Chapter 35 - 34 - Undead Guest
Andrei looked at the gathered guests with a proud smile. He sipped his glass of wine little by little, a look of satisfaction radiating from his face.
He sat on a chair in the corner, but the chair he sat on was high enough that he could see all the guests.
Unlike usual, the party that Andrei held this time was not in a banquet hall. The party was held in the front yard that had been rearranged in such a way. Like the tables that were spread out at various points.
With the party in the open air, of course, the capacity of the guests he could invite also increased.
Under normal circumstances, Andrei wouldn’t have been able to invite as many guests as he did now. However, there was one reason why he could invite so many guests.
Members of the royal family would be attending this party.
The news had already spread among the nobles, so they were willing to come to this party that Andrei had held.
From beside Andrei, Marquess Taranin, who was sitting in a chair with the same shape as Andrei, leaned in to whisper, "Are you sure that King Vlasdislav will come?" He spoke in a low voice.
"If I’m not sure, why did I prepare such a magnificent chair?" Andrei pointed at a chair similar to a throne not far from him. "Just relax and wait."
Although Andrei spoke with confidence, the main guest he was waiting for did not arrive. That made him unable to hide his irritation.
Moments before, he had sensed something odd when he saw something strange. The two knights he had left to guard the mouth of the dungeon underground suddenly joined the party like fools.
