These books full of historical pen and ink are a very good supplement for him to further understand the wizarding world.
Putting the books on the desk casually, Lu Qi stood up immediately? Looking at Kaila:
"Shall we go to the banquet now?"
Hearing this? Keira frowned suddenly, "Are you kidding? Are you going to the banquet dressed like this? The guards won't let you in at all!"
Looking down at the cloak and leather armor on his body? Lu Qi spread his hands indifferently? "Please forgive me for not being a gentleman who often attends banquets..."
"It can be seen... come on, you have to change into a more suitable one? It won't be seen that you are attending a banquet for the first time."
After finishing speaking, Keira turned around and walked out of the room.
"Where to go?"
"Go shopping for clothes!"
. . .
"Wow? Much better now! You look handsome!"
At the most famous "Mrs. Emily" clothing store in the city, he bought a set of expensive aristocratic tight-fitting clothes and changed them on the spot. Lu Qi finally got Keira's praise.
From the time he met Keira? Until the two gradually became acquainted? Lu Qi felt more and more like a soft-fed guy who was taken care of by a sorceress and rich woman.
Although strictly speaking, it's all a business of collecting money to do things.However, Keira's initiative and provocation made Lu Qi always feel like a sorceress is greedy for his body.
Damn, this inexplicably exciting feeling? What's going on...
Pulling the sleeves that were close to the skin, Lu Qi greeted the satisfied Kaila? On her uneven figure, he swept it away? Then he said:
"Thank you for the compliment, you are beautiful too."
The female sorceress who was praised? She wasn't shy at all? Instead, she raised her chin generously? Responding confidently:
"Of course! I'm Kayla Metz!"
As soon as the words were finished, Kaila, who was obviously in a good mood, stretched out her hand to take the initiative to hold Lu Qi's arm, and stood in front of the mirror for a closer look.
At this moment, she blinked her eyes, as if remembering something, she suddenly said:
"By the way, you'd better not bring your weapon with you later, the banquet should be like a banquet, not a place for fighting and killing."
Hearing this, Lu Qi turned his gaze, glanced at the black cloak and steel sword he had replaced, and nodded thoughtfully:
"I see."
. . . . . .
Passing through the sea gates, leading directly to Kaduo Street of Xaned Island, Keira and Lu Qi, who were sitting in a carriage, arrived at the entrance of Xaned Island.
A heavily armed guard in armor stopped the carriage.
On the chest of the guard, there is a red background and a white eagle's coat of arms, which is the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Redania.
This detail made Lu Qi frowned, further confirming his guess.
In the Kingdom of Temeria, and on Thaned Island, which is full of warlocks, the soldiers from Redania are on guard, which seems unusual...
Seeing a man and a woman getting out of the car, the guards with serious faces bowed slightly and said:
"Sir and Ma'am, hello both of you."
"We're here for the banquet."
"Please show me the invitation letter."
Immediately afterwards, Keira took out an exquisite invitation letter from nowhere and handed it to the guard.
After checking it and confirming that it was correct, the guard stepped aside and gestured with his hand:
"No problem, I hope you two have a good time tonight."
Only then did the two abandon the carriage and walk into this majestic and mysterious island of warlocks.
Shaned Island, from the outside, doesn't look like an island at all, but looks more like a huge pyramid.
On the seabed, there are giant stone pillars supporting the entire building complex.
The pyramids are surrounded by spiral paths and zigzag steps and terraces.Next to the terrace, there are orchards and gardens everywhere, full of greenery.
The Isle of Thaned is divided into three main parts, namely Gastang Palace, the main palace where the mage conference is held, Arethusa Academy, which is specially for sorceresses to study, and Rosha Palace, which receives visitors and guests.
The place where the banquet was held was Arethusa Palace in the north of the island.
According to Keira, because a large number of mages came to attend the meeting and needed to arrange accommodation, the young students of Arethusa and the entourage of the warlocks were transferred to the palace of Lorsha.
The Arethusa Palace was used as the venue for the banquet, and a large number of Redanian soldiers were dispatched to guard the entrances and exits to ensure that the banquet would not be disturbed by idlers.
It wasn't until this moment that Lu Qi understood why Redania's soldiers temporarily became the island's garrison.
There was only one reason. One of the female sorceresses who presided over the meeting was Philippa Erhart, who was highly respected in the northern warlock group and also served as an advisor to King Wizmir II of Redania!
When talking about the sorceress, Keira's tone was obviously full of reverence.
With such details, Lu Qi couldn't help remembering the name of the sorceress in his heart...
Chapter 5 and Seven: Luxurious Banquet, Finally Seeing the White Wolf
Under the illumination of the magic street lamp beside the stairs, the two people dressed up, while enjoying the faint fruity and floral fragrance in the air, walked forward on the road made of cobblestones.
Along the way, Keira met many fellow warlocks who also came to the banquet and wore various costumes, nodding their heads from time to time, or chatting a few words.
Of course, Lu Qi's strange face also attracted a lot of attention.
However, the inability to feel any magical fluctuations on its body made most people lose interest in continuing to explore.
A man appeared next to the coquettish and beautiful female sorceress, which is nothing more than normal...
Soon, they arrived at Arethusa Palace following the colorful queue.
