Chapter 43: Memories of Edtelis
With the entrance of Imrik and Adira, the banquet finally started.
Standing on the main stage of the banquet hall, Imrik raised his glass and was ready to say something.
The other Dragon Princes who were communicating with each other about the spoils obtained during the Twilight Tide also stopped communicating and turned to look at the Dragon Prince.
"I am very happy that you can take time out of your busy schedule to attend this banquet held by the Dragon Palace to welcome Princess Adira. First of all, I would like to pay tribute to this elegant and decent lady, and wish her face will always be as bright and beautiful as the moonlight of Lilith. ."
Adila didn't react for a while. Are you sure the person standing on the stage is Imrik, who looked arrogant before? How come he seems like a different person, and he still knows how to toast and give speeches.
Just when she was in a daze, the female companion next to her gently pulled her, reacted immediately, raised her wine glass, "Thank you to the Dragon Prince for his blessing, and I also wish that the Dragon Prince's lance is as sharp as Edreze's blade. "
If this god of the Sesarayi pantheon, the patron of duelists and the Lord of Blades, Edreze, were openly mentioned in other courts, it might be regarded as disrespectful by those who are politically sensitive, and even He would be invited to tea by the Sword Master Hoss, but the dragon princes were very happy. Apart from Val, Edreeze was the god commonly believed in Caledor.
He smiled and nodded to Adira. Compared to a noble banquet, the atmosphere here was more like a celebration banquet in a military camp. Except for those who had missions and those who didn't want to come, almost all the dragon princes were invited to the scene by Imric, although this was a bit It doesn't quite fit in with my frugal style, but the value of the loot obtained from the Warcraft this time is more than enough to hold this banquet.
He didn't want to continue to stand on the stage and attract attention, so he walked down.
At this moment, a dragon prince who looked particularly handsome came over. To be honest, Imric even thought that his handsomeness was as handsome as his own. He smiled and greeted him, "Edtelis, palace The collection may still suit your taste."
High-level dragon prince Edtelis, the dragon prince who previously supported Tyron Locke with Imric.
This time he was the invited candidate and one of the highest-status people present. His family has been a supporter of the prince since the days of the dragon tamer. Every clan leader has a close relationship with the dragon lord. At that time, Im Rick also thought about taking his place in Davian's place in the Dark World, but gave up because his family was too involved.
"Of course, I heard from Manager Morris that this batch of fine wine was specially brewed by the royal winery for the celebration when the Phoenix King of Hathor came to the throne. I didn't expect that there is still one in the palace." The two chatted for a while, Ade
Tai Lys said that he wanted to send his nephew to the court to serve as a servant to Imrik. He had not remarried since his wife's death, and his nephew would be the next generation's heir.
Regarding this matter, Imrik did not hesitate and nodded directly. This is a tradition. The heirs of the Hallandur family will be sent to the palace to serve as the prince's attendants. Edtelis and his father are the former prince's attendants. Attendant, this kind of attendant is not a servant of the palace, but a fighting retinue who charges with the master on the battlefield.
"Are you interested in me going to talk to Princess Adila?"
"Of course."
The two of them went straight to Princess Adila and her female companion. To be honest, Adila looked a little surprised today. , with an elegant demeanor and a warrior's perseverance, like a gem ground into a spearhead, dazzling and sharp, he raised his eyebrows and said.
"Why don't you introduce me to the lady next to you? You must know that most of the people here have been carrying lances all day long. I am very worried about Caledo's future soldier supply." The dragons around heard this
. The princes all laughed, and the two ladies did not have stage fright. The female companion next to her first pinched the hem of her skirt and bowed in a court salute, "Dear Dragon Prince, I am Flora of the Bianchi family. This time Accompany Princess Adira to visit the Dragon Palace." He greeted her with a smile. The two ladies in front of him looked at the people next to them curiously, and when they wanted to get acquainted, they discovered that Adelais Somewhat dazed, he kicked him quietly, and he soon reacted.
"I am Ed Tyris of the Hallandur family. I am the attendant of the former Dragon Prince. I am currently stationed in Fengxiao City." The two of
them immediately knew the identity of this handsome man. The Hallandur family was in Austria. Suan is very famous and has produced many dragon princes who ride dragons. Edtelis has also accumulated a good reputation during his more than one hundred years of war career.
Princess Adtila spoke first, "It turns out to be Prince Edtairis. Thank you for your help with the Dragon Prince."
But Adtilas seemed a little distracted and didn't pay much attention to Adtila's words. Instead, he kept watching. Flora.
The Dragon Prince excused himself, pulled Edtelis aside, and asked, "What's going on? You're not usually like this." The Dragon
Prince poured a glass of wine alone, sat on the chair, and raised his head a little sadly. He turned his head and looked at the ceiling, "I seem to have seen her somewhere, just like when I saw her for the first time and it seemed to be the last time."
Imrik was a little confused after hearing this. Are you sure you are riding on a horse? On the back of the dragon, the dragon prince who fights with the strong wind roaring in the sky, instead of those lame poets in Lothern?
I thought about what happened to Ed Tellis. His wife was killed by a group of Druchi pirates during a trip to the inner ring. Even the body was not found. Then Ed Tellis rode a dragon alone and spent two years in the vast ocean. time to hunt down all Druchi ships in sight.
When he returned to Caledo, he brought back two large bags of Drucci's left ears, most of which were rotten and smelly, and he burned them in front of his deceased wife's tomb.
Frowning at the sad-looking Edtelis, coupled with his expression and words just now, "So that Flora reminds you of your deceased wife?"
After drinking the wine in the cup in one gulp, the Dragon Prince ordered He nodded, and then continued to pour another glass, as if he planned to use this wine to forget or cherish the past memories.
Imrik, on the other hand, touched his chin and thought about this matter. The Bianchi family is one of the vassal families of the Tyran Loch ruling family, Bell Keke. The family's status is not high, but it has a large mine in White Peak. The market and related construction chambers of commerce are extremely wealthy, even in Lothern, they can be ranked high.
As for the Hallandur family, in addition to being able to fight, their overall situation is similar to that of Caledor. Every year, the Dragon Palace allocates funds to them to show support, and they are simply begging for food.
From the look of Ed Tellis, it seems interesting. It would be possible to arrange a deal and let the Bianchi family provide Caledo with a negligible military expenditure, and they could also be responsible for the subsequent construction of the colony.
Imrik used all the gold he brought from the dark world and the things he extorted from various countries for development. He only had some guaranteed funds left on his hands. Now he had a victim whom he would not miss.
From the perspective of a friend, Imric also hopes that he can find a suitable partner. Although he does not know how Frona's reputation is, the reputation of the Bianchi family in Tyran Loch is not bad, and there has been no scandal. It is a good thing to combine public and private matters.
