feed on dragons

As the nearest neighbor to Olsen, Ainos's convoy was the first to arrive, but soon, convoys from other countries also arrived one after another.The mage tower, which has always been quiet, became lively, and the mages who were familiar with each other greeted each other. As the biggest contributor to the birth of the meeting, Yaqibeier came from afar along with the person in charge of the host country Olsen. The guests can't rest for a moment.

The initial public relations communication ended quickly. After all, there was a dinner party later, and there was no rush to chat or establish a relationship.The participants were divided into two groups, one was the masters who were the backbone of each country, and the other was apprentices.Almost every participating team brought one to three apprentices, so it was a small group of people.The apprentices were gathered together like a group of chickens, and followed behind the group of mages. The group was led by Olson's person in charge, and walked to the entrance of a two-story, quite wide mansion behind the magic towers.Julian couldn't help but stretched his neck and looked towards the extended wall. Countless windows were neatly arranged on the red brick wall.It seems that this is where they will stay for the time being.

The apprentices were placed on the right side of the mansion, while the mages were on the left.This vast manor also has several meeting rooms available for use, and during the summit, there will be guards at all times to ensure the safety of the lives and properties of distinguished guests.

This time was different from the time in the hotel, each apprentice was allocated a separate room.While Julian was relieved that he didn't have to have sex with Carter, he also felt a little regretful that he didn't have sex with Dai Ning.But fortunately, the location of the room is divided according to the country. The rooms of the three are next to each other, and Julian is between Carter and Daining.

"The dinner party starts at eight o'clock, and you must be seated at seven o'clock. Everyone, please hurry up and get ready. If there is anything needed, we will have someone waiting in the hall, please feel welcome."

The young official in charge of distributing the keys hurriedly turned and left after giving instructions, looking quite busy.

"Clean up your things first and change your clothes. I'll go find you later." Dai Ning patted him on the shoulder, then opened the door and entered his room.Before entering the room, Julian couldn't help turning his head and glanced at Carter's room next to him, but Carter had already entered and closed the door, and he only saw a dark blue door.

Julian didn't know whether he was relieved or a little lost.He shook his head as if trying to shake off this strange feeling, and opened the door.

The room prepared for the apprentices is not that big, but the furniture is quite complete, at least it seems to be no problem to live here for a month.Julian looked at the time. It was half past five. The place of the dinner was at the Royal Palace, which was about 15 minutes' drive away from the Master's Tower. If they set off at seven, there should still be plenty of time.

"Okay, let's pack your bags."

He looked at the small suitcase on the bed, thought about the 31 sets of clothes, and rolled up his sleeves with a serious expression...

When Dai Ning knocked on Julian's door, Julian was lying on the bed panting from exhaustion.The not-so-small closet in the room was full, and there were some clothes that couldn't fit and had to be stuffed back into the suitcase.It took him a lot of effort just to decide which ones should be put in the closet and which ones could be temporarily put in the suitcase.Julian gasped for a while before getting up and opening the door. When Dai Ning saw him, he immediately frowned.

"Hey, Julian, you don't want to go in uniform, do you?"

"Ah?" Julian looked down at himself blankly. "Ah... I was busy arranging things, and I watched the matter of changing clothes..."

"What are you tidying up!" Dai Ning stepped into the room, but when he saw the full closet, he couldn't help being stunned, and his question was instantly answered.

"...According to your iron rooster-like personality, I think it's not you, but the adult in your family who prepared it. Is he trying to heat you to death, or is he trying to kill you again?"

"He said... change a set every day, throw it away if it gets dirty..." Julian covered his face.

"Tsk tsk. Don't be so wasteful, you will be punished by God." Dai Ning reached out and touched the folded clothes, "the material is very good, wow, this is silk... this tailoring... your adults are also very fond of it." I'll have a good time."

Julian didn't know what to say, he didn't even know when Hal prepared these things, anyway, this overstuffed box suddenly popped up and was handed to him.As for Hal, Julian had already given up thinking about it a long time ago. Anyway, that red-haired man is a dragon, and this alone seems to be a reasonable reason for all unreasonable things.

