Chapter 55: The Baron's Banquet

  Dean still wore the somewhat tattered uniform of the Central Knights as he appeared at Baron Teal's dinner party - walking into the carefully decorated baronial mansion, as the main guest invited, Dean was naturally the protagonist of tonight's banquet; so, when Dean jumped off his warhorse, he was surrounded by gaze after gaze.

  Undoubtedly, all those present who were qualified to attend the Baron's dinner party wanted to see what kind of person the Baron was entertaining.

  However, they were clearly disappointed ——

  "You look okay, but what's with those clothes? A tattered military uniform?"

  "I thought it was a big shot from the Jade Capital, but it turned out to be just a country bumpkin!"

  "Even a country bumpkin has at least one or two decent clothes on his body, but he... tsk tsk!"

  ……

  Sarcastic and mocking words have been incessantly emerging since Dean walked into this grand hall, just like a swarm of flies buzzing restlessly around your ears.

  And among them, Dean saw an unusually active acquaintance: Weeble Til.

  Just a glance, Dean withdrew his gaze - what the other person was doing, even thinking about it with toes could understand, no need to look again.

  However, Dean didn't seem to care, but Hack on the side couldn't take it anymore.

  The hotel owner who came with Dean and knew the whole story furrowed his brow, wanting to rush up and stop that unscrupulous nonsense, but before he could move, he was pulled back by Dean.

  "That guy is talking nonsense, we need to go and clarify things!"

  Hake said with some exasperation.

  "You can only explain to those who want you to explain, but he... will just turn your explanation into another round of nonsense and ultimately trap you in his layered linguistic trap - although I highly doubt his IQ, which allows him to come up with such rhetoric, one thing is certain: he was well-prepared!"

  Dean said slowly and calmly.

  As for what Weipor Teir had in mind, Dean was all too clear - the other party obviously hadn't given up yet; at this moment, he was looking for outside help, hoping to rely on these forces to turn the tide; however, by doing so, the other party once again showed his shallowness.

  Perhaps this distant relative and stepson of Baron Tyrell never understood that there was only one true master of Highgarden, and it was not him.

  What about other people?

  Baron Teir invited them not because they had so much to say, but simply because they were relatives of Baron Teir.

  Of course, there are also one or two with good potential.

  Dean watched as Veepor spoke enthusiastically to a group of young people in the distance, occasionally pointing and gesturing towards him, after which the faces of those young people began to reveal angry expressions.

  Dean sneered silently in his heart several times.

  Within the territory of Tiel, there were only about four or five people who truly mattered to him. Among them, two had been killed by his own hands. As for the remaining few, including Lord Tiel and Advisor Icos, Dein was very confident that he could win them over.

  What about the Baron's chief guard?

  It is clear that the other party is obedient to Baron Teir.

  To put it simply, no matter how many people Weibo provokes into being his enemies, they are just a mob.

  Of course, if these young people were the sons and daughters of those nobles in the Emerald City, Dean would still be a little wary. But as for the Til family... I'm sorry, apart from the daughter and son of Baron Til, is it possible for others to truly obtain a title? At most, they can only mix with a decent position next to Baron Til.

  However, Dean's silence was apparently misunderstood by some people.

  Weipor. Teir looked at the isolated and helpless Dean, his heart was so happy that he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth; however, the angle of the curl was obviously a bit too big, pulling on the wound that Lord Teir had slapped on his cheek, suddenly, it hurt him to grit his teeth.

  In the midst of pain, Mr. Weibo suddenly thought of that humiliating scene again, and almost involuntarily, he strode towards Dean -

  "Barbarian, what reason could you possibly have for coming here?"

  Weibo leaned in front of Dean and said in a low voice.

  "With the Baron's invitation, what reason would I have not to come?"

  Dean replied without any expression.

  "Even if it were my brother's invitation, you should stay in your muddy pit! "Weipu's words carried a strong tone of provocation,"Come on, the mighty wind from this morning is still vivid in my mind, come again? Is your courage only limited to the military camp? Have you become a coward here?"

