At this time, the music has reached its last section.
Eli held Rias' arm for the last part of the dance.
"How about it, it's not bad."
As soon as he lowered his head, Eli could see Rias's big purple eyes, her cheeks were slightly red, and then she said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Hmm... Not bad!" The intense dance made Rias' heart beat faster. She looked at Eli in front of her as if she was dreaming in the clouds.
Oh my God!
She never imagined that Eli, who usually either works in the library or is at home, could be so good at aristocratic dancing.
But the exclamation was followed by bitterness.
It doesn’t matter if you are good at studying, you are still so good at dancing.
Can you save some face for me, X﹏X.
In the melancholy, the music finally ended.
The next second, fierce applause rang out at the banquet, and Alex, Elize and others also came over.
"The movements are very graceful and smooth!" Elize praised. The last time she saw such a graceful dance was at a banquet with her father, but last time she was the top dancer in the empire.
"Your performance is so wonderful." Alex also did not hesitate to praise him. He also looked at Klein, who was only a few meters away, and raised his head:
"Klein, what do you think?"
"It's okay, it's okay!" Klein's mouth twitched and he nodded stubbornly, but the look he looked at Eli was no longer as disgusting as before.
Excellent people are somewhat worthy of respect.
"No regrets, no regrets." Looking at Eli standing with Alex, Rias and many other descendants of the great nobility, David felt a little heartbroken, but then he comforted himself and said:
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. After all, they are just a few noble children, not the real nobles who inherited the title."
After some self-comfort, David didn't feel so heartbroken... Damn it, it hurts so much! It hurts so much!
And because of this dance, the distance between Eli and Alex and other nobles seemed to have narrowed a lot, and they happily talked about some things together.
During the conversation, Eli also discovered that several people actually spoke well to people they knew, which made him break the inherent influence of the descendants of the great nobles in his impression.
Among them, Eli also introduced Heman to several people, which made Heman secretly happy.
Time passed quickly.
The band also slowly left, and everyone was taken to the room to change clothes and prepare for hunting.
Eli's clothes were relatively casual to begin with, and hunting was usually for casual fun, so he didn't bring any other clothes.
After changing their clothes, they followed Rias to the back of the castle.
Here is a large piece of grassland, followed by a large piece of woods. This is the territory of the Gremory family. In order to facilitate hunting, the Gremory family has put a lot of wild animals here.
But when everyone arrived, Eli saw someone unexpected.
"Teacher!" Eli blinked.
Not far away, Kurt (Lemmon student) in gray clothes followed Maester Lemmon, and Maester Lemmon followed a man in gorgeous clothes, and there were several people behind the man.
"Father!" On the other side, a figure had already run over, it was Rias.
Yes, Eli knows who the man at the front is. He should be Count Gremory.
The count walked in the front, wearing expensive silk clothes. His eyes looked bright and his body looked strong, exuding a powerful vitality.
In addition to the Count, Count Gremory also has another identity.
He is also a great knight.
…
"As you know, I am planning to donate some money, but I am not sure who will get the money now."
Count Gremory was walking on the road, talking to six people from the Imperial Library, the Imperial Monastery, and the Imperial Knight Academy behind him.
In the cold winter last year, he stored a large amount of grain in advance. After selling it, he collected a large amount of funds, so he prepared to strengthen his external contacts and donate a sum of money.
Originally, he was planning to donate it to the library, after all, his daughter is currently in the library.
But the Imperial Monastery and the Imperial Knights Academy got the news from nowhere and came to find him. This put him in a dilemma because his other son was in the Imperial Monastery, and the Knights Academy also had a lot of connections with him. relation.
"Lord Earl, please donate it to us. The Knight Academy trains countless outstanding soldiers every year. We are really short of money. If you give this money to us, we may be able to train a few more knights today. You are also from the Knight Academy, so you will understand." There was an old man from the Imperial Knight Academy, and behind him was a red-haired young man.
"Don't listen to him, Lord Earl. Your son is still studying in our college. He is very good. If everything goes well, he might even become the principal's student." The person in the convent was an old woman, and behind her was A gentle-looking man.
The Imperial Knight Academy began to play the emotional card, and the monastery began to seize the earl's son.
Count Gremory was actually very confused, thinking about their reasons, and then looked at Maester Lemon, who had not spoken in the end.
Looking at the count's gaze, Lemon also secretly complained.
All three of them had some contact with the earl, and he was also sent out for public relations.
But he is a researcher who has been engaged in research all year round, and he is from the library. He has nothing and has no right to promise anything, but he knows that this money is very important to the library.
The library was originally very inefficient and relied on subsidies from the empire all year round. However, the empire did not have much money this winter, so the library was almost unable to pay out money. They did not dare to tell the people below, which was why he came.
Therefore, after a few seconds, he said in an uncertain tone: "Lord Earl, I can try my best to apply for the title of honorary scholar with the curator."
Damn it!
Behind Maester Lemon, Kurt covered his head.
Teacher, you are facing a count, and a well-developed count. Does he lack the title of honorary scholar? And what does it mean to do your best?
Don't be so honest, you were so energetic when you scolded He-Man!
"Yeah!" The count's expression didn't change much.
To him, the title of an honorary scholar is really nothing.
In fact, among the three conditions, the monastery was pretty good, and the other two were average. However, he also came from a knight academy, so he had to go to the back of the library.
"Hey, it's really troublesome!" The earl was also a little worried.
As everyone walked along, the old man and the woman kept persuading the earl. Only the honest Bachelor Lemon walked behind, and what he wanted to say was a bit embarrassing.
Kurt looked desperate.
