Chapter 036 Extravagant dinner party

◇

"Lord Saint Clavis, the guardian of darkness, and Saint Jules, the guardian of light, led the fleet of the Royal Dispatch Army from the most mysterious holy place on the main star in the center of the mother galaxy to our location At the outermost edge of the parent galaxy, the star of six rainbow lights at the outer corner of the belt, is doing its best to prevent and save possible tragedies. This kindness, the highest council of our six rainbow stars, will always be engraved in our hearts and dare not be forgotten."

Balk.Litton, the current speaker of the Supreme Council of the Six Rainbow Stars, when he led the crowd to meet the two patron saints and the accompanying fleet, he pretended to say this lengthy speech to the two patron saints, but it was not too much. Indeed.

It is not true to say this, because Jules is actually the only one who leads the fleet.As for Cleves, he stayed aloof and watched from the beginning to the end.Although the Star of Six Rainbow Light is at the border, it is still within the scope of the parent galaxy after all. This voyage, based on the perception of the crew on the ship, is only one night.

"The only thing I did during this trip was to lie in the dormitory and have a good sleep. I didn't do anything else. It was this man who led the fleet all the way here." Klevis Lazily pointing at Jules next to him, "Also, the nine patron saints of His Majesty are headed by Guang. If you want to call you, you have to call him first... I don't like being called out first."

"Yes, yes. Uh...then," Balke's embarrassed expression lasted for a few seconds after being sneered by Clevis, and then he returned to normal, and quickly changed the subject, "Of course, hurry up The hospitality to the Star of Six Rainbow Lights is exactly the same... The Supreme Council prepared a grand welcome ceremony for the two adults in the Shengen Square, followed by a dinner party held in the Temple of Star Diamond, and then, A grand outdoor dance party with thousands of people..."

Listening to Balke's long itinerary, Clevis just looked away lazily, but Jules stared at Balke for a minute, until Balke stopped talking, he sharply Finally, his eyes narrowed a little, and he moved away from Balck's fat body wrapped in a formal and luxurious custom-made dress.

"Please send someone to assist my deputy Elliott, arrange the follow-up landing and supply of Wang Li's dispatched army, and prepare a simple dinner for the personnel of the Holy Land. Please omit unnecessary ceremonies and dances. Next, I will listen to The latest report on the situation of the Self-Defense Forces, please arrange for me an officer of the Self-Defense Forces who can give me a briefing in the shortest possible time."

"Uh, yes..." Balck hesitated and mumbled for a while before he could say a complete sentence.He looked fat and stupid, extravagant and ostentatious... that was the first impression Jules had.

But he also faintly felt that this impression was not reliable.

"Any questions?"

Apden took a small step forward, and stood beside his father to answer for him, "No. Please leave it to me to arrange the landing and supply of other troops of the Wang Li Dispatch Army. I am Apden Litton , is the eldest son of the Speaker." Although Apden was obese, he still took half a step forward nimbly, looking at Elliott who was following Jules, "I am honored to assist you in your work, Elliott Master Liote."

Another son of Balk, Donald, also interjected, "Leave the other matters to me, Donald Litton. A simple dinner can be prepared within 10 minutes. Ceremonies and dances that are not what you expected It will be canceled immediately, and we will divert relevant resources to other uses so as not to be wasted. As for the latest battle report, perhaps you would like to have a meal and listen to the briefing at the same time..."

"No." Klevis, who had already paced aside on his own, suddenly turned around and said, "I don't talk about business after dinner."

That was Cleves's insistence, so Jules had no choice but to give in, "...Yes, not talking about business during meal time is harmful to health."

"Then," Balk said, regaining the speaker's demeanor and social smile.Litton stepped forward to silence the guests again, stretched out his hands gracefully, and invited the two patron saints to move towards the direction of the large welcome car, "Please, my lords."

While Jules was dealing with the Litton family, father and son, he couldn't help but glance at Kravis.Klevis, who was supposed to be walking by his side, walked away for some reason, and they were quite far away, separated by at least twenty or thirty servants, guards, or random people whose origins he couldn't figure out at all. wait.

Among those people, the most glaring one was a young strange woman who was walking beside Klevis, raised her head and talked with him, with a focused and gentle expression... Klevis looked at her with a calm and stable expression, which was simply admirable. Be nice and kind.

The last time Clewis came to investigate alone, he met 'someone' who seemed to like him.Not only that, Klevis doesn't seem to reject it, and even feels curious...

Just arrived on this planet, Jules was upset.

◇

When it was time to serve the sixth course, Jules was about to ask them if they had made a mistake in the serving size of this set of dinners, when the correspondent from Wang Li's dispatched army came over to interrupt their strange dinner with a hand-held communication device. .Jules took the communicator, got up and walked to the dark balcony outside the dining room to answer.Just had a brief exchange with Luwa on the other end of the communicator, and saw Klevis, who has always been too lazy to do so, come forward.

"Is there nothing wrong with the Holy Land?"

"……No."

Clavis stood in front of Jules, "It's fine if you don't." He stood very close.

"You... need to find Luwa for something?"

"No." Klevis took another step forward, he had already heard the person in front of him, and glanced at the communication device in his hand, "Aren't you going to cut off the call?"

