Chapter 515 (513): A Legendary Feast (Please Subscribe)
At Lion Manor, the banquet had been going on for a very long time, and the atmosphere had become extremely tense.

The band had long since stopped playing, and the maids in the banquet hall had all been removed, replaced by a group of black-clad swordsmen who were stationed everywhere.

Most of the guests were seated in their own places. Some had gloomy faces, some were anxious, and some appeared calm, but the knuckles of their fingers holding the silver cups were protruding.

Of course, there were also carefree ones, mostly young girls, who were dozing off there.

Even so, the banquet hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

No one from the lord's manor showed up, saying the banquet was over, obviously because they were afraid the guests would cause trouble.

These people are unwilling to leave now because if something happens, they can get firsthand information here, and it is the safest place.

From the Lion Manor outwards, the entire city of Brussels once again entered a state of martial law.

Countless people were driven home, and the streets were only patrolled by police officers and guarded by black-clad swordsmen.

However, despite the martial law, people's hearts are most restless.

Many people are filled with fear, after all, the previous 'turmoil' is still fresh in their minds.

However, this situation did not last long, and first, things changed at Lion Manor.

The male and female servants were once again put to work, and a banquet hall of extremely high standard was set up on the sixth floor of the Mechanical Mage Tower.

Inside the kitchen, the cook was tasked with using her best skills to prepare the most luxurious meal.

If any fresh ingredients are needed, a list will be made, and someone will go and purchase them.

Even more astonishingly, due to the urgency of the situation, at Butler Hoover's command, an extraordinary expert released his battle aura and soared into the sky.

All for the sake of the blood of a freshly slaughtered monster.

With the news spreading from the Lion Manor as its center, martial law was quickly lifted throughout Brussels.

It felt like snow meeting the sun, melting away the ice and snow, and there was even an undisguised sense of celebration brewing in the city.

The noise eventually reached the banquet hall, sparking discussion among the guests.

Unable to contain their eagerness any longer, they summoned the busy Hoover butler.

Imperial Ambassador Lord Robin Waters tried to read the clues from Old Hoover's face, but for a good butler, keeping his emotions hidden was a basic skill.

So, after a moment's hesitation, he asked directly, "I wonder, has the Earl caught up with the assassin?"

Butler Hoover replied without hesitation, "Of course, my master has already killed the assassin, and also removed the heads of eight Calamities."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar!

Many people simply refused to believe it. They knew that Luo Yi was a strong person among the natural disasters, but to say that she fought nine people at once and killed them directly was going too far.

Then, someone hidden in the crowd said in a low voice, "Haven't any other unexpected events occurred?"

"Change of events? What change of events? What kind of change of events do you want?"

Butler Hoover's expression suddenly changed, his gaze sharp as he searched for something among the guests.

Although he wasn't a particularly strong person, as the Raymond family's head butler, he certainly had a certain amount of authority when he got angry.

No one dared to meet his gaze; in fact, they avoided him, fearing they might become the target of suspicion.

However, after only a moment, Butler Hoover's expression changed again, but he returned to normal and spoke with the elegance and composure characteristic of a butler: "Of course there have been changes!"
Legendary powerhouses from the three great empires, along with some unscrupulous individuals, plotted the assassination.

Unfortunately, my master was prepared and intercepted them one by one, even personally taking action and slaying a legendary figure.

"Wow..."

If before it was disbelief, but you could still manage to control your expression, now it's pure suspicion, as if the butler is just spouting nonsense.

Even Lord Robin Waters, the Imperial Ambassador and a close collaborator with the Flower Territory, couldn't help but question, "Butler Hoover, are you telling the truth?"

"believe it or not!"

"Then tell me, which legendary figure died at the hands of the Earl?"

"The Kingdom of Sardinia, the legendary mage, 'Blackfire' Farin Zacharias."

"That's impossible! That legend is proficient in darkness and shadow magic. How difficult would it be to kill him?"

"But he's already dead."

Butler Hoover, no longer willing to waste words, directly told everyone to leave: "Alright, everyone, the banquet is over for today. You may leave."

At this moment, someone spoke up: "May I ask the Earl to come out and meet us?"

Someone else chimed in, "Yes, yes, even after the banquet ends, it's not appropriate for the host not to show their face, is it?"

"My parents are currently unavailable. If you wish to schedule a meeting, please send an invitation first."

"Your Excellency is so stingy with your presence, could it be...?"

The words were left unsaid, but the meaning was clear. However, Hoover, the butler, rarely showed emotion, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. My master is perfectly fine. However, I have a few legendary figures to entertain, so I won't have time to deal with you."

"You mean?"

"That's right, I'm preparing a legendary feast!" ...

The guests have all left.

