T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World.

Chapter 642, Section 641: We always care about young people with clear eyes.

From the smooth landing of the carriage to entering the main banquet hall.

Along the way, the place was bustling with people and brightly lit, and the grandeur of the scene secretly surprised every member of Rainbow Rain.

A century ago, Devland was also a wealthy and powerful nation, but in terms of the almost extreme extravagance revealed in its daily banquets, it seemed to be less than half that of the present-day Anna Empire.

The aristocratic men and women here, their clothing and makeup are so exquisite that they have transcended mere glamour, exuding a meticulous craftsmanship and a commonplace extravagance.

Crystal artifacts, which should have been used as magical materials, are now ubiquitous.

Or it might appear on the hem of a skirt in full bloom, serving as a shimmering decoration.

Or it may appear on the outer frame of a brooch that women wear on their chests.

The air was filled with the delicate scent of expensive perfumes, which mingled with the aromas of food and the fragrance of flowers, creating a unique and slightly intoxicating atmosphere.

As soon as they stepped into the courtyard of the manor and were led into the main hall by the waiters, everyone in Rainbow Rain felt dazzled and somewhat intoxicated.

A retinue of nearly a hundred servants moved about, and the spacious atrium was filled with dining tables, offering a variety of delicacies free of charge and in unlimited quantities.

Barrels of liquor were piled up on the ground, and the door to the basement was open, where the butler would occasionally call out the names of more expensive vintages.

Even Elsa, the saintess who created wonders underground, couldn't help but be taken aback by the extravagance of a single banquet.

No wonder Potato specifically told them before they left that Devland was a resource-poor continent compared to Anna.

Now they understand the meaning of that sentence.

The unique environment of the Ana Continent has not only nurtured a variety of civilizations, but also provided ample food for every ethnic group.

Throughout history, Anna's expansion has never been a battle for resources.

Simply having the strength is not enough; it would be a disservice to the violence at one's disposal if one did nothing.

Back in the Leaf Elf Kingdom, Squid had heard people comment on this period of expansion—that a strong but impudent child had rashly obtained a high-level scroll with astonishing destructive power.

If Kurien hadn't stopped the expansion, Jiang Heyi suspected that Anna would have naturally fallen into civil war and disintegrated at some point.

The Lion King's foresight is truly admirable.

"A product of overeating," Vanassis muttered dismissively.

Without the need for external expansion, the vast aristocratic class instantly became parasites sucking the blood of the empire, pursuing nothing but extravagant enjoyment.

This ultimately led to the current state of the Anna Empire's aristocratic system, which is so convoluted that anyone can criticize it.

Kurien spent the first half of his life struggling to resolve the stalemate left over from the pioneering era.

By merely addressing some of the problems, Anna achieved a remarkable revival. One can only imagine the extent of the damage the entire empire had been in in the past.

The comments from the players of the previous StarCraft game were quite apt.

"This is a country built on a mountain of shit code. Everyone adheres to the idea of using it as long as it works, and keeps piling up new mountains of shit."

"Only Kurien doesn't want the mountain of shit to collapse and crush countless poor people, so he's trying his best to be that pitiful porter."

Simply listening to the three of them—Potato, Fries, and Mint—give you a brief overview of history, but that's not enough to get a truly intuitive understanding.

It seems that the nobles of Anna will use their own experiences to complete the final part of this trip to the capital.

After being politely led into the central garden of the banquet by a dedicated waiter, the Rainbow Rain members realized that they seemed to have been forgotten there.

After completing his task of leading the way, the waiter quietly withdrew without offering any further guidance, nor did any host come to greet him.

The central garden is beautiful and brightly lit, but most of the people gathered there are young faces.

Judging from their conversation, it is not difficult to tell that most of these people came from the five most prestigious universities in the empire.

Unlike the main banquet hall, where the atmosphere was one of clinking glasses and sophisticated aristocracy, this place exuded a more flamboyant vibe.

The appearance of Rainbow Rain and her group instantly attracted almost everyone's attention.

Many people present originally thought that Rainbow Rain would contact the nobles in the main hall directly, and only come to the courtyard at the invitation of others when the time was right.

Unexpectedly, today's protagonist has made such a grand appearance.

Elsa could read the eyes of these young people.

The undisguised scrutiny and comparison carried a hint of resentment and provocation.

She was also stared at in this way by her competitors when she rose to fame among the Clarists.

However, they are competitors to each other, and these young people are simply overly conscious.

Or perhaps, their minds have been marinated with strange doctrines and ideas, leading them to believe that they have some real insights or abilities far beyond their own imagination, and they can't wait to find some sense of existence.

Anna's grand stage, come and do whatever you need.

"It doesn't look like anything special. Is it really as amazing as Renee says?"

"Rene is well-mannered and always considers other people's feelings. She likes to appreciate others."

"Mage Tower level, huh~~"

These discussions were not deliberately kept quiet; in fact, some of the remarks were clearly intended for Rainbow Rain's people to hear.

"Where is the guiding waiter?"

While Henila was still looking for someone, Elsa lowered her voice to remind him.

"Stop looking, it was done on purpose."

"deliberately?"

"Either they're trying to make things a little difficult for us so that the important person hosting the banquet can step in and smooth things over, making a good impression. Or they want to test our strength before the banquet even starts."

