Master Tongtian

Chapter 405 The girl who lived for five or six hundred years (13)

In the East, although nobility is quickly becoming history, the tradition of balls has not been cancelled.

After all, this thing is not only liked by nobles, but also by common people.

So, after the dinner, there was a dance in the Blue Hall.

According to Eastern etiquette, for the first dance, the host will invite the guests to dance, and the guests must accept it to express their gratitude for the host's warm hospitality.

But the Moon Elf elders were extremely arrogant, and the Storm Duke had no confidence to speak.

So Fertana was the first to invite.

She is a powerful golden holy spirit, so the elf elders naturally give her face.

So, Fertana danced with a male elf.

She took the lead, and half of the masters, Duke Storm, Duchess, Heya Jiali, and Rosen, also invited them.

The Duke of Storms had a very good eye, so he invited the most beautiful Serraya, but was rejected.

The Duchess was successful.

Heyajiali invited a male elf, but was rejected because the other elf liked men. Instead, she invited Andraya, who succeeded.

The Duke of Storms was still alert and immediately turned around to invite the male elf who rejected his daughter, thus succeeding.

It's Rosen's turn.

Naturally, he was not interested in male elves, but there was only one female elf left on the field, so he shamelessly invited her.

"Ms. Serraya, can we dance with you in honor of you?"

After saying that, he sat back and waited for the other party to refuse.

Serraya glanced at Rosen, her eyes as cold as the stars in the sky.

Just when Rosen thought the other party was going to refuse, she put her hand wearing a silver gauze glove into Rosen's hand.

"Can."

What a surprise.

When the music started playing, Rosen took Serraya and danced on the dance floor with leisurely steps like walking in harmony with the soothing dance music.

I have to admit that this Serraya is astonishingly beautiful, and her temperament is even more cold, as sharp and clear as the stars in the sky.

But this was an extraordinary and powerful man from a foreign race. Rosen didn't dare to have the slightest idea. He just tried his best to entertain the guests out of etiquette.

After dancing for a while, seeing some impatience on Serraya's face, he immediately said: "Madam, you must be tired, why not just dance here?"

Without thinking about the other party, he shook his head: "You may have misunderstood. I'm just curious. Don't you keep your mouth shut when you dance?"

Rosen asked: "What topic is Madam interested in? Painting, stories, or something else?"

Serraya thought for a moment and said: "I can paint myself. Although I'm not as good at painting as you, I don't have much freshness. As for stories, it's obviously not suitable to talk about it on this occasion."

"Everyone says you are a master of logic and magic, why not talk about magic?"

Rosen didn't want to talk about this topic the last thing, but since the other party asked, it was natural to talk about it. After thinking about it for a while, he had a way to deal with it.

"To be honest, my reputation as a magic master is a bit false. They saw that I was an earl and had status, so they complimented me and said good things to me so that I could give generous rewards."

"And for masters of logic and magic like me, there are countless golden lands, and those who surpass me are even more numerous."

"Yeah?"

Serraya was dubious.

Rosen nodded: "Look, I'm just a level 1 archmage. I'm still far from the peak, let alone extraordinary. What does such a small achievement mean?"

"That's true."

Rosen immediately asked, "Madam, to be honest, this is my first time dancing with a transcendent. I am also very curious about you and want to know more about you."

"Then just ask, I'll answer if I can."

"Is your extraordinary state of immortality or immortality?"

If he is immortal, then he should be more relaxed; if he is not obsessed, then he should be more honest.

"Not confused. But you don't have to be afraid of me, because I don't like disputes."

"In addition, I am younger than my sister, and I have just been promoted to the Unconfused Realm for less than 100 years. My knowledge is also far less than that of my sister, so I am not as insightful into people's hearts as she is."

Rosen half-listened to these words and made up his mind to maintain the utmost respect.

He continued to ask: "Your sister, is Ms. Andraya?"

"That's right."

Rosen understood and continued to ask: "I heard that the moon elves advocate the balance of nature and believe that the coordinated development of man and nature is the best. Is this true?"

"Of course it's true."

"And I think the number of people in the Golden Lands, especially in the Eastlands, is increasing so fast that it's a disaster."

She had an incomprehensible expression on her face.

Rosen didn't want to talk about the Eastern Territory, so he asked, "Are there many elves on the Giant Island of Grant?"

"It's a lot, and I think it's a little crowded."

"Oh, about how many are there?"

"Ten million, maybe."

Rosen clicked his tongue in surprise: "Madam, I heard that the total area of ​​​​Grent Island is about 30 million states, which is equivalent to one elf living in three states. This is much more crowded than the Eastern Territory."

In addition, not all land is habitable, so the population density is already quite high.

