I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

The sun was about to set, and Bennett put away his senses and went to the living room to see his father.

Kent looked at his son's glowing eyes. He knew almost nothing about mages, but everyone knew what glowing eyes meant. He could only express his feelings with a big hug.

"I'm proud of you, my child."

Bennett's eyes moistened slightly.

"Thank you, father."

"Bennett, you have to stay at home alone for the next few days. Your mother and I are going out to buy food that is in short supply this year. You have to take good care of yourself."

"Don't worry about me, father. The nurse will take care of me."

"I'll bring you a present when I come back."

Kent went to instruct the nanny again and left with his luggage.

Bennett took a look at the sky, told the nanny not to prepare dinner, changed his clothes and went out.

Arriving in front of the Mage Tower, the guards avoided the pair of glowing eyes, lowered their heads and pushed open the door of the tower. Bennett was not surprised by their reaction. People along the way avoided his eyes. After all, the profession of mage did have a lot of criminal record.

Bennett stood in front of the door of the room. His identity was completely different when he came here. Bennett felt his heart calm and raised his hand to knock on the door.

"come in."

Mervyn looked at Bennett who came in, staring at the pair of slightly glowing eyes. After he was distracted, he sighed with a complicated expression and said, "I didn't expect you to be so fast. Your soul talent is the strongest I have ever seen. You are also very brave. You completed the construction of the magic core by yourself."

“Isn’t this a good thing?”

"This is a good thing for your future achievements, but not necessarily for you now. The infection of magic will force people to be rational or crazy, and their personal emotions will become less and less. You are too young. At this age, it is easy for you to go astray. I built the magic core at the age of 18, which is very young in the world of mages."

Bennett examines his own heart, and the values ​​shaped by his previous life are still very clear: "I won't, my life is very happy, and I am no longer a child."

"You are 10 years old, but you are not a child. Forget it, let's go. The lord is waiting for us."

Mervyn put on a Gothic trench coat with a gorgeous hem and handed one to Bennett.

"You should dress more gorgeously when attending noble banquets. Read more philosophy books in your daily life. This can help you delay the loss of your emotions."

Bennett put on new clothes and looked at the gorgeous gold patterns on his arms. He couldn't help but sigh at the changes that identity brings to people. He followed Mervyn down the Mage Tower. The carriage had stopped in front of the door of the Mage Tower. He got on the carriage and the driver drove the carriage to the lord's manor.

The servant of the manor led Mervyn and Bennett out of the carriage and pushed open the door engraved with the giant wolf emblem. The servant took the two through the corridor and into the living room, which was covered with brown carpets of the castle. The ivory white walls were hung with various exquisite oil paintings, the candlesticks were in golden bouquet patterns, the corners were decorated with white shell patterns, the pillars were carved with golden garlands, and the chandeliers on the ceiling were made of red glass in the shape of roses. There were exquisite vases and artistic sculptures everywhere, which were slender, charming, gorgeous, exquisite, and complicated.

Looking at this luxurious and flashy Rococo decoration, Bennett was particularly grateful to his teacher for giving him the gorgeous Gothic trench coat, otherwise he would not dare to sit on this leather sofa sewn with gold thread.

How can the lord have so much money to do this? The territory has only been developed for more than 20 years. His father is a duke? Oh, that's fine, NB.

As soon as the lord appeared, he noticed Bennett's eyes. The features of a wizard were very obvious. He narrowed his eyes slightly, loosened his tight collar, and said, "Little Bennett is already a wizard. It's a pity that the territory has lost a brave and loyal knight."

Bennett explained: "My sworn loyalty to the Lord will not be dissipated by a change of status."

The lord turned his gaze to Mervyn and said, "Welcome, Master Mervyn, and welcome, Master Bennett. One territory, two mages. Today is a day worth celebrating."

"Thank you for your invitation. The glory of the giant wolf will live forever."

