I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

Chapter 531

At night, in the ballroom of Freya College.

Melodious music continued to sound under the performance of the band, and celebrities from all walks of life talked and laughed with the accompaniment.

Interests, cooperation, and even the exchange of talents under their command, a random word may determine the fate of a place or even a person.

The reason why so many people gathered here is to celebrate for Freya College, which won the exchange meeting and stood at the top of all colleges again.

This famous school once again proved its value. A temporary failure does not mean eternal decline, and the first place in the past does not mean that it cannot be the first in the future.

In the name of the banquet, all kinds of attention and investment will probably come in an endless stream. Kodorev, who is in charge of these, is already very busy. Just drinking with those big shots who came is enough for him to drink a pot.

However, the most concerned is not the college itself, but the students and teachers who participated in the exchange meeting.

Whether as a member of the brave candidate, or as a future saint whose identity has not been exposed but has already shown a powerful healing ability, or a magic swordsman who split the sea of ​​fire with a sword and showed extraordinary skills.

Everyone received a certain degree of attention and was destined to be the focus at this banquet.

On the contrary, Alina, as the captain, was not surrounded by people as expected. Those people in the noble social circle just came over and said hello symbolically and left, without any intention of communicating deeply with the ninth princess.

There is no way. On the day of the exchange meeting finals, the news that Alina was defeated in a single fight had spread throughout the kingdom. Now everyone knows that Alina was hit by a sword in the abdomen.

The Red Lotus Knights fell apart. As the leader, Alina not only failed to perform her duties, but also lost the title of the strongest contemporary peers in the battle of the exchange meeting.

There are fewer and fewer people willing to support her. The few nobles who are willing to communicate with her are even those sent by the palace. Basically, they put all kinds of pressure on her as soon as they meet.

They all wanted to drive the ninth princess back to the palace and consider various future marriage issues with other royal descendants who were not the first to inherit the throne.

Since she could not make any contribution to the kingdom in terms of strength, she should just go back and be a princess.

Those who left after saying hello gathered around one person and talked to him in a very enthusiastic tone.

And this person was Elena, who defeated Bart in the exhibition match of the exchange meeting. She was a practical class teacher at a young age. As a junior among juniors, she defeated an old strong man like Bart, and she was even called a dragon slayer.

Anyone who was a little more perceptive understood that Elena was the youngest and most powerful strong man today. There would be no problem in making friends with such a person in advance. No matter what, she had to make a familiar face at this banquet.

Many people knew that Elena was born in an orphanage. When she was young, she was introverted and gentle. This kind of scene was probably her first time to participate, and she might be shy when asked questions.

But the fact shocked everyone. Elena was not nervous at all and was quite skilled in such occasions. He could handle any big shot from any faction with ease.

He was easy-going and friendly in his words. He would not lose face no matter who he was. He had a good chat with all kinds of big shots and became the focus of the whole banquet.

Many people felt very puzzled. It should be the first time for Elena to attend such a banquet in the aristocratic social circle. The civilians who attended for the first time were so nervous that they could hardly speak. Why didn't Elena have such a situation?

Did Elena secretly attend similar scenes?

In a sense, they really guessed it right. As a well-known top mercenary in his previous life, Elena often attended similar occasions and was used to wearing a mask to talk with these big shots.

He also knew how to refuse in a tone that would not make the other party angry. It can be said that Elena could mix well in such occasions.

After sending off batches of nobles, Elena touched her dry throat and licked her dry lips, trying to find something to moisten her throat.

The servants in charge of the banquet reception were very discerning. A maid came over with a purple-red wine and motioned Elena to take it.

The aroma of the wine was very strong, and it was particularly prominent even in this noisy environment. Elena subconsciously stretched out her hand to take it, but she froze in mid-air before touching the wine glass.

Some bad memories flooded into her mind. The drunken look that day when she was treated like a doll was still vivid in her mind, and Elena retracted her hand in fear.

"Please help me change it to juice."

Elena was scared. Although she would not get drunk if she really drank a glass, she was afraid of her appearance.With such a psychological shadow, he dared not touch any alcoholic beverages in the near future.

However, thanks to the last experience, Elena also figured out some things. The relationship between him and his predecessor was not about taking over and being taken over, but more about merging into a new existence.

After all, when Elena is drunk, he will directly "revert to his ancestors". The look of emptying his mind and longing for the warmth of others is an instinct emanating from the depths of his soul, which Elena cannot control even if he wants to.

He took the juice handed over by the maid and drank it. His dry throat felt much better. At this time, Elena looked at the distance and saw a golden figure walking towards the balcony with some disappointment.

"Thank you."

After putting the cup back on the tray and accepting the sweet smile of the maid, Elena walked slowly towards the balcony. He really couldn't let go of the other party.

It was just that it was a bit difficult for Elena to move. Many people were watching his movements. Once he made a move, they would come over to ask about his well-being.

These people who wanted to curry favor with him were even more positive than those who treated the dean of this academy, Kodorev.

After all, unlike the old man who had lived for many years, the future of the young man Elena seemed brighter.

Many people even thought that if Kodorev fell into poverty in the future, the next dean of this Freya Academy might be Elena.

Although neither Elena nor Kodorev had ever thought about these issues, Elena himself had no intention of running a large academy.

It took Elena a lot of effort to break through the crowd and walked towards the balcony in a somewhat embarrassed manner. After a careful look, he found that the other party had not left.

After taking a look at the lonely golden figure, Elena subconsciously looked back at the lively banquet scene, and the deserted balcony formed a sharp contrast with it.

It was like two worlds. If you step into it, the hustle and bustle of the world will be far away. This feeling made Elena couldn't help but sigh.