Gloria sneered: "Whichever it is, it's quite opportunistic. Are they treating us like real country bumpkins?"

The mouse looked around anxiously: "Where's the jailer? Where's the jailer? Please help me!"

Rainbow Rain isn't afraid of conflict; they'd love to cause a big scene, just like when Jailer Bro ignited the nobles by drawing lewd pictures in public.

However, this kind of situation requires someone to help control the situation to prevent it from spiraling out of control.

They didn't want to give Prince Thiago a chance to make an appearance. The entire Rainbow Rain team loathed this scheming fellow.

"found it!"

Ghost Mouse quickly tugged at Gloria's sleeve, which led everyone to follow her gaze and find the mysterious jailer brother mingling around the dining table in the central courtyard, enjoying a plate of seafood.

If the main hall of the manor is a private gathering place for adults, where nobles clink glasses and toast, then the atrium, occupied by students and young people, is purely for children.

He ate without any qualms, and when someone came to greet him, he shook hands with them warmly.

The chat started with adult art, erotic pictures, and mentions of the XP system.

Many nobles, lacking self-control, seemed to have just finished a round of aerobic exercise after just a couple of sentences.

"Such strong mental fortitude... someone who draws erotic pictures is being pointed at and gossiped about in public, and still has such a good appetite. Is this the second round?"

"Stop praising him yet. This jailer is completely absorbed in his social life. Can he really help control the situation..." Elsa sighed, "I miss fries!"

Hearing the increasingly loud discussions and provocative glances around her, Gloria decided to ignore the situation with the jailer.

She gestured for the team members to head towards the buffet area: "Hurry up and grab a bite, I'm about to start the performance."

Grab a large piece of roasted lamb chop, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and take a big bite. The aroma of the fat explodes in your mouth instantly.

She chewed while glaring at Plata, who was about to grab some bread.

"Silly butterfly! You come to a place like this and only eat bread? You could get full by eating meat."

Elsa and Dark Green ate in a rather refined manner, chewing slowly and carefully.

But the original members of Sunshower were completely different; their long and arduous adventures had instilled in them a rough eating habit.

Henilakai grabbed half of the fragrant roasted lamb leg, put it to his mouth, and tore it apart with his sharp teeth. The rich juices dripped down his chin and thick hair, but he didn't care and ate with great relish.

Vanassis, on the other hand, focused on a plate piled high with roast meat, skillfully and quickly bringing it to his mouth with his fork, his cheeks soon puffing out.

The seemingly petite mouse was also holding a sausage that was bigger than her face and gnawing on it with all her might.

Each one of them ate with an even more ferocious manner.

Sigh, it's caused by a long-term fast-food diet.

The eldest prince, Thiago, who was secretly observing, was dumbfounded.

This was completely different from what he had imagined. How did he end up... eating it?

There were clearly several very pretty girls, but... how could they be so rude?

Seeing Gloria, who was leading the group, wipe her mouth with a napkin in a way that was completely different from her usual boisterous eating manner, Thiago was in a daze, thinking that he was seeing different people.

Under his gaze, Gloria walked towards... the next table?

"Hey, I'm talking to you." Gloria pointed at a girl with curly blonde hair. "Yes, you. I've heard you muttering to yourself for a long time, it seems like... you really want to spar with us?"

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Gloria and the blonde girl who had been called out.

The once noisy courtyard instantly quieted down, and the air was filled with the excitement of watching a good show.

The show is finally here!

The first thing to be unable to contain itself was the rainbow rain.

The blonde girl was clearly taken aback by the other person's directness. Her face flushed instantly, partly from embarrassment and partly from anger at having her thoughts exposed in public.

Her companions were also stunned, unsure how to react.

“I heard you say that rank 6 equals rank 8. I’m very curious whether there’s a unique rank calculation method belonging to the Anna Central Bureau that we’re unaware of.” Gloria continued her invitation, “Would you mind performing a little entertainment with us?”

The stalemate continued until a loud "Okay!" broke the silence.

It was the jailer; he put down the steak he had just received and enthusiastically joined in the commotion.

Returning to my original job, I will once again relive the glory of my past life as a cheerful person!

The crowd, always eager for a good show, joined in the commotion as soon as someone took the lead.

In an instant, the blond curly hair was placed on the fire to roast.

She no longer bothered to hide her blonde curly hair.

“Alright, I’d also like to experience firsthand the true strength of Rainbow Rain, who is renowned throughout the southern border of the empire.”

She walked confidently up to Gloria.

"7th Rank, Imperial Royal Magic Academy, Melissa."

At just over twenty years old, at the 7th level, and studying at the Royal Magic Academy, which is closest to the royal family, his talent and background are evident, and he certainly has the right to be proud.

Gloria stretched out her hand and pointed to the group of people enjoying Rainbow Rain's meal.

"Then you can choose an opponent?"

"Oh? I can choose?"

"We always care about young people with clear eyes."

Gloria slightly omitted a section from what she had learned from the potato.

The original quote also included the word "stupid," which was a bit too offensive.

Many people present were trying not to laugh.

The Rainbow Rain group didn't look very old, but when they said those words, it sounded like they were coaxing a child.

Feeling humiliated, Melissa's fingertips stopped at...

"Him, you know, the one without eyebrows."

Golovin was sucking cow marrow when Henilakai elbowed him, and he realized that he had been called out.

He pointed to himself: "Oh, me?"
