Chapter 782: His Majesty's Banquet
Although they have different beliefs and governing ideas, most of the nobles in Backlund can coexist peacefully, so it is normal for Earl Hall to appear at the dinner with Duke Ni and Duke.
But being able to invite the archbishops of the three major churches to a dinner at the same time is not something the new Duke of Negan can do, and it is difficult even for the old Duke who once held a high position.
At a dinner party of this size, Horamick actually planned to introduce himself to the second and fifth sons of the "Church of Storms", he must be a little too bold!
Is it really dark under the lights? The most dangerous place is the safest?
Full of doubts, she exchanged glances with Horamick. The latter didn't make any obvious expressions, and Louise felt relieved for the time being. After all, the banquet hadn't officially started yet, and what she was going to do was unseemly. Light, of course, can't seem too eager, otherwise it will be even more suspicious.
So, she walked towards Miss Justice, and Audrey also noticed Louise's figure, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she happily said a few words to Earl Hall beside her.
Earl Hall was chatting with the Archbishop of St. Anthony. Hearing his daughter's request, he couldn't help looking in Louise's direction, hesitating for half a second, as if recalling the identity of this person.
As a result, Archbishop St. Anthony on the opposite side took the initiative to introduce:
"That's Miss Louise, who is also a devout follower of a goddess."
It seemed a bit unexpected, but with the endorsement of the archbishop, Earl Hall naturally would not raise any doubts on the surface, and then smiled and agreed to his daughter's request.
With a sweet reply, Audrey took the initiative to greet Louise in the direction she was walking.
"Why are you here?" Audrey asked in surprise.
Louise smiled and responded to the gazes cast by St. Anthony and Earl Hall, and then looked at Audrey in front of her, and replied easily:
"Of course it's because I was invited by the host of the banquet!"
Audrey was stunned for a moment. She was one of the few people who knew that Louise had killed Duke Negan, and Louise had just returned to Backlund not long ago, so how could she establish a relationship with the new Duke Negan so quickly? friendship?
Could it be that her real purpose is to kill the current Mr. Duke?
This terrible guess suddenly appeared in her head, Audrey's pupils shrank slightly, and there was a little more shock in the eyes she looked at Louise.
Although I don't know what Miss Justice is thinking, but it must be something bad. Louise smiled, raised her head gracefully, and said:
"I am now a devout follower of the 'Goddess of the Night', a law-abiding good person."
Audrey really wanted to roll her eyes, but she was stopped by the etiquette habits formed for a long time, and since Louise had already made a promise, she was relieved.
After all, everyone in the "Tarot Society" knew that Miss "Power" never lied.
On the contrary, Louise then added another sentence: "The three demigod archbishops are all at the banquet at this time, how dare I be presumptuous!"
These words seem to be emphasizing that she will not cause trouble, but as a senior "spectator", Audrey easily understood the deep meaning of Louise's words, tilted her head slightly, and asked curiously:
"Don't you know the real purpose of this banquet?"
Louise smiled, secretly thinking that the banquet tonight was really not easy, she shook her head, then raised her right hand, expressing that she would like to hear about it.
"Although the host of tonight's banquet is Duke Negan, the person who actually instigated this banquet is His Majesty the Emperor."
Audrey did not hide anything, and whispered the truth about the banquet: "His Majesty the Emperor will appear at the banquet tonight."
Louise was surprised at first, and then nodded secretly, which made sense, otherwise, how could such a big battle be invited just because of the face of a young Duke Negan!
But she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled in her heart. The dinner party where George III was going to appear was naturally very tightly guarded. Why would Horamick choose such an untimely opportunity?
No way, the second and fifth sons of the "Church of Storms" that the Archbishop wants to introduce are His Majesty the Emperor of Loen, right?
Amused by her absurd idea, Louise suddenly raised the wine glass in her hand, took a sip with Audrey, and asked curiously:
"Does George III often attend banquets?"
Audrey shook her head: "Rarely, His Majesty the Emperor seldom appears in the public eye, and the number of times he attends the banquet in person is even rarer, that's why tonight is so lively."
That's right! George III had already waited until the final sprint stage of being promoted to "Dark Emperor". Of course, it was impossible to show his face often, and it was even doubtful whether the emperor at this time was still George III himself!
But in this situation, George III suddenly ordered the largest nobleman, Duke Negan, to host tonight's banquet and come here in person. Is there a deeper purpose?
Louise pondered for a moment, then tentatively asked:
"Did you receive the banquet invitation at a normal time?"
Audrey nodded slightly first, and said softly: "It's normal, His Majesty's itinerary rarely changes."
After finishing the answer, Miss "Justice" keenly sensed that something was wrong with Louise, and asked a little nervously:
"Is there anything unusual about tonight's banquet?"
Audrey had already known the information that Augustus was an ancient angel family, so of course she didn't feel any crisis erupted at the dinner party attended by His Majesty the Emperor in person, but Louise was never a target person, entangled with each other Suddenly, Miss Justice became a little confused.
From Louise's point of view, George III, who had always lived reclusively, suddenly held a banquet, especially at the time when the four kings of angels gathered in Backlund, she couldn't help but have extra associations.
But this information cannot be told to Miss Justice, at least not at this moment, so Louise can only laugh it off and simply respond:
"It's nothing, it's just that I, as a Loenian, have never met George III, so I am a little curious about our emperor."
Audrey naturally heard the perfunctory in the words, but she didn't continue to ask, and just whispered:
"Because of the appearance of His Majesty the Emperor, the guard specifications for tonight's banquet have been raised to the highest level."
Louise couldn't help laughing, but she also felt Miss "Justice"'s love, and then solemnly repeated:
"I'm a good, law-abiding person."
What's more, George III is one step away from trying to be promoted to "Dark Emperor". How dare I mess with him!
At this moment, the banquet hall suddenly fell silent, and the normally high-ranking nobles and ministers retreated one after another and made way for a group of people to walk to the center of the hall calmly.
Audrey turned sideways slightly, and whispered in Louise's ear:
"The one who walks in the front is His Majesty the Emperor."
