Blood Lord of War

Chapter 133 You Like Him, Don't You?
Robin had heard of the Ice Banner family. They were a second-tier family in the Northern Territory after Snow Eagle and Golden Rose, and their status and strength should not be underestimated.The Bingqi family and the Xueying family have been friends for generations, and most of the two families have relatives by marriage. The wife of Olof Xueying, the head of the government affairs department, is from the Bingqi family.

"I am the son of the Marquis of Ice Banner, Ed Ice Banner."

Ed raised his chin, and his tone was full of pride. He looked at Robin as if to say: I come from a famous family, which is different from a soil worm lord like you in the wasteland.

Robin could see that this guy named Ed seemed to be full of hostility towards him.But Robin didn't care about it. He understood a truth very early on, you can't make everyone like you.

"Well, you're good." Robin sat in his seat and nodded his head in a showy manner, with a lukewarm attitude.

Robin's attitude immediately made Ed even more annoyed, and he thought to himself: In the past, when other people saw him, which one didn't they just nodded and bowed to please him? This Robin is too arrogant to be so rude in front of this young master.

A mere pioneering lord, knowing my noble status, dared to sit down and didn't even stand up.It's a pity that this is Duke Xueying's banquet, otherwise, I must teach this rude person a lesson!
Ed ignored Robin, he turned his head to look at Helen, and immediately changed his face, showing a sunny smile on his face.

"Helen, how boring you are sitting here, why don't you come with us, let's have a drink and chat."

Ed wanted to snatch Helen away from Robin. After he finished speaking, other noble children followed suit.

"Yes, Miss Helen, come and play with us."

"I want to hear Miss Helen's story about you leading the soldiers."

Facing everyone's warm invitation, Helen was unmoved.

"Thank you for your invitation. I prefer to be quiet. It's good to sit here. Go and play and have fun." Helen said with a smile. Although she was polite, she was far away from others.

After finishing speaking, Helen sat back opposite Robin.

Seeing that Helen couldn't be snatched away, Ed became even more annoyed.Suddenly, he had an idea and a smile appeared on his face.

He walked to Helen's side, leaned down and whispered in Helen's ear: "Helen, come with me, my father has something to tell you, it's inconvenient to say it here."

When Helen heard this, her expression immediately became serious. She had to listen to the words of the Marquis of Ice Banner.

"Sorry, Robin, I'm sorry." Helen stood up again, showing an apologetic expression to Robin.

Robin nodded: "Go and do your work."

Ed took Helen and left. Before leaving, Ed showed Robin a smug smile, as if announcing his victory to Robin: Did you see that?Helen finally chose me.

Robin looked puzzled, but he didn't care.

After Helen and Ed left, the other noble children also left one after another. They didn't bother to be with a wasteland lord.

Ed took Helen out of the banquet hall and came to the corridor outside,

"That Robin was really invited by Lord Augustus?" Ed suddenly asked, but he still found it unbelievable.

"That's right." Helen replied affirmatively.

"He's just an unpopular pioneer lord, why did the Duke invite him?" Ed's words were full of anger and jealousy.

"You don't know Robin, there's something special about him."

"I don't see what's so special about him. Your Excellency the Duke may also miss it sometimes."

Helen frowned, showing displeasure: "Your Excellency, the Duke will never miss you."

The two came to a secluded place, and there was no one around. Helen finally couldn't help but ask:

"Ed, what do you want to tell me, Lord Marquis? Can you say it?"

Ed stopped in his tracks. He turned around with a handsome smile on his face: "I'm sorry, Helen. I was lying. Actually, my father has nothing to tell you."

"You lied to me?" Helen was surprised and angry.

"I just want to be alone with you for a while." Ed quickly explained.

Helen sighed helplessly, she didn't expect Ed to do such a naive thing when he was so old.

"Sorry Ed, I have other things to do, so I'm sorry I can't accompany you." After finishing speaking, Helen turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing that Helen was about to leave, Ed immediately became angry. He hurried forward two steps and stood in front of Helen.

