Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1429 1401. Extraordinary Charm

"Is that the killer crab, a specialty of the Kovir Sea?"

Lan, Margarita, and Triss stood by the dining table. The demon hunter looked at a huge crab surrounded by gorgeous ice sculptures with interest.

If the legs of this crab are fully extended, the length is close to that of a ten-year-old child. Coupled with the sharp protrusions and large claws on the shell, it really looks like it can kill people.

However, compared with real monsters such as crab spiders and Kikimo, the "killer crab" is just a gimmick.

The crab as big as a villa that Lan had seen in the Crucified Forest Swamp in the Fire World was really terrifying.

"It will take half a month to transport it from the sea?"

"In fact, it was still on the seabed of Kovir two hours before the banquet started." Margarita used a silver spoon to scoop out a spoonful of crystal crab meat from the opened crab shell, and said to the demon hunter, "Teleportation is a great invention."

"Good, good." Lan En clapped his hands insincerely, "It would be better if the great invention could be popularized."

"Aren't we working on it? You say that as if we are all a bunch of lazy people."

Margarita rolled her eyes at him.

Lan En actually didn't want to come to the table to get the food, because at this kind of banquet, this action means that some kind of social obligation will also come at the same time.

Someone will recognize you and act as if they are happy about this fact, and then come forward to ask about your well-being, with a tone that is both warm and hypocritical.

After the mandatory air kiss and soft handshake, after the false smile and insincere but clever and pleasant compliments, there is a dull, brief and meaningless conversation.

Lan En only knew a few people here, namely the sorcerers who had communicated with him through telescopes about the research progress in the crystal cultivation project.

And even with these sorcerers, the communication between them was limited to academics.

After all, every time Lan En came back, it was a rest during the adventure across the world. He couldn't share his time with the sorcerers who had little friendship with him to chat about family matters.

It would be great if we could be friends by chance, but Lan En didn't feel any regrets if we only kept in touch at work.

Most of the people who came to say hello and contributed the boring and meaningless small talk as mentioned above were friends of the two female companions.

In Lan En's view, the human relations in the world, even the human relations across the world, are the same.

If you still act like a stranger is not allowed to enter when your female companion's friends come to you, and you don't even want to smile, then where do you put Margarita and Triss?

So although he didn't like this kind of communication, Lan En was still considerate and perfect, and completed all his social etiquette and obligations with ease.

His smile makes people feel like spring breeze. Just by looking at them and making some small movements, people can feel that they are highly valued and their hearts are burning.

Some people who seem to have poor social skills and come to talk to him stumblingly, even under Lan En's smile, become more and more fluent in their speech and more and more enthusiastic, even close to excitement.

Even the empty greetings are almost one-sided, and real friends are chatting.

And there is no doubt that the two sorceresses are getting closer to the demon hunter in this process.

Margarita and Triss's cheeks, which were slightly red due to drinking, are even more red. The delicate red extends from their cheeks to their slender necks, towering chests, and lower bodies.

For sorceresses, the envious eyes of others are the best aphrodisiac.

Originally, the two sorceresses brought a male companion to the event. These two sorceresses are the famous Dean Aretusa and the royal advisor of Temeria.

This is already a big news.

People were whispering, speculating and gossiping.

In this respect, the people at this noble and luxurious banquet were no different from the women in the village of Velen who gossiped while working.

But when Lan En really started to show some performance at the banquet, all these whispers disappeared.

People began to spontaneously understand and even envy these two sorceresses.

This kind of transcendent charm was not the first time Lan En showed it. At the end of the Battle of Sodden Mountain, almost all the soldiers who had seen his figure on the battlefield almost spontaneously saluted him after the battle.

Even the kings did not have this treatment at that time.

In the social world of fame and fortune, Lan En's charm was no less than that on the battlefield.

Although it was just a slight performance, the atmosphere of the entire banquet hall unconsciously turned into a vortex centered on him and began to stir.

