After checking the invitations of the two women, the palace guards quickly let the two women enter the palace.

At this time, the grand night banquet has not yet begun, but the atmosphere is already very lively. There are nobles everywhere gathering in twos and threes to chat and laugh. Handsome waiters and beautiful maids are also shuttled among the crowd carrying trays, using juice and wine to support their high talk. People relieve their thirst.

"Hello..."

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Tia couldn't help but whisper Valencia:

"I remember that your strength has grown rapidly in the past three years. It seems that it has little to do with the goddess' crown, but depends entirely on your place of opportunity, right? If you use the goddess' crown as a shield, aren't you afraid of being punished by God? "

"fine."

Valencia waved her hands indifferently.

Divine punishment?Isn't it just a kick in the butt... I've already endured the Holy Light once when I copied it, so it's no big deal... Could it be that the goddess can still catch me in the Kingdom of God and fuck me?

"...You look like this make me worried."

Tia frowned, looking a little worried:

"I know that your family has a special status in the church, and Her Majesty the Goddess may also favor you...but if you are too arrogant and pampered, the consequences may be tragic.

Divine grace is like the sea and divine power is like prison. If one day you really make the goddess angry, even if I become a sage, I can't save you. "

"Don't worry...and what I just said is actually not disrespectful to the goddess."

Valencia hurriedly comforted Tia, and then thought for a while before saying:

"Although it's just my guess, it should be pretty close... one of the bosses behind the land of opportunity that made me stronger is probably the Sun Goddess.

So it’s not a lie if I say that I became stronger so quickly only because of the gift from the goddess. "

"...Huh? Is this like this?"

Tia blinked, feeling relieved.

The two of them continued chatting and walking with their respective maids, until they had to stop at the T-shaped intersection of the two corridors. The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Because the people walking towards them all have the same surname as Valencia, Badr. They are currently the most powerful people in the Badr family and the most fiercely vying for the position of head of the family. The one who once dueled with Valencia because of Melina. A cousin is among them.

They fought hard for the position of head of the family, but were abandoned by Valencia... More importantly, Valensa is obviously living a better life now, and even embraced the big girl Brittania. Thick legs.

Strength is everything, dignity is only on the edge of the sword.

Therefore, although several grown men have different opinions on Valencia in their hearts, they can only bow slightly to Valencia first:

"Miss."xN

Nobles pay the most attention to etiquette and status. Even if Valencia gives up the right to inherit the family, she will still be the eldest lady of the Bader family, not to mention that she still has Britannia as her backing.

Her cousins ​​had to lower their posture to show friendship.

Everyone has lowered their attitude, and of course Valencia will no longer be cold-faced... although she actually really wants to give her a heart-breaking blow to a certain cousin who was eager to marry her off after the accident. .

"Happy New Year to all my cousins."

There is no need to worry about those past events now, but it is still okay to make a few sarcastic remarks about the other party.

So after saying hello with a sweet smile, Valensa took Tia’s arm in a showy way:

"As you can see, the matter between Tia and I has been approved by the military advisor. I should soon change my surname to Britannia after graduating from the War College.

So the Badr family is asking all your cousins ​​and cousins~~ You are so powerful, you must be able to run the family well, right? "

Chapter 184 Unexpected Gift

"You can be really mean-spirited sometimes, Valencia."

Shortly after she separated from the Bader family, Tia murmured angrily:

"Speaking of which, those people are your elders, right? Is it really okay for you to sneer at them like that? Their faces looked ugly in the end."

"There is a difference between elders and elders...I really can't respect those old guys who are short-sighted, keen on power, and always want to marry me off in exchange for benefits."

Valencia curled her lips disdainfully:

"Tia, you don't know... one of my cousins ​​just now was worrying about my marriage all day long before my parents had any trouble, and wanted to sell me at a good price.

It's good that I didn't strike him with a sword, but you still expect me to give him a good look?impossible! "

"What kind of person are you...huh?"