Although there are 40 million people in the east, the total area reaches 120 million states, equivalent to more than 3.5 million square kilometers of the earth. Currently, there are still large areas of mountains and forests that have not been developed.

The Eastern Territory is the smallest among the five territories, and the Western Territory, the largest, has 800 million states. Of course, the place was desolate.

Serraya was startled for a moment, then shook her head: "That's different. We elves have more people because we live longer."

"So, our numbers are increasing bit by bit, and people and nature have enough time to adjust their relationships."

That's right.

Rosen praised: "What you said makes sense."

A smile appeared on Serraya's face, and she commented in a condescending tone.

"Many people in the East think that we moon elves are closed and backward, but in fact, our race has an extremely long history and has seen the rise and decline of countless races."

"If a race wants to exist for a long time, it requires not only strength, but also the wisdom to control power."

"In my opinion, the Golden Land lacks this kind of wisdom, so various turmoils often occur."

"Of course we are not afraid of small turmoil, but one day there will be huge turmoil. And once this happens and a powerful foreign race rises, that race will be in danger of extinction."

Putting aside the current situation of the two races, this statement is indeed very reasonable, and Rosen deeply agrees with it.

"Madam, you are right, we indeed lack the wisdom to control power."

Serraya was very happy when she saw that her words were recognized.

"I heard that people from the East are stubborn and arrogant, but you have subverted my stereotype."

Rosen smiled and said, "It probably has something to do with my origin in the north."

"The northern border is a miserable place, far less prosperous and prosperous than the eastern border. We northerners are often looked down upon by others. Of course, the northern border is indeed not as good as other lands, so I have developed the habit of humility."

Serraya praised: "Humility is a virtue."

Then he added: "I have heard many people say bad things about you all the way here. Now it seems that the basis of these bad words is jealousy, not facts."

Rosen sighed softly: "Maybe it's because I have been appreciated by Princess Morning Star. Her Royal Highness is the Rose of the East, so it is natural for her to be jealous. I have been mentally prepared for it."

Serraya glanced at Heya Jiali not far away.

"She is indeed a beautiful person, and her magic skills are not bad, but if she is not promoted to extraordinary, her beauty will soon wither."

Rosen immediately said: "We will work hard."

Serraya looked away, was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: "Compared with me or your fiancée, who is more beautiful?"

Rosen was startled, not expecting to encounter such a problem.

But after thinking about it, I can understand, because Serraya's appearance is also the best among elves. She naturally receives all kinds of compliments on weekdays, and over time she will naturally feel complacent.

When you meet a beautiful woman, you will naturally compare them.

As soon as my thoughts changed, I already thought of a way to avoid offending both parties.

"My fiancée is a flower blooming on the ground, delicate and charming, and you are a star in the sky, distant and eternal. Isn't it clear at a glance who is higher and who is lower?"

But there is another sentence at the end: "Compared with the stars that are out of reach, I still like flowers." ’

But of course you can't say this without thinking too much, lest the other party notices it.

Serraya was very happy: "It seems that Master Rosen not only has amazing painting skills, but also has a sweet mouth. It's a pleasure chatting with you."

With that, the dance ends.

The second scene was casual. Rosen took Heya Jiali to a seat by the dance floor and chatted with a few archmages.

After chatting for a while, Serraya came over and invited me.

"Master Rosen, how about one more dance?"

Rosen was startled and looked at Heya Jiali.

But the latter covered his mouth and chuckled, and replied with the voice of his heart: "Promise, after all, we are guests."

Rosen had no choice but to accept the invitation.

Soon he returned to the dance floor and continued dancing in a walking style.

"Master Rosen, my sister believes that the golden race is the development trend of the times, and believes that we must keep up with this trend in order to prevent our race from being eliminated by the times."

"What do you think of it?"

These words got to the point, and Rosen was refreshed and energetic.

He smiled and shook his head: "Ms. Serraya, I am not yet 20 this year. In other words, I have been in this world for less than 20 years."

"Such a short time has not allowed me to accumulate the wisdom to see through the development trends of the times. In fact, I am more curious about your views?"

Serraya nodded in approval of Rosen's words: "You are indeed too young, much smaller than my nieces, as if you were a newborn baby."

"But fortunately, you have the advantage of humility. With this advantage, you will be able to accumulate wisdom and insight quickly."

"Of course, I won't hesitate to share my opinions with you."

Serraya thought for a moment and said: "I also think that our tribe needs to make some changes and increase communication with the outside world, but when it comes to intermarrying with the human race, I think it is too much."

"After all, the life spans of the two sides are not equal. The life span of the common people in our clan is more than 300 years, and the life span of the high-level royal family is more than 500 years. If you are promoted to extraordinary, it will be even longer."