  "If I were you, I'd put on a bit more powder so others wouldn't know that you got slapped in the face!"

  Deane curled the corner of his mouth and started to counterattack - retreating was not cowardice, but it was not time to collect the opponent yet. However, the opponent kept coming up with endless provocations, so Deane didn't mind giving the opponent a ruthless blow, making them unforgettable for life.

  As for the palm print on his face?

  Although Veil had applied a thick layer of powder, it was only enough to deceive ordinary people. To Dein, however, it was clear as day.

  "Ahhh!!!!!!"

  With a strange cry, Weipo rushed towards Dean, and as he watched Weipo rush towards him, Dean was stunned - of course, not because of fear, but simply surprise.

  Although the definition of Weibull distribution is already quite clear.

  However, Dean did not expect that the other party would really be so unbearable, and could not tolerate even a slight insult; but then Dean sneered at this, and the other party had been under the ruthless tax officer in Mold for nearly a year in history, which was enough to explain that the other party was not completely a fool.

  However, such tolerance only appears when the other party is considered to be of a higher status than oneself. When encountering someone of a lower status, they become completely intolerant, and even if they suffer just a slight insult, it must be washed away with the other person's blood - this is not simply bullying the weak and fearing the strong, but also contains a hint of sycophancy.

  Isn't it the same with most of the nobles?

  With an idea at the bottom of his heart, Dean slightly dodged to one side, avoiding Weipu's unskilled pounce, and then stretched out a leg.

  Bang!

  Splash...

  In an instant, Weibo fell on the table behind Dean; not only did he knock over the table, but also the plates and dishes on the table were brought to the ground, shattering into pieces.

  "What the hell are you doing?"

  "Do you know what place this is?"

  "Do you want to be expelled from Tyre?"

  ……

  Seeing Weibo fall to the ground, the guests around him first gloated for a while, then immediately turned their attention to Dean and began a barrage of accusations, and what's more, in a loud and shrill tone; as if only by doing so could they show how different they were from others.

  Or... is standing at the highest point of morality?

  Who knows?

  However, it can be seen that these guests are much more excited than before, and some young people even rushed to the front, staring at Dean with a bad face; if it weren't for Hack standing beside Dean, I'm afraid these young people would have swarmed up - courage is often present when there are many people.

  "Stop!"

  Just as the atmosphere in the hall was becoming tense, a loud shout came - the Baron's chief guard walked out, and behind him were Earl Thiel, who had changed into formal attire, and Ikos, still dressed as a scholar.

  "What's going on?"

  Baron's face sank like water and asked - whoever was destroyed by the carefully prepared dinner would not have a good mood; however, when Baron Teal saw Dean not far away, his eyebrows wrinkled involuntarily.

  It's clear that he was also dissatisfied with Dean's attire.

  If it's because of bashfulness in the pouch and can't be dignified, then Baron Teal is forgivable, after all, he often finds himself in such a state.

  However, Dean had previously indicated that he was wealthy and did not lack the capital to support himself decently.

  So what does this appearance mean when it appears here?

  Is he embarrassed?

  Such speculation made Baron Teir's expression increasingly unpleasant.

  "Elder brother, I beg of you to expel this impudent fellow! His attire is an affront to your dignity and the banquet you have prepared!"

  Weiboer. After stumbling and getting up from the ground, he immediately began to complain, while the guests on the side were not lacking in helping him out.

  "That's right, Weibo originally wanted to persuade the other party, but was pushed down by the other party in an instant!"

  "Really! Really!"

  "Not only was the table overturned, but many plates and bowls were also smashed. I just saw a silver cup flattened!"

  ……

  As more and more outrageous words were spoken, the Baron's face grew increasingly darker. However, someone beside him couldn't bear it any longer than he could.

  "Shut up, you bunch of people who only know how to wag their tongues!"

  Hark, the owner of 'Snow Bear's Home', bellowed loudly.
