Warhammer: Return of the Dragon
Chapter 60 Banquet
At the same time, in the underground secret room of a manor in Lothern, a man wearing a scholar's robe and looking like a scholar was operating a magic device.
The device was covered with dark runes, with internal organs and stumps hanging on it. As blood continued to pour in, the runes began to glow with a purple-black light.
"Imric has arrived in Lothern."
After the runes flashed, Italis stood in front of the table, seemingly talking to himself.
"What are his abilities?" A hoarse voice came from the device.
"It's hard to tell, Imrik is well protected by Mikhail."
"But Mikhail is still dead, by your hands, Julian."
"Looking into the hands of Caledonians."
"You know what to do. Caledor is my biggest obstacle to regaining the kingship."
"Everyone dies, but kingship lasts forever."
After saying that, the runes of the device stopped flashing, and Italis, or Julian Baneblade, was thinking about how to get rid of the Dragon Prince.
As a spy who has been lurking in Ulthuan for hundreds of years, he is no longer accustomed to using sharp blades and poison to deal with enemies like he was in Naggarond.
He despises the political schemes of these cowardly cousins, but he is also proficient in this. Many times, he does not need to take action. As long as he is slightly provoked, there will be countless people who peek at the power, like tarsal maggots, eager to eat the dragon's flesh. Skeletons.
After thinking for a long time, looking at this device that communicated with the orthodox kingship of Ulthuan, he pulled out a Druchi short dagger and quickly stabbed it into a severed hand on the table, "Elion, you will be Druchi The blade of vengeance.”
…………
Arriving at the familiar Phoenix King's Court, the Dragon Prince had been here many times, but every time he felt ironic that the living environment in the Outer Ring Kingdom was completely different from here.
The nobles who were qualified to enter this banquet deliberately avoided these Caledonians wearing red and white noble costumes. No one wanted to take the initiative to contact these arrogant and reckless warriors. Only the palace attendants bravely walked to the dragon. In front of the prince, he bowed and said.
"Your Highness, thank you for accepting His Majesty the Phoenix King's invitation to come to the banquet prepared for the celebration. I am Joel, the courtier of the Phoenix King. I will accompany you next. If you need anything, you can give me any instructions."
Joel received an order at noon, which was to be responsible for receiving the Dragon Prince who came to Lothern from Caledor. This was definitely a boring and torturous task. If it were other nobles who wanted to To strengthen their influence in the Phoenix Court, or to obtain first-hand inside information, they would often bribe these court officials.
Many of them also relied on this method to buy villas and hire servants in places like Lothern, where every inch of land is precious. This banquet was the largest since Fenuba took the throne. They thought they could make a fortune. , but I didn’t expect to receive Caledonians.
These stone heads don't even pay attention to what news is happening in the Phoenix Royal Court, are they engaging in palace conspiracy? You guys play with your brains, but the Caledonians play with force and beat your brains out, even if they don’t have gold leaves, but every Dragon Prince has a notoriously bad temper.
The Conquering King does not engage in poetry and court enjoyment, but only thinks about fighting. Ka Er is extremely arrogant. Anyone standing in front of him seems to be an offense to him. Titlis's hatred for the dark cousin makes him compare to Asu Er, more like a Druchi.
He cautiously raised his waist and waited for the Dragon Prince's response. He had thought about the Dragon Prince's reaction countless times in the afternoon, whether he would kick him away directly, or angrily accuse him of being lowly and refuse to enter the banquet, just in a cold sweat. When he was about to stay, a cold and arrogant word made him feel relieved.
Then he saw the feet in the stirrups leaving the horse's body and coming to the ground. "Lead the way. Are all the people of Lothern turned into a pile of soft bones because of their superior living environment?"
Not daring to care about such a seriously insulting word, Joiff immediately asked the attendants behind to lead the horses of several people to the royal stable.
When every Prince of Caledor arrives at the Phoenix King's Court, his treatment will only be slightly lower than that of the Phoenix King, even during the period of the Phoenix King of Isis, who valued civility over military affairs.
As Edtelis took Flora out of the carriage, Joyef bowed and made a gesture of invitation, "Noble Dragon Prince, brave Dragon Prince, elegant lady, please."
