Mystic Dominator

The banquet was also held inside the castle.

After receiving the notice, Ronald, who had nothing to prepare, immediately left the room with Costat.

Under the leadership of [Nikos].

They only walked a few hundred meters inside the castle, and after going around several buildings with different functions, they saw the venue where the banquet was held.

It was different from the few banquets Ronald had attended in the past.

[Nikos] The banquet venue for entertaining distinguished guests did not have any indoor parts, but chose an open-air circular square as the venue. Ronald looked around carefully and quickly determined the basic shape of this place.

This is a dish-shaped basin with a generally circular outline. It is neatly cut and each bluestone brick is large enough for one person to sit on it and is laid out in a stepped manner. On top of it is the banquet structure that will be added later.

Putting aside these redundant buildings, you can actually see a lot of things similar to the style of the Roman Congress Square.

Follow the waiter's instructions and take your seat.

As the strongest level one spellcaster among the guests, Ronald's position was arranged to Claudia's right. After briefly greeting Her Royal Highness the Princess, Ronald heard Costate behind him remind him in a low voice:

"Sir, when we held the banquet last night, I discovered that there seemed to be something underneath the ground here."

"Oh?" Ronald nodded imperceptibly.

Then his attention turned to the bottom. Ronald's reconnaissance spell did not find any gaps in the terrain under the ground, and there was no reaction to the magic power fluctuations.

But only the soul-based ability from "The Divine Comedy - Paradise" allowed Ronald to detect some subtle reactions.

In this place that is now used as a banquet venue.

In fact, there are a certain number of souls sleeping. Even if they are inactive at the moment, Ronald can feel the desire to fight hidden in these souls while sitting peacefully on the ground.

"..."

Ronald's expression changed.

Based on the knowledge he possesses, the souls in this world that can leave traces after death must only appear if their emotions were very intense before death, or their obsessions cannot be resolved.

It is definitely a rare existence that is only one in a hundred; and based on the situation that Ronald perceives now... there must be a lot of dead people buried here.

A sunken circular square.

And there are also a lot of warrior souls sleeping there.

The entire castle once served as a military fortress.

When the three conditions came together, Ronald immediately realized the past purpose of this place - a place of execution for prisoners, or a gladiatorial arena for people to watch life-and-death duels.

The royal family of [Nikos] now uses this kind of place as a banquet venue.

It really makes people don’t know how to evaluate it.

Although he had mixed feelings, Ronald still did not express his opinion on this.

After all, this is the castle of the [Nikos] royal family.

Since the small anomaly under the ground is not a trap for Greed personnel, he, as a guest, will naturally not be too troublesome.

It was getting late now, and the people at [Nikos] had no intention of keeping the guests waiting here. Only three or five minutes after Ronald took his seat, there was a sound of footsteps on the road leading deeper into the castle.

before these people arrived.

Claudia on Ronald's left seemed to be interested, and then introduced to Ronald:

"Ronald, those coming over there are members of the royal family of [Nikos]. I remember you should know some of them, right?"

"The Countess and I met in the Springs before. I don't know if we can meet again this time."

Ronald responded to Claudia and turned to look at the same time.

result……

Although the mood is a little turbulent, it is also reasonable.

[Nikos] The people attending the banquet here are naturally the Countess Leticia and her prince husband, and just behind the two of them, Luna, who Ronald just got rid of yesterday, is there.

"hehe……"

"If you think about it carefully, it's not a problem."

In the process of getting along with herself, Luna's performance in various aspects reflected her identity. It's just that I don't know what the child's status is in the royal family, so I dared to take such a step of escaping yesterday.

And Ronald also had doubts in his mind.

He knew Countess Leticia's abilities well. A small thing can make a big difference. The magic possessed by the [Nikos] royal family should not be weak either. So in yesterday's experience, why did Luna say that she had no combat capabilities?

"Ronald, are you curious about the girl?"

Ronald set his sights on Luna, and it was impossible for Claudia, who was talking to him, not to notice. So Her Royal Highness the Princess smiled slightly and immediately reported the other party's information:

"This is Leticia's daughter Filia. She didn't attend yesterday when she heard that she was in poor health. She came to the banquet after her health improved today. And don't look at it, she is only fourteen years old - anyone who has seen the beauty of this princess All the handsome young men are lining up to pursue her."

Claudia's introduction was very impressive.

But in the eyes of Ronald, who was familiar with her, there was something unnatural about it.

Ronald thought briefly and immediately reminded in a low voice:

"Claudia, you are actually not very old. Don't imitate His Majesty Danterian in speaking in private."

"..."

Ronald never expected to be reminded like this by himself.

——Claudia unexpectedly lost her composure!

When the princess heard this, her face turned red after being stunned for two seconds, obviously very embarrassed.

But Claudia has been trained in royal life since she was a child.

This kind of gaffe only lasted for one breath, and Claudia adjusted her expression again, and she no longer looked the same as before.

"Ronald, you are so brave!"

"Even within Greed, there are not many people who would talk to me like this."

Claudia seemed to be scolding Ronald, but the smile in her eyes was not hidden.

Seeing Her Royal Highness's expression, Ronald apologized understandingly:

"Then I'm really sorry, my respected princess..."

Suddenly, Ronald's voice trailed off.

Because he suddenly realized that after Claudia introduced the mother-daughter relationship between Luna and the Countess, an issue that could not be ignored was placed in front of him.

Ronald was thinking about it for a while, and soon couldn't help but ask:

"Wait, Claudia! That Countess...I remember she was not even thirty this year?"

"It is not polite to discuss a lady's age." Claudia scolded Ronald again, but at the same time, she marked two numbers for Ronald with her fingers under the dining table.

Two, eight...

The countess is twenty-eight years old, and her daughter Luna is fourteen.

So when she was fourteen years old, Countess Leticia had already given birth to Luna, and her pregnancy time for Luna had to be pushed back one year!

"..."

At this time, Luna's eyes happened to spot Ronald at the banquet.

Faced with the strange look in the girl's eyes.

Ronald's current mood became weird in this unspeakable state.
