Chapter 28 - 16: The Ball
The Earl was a lord, and the Duke was also a lord, but he was a "great" lord. However, Gray had no concept of just how "great," and he had even been quite confused at one point why Miss Yilin, whose figure was obviously smaller than Count Caspar's, was regarded as a "great" lord.
After all, in the underground, the difference between a "great" Lich and a "small" Lich was the strength of their magic power, which Gray could sense. But humans seemed to judge solely based on physical size.
As for the so-called super great lord "the King," Gray had initially imagined him to be a giant...
For most straightforward concepts, such as father, daughter, or only child, Gray had managed to figure them out in the past ten days, but for things that needed relative references, he had no clue at all.
*He didn't understand and didn't dare to ask... That was his daily portrayal. The key was that the Black Cat, who he could casually ask, often spoke in reverse, to the point that he didn't know whether he should believe it or not.*
*Humans truly were complex creatures, even turning into ghosts that possess cats didn't make them any less complicated.*
*It had to be said, for a Lich to integrate into human society, there was an incredible amount to learn, and worse still, these things often fell under what humans "naturally understand," so there was no way he could find a corresponding book in the bookstore to learn step by step.*
*Of course, even given the current situation, his progress was very rapid. After all, he was a smart Lich.*
*Actually, are there any dumb Liches?*
Accompanying Miss Yilin walking into the mansion, they were met by fifty to sixty servants dressed in uniform attire, lined up in two rows. Gray was stunned by the grandeur.
Turning around, Miss Yilin spread her arms and said, "Everyone has worked hard, go and rest now. Tonight, a ballroom dance will be held here. Be sure to attend."