Tia was just about to say something else, but suddenly she saw a few more people coming from the opposite side. She quickly took Valencia's hand and bowed slightly together:

"I have met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness Cynthia."

"You're welcome, you two."

The man who spoke was about 30 years old, with dazzling blond hair, a tall figure and a handsome face. He was the eldest son of the current King and the Crown Prince.

Next to the crown prince is a gentle woman who looks two or three years younger than him. She is wearing a gorgeous palace dress mainly white and decorated with gold. She is also holding a very well-behaved little boy in her hand.

Coupled with a few accompanying palace maids, the visitors were none other than one of the protagonists tonight, the Crown Prince's family.

But at this time, the crown prince should obviously be preparing for his speech at the banquet. How could he have time to wander around with his wife and children?

"Actually, I came here specifically to see you two."

Seemingly seeing the confusion in Valencia and Tia's eyes, the crown prince smiled:

"Tia, Valencia, do you mind if I call you by your names directly?"

"It is an honor for us, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Tia pulled Valencia and bowed slightly again, and then expressed her curiosity appropriately:

"I wonder why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is looking for us...?"

"Actually, it's nothing. I just want to give each of you a gift."

The crown prince chuckled again:

“The Brittania family has always been one of the pillars of our Kingdom of France, and the Church of the Sun is our best friend and most reliable collaborator.

I heard that you two made their relationship public at Tia's coming-of-age ceremony a few days ago, right?So I plan to send you a small thought as a blessing, and I hope you won’t refuse.

I will be very busy when the banquet officially starts, and I may not be able to take care of this matter, so I came here in advance to give out the gifts. "

I see……

Valencia and Tia looked at each other and understood the meaning of the crown prince's words.

To put it simply, the royal family knows very well that with the union of Valencia and Tia, the relationship between the Church of the Sun and the Britannia family will become closer... so they came to show their kindness.

However, the Brittania family is a staunch royalist, and the Church of the Sun has no interest in fighting for power in the secular world. Neither woman has any reason to oppose the royal family.

Of course you have to accept the gift.

"Then thank you, His Royal Highness." x2

"OK."

The crown prince's smile became even brighter, and he immediately winked to the maids behind him, and asked the two maids to each hold a long box in their hands and send it to Valencia and Tia:

"The drifters from the Eastern Continent once said a saying that I have always liked... It is said to give flowers to beauties and swords to heroes.

But with your beauty, I'm afraid any flowers will be eclipsed in front of you, so I won't give you any flowers at all. You won't mind, right? "

"of course not."

Valencia covered her mouth and smiled sweetly:

"In fact, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sends me and Tiahua away, we will be in a panic... What if His Highness Cynthia misunderstands us?"

"Haha...you two can rest assured on this, I'm not the kind of person who would destroy a beautiful thing."

The crown prince also chuckled very friendly:

"Compared to picking two beautiful flowers, I prefer to watch them bloom side by side, making the world a better place with their own brightness and color."

"Thank you so much, Your Highness the Crown Prince." x2

Valencia and Tia accepted their gifts and bowed gently again.

"As long as you like it."

The crown prince waved his hand:

"Then I won't interrupt your enjoyment of tonight."

After bidding farewell to the crown prince, until Valencia and Tia found their places, they didn't communicate too much with other people along the way. At most, they politely said Happy New Year to each other.

The main venue of the palace night banquet is in the main hall of the palace, hosted by the king and queen personally, entertaining nobles from the entire royal capital.

The main hall of the palace is very large, but the total number of nobles in the entire royal capital is even greater, so noble children like Valencia and Tia are not eligible to attend the night banquet in the main hall... Those who will stay in the main hall are from major families. Housekeepers and ladies.

The place where the noble children attended the night banquet was the side hall next to the main hall. It was also magnificent and decorated to the extreme.

