Chapter 265: Visiting Duke Ward's Dream

"On behalf of the Ward Family, I am honored to invite all of you to this evening's banquet."

"Today, I am pleasantly surprised to see many old friends, and I welcome the addition of many new friends."

"Let us raise our glasses, to a more prosperous tomorrow for the Dillon Kingdom!"

Clang～

Unlike the somewhat strict banquet etiquette of the Feis Kingdom, Duke Ward's seemingly casual few words escalated the party atmosphere to a climax.

With the gathered guests raising their glasses together, the soirée officially began.

Lis, feigning slight discomfort with this atmosphere, stood holding his drink at the side of the banquet hall, coldly observing the lively crowd before him.

He noticed a few individuals not far away, dressed in the same formal attire of senior officials from the Dillon Kingdom, looking somewhat ill at ease.

Were they, like him, covertly suggested to come here?