"The lifespan of the Golden Human race is generally less than a hundred. If both parties marry, one is still young and the other is already old. It will cause great psychological damage to both parties. It is really not a match."

"So, I think it is enough to strengthen communication. As for intermarriage, there is no forced order. It depends on personal wishes."

Rosen sincerely praised: "Madam, I think what you said is very reasonable. Doing this can keep the moon elves open while also taking care of the tradition. It is a good idea for both sides."

Serraya smiled: "It's really pleasant to get your approval."

"Too bad my sister doesn't agree."

She sighed softly, with a trace of confusion in her eyes.

"She believes that the wisdom of the crowd is mostly blind and pursues comfort, but the progress of the times is drastic and cruel, so traditions must be broken quickly, even if it means sacrifice, it is worth it."

"Hey~ To be honest, I think this makes sense, so I feel a little confused."

It could be seen that she was really at a loss, so much so that she fell into deep thought, dancing with Rosen like a marionette.

Rosen was completely dealing with diplomatic tasks. When the other party didn't speak, he fell silent and danced seriously.

After dancing for a while, Serraya suddenly said: "Master Rosen, do you think feelings are necessary in marriage?"

“I personally think it’s not necessary, but it’s best to have it.”

"Otherwise, two people living with a straight face all day long would be like two rough stones grinding together, which is really scary."

Serraya nodded in agreement: "Hmm~ I think you're right, but my sister doesn't think it's necessary. She thinks marriage is for the continuation of the race."

Rosen moved and asked, "Ms. Serraya, have you never experienced marriage?"

"No."

"why?"

"I don't know why, but when I was a mortal, there were still male elves pursuing me. When I was promoted to extraordinary, there were no more."

"And I'm a girl, so I can't take the initiative to pursue you, right?"

Rosen suddenly sympathized: 'It turns out she is a girl~~ No wonder she is as cold as an iceberg. ’

It seems that he is at least five or six hundred years old, and he has not experienced a complete life. Even though he is somewhat wise, he still unconsciously shows a trace of childishness.

It's really pitiful.

After the second song, Rosen returned to the dance floor to rest.

There were about five shows in one night, and soon the music started playing for the third show. Rosen was afraid of being invited again, so he immediately pulled Heya Galli to dance.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Selaya was sitting on the sidelines watching her dance.

I felt more and more sympathetic in my heart: 'Okay, okay, if you come to me again in the end, I will dance with you. ’

As a result, in the fourth and fifth games, Serraya actually occupied her. She did not concentrate on dancing, but chatted with Rosen.

What else can Rosen do? I'll just try my best to keep him company.

After the last dance was over, Serraya invited: "Can you draw my portrait first tomorrow?"

"As you wish."

When she got on the carriage and returned to the Blue Rose Garden, Heya Jiali showed a trace of sadness on her face.

"Brother, I think that beautiful elf is attracted to you."

Fertana also agreed: "I think so too, and I think Rosen made a great move for the alliance between the two races!"

Rosen was speechless: "Sage, I already have three wives. I think that even if we get married, we should not look to me, but to Jia Li's brother."

He really has enough wives!

Heyajiali nodded repeatedly: "That's right, three is just right now. Chatting is usually lively, and if there are more, it will be a meeting."

Fertana spread her hands: "The six elf elders are all extraordinary, and three of them are strong in the realm of non-confusion."

"And Father God is not here. In terms of extraordinary power alone, the Moon Elves with the Three Saints of Elves are actually stronger than us."

In terms of the number of extraordinary beings, there are naturally many golden lands, many more.

But the strongest Golden Holy Spirit, Davalens, is only at the peak of the Immortality Realm, but the three Elf Saints are all strong in the middle stage of the Immortality Realm.

Extraordinary energy bandwidth, the gap between the strong and the weak is huge. In a real fight, the Golden God Clan without the Golden God is no match for the Moon Elves.

Fertana finally said: "I think that since Andraya has shown the idea of ​​forming an alliance, it is best not to let this good opportunity pass."

"After all, one more ally means one less opponent. An increase and a decrease will greatly benefit the security of the Golden Land."

She looked at Rosen.

"Marriage may not be necessary, but for the sake of the overall situation, you have to appease Serraya's emotions."

Fertana had already taken a step back, and what she said made sense, so Rosen nodded: "I will."

The novel becomes increasingly difficult to write as it goes on.

If you update four times a day, you have to revise articles and write new chapters. You also have to exercise to maintain physical energy. You are so busy that you can't breathe. The characterization and storyline will inevitably become rough.

Therefore, three updates will be restored temporarily.
