Lord of the North

"I have a banquet to attend tonight, so I'll let someone take you around first, to familiarize yourself with the city of Lucca?"

At the dinner table, Violet looked at Jason apologetically and said that she really didn't expect that she would come to socialize with Jason on the first day of her return before she had a good time to visit Lucca City, and this kind of banquet has not yet There is no way to shirk.

"banquet?"

Jason put down the fork in his hand and wiped his mouth, looking at Violet curiously, the people in Lucca City have too sharp noses, right? Violet just came back and an invitation came to her door?

"Yes, a banquet invitation from a nobleman, whose name is Wheeler Teach, an honorary Earl."

These nobles who have a large manor near the city of Lucca but have no actual territory are the most troublesome.

Because they are the main members of the noble council, perhaps their ancestors had fiefs, but their descendants failed to live up to their expectations.

"This kind of person shouldn't have much influence on your Chamber of Commerce, right?"

Jason asked, like this kind of honorary nobleman who has no real power and may have the title of a member of the noble council, the help he can give to the Kyle Chamber of Commerce should be very limited.

"But he is one of the twelve speakers of the noble council of Lucca." Violet pouted, she didn't like that hypocritical guy at all.

"It's so big?"

Jason was a little surprised. The noble council can often decide the life and death of a small lord, and even some big nobles don't want to mess with them.

It's not that I'm afraid of them, it's just that it's troublesome. This organization is a fly that attracts people's dislike. It doesn't do business in the name of doing good for the kingdom. It always likes to catch a small mistake of the nobles, and then start to criticize.

This is the role of most noble councils. They are an institution used to check the decision-making of the crown and local government. They were originally established to prevent the king's policies from causing great harm to the country.

Later, it gradually became an institution to safeguard the rights and interests of the nobles, and it was specially used to oppose some policies of the royal family that harmed the privileges of the nobles.

However, in recent years, their rights have been suppressed by King Lopez, and the symbolic meaning has become more than the actual effect.

However, the status of the speaker of a local noble council is still very useful. After all, noble courts are generally presided over by such people.

However, the aristocratic councils in some places are still upright. They really care about the kingdom and the people, but the number is really rare.

"Can I follow you to see and see?" Jason suggested after thinking about it.

He wanted to find out what these nobles who stayed in Lucca looked like, and if they were capable, it was worth trying to win them over.

"Aren't you going to stop letting them know that you've come to Lucca City for the time being?" Violet asked suspiciously.

"They haven't met me before, so how would they know that I'm Jason Lopez? Just choose a pseudonym." Jason said indifferently.

Before he came to the north, he had been living in Sloven, the capital of the kingdom. How could these nobles know what he looked like.

"It's fine, but what identity do you want to use to attend the banquet?" It's not good to bring people in casually in this kind of occasion, you have to think of a good identity.

"Hey, I've already thought about this." Jason smiled, a little scary.

For some reason, Violet felt that something was going to happen after seeing Jason like this.

…………………

"Miss Violet, you are so beautiful today!"

In the evening, Violet brought Jason to a luxurious manor. A young man at the door looked at Violet dressed up in amazement, and praised him without hesitation.

"Thank you for your compliment, Master Semoa." Violet looked very pleased with his compliment and smiled happily.

But Jason in the back was not very happy. Looking carefully at the young man who was talking to Violet, it was not difficult to guess from their conversation that this person should be the heir of Earl Wheeler or something.

I have to say that the genes of these nobles are really good,

From Jason's point of view, the appearance of this young master Seymour is just a little bit worse.

The neat long brown hair, the right smile on the corner of the mouth, and the pair of talking eyes make him look very attractive.

Only these Jason is not upset, what really upset him was the next sentence he said.

"I don't know if I have the honor to ask you to dance tonight?" Simoa looked at Violet affectionately and said.

Hey, hey, there is a male companion behind him, okay? I'm going to go crazy if you ignore me like this!

"I'm really sorry, I just came back from other places today, and I'm a little tired." Violet said with an apologetic smile, she didn't dare to accept this kind of invitation, otherwise someone would really get mad on the spot.

He brought Lancelot out today, and the entire city of Lucca didn't know if anyone could block that man's sword.

"That's a pity," said Seymour, regretfully, but he seemed to try his best.

"I don't know if you have time tomorrow? I want to treat you to a meal."

It's endless, right? Jason stared behind him, but the other party didn't look at him at all.

"Let's talk about this another day." Violet smiled, and the meaning was obvious.

Today, when Jason was present, she had to maintain a firm enough position, so as not to give that guy a reason to go back and talk about herself.

"Okay, then I'll find time to ask you out again." Chasing girls is to have a thick skin, this is a saying that Semoa believes in.

There are not many girls worth pursuing like Violet. Her outstanding appearance and figure, extraordinary family background, and outstanding abilities all made Semoa fall in love with her at first sight.

Violet didn't respond, she just nodded with a slight smile, it would be a slap in the face to refuse after talking about this point.

But Semoa's kind of persuasive request made her very annoyed, and she almost couldn't help but close the door and let Jason go.

"Who is this?"

Finally, Semoa "noticed" Jason who had been following Violet all the time, with very unhappy eyes.

Finally saw me? I thought you were all girls.

"This is... my younger brother." Violet introduced with some embarrassment.

"Brother?" Semoa was puzzled. He had never heard of Violet having a younger brother.

"Brother, I met you a long time ago. This time he came to join me, so I brought him out to see the world." Anyway, I have already said it once with a cheeky face, and Violet's tone became more natural when she said the second sentence.

But this godbrother sounds weird.

"Oh, that's how it is."

Simoa nodded without thinking too much. He looked at Jason standing aside with an ordinary temperament and didn't ask much. It's always impolite to inquire about other people's family affairs.

Because Jason was an ordinary person in his previous life, it should be very easy to pretend to be an ordinary person. Even if he is asked to play the role of ** at this time, he can enter the scene in a second.

"Hello, my name is Caesar Alexander." Seeing him looking at him, Jason immediately stepped forward and announced his name.

However, Semoa may not understand what these two names represent at all.

"Hello, Alexander, my name is Semoa Teach, son of Earl Wheeler Teach, welcome to the banquet."

It was just bringing one more person into the arena, Violet still had to give face, so Semoah smiled brightly when greeting Jason.

"Greetings, Mr. Seymour."
