New Eternal Day

Chapter 4 Mansion Banquet
"It's time to get up, Ruo Si." A voice called to me, young and powerful.I opened my tired eyes and saw that the window was still dark, with the blue light of the street lamp.

There was no one in the room, only the star stone on my right hand flickered and swayed brightly. I thought I heard it wrong and closed my eyes again.

"Get up, Ruosi, there are still a lot of things to prepare for today." I woke up smartly, without any sleepiness:

"Who's there?" No one answered.Glancing out, my God, I'm not crazy because I'm in Achutan, a rotten God-created place.

I stood by the window. The day and night here are no different. The black street lamps outside the window act as illuminators and emit iron-like light, but I can still see the vastness and vastness of Aqiutan.

Although I kept reminding myself in the dark that it was almost noon, it was hard to make people feel refreshed by this thick tone.I changed the clothes in my closet and they fit unexpectedly well.

I put some small things into an inconspicuous cloth bag and tied it around my waist, and walked out the door.Mr. Fei happily said that fortunately, I did not miss lunch. This was the first chance to make friends before the school started. He carefully prepared a lot of delicious dishes. This will be a banquet at the Peyton Mansion.

Seeing the expression on Mr. Fei's face trying to make me a very popular person, I cracked a smile very reluctantly.

I arrived at the lobby 10 minutes to twelve, not because I wanted to join the banquet, but because I was really hungry.

The whole hall was decorated brightly, even a little dazzling.This level of lighting and reflections are extravagant in the dark city of Achutain.

It is said that some orcs have not seen their real appearance before they reach adulthood, which may be related to the poor eyesight of the orcs in their youth.Of course this is not what I said, it was said in "A Brief History of the Orcs" I read last night.

I was thinking a little too far, I was getting hungry, and I was trying to keep myself from falling.

I started to miss Feiman's egg tarts and regretted waking up too late for breakfast.

Suddenly, the bell rang, and eleven children who were talking and laughing poured into the hall. They walked together, and it seemed that some of them were already very familiar with each other.I saw Jumeirah, maybe the seventh or eighth came in, and she was so pretty today.

Jumeirah winked at me and lip-mouthed: Sit together for a while.I returned her a wink, but it was too far away, I don't know if she could receive it.

We were seated at a long table under the arrangement of Mr. Fei, with six people on the left and right.I sat with a boy with very fair skin on the opposite side of the seat closest to the main house. At the time, I thought it was nothing, but after thinking about it, I realized that some things are so subtle.

In fact, I didn't know the names of people other than Jumeirah at that time, and I could only vaguely feel that the order was based on age or status.

But looking around, they are actually children between the ages of twelve and 15 who are about my age.

"Ding Ding Ding" Mr. Fei tapped the wine glass with a silver spoon: It's time, let's invite Lord Norman, the owner of the mansion, to speak.

A middle-aged woman who was not dressed elegantly but very dignified walked to the main house. The six boys sitting on the right pushed out the chairs and stood up to salute. The girls on the left sat on the chairs and looked to their right. Nodding slightly on the shoulders.

Only my eyes widened because I didn't have the habit of salute to my mother.

Fei Man, my legal guardian, turned into Lord Norman, the owner of this labyrinth-like mansion.

Fei Man ignored me but raised his glass and said in a tone that I felt very unfamiliar: "As time flies, the youth remains the same. Thinking of the time when I was sitting on this long table with your parents, it was like yesterday. thing.

Coming to the Peyton Mansion, I hope you can make good use of the resources here and continue to shine on the basis of the energy created by your parents.In a few days, the school of Aqiutan will start. No matter how the years change, even if there is no warm morning and evening, the land of the orcs will always be alive because of you.

Raise a glass, girls and boys.Everyone raised their glasses together as if they had discussed it. I was found out by Fei Man after a beat. She smiled and continued:

"By the way, today is also the 14th birthday of my only daughter Ruosi, let's celebrate her together!"

"feliz!"

Everyone shouted in unison, followed by the sound of glasses colliding with each other.I celebrated my birthday last week, Mom. I took a sip from the glass and took a sip. It turned out to be grape juice.

Fei Man left after delivering his speech, leaving Mr. Fei alone to continue serving us.The children immediately started making noises again, and said something excitedly.

Mr. Fei is really well prepared.There are dishes from south to north, coastal and inland.It's not hard to find that everyone's hometown food is right in front of them, which is so sweet.Jumeirah had a lot of garlic prawns and I preferred the pineapple crepes.

Strangely, the very pale boy sitting across from me didn't eat anything, he only drank a few sips of Calpis, and then sat there holding his arms and waiting for the banquet to end.

I saw his name on the guest card in front of him: NOK, and Nok himself did not notice that I was watching him, instead he kept frowning slightly and watching Jumeirah eat.

I looked back at Jumeirah and probably understood, because Nock is the type of person in life who doesn't eat his elbows on the tablecloth for fear of soiling his smock.

I lowered my head and said to Jumeirah in a low voice, "Meila, should you eat less, the taste of garlic is really too strong." Jumeirah said the last one vaguely.

Suddenly the room went quiet and everyone looked at each other not knowing what was going on.At this time Knock spoke:

"Miss Ruosi, you don't need to speak in a low voice. Everyone in this room has opened their spiritual sense and can hear anything they want to hear."

"Noke, you are really nosy. If Si is a newcomer, do you expect her to open her spiritual eyes and see everything in one day?" A boy who looked very prestigious opened his mouth and scolded Noke, although he There is a smile in the words, but there is an unshakable power, as if he is the owner of this mansion.

"As the daughter of Lord Norman, she should be like this." Nock said lightly.Just when the atmosphere was stiff and the prestige boy was opening his mouth to say something, a dull voice interrupted everyone's thoughts.Someone knocked on the door of Peyton Mansion.
