Fantasy: Life Simulation As A Sword

Chapter 25 Aristocratic Ball

It would make her very happy if Arthur decided to accept her help.

Arthur pondered for a while and finally nodded. Right now, he was still clueless about the Sky Radiance Transcendent Academy’s recruitment procedures. He only knew that Lu Yu was guiding him there.

Additionally, he had no idea how to get attention through the recruitment process. This party was a rare opportunity to introduce himself to the key people of the academy.

“You won’t be disappointed. With your strength, those big shots will definitely favor you!” Jynx said with certainty.

After deciding on the time and place for the ball, Arthur and Jynx went their separate ways. Arthur went to find an inn.

Jynx initially wanted to help Arthur with these matters, but Arthur refused. He didn’t want to receive everything from others just because he did them a small favor.

However, Cantero City was indeed too crowded. Due to that, many inns were already full. The only unoccupied inns were all frighteningly expensive.

Shortly after, Arthur found a hotel that looked rather ordinary. In contrast to the exterior, the price was as high as 30 gold coins a night.

For an ordinary person, this was an incredible number. However, it was nothing for Arthur. After all, he had gained a lot of wealth from killing Baron Spencer and the bandits.

Although he didn’t voluntarily collect them, he had already gotten an astonishing amount of100000 gold coins and gold notes.

After taking a bath and meditating for a while, Arthur brought Lu Yu and headed to the ball that Jynx mentioned. The party was held in a massive and lavish restaurant. From the outside, the building looked like a vast auditorium.

Arthur observed the door. There were marble pillars decorated with gold patterns at the top beside the entrance. The door itself was exquisitely designed and looked grand, suitable for nobles.

A group of guards stood by the door, smiling and elegantly greeting the guests. One by one, nobles in tuxedos took out their letters and were politely led in. As Arthur watched, a familiar figure ran out from beside the building

Jynx wore a lace dress made of high-quality fabric embroidered with gold threads. The dress was exposed at the neckline and wrapped around her thin figure, revealing her curves. Additionally, the dress was adorned with beautiful pearls that shone as she moved around.

She no longer looked like the crying little girl a few hours ago.

Jynx looked at Arthur in surprise and said, “Arthur, you’re finally here. Come, I’ll bring you in!”

Then, she ran in with Arthur.

The guards at the door wanted to persuade the young lady when they saw her running with her skirt. However, by the time they came to their senses, Jynx and Arthur had already disappeared from their sight.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, Arthur smelled a pleasant fragrance. The food was mixed with special spices, enveloping the building with an aromatic smell.

There were a group of nobles and their offspring talking around them. Wearing tuxedos, their mannerisms were completely different from Huska’s townspeople.

Arthur had seen the clothes of nobles before. The least nicely-dressed people were Barons, and some were even Viscounts.

As a commoner, he seemed a little out of place. Due to that, Arthur’s actions became a little uneasy. However, he touched his sword and observed his surroundings. His nervousness immediately dissipated.

Many of the Barons in front of him were only in the second energy level. There weren’t many people stronger than him, and only a few could match Baron Spencer’s strength. Moreover, most of their children were only energy level one, and a majority of them weren’t as strong as Arthur was a month ago.

If he applied to the Officials of the Canglan Empire and paid enough money, he could also become a Baron after a while. However, he didn’t have the corresponding fief.

Jynx led Arthur forward until they reached a man in a Viscount’s attire. The man wore a casual black hat and a black tuxedo with gold embroidery. The tuxedo was like a long robe that dragged behind him. Furthermore, he wore straight black pants with a small scimitar attached to his black gilded belt.

Although his face was fair, there were some wrinkles on his face as he faintly smiled. It wasn’t difficult to see he could make noble ladies drunk with his face when he was younger.

Arthur noticed the Viscount in front of him was a peak energy level three user. He was the strongest person Arthur had seen so far.

Jynx stood in front of the man and pulled Arthur over. She said sweetly, “Dad, this is Arthur, the one I told you about this afternoon.”

Then, she said to Arthur, “Arthur, this is my father, Viscount Alger.”

Without waiting for Arthur to speak, Viscount Alger walked over and said affectionately, “Arthur, I’d like to thank you on behalf of my daughter. Your actions today protected her mother’s only keepsake.”

“I don’t even know how to properly thank you. If you need anything, do tell me. I’ll definitely do my best to help you.”

Arthur, who was still considering how to greet him, was startled by Viscount Alger’s hospitality. At this moment, Lu Yu couldn’t help but smile when he observed the Viscount’s demeanor.

Viscount Alger seemed to be a slave to his daughter and couldn’t bear to see his daughter cry. Jynx might’ve grown up under deep love.

“Sir Alger, I really didn’t do much. The thief just so happened to run by me.”

Arthur shook his head wryly and rejected Alger’s offer to repay him. Standing at the side, Jynx was clearly annoyed by her father’s actions.

She pushed Viscount Alger aside and said, “Dad, you go entertain the guests. I’ll bring Arthur around the cocktail party.”

Afterward, she brought Arthur and ran to another section of the ball.

Meanwhile, two young nobles who had just filled their glasses with wine were about to approach Jynx when they saw her. As soon as they got close, Jynx ran away with an unknown person. In embarrassment, they looked at their drinks in a daze.

They looked at each other and frowned. Seeing Arthur, who seemed close to Jynx, their expressions were unfriendly.
