Chapter 622 What is Hot?
Chapter 622 What is Hot?
There is no need to even wait until the news spreads completely in the capital.
On the evening of the end of the audience ceremony, Pete and Lancelot began to receive one invitation letter after another, along with small gifts.
Without exception, all of them were sent to them by the new nobles in the royal capital.
The content is varied, but they all basically express the same meaning:
Inviting Pete, Miranda and Lancelot, they prepared banquets, dances, drama performances, gladiatorial performances, card games, outings, hunting...
The types of activities cover almost all entertainment methods near the royal capital!
Pete even opened a letter, the contents of which hinted in a veiled tone that the other party had privately hired or kept two dark elves. As long as Pete was willing to come as a guest, the two dark elves would use the most sophisticated methods, techniques and props to let Pete experience what the pinnacle of bliss was.
When Reina, who was watching the fun nearby, saw the invitation, her face turned blue with anger. Without saying a word, she snatched the letter from Pete's hand and tore it into pieces.
"No! Allowed! To go!"
Reina warned Pete through gritted teeth, speaking each word.
Pete was so embarrassed that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Honey, of course I won't go. Don't worry, I'm not interested in dark elves."
Although the dark elves' technology is amazing, they are a race that has lived in the deep regions for many years. Their skin is basically black and gray, and they like to wear dark eye shadow and lipstick. Their appearance is really not the type that Pete likes.
And dark elves tend to... be attracted to both men and women.
Pete had no intention of experiencing the feeling of being on top of another man.
……
Because there were so many letters, after opening the first part, Pete simply looked at the signatures on the envelopes or gifts:
"Earl, Viscount, Baron, Baron, Baron, Viscount... Oh, there's also a Marquis!"
The situation on Lancelot's side was no worse.
Dolan was helping him count the pink envelopes in the pile of invitations.
Perhaps because Lancelot revealed his singleness at the palace lunch, the pink invitations were often written to him by girls of his age who were descendants of royal nobles.
"12, 13, 14... There are two more, 16!"
"Ha! This is amazing!" Dolan's eyes lit up as he counted, and he smiled as he opened the beautifully packaged pink envelope he found:
"Baroness Yinglier, she is 38 years old and a widow!"
"Lancelot, you are so welcome. Baroness Inlil told you that she has nothing to do in the next few days and will stay in her own manor. She also said that she has prepared the best red wine for you and asked if you want to taste the wine with her under the moonlight! Hahahaha!"
Dolan held his stomach, it hurt from laughing so hard.
He could understand other nobles using the "honey trap", but the girls they arranged were all beautiful young girls who were the favorites of young men of Lancelot's age and full of vigor.
This is not even a beauty trap, but a normal marriage between nobles.
Although Lancelot has not been officially canonized yet, since he is a hero of the kingdom recognized by His Majesty Kenreddin himself, it is only a matter of time before he is knighted in the future.
As a result, Baroness Yinglier was so good that the widow even took to the battlefield herself.
Lancelot's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
He actually had no interest in the daughters of these nobles.
The temporary etiquette training he had to receive just for the audience was enough to give him a headache.
He used to be an ordinary person, and his favorite food was roast chicken, especially the kind of whole chicken with a crispy skin on the outside and tender inside. He could tear off large chunks of chicken directly from the chicken and eat it with his mouth full of oil.
There was roast chicken at the palace lunch, and the chef cooked it perfectly, making Lancelot very hungry. However, according to etiquette, it was impolite to just pick up the whole roast chicken and eat it, and even pulling off a chicken leg with your hands was not allowed.
He has to "elegantly" use the knife and fork to cut it, then dip it in the prepared sauce and taste it slowly.
You cannot talk to people while chewing, and you cannot smack your lips.
When nobles socialize with each other, sometimes every move must strictly follow their etiquette standards. Those who fail to meet the corresponding requirements will be laughed at or even excluded.
Lancelot simply couldn't imagine how miserable his future life would be if his other half was a noble lady!
However, the nobles in the royal capital obviously did not think so much, or they thought it was a matter of course, and they still sent Lancelot invitations and small gifts such as wreaths, bracelets, and bracelets one after another.
……
It only took half an evening.
Not counting those intended for Miranda, the total number of invitations received by Pete and Lancelot alone reached a terrifying 641!
More than 600 letters!
There were countless small gifts, filling the room.
This also indirectly shows how large a group of new nobles are in the royal capital.
In the vast majority of cases.
To be able to be canonized by the king, according to current practice, being a level 3 professional is a hard condition.
More than 600 professionals of at least level 3!
And this is just the part that is well-informed or quick to react.
There were still many newly ennobled nobles who had not yet sent invitations to Pete and the others, or were still preparing to do so.
These invitations are not entirely sugar-coated bullets to win over the people.
Because Pete and his friends are undoubtedly the most popular people in the entire capital Starosh, with the halo of "kingdom heroes". As the news of the audience with the king spreads, their fame in the capital will surely become outrageous in a short period of time.
By communicating with Gale via instant messenger, Pete confirmed the situation in the old city where the majority population was ordinary citizens of the royal capital.
The situation was similar over there. Gale could even hear topics like "heroes of the kingdom, audiences with the king, rewards, commissions" from the citizens passing by on the roadside from time to time.
Some nobles may have invited Pete and his party only out of courtesy;
Some are opportunists who, seeing how popular Pete and his friends are, want to take advantage of the reputation of being a "kingdom hero";
Then there are some who are truly the type who have ulterior motives.
Looking at the hundreds of invitations piled up like a mountain in the suite, Lancelot couldn't help but feel worried:
"Who should we agree to? Who should we refuse?"
"According to the requirements of court etiquette...out of courtesy, I think we need to write corresponding replies to these, right?!"
"Hundreds of replies! I'm going to die!"
Pete looked very relaxed:
"Don't worry!"
"The situation is not as troublesome as you think. There is a very simple solution!"
