall, I was conquered by your beauty. Please allow me to be your most loyal suitor.” He ignored the gameplay among the nobles in the past and declared himself directly Love thoughts.
This way of playing the straight ball suddenly calmed down the melancholy young noble youths just now, and made them feel a little confused for a while.
Hearing such an open and honest declaration of pursuit, Lorrain Hill was also somewhat inexperienced and hesitated for several seconds.
“This… Suddenly, I haven’t thought of love or marriage yet.”
“I understand that a moonlike existence like you really has to be carefully chosen. But this does not hinder my passionate love. He will wait here sincerely and patiently until the moment you lean over and look at each other.”
Originally, some of the pleasing behaviors of pursuing the opposite **** are easy to be despised, but when he speaks so upright and honestly, it becomes tall and powerful.
“Jihasen, you!” The aristocratic youths who came to the side were a little angry at this scene.
Teenagers are the age who cares about face the most, but they are robbed of the limelight in this kind of scene. Isn’t this slap them in the face in person? If you don’t get it back today, I’m afraid it will become a joke in the aristocratic circle tomorrow.
“How can you do this…. I don’t know how to do this. You are embarrassed and embarrassed by Miss Lacey. You are simply too rude.” Their faces flushed red, and they made a few awkward reprimands.
“Oh, I just express my heart, what’s wrong? One didn’t force others, two didn’t make any tricks, what’s wrong with being honest and generous? I think your hypocritical style is strange, it seems that everyone has to encircle you. It’s just like taking care of you. Are you unweaned babies?”
“Glitter~” After finishing these words, many noble ladies laughed around.
This time, these aristocrats with artistic youth temperament could no longer bear it, and pointed their fingers at the aristocratic officer with strong physique, and said all kinds of rebuttal and derogatory remarks. What aristocratic elegance, gradual progress, pure spirit intertwined, etc., Jihasen is an extremely rude person, and can’t understand it at all.
Although these words are logical, they are not very lethal, and in the eyes of that Gihasen, they are no different from the noisy duck. He also shrugged his shoulders as if he didn’t care and didn’t understand, which made the behavior of these people even more ridiculous.
Stabbed—
The sound of drawing a sword suddenly sounded, and then a person poured the wine in his hand on Jihasen, which was a way of expressing a duel among the nobles.
“Hey…are you going to fight me?” Jihasen wiped off the wet drinks on his body with his hands, and looked at the opposite with disdain.
“Of course, I bet on my reputation to fight you. If you lose, you have to get away from Miss Lacey.” The young man greeted Lorrain Hill and invited the young dancing man to hold the sword in both hands and face Gherson. Speak your own declaration.
“This… please calm down, everyone.” Lorrain Hill just wanted to cover his forehead at this time, and the situation became like this for a short while. If this matter spreads to the outside world, it seems like she is provoking a duel between the two sides, how could they draw their swords so easily.
“Sorry to disturb Miss Lacey, but this time I forgive me for going against your wishes, because I need to maintain my qualifications to pursue you. This is also a matter of my dignity and glory.” He bent over to salute again and said a few words before turning to look at the melancholy young nobles.
Seeing that Jihasen brushed up his favors and personalities in front of Lorrain Hill again, the lungs of the people on the opposite side were about to explode, how could he be so shameless. But at this moment, the beautiful woman is in front, once you lose the demeanor, everything is meaningless. They had to act quickly, ready to use a duel to shut up the mad guy.
“It’s so beautiful to be young.” Earl Howard took a sip from his glass and sighed slightly.
“Don’t you stop them?” Lorrain Hill asked slightly puzzled.
“Of course not, because this is the power of the nobles, who can initiate a duel against those who challenge their reputation and glory.” Howard explained.
“If I’m ten years younger, I think I will draw the sword for a beautiful young lady like you. This is the romance of life.” He expressed his admiration and love for this girl in a joking tone.
“My lord, I like it.” Lorrain Hill had no choice but to give up.
Soon, the middle of the dance floor was cleared to free up a space, and the guests gathered around excitedly, looking at the two people preparing in the middle.
“I didn’t expect to see such a play today. I haven’t seen a duel for months.”
“Isn’t it because of the blockade and cleanup, hey, forget it, let’s not mention these sad things.”
“Who do you think will win?”
“I think it is Viscount Jihassen. He is a nobleman of military merit. He is currently the deputy commander of the Salamander Hussar regiment. The strength of his family has been tested step by step on the battlefield.”
“But Fenbul is not bad. Now he has the strength of Sequence 5. Looking at a group of companions around him, they are helping him to collect heirlooms. With the blessing of luxurious equipment, he may not lose to Jihasen.”
“No matter how good the equipment is, it depends on people’s use. I still think Gherson has a big win.”
“Should we bet something?”
“How about three bottles of wine from Zixun Manor.”
“Yes, the total price is 100 gold coins, which is not too much.”
Amidst other people’s discussions, the two in the middle also finished their preparations one after another, and each drew out their swords and stood far away from each other.
At first, Lorrain Hill was a little apologetic, feeling that her actions had caused this duel to happen intentionally or unintentionally, but after several attempts to dissuade her to no avail, she also gave up this idea, and then focused on the observation banquet. Various opinions and ideas.
If the nobles are so obsessed with pleasure and beauty, then this country is not far from decline.
Lorrain Hill extended his perception, receiving and analyzing more information, looking for valuable parts.
“These hillbillies are too rampant…..Hmph, that majesty is no longer there, and he jumped like this, I really thought we couldn’t beat it.” In a corner, UU reading www.uukanshu.com’s subtle voices were noisy. Into Lorrain Hill’s ears.
“Before it was for wooing and resolving domestic riots. Now there is no such thing as a second westward march. I think their good days are over. Sooner or later the four princes will take care of these people, wait.”
“The glory of the empire always belongs to us, and it is the hard work of our generations to support this huge country. Those people just survived by chance, so why sit on our heads…”
This small voice circulated among several luxuriously dressed nobles, and the coat of arms on their collars all belonged to the old family in the empire.
Is this the difference and opposition between the old and the new aristocracy? Lorrain Hill lowered his head slightly, analyzing the conversations of several people in his mind, and slowly concluding their identities.
Finally, according to the noisy words of these nobles, the voice of the whole hall was slowly divided into two parties. On one side belonged to the descendants of the original great nobles of the empire, and the other was small nobles or civilians who depended mostly on military merits.
After the emperor passed away, there was no one to reconcile and balance the two sides, and the cracks began to widen and slowly revealed.
“Then the duel begins!”
