502 Banquet for nobles (2)
When Viscount Henry ca over, he revealed a wide smile and said, "Count Zwein, thank you for your invitation. It is my honour to co to your banquet!"
Viscount Teomold couldn't help knitting his brows slightly when he heard this before turning to look at .
It was as if he was suspecting that I had lied to him.
I just revealed a helpless look and gave a small shrug when he looked at .
He imdiately understood what I ant.
Since this Viscount Henry was a relative of Count Zwein's wife, he had no choice but to send an invitation to him as well.
With this, Viscount Teomold revealed the sa smile as before as he gave a nod to show that he understood.
But when Viscount Henry saw this, he slightly knitted his brows.
Still, those brows quickly relaxed as he said, "Count Zwein, it seems that you have so bad company with you today. I advise you to chase away this bad company or you might get bitten by its dog mouth."
"Huh?" Viscount Teomold said as soon as he heard this before moving in front of and standing right in front of Viscount Henry with an ugly expression.
He looked right at him and said, "Are you talking about yourself? Or is there sothing else that you want to say?"
Viscount Henry didn't back down as he took a step forward and said, "I think that I've made it quite clear what I wanted to say. Is there anything that you want to disagree with?"
"You!" Viscount Teomold said before gritting his teeth.
The two of them just glared at each other without saying a thing.
It was clear that the relationship between them was bad, but it seed like it was even worse than I had thought.
I thought that they would only make subtle jabs at each other, but now it looked like they were about to fight in front of everyone like this.
I also noticed that a few of the nobles ca closer when they saw Viscount Henry and Viscount Teomold approaching each other like this.
With the way that they were standing, it seed that they were nobles that were either in Viscount Henry's faction or Viscount Teomold's faction.
If this kept going, it was very likely to end in a fight.
So I had no choice but to give a cough to remind them of where they were.
Both of them imdiately realized their mistakes and took a step back, but the disdainful looks towards each other were still on their faces.
It was clear that they wouldn't let things end here, but for now, they had no choice but to back down.
After stepping away, that didn't stop them from jabbing at each other with snide comnts, but I just let all of this slide.
The nobles that had moved forward also scattered after seeing both Viscount Henry and Viscount Teomold back down.
It seed that they wouldn't do anything, but they could still be considered a barrel of gunpowder that could explode at any mont.
It was better to keep watch over them.
Still, I never expected the effect that Viscount Henry would have to be this good.
I had invited him here to distract Viscount Teomold so he wouldn't notice anything, but for him to be this distracted…
He was so angry that he completely forgot about his suspicions and only focused on cursing Viscount Henry.
It seed like it wouldn't be a problem for my plan to succeed.
But I wouldn't let my guard down still, so I pulled out my second card.
"Everyone, please follow . I have another special guest that I want to introduce to everyone." Everyone's attention imdiately ca to the mont that I said these words.
They looked at with confused and curious looks, as if they were trying to figure out who I was talking about.
But I didn't give them any clues as I turned around to bring them into the hall that had been prepared for this banquet.
Once we were inside, they found that there was a group waiting for them inside.
The mont that they saw this group, they couldn't help revealing shocked looks.
After all, even a fool would be able to recognize who this group was.
It was two groups actually that made up this one group and the two groups had very different appearances.
One was made up of beautiful n and won who all had pointed ears.
The other was made up of short rough n and a single young girl.
These were the elves and dwarves that were standing in front of all these nobles.
As they all stared at these elves and dwarves in shock, I ca forward to stand in front of them and turned to face the nobles to say, "I've invited so friends to this banquet today, I hope that all of you can get along with them."
The mont that the nobles heard this, all of their eyes suddenly lit up.
They never would have expected such a large benefit for them today.
This was their chance to create a relationship with both the elves and the dwarves.
This was not a chance that could be looked down on.
Just the relationship that he had built with the elves and dwarves had allowed Count Zwein to reach his current status, so that was just how important this relationship was.
If they were able to build a relationship as well…
The nobles all looked at each other with competitive looks.
After all, they knew that the other nobles all thought the sa thing as they did.
So there were no allies for them to rely on in this fight.
But, they wouldn't let their grudges get between them and this chance.
This was all about the elves and dwarves, so they wouldn't bother with sabotaging each other.
Seeing that they were ready, I said, "Then let's begin this banquet. I hope that everyone enjoys socializing with each other."
Ti to cleanse league from my system...
