I seemed to have really become the target of public criticism. When Nessa led me onto the dance floor, I felt at least five or six pairs of sharp gazes. Looking over his arm, I could see the deep jealousy in the eyes of the girls. Presto, who had no territory, really attracted the girls.
Is he really relying on that pretty face? Involuntarily, I thought of Fernando, that high elf who was equally handsome, but was avoided by others.
The dance music changed to a soothing tune, and he and I bowed to each other.
"Then, Lord Presto, tell me something. You see, I have become your shield."
Those words made his dark eyes filled with smiles for a moment, and he held my waist in a gentlemanly manner, "Okay, Miss Rubio, answer me first, how much do you know about the nobles of Lordaeron?" ?”
"Lordaeron nobles?" I couldn't help but be stunned, "...uh...there are many."
He couldn't hold it back and laughed, but quickly suppressed it under my glare, "Well, I mean, what you said is very accurate. There are indeed many nobles in Lordaeron, especially in Alterac. After entering the territory.”
"Then?"
"Do you know how these nobles are connected together to become more powerful?"
"...Intermarriage?"
"Yes." This time, there was finally some appreciation in his eyes. He nodded, took my hand, and asked me to turn around in a circle. With his eyes, I saw so many people, those young people. Their collars or cuffs were embroidered with all kinds of strange patterns. I knew they were family emblems.
"You see, miss, these people are more or less related by marriage. As for Barov's family, you must have heard about it, right?"
"Their family is very rich."
"Yes, their family also has a large population. After it was merged into Lordaeron, their marriage with the old nobles of Lordaeron made their roots like old tree roots, intertwined. Perhaps, Faith Bar Rolf's father was not very powerful in the Barov family, but his mother was the most favored youngest daughter of the Julius family. When they were married, it was said that the Barov family was filled with gifts. It filled the whole room. Oh!" As he spoke, he let out a cry of pain.
"Uh..." My face felt slightly hot, "Sorry."
Okay, I have to admit, I'm a terrible dancer. In this short period of time, I have stepped on Nesa three or four times. Even though he was so well-educated on the surface, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and frown, "I have to say, your dance is... The dance really... doesn't match your face." As he said that, he suddenly muttered something in a low voice. I found that I couldn't understand every syllable he said, but it was obvious that those syllables contained rich magic power. For a moment, I felt the magical world shake. Then, the cool wind wrapped around my legs, making me feel suddenly extremely light. I could jump as much as I wanted with just a tap of my toes.
Oh, this lord is actually a magician!
He hugged my waist again and whispered in my ear, "And Faith's prominent mother also has many prominent relatives, such as Lordaeron Patrol Captain - Viscount Brett Diamond, who is her brother-in-law." , and her brother Jupiter Julius is the guardian of the city defense prison..."
At this point, if I didn't understand what he wanted to express, I would be too stupid. "However, His Majesty Terenas personally assured me that Fes will receive the punishment he deserves. I am convinced that this punishment will make him Hang it at the city gate."
"Of course His Majesty Terenas is an extremely just man, but tell me, what is the punishment you deserve? Miss?"
"...Will he be released?"
"If we think of a way, he might not come out again, and those moths will disappear as well."
Those bloody words made me stunned, and the next second I stared into his whirlpool eyes, "It's not just Faith you want to kill? You...what else do you want to do?"
"They sucked the blood of the kingdom. Aren't they worthy of death? As far as I know, that Jupiter subordinate is not clean at all. He..."
"Don't tell me your secret, Lord Lord!" I tried hard to pull my hand out of his palm, but his strength was unexpectedly strong. He almost crushed my hand with a sudden force. finger! Also, the hand he held on my waist also tightened. His fingertips seemed to be carrying the power of fire. The scorching temperature was like a steel needle, piercing deeply into my skin and into my internal organs!
I looked at him in horror. For a moment, I felt as if I was being held in the hands of a giant dragon!
If Dallion hadn't rushed over, I don't know what would have happened. He pulled me out of Nesa's hands and blocked me behind me.
"Oh?" Nesa smiled and tilted her head, her inky eyes still hovering over me, "I'm so sorry for occupying your female companion for so long, young Master Mograine."
"Can I take my female companion there? Sir?" Dallion lowered his voice.
"Of course." Nessa nodded towards us.
I squeezed the hem of my skirt hard, turned around and fled towards the corner of the hall.
"Maybe I can help you more." As I turned and left following Dallion, Nessa's magical voice came to my ears.
I couldn't help but look back and saw that the lord was still standing upright, smiling and graceful.