"Ah... yes." Jules had just cut off the call, and when his hands warmed up, Clewis had already held his left hand.He immediately became nervous, looked left and right, and confirmed that the view from the bright dining room to the dark balcony was completely covered by Clevis' tall body, and then he felt relieved, "...Lu, Luwa just greeted us. "

"Yeah." Clewis responded noncommittally, gently stroking the back of Jules' hand, "There are a lot of people here."

Jules couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "Since you know there are many people, then..." He exerted a little force to withdraw his left hand, but Cleves held it tightly, "Don't do this. Two big people The man is pulling and pulling, what does it look like?"

"Struggle too hard, it will be obvious to others." Hearing this sentence, Jules couldn't help being slightly startled, and an unnatural blush appeared on his cheeks.Clavis smiled slightly, "blush," he lowered his voice further, "looks so tempting."

"Don't, don't say such things. If people find out, don't think about the consequences..."

Klevis also knew what he said was true, "...Okay." Reluctantly let go.

"You look aggrieved, and it's not like I want you to do something embarrassing." Jules changed his posture and pressed Clevis's shoulder in a posture that didn't matter for others to see, and changed the subject, "For the inside Battle, how do you feel?"

"...a weird, mismatched scene."

The blond-haired patron saint raised his eyebrows slightly, "The semi-circular mark behind your seat... was originally a small temporary flower bed, and there are still traces of glue and wire beside it... In my opinion, if it wasn't for Ribbons are brocades."

Cleves shook his head, "You want them to keep everything simple."

"By the way, just now Donald also said that he would go to the Holy Grace Hall to eat and rest. It was only later that he made a temporary decision to eat in the Star Diamond Temple according to the original arrangement."

"...Well, this set of scenes was originally prepared by them."

"If you decide to cancel the dinner party that has already been prepared, it may be more wasteful. In such a short period of time, Donald can be considered capable of quickly sending people to remove those redundant decorations. The problem is..." Zhu Lie Si frowned tightly, and looked into the brightly lit spacious dining room, "This planet is obviously at war, and supplies should also be very tight..."

"This planet has only been fighting for about ten days, so it may not be that supplies are running short so soon..."

"Before the war, they had already experienced a merciless meteorite catastrophe. Agriculture, mining, forestry, fishery and animal husbandry, industry and road transportation were all severely damaged... The disaster on this planet is very serious, and it is difficult to recover in the short term. Difficulty."

Seeing that Jules' expression became more and more depressed, Klevis also knew that Jules was being tormented by his arrogant personality that did not allow himself to make any mistakes, so he patted Jules's hand that was holding his shoulder with his backhand , softly persuaded him, "Thinking about these things now does not do any good...it is better to think about the things in front of you."

"for example?"

Klevis laughed, pointing to the brightly lit dining room, the waiter's hands were filled with sumptuous dishes, "For example... persuade them to save money from now on?"

Jules obviously didn't appreciate his joke, and blinked his eyes, "I always feel that the ostentation inside has nothing to do with Balk Lytton's extravagance, and it's not just about flattering the patron saint of the Holy Land." Simple……"

The two patron saints exchanged only a few words, and when they returned to the dining room, there were four more dishes on the table.Jules, who never had a big appetite, was almost nauseated, while Clavis felt that he was too lazy to deal with the pile of dishes...the dishes looked extremely delicate and boring.

Under Jules' insistence, most of the dishes were removed intact and brought to the tables of other officers of the Wang Li Dispatched Army and the Self-Defense Force while they were still hot.

"It looks weird." When one of the dishes passed in front of him, he couldn't help wondering, "What is that?"

"This is called 'Queen of the Holy Shepherd's Red Goat's Hoof', in memory of Her Majesty the Queen who is called the Holy Shepherd... She always appears in front of the world with the image of leading a little red sheep. It is piled up in the shape of a red hoof Those flower-shaped meat strips are indeed real sheep's trotters." Jules patiently explained to him, "It is a very troublesome traditional dish. Only the middle part of the sheep's tendon is taken, and it is simmered for nine hours on a low heat until it is old and tough. The tendons were simmered until they melted in your mouth, then the fresh feta cheese was drizzled on top and cooled quickly. The final texture was crunchy...it tasted ok.”

"If it's just 'okay'... why bother?"

"Because there are quite a few chefs who can cook this kind of dish... When the noble family of the main star entertains important guests, they sometimes use this dish in order to show their family's noble traditions and financial resources." Jules frowned and thought for a moment , then lowered his voice and whispered to Kravis, "Perhaps the Supreme Council was influenced by Omelia's slander, so it deliberately entertained us with such a luxurious and high standard."

"Think that our Patron Saints are all extravagant, self-seeking people?"

Jules couldn't help raising his face, "It's not good to spread such words..."

"The public opinion on this planet is really weird." Kravis narrowed his slender phoenix eyes, making his eyes look deeper.

Jules was a little unhappy.After he and Kravis came to this planet, the two of them traveled together all the time, and Kravis hardly talked to anyone on this planet...except for the journey from the airport to the welcome car, He talked to a young strange woman for a while.

"what happened?"

"Do you have acquaintances on this planet?"

"Of course, I've been here once." Klevis leaned closer to Jules' ear and asked in a low voice, "Are you jealous?"

Jules was furious, "I wouldn't do such a boring thing!"

"Shhh... the whole planet is looking at you," Klevis poked his sore foot without changing his face, "Your noble and elegant patron saint of light, you seem to have lost your composure."

"Nonsense." Jules cursed in a low voice, turning shame and anger into appetite, picked up a fork and ate several mouthfuls.
