D-level males reached the pinnacle of life by living off women.

On the day the banquet was held at Wardsden Manor, the port of Golan Star became more lively than ever before.

The usually deserted spaceship docked at the port was suddenly caught in an unprecedented situation: traffic was jammed.

Luxurious private spaceships kept docking at the port, and then one after another, splendidly dressed insects, both male and female, stepped off, each followed by a long line of servant insects.

These were all guests invited to the banquet; some were officials from other planets within the Arach defense line, while others were nobles residing in the nearby area.

After disembarking from the spaceship, the officials generally boarded the welcoming aircraft with normal expressions and headed to Wadsdon Estate, the venue for the banquet.

The scenery of Golan was nothing special to them; their own planet was pretty much the same.

If you really have to say something, Golan is a tiny bit more developed than their planet.

The nobles reacted quite differently after disembarking from the spaceship. Their first reaction was mostly to show disgust, especially some of the self-centered males, whose expressions were completely undisguised.

Some male insects even took out handkerchiefs and covered their noses, feeling that the air here reeked of poverty and was unworthy of their smell.

In their eyes, this planet Golan was too dilapidated and old. Look at those low buildings, my God, what century did the insects here live in? Where on earth could insects live?

And that newly appointed Duke of Rothschild, a commoner is still a commoner, he has no vision at all, he actually accepted such a place as his fief.

If they had an S-class female insect as their ruler, they would definitely try to take over the richest planets besides their capital planet as their fiefdoms. It's such a waste of an S-class female insect.

Despite their complaints, they still had to attend the banquet.

Since that short-sighted male insect is now a duke with a higher rank than them, and the female ruler is an S-class female insect, they still have to give him the respect and dignity he deserves.

The nobles all shook their heads as they boarded the aircraft and headed towards Wadsden Manor.

The street scenes they saw on the way only fueled their growing disdain.

Although they lived not far from the Arach defense line, their planet was much better than Golan.

It wasn't until the aircraft entered the area of ​​Wadsden Manor that the expressions on the nobles' faces softened, and they gradually showed satisfaction, thinking that this was the proper place for insects to live.

At the same time, I adjusted my opinion of the Duke of Rothschild. Although he didn't have much taste in choosing fiefdoms, he had decent taste in accommodations.

Rhine had hoped that the newly built house would prevent other insects from underestimating Lu Yuan, and clearly, that goal had been achieved.

......

Stepping into the banquet hall inside the main building reveals yet another scene of extravagance and debauchery.

A magnificent crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling of the hall, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime.

The ground was covered with a thick carpet, and stepping on it felt like walking on clouds.

In one corner of the hall, an orchestra was playing music live, and the air was filled with an elegant fragrance.

The ornately decorated walls are adorned with priceless works of art.

The banquet table was laden with fine wines and exquisitely prepared delicacies, along with delicately presented desserts. Various expensive ingredients were on display, and the silver cutlery gleamed under the lights.

The servants roamed around the hall, ready to serve the guests at any time.

The hall was already filled with guests, all dressed in gorgeous gowns and adorned with dazzling and expensive jewelry. They chatted and laughed to the music, occasionally sipping the food on the table.

However, all the guests would inadvertently glance at the high platform in the center of the hall.

Two ornately decorated chairs were placed on the high platform; those were the seats for the two main figures of the banquet.

......

Inside the dressing room, Lu Yuan was putting on a custom-made suit with Rhein's help.

After three months of intensive training, Lu Yuan's walking, sitting, and lying down have already acquired a few traces of aristocratic demeanor.

Well, as long as you don't make too many movements, you can still scare the bugs.

So now, wearing this elaborate and gorgeous dress, Lu Yuan felt that he actually looked quite presentable in the mirror.

Of course, he still can't compare to Rhine. His Rhine looks absolutely noble in a formal suit.

After Lu Yuan was dressed in his formal attire, Rhine placed ornaments on his head that symbolized his dukehood.

First came the crown. A deep red velvet coat paired with a crown adorned with four mink fur hat ornaments was placed on Lu Yuan's head. The crown was also inlaid with gold rings and eight red gold leaves.

Next came the sash, a royal blue sash, soft and smooth in texture, embroidered with exquisite patterns, which was slung diagonally over Lu Yuan's shoulder.

Finally, there's the medal necklace. The medal necklace Lu Yuan wore features their family crest, a purple sunflower, and is inlaid with various precious gemstones.

Of course, Rhine wore the same set of ornaments, as as the duke's consort, she could enjoy the same treatment as the duke.

After getting dressed, Lu Yuan and Rhein walked hand in hand into the banquet hall.

As soon as they entered, all the guests in the hall immediately focused their attention on Lu Yuan and Rhine. To be precise, more attention was probably on Lu Yuan.

The intense attention made Lu Yuan a little nervous, and his palms were slightly sweaty.

Rhine gently squeezed Lu Yuan's hand to encourage him.

Rhein's encouragement did indeed put Lu Yuan at ease a bit.

Lu Yuan and Rhein continued walking up the platform together. After they sat down, all the guests in the hall bowed to them.

Of course, the male insects simply bowed to Lu Yuan.

There wasn't much resentment involved, since the noble male insects living near the Arach defense line weren't of very high rank.

Sitting on the high platform, looking at the rows of bowed heads below, Lu Yuan felt a strange sense of excitement.

Lu Yuan thought to himself that this must be the taste of power; no wonder so many people like to fight for high positions.

However, while the allure of power excited Lu Yuan, it also stirred a sense of unease within him.

At this moment, Rhine's hand suddenly covered Lu Yuan's hand, and Lu Yuan also turned his hand over so that his palm was facing up and his fingers were interlocked with Rhine's.

After holding Rhine's hand, Lu Yuan's heart suddenly calmed down, and all excitement and fear disappeared.

Next, following the procedure Rhine had instructed him on, Lu Yuan said a few simple opening remarks, and then the banquet officially began.

The banquet went very smoothly. Rhine, needless to say, was used to such banquets and quickly obtained all the information he wanted.

Lu Yuan, strictly following the principles Rhine taught him to listen more, observe more, speak less, and nod more during the banquet, surprisingly earned a reputation among the guests for being wise yet unfathomable.

In short, after the banquet, the Rothschild family officially stepped onto the political stage of the Zerg Empire.
