Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Fireworks ... "Eric shook his head and lost his smile, "Those who are qualified to come here to participate in the Knight Clan should all have a certain reputation and strength within their own country, right? How can a girl who comes from such a family still be so desirous of fireworks?"

"Did I say it was ordinary fireworks?" Meyer slightly blankly glanced at Eric and said, "The fireworks that will appear later on are made with magic, they are completely different from those made with gunpowder, and they are guaranteed to be an eye-opening experience for you. ..."

Eric couldn't help but laugh out loud again.

Using magic to create dazzling sound and light effects was something he had gotten tired of before he was fifteen ...

"What is it that produces magical pyrotechnics?" Eric asked with interest, "Is it a person or a scroll?"

"Both wizards and magic scrolls!" After a pause, Meyer added, "Generally speaking, it's the magic scrolls that are the mainstay, and the wizard just plays a role in deployment!"

Eric nodded, he thought the same. The magic elements on Earth were simply too thin, even for a small trick like magic fireworks, it was believed that apart from Eric himself, there were not many magicians who could wield them at will.

One or two magical fireworks were certainly not suitable for such a high-profile gathering as the Knights' Convention, and not many "local" magicians could release large-scale fireworks. In that case, magic scrolls that could store magic in advance became the inevitable choice!

The magical materials on Earth were far more abundant than in Celestia, and the cost of magic scrolls was relatively cheap. On such an occasion, I believe that the organizing committee of the Knights' Convention should not be stingy!

"How much does it cost to buy a magic pyrotechnic scroll like that?" Eric was somewhat curious. Although he could be said to be the richest man in the world now if the price was right. He wouldn't mind getting a business nickname of "Scroll King".

But to his surprise, Meyer shook his head and said, "Scrolls don't cost anything! Those are prepared by the invited magicians themselves ..."

"Then how much money is needed to invite a wizard like that?"

"Eric, why do you know about money?"

Meyer gave Eric a disgruntled blank look. Saying, "But any magician invited here is bound to be on good terms with the knight community. If we talk about money, it's vulgar ..."

Eric was slightly surprised--this kind of "no profit" thing could be done by someone willing to do it.

Seemingly irritated by the "mercenary" look on Eric's face, Meyer frowns slightly and says, "Although we don't pay for it, the gifts we attach to each Knight's Convention after it's over far exceeds what the wizards pay for it... ..."

Why does this ... sound so much like "tax evasion"?

Just as Eric and Meyer were whispering their way to a secluded corner, a girl who was a maid of honor came up behind them, stopped in front of them, and said in a respectful voice, "Ms. Meyer, I'm very sorry to have disturbed you. My lady says that if it is convenient for you, please follow me, she would like to see you and this gentleman."

Meyer seemed to recognize this maid and nodded, then pulled Eric to follow the maid with slow steps.

At the corner of the square, there were several three-story wooden attics. On the third floor of one of the exquisitely decorated attics, a beautiful woman was waving at Meyer who was gradually walking in from the window, and Meyer responded with a sincere smile.

This was the first time Eric had seen Meyer reveal such a heartfelt smile when facing someone other than him!

It seems that the status of this beautiful woman in Meyer's heart is not ordinary!

Very quickly, Eric was pulled up to the attic by Meyer.

On the third floor of the attic, there were seven or eight women, but only the noblewoman in her mid-teens who was leaning against the window was seated, and the others who were standing were supposed to be maids of honor.

As soon as she saw Meyer, the beautiful woman, who was all noble, raised her hands slightly and called softly, "My dear Meyer, come over here and let me have a good look ..."

"Aunt Catherine ...," Meyer let go of Eric, sprinted over and squatted down. Placing his head gently on the beautiful woman's thigh.

The beautiful woman tenderly stroked Meyer's hair and harmonized, "My dear Meyer, how have you been lately ..."

Eric was unfortunately ignored by the two beautiful women who were blinded by affection, and even the maids next to him didn't pay attention to him.

However, he didn't care and stood there quietly, not in a hurry, just carefully observing the beautiful woman who was whispering with Meyer.

Because of Merly's blessing, Eric had been forced to understand the dress code of the upper-class nobles for a few days, so he could easily understand the status of this beautiful woman in the upper-class society from her clothes.