"Obviously there are so many clothes, but you don't change quickly..."

Dai Ning muttered and flipped through those clothes, pulling out a few from time to time and throwing them on the bed.Julian looked distressedly at the closet he had just tidied up, and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing?"

"What are you doing? I'm looking for clothes for little Julian who is about to be late!" The boy bared his teeth at him, made an angry expression, and then continued to search back. "Don't be in a daze, hurry up and change into the clothes I found out, I have to see which one is more suitable for today's occasion, don't think that you can finish the job if you wear it well, we will all be late if you don't hurry up."

"No need, just wear a suit casually..."

Julian hummed as he put on obediently.

"Whatever! You are willing, but the eldest prince is still unwilling. What's more, do you know how to put on these vest coat pins? Wear it casually? You just want to wear one casually! I didn't say that, although the adult of your family I have prepared 31 sets of clothes, but I don’t think you will work so hard to change them every day. According to your personality, you probably want to wear a uniform every day, right? A uniform is the last one, and at most, you can change your shirt when you send it to the laundry. I’m not right Wrong? Well, don’t make an expression of “Why do you know?”, move faster…”

After Julian had been dressed and undressed several times, the matter of clothes was finally settled.Dai Ning helped him comb his hair again, and tied his somewhat long hair into a beautiful bow with a velvet ribbon.

Until everything was done and Dai Ning pushed him into the carriage, Julian still hadn't recovered.For the first time, he knew that changing clothes was such a tiring task, and that Dai Ning was obviously a pampered young man, but he was not sloppy in dealing with others... Regarding this matter, he couldn't help it when he was in the carriage. After asking, Dai Ning smiled and said, if nothing else, at least the skill of tying hair was trained by his three older sisters.

I don't know if it was because the departure time was late, but the carriage ran fast, and the two arrived at Olson's palace before the dinner started.The hall where the banquet was held was very spacious, with countless shells inlaid with delicate patterns on the high ceiling, the walls were decorated with glass and gold leaf, and the light of the crystal lamp sprinkled on it was enough to dazzle the eyes.

In the spacious room, high officials and nobles were everywhere chatting and greeting each other, and the palace servants were busy coming and going. Appetizers and cold dishes and some snacks were already placed on the four long tables.Julian followed closely behind Dai Ning. He had never participated in such an occasion, and he should be very nervous, but after seeing the food, the hunger in his stomach was even better than the nervousness.

A servant led them to the corner where Orson gathered. The magicians stood or sat leisurely, chatting with wine glasses.Julian spotted Carter in the crowd at a glance. The boy was standing expressionlessly beside a man in his thirties or forties who was chatting with another older woman.

Julian recognized that the man was Carter's teacher and the most popular next chief candidate at present: Mandron, and the man who was chatting with him was the elder of the magic council in the ancient country of Mist in the east, the great magician. Teacher Hein.

"Isn't this the young master of the Helen family!"

Just as Julian and Dai Ning stood still, someone came up to talk to them.For such a situation, Dai Ning can be said to have practiced a lot of battles. He showed a polite smile, answered with a lot of desire, and introduced Julian when the other party asked.Julian stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party as a greeting. After that, although the man was still talking to Dai Ning, his eyes glanced at the young man from time to time. The friend dodged a little behind him.

Fortunately, I just took a second look, the man didn't do anything special, and left after a while of pleasantries.Just when Dai Ning wanted to turn his head and say something to Julian, the next person came up again, almost repeating the previous situation.After doing this two or three times, Dai Ning finally had a chance to catch his breath.

"I thought it would be fine if you kept a low profile on this occasion, but it seems that it's not that simple."

Dai Ning waved to the servant in charge of delivering drinks, took two wine glasses filled with bright red liquid, handed a glass to Julian, and whispered to him: "Those people just came to talk to me in the first place, They were all spying on you afterwards. Probably they have heard some news about Yaqibel and you, you wait and be careful."

"Oh, good."

Julian nodded uneasily.He restrained the natural breath of the obscene demon as much as possible, and let go of his senses a little, sensing the emotions of the people around him.Normally, he would never do this in a place with so many people. After all, he has no interest in prying into people's privacy, and knowing other people's emotions is not a very comfortable thing; but just now Dai Ning has already proposed Warning, he thought it would be safer.