"Are you going back to that Robin?" Ed asked angrily.

"Ed, where I'm going, it has nothing to do with you." Being blocked by Ed, Helen's temper also became a little bit.

"What's so good about that Robin? He's a pioneer lord. Is he as handsome as me? Is he as good as me? In terms of ability and status, how can I not compare to him? Why would you rather sit next to him, but Would you like to stay with me for a few minutes?"

Ed completely broke out, almost roaring out loud.

Helen took a deep breath. At this time, she still maintained her rationality. Ed was the son of the Marquis of the Ice Banner. No matter how much she hated him, in order to maintain the alliance between the two families, Helen had to suppress the anger in her heart.

"Baron Robin is my father's guest, so it's only natural for me to accompany him. Ed, you should calm down."

"I see, you like that Robin, don't you?"

Ed had already lost his mind due to jealous rage, he took a step forward and grabbed Helen's wrist.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Let me go." Feeling baffled, Helen's tone suddenly turned cold.

At this time, a male servant appeared at the corner of the corridor. When he saw Helen, he immediately walked over quickly.

"Miss Helen, Lord Olof is looking for you."

The male servant came to Helen, lowered his head, and said respectfully.

Helen nodded at him, then looked at Ed again: "Sorry Ed, I'm sorry."

The appearance of the male servant also brought Ed back to his senses. He also suddenly realized that he had lost his composure just now, and hurriedly let go of Helen's wrist, explaining in a panic:
"I'm sorry, Helen, I got excited...it's all because of that Robin. I got confused when I saw you with him."

Helen looked at Ed with disappointment in her eyes, she didn't say anything, turned around and left with the male servant.

Ed watched Helen's leaving back, and his heart was gradually filled with anger.It is always easier to blame others than to reflect on yourself, and Ed blamed Robin for his gaffe just now.

It's all because of this annoying Robin who put a bar between me and Helen, causing us to be at odds.

Ed slowly clenched his fists, his eyebrows were tightly knit together, and a stern expression appeared on his face.

Except for me, no man is allowed to approach Helen, I must kick this hateful Robin away!

……

Robin was still sitting alone in the corner of the banquet. In the lively hall, he was like a forgotten island.However, he is also very contented and enjoys the current state of not being disturbed by others.

After eating and drinking, Robin leaned comfortably on the chair and rinsed his mouth with fine red wine.Suddenly, I saw Ed walking towards him angrily.

Robin showed a helpless expression, well, the moment of peace is gone again.

Ed walked to Robin's desk with a bad expression and looked down at Robin.

"Baron Robin, let me just ask, why were you invited by Duke Snow Eagle?" Ed was very unconvinced.

Holding the goblet in one hand, Robin shrugged his shoulders: "You should ask Duke Snow Eagle about this."

Ed sneered: "Your Excellency the Duke thinks highly of you, I think you may have some special qualities. But, please make your position clear, there is no possibility between you and Miss Helen."

Robin frowned and looked confused, thinking what nonsense is this guy talking about here?

"I am the son of the Marquis of Ice Banner. Our family has been married to the Xueying family for generations. Obviously, my identity and status are more suitable for Helen. And you, just a little baron of the wasteland, don't be a toad trying to eat swans." Meat." Ed sneered.

"Wait, wait." Robin hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop with a headache, "What are you talking about? I didn't say I wanted to pursue Helen?"

Ed sneered disdainfully, but he didn't believe it at all.

"Do you think I'll believe your lies? Robin, I've seen too many people like you. I know what you're thinking. You want to climb the high branch of the Snow Eagle family, and then you can become a master in one fell swoop." .I advise you not to daydream, you and us are people from two different worlds."

Robin was speechless, is there such a fool in the world?I have already told you clearly!
"Helen will be my wife sooner or later, and she will marry into our Ice Banner family. If you dare to do anything wrong with Helen, I will not let you go. I will stop here. I don’t want to say too much, you can do it yourself.”

Ed crackled a lot, then turned around and left.

