At noon on the banquet, standing outside the castle, looking at Akadila's figure in the distance, a solemn look flashed in Athir's eyes.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that beneath the other person's cheerful smile, there seemed to be a hint of inharmonious coldness.
"Lord Arcadilla actually spoke to you in person!" Elhua's familiar voice sounded again, with obvious envy.
Elhua rode a big black horse and wore a serious sleeve suit, which made him quite conspicuous in the surroundings.
As the child of Count Boria, Arcadilla also smiled at him when he passed by here just now, but his treatment was obviously much worse than that of Athir.
Glancing sideways at Elhua beside him, Athir felt speechless.
In his memory, he knew that Elhua, the second son of the Earl, usually admired the Knight of Arcadilla the most, but he did not expect it to reach this point. He was just like those star-chasers in Athir's previous life.
But if you think about it carefully, this also indirectly illustrates Akadila's strong personal charm and influence.
As the strongest knight in the North, Arcadilla was born into a ruined noble family. He showed a strong knight talent since he was a child. He has a very loud reputation in the North and is an idol in the eyes of many young nobles.
Count Bolia is the lord of Arcadilla, and now even his own children have become admirers of the other party, which shows his influence.
Thinking of this, Atier shook his head secretly in his heart.
Athir didn't know much about the affairs of the upper class in the North, either in the past or now.
However, from current observations, both Count Borea and Arcadilla have strong personalities and may not be very close to each other.
In the distance, as Knight Arcadilla led his men back to the castle, Athir followed the overly excited Elhua and slowly walked into the castle.
At night, Count Bolia held a grand banquet to celebrate the victorious return of the Knight of Arcadilla.
Many nobles of all sizes and some powerful warriors who had performed outstandingly during this period were present, including Athir, Fular and others.
As the youngest knight in the history of the North and the only heir to a wealthy barony, Athir undoubtedly received great attention at this banquet.
He himself has a very good appearance. As a half-elf, he inherited all the advantages of both parents. He is tall and handsome. In terms of appearance, he is even better than the cheerful and handsome Arcadilla. Naturally, he is welcomed by many people.
Many minor nobles had heard of Athir's reputation, and this time they brought unmarried women from their own families to introduce them to him, apparently intending to form an alliance with him.
In response, Athir maintained a gentle expression on his face. Although he looked easy to talk to, he sat directly next to Knight Flar, thus getting rid of the harassment of the girls.
As a close confidant of Count Boria, Knight Flar is notorious in the North. Over the years, he has wiped out countless enemies, including bandits and orcs, as well as many nobles who wanted to rebel against Count Boria. He has a great deterrent effect on ordinary nobles.
Athir sat next to the middle-aged knight, and the noble girls who had been pestering him suddenly almost disappeared, and they didn't even dare to get close to him, which made him feel relaxed but also a little speechless in his heart.
Not far from him, Elhua was also at the banquet.
As the second son of Count Bolia, Elhua's elder brother is said to have gone to a faraway country in his early years and will never come back unless something unexpected happens.
In this case, Elhua, the second son, is likely to inherit everything from Count Boria in the future and become the de facto ruler of the North. He will be much more popular than Athir, an ordinary knight.
He was not like Athir, who never refused any young girls or young women who came to his door. In just a short while, he had danced with seven or eight girls and it seemed that he quite liked this atmosphere.
Looking at him like this, Athir shook his head helplessly, then shifted his gaze to the center front.
That was the center of the banquet. No matter how dazzling Athir and Elhua were, they were just foils compared to the others.
There, Arcadilla and Count Borea were drinking, laughing and chatting about their own interesting stories, and it seemed that they were getting along very happily.
Next to Count Polya, there was a middle-aged knight with thick hair. He seemed not good at speaking, but just stayed quietly beside Count Polya, looking quite intimate.
"Which lord is that?"
After taking a deep look at the man in the distance, Athir casually asked Knight Fular who was sitting next to him.
"That's Caddis, the captain of Lord Boria's guards."
After taking a look at the people in the distance, Fular said to Athir.
Listening to Fular's words, Athir nodded thoughtfully, and then asked in a low voice: "How strong is this Lord Kadis?"
"He's okay among knight apprentices, but he can't be compared with a real knight."
Fular shook his head. "Kadis is an excellent fighter. He had already reached the standard for promotion to knight when he was young, but he has never been promoted successfully since then. Now he has almost no hope."
"He is very loyal to Lord Boria and was seriously injured in battle several times. So although he was not promoted to knight, he was promoted to captain of the guard by Lord Boria."
To be promoted to a knight requires strong physical fitness and vitality. Generally speaking, if an ordinary human being has not been successfully promoted after the age of thirty, the possibility of natural promotion will become smaller and smaller.
Boria in the distance looked to be at least forty years old. Under normal circumstances, he would probably never be able to break through the knight level in his lifetime.
On the side, listening to Fular's explanation, Athir nodded, but a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes.
In my mind, the sound of the chip machinery rang out.
"Name: Kadis. Strength: 5.1. Agility: 5. Constitution: 5.2."
This is not the physical fitness of a so-called knight's apprentice, it is clear that he has reached the pinnacle of knighthood and barely reached the standard of a grand knight.
In the entire North, apart from Count Arcadilla and Boria, there is probably no other such powerful warrior.
"There's something wrong with this Kadiz."
As he quietly looked at Kadis, who was silent and taciturn in the distance, this thought flashed through Athir's mind.
In this world, the status of a great knight is so high that it is hard for ordinary people to imagine. No matter which country he is in, he can obtain a noble title and corresponding territory.
Such a powerful warrior actually disguised himself as a knight's apprentice and even became the captain of the guard of the ruler of the North. There must be a reason for this.
