Chapter 472: Chapter 472 Breakfast
“Sister Jane, you’ve been following
all along, haven’t you?”
It seems that Jane had been waiting in the room all along.
In fact, she had been secretly trailing Han Dong since he left his quarters and started the tour of the manor with the maid.
“You noticed?”
Jane seed surprised. After all, she believed she had remained concealed the whole ti without revealing any flaws, even the Blood Descendants in the manor did not notice.
“It took
until the end to accidentally notice… It seems you still don’t trust , Jane.”
“You and that maid were in the secret room for a long ti. What did you say in private?”
“Rather than saying what I said, I should say what I did.” Han Dong intentionally revealed a rather shrunken smile.
“Shaless!”
“Since you’ve been following
all the ti, you must have seen the lost knight… What you should be more worried about are these self-fallen guys, right?
Besides, by the ti the banquet cos, they will beco our enemies.”
“What do you an?”
“I made a deal with that maid, she has told
detailed information about the “Red banquet”… After breakfast, I will organize everyone to gather in a secluded area and explain about the Red banquet in detail.
This banquet is very important to Brother Lucius.”
Jane did not say more, she retreated a step and hid her body in the shadows.
“Wait, Jane….”
“What is it?”
“Since you have been following
all night without arousing any Blood Descendant’s notice… It shows that Jane’s stealth skills are remarkable, it can also be used in the Scarlet Manor, I have a job I want Jane to do.”
“No…” Jane, who’s already been tricked twice, imdiately refused.
“Jane, please hear
out… After all, this matter concerns the whole squad, especially the interests of Captain Lucius.”
Han Dong deliberately brought up Lucius and slowly explained the special task to Jane.
Jane was in deep thought after hearing the plan.
“…I’ll consider it.”
“You’ve worked hard, Jane.”
Now that she’s said that, Han Dong was sure Jane would do it.
As Jane left, Han Dong imdiately laid down on the bed, revealing a strange smile.
“I didn’t expect to get information about the ‘Red Banquet’ in advance, the nature of the banquet turned out to be like this.
Next is to see how Brother Lucius performs, if he shines at the banquet, I can carry out he ‘Land Deed Takeover” plan with a legitimate reason.
As the yellow-robed man said.
If I can get such a ‘movable land deed’, many things will be much simpler in the future.
If there really cos a day when I can’t stay in the Holy City anymore, it will be an important support for
to live outside the city.”
Han Dong never disregarded ‘risks’.
Even with Mr. Black White supporting him, if the real problem goes to council level, it would be really lucky that he as a [mutant] wasn’t directly killed, being sentenced to permanent exile would be inevitable.
Over the years, Han Dong had invested a lot of effort to build up the manor outside the city and develop forces in the manor to prepare for this risk.
“Master, what are you thinking about?” Nicole was leaning on the side of the bed, staring at him with her big eyes.
“Nothing… There may be a big battle in the later stage of this trip to the manor, Nicole, as one of the main mbers, must perform well.”
“Okay! As long as the Master gives
more essence.”
“Take as much as you want…”
…
The next day.
There is no day and night under the Eternal Night State outside the city.
Perhaps because of Han Dong’s special status as a lord who personally attended the Red Banquet, the Count specifically instructed his servants to light all the candles in the mansion during the white period.
Han Dong and his party were also led by the maid to the dining room to have breakfast with the Count.
The dining area was five ters high, and there were more than a hundred candles placed on the cross-shaped chandelier hanging from the top.
The Count, with his spiked eye protection on, was already seated at the head of the table.
“If you have any dissatisfaction with the al, or if it does not suit your taste, you can have the kitchen redo it at once… Lord Nicholas, did you rest well last night?”
“Very comfortable.”
“That’s good, please make sure to attend the important Red Banquet, which is held once every few years, in the best ntal state. Alright, everyone, let’s eat.”
Quite a lavish roast at breakfast.
It was also prepared according to human habits, with the roast at for Han Dong and others heated to dium well.
There was no blood brew ingredient in the red wine or the roast at, so it was safe to eat.
Only the Count and Han Dong’s party were in the dining room.
Even the butler, who is also a Mature Body-Demon, just stood on the side directing the servants to ti the serving.
“Count, last night I had a maid take
on a tour of the manor. I happened to run into a knight from the Holy City on the way… Why didn’t they co to dine here?”
“They don’t have the privilege to dine with … did these greedy knights bother you?”
The word ‘greedy’ said by the Scarlet Count and used to describe the knights of the Holy City seed a bit ironic…
“Not at all.”
“These knights have good physiques. Although they didn’t bring their invitations when they ca to my manor… The hospitable owner of my manor imdiately generously gave them the opportunity to attend the Red Banquet.
If they have bothered you, please feel free to tell .
They are robust, and I already have a destination for the high-quality ingredients for today and tomorrow.
Haha! It’s just a joke, I am a rather compassionate person.”
During the al, the Count would often burst into manic laughter due to his own jokes.
“Nurous guests invited to the event will arrive today and tomorrow. I will try my best to arrange everyone’s activity ti so as not to et before the banquet, reducing the possibility of unexpected incidents.
At the sa ti, I also hope that you don’t provoke troubles.
The Red Banquet is very important to
and there must be no mistakes.
Otherwise, I might turn you into blood corpses, bind you to the needle chair, and make you passively participate in the banquet…
Hahaha! It’s just a joke, I can’t do such a cruel thing.
I like to joke around, I hope you don’t mind. Haha!”
And so, the breakfast ended in the Count’s laughter.
As Han Dong was preparing to gather his team to discuss about the Red Banquet.
The tall butler, who looked like a bamboo pole, seed to have received so news. He reported to the Count in a low voice.
“Hmm…” After the Count nodded, he turned his gaze to Han Dong.
“Lord Nicholas, would you like to accompany
to the mountain top? Just got a report that a bunch of guys with invitations have co to the manor to intentionally cause trouble.
The invitations are marked with the Master’s mark, their actions disregard the Master and touch my bottom line.
Would you like to co and play with ?”
“Alright.” Without hesitation, Han Dong nodded, signaling others to return to their rooms first.
