Chapter 102 Reception

The palm trees outside the balcony rustled in the evening breeze, and the wide platform made of marble was covered with velvet blankets. Someone stepped on them barefoot, and they were just wearing a casual robe, with their chests open, and the light red wine churned in the cup, but the wine glass did not sway at all. The wall of the cup was printed with a man's face and a faint blue light emitting in his eyes.

"Jazz, Miss Violet hopes we can fund her to rebuild her team, and in return, she will… in the future..."

In the room behind the man, an old man wearing housekeeper's clothing was reporting on the recent situation.

"In the future? I have heard too much of this kind of promise and it makes no sense. You tell her that if you want me to help, there is only one way, that is, she agrees to engage in engagement with me. As long as I become my wife, I will of course give my efforts to help her."

He casually ordered that the man's eyes never left the wine glass in his hand. To be precise, it was the strangely shaped dark blue ring on the index finger of his right hand. Occasionally, he looked at the liquid in the cup and changed according to his own wishes. He looked satisfied on his face and said in a deep voice.

"I always thought that it would take a lot of time to practice or drink those weird potions to reach this level. I didn't expect that it would take just a small ring to do it. It's such a magical power."

The butler did not stay in the house. After receiving the reply, he turned around and prepared to leave. Instead, he was standing there, a few steps away from the Earl of Alterland. A salty and wet sea breeze suddenly blew in the room. The wet and sticky feeling made the butler who had just walked to the door looked back involuntarily, and then quickly withdrew his gaze. He did not want to pay too much attention to the strange person.

"This is just a copy, my Lord Jazz, are you satisfied with this low-level energy control?"

Something seemed to be squirming under the dark hood, his voice was hoarse and broken,

"What is stored in the scorching box is the real gift of the sea god. With it, you can instantly possess the power of the sea god!"

"Help me get the searing box, I can give you whatever you want!"

Put the wine glass on the edge of the balcony, and when the thoughts turn, the wine condenses into a waterline and flows into the mouth. The count closed his eyes intoxicatedly, raised his head, and clenched his hands into fists.

The wine was not very delicious. He enjoyed an unparalleled sense of power and control, which made him intoxicated more than any fine wine!

Not enough, just like that guy said, he needs more power...

At this moment, the door was opened again, and someone came in with weapons around his waist.

The blonde hair was spread over his shoulders, and his strong and well-proportioned body was moving, and the muscles were clearly divided. The man glanced at the situation in the room and showed unconcealed disgust at the strange figure standing in the hall. He raised his hand to cover his nose and whispered a few steps forward: "Just, the new president of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce has arrived."

"Frans finally arrived, bring a few people with you. You have to help me get the treasure that belongs to me!"

The jazz looked into the manor door, where two people had just entered, so he couldn't wait to shout.

......

"It's just here, it's too luxurious."

At the door of the manor, Zhu Jue looked at the wide manor in front of him. He thought that the Earl of Alterland's cocktail party should be on the second or third floor hall of a house. When he arrived at the invitation, he realized that this place was actually a small manor castle.

"Yes, the Earl of Ultraland is the highest-ranking nobleman on the Harbour of Dilas, so we must ensure as much as possible that we do not conflict with him, otherwise the business of the Chamber of Commerce will be greatly impacted."

As I said before, opposing the nobles in a dream is undoubtedly a discomfort for myself, let alone such a count-level nobleman.

"Whether there will be a conflict depends on him. In fact, he has taken action, isn't it? Sending a garrison to search at home is not a friendly signal."

He lowered his head and stretched his clothes. Zhu Jue walked over the door, walked a few steps inside and then suddenly paused. He took a step back to Lisana's side, leaned closer and asked in a low voice,

"If I accidentally kill that guy, will I be suspected of the kind that no one knows...?"

"ah?"

Lisana really doesn't know how to answer Zhu Jue's question.

Kill an earl by accident.

How careless do you have to be?

"Sir, are you the president of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce?"

Before Lisanna could say something, someone from the housekeeper's clothing came to ask.

"Yes, I am the new president of Shuojin Chamber of Commerce. Is there anything wrong?"

"The Earl of Ultraland hopes to meet you before the party begins, please come with me."

Without any intention of asking for advice, the housekeeper turned around and led the way after saying that, as if he had determined that Zhu Jue dared not disobey the count's intention.

It is precisely because of this that he did not see the light flashing in his eyes when Zhu Jue picked off a green plant leaf behind him.

"Are you sure you have nothing to offend this count until today?"

Tear the leaves open along the veins, Zhu Jue deliberately slowed down and walked with Lisanna.

The other party's attitude was clearly about causing trouble. Zhu Jue was not sure about the situation here, so he could only ask Lisanna.

"Our business does not conflict with the Earl of Ultraland. Maybe it's because he wants to acquire us... President, the situation is not right. As the Earl of Ultraland, if it's the possibility I just mentioned, he can send an agent. There is no need to show off this attitude. It should be something else."

Lisana conceived a possibility herself, and after thinking about it, she denied it herself.

This time Zhu Jue did not answer Lisanna's words, kept silent, and followed the butler all the way to the depths of the manor.

On the way, I happened to pass by the cocktail party. It was not in the house, but on the open-air lawn. The tables and chairs were already arranged, and there were many guests coming and going. They each took the items on the dining table and chatted in groups of three or five.

"Who is that gentleman? It seems to be a new face."

The girl sitting on the exquisite bench looked at the people passing by not far away, and her already delicate and fair face looked pale at this moment.

"It should be a person from Dilas Harbour. You have just arrived here, so naturally I don't know you."

The old man beside the girl bowed and said softly.

"Grandpa Moro, I have seen many big names in Dilas Harbor these days, but I can be sure that I have never seen him... Even at the cocktail party, Mr. Butler can be led by himself. Looking at this direction, it is obviously to meet the Jazz. Such a person is not simple."

Taking a sip of the fruit wine, the girl looked at Zhu Jue and Lisanna who were leaving, with some expectation emerging in her eyes.