Dixter looked normal, but he knew how surprised he was now.

God knows what happened! He just couldn't help but want to move in that direction!

If the wine glass in his hand hadn't spilled, he might have walked to the food counter now!

Dijkstra didn't go to Sodden Mountain in person during the last war, but only provided intelligence support in the rear.

But now he fully understood why Vizmir had such a complicated and indescribable expression when he mentioned this person after returning from Sodden Mountain.

"Is this magic?" Dijkstra looked at Philippa Ehart very seriously. He even repeated it again to strengthen his tone, "Is this some kind of magic?!"

Philippa also looked ugly and shocked: "You have never seen more wizards in your first half of life than in this room! If this is magic, do you think these people are all idiots? Are they rushing to get involved in other people's magic?"

But no matter what, Lan En has perfectly completed his social obligations at this banquet, and no one can find a thorn.

At the right time, the young demon hunter pulled himself out.

Tonight, he still wants to leave his energy and thoughts to those who are truly valuable, such as the ten great wizards of the Talent and Skill Association and the Supreme Council of Warlocks.

These people are the ones who truly determine the direction and will of the warlock group.

Convincing them will help to pour a basin of sobering cold water on the heads of those reckless kings.

Lan En was thinking so, but then, a friend was walking over with another friend in the crowd of the banquet.

Yennefer looked surprised, but also a little happy, while Geralt was completely expressionless.

But Lan, who was already familiar with the White Wolf, knew very well that under this expressionless face, he was completely at a loss.

"Sabina came to talk to me just now!" Yennefer went straight to Triss and Margarita, and snorted coldly, "Did you see her clothes? Only shameless and tasteless people would wear them! This woman is older than me!"

"Forget it, let's not talk about it. It seems that there is nothing to care about this woman."

The only thing she did was to turn her back to complain about people, as if female sorcerers were no different from ordinary women.

Triss and Margarita greeted her with shining eyes. "What did she ask you? Now everyone knows that Sabina is gathering information for Henselt of Kaedwen."

"Really?" Yennefer said in shock, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was joking.

The three sorceresses were laughing so hard while making private arrangements with others, while Geralt walked to Lann as if he was relieved.

He pulled at his collar, as if he was being strangled and couldn't breathe.

"Fortunately, you are here." White Wolf sighed, "This ridiculous dress and this uncomfortable new banquet. It's all making me breathless."

"Is it the rule of wizards to let everyone blow through the hallway and not be full even if they eat raw and cold seafood?"

"At present, it is true." Lann nodded, not surprised by Geralt's complaint. "But I see that Yennefer is actually very happy, and you are also happy. What happened?"

White Wolf's already expressionless expression suddenly became a little stiffer.

". I love Yennefer."

Lann was a little surprised: "I know, and then what?"

"I mean, I said it myself that I love her. Just now, after she was provoked by that Sabina."

Lann's expression was calm at first, and he blinked. Then, after he understood Geralt's words a second later, the young witcher's eyes slowly widened.

"Wow~"

The bear school witcher patted the wolf school witcher's shoulder excitedly, as if he was looking at a piece of wood that suddenly became smart!

"Geralt. Geralt! You've improved! A lot of improvement!"

"Then what? Tell me!"

"Then." Geralt's stiff mouth also smiled, "She also responded to me, the kind that can't wait."

"Then, respected Duke of Cintra." Yennefer intervened at this time, grabbing Geralt's hand and pulling it out. "We haven't seen each other for a long time, and the to-do list is very long. We have to do it one by one."

"Oh!" Lan En smiled friendly, "Yes, you must have a lot of things to talk about."

"Talking," Yennefer smiled ambiguously, looking at the white wolf beside her with suggestive and teasing eyes, "can be put at the back. It should be said that it will be put at the end, Lan En."

This answer made Lan En raise his eyebrows, and also made the other two sorceresses chuckle without saying anything.
