Mage? Spell Engineer!
Chapter 65 The Palace Night Banquet Begins
The lanterns are bright and the rituals and music are singing.
"The Archmage Leonor Cano has arrived! The Mage Rorschach has arrived!"
The guards informed everyone, and Rorschach underwent a security inspection and entered the palace with Kano. He felt that the palace's security check was just better than nothing. For example, the Najie was not taken away. Another example was that as long as he had the ability to cast spells, it was very possible to take away an ordinary person, although his identity might not be ordinary.
The high-collar formal dress made Rorschach's neck uncomfortable, and the whole process of entering the palace was quite uncomfortable. After passing through the hall full of mirrors, the marble floor was chilly. Only when we arrived at the banquet hall did it finally warm up, and opening the door felt like spring.
"During the war, spellcasters are prohibited from approaching the palace unless they are loyal to the king and become a court mage."
Kano said as he stepped into the restaurant. His Majesty the King's seat was vacant at the highest seat in the middle, with tables for guests on both sides. Rorschach followed and felt a weak magic power flowing in an orderly manner. It seemed to be a protective or alarm spell. The changes in the ether are very weak, and Rorschach would definitely not be able to detect them without the orange "magic control".
Ever since a powerful king was born a hundred years ago, powerful nobles have frequently had dinner with the king. The banquets are sumptuous and lengthy, but everyone must obey. Only serious illness or participation in foreign wars are allowed to be absent. This is a tradition of loyalty to His Majesty, and today the waiter led Cano and Rorschach to the first table on the left--close to the king's seat.
"In this seat, arcane masters and special envoys from the empire have sat. I am the first low-level mage from the empire to sit in this seat." Kano sighed with emotion. It's a pity that after seeing the decoration of the palace, Rorschach only cares about the delicious food at the banquet now that the novelty has passed.
"Don't have high hopes," Kano lowered his voice and muttered sideways to Rorschach: "It's definitely not as good as what you had at the Starlight Torch Restaurant."
"Chief Minister of the Privy Council, Monsignor Du Plessis has arrived!" A man in a red robe limped in, and the sound of his cane tapping on the marble floor was heard during the music.
He sat in the first seat at His Majesty's right hand, facing Master Kano and Rorschach. Seeing Rorschach, Du Plessis nodded.
Rorschach could only nod, while Kano raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
Next, "Master Necker, the Financial Secretary of the Privy Council and the Financial Controller of the Royal Family, has arrived!" Necker walked briskly, with an friendly smile, and Valan followed behind, very excited, his ears were bloodshot, and his face was red. Rorschach always felt that his blush was a little unhealthy.
When Valang saw Rorschach, the chief on the left, he always felt familiar and couldn't help but take a closer look. Entering the time when he could no longer speak, Kano couldn't help it anymore, and even used [Messaging Technique]: "You know a lot of high-ranking people in the kingdom."
Kano felt comfortable after complaining, and it was Rorschach's turn to feel uncomfortable: He can't do this damn trick! Now Rorschach is staring at the newly added gray [Messaging Technique] on the panel, being tickled by his one-way teammate Mai.
During the ceremony and music, more and more guests took their seats. Some of them had been waiting in the Hall of Mirrors for a while, but due to etiquette and the hierarchy of the Holy Kingdom, they could only queue behind the big shots.
Rorschach noticed that some nobles came with their wives, and some nobles had the privilege of wearing swords and sat down openly with their swords. Granol came with his wife and sat on the right side with the nobles. Nemo, Ina and Francois also arrived, sitting on the left side with Carnot and Rorschach.
"Boy, if you hadn't taken advantage of me, you would have sat down with them."
I also want to sit with Ina and Francois! Rorschach relied on "Magic Mastery" to carefully feel how the ether was converted into sound waves and how it was accurately transmitted into his ears. The gray of the [Communication Technique] on the panel became a little lighter, as if it would soon turn white.
"Have you noticed that none of the people who can sit in high positions have female companions? Our prime minister, finance minister, and old man. Oh, His Highness the Prince doesn't count. He failed in courtship. Everyone knows that this ambitious and greedy old man The daughter of the Grand Duke of the South." Cano started gossiping.
Talk more, talk more, and I'll be able to open the mic soon! Rorschach touched a doorway, and the panel displayed [Communication Technique (Light Gray)] "?" "Frequency Vibration (White)".
"So this rule tells us that women can only influence you to achieve great things. But there is one exception. If you can find a mage as your teacher, I will support it. Little Rorschach, what do you think of Mage Ina? You haven't told me about the two of you yet. As for things in the secondary plane, I think he looks pretty good. Although he is a bit older, his age is not a problem for us spell casters. Do you want me to help you?"
I'm sorry, you are a feudal old man. Rorschach scoffed at this suspected discriminatory idea, and Kano found out that Rorschach did not reply to him, so he was annoyed: "Don't tell me that you don't even know [Messaging], be careful to let you take the zero-level spell course when I go back. "
The music suddenly became passionate, and amid the grand drumbeats and blowing, "His Majesty the King has arrived!" Rorschach saw the most powerful man in the Holy Kingdom up close with his own eyes. He had no expression on his face and could not tell what he was thinking. Wearing a well-groomed wool wig. Before sitting down, Rorschach also saw His Majesty Charlie's stubby calves stretched tight by silk white socks.
The king who was as great as the sun, inherited from his father and his ancestors, was not tall. His face was covered with a light white lead, his face was loose and his double chin could be seen, and he was built like a cook. In short, he could not match the heroic spirit.
If Rorschach were to follow stereotypes, he neither looked like a tall and straight hero with high martial arts, nor did he look like an old king with a white and long beard, deep eyes and high intelligence. As soon as the king appeared, everyone stood up, the wizard and Duplesi applauded, and the nobles, led by the ceremonial officer, cheered three times for his majesty.
"Are you a little disappointed? I have seen the emperor of the empire, who is more powerful and handsome. The difference between the taste of the dinner and the Xingguang Torch Restaurant is just like the difference between your Majesty and your emperor." Unexpectedly, Tangtang got stuck. Master Nuo is a talkative at banquets.
[Messaging Technique (White)], I can finally open the mic! Luo Xia quickly replied: "I have neither met the emperor nor eaten at the palace banquet. Your analogy is invalid!"
"What are you doing! Why are you speaking so loudly!" Kano couldn't be rude in front of the emperor, and he could only endure it when Rorschach's unskilled [Messaging Technique] pierced his ears.
"I'm sorry, I just learned it, and I'm not yet proficient at it."
"You two, although [Messaging Technique] is not within the scope of spell alert, it is really inappropriate for you to use it to arrange His Majesty like this?" Luo Xia did not expect that the call could turn into a group chat, and heard a second familiar voice. , the master of the voice, Archbishop Du Plessis, was looking at him with a dark face from the opposite side.
"Let's stop chatting. We forgot that Du Plessis is a living saint. His damn perception is so high?" Cano also didn't expect that his [Messaging Technique] could be captured by Du Plessi.
Although he did not try to encrypt or use special spell-casting techniques, he was an archmage. He was confident that Granol would not be able to hear anything he said even if he was close to Rorschach's ear. However, the message was intercepted by the bishop on the opposite side.
Duplesi proved to the two mages that the Prime Minister, one of the top powers in the Holy Kingdom, was also top-notch in divine magic.