What he said was filled with righteous indignation, and what he said was righteous. He thought he was handsome when he turned around and left after saying harsh words, but Robin only thought that he was out of his mind.

"Neuropathy!"

After a while, Knight Helen came back.

"I'm sorry, my uncle called me over just now, so I was delayed for a while." The female knight sat down opposite Robin, with a faint smile on her face.

Robin drank his wine and looked at Helen carefully. He had never observed Helen so seriously before.

In terms of appearance and figure, Helen is absolutely superior, and she is one of the most beautiful women in the entire Silver Frost City; What's amazing, there is no more prominent family in the entire Northern Territory than Xueying.

It's no wonder that kid Ed is so obsessed with Helen, who wouldn't love such a woman?It is estimated that men who want to pursue Helen can line up from Snow Eagle Castle to the main entrance of Silver Frost City.

Helen looked a little unnaturally at Robin, Ed's nonsense just now popped up in her mind: You like Robin, don't you?

The female knight, who had always been carefree, suddenly felt a little shy at this moment, two blush floated on her fair cheeks, and she said coquettishly, "What are you looking at?"

Robin put down his glass and joked: "The son of the Bingqi family, Ed, he seems to like you very much."

Mentioning Ed, Helen's expression immediately cooled down visibly: "I'm not interested in him, he's sometimes too naive. Besides, if it wasn't because I'm Snow Eagle, he wouldn't have pursued me at all."

Helen picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "To be honest, Robin, I think even you are much better than him."

Robin showed a strange expression: "Are you praising me? Why do I sound so awkward?"

The female knight looked serious: "Of course I'm praising you. I'd rather marry you than him."

Although it sounded awkward, Robin still accepted the compliment happily: "Uh...well, I'll just take it as you are complimenting me."

……

The banquet continued, and as time went by, more and more big shots walked into the banquet hall. They were all powerful, including Ed's father, the Marquis of Ice Banner.Whenever a noble enters the banquet hall, it will cause a burst of discussion among the people.

The level of guests who came was getting higher and higher, and Helen couldn't sit and chat with Robin anymore, she had to receive these guests.

Olov, the head of the government affairs department, was also present at the back, and Robin still had an impression of this stocky snow eagle.After he walked into the venue, he first ran over and had a chat with Robin.

"We meet again, Baron Robin. These days, you have made a lot of noise in the wasteland." Olof stood in front of Robin with his hips akimbo, and said with a smile.

"You did a good job. You taught the Golden Rose family a lesson. My elder brother is full of praise for you."

Robin also stood up and responded with a polite smile: "Long time no see, Lord Olof."

Then, Olov suddenly stepped forward, leaned over and asked Robin in a low voice, "Hey, I just heard that that kid Ed is bothering you?"

Robin was a little surprised, thinking that the intelligence work was done too well, and he knew what happened just now.

But immediately, Robin realized that the mystery was actually very simple. Every male servant present, whether it was the janitor or the one serving tea and water, without exception, was the eyeliner of the Xueying family. Everything that happened in the banquet will be conveyed to Xue Ying's ears in detail through the mouths of these eyeliners.

Olof looked like he didn't think it was a big deal after watching the excitement, and said to Robin, "Don't be afraid of him, that kid looks crazy, but he is actually a soft-legged shrimp."

Robin could see that Olof and Ed didn't seem to be getting along.

Olof and Robin only spoke a few words, and he left to accompany the big guests.Just as Robin was about to sit down, he heard another restless sound in the banquet.

Another big shot coming in?

Robin turned to the main entrance of the hall curiously, only to see a man walking in.

This man looked to be in his 40s, tall and thin, like a hemp stick, his face was pale and bloodless, with a pair of golden glasses on his eyes, giving him the aura of a scholar.The most noticeable thing is the clothes on his body. Other nobles wear formal dresses, but he is actually wearing a set of magic robes.

He is a magician.

Robin immediately heard someone exclaiming: "Look, look, it's Archmage Negan!"

Master Nigan walked into the hall, holding a huge ancient book in one hand, and helped his eyes with the other, and then he ran straight towards Robin.
