Chapter 347 - 347: Ball
Matthew wanted to decline again
Rheagar looked like he was in pain.
“How could you bear to do that?
“Zeller has to worry about so many things in Rolling Stone Town. Shouldn’t we help him?
Besides, the war in the South is still uncertain. He went to the South Trade
Station today to observe the situation. He might not be back in time tonight.
It’s settled then. I’ll deal with Lady Alena, and you deal with Little Judy!”
Rheagar said so.
Matthew couldn’t find any other excuse, so he had to agree.
“Speaking of which, this cemetery of yours is quite stylish. It’s just that the location of the toilet isn’t quite right. How can there be a toilet in the middle?” Rheagar looked as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden as he casually said.
Matthew tensed up.
“Which toilet are you referring to?”
Rheagar turned around and pointed at the negative energy fountain behind him.
“Isn’t that the toilet?”
Only then did Matthew notice that this fellow was holding his belt with one hand, and his face was slightly red.
“Did you drink?”
Matthew couldn’t help but raise his voice an octave.
“Yeah, I drank a little in the afternoon. I’ve been too busy recently, and I’m too frustrated.”
Rheagar patted his cheek.
“But don’t worry, I’m very clear-headed!”
“Speaking of which, I just walked to the toilet and wanted to pee. Before I could pee, those zombies pounced on me. I was so scared that I quickly ran away. You have to teach your underlings what manners are!”
Matthew heaved a sigh of relief and said seriously.
” That place isn’t a toilet, but a fountain from the negative energy plane. You should thank my zombies. Otherwise, if you stay there longer, you won’t have to think about Lady Alena at all.
‘ And if it was Peggy and not a zombie guarding the fountain, you wouldn’t even have the chance to take it out!”
He personally sent off the slightly tipsy Rheagar.
Matthew took the invitation and walked back. When he passed by the oak forest, he met Eli.
‘ Matthew, I heard everything just now. That uncultured old hooligan invited you to the ball?
” I heard that Lady Alena will be there too. “Can you take me there?
Eli looked at Matthew expectantly.
Matthew looked troubled.
” There’s no problem in theory, but this matter involves the political dealings between Rolling Stone Town and Deep Blue Harbor…’
Eli asked blankly,
“Your politics is about toying with women?”
Matthew choked, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn’t refute it.
He could only say,
” The interaction between humans contains many complicated actions and meanings. And tonight’s situation is very special. I can’t cause trouble for Rheagar. Do you understand?
“I’m afraid that you’ll do something drastic when you see Lady Alena or someone else after you go in.”
Eli said confidently,
I’m a Druid. I won’t go overboard.
“And if you’re worried about me, I can turn into a kitten. You just have to bring me in.
” I just want to know what kind of person Miss Alena is up close. I won’t cause you any trouble. Please believe me, Matthew!”
Matthew thought for a moment and finally agreed.
” That’s fine, but I have to add one more condition. Tonight at the ball, you have to maintain your cat form from beginning to end, no matter what happens. Can you do that?”
Eli nodded vigorously.
By the way, I have to remind you that Lady Alena is the City Lord of Deep Blue Port. She has a lot of power and wealth on the East Coast. It’s said that she’s also a little bit beautiful. There are many people in the entire South who covet her. You have to be mentally prepared.”
Since he had promised to bring Eli along, Matthew had to give him a heads-up.
Eli said seriously, “You are wrong.”
Matthew was surprised. “What’s wrong?”
Eli corrected him,
“Lady Alena is as beautiful as a fairy, not a little beautiful.”
Matthew was speechless.
He felt his heart thump, and this feeling had become more frequent recently.
“So, will I have many competitors in the entire South?” Eli asked enthusiastically.
Seeing his optimistic look, Matthew simply attacked him.
” Yes, there’s one in Rolling Stone Town. He’s more mature than you, more powerful than you, richer than you, and more handsome than you. Even in terms of fighting ability, the two of you are probably on par. “The only thing he’s inferior to you in is that he’s much older than you!” The more Eli listened, the more serious his expression became.
In the end.
He looked at Matthew in despair. “I knew you would go after Miss Alena too.” Matthew said in surprise,
“Why do you think that person is me?”
Eli blurted out,
My intuition was bestowed by the Wilderness Path!”
Matthew said angrily,
” I have no interest in Lady Alena. You can rest assured about that.”
Eli heaved a sigh of relief.
He looked unusually excited.
“Really? If you also like Ms. Alena, we can compete fairly!” Matthew was too lazy to waste his breath on him. “Remember to transform into a cute kitten at night.”
8 PM.
Lights lit up outside the official posthouse in Rolling Stone Town. Several carriages lined up on the street outside the door. Occasionally, a couple dressed in luxurious clothes would walk through the main door..