Suddenly there was some commotion in the crowd.Julian and Dai Ning stretched their necks to look for the source of the commotion, and saw three people appearing on the three main seats at the end of the hall.A man in his 60s and [-]s wearing a golden crown stood in the middle, and on the left and right stood an old man with white beard and hair, and the eldest prince of Ainos, Azibel.

"It's about to start." Dai Ning said to himself.

The man standing in the middle is the king of Orson.This summit is mainly about magicians. Originally, it would have been good to let the chief of the Olsen Magicians Association, standing on the left, be presided over, but Olson and Ainos have always been friends. Banquet for the opening of the summit.

Julian put his hand on his hungry stomach, worried that the speech would take a long time.He looked at the large plate that was just placed on the long table with the lid on, and couldn't help swallowing.

Fortunately, I don’t know if it’s because I didn’t like to procrastinate, or I felt that some people in the venue were already too hungry. The king’s speech was not long, not even Aceh Bell’s speech.After the two succinctly explained the cause of the summit and some words of blessing, amid the applause, the magician summit finally kicked off.

After getting a hint from Dai Ning that it is time to start eating, Julian took a lot of effort to maintain the elegant manners he learned in etiquette courses, instead of rushing towards the long table like a hungry wolf and immediately It was windy and cloudy.In fact, he was a little fortunate that the dinner was held in a relatively relaxed buffet format. Although he still had to maintain a certain manner, it was much more comfortable than sitting at the dining table and eating in a proper manner.

Julian excitedly walked to the long table closest to him with his plate in his hands.Just like what Dai Ning said, the dinner dishes were full of Olsen's specialty seafood. Seeing the table full of fish, shrimp, crab and shellfish, the boy was a little stunned.

It looks delicious, but he doesn't know how to eat some things no matter how he looks at them?What is that white round thing?Is that weird looking crab or shrimp?That thing that looks like a shrimp but is more than ten times bigger than the shrimp he has seen, is it just eaten like this, or is there a special way to eat it?

Julian hesitated a little. He took some small dishes, then stared at the delicious big dishes, and was in a daze. Just standing here has already attracted the attention of many people.

Since he was in a hurry when he went out, Julian actually didn't have much impression of what he was wearing now.Dai Ning helped him choose a red wide-swing coat, the cuffs and neckline were embroidered with delicate patterns with rose-gold thread, layer upon layer like golden flames, with a silk shirt and a dark purple vest inside , with black cropped trousers and suspender socks on the lower body, and a pair of delicate low-heeled ankle boots on the feet.The main color of crimson sets off his blond hair quite dazzlingly, coupled with the innately outstanding appearance of the obscene demon, and the alluring aura that cannot be completely suppressed no matter how suppressed, this young man whose mind is only thinking about eating has become a An eye magnet.

"Is it the legend in the streets and alleys, the beauty on the Enos motorcade?"

Some well-informed people were discussing in low voices, and from time to time they raised their eyes to peek at Julian, who was looking at the table in distress.And some people seem to have started to move around...

"What's wrong? Why are you standing here all the time? The people behind you will be blocked by you."

A strange male voice sounded behind Julian. He was startled, and quickly moved to the side, "I'm very sorry, I'm blocking you..."

Julian hurriedly apologized.The visitor looked him up and down, then showed a friendly smile, and said, "Are you...a foreigner? Where did you come from? Mist? Cantellen? Or...Ainos?"

Julian was already very hungry, so he wanted to retreat with some side dishes first, and go back to discuss with Dai Ning what to eat before coming out, but now he was stopped by this person.He blinked, and replied with some hesitation: "Enos."

"It turned out to be Ainos, a neighboring country that is friendly to our country." The man smiled, "Then it's no wonder you're standing still. Ainos doesn't rely on the sea, so these things are rare, right?"

"Yes." Julian nodded. The wariness that arose when he saw a stranger dropped a lot because of the friendliness of the stranger. "There are a lot of things that I haven't seen before."
