"Your attendant took the dessert specially provided for the nobles without permission, and he still refused to move even after my servant reminded him."
Hansenlton looked not much older than Sean, but when he stood up and walked in front of Sean, he was a head taller than Sean.
Wei Xicheng compared the two people's body shapes and felt dissatisfied. It seemed that his little food was indeed not eaten very well.
Hansenton glanced at Sean in front of him with contempt, and continued: "I think he has no awareness of being an inferior. He soiled the gift given by Her Majesty the Queen. Shouldn't he be punished a little?"
"I'm sorry..." Sean's tone sounded downcast.
Hansenlton scratched his ears, stared at the man covered in stains with wide eyes, and said, "You should add a respectful title to me, you know? I feel ashamed for your master to have such a stupid servant like you."
"Yes, Lord Hansenlton, I'm sorry..." Sean looked at Mr. Samuel who waved his hand to interrupt him, and gradually fell silent.
"Hmm? This... sir?" Hanselton was puzzled by the behavior of the handsome man in front of him.
"Prince Hansenton, I think Sean has the right to sit here and enjoy the food. What you did was very rude."
Wei Xicheng felt uncomfortable. He was not a person who would protect his faults, nor was he fooled by the acting skills of the little bastard next to him. However, he felt dissatisfied when he saw that these people not only hurt people but also insulted Sean.
He attributed this feeling to the fact that Sean was now his captive blood bank. The arrogant Samuel would not allow the word "inferior" to appear in his food.
After hearing this, Hansenlton's expression became funny and he laughed out loud as if he had heard the best joke in the world.
"Sir, may I ask your name? And your title?" Hansenton raised his eyebrows, his tone complacent. He had never seen these two people in the circle, and thought they were just "bad people" who had managed to get two invitation tickets.
"Samuel."
Hansenlton showed an expression of "as expected". Just as he was about to ask, he saw that everyone in the hall suddenly became quiet and turned towards the stairs. He knew that the queen was about to appear. He had to be quiet as well, but his eyes were always on Wei Xicheng and Sean, fearing that the two would escape in the chaos.
He would humiliate these two people later so that they would know what occasions they should not go to.
Queen Dolores is over seventy years old, but still full of charm and grace. She tried her best to straighten her somewhat hunched back, with two servants following behind her to hold up her overly long skirt.
She walked slowly past the crowd, stopped in front of Samuel, and stared at the ring on Samuel's hand in a daze.
Wei Xicheng pulled out a gorgeous rose from the vase on the table beside him and gently handed it to the silver-haired queen. He leaned over slightly, took the queen's hand and kissed the back of her hand.
"Samuel Ignatius Christie sends his regards, and the dance tonight was a delight."
"Samuel..." The Queen looked at the ring on Wei Xicheng's index finger, "Your name is really... But I'm very happy that you can come."
Wei Xicheng blinked his eyes, and a hint of charm appeared on his originally indifferent face. "This may be a despicable and evil taste inherited from the family, isn't it?"
Everyone was confused by the conversation between the two, but Sean, who was standing nearby, understood it.
Samuel, a child who prayed to God to hear him. But how could a vampire hope to be heard by God?
Sean lowered his eyes and no longer looked at the rose in Dolores' hand.
But the stains on his body were too eye-catching. Dolores soon saw the dirty child standing not far from Wei Xicheng. She shook her head slightly and said, "Samuel, it seems that your followers are in a little trouble."
Wei Xicheng chuckled, "Your Majesty Dolores, you must see clearly, this is not my follower, this is..."
He thought for a moment, and finally said, "Stretch's descendant."
Strachey was the last pure-blooded hunter, and his strength shocked the world, but even a pure-blooded blood hunter would eventually die. But his name was passed down from generation to generation, and it was hard to say for others, but Queen Dolores definitely knew it.
Every person in power knows some secrets that ordinary people don’t know, such as the Duke’s ring on Wei Xicheng’s hand, and the title of purebred blood hunter.
The queen was stunned for a moment, then she came to her senses and called to Sean, "Child, come to me."