Although Lu Qi came to this magical world with the background of the Middle Ages, it has been several months.However, the majestic palace in front of him still surprised him from modern times.
The central hall of the palace is like a T-shape.
The ceiling was so high that it was difficult to discern the details of the vault paintings, especially the naked men and women.
Every window is filled with stained glass, which looks expensive.But standing anywhere in the hall, you can clearly feel the breeze blowing on your face.
Lu Qi was a little surprised at those candles that would not go out, but after a closer look, he discovered the mystery.
It turned out that these candelabrums were all magical, and maybe even just phantoms. Compared with ordinary candles, they provided brighter lighting, and that was enough.
When Lu Qi accompanied Kaila into the hall, many people had come earlier than them.
Looking around, Keira pursed her lips and murmured in annoyance:
"Look? We came too early..."
"Huh? What do you mean? There are still many people who haven't come?"
"That's right, you don't think? Warlocks in the entire northern countries? There are only so few people?"
"Maybe, I'm not a warlock? I don't know..."
In the entire hall, there were no tables at all.
Sweeping his sight? He saw rows of long tables? Leaning against the wall, under the tapestry on the hall wall.
Lu Qi, who wanted to eat something to fill his stomach with exquisite dishes placed on an even more exquisite tablecloth? After approaching, he realized that there were more decorations on the table than food.
"Is this the food of the warlock banquet? It's not as rich as I imagined..."
Hearing Lu Qi talking to himself, Kaila, who had been holding Lu Qi's arm, raised her elbow and poked Lu Qi's waist, emphasizing:
"We're here to attend the banquet, not to enjoy the food!"
"What's next? What are we going to do? Dance? Or eat and drink? Forgive me for attending your warlock's banquet for the first time."
"Turn around the hall a few times, say hello to others? A few compliments, chat..."
"Oh? It's not too difficult."
"Of course, someone will try to probe your heart with magic. But don't worry? I'll keep them all out."
Just finished speaking? Kaila took out a diamond-shaped crystal plate engraved with ancient words from somewhere? Handed it to Lu Qi:
"This is a magic talisman I personally made. As long as you wear it, it can protect you from illusions and mind-reading detection."
Lu Qi was taken aback by Keira's kindness, and he couldn't help turning his head to meet the sorcerer's tender eyes.
After looking at each other for a while, Lu Qi smiled suddenly, and said in a gentle tone that he had never had before:
"Thank you, Kayla."
After sincere thanks, he took the talisman and put it in the inner pocket of his jacket near his heart.
Lu Qi's words and deeds made Kaila's mouth curl up, and Lu Qi's arm tightened:
"Let's go, I'll introduce you to some of my warlock friends..."
. . .
After studying magic, every warlock almost has a long life.
This is doomed, they have enough time and opportunity to know each other, and slowly become friends, or enemies.
And Keira has many friends, most of whom are sorceresses.
According to Lu Qi's own observation, many female warlocks have found a decent male companion for themselves.
Among them, there are princes and nobles, as well as rural commoners.Perhaps there is only one thing these male partners have in common, and that is their outstanding appearance.
In the eyes of sorceresses, only things related to beauty can be worthy of them
The male warlocks, on the other hand, were basically alone, trying to maintain a haughty and majestic appearance.
According to Keira, when warlocks use magic to change their appearance, male warlocks tend to look older.Because that will make them look more majestic and intelligent.
The sorceresses, on the other hand, prefer young and beautiful faces.
After all, everyone has the love of beauty.
Under Keira's introduction, Lu Qi, like a country boy who strayed into the Grand View Garden, had a brief exchange with the proud warlocks in a clumsy manner.
Among them, some are friendly, some are dismissive, and some don't care much.
Of course, he also met Philippa Earhart, the sorcerer advisor to King Redania whom the sorceresses of the northern countries respected very much.
The male companion who accompanied her was a tall, burly and even obese bald man.
Although it looks stupid and dull, it has nothing to do with spies.However, this fat giant is actually the spy of the notorious Redanian kingdom, Sigismund Dijkstra!
It is rumored that his spies are almost all over the entire continent, and anything that happens in or around the Kingdom of Redania cannot escape his eyes and ears.
However, this is not Redania, but Thaned Island controlled by warlocks...
Thinking of this, Lu Qi heard the calm female sorceress say:
"Kayla, won't you introduce me to the gentleman next to me?"
"Philippa, this is my friend, Alex. He is a very good ranger."
"Well, hello, Alex..."
He had discovered early on that all sorceresses loved the hand-kiss.
Perhaps, for vain sorceresses, this will allow them to enjoy the same treatment as princesses.
Lu Qi immediately bowed and kissed the back of the other's raised hand.
After living in this world for several months, although Lu Qi's heart and soul are still a modern person.However, his superficial behavior and manners are very well integrated into this era of etiquette.
"It's an honor to meet you, Ms. Erhart."
The fat man standing next to Philippa kissed the back of Keira's hand.
"It is a pleasure to see you, my lord."
"Nice to meet you, too, Kayla."
Just chatting with the two big shots, Philippa seemed to notice something, and suddenly said:
"Yennefer is here, with her witcher..."
Hearing this, Lu Qi's heart skipped a beat, he suppressed the excitement in his heart for an instant, and turned around slowly.
