Chapter 13 Banquet March

He noticed the subtle tremor of Dick's body, and captured the deep sadness in his words;

Shia gently pressed her face against Dick's chest, one hand naturally clutching his waist and the other rhythmically patting his back;

It was like coaxing a child who was wronged outside, and said softly with heartache and gentleness:

"Okay, Dick, I know you've been having too hard for a while.

"But it's all over, don't worry. Don't worry, no matter what will happen in the future, I will always be by your side and support you unswervingly."

The two hugged each other tightly until Barbara's chuck came around, and Dick finally let go of his arms.

Xiya looked at him with a blush on her face, her eyes undodged.

Dick took out the spoils he had obtained from his previous hunt for the Black Cat Mercenary Group - a thick gold necklace.

He carefully cleaned it with soapy water six times. At this moment, the necklace was flowing with golden luster under the light, which was very eye-catching.

Dick handed the necklace to Chia with anticipation, "This is my gift to you, I have never given you a gift."

"Is this a gold necklace?" Xiya exclaimed in surprise.

Although she was an orphan, she was raised by Barbara since childhood. She lived a pampered life and never lacked anything.

At this moment, facing Dick's simple gift, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

However, she quickly adjusted her expression and a sweet smile appeared on her face again.

At this moment, two noble girls dressed in colorful clothes walked by the side with shaking fans.

They couldn't help laughing when they saw the gift Dick took out.

Dick looked in the voice and saw the mockery and contempt on the faces of the two men.

"What a rare treasure!" A noble lady covered her red lips with a feather fan. "This material and workmanship are far more than the diamond-inlaid neck ring of the big jeweler Val's house!"

"It's true. The sorcerer's vision is indeed different from that of our mortals." Another noble lady echoed, shaking the small fan in her hand.

Dick frowned slightly, and was about to speak up to scold them for meddling in other people's business.

Barbara, who was standing beside her, looked at the scene with interest and did not speak out.

Xiya was originally a little hesitant about the necklace, but after hearing the words of the two noble ladies, she said to Dick without hesitation: "Dick, please put it on."

"Ah?" Dick was a little surprised.

"I said I'll help me put on my necklace now. I like this gift very much." Xiya repeated.

Dick held his breath and walked the necklace around Shia's swan-like neck, and the metal buckle slipped between his fingers three times before barely buckled it.

The tiny fluff on the back of Xiya's neck trembled slightly with the movement, and the warm breath of rose fragrance brushed across the back of his hand.

Her fingertips ran through the unsanded buckles on the necklace, and the coolness of metal penetrated into her skin.

She suddenly remembered that on her sixteenth birthday, Barbara gave her a mitsilver necklace decorated with starry red diamonds;

But at this moment, the rough warmth on her chest made her heart beat a little faster.

She held his arm with her backhand, raised her jaw, and the moonstone earrings drew a cold arc in the candlelight.

"The jewelry appreciation course for both of you is time to re-examine. After all, not everyone can understand it. The gift of the witch hunter is thousands of times more precious than the dead objects in the jewelry box."

The two men were still beautiful and charming when they saw Xiya put on the gifts they saw that they were vulgar. For some reason, a hint of ashamed suddenly surged in their hearts.

They muttered a few words in a low voice and left in a hurry.

"You two little guys are really interesting."

Barbara shook the red wine in the goblet, and her red nails tapped on the wall:

"Dick, feeding the dragon gold coins will only hurt its teeth. Next time you might as well go to the Royal Library to find the "Panda Continental Jewelry Map"?"

Dick suddenly realized that he, who came from an ordinary family, was the best gift.

What he gave to Xiya was not only a necklace, but also a slump boy clumsily holding the most precious "treasure" in front of the princess.

In order to take care of his face, the girl in front of her actually put on the necklace without hesitation.

Dick felt a little ashamed, and he whispered to Shia:

"Xia, next time, I will definitely choose a better gift for you."

"What gift?" Xiya's eyes shone brightly under her trembling thick eyelashes.

Dick was speechless for a moment, "Well, how about the heavier gold necklace?"

"Okay." Xiya smiled sweetly.

Barbara next to her couldn't help laughing and turned around to a table in the palace.

There, several nobles were chatting and joking.

Seeing Barbara coming, the eyes of these nobles suddenly lit up, and the compliments in their mouths surged like a tide, and the flattery was beyond words.

Barbara just smiled and responded occasionally, keeping the right distance from everyone, obviously being able to handle this kind of interpersonal communication.

Soon, Queen Maeve, surrounded by a group of nobles, came to the center of the banquet, and her eyes glanced around her.

Everyone knew that the queen had something to say, so they calmed down.

Dick and Shia found a corner and whispered quietly.

Dick often tells some silly jokes from his previous life, which makes Xiya fall back and forth.

Of course, these jokes are not like the cold jokes he just told Weigo.

"Now the Misty Mountain Army invades the Northern Territory. I will lead everyone to fight tomorrow. I hope you can help you all."

"Of course we obey your order." The nobles responded immediately.

Queen Maeve seemed to enjoy this feeling of controlling the overall situation. She looked at Dick.

"And, this time, we are helping us resist the savages of the Mist Mountain. Dick, the leader of the Witch Hunter Cult, as well as the masters of the Witch Hunter, and Weil and Ajie. Let us welcome them with warm applause."

The nobles around were stunned for a moment, then clapped, and the applause was deafening.

"Dick, aren't you going to say something?" Queen Maeve looked at Dick with a smile.

Dick waved his hand gently, and Queen Maeve stopped trying to force her, then walked to other seats and started to greet everyone.

Dick whispered to Shia while observing everyone present.

He had seen the Marquis Zubacci and the Earl Mann, two of the three described on the letter.

Just as he was looking for a third person, he accidentally found that Ajie was having a lot of chatting with a noble lady.

Not long after, the noble lady took Ajie's arm with a shy face and walked towards a corner of the palace, which seemed to be the direction to the rest room.

Dick withdrew his gaze and thought to himself:

This Ajie performed a lot of "hat tricks" for Xiao Ye.

No wonder Xiaoye’s loyal wet tongue puppy Ibrahimovic followed. It seems that this Ajie is creating opportunities for Ibrahimovic!

Dick subconsciously looked for the 'love killer' Weir again, and saw Weir chatting and laughing with a man at the long table in another corner.

After a closer look, the man was the warlock Weigo who had a very speculative conversation with him just now.

Dick breathed a sigh of relief:

The older Vail is, the more sensible he is. After experiencing the Kardashian incident, he finally matures a lot.

Now that I have become the leader of the Demon Hunter Cult, I have all kinds of people in the team, which is not easy to manage.

The palace gate was pushed open again, and a group of guards wearing silver armor and weapons surrounded several people and stepped into the hall.

Dick's eyes sterned, his eyes falling on the core figures surrounded by everyone.

That was a man who was nearly forty years old and was Prince James, the younger brother of Queen Maeve.

On the left of the prince, there was a young man with a rebellious expression, and it was Brownie.
