The dinner party with the High Priest Sitings got away a little earlier than expected. David was in a good mood. He rarely used the elevator and climbed the stairs with his own feet on a whim. The attendant had reported that Monique was kidnapping Gu. Han Han was poking at the emblems of the major palaces in the Acropolis on the rooftop. If he couldn't see them at a glance, he would wait for an opportunity to ride on a Pegasus and come out to catch the moon. [No pop-up novel website]
"This bad boy," David couldn't help but smile, thinking to himself, "He is the only one in the Lighthouse who can do such a thing!"
David didn't feel the slightest displeasure about Monique's entanglement with Gu Hanhan. On the contrary, he even welcomed Monique's messing around Gu Hanhan. It was ridiculous to be jealous of a boy who was about the same age as Oliver. He liked to watch Gu Hanhan and Monique quarreling and fighting when they were together. When it comes to causing trouble and misbehaving, Monique seems to be the only one in the entire Lighthouse Star who is worthy of fighting against Gu Hanhan. He liked to watch her act recklessly and cause trouble, and it was even more wonderful to help her solve the mess caused by her antics and troubles.
After thirteen years of allowing everyone in the Duran family, Helena, and countless vassals to do whatever they want, and having to pay for their mess, David Duran finally found a woman he liked and was willing to pay for. . It is conceivable that he secretly hopes that this woman will mess around and wants her to clean up the mess.
"A perfect little wife and a naughty son," he thought. It would be even more perfect if Hanhan had fallen in love with him and the ranger in Xinghua Lane did not exist.
"The Ranger in Apricot Blossom Lane" suddenly popped up in his mind, which made David's originally good mood darken. He has enough patience in pursuing Gu Hanhan's true love, but the existence of such a knight-errant who carries "the love of the woman he loves" is like a stick in his throat.
It's easy to deal with such a powerless ranger in David Duran, just kill him. He doesn't even need to take action himself, three or at most five slaves from the training camp are enough. Just like Philip has been persuading him recently.
"Kill him, David, call the captain of the chamberlain or simply me to do it myself," Philip said, "There is nothing wrong, he should have died a long time ago! It is a big joke to still live after stealing your mistress! As long as you don't say anything, the vassals in the family who are waiting to use his head to please you can line up from the south pole of the lighthouse star to the north pole."
However, once emotional issues are entangled, the situation seems to be complicated.
"We are not robbing civilian girls," he replied to Philip at the time. "If we kill him now, he will stay in Hanhan's heart forever. Hanhan will be sad and hate me - in short, don't touch it he."
Philip sneered at David's statement: "You don't understand women at all, David. They are very forgetful. Even if they will be sad for a while, how long will it last? Time will make them forget their past love and sadness together. . As for hate, it doesn’t matter. There is an old proverb in the love field called ‘hate comes from love’, she will always fall in love with you.”
But since David had said "don't move", Philip could no longer mention killing the "Ranger". After venting his anger, he came up with an even more unethical idea: "Then just find a young lady from a noble family to show him Okay. It goes without saying why the Ranger came to Lighthouse Planet. Marriage is almost inevitable. He is not you, David. Between the aristocratic lady who can make him prosperous and has been struggling for twenty years and the little girl from Earth , what do you think he would choose? Reveal the true identity of the ranger and show it to the little sister, David, so that she will know how to choose."
David was silent, and then said: "It's too despicable to do this. I don't want Hanhan to look down on me while being disappointed in the ranger. Don't mention this matter again."
"And," he warned Philip, "don't call her little sister!"
"So a bitch?"
David glanced at Philip.
Phillip raised his hands: "Okay, Gu Hanhan."
The joke was no longer allowed, but Phillip was still unconvinced. He said: "Frankly speaking, David, you are asking for trouble by falling in love with Miss Hanhan like this."
At that time, David said nothing. He fully understood what Phillip meant by "asking for trouble", but that kind of love that was snatched away was not what he wanted. A young man like Philip who plays with flowers will probably never understand that love is not a trophy that can be stolen and plundered. If he didn't resort to simple violence or tricks, and rely on his own strength, wouldn't he be able to win Gu Hanhan's love?
Such an assumption undoubtedly makes David Duran feel depressed and unhappy. He shook his head slightly, as if he wanted to use this action to get rid of the unpleasant words of "The Ranger of Almond Blossom Lane" and Phillip. However, as the saying goes, blessings never come in pairs, misfortunes never come alone, and unhappiness always comes at the right time. The latest news that came soon after, obviously made David even more depressed and unhappy.
——Hebrew, the chief attendant, stepped forward at this time and reported to David the duel that had just occurred at the Yves family’s autumn banquet.