Imrik didn't care too much about his humble attitude. From the memory of the original owner, they had seen too much of this kind of thing. On the one hand, they despised Caledor's arrogance in their hearts, and on the other hand, they needed to rely on Caledor. He had no choice but to adopt such a distorted attitude.
As the Dragon Prince stepped into the courtyard, a hollow circle gradually formed in the crowd. Only Imrik and a few people in Caledor participated. For that silent kingdom, such a banquet seemed too noisy, and no one would specially attend. He rushed to Lothern, a place with nouveau riche, to attend the banquet.
Bustling crowds flowed through the manor. Expensive magic lamps hung in the corridors, illuminating the night brightly. The gemstones they wore shone in various ways under the light. Finely brewed wines were neatly placed in various locations by the attendants. , precious ingredients from all over the world are put on the table through the hands of the royal chef.
Everyone was smiling. For a banquet of this level, receiving an invitation made by top craftsmen and decorated with gilt fonts and fine gemstones already represented the status of the family.
Beneath the brilliance here, the deepest darkness of Ulthuan is hidden. Countless conspiracies are unfolding from tonight. In the future, there will be gains or losses. Some people will move to higher levels because of the benefits, while some people may end up at this banquet. After that, you will forever lose the qualification to enter again.
But all this has nothing to do with the Dragon Prince. The kingdom is ruled by princes, and the princes are jointly elected by all the great nobles. But as long as the dragon tamer family has no heirs, it will always be the ruler of Caledor, and it will naturally be with him. The identity of these people has created a huge gap. This is blood and responsibility.
Coming inside, the outer circle is just some nobles who have reached the middle level. They are not qualified to come to this circle that symbolizes the top of Ulthuan's power. Originally, nobles like Davian, who had only two or three people left in the family, had no choice. Enter, but the guard at the door saw that it was the Dragon Prince and did not dare to say anything. After all, there once was a Dragon Prince who rode a giant dragon from Caledor to the celebration and jumped down from the air. The Phoenix King was not even afraid to do anything. Put one.
As soon as he entered the venue, he saw a few familiar figures, including Gilgalion, Prince of Erion. He also noticed Imric, who was still accepting the flattery of others, but his smiling face immediately turned cold. After the incident of Caledo taking away more than 10,000 war horses from Erion, the relationship between the two countries has dropped to a freezing point. If it were not blocked by the Annulli Mountains, actual combat training might be performed on the border every day.
In addition to the four Semen outside the Dragon Gate, the person in charge of Caledor also wrote to the Dragon Prince, saying that there were provocations from the Elion people. Although they stopped due to the obstruction of the Semen General, there was still such a situation in private. situation and ask what to do.
In response to this, Imric also directly issued a notice to the Caledorian troops in various Saimons in the name of the prince, "If someone provokes you, fight back. Serious injuries are not a problem. If you kill the dragon, the palace will bear the responsibility. If there are few people, the dragon will be killed." The palace will distribute the best equipment to you."
The Caledonians, who are full of martial virtue, did not embarrass the Dragon Prince. There were reports of private fights between soldiers in many gates. Caledor and Elion were the most popular, and the Elionites were often blocked by the small number of people. The Caledorians beat them violently, especially at the Unicorn Gate, the gate with the fewest Caledorian soldiers. Something happened that shocked Ulthuan.
Two thousand Arionites were beaten violently by two hundred Caledonians. Afterwards, the Semen general from Arion asked the Dragon Prince for his opinion. This behavior was a provocation to the Unicorn Gate, and the Caledonians must be severely punished. .
The answer of the Dragon Prince was, "This is a matter of great impact. It is a serious threat to Asur's strict military discipline. I just don't know how two hundred Caledor soldiers can control thousands of Elion people." I don’t understand. Secondly, all participants should be severely punished. The Dragon Palace will send Caledor soldiers back to the Dragon Spine Mountains to dig stones. I hope the Pegasus Palace will also set an example."
In the end, the matter had to be left alone. With the strong intervention of the generals from various gates, the two sides finally reluctantly shook hands and made peace.
At this time, Gilgarion's face was extremely ugly. The prestige he had established in Ulthuan for hundreds of years had been wiped out by Imric in just a few months. Those poets did not care about the differences between the two countries. The real situation, as long as there is something that can attract attention, will be exaggerated and described without limit.
Imric was formed into Caledor Shylock, and he became the Horse Prince.
