He smiled and said to the Duke: "I really envy the Duke to have such an outstanding heir."

Duke Levi was very happy after hearing noble Baker's words. He knew it was a compliment, but he still felt extremely proud when he mentioned his daughter.

Erica also seemed very relaxed when communicating with the aristocracy. With her long blond hair and a silver dress, she looked like a white swan with a golden crown, gentle and elegant.

A noble gentleman was attracted by Erica.

He also has blond hair, a handsome face, and wears gorgeous clothes.

"Miss Erica."

"I am Piper Tia, the eldest son of the Tia family. Can I invite the lady to dance with me?"

Erica did not shake her head, but responded politely:

"Sorry, Master Piper, I already have an appointment."

Erica nodded politely to him and walked away under the regretful eyes of the other party.

Following this time, Erica returned to her father's side.

Suddenly, the guests at the banquet stopped talking and were invariably attracted by the sound of a door opening.

The music also stopped abruptly.

They raised their heads and looked towards the second floor of the palace.

The golden door on the second floor slowly opened, and Emperor Oberly gradually walked out, with Aurelion in a silver-white dress beside him.

Then came out the head of Cravenna’s family, Victor Cravenna.

Behind him was his sister, Leah Cravenna.

Although Liya has attended many banquets, she has never been as proud as she is now.

Being able to follow the emperor, the eyes of thousands of guests are focused on him.

Just thinking about it made Liya forget how to walk.

Her legs were extremely stiff now, trying her best to hold herself up and prevent herself from falling.

After all, if the chain is dropped at this time, it will be embarrassing in front of thousands of people.

Liya didn't want this.

She knew that this honor was brought by Victor, so she couldn't embarrass Victor.

The emperor slowly walked to the front of the floor, and many people also saw Victor's familiar face.

"That's it, Victor?"

"What? Victor is behind the emperor!?"

"What the hell! Victor!?"

When many guests saw Victor's figure, they immediately lost their composure.

They looked at each other, feeling extremely surprised.

When Gwen and Kefla saw Victor, they couldn't close their mouths.

"Sister...sister, is that Victor?"

The wine glass in Gwen's hand shook, and her words were trembling.

Kefla was also a little surprised, but at least she was someone who had seen many big scenes. She was not as exaggerated as Gwen. She just nodded and responded;

"probably……"

"He actually stood by the emperor's side. The emperor valued Victor too much."

……

Some people were envious, others were jealous, and there were also some who stared at Victor with some hostility.

But they didn't dare to do anything. They could only hold the cups in their hands tightly, with different thoughts.

Erica naturally saw Victor as well. She stared blankly at the second floor.

After that, she turned her head and looked at Duke Levi beside her.

There wasn't too much surprise on his father's expression when he saw him, but it was normal.

'It seems that my father has known about it for a long time. '

The emperor taking the initiative to reward Victor was completely different from Victor accompanying the emperor.

Commendation, that is Victor's contribution and the achievement he deserves.

And accompanying...

There are so many reasons that can be figured out.

But no matter what, this is a signal revealed by the royal family to all nobles.

The Cravenas, a signal of good relations with the royal family.

At this time, Erica also saw Liya behind Victor, and her eyes lit up.

The beautiful boss I saw at the prop shop last time was indeed Victor's relative.

Only Victor's relatives had the privilege of traveling with the emperor.

Everyone put down their wine glasses and bowed to the emperor to express their respect.

The emperor waved his hand, cleared his throat, and began a formulaic speech:

"Everyone must be aware of this war between the empires. Although the final victory belongs to us, the empire still suffered heavy losses."

"As the leader of the empire, I feel extremely sad. From today on, the Demon War will be recorded in the history of the empire, and that day will be regarded as a anniversary, and the whole country will remember this painful lesson."

"Victor Cravener's contribution is known to everyone in the capital. He defeated the devil and prevented the tragedy from continuing to unfold."

"In the name of Thor VIII, I will give Victor the highest honor of the Empire, the Imperial Medal!"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the minister on the side walked to the stage on the second floor in front of Emperor Aubrey with a sparkling medal.

The emperor personally picked up the medal, wore it for Victor himself, smiled and nodded to Victor.

Victor put his hand on his chest and bowed slightly to show respect.

Seeing this scene, the guests applauded in unison and congratulated Victor.

The ministers gradually withdrew, and the emperor turned around and continued:

"Meanwhile, Victor Cravener is promoted to earl."

Hearing the emperor's announcement, Liya suddenly felt in a trance.

It turns out that this is what His Majesty said to Victor.

If it was true as the emperor said, the Clavenna family should have been promoted to a peerage long ago. The delay in being promoted to an earl was due to her dead father's refusal.

But now, Victor had no room to refuse.

The minister on the other side brought the certificate of title to Victor, and Victor took it and bowed in loyalty to the emperor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

In an instant, the audience burst into even more enthusiastic applause.

A smile appeared on Erica's face, and she looked at Victor with admiration, the little stars in her eyes shining brighter.

Gwen and Kefla couldn't help but laugh, applauded in the audience, and congratulated Victor.

After the honors are awarded, the banquet begins.

At this time, the emperor was also ready to leave.

Before leaving, he did not forget to say one more thing to Victor:

"Have a good time, Victor. This kind of occasion is not suitable for my old emperor."

He brought Aurelion to Victor and motioned for Victor to take her with him.

"From now on, you will be Aurelion's teacher."

Victor nodded and responded:

"I will do my best."

After the emperor finished speaking, he smiled and left slowly with the help of his servant.

It wasn't until the emperor was no longer in sight that Victor turned around and returned to the banquet with Aurelion.

Aurelion followed Victor timidly, not even daring to walk in front of Victor.

She had heard some stories about Victor.

Many ministers often spread rumors in the palace that Victor is a pervert who likes minors.

Seeing Aurelion's timid look, Victor took her to find a quiet place to sit down.

He also didn't like this kind of occasion.

It was a little quiet around me, and the customary chirping didn't ring in my ears.

He missed Vega a little.

The crow symbolizes the unknown and is naturally not allowed to enter this kind of banquet, so it can only wait on the railing outside the palace.

The princess looked at Victor who was a little bored, gathered up her courage, and decided to say hello in advance:

"Mr. Victor...? Hello?"

Victor turned and looked at the princess.

He looked each other up and down.

The current Aurelion was really hard for him to imagine.

Except for some similarities in her face, she couldn't match the future Eternal Witch in terms of personality or figure.

but.

Victor focused on her timid expression and took a few more glances.

Who could have imagined what was hidden under her harmless face?
