Three days passed in an instant.

The Sudor family's dinner arrived as scheduled.

As night fell, there was a lot of traffic in front of the castle in the center of Ice Rock City, and a large number of nobles gathered to attend the banquet.

It must be said that the timing chosen by Cynthia Sudol was extremely clever.

Originally, with the influence of the Suduo family, it would have been impossible to invite such a large number of nobles to the banquet.

But at this time, the troll army was withdrawing from the north, and the lost castles were easily recovered one by one. Although it was a bit self-deceiving, it could still be regarded as a victory.

Moreover, the only two marquises in the north happened to be in Ice Rock City.

Under such circumstances, unless Duke Saint Hilde personally holds a banquet in Winter City, Ice Rock City tonight is destined to become the focus of the North.

The dinner started at six o'clock, and Colin arrived at half past five.

He came alone.

This was a high-level aristocratic banquet, so it was naturally impossible for the guests to be allowed to bring in civilian attendants.

Knight Raymond was originally barely qualified to participate, but he had been sent back to Graycastle Town by Colin to report the matter.

Colin felt that he could now be regarded as someone who could establish a relationship with the two heirs of the St. Hilde family. Presumably Count Uman did not dare to be too presumptuous.

Therefore, there is no need to cower and hide in the dark.

So he sent Raymond back to inform him, lest the family would think he was dead and cause trouble.

"Sorry sir, please show me the invitation letter."

When the guard at the castle gate saw Colin, his expression suddenly became extremely exciting, and he quickly stopped to ask.

Colin took out the invitation and handed it to the guard.

The guard quickly took it and then verified it carefully. After confirming that it was correct, he had to let it go: "I'm sorry, Lord Colin, for causing you trouble. Welcome to the dinner! Please come in!"

Colin then Shi Shiran entered the castle.

Along the way, when everyone saw him, they all looked at him in surprise, and many people even pointed secretly and whispered something.

Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author.

Colin paid no attention to these looks and continued walking to the banquet hall with his head held high.

"My Lord Knight, please wait a moment!"

Unfortunately, he was stopped by the steward of the Suduo family at the entrance of the hall.

The butler recognized the coat of arms of the Angelet family at a glance and said with a smile: "You are Knight Colin, right?"

"Yes." Colin crossed his arms and was thinking about whether to smash the fake smile on the butler's face with a punch.

Not knowing whether he had heard of Colin's reputation or felt the danger, the butler took a step back and said, "Sorry, Knight Colin, you cannot come to this banquet wearing armor."

Yes, Colin couldn't find a dress, so he just came wearing the armor he just bought.

It stands to reason that this is indeed quite rude.

However, Colin was already prepared.

He asked calmly: "Then what should I wear?"

"Of course you should wear a dress." The butler's eyes seemed to be looking at a fool.

He had even begun to signal the guards next to him with his eyes, preparing to drive this disrespectful knight out of the castle.

"Dress?" Colin sneered, suddenly punched his breastplate hard, and said loudly, "The North has just suffered such a humiliation, and the troll army has just evacuated, and they returned with a full load unscathed!

You all still have the heart to dress up here and sing and dance?

What about our counterattack?

What about our revenge?

What about our blood?

Why haven't we done anything?

I am just a little knight and have no right to question the decisions of adults!

but!

I feel unworthy of my father, Baron Angelet, who died on the front line!

As his only son, I hereby swear an oath not to avenge this, and never to disarm! "

The whole place was silent!

Colin's righteous words seemed to press the pause button on the scene.

Everyone looked at this strange man in armor who came to the banquet in stunned silence.

Especially the old butler of the Suduo family.

Until now, his mind was still buzzing.

I don’t know whether he was shocked by Colin’s loud voice or by what he said.

At this time, he also knew that he would not be able to drive this rude knight out of the castle as planned.

Colin was indeed rude, but he took advantage of it!

Strictly speaking, this banquet does have the flavor of whitewashing peace.

But this is not because the previous tragic defeat was too sudden, and the troll's retreat was too unexpected.

Therefore, the lords and nobles who had easily regained their lost territory urgently needed an opportunity to cover up their previous failures and promote their current "victory".

Therefore, this banquet to celebrate "victory" appeared under the promotion of all parties.

Unexpectedly, someone actually stood up and tore this false mask of "victory" to pieces, and smashed it into the faces of the nobles.

Among the crowd, Cynthia Sudol was also there.

She wanted to see with her own eyes how ugly this annoying guy Colin was when he was kicked out of the castle, but she didn't expect that she actually saw this scene.

Cynthia almost bit her silver teeth into pieces, but at the same time, a trace of regret emerged in her heart.

This banquet was originally a great opportunity for the Suduo family to become famous, but now, it seems to have become a joke.

All because of one person.

A person who was originally insignificant.

Someone she had intended to humiliate in some small way.

Perhaps, it shouldn’t be a waste of time...

Colin didn't know that the crazy woman Cynthia was also looking at him, still looking upright and awe-inspiring.

He ignored the looks from around him and strode forward as if no one else was around.

"Bang!"

The old housekeeper, who was still dazed, was knocked hard by Colin and staggered.

But he didn't dare to stop it anymore.

Watching Colin wearing that pure white armor, he walked into the banquet hall.

There were already many nobles attending the meeting gathered in the hall. When they saw Colin walking into the hall, everyone had different expressions, whispering to each other, and talking about it.

Obviously, Colin's loud voice just now carried those "bold words" into the banquet hall.

Therefore, he naturally became the temporary focus of the banquet.

However, no one came forward to say hello to him.

Clearly, Colin was isolated.

But he didn't care.

Even my heart is full of joy.

After all, this was a banquet planned by that crazy woman with every possible means. She originally wanted to make the Sudo family famous, but now, it seems to have been completely ruined by Colin's remarks.

There is still a little time before the banquet officially starts.

Therefore, the nobles attending the meeting are still arriving one after another.

The newcomers clearly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the hall. After asking others, they found out that it was Colin who had done the good deed.

As a result, more and more eyes were turned to Colin.

Colin also felt a little bored and simply closed his eyes.

As time goes by, the status of the visitor is getting higher and higher.

Until Marquis Charles appeared at the door of the hall.

Then, the banquet suddenly became quiet again.

This is not because of the high prestige of Marquis Charles among the nobles. On the contrary, due to a series of previous disastrous defeats, his reputation among the northern nobles is now very bad.

But his appearance still silenced the whole place again.

Because, he also wore a suit of armor!