Although the location and view are not as good as the main hall, the participants are all young people and they are more free.

At this moment, many aristocratic children gathered together in twos and threes, chatting and laughing. Occasionally, a beautiful aristocratic lady was teased and made a shy sound, which made everyone smile.

At this time, the benefits of public dating are revealed. Valencia and Tia obviously have the top figures and looks among noble ladies, but no man has the sense to harass them. At most, they are polite because of their family relationship. say hi.

Soon, the night banquet officially began, starting with the king's New Year's speech in the main hall, which could also be seen simultaneously in the side hall through magic projection.

The speech itself was nothing new, it was just the same as everyone eating, drinking, having fun, and making the coming year better. In fact, everyone has been tired of hearing similar speeches for a long time... But nobles like to pay attention to these.

After the speech, a series of top-notch delicacies that even nobles rarely eat in their daily lives were served to the table by the palace maids. Among them were the kind of soup that was easy to drink in one mouthful and excellent meat.

Valencia and Tia chatted happily while eating delicious food, but their eyes, like most of the young aristocratic people in the side hall, looked out the window expectantly.

It’s about to start~~

Snapped!

As the huge burning redbud suddenly lights up in the sky, the magic show that the King will perform every New Year's Eve finally begins.

This magic show looks similar to the fireworks in Valencia's previous life, but the lethality of the fireworks is definitely two different things - the magic that is constantly exploding in the sky is beautiful to look at, and the power is definitely not weak, each intensity is at least Lighthouse level.

It is a celebratory performance and also a show of force.

"Happy New Year, Tia."

Chapter 185 A glass of wine and a miracle

During the gorgeous magic show, Valensa held a wine glass and looked at Tia with a smile.

"Happy New Year, Valencia."

Tia also smiled and picked up the wine glass, ready to touch it with Valencia.

"and many more."

However, Valencia stopped Tia from clinking glasses directly, smiled and let the two of them intertwin their arms, making a gesture of drinking from each other:

"We are a couple now, so this is how we should drink."

"Is this another strange move you came up with yourself? It's so embarrassing..."

Tia rolled her eyes at Valencia charmingly, but did not refuse. She maintained the posture of exchanging glasses of wine and Valensa each took a sip of the sweet wine in the glass.

As two of the most beautiful beauties in the side hall, Valencia and Tia have naturally been looked at by many people either openly or secretly.

At this time, many young people were curious when they saw their actions of drinking from a glass of wine, and they tried to follow suit with their partners.

As for those who are single and have no partner...then they still have brothers and best friends. Anyway, not many people in this world know what it means to have a glass of wine, so everyone just drinks and has fun.

In a lively and joyful atmosphere, the magic show that lasted for half an hour ended. The Kingdom of France once again proved its power to the people.

Those magics that just kept exploding in the air for everyone to watch as fireworks, if used to attack, can easily turn a city into ruins.

However, as the magic show ended, people did not look away from the sky. Instead, they showed more expectant eyes... Many people with particularly devout beliefs even knelt down.

Because what is about to appear next is even more heavyweight.

miracle.

With the full power consumption of the artifact in the Church of the Sun Cathedral activated, a blazing holy light turned the night sky into day again, as if a new sun appeared in the sky, shining brightly.

Under the radiance of the miracle, everyone in the entire royal capital, regardless of rich or poor, could feel that their bodies were becoming more and more comfortable, and all the open wounds, hidden wounds, and diseases on their bodies were being healed quickly.

People with disabled legs and feet threw away their crutches and cheered in the light; people who were blind saw this beautiful world clearly again; people who were deaf sang tuneless songs at the top of their lungs; people who lost their sense of taste ate delicious food and shed tears. .

This can be regarded as a fixed program on every New Year's Eve of the Church of the Sun. It uses divine tools to activate divine spells to restore the bodies of all believers in the entire capital to their healthiest state, in order to demonstrate the grace of the Sun Goddess.