At this time, the lord's wife, eldest son, and daughter also greeted the master and his apprentice. The servants came forward and led everyone to the dining room, pulling out chairs and motioning everyone to sit down.

Everyone's seats had been arranged in advance. The main seat at the round table was the lord, the first on the right was the wizard, followed by Bennett, the lord's wife on the left, followed by the lord's eldest son, and the little girl sat opposite the lord, which was the last seat.

Bennett's scalp was already tingling before he even sat down. In front of each seat were rows of long and short tableware and large and small goblets. The middle plates were divided into three layers, with a bread plate on the upper left and dessert spoons and forks right above.

The bread in the middle of the table was not placed on a plate, but directly on the table. This is a French restaurant style. In my previous life, I ate steak with chopsticks, so this is simply not how I would use it.

It's over. Before eating, it's a mask of pain, and when eating, it's Landry's torture.

Bennett turned his gaze towards his teacher and saw a smile that was almost reaching his ears. It was obvious that he had expected that Bennett was ignorant and was waiting to see his little apprentice make a fool of himself.

"Are there any special dishes today?" Mervyn started the conversation.

"I have specially hired a chef to prepare the dragon meat, and I am sure you will be satisfied," the lord replied.

"Cherry brandy from the South is a rare aperitif. You must try it," said the Lord's wife.

"The red wine from the King's Estate goes perfectly with dragon meat." Eldest son.

"Mom also prepared new desserts." said all 10-year-old girls.

Bennett: “…”

It was apparently customary to compliment the host before a meal, but unfortunately this had nothing to do with Bennett, who was thinking about the use of this group of tableware.

Silence is the Cambridge tonight. People’s joys are not shared with each other. The world isolates me. No matter how much I am ridiculed by the world, I only look at the plate in front of me.

The execution began before the meal even started, but fortunately everyone was a respectable person and would not force others to be respectable.

The servants beside them poured wine for everyone one by one. Everyone raised their glasses, took a small sip, and Bennett imitated him.

The servants took away the top layer of plates and put down the plates with the dishes, appetizers, foie gras.

Which pair of tableware should I use? Bennett quietly stared at the little girl next to him. The outermost pair of tableware, OK, after eating, he also followed this person and placed the tableware horizontally on the plate, waiting for the servant to take it away.

With stiff movements and shifty eyes, everyone has already noticed this cute little monkey in human clothing, but it's a pity that someone still feels good about himself.

The second dish was soup. The little girl lowered her head and picked up the outermost soup spoon. She understood and continued to learn.

The third dish was shrimp. It was over. Muggle, use knife and fork to peel the shrimp and see how the little girl does it. Bennett kept looking at the little girl, and the little girl's face turned red, but she still didn't learn how to do it.

Bennett had already realized that something was wrong with him, but his mind was blank at the moment. He saw a bowl of lemonade next to him and drank it without thinking.

The wizard who had been waiting to see the joke finally couldn't help himself and laughed out loud. With someone taking the lead, the others couldn't hold back any more. The servants, the lord's son, the little girl, the lord's wife, and finally the lord, all laughed. Bennett looked depressed and turned to look at the little girl, who blushed and put her hands into the bowl to wash them.

You are a devil.

The soles of Bennett's boots were very thick, and he couldn't even find a three-bedroom apartment. His face flushed and he was at a loss as to what to do.

After the laughter, the lord ordered the servant behind Bennett to teach him. Mervyn was still winking at Bennett, but unfortunately he no longer cared. Some people may still be alive physically, but their souls are dead.

The atmosphere of the meal was very cheerful. The jelly after the shrimp was smooth and sweet, the stewed dragon meat with red wine was very fragrant, the roasted dragon meat with sparkling wine was also a perfect match, the vegetable salad rolls and the dessert black tea after the meal were simply perfect. The meal lasted for three hours and both the host and the guests were happy.

Of course, the atmosphere did not infect Bennett, who was still being fed at the age of 10, although he said "It smells so good" at the end.
