Chapter 77 - 12: Audilet Grand Theater (2)
"Duke Fernandes invites you to attend tonight’s ball at his estate in Lion King City. Count Sanchez, Earl Durand, Count Shulz... nearly all the nobles of Lion King City will be there. The scale may even surpass the ball previously hosted by His Majesty the King."
"Duchess Tangjis invites you to this afternoon’s tea party, which should have no fewer than fifty attendees."
In the Lion King Palace, Yilin was leaning against the armrest of the sofa, sipping tea while listening to Abi Robbs’ report. She asked softly, "Has Duke Tangjis already arrived in Lion King City?"
"No, he himself has not come."
"He won’t come," said Count Gruglu, seated nearby. "He just had a fallout with the Royal Family, so it’s impossible for him to be here at this time."
"But his wife and son have come." With that, Abi Robbs glanced at Count Gruglu and said, "My Lord Count, names of both you and the Holy Knight are included in the invitation from Duke Fernandes. Additionally, Duchess Tangjis specifically invited Miss Shelley in her invitation. These two invitations are the most significant ones today. And then there are... this many others."
Abi Robbs displayed the stack of invitations in his hand. A thick pile, no fewer than thirty.
"The most influential families in all of Lion King City have sent invitations? It seems the Beishier Duchy is already at the center of the storm." Count Gruglu chuckled.
Yilin, however, said nothing, merely listening quietly.
