Chapter 42: "madness"
In the banquet hall, Meren's words kept ringing, and because of the extremely quiet surrounding environment, these voices even echoed in the hall one after another.
The previous excitement had made him the focus of the party, so at this moment, everyone present was listening to the "explosive" news from Mellen's mouth—
It's not just limited to Kevin holding this banquet, but specifically looking for him to trouble him.
There is also the foolish act of Kevin who would rather spend "huge" money in order to invite him.
After the initial consternation, the attitude of the young wizards onlookers was very mixed.
On the one hand, based on the background of Kevin's top family, the "common class" among the pure-blood wizards felt inexplicably gloating when they heard the news.
On the other hand, Meren is just a half-blood wizard who has "played" a top pure-blood to such an extent—
Not only did Kevin play around in circles, but also exposed him in such a large audience...
This stimulated the self-esteem of all the pure-bloods present, and made them feel a sense of common enemy.
Even some of the good-hearted people who had helped Melen speak before, now looked at Melun with a hint of hostility.
Outsiders have such a mentality, of course, Kevin, who is the party, can't feel well.
However, apart from the change in his face at the beginning, he has always been very calm.
While standing on the second floor and listening quietly, his expression was always indifferent.
But in those brown eyes, anger was rapidly accumulating.
Kevin thinks he's polite enough to this bastard—no, this guy who seems to be a bastard.
He tried his best to trouble him, and even willingly took out a large amount of pocket money, just to save his life.
During this period, he often told his friends to make plans not to be extravagant.
However, what is this **** doing?
In public, to provoke him like this...
Does he really have no temper at all? !
"This guy is too much!"
Jim beside him was also indignant at this.
But seeing his friend's seemingly calm, in fact about to explode with rage, Jim felt inexplicably dark in his heart.
"I told you to look down on this and that all day long. It's okay now, being humiliated to such a degree by a lowly half-blood..."
This kind of gloating thought flashed through his mind, but on the surface, he said gloomily:
"Don't think about it. Let's just forget about it. There are too many people now, and we can't do anything. When the banquet is over, I will help you out of this bad breath!"
"Need not."
At this time, Mellon in the hall had finished talking about Kevin's willingness to wait for an afternoon in order to get him in the game last night, and in the end he was too hungry to eat and drink with them.
He was about to start talking about the last time he used ordinary magic means to get the magic pocket on Kevin's body.
When Kevin, who was the client, heard this, he laughed instead.
"I don't care about this."
He said to his friend, "I will tell my father exactly what happened. Then, whether the illegitimate child lives or dies, it all depends on his luck."
"that's it?"
Jim frowned when he heard the words, "If your father just taught him a lesson, wouldn't it be too cheap for him?"
"You underestimate my father's temper too much."
Kevin chuckled and said, "He's a person who doesn't care about anything when he gets angry, especially when it comes to this kind of thing. Otherwise, do you think I'm just worrying in vain?"
"But what if we misunderstood the bastard? If he has nothing to do with your mother..."
Jim pointedly said: "Your father may not care about his small role."
"If so."
Kevin said lightly: "What else do I care about?"
…
Not everyone was "indignant" at Mellen's words at this time.
In fact, when Mellon suddenly stood up and told the reason for the start of the banquet, the "waiter" in the dark was startled and overjoyed.
"We can't ask this group of pure blood to humiliate him again, but if he humiliates this group of pure blood, he can achieve his goal."
He said to his subordinates: "When he finishes speaking, if the atmosphere here is not tepid, you can send someone to pretend to be another half-blood and continue to talk about the scandals of some of the pure-blooded elders here. Including how they play with ordinary people. matter."
"It's better to make them angry and take the initiative, so that our plan will be more perfect."
"However, will this attract those masters from Graham City?" the subordinate asked worriedly.
The banquet at Ernest Manor is a place full of "stench" in the eyes of the city's upper class, so normally they don't pay attention to it at all.
Even the original hostess of the place hid in advance.
But if a group of mixed-bloods did suddenly appear here to humiliate the purebloods around, then those masters are likely to attract attention, and then hinder their subsequent attacks.
Although they will inevitably attract attention when they start to attack in the end, but the time nodes of the two are different, and the effects will be completely different—
Their ultimate goal is to cause as many casualties as possible.
"Do you think our people sneaked in here in advance, just for the last raid?"
The waiter said with a smile: "When the duel was over, our people had already arranged the spirit-forbidding ceremony."
Hearing this, his subordinates immediately felt relieved.
The so-called banning ceremony, as the name suggests, is a special "enchantment" that prohibits the spread of all spiritual power within the scope.
The layout of this enchantment is very troublesome, and it needs to take into account the layout of the current building and external factors such as the weather environment.
But as long as the arrangement is successful, the wizards within the seventh floor will not want to pass the news.
Although this manor is the sphere of influence of the Ernest family, the Ernest family is not a top family.
It can even be said that they are only a medium-sized family under the Chelsea family, but in recent years, there have been several characters, so they are a bit special.
There may be many guards in the family, but there are not many wizards who have reached the seventh floor - let alone a gathering of young people.
Therefore, they only need to keep an eye on Mr. Ernest, who likes to wear women's clothes and plays cards out of common sense, and the others have nothing to worry about.
"Even if the news spreads out, the people we follow can pass the information on in time. This time is enough for us to respond."
…
When the waiter said this, he didn't know that there was an inconspicuous figure in the banquet hall, who was looking thoughtfully at Mellen, who was laughing loudly at someone in the crowd.
"Madam said, this little guy is a smart person who is smart and confident but knows how to judge the situation... How could he suddenly become so impulsive?"
He thought this was very strange.
Because as long as you have a brain, you can see that now he is happy to mock someone for a while, but it will bring him endless trouble later.
Although he was protected by his wife, this kind of trouble would not affect his safety, but Kevin on the other side was the son-in-law that his wife valued more.
Mellen wants to get out of this matter, I'm afraid it's a dream...
And even if you don't think about it, as Mrs.'s apprentice, this guy Mellon is slamming the future son-in-law of the Chelsea family. This kind of thing is taboo.
Even though Merron has shown his excellent talent... But in the eyes of those big men, what is this?
Does this kid really think that as long as he shows his talent, he can sit back and relax, or is there another purpose?
All kinds of thoughts flipped in my mind, and the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became.
So when a group of waiters were paying close attention to Merron on the bright side.
The protector, who was in the dark and full of doubts, walked quietly to the corner of the hall.
Then he took out the book of secret words, and passed everything that happened at the banquet to Mrs. Chelsea without hindrance.
