Wizard: You can become stronger by living life to the fullest.

Chapter 34, Section 034: Winning Over

A few days later, at Blackstone Castle, in the banquet hall.

The long dining table, covered with a pristine white tablecloth, was laden with a variety of delicacies: thinly sliced ​​foie gras, crispy roasted venison drizzled with honey, caviar, and more. The enticing aromas filled the air, making one's mouth water.

Soothing music filled the banquet hall, with lutes, flutes, and various other instruments blending together to create beautiful melodies under the skillful playing of the musicians.

The spacious banquet hall was bustling with people, some dancing, some eating, and others clinking glasses.

The treatment of Count Fernandez went very smoothly. The curse cast upon him was not a complicated one. Rosie unraveled the mystery and successfully removed the evil magic in just two days.

To express their gratitude for Roche's help, the Fernandez family held a grand banquet at Blackstone Castle.

Rosie was initially reluctant to participate, but the Fernandi family's hospitality was too much to refuse. Since she had nothing else to do anyway, experiencing the exotic customs of the human world wouldn't hurt.

"Is that gentleman the wizard who healed the Earl? He's so handsome! Hehe."

"I heard he came alone, without a female companion."

"Huh? Really?"

Although nobles knew more about wizards, very few had actually seen one. Rosie's appearance inevitably made her the focus of the banquet hall.

The men, holding wine glasses and wearing enthusiastic smiles, kept flattering him, trying to win his favor.

Young and beautiful noble ladies would deliberately lower their necklines to invite him to dance. Once Rosie agreed, they would try every means to make their sensitive parts come into contact with Rosie on the dance floor.

She was more like a hostess at a karaoke bar than an elegant noblewoman.

"I really shouldn't have come to this banquet." Being surrounded by people was really making Luo Xi feel annoyed.

The only consolation is that the food here tastes pretty good; the chef is highly skilled and can even cook tough ingredients like veal without making it taste fishy.

A corner of the banquet hall.

Count Fernandi, still recovering from a serious illness, was resting on the sofa, but his gaze remained fixed on Rosie over there.

He glanced at the nobles circling around Rosie and sneered, "These are my vassals, a bunch of greedy fellows. Haven't I given them enough? Do they really want to become the next Fernandi?"

Everyone is very familiar with the Fernandez family's struggle to become earls, but few people know that the Fernandez family was able to join the ranks of nobility because of a wizard.

The first Earl of Fernandez received help from a wizard.

Carol, who was standing beside him, said, "I think they're just curious, Father. After all, this is a real wizard."

Fernandi glanced at him and asked, "Is that really what you think?"

Carol paused for a moment.

The count continued, "You did very well this time, but it doesn't change anything. Your eldest brother has the support of the Riverlands, your second brother has the cavalry of the Valley, and you, my child, only have a sincere filial heart."

"This is worthless in the world of the nobility."

Carroll seemed puzzled, as if he didn't quite understand the meaning behind Count Fernandez's words to him.

The count frowned and said bluntly, "I'm old. Although I've come this time, I'll eventually have to go to my ancestors. The Western Territory needs someone to inherit it. Who do you think is the most suitable?"

Carroll's glass swayed slightly, and a little wine spilled out.

This was something he had never even imagined before.

The count looked at Rosie over there and said, "Go and talk to him. If magic is willing to stand on your side, you can treat any number of troops as nothing."

Ugh, why are they all surrounding me? Am I a monkey in a zoo?

In the banquet hall, Luo Xi was already quite annoyed; there were just too many flies around him, constantly making a racket and driving him crazy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, could you please leave some privacy for our distinguished guest?" Just then, Carol walked in and blocked the surrounding crowd from entering.

"Your Excellency Wizard, the banquet hall is a bit stuffy. How about we go to the small garden for some fresh air?"

This is exactly what I wanted.

Carol led Rosie to the backyard of the castle, where there was a garden, elegant and secluded.

"Phew, I can finally catch my breath." Luo Xi took a big breath of fresh air.

"Complete one deep breath, time point +3 days."

It's probably quite easy now, even the system has a time point.

Carol said with a hint of apology, "I'm sorry, Your Excellency Wizard, our nobles of the West have lost face. On behalf of the Fernandi family, I would like to express my apologies to you."

Luo Xi casually replied, "It's nothing, I was just a little too enthusiastic."

He had a good impression of the noble young master who was trying his best to save his family, after all, he also shared the same belief in caring for his family.

Carol then started a conversation: "I noticed you're carrying a cross-shaped sword, Wizard. Besides magic, are you also interested in swordsmanship?"

Rosie nodded: "I've been training in swordsmanship all along."

Carol said, "If it's about swordsmanship, I do know quite a few outstanding sword masters. If you need them, sir, I can introduce them to you. I think it would be a great honor for them to teach you."

Luo Xi thought for a moment, but then shook his head: "Forget it, I won't stay here for too long."

Mastering a set of advanced sword techniques takes a long time. Although he could quickly master it through the system with just one or two simple lessons, he didn't want to waste his time on sword techniques.

After all, the main purpose of practicing swordsmanship is to accumulate time points; if it's the other way around, it's putting the cart before the horse.

"I see."

Carol was somewhat regretful, but quickly replied, "Is there anything else I can do for you, Wizard? My father wouldn't have recovered without your help, and my Fernandez family has yet to express our gratitude to you."

Rosie glanced at Carol and realized that the other woman was trying to get closer to him and establish a connection.

For a nobleman, especially a minor nobleman with virtually no power or inheritance rights, to try to curry favor with an extraordinary person is clearly a sign of utter arrogance.

However, Rosie had a good impression of Carol, so after thinking about it, she decided to give him the chance.

He pondered for a moment and said, "I've heard that in addition to rigorous training, apprentice knights must undergo special secret techniques to become knights, something like the Knight's Breathing Technique?"

After three years of training, Rosie's three-dimensional attributes have basically reached the limit of human beings. If she wants to improve further, she must advance to the rank of knight. The key to advancing to the rank of knight is this knight breathing technique.

However, Allen refused to teach him the Knight's Breathing Technique, saying that he had sworn a knightly oath and could not pass it on to anyone outside his family.

Luo Xi had been planning to visit Fairy Street sometime, but now that he had the opportunity, he decided to give it a try. He just didn't know if this minor nobleman would be willing to give it up.

After all, the Knight's Breathing Technique is the foundation upon which almost every nobleman makes a living, and it is also the basis upon which the noble class can rule the secular world. The vast majority of nobles regard it as more important than life itself.

"Knight's Breathing Technique?"

Carol was taken aback, but quickly realized that this was an opportunity that Rosie had deliberately given him.

He certainly didn't hesitate for a second; on the contrary, he seemed very happy.

"The Fernandi family is willing to give you everything."