There is no doubt that this is a major event that shocked the lighthouse star. A young seventh-level person who can instantly kill his peers in a duel, a new potential person who is very likely to finally break through, and a single ranger who is not involved in any family. The entire Lighthouse Planet will go crazy because of him, and the "helpless" super-powered families in the Acropolis and the helpless countries in the galaxy will turn into crazy tops, spinning around him. Compared with the value he showed, what happened to Krauser-Shaw in the afternoon was almost worth mentioning!
David frowned slightly. It wasn't because he had another competitor. The universe was very big and gays were all brothers. It was just that this person was him.
Anthony the Unknown Ranger, David Duran's so-called true love.
From the perspective of a love war, this looks too much like a long-planned targeted counterattack. At this moment when David Duran had just begun to pursue Gu Hanhan and was very likely to choose to bully others and simply resort to force, Anthony, who had been quietly dormant in Beacon Star for two months and did not show up at the autumn banquet at all, chose to socialize Ji Mo stood up and declared to the whole universe that he was not afraid of being crushed by any family force.
Although David Duran has no intention of bullying others and relying on strength to crush Anthony and win the beauty, such an almost tit-for-tat counterattack cannot make him feel comfortable.
The sound of Gu Hanhan and Monique bickering and scolding on the rooftop reached his ears. David glanced at the stairs that were almost reaching the top, turned around and went down to the small audience room next to the living room.
In the small audience room, a young superpower noble was already waiting there. This is a young man from a certain vassal family of David. He is only a fourth-level superpower. But tonight he attended the Ive family’s autumn banquet and witnessed the duel at a very close distance. During the whole process, he was summoned by Hebrews, the chief attendant, and waited for the master's detailed questioning.
As soon as David entered, the young nobleman knelt down and saluted him. Because this was the first time he was summoned by his master, and because the difference in superpower levels was so far apart, this young nobleman seemed a little nervous, with his back stiff and his whole body tense. If possible, he would rather kneel down on the ground. It would be easier to just lie on the ground, but etiquette does not allow it.
David had to be patient and asked the young man's name, as well as the names of his father and grandfather. After the young man's emotions calmed down a little, he asked him about the details of the gladiatorial fight. Naturally, this young man couldn't explain the details of energy use clearly. Although he was the closest during the duel, it was impossible for a mere fourth-level superpower to understand the subtleties of the seventh-level energy field. Of course, David would not ask him this. The duel process would naturally be broken down into every tiny change by professional researchers for analysis. What he was concerned about now were some details other than the duel, such as his attitude towards Miss Sikuon, Etiquette used in duels.
Finally, he asked: "During the duel, he still just said his name was Anthony, without his family name?"
"Yes, Master," the noble young man replied respectfully, "He is completely a wanderer, except for being extremely arrogant."
David was silent. Hebrews glanced at David's expression and signaled that the noble young man could retreat. The young man stood up and exited the small audience room, touched the non-existent sweat on his forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, and then left happily.
Hebrews asked David for instructions: "There were several other sirs who were also there at the time, but they were a little further away. Does the master want to summon them?"
"No need," David shook his head, "Since he dares to take action, there is no need to ask anymore."
David stood up and was about to leave the small audience room. When he saw the chief attendant following him step by step, he couldn't help but frown: "Is there anything else?"
So Hebrew took out two invitations and reported: "Master Su Yu's palace manager just sent someone to send an invitation to the golden banquet. There is also an invitation to Miss Gu, and I hope we will deliver it. The messenger said that on that day, Germany At Winter's autumn banquet, Miss Gu once agreed to accept the steward's invitation and asked for an invitation." He paid attention to David's face and said carefully: "After the duel, Justin also sent an invitation to Anthony immediately. .”
"Reply Justin, I will definitely go to this year's Golden Banquet."
After David finished speaking, he took the invitation from Gu Hanhan and carried it up to the rooftop himself.
On the rooftop, Gu Hanhan and Monique happened to be arguing about which house belonged to Pharaoh Justin Suyu. Monique had a bad memory and pointed in the wrong direction, but Gu Hanhan was also confused and insisted that it was wrong.
"Isn't Pharaoh Justin's palace called the Golden Castle? Look at that house, there's not a single piece of gold in it, it's definitely not the case!"
"The Golden Castle is Lord Su Yu's manor, not in the Acropolis." David walked over with a smile, corrected Monique's wrong direction, pointed to a palace with a flashing emblem and told Gu Hanhan, "That is his Acropolis official residence.”
Then he handed the invitation to Gu Hanhan: "A golden banquet in a golden castle."
Gu Hanhan took it with some surprise: "Is it for me? Manager Aotou really keeps his word."
"Do you want to go?" David asked. "This banquet is also called the King's Banquet. There will be many monarchs and princes and princesses from many countries coming. It will be quite lively."
"Of course I want to go." Gu Hanhan was happy, but he didn't pay much attention to the king or prince.
