Chapter 311: Noble Banquet
After everything in the North had settled, and before they were set to return, Ansu and Celia went to see a special guest.
Sunset Manor, located over three hundred kilometers from Elvin Village, was the ancestral territory of the Alston family, long famous for brewing the finest red wine in the North.
The usually quiet manor was extraordinarily lively today.
Nobles and gentry from all over the North had gathered here. The gentlemen were dressed in crisp tailcoats, and the ladies wore magnificent evening gowns. Accompanied by a melodious violin solo, men and women stepped elegantly to the music, the air thick with the scent of luxury and decadence.
Walking down the corridor leading to the main hall, Celia noticed Ansu’s gaze lingering on the crowd for a long time. She smiled and teased, “You haven’t even blinked. What, have you taken a fancy to some beautiful noble lady?”
Ansu laughed helplessly and turned to look at her.
“No noble lady is as beautiful as you. I was just observing which Northern nobles are attending the banquet.”
Just like the bonfire celebration with the four demihuman tribes, the Northern nobles were holding a grand victory banquet under the host of Edmond Alston.
“I know.” Celia was just joking and didn't actually think Ansu had fallen for some bejeweled noble lady. After all, Ansu’s standards were quite high.
