Chapter 566： Refuse

The architecture of Oak Tree Manor is exquisite and elegant yet hidden luxury. The pillars supporting the residence are not gold or wood, and the material is not visible, but they are extremely hard.

Colin tried it, but he couldn't leave a trace on it.

I asked the guards on duty to find out that the material of these pillars turned out to be keel bones!

Legend has it that the most powerful main battle class of the elves was not the later ranger, but the druid.

The druid at that time was a powerful existence capable of head-to-head with the dragon.

It is a pity that this profession has also lost its inheritance in the long river of time for unknown reasons, leaving only some obscure legends and sporadic relics for future generations to admire.

Just as Colin was in awe of these keel pillars, a crisp voice suddenly sounded behind him:

"Earl Angley."

Colin slowly turned around and saw a young girl in a black dress standing there happily.

Her figure is tall and well-proportioned, her facial features are exquisite, her white and tender skin shines with a jade-like luster, and her soft and bright blonde hair has a unique charm that is unforgettable at first sight.

"Miss Salia, I didn't expect you to be here." Colin was indeed a little surprised.

Although Oak Tree Manor was once given to Prince Leahy, it has now been taken back by the royal family. As the daughter of Prince Leahy, Salia should not want to return to this sad place unless she is invited.

Salia stretched out her hand and held a bunch of hair tossed by the breeze behind her ears, her eyes dodged, and she was extremely shy.

"I am here as a guest by your Majesty's invitation."

Clin was suddenly a little surprised. It is impossible for Emperor Reinhardt to invite Salia to Oak Manor for no reason. Especially here is a very formal meeting, which has nothing to do with Salia...

But looking at Salia’s blushing cheeks, Colin suddenly flashed a thought—

Emperor Reinhardt didn't plan to match him with Salia, would he?

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is really possible.

After all, in the eyes of Emperor Reinhardt, Vera has become a vegetative, while Colin is young and promising, with a boundless future and no orthodox children. In the future, I am afraid that she will be single again...

So, did Emperor Reinhardt want to use Salia to win him over?

Colin suddenly felt a little funny and a little ridiculous.

I don't know who recommended Salia to Emperor Reinhardt.

Of course, Salia's identity is noble enough and beautiful enough, but her current situation is too embarrassing, even if Colin really intends to abandon Vera, she would not choose Salia.

After all, Prince Leahy is now disgraced, and has become a role that everyone in the empire calls.

unless…

Colin suddenly realized that unless Emperor Reinhardt deliberately wanted to whitewash Prince Leahy!

Perhaps the crisis of the invasion of the orc empire made Emperor Reinhardt panic, or perhaps the situation in the empire is now in danger of getting out of the control of the royal family. The great Reinhardt finally began to understand that the royal family still needs Prince Leahy, the paladin, as the sacred needle of the sea.

I just don’t know how the Emperor Reinhardt was confident that Prince Lech would forgive him for what he had done in the first place?

Salia's silence caused some misunderstandings in Colin's silence. She lowered her head, as if she could not bear Colin's scorching gaze, she spoke again after a long while, whispering:

"Earl Anglia, I took the liberty to visit the Red Fort before, but it's a pity that you are not here..."

"Oh, yes, I heard about it." Colin came back to his senses and smiled. "I have been traveling around this period of time and have not been able to receive your visit personally. Please forgive me, Miss Salia."

"Earl Anglia, you are too worried. I was warmly received in the Red Fort. It was an unforgettable and wonderful experience. If I have the opportunity, I hope I can enjoy the scenery of the north again."

When any gentleman heard this, he should take the initiative to send out an invitation, but Colin pretended not to understand the cues in Salia's words and smiled:

"Miss Salia, let's go to the banquet hall as soon as possible. It would be rude if we are late."

"Good." Salia lowered her head, her eyes flashed with disappointment, but she obediently followed Colin along the corridor to the direction of the banquet hall.

The two did not speak any more, and the atmosphere gradually became a little awkward.

It wasn't that Colin didn't understand the style, but that he didn't intend to abandon Vera, and of course he couldn't give Salia too much expectation, so as not to misunderstand the other party.

If Salia just wants to be Colin's lover, then it is natural to say that Colin has no moral and cleanliness. He is very happy to provide the joyful experience under your will, but unfortunately, what Salia expects is legal. Colin can only say sorry for the position of his wife.

Not long after, the two came to the banquet hall.

"Earl Anglia, welcome to Oak Manor!"

As soon as he entered the door, Colin heard a loud greeting.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your invitation!" Colinbi respectfully saluted Emperor Reinhardt.

Emperor Reinhardt actually stepped forward, patted Colin on the shoulder affectionately, then glanced at Salia next to Colin with an ambiguous look, and hurriedly said:

"Earl Anglia, have you chosen your female companion tonight?"

The corners of Colin's mouth twitched a few times, and he secretly complained that the emperor's method of drawing was too direct and too rough. It was simply stuffing a lollipop into your mouth while asking you "Is it delicious?"

But no way, who made him the emperor of the empire.

Colin had no choice but to pretend to be silly and replied: "Sorry, Your Majesty, my female companion is still in Winter City, I'm afraid I won't be able to attend tonight's banquet."

Emperor Reinhardt frowned and was a little annoyed at Colin's ignorance. He was about to break out, but he heard a voice suddenly sounded at the door:

"Count Anglia, if you need a female partner, I am missing a male partner."

Emperor Reinhardt glared at him, and UU reading was about to scold him, but when he saw the person coming, he immediately suffocated.

Because, the person who said this was the Duke of St. Grianan.

Colin also turned his head, and saw that the Duke of St. Grianan tonight also took off his armor and put on a sky blue palace dress, which set off the beautiful body curve without losing dignity and elegance, just right. Light makeup makes the original flawless appearance more bright and beautiful, calm and elegant in gestures, and there is a kind of strange beauty that conforms to the laws of nature, which can subtly affect the senses of others.

Such a stunning woman at the pinnacle of the way of knights can not only make people feel an awe-inspiring temperament, but also can easily arouse the most primitive impulse in a man's heart with a seductive look.

Just as Colin was in doubt, the Duke of Saint-Griand had swung his willow, came to him, and took the initiative to take his arm.

Colin only felt a strong fragrance pierced into his nose, and the warm touch on his arm made him lose consciousness.

When Emperor Reinhardt watched this scene, the breath he had held back surged again, his face flushed.
