The decent group was surprised to sit up and the villain was myself

So is Yelan.

"Wow~ I'm going to attend this kind of high society party again..."

For Ye Lan, this was a meaningless activity.

Even though she has participated in many tea parties with Sharon and met many beautiful ladies, Ye Lan, who is socially afraid, is still unwilling to participate in such a crowded event.

But she still came.

In this era, there are no games suitable for Ye Lan to pass the time, so he can only come here with Sharon.

There is to observe the situation, just in case.

Even if she is unwilling to socialize, she can still reduce her sense of presence from beginning to end, and then sneak over to eat while Sharon is communicating with other people.

There's a lot to eat at parties.

Yelan will not miss these big meals.

It is said that they are all made by senior chefs, and Ye Lan gave them a high degree of recognition.

The party has begun.

At this time, someone stood up and gave the opening speech of the party, who seemed to be a certain military noble with the highest status.

Ye Lan didn't pay attention to it at all, but continued to look for food that suits her appetite.

Not knowing what the meritorious nobleman said, the party started again.

Next is a free meeting to expand the social circle.

The aristocrats present can chat with other aristocrats to increase understanding and expand contacts.

This is a common thing at parties.

But the party unconsciously took on an anomalous status quo.

That is...

The nobles present formed two distinct factions.

One is a young nobleman who is currently advocating etiquette.

One is a military noble who has just returned from the battlefield.

There seems to be a transparent wall between the two parties, preventing pleasant communication.

In fact, they tried to communicate, but they couldn't adapt to each other's way of talking.

The speaking style of some noble gentlemen is not suitable for some military nobles.

And the vulgar speaking style of the military nobles made some noble gentlemen and ladies feel uncomfortable.

Not all aristocratic gentlemen really engraved etiquette in their bones like Hughes.

Certain aristocratic gentlemen are now more like imitations.

No matter how imitated it is, it cannot change most of the essence.

In their view, communicating with people who are not gentlemen or ladies will lower their own style and fail to show their gentlemanly demeanor.

Therefore, the vulgar military nobles cannot arouse their desire to show off.

Only when compared with those who are also gentlemen, will their value be revealed.

Some female aristocrats who call themselves ladies are similar.

Because some military nobles came here to talk to women.

After all, after fighting on the battlefield for many years, it is normal for them to come back and want to start a family.

In this case, it is not unreasonable to find a woman of the right family.

But it's a pity.

Today's aristocratic aesthetics have long been distorted by Hughes.

The fantasy object of many ladies is the perfect gentleman like Hughes.

If not Hughes, then at least a gentleman.

However, none of those nobles with military exploits could be regarded as a gentleman, and it was impossible for them to fall into the eyes of those ladies.

This is a catastrophe for the military nobles who have just returned and cannot adapt to the current aristocratic atmosphere.

If this continues, no young noble will be willing to communicate and cooperate with them.

Even if many young nobles are not in power at present, it will be a matter of time.

Being isolated is bad for nobles.

Even the military nobles are the same.

This is not a battlefield.

Only fighting can't make a big deal.

Hughes, who was surrounded by everyone, also noticed this, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Ugh.

It turned out to be the case.

Is it just superficial gentleman and superficial lady?

Those who are influenced by him cannot become like him after all.

No matter how similar the appearance and temperament are, the things identified in the heart will not be the same.

Although it is normal for a gentleman to resist communicating with people he hates.

But it is a bit too much to resist people who are not of the same kind.

Even if the military nobles are not gentlemanly, you should be polite to them instead of blindly resisting them.

It's not really gentlemanly.

So what will the military nobles do?

Trying to accept the current aristocratic trend, or choose to resist change?

This is very important to Hughes.

Hughes thought for a moment, and said to the people around him, "Sorry, excuse me first."

After breaking away from the siege of the crowd, he went straight to the place where the military nobles gathered, ready to chat with them.

Naturally someone noticed his arrival.

After seeing Hughes' temperament is different, they also felt something.

Another "gentleman".

I saw a certain bearded aristocratic man laughing.

"Are you a gentleman again? It doesn't matter if you don't want to communicate with us, don't come here to say something so hypocritical, or will this show your gentlemanly demeanor?"

Hughes' heart sank.

A lot of hostility.

"Hello, my name is Hughes. I think we should have a pleasant exchange."

Hearing this self-introduction of Hughes, many military nobles were slightly taken aback.

"Are you the most popular gentleman right now? I have heard many ladies mention you. It is said that you are the most perfect man. I don't agree with this sentence."

Hughes is neither humble nor overbearing.

"It's all polite words. I'm just an ordinary man. I'm better at treating people politely. I'm not that different from other people."

Some military nobles fell silent.

When they went to talk to women just now, they often heard them mention Hughes.

Some even compare them to Hughes, so make them a bit pissed off.

Look at the man in front of you.

He is obviously very young and doesn't seem to have any strength, but he is handsome and gentle, so can he be favored by so-called ladies?

Obviously strong and strong are the most popular labels.

This is very useful on the battlefield, but it will be disgusted at the gathering of nobles?

This is absolutely not normal.

This is a bad atmosphere!

Hostility towards Hughes has already appeared in the eyes of some military nobles.

A feeling of dissatisfaction arose in their hearts.

Then several people surrounded Hughes, trying to overwhelm him with momentum.

People who come back from the battlefield are always more imposing than ordinary people, which is something ordinary people can't bear, and they can feel the pressure soon.

There is a big difference between those who have killed and those who have not.

But Hughes' face didn't change, he was still calm.

"Gentlemen, this is disrespectful behaviour."

"Is your name Hughes? I'm going to fight you." A young military noble stood up and stared at Hughes.

As long as you defeat the so-called perfect gentleman in front of everyone, you should be able to break the fantasy of these young nobles.

Change this distorted aesthetic.

What kind of shit gentlemanly demeanor?

Nobles don't need this kind of thing at all!

Chapter 31 Contradictions

The Elegy Player is secretly observing the stage of the story.

In this complex background, any detail can change the direction of the story.

If you want to make things worse, provoking conflicts is a good way.

The dirge player can do a lot in the process of creating tragedy.

It is still possible to amplify the dark side of human beings a little bit and make their emotions easy to lose control.

Of course, he will only interfere with this detail at present.

It would be boring if the irreversible situation were created all at once.

What he wants to see is the whole process of the tragedy, not the boring result.

As for someone trying to change the tragedy...he doesn't care.

As long as he gets serious, no one can make him fail.

The perspective returns to the party center.

Facing the provocation of the military nobles, Hughes did not accept the challenge.

"This is the party scene. Please pay attention to the occasion. The duel can wait until the party is over. If it is a formal duel, I will naturally not refuse." Hughes said calmly.

He didn't have much emotional change from start to finish.

But the military nobles who initiated the provocation don't pay attention to any occasion.

He just wants to make Hughes lose face in front of everyone!

No matter how perfect his personality is, no matter how beautiful his image is, cracks will appear because of this embarrassment!

As for whether Hughes has combat effectiveness?

So what if there is?

Can that be compared to the fighters who have fought on the battlefield?

Hughes, a young nobleman with thin skin and tender flesh, might just be exercising.
