Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 813: Chapter 527: The Private Banquet Begins_2

“…Sir, why have you appeared here?”

After hesitating for a moment, Old Walter couldn’t help but ask tentatively.

Meanwhile, Taylor simply nodded slightly and stood silently behind Leo Ray.

“Master Walter, I forgot to mention, during the auction, Mr. Lane was the one who successfully bid for the opportunity to explore the relics with Lord Asher,” Gael stepped forward and introduced.

“I see, I remember this powerhouse did say that he was from the Royal Family…”

Old Walter nodded thoughtfully and then led the group of mercenaries to bow to Princess Ariel, Leo Ray, and Taylor, saying, “Thank you, Your Highness, Mr. Lane, and Mr. Taylor, for saving our lives!”

“You don’t need to be so polite. It was just a trivial matter,” Leo Ray nodded slightly.

In this way, everything made sense.

Since Taylor’s identity came from the mysterious powerhouse of the Coldflame Royal Family,

It was only natural for him to appear by the side of Princess Ariel, who also came from the same family.

And appearing by Ariel’s side could also indirectly prove Taylor’s identity as a Coldflame Royal Family powerhouse.

On the other side, while feeling shocked,

Old Walter’s face couldn’t help but show a puzzled expression, his white eyebrows knitting slightly.

Before this, he had already analyzed through his well-informed sources,

That the youngest Coldflame Princess had left the Royal Capital and ventured to Cyan Town,

Possibly to avoid the increasingly intense power struggles within the Royal Capital.

Furthermore, he had learned from his previous high-ranking noble employer that Princess Ariel had once been targeted for assassination by her own brother in the Royal Capital.

So, the question arose,

Why did Princess Ariel flee the Royal Capital when there was a Tier 5 powerhouse guarding her?

In addition, what was even more puzzling was that the two known Tier 5 powerhouses loyal to the Royal Family,

One was a formidable knight who used a knight’s sword and a long spear, and the other was an infinitely powerful mage; when did they have this terrifying warrior with a two-handed giant sword?

“Could it be… that the old king sent him out later to protect the princess?”

Feeling puzzled, Old Walter stroked his white beard and couldn’t help but fall into deep thought. “This is quite possible, after all, Princess Ariel is the youngest daughter loved most by the old king.”

Just after figuring this out, looking at the calm-looking Leo Ray, Old Walter again showed a puzzled face, secretly pondering in his heart, “Speaking of which, when did such a trustworthy young Mr. Lane appear by the side of the princess?”

“And why would this Tier 5 powerhouse stand behind the Mr. Lane?”

Thinking about this, Old Walter’s already heavily wrinkled forehead became even more furrowed, and he continued to ponder, “Could it be that the true master of this Tier 5 powerhouse is Mr. Lane himself? How could that be possible?”

Feeling strange, Old Walter covered up his confusion with a smile as he continued to chat with Leo Ray while secretly mulling it over in his heart.

“By the way, the princess is still staying in Cyan Town at the moment, and there is a rumor in Cyan Town that a Tier 5 powerhouse is in charge… In this case, could the true identity of this Mr. Lane be the newly appointed Lord of Cyan City?”

Realizing this, the slightly cloudy old eyes of Old Walter twitched slightly.

His old face showed another puzzled expression, “However, there is also a rumor that the new Lord of Cyan City is an Otherworldly Lord abundant in the wilderness. So, how could an Otherworldly Lord in the primitive hunting stage have the loyalty of a Tier 5 powerhouse?

No, the rumor about an Otherworldly Lord becoming the master of a city is itself a huge joke, isn’t it? In this case, what exactly is going on? It’s simply beyond my comprehension.”

Across from him, Leo Ray, who could see the clearly unnatural expression on Old Walter’s aged face, had already guessed most of the old man’s thoughts.

Back when he first took control of Cyan Town, the reason why he spread so much true and false information was to have it come into play at this moment.If one does not investigate carefully, it would undoubtedly be impossible to figure out one’s true identity.

As long as the identity of the Otherworldly Lord is not revealed, one’s territory in the Demonic Shadow Forest can naturally be protected to the greatest extent.

After all, except for the Otherworldly Lords who can quickly discern each other’s identities as if by telepathy,

In this continent where countless clans coexist, the native people of the otherworld who have almost no definition for the human race cannot distinguish the identity of a Lord through appearances.

Thinking of this, Leo Ray smiled faintly and changed the subject, “Well, Master Walter, Master Phil, and Master Swill, these delicacies will get cold, so let’s eat and chat.”

“Hehe, Mr. Lane is right, let’s eat and chat.”

Hearing this, Old Walter first exchanged glances with the other two Great Mages, and then responded with a smile.

At this point, Leo Ray noticed

Looking at the delicacies on the tables, the faces of the mercenaries could not help but reveal an eager expression.

It’s no wonder, after all, this is a private banquet hosted by the Viennas City Sanders’ Trading Conference, which far surpasses the standard of ordinary nobles in terms of the chef’s skill and the choice of ingredients.

Of course, for Leo Ray, who has a private Tier 3 chef team, this could only be considered average.

“Princess, please.”

Then, Old Walter bowed slightly and made a gesture for Princess Ariel to enter the dining area.

“No need for formalities, feel free to discuss anything with each other.”

Nodding to the old magician, Ariel elegantly took a step forward.

Meanwhile, Leo Ray signaled Gael to let the prepared band and dancers enter the scene, adding to the festive atmosphere while also stepping forward.

In just a short time, with the backdrop of the beautiful string music and graceful dancing, the luxurious private banquet officially began.

In the venue, besides a group of black-tailed musicians and red-clothed dancers,

Leo Ray’s group of thirteen people, plus the twelve led by Old Walter, were bustling around to get food.

At first, Leo Ray didn’t directly discuss hiring matters with Old Walter.

Instead, while casually picking food, he held his wine glass, watching the dancing performances at the other end of the hall with great interest.

Upon careful observation, these dancers with graceful figures were not ordinary people; from their aura, they were all Magic powerhouses around Tier 1 Five-star.

They could release all kinds of brilliant magic spheres, dancing along with them, which looked quite novel.

As for the members of the band, their skills were also excellent.

Many instruments were directly suspended in mid-air, played by magic power, guaranteeing a beautiful tone while also being highly entertaining and interesting.

It caused those mercenaries to occasionally let out a cheer.

At the same time, the most eye-catching people in the venue were naturally the Foodie Trio.

Aside from the feasting Scarlett and Bianca White, even the more elegant Red Night, unnoticed, became the center of attention.

The reason was that in front of her, a large stack of clean plates had already been set up…

Among the attentive crowd, the most astonished was Old Walter himself.

With his Tier 4 eight-Star Hydro Great Mage strength, he couldn’t see the depths of this female powerhouse at all.

In the end, the old magician, in order to save his dignity, hesitated a few times and still decided not to ask Leo Ray about Red Night’s actual level.

Like this, after almost finishing their meal, Leo Ray took his wine glass and walked towards Old Walter and the other two elder Great Mages.

And then he smiled, “Alright, three masters, it’s time for us to talk business.”