Coupled with her demeanor and mannerisms, Eric could be sure that the woman in front of him was a noblewoman from a prestigious family and talented in her own right.

Of course, for Eric, this kind of status of the noblewoman is nothing, even if she and Meyer's relationship is extraordinary, but also can't let Eric be moved by it.

Eric's calm and relaxed appearance had aroused the curiosity of the noblewoman more and more.

When the beautiful woman saw from afar that her niece was quite close to a young man, she was very surprised.

Because she knew that her cold niece had always rejected people, how could she suddenly become so close to a male?

Coupled with a certain reason, she had hurriedly asked the maid to go downstairs and lead them up, and deliberately gave that teenage boy a cold shoulder.

But this teenage boy's behavior made it out of her expectation and deepened her curiosity. Because this kind of temperament that the teenage boy displayed was simply not something that an ordinary person could possess.

Thus, this beautiful woman began to inquire about Eric's identity, "My dear Meyer, is this your boyfriend? You've finally gotten the hang of it! Do you know how much Auntie was worried that you wouldn't be able to get married ..."

"Aunt Catherine ..." Meyer pouted, "What are you babbling about?"

"Giggling ..." with a girlish laugh, Aunt Catherine patted Meyer on the head and said, "Aunt Catherine isn't talking nonsense, how could our loveliest Miss Meyer not get married? I don't know how many handsome young men are looking at you!"

"Aunt Catherine, you don't talk nonsense ..."

"Well, don't say it, don't say it ..." Catherine laughed a little mischievously, "You can't let your boyfriend misunderstand ... "

"Catherine, stop that nonsense!"

Meyer left Catherine's embrace and stood up with a straight face, "He's not my boyfriend!"

Hearing Meyer directly call her by her first name, Catherine knew that her niece was a bit angry.

At that moment, she stopped joking and just asked curiously, "Since he's not your boyfriend, then why are you guys so close?"

"He is my newly recognized brother ..."

"Brother? I know ..." Catherine had a smile on her face, "Isn't sibling love popular these days? Auntie had a 'brother' like that too ..."

Meyer didn't pay any more attention to her somewhat verbose aunt, and faintly said to Eric, "Eric, this is my mother's youngest sister, you can call her 'Catherine', or you can call her 'Auntie' after me."

Meyer's introduction was fairly simple, saying nothing but her name.

While Eric was unimpressed by this, Catherine was a little disconcerted.

She was eager to find out who Eric was, but by the look on Meyer's face right now, she knew that if she pressed on, she would probably be asking for embarrassment.

Although she did not dare to ask deeper, she was not willing to give up just like that. Therefore, Catherine politely said, "Meyer, do you not have a boyfriend now?"

Meyer raised her eyes and resumed her iceberg beauty state, "How many times do you want me to say it?"

"No is good!" Catherine revealed a greatly relieved smile and said, "If you did have a boyfriend, that would be a problem!"

"How so?" Meyer raised an eyebrow.

Without answering, Catherine asked, "You know the Geroge family in E, right?"

"Of course I know." Meyer nodded, "Isn't it that family that has a blood relationship with the royal family of Country E and whose power is rumored to be above the royal family?"

"Not bad, it's exactly that Geroge family." Catherine's complexion solemnized, "The legend is true! The Geroge family which controls nearly half of the knights and magicians in the whole of England is the number one great family in the country of E. Its strength is not comparable to that of the royal family of the country of E. ..."

"Aunt Catherine, why are you telling me this?" Meyer was a bit puzzled, "It's not like I have anything to do with the Geroge family ..."

"It's almost there ..." Catherine sighed softly.

"What do you mean?" Meyer had some bad vibes. Continue your adventure with My Virtual Library Empire

Again, without answering, Catherine asked, "Do you know Aurth-Geroge?"

Thinking for a moment, Meyer nodded, "I met him a few months ago, seems to be the second in line to the Geroge family ..."

"That's him!" Catherine looked at Meyer and said, "Before coming to the Knights' Convention, Aurth personally came to your grandfather's house and said that he was willing to give up his current status and join the Broumell family to marry you ..."

Eric raised an eyebrow slightly. If it was in China, then Aurth's behavior would be a bit of "taking both money and sex". But in Europe, where noble status is emphasized, his behavior is a sign of infatuation!
