Chapter 85 King Mortonface
Chapter 85 King Morton Face
Li Si stroked the gray amulet in his hand, with a strange expression on his face, as if he was thinking about something.
After I came back from [McGuire's Tomb of Death] this time, I always felt that Joyce was a little weird.
First, he found an excuse to go to the library and met the girl with white hair and red eyes who was a genius mage. Now, he gave himself a precious shadow amulet.
Although I can feel that Joyce really cares about me, but how to say it?
It's like being a good friend and roommate in college, and suddenly discovering that he is a rich second generation when you graduate.
But then again, where did Joyce get this shadow talisman?
Can such a precious thing be owned by ordinary people?
Why does my butler feel more and more mysterious?
Li Si rubbed his aching temples and thought about it.
I feel like my strength has broken through, and there are more and more things I need to worry about.
Let's first think about the meeting with the king tomorrow. I don't know what will happen then.
Li Si carefully placed the shadow amulet on his body, and after making sure it was OK, he fell on the bed and fell into a peaceful sleep (fog~).
——
The next morning.
Under the service of the maid Rosie, Li Si put on the formal clothes that Joyce had prepared in advance.
Today, Li Si is wearing a low-key yet graceful gray-blue dress. It is well-cut, and the combination of some ribbons and shirring adds a sense of classic elegance.
Putting on a pure black cloak, he looked like a heroic young man from the painting.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Li Si shook his head.
"Being too handsome is also a burden."
In fact, the style of men's aristocratic attire in the Kingdom of Fes has begun to slowly change to the style of military uniforms, but for today's occasion, Li Si still had to wear something more formal.
Li Si was not used to it. He liked looser clothes. When Rossi put them on for him, he felt a little tight.
I really don’t know how those aristocratic women will be strangled when they wear evening dresses.
Li Si shook his head and easily took down Angela who was still trying to lie on his head.
"Angela, I have to go out today and I can't take you with me. Just stay at home."
"Oh fine."
Angela, who originally wanted to follow Li Si out for some delicious food, had no choice but to fly aside obediently. Li Si rarely treated her so seriously.
If possible, of course Li Si would take Angela with him if he wanted to go out, but this time he went to the palace, which was heavily guarded.
How could Angela, a gold-level vampire, let Li Si be brought to the king?
Moreover, there is a legendary powerful person hidden in the Fes royal family.
If Li Si remembered correctly, this legendary monk should be in the palace now.
So Li Si didn't have to worry about his own safety at all.
After Li Si packed up, groom Bender was already waiting at the entrance of the courtyard, and he was going to take Li Si to the palace.
Angela watched Li Si board the carriage and leave from the window of the mansion. After thinking about it, she flew towards the library.
Li Si was away, Rosie was tired of sleeping, and Angela wanted to go sleep with the little sister Risa from last time.
——
Bright City, Fes Palace.
It is more like a huge castle than a palace.
The strong and majestic city wall separates the castle from Fez Street, which seems to be a small independent world with buildings and gardens distributed in an orderly manner.
The architectural style of the castle is somewhat similar to the Gothic architecture of Lisi's previous life. The towering black spire, white mottled walls, and traces of time have given the castle a calmer atmosphere.
After several inspections, Li Si was finally taken to a beautifully decorated reception room.
There were spacious and comfortable sofas, and a wide variety of exquisite desserts were placed on the multi-layered dessert table. The palace maid had already placed hot black tea in front of Li Si.
This is indeed a private party, not too formal.
Li Si didn't feel nervous at all about meeting His Majesty the King. Instead, he looked at the desserts in front of him and felt that they were indeed much better than his own chef.
Li Si is not very good at making desserts, and there was no oven for Li Si in the orphanage in his previous life.
After waiting for a moment, the door opened gently from the outside.
Li Si immediately stood up and bowed slightly to show respect.
Duke Harder walked in supporting an old man.
This face was very familiar to Li Si. It was none other than His Majesty the current king of the Kingdom of Fes, Morton Fes.
"Good morning, it's an honor to meet you, Your Majesty Morton."
Lee's performance was impeccable.
After the embarrassment with Ya'er in this regard at the last party, Li Si learned the entire set of aristocratic etiquette from Joyce, and now no one can find fault.
"Li Si, right? Sit down."
Morton sat in the main seat with the support of Vosys and said to Li Si with a smile.
After Li Si saluted, he also sat down respectfully. His Majesty the King did not relax at all because of His Majesty's friendly expression as a neighbor's grandfather.
Li Si knew that His Majesty the King later dealt with the domestic rebellion with ruthless methods.
Morton glanced at the snack shelf. The maid on the side understood immediately, took out a piece of honey fruit cake, cut it into small pieces and placed it on the table in front of the king.
Putting a piece of cake into his mouth, Morton smiled and said:
"As I get older, I like to eat these sweet things even more."
Li Si smiled and said nothing, and took a piece of dessert and placed it in front of him.
"Ha ha."
Morton thought the young man named Li Si in front of him was interesting and asked:
"I have rarely seen our Viscount Kane at palace banquets?"
"I was obsessed with magic research before and rarely attended similar gatherings. Please forgive me, His Majesty the King."
Li Si replied calmly.
"No wonder he is so good at such a young age."
Vosys nodded in agreement, trying to be a qualified compliment.
Li Si also echoed His Majesty the King and said a few words, and the atmosphere was cheerful.
Morton said to Li Si with a smile on his face:
"You must be curious about why I invited you here, right?"
As soon as Li Si heard this, he knew that the main event was coming, and he quickly straightened up and looked like he was listening carefully.
"I have to thank you for saving little Taiya once."
Li Si had a puzzled expression, as if he was thinking about who the little Taya was that Morton mentioned.
Morton looked at Li Si's confused look and said meaningfully:
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, little Taiya is my daughter and a teammate of your adventure group, Ya'er."
"Is Ya'er turned out to be Princess Taiya?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Li Si's face, as if he had learned Ya'er's identity for the first time.
His Majesty the King looked at Li Si with a smile and said:
"Since you saved my daughter, I won't say thank you. What reward do you want?"
Li Si's expression changed and he said sincerely:
"I don't dare. Even without me, Princess Taiya will not be in danger. The Golden Lion Knights have already arrived."
"But if His Majesty wants to give me a reward, no matter what it is, it will be recognition of me. Li Si will only be grateful in his heart."
"That's it." Morton looked at Li Si and said:
"Then I'll let you choose!"
Please vote for me, thank you guys!
It will be on the shelves next week, are you ready?