As I left, the horizon was already turning a pale white, and a new day was beginning.

However, despite not having slept all night, these people were not particularly tired. Instead, they returned to their base as quickly as possible and relayed the message back through various channels.

Although they found it hard to believe deep down, receiving and reporting the news was something they had to do.

Even if it's a mistake, it has to be reported first, and then judged by those high-ranking nobles.

They were actually prepared; the wrong information would still result in reprimand.

But to their surprise, the news was reported, but no reprimand occurred.

On the contrary, various requests for enhanced cooperation, trade orders, and technical support have poured in.

Lord Robin Water, the Imperial Ambassador, waited patiently after reporting the news.

But he didn't have to wait long. The proposal, which had been stalled, to replace tanks with aircraft, was passed just like that.

At this moment, even the most oblivious among them understood that everything Butler Hoover said was true.

At this moment, countless people had only one thought in their minds: The Raymond family is truly about to take off!

And this is just the beginning!
The birth and fall of a legend, and the resulting aftershocks, continue to influence the situation in Flower Territory and even the entire Old World.

Of course, that's a story for later. Right now, Luo Yi is entertaining a group of legendary powerhouses.

On the sixth floor of the mage tower, a continuous stream of food was served, and fresh magical beast blood was even specially brought out to entertain the two vampires.

Furthermore, the traditional long tables were removed and replaced with round tables, symbolizing that there is no distinction between noble and lowly status.

The girl from the Siren tribe was also awakened, and her melodious singing was deliberately kept at a low volume.

It is neither noisy nor disruptive, yet it creates a peaceful and comfortable environment, making it the best choice for people.

Loy invited the five legends, along with His Majesty Saint Bartholomew, to take their seats. They didn't discuss any secrets or mention any compensation; they simply ate, drank, and chatted casually.

They're all strong people; drinks are just for fun, they won't get them drunk.

After introducing themselves, they shared their personal experiences, discussed history, and talked about the current situation; the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

For example, His Holiness Saint John Stuart never mentioned the internal strife within the Papacy, but instead brought up his past as a member of the Celestial Legion, fighting against the Abyss.

The first layer of the abyss, also known as the Plain of Ten Thousand Abysses, is considered the gateway to the bottomless abyss and is also a recognized battlefield between gods and demons.

There are conflicts between gods and demons, and between demons and devils. When devils encounter gods, it is often a fight to the death.

Since there is a conflict, the most direct solution is, of course, to fight it out, and whoever wins is right.

Under normal circumstances, unless it's a war that involves 'national extinction and racial annihilation,' everyone will leave some room for maneuver. That is, they will agree on a time and place, each gather their legions and helpers, and fight a battle.

The most frequently chosen 'location' is this Wanyuan Plain.

Over time, this place even became the perfect battlefield for 'war'.

Almost every moment, there are legions of supplicants from the divine realm, legions of demons from the abyss, legions of hell from Bathor, and individual legions from various prime material planes...

They descended upon this place and engaged in a desperate killing spree.

This is what is known as a bloody battle!
Saint John Stuart participated in such a bloody battle; the enemy was a demon lord under the legendary Dark Lord Grazt.

But halfway through the battle, a legion of hell suddenly intervened, and it also involved the army of supplicants of another god.

Anyway, that battle left Saint-Yon still bewildered by the chaos.

However, he also taught a little trick: if you are traveling to the Abyss, it is best to stay in Broken Domain Town for a while.

That was the base of the Blood War mercenaries, the trading center and transit point of the Abyss, ruled by a powerful succubus in red shroud, and it was relatively orderly.

The environment in the abyss is extremely harsh, and the rules of survival are different from those in other planes. Therefore, living there for a period of time is essential to better prepare for future adventures and trials.

Seeing that Saint-Jon had brought up a topic of interest to everyone, the legendary Berto Reyes Norman also began to speak.

Since he spends most of his time outside the plane of existence, he naturally needs a stable place to stay, and the city he chose is the legendary City of Sigil.

The City of Sigil is said to be the center of the multiverse, from which one can reach any known plane and region.

Even Loy had read about the City of Imprints in different books; it was so magical it was unbelievable.

However, even with all the available information, Deep Blue was unable to determine where the so-called center of the multiverse should be located.
This time, it was His Majesty Berto Reyes Norman who cleared up his doubts.

First, His Majesty Beto Reyes Norman doesn't even know whether Sigil is the center of the multiverse.

His abilities and knowledge are not yet sufficient to take the universe as the starting point of his vision.

However, he knew that the City of Sigil possessed extremely unique power, capable of connecting spatial rifts in every plane and region, thus forming its own unique portals.

Therefore, the seemingly impossible claim that one can reach all known places from Sigil is actually true.
