Chapter 20： prom

"Eli, what are we going to do next?"

After a few people left, Eli and Herman were left, Herman asked.

"Of course I went to eat and drink?" Eli glanced at Herman strangely, then looked at the table not far away.

It was a long table, and it was filled with various foods at this time.

In addition to the bright red wines, there are various delicacies on it, such as grilled sausages, grilled meats, fruit pies, baked prawns, pickled goose, white bread, small desserts, etc. There are many kinds.

"Uh..." Herman didn't know how to refute after hearing it.

When you come to a noble banquet, shouldn't you actively get to know other nobles and make contacts? How come here is to eat.

Eli's thoughts... Really the same Eli as always.

"If you want to meet other people, then go ahead, don't pay attention to me, I happen to be a little hungry." Eli naturally understood Herman's thoughts and waved his hand.

Although this kid is unlikely to inherit the title, he has been working hard. When he comes to such a place, he naturally has to do something. Eli is too lazy to care, and he is really not interested in getting to know other people.

For him, it was a waste of time.

"Okay then." Herman looked apologetic, then walked in the other direction, where he saw someone he knew.

Eli immediately walked over to the table next to him, picked up the plate, and started to take the food.

The food at the noble banquet is much more advanced than what he usually eats. When he comes, he shouldn't eat a little more. Anyway, he doesn't need money, and he won't eat it for nothing.

Soon he took a plate full of food and looked content.

More than ten meters away, Klein, who happened to pass by, saw this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he scolded, "What a country bumpkin, so inelegant."

Eli naturally ignored other people's eyes.

Eli walked to the corner of the banquet hall, found a table, sat down, and began to feast.

There were originally some people here, but when they saw Eli, they subconsciously stayed away.

So inelegant!

For a time, the whole banquet seemed to have a boundary line, one side was the nobles chatting elegantly, and the other side was Eli who was eating a lot.

Rias was directing the others, and when she saw Eli in the corner, she couldn't help laughing.

This guy really doesn't care what other people think!

Half an hour later, with Eli burping, he was full.

He wiped his mouth, then stood up and looked around, at this time Herman had integrated into a small group, chatting there, looking harmonious.

And after half an hour, the banquet finally started.

Rias stood on the platform, which was slightly higher in the center, and began to speak. First, she was happy that everyone came, and she said a lot, and finally announced the beginning of the dance.

As for hunting, that was the last activity.

The dance naturally required a venue, and Eli saw many maids and male servants entering the banquet and removing the table that had been filled with food, and the food on it was not consumed in a few steps.

"It's really a luxury!" Don't think about it, most of these foods are probably wasted.

It is clear that there are still many civilians starving to death, but it seems that it has nothing to do with them. The value of the food consumed at a banquet is probably enough for hundreds of civilians to spend a cold winter.

As the table moved away, a band entered the ballroom and began to play music.

The beautiful and pleasant music entered Eli's ears, which made him feel much better. Compared with the always noisy music on Liuying Street, this music was obviously much better.

As the notes flew, the men also invited the girls to start dancing on the dance floor.

Eli stood outside the dance floor, watching these people dancing quietly, and suddenly felt some people on the right walking towards him.

"Eli, let me introduce you, this is my new friend." Herman walked over, and beside him was a noble man with blond hair and blue eyes. Judging from the noble coat of arms, he belonged to the baron family.

"Herman, who is this?" The nobles brought by Herman were also curious about who Herman wanted to bring to meet him.

"This is my best friend, a student of Bachelor Lemon in the library." Herman introduced him, then raised his brows towards Eli.

He knew that Eli didn't like socializing, but Herman felt that it was necessary for him to get to know some better people. As Eli's good friend, on this occasion, he felt the need to help Eli treat "social fear". ".

"This is David." Then Herman also introduced the man.

"Hello, I'm David, which family do you belong to?" The blond David smiled.

"Hello, I don't belong to any noble family." Eli didn't expect Herman to come here, but replied politely.

Although he is polite, David has accurately grasped the key words, isn't it a noble?

His smile disappeared instantly, and the look in Eli's eyes gradually changed from being equal to looking down.

"I'm sorry, I still have something to do." David said simply, and then left, ignoring Herman.

He spent a lot of money to come to the banquet, but he can't waste time on commoners. As for Herman, making friends with commoners is probably not very good.

Seeing David who left suddenly, Herman was also stunned, as if he didn't expect this to happen.

"Eli, I'm sorry." But after a few seconds, he figured it out, and then said to Eli.

"It's okay." Eli shook his head.

Who cares about an ant on the side of the road!

"Aren't you going to chase?" Instead, Eli looked at Herman with interest and asked, he saw it just now, this kid had been chatting with that noble for a long time.

"Uh, don't make fun of me." Herman was a little embarrassed, he said: "But because of your light, I came here, and I'm on your side!"

"Okay!" Eli nodded, his favorability for this kid increased a lot.

At this time, another person suddenly came over.

Rias was wearing a purple dress, came over with a smile, and invited, "Eli, do you want to dance together?"

The dance floor is now a standard aristocratic dance, a dance derived from classical dance. It is difficult but looks very beautiful.

He shouldn't turn down a lady's invitation, but Eli doesn't do that dance.

"I don't know how to dance." Eli declined politely.

"It doesn't matter, I can guide you to dance." Rias smiled with a bright smile.

She was here for "revenge". When she asked Eli's questions before, she was taught a lot of lessons.

For example: "It's so simple, how can you not.", "Have you really learned this?", "I think you need to do it again.", "It is recommended to start with grammar"...

For her, it was like a nightmare. Now that she has finally invited Eli to the banquet, she naturally wants him to know that she is Rias, a noble lady, but she is also very strong in other aspects. of.

"You told me that life is about experience." As if worried about Eli's rejection, Rias said slyly.

Eli assured with a wizard's memory that this was not what he said.

"Okay." But he didn't refuse this time, just said: "But can I take a look and learn a little?"

"Of course you can." Rias expressed her grace, and smiled inwardly, that is, at a banquet, she could maintain a dignified expression.

It can be regarded as falling into the hands of this lady. (≧ω≦)

Eli looked towards the dance floor, and various movements rushed towards his mind like fragments, allowing Eli to quickly master the movements of the dance.

Rias looked at Eli staring at the dance floor intently, as if she was really learning, showing a sly smile, you pretend, you pretend.

Three minutes later, Eli stopped.

"Have you learned?" Rias pretended to ask.

Knowing that you are good at learning, I don't believe that you are good at dancing too.

Dancing is a test of physical ability.

"I learned it." Eli nodded calmly, stretched out his hand, and invited, "I wonder if this beautiful lady is willing to dance with me?"

Rias was stunned for a moment, looking at her always confident expression in a black suit, she suddenly felt like she had returned to asking a question.

No way.

"Impossible!" Rias shook her head, she didn't believe Eli could dance.

"Okay!" Rias took Eli's hand, and the two walked towards the dance floor.

Herman: …

How did you manage to ignore me so naturally.