Sean walked over to Dolores, who leaned over to take a good look at the child. She raised her head and whispered to Wei Xicheng, "You are really brave."
Wei Xicheng poked Sean's head, "I've outlived Strachey, ma'am."
The Queen smiled. Although she didn't know whether the Duke in front of her would let the child live to adulthood, she still said, "I'll ask someone to prepare clean clothes for the future Strachey."
"Sean, why don't you thank Her Majesty the Queen?" Wei Xicheng touched Sean's head again. His hair was so soft and felt very nice to touch.
Although he always finds ways to cause trouble, it seems that he doesn't suffer any loss by raising such a little one.
"Can you come with me? I know it's rude, but..." Sean spoke softly and softly, and finally, under Wei Xicheng's gaze, he could not say the rest of the words.
"Let's go."
Seeing that the adult and the child were about to leave with the servants, Queen Dolores thought for a moment and said, "Please follow me."
A powerful vampire duke and a future powerful vampire hunter, this is worthy of her personal hospitality.
When everyone saw that the Queen didn't even give her usual speech and hurried away with the two of them, they all began to whisper and discuss the identities of the two people in low voices.
As time went on, the discussion became louder and louder, and Hansenton's face turned a rosy red. He angrily kicked the henchman beside him, "You have no vision."
Queen Dolores had been on the throne for forty-five years, and this was the first time she had seen the so-called vampire ring, and it was from a duke. Although she was surprised, she was not frightened.
Human life is limited, but the life of the vampires is eternal. Half of her soul has been put into the arms of God, and she is not afraid of death. Moreover, it is said that they are picky and difficult to satisfy. I am afraid that her old body and blood will not arouse the appetite of the Duke.
But as the queen of a country, she is also responsible for the personal safety of all citizens. When necessary, she must be ruthless and sacrifice a minority in exchange for the safety of the majority.
Being ruthless and decisive is a compulsory course for every queen.
"Duke Samuel, why are you here this time?" The Queen maintained her elegant etiquette and treated Wei Xicheng like a foreign envoy from afar.
"Can I ask you for a favor, my dear Dolores?" Behind other people's backs, Wei Xicheng no longer called her Her Majesty the Queen. He just looked at the silver-haired lady in front of him, and felt deeply pained when he thought that his body was old enough to be this lady's ancestor.
"Just tell me, it's my honor to serve you." Dolores said with a nostalgic tone, "From the day I put on the crown, my mother told me that I might meet a mysterious and powerful person in the future. She told me to stay rational. Because the person sitting in front of me at that time might not need much effort to destroy the beautiful city of Salo."
At the end she even made a joke, as if she had returned to her mischievous self when she first ascended the throne, "You have fulfilled one of my wishes."
"Please keep an eye out for a woman named Mavis, Dolores." Wei Xicheng turned the ring on his index finger, and a strand of hair fell from behind his ear. "I won't disturb any plant or tree here."
"It doesn't sound too difficult." Dolores nodded, but her wrinkled yet elegant neck was slightly straightened, maintaining the pride of a queen.
"gentlemen."
The door of the inner room was pushed open, and Sean, wearing new clothes, came out. Behind him was a maid holding his dirty clothes.
His cheeks were flushed, as if he was immersed in the joy of having a new set of clothes.
Wei Xicheng sneered inwardly, pushed his hair behind his ears, and looked him up and down. This set of clothes was obviously of much better quality than the ready-made clothes he bought in a clothing store, so he gave it a positive evaluation.
"not bad."
After he finished speaking, he saw Sean's eyes brighten up a few shades. He found that the boy had beautiful eyes.
Ordinary vampire hunters do not have outstanding appearances. When they choose light, it is equivalent to suppressing the other half of the blood clan with human blood. As their beliefs become stronger and stronger, the blood clan bloodline in them will become weaker and weaker, and the blood clan characteristics will also become weaker and weaker.
The vampires are handsome, while the blood hunters are average looking. This seems to be a rule.
But now, Wei Xicheng found that Sean seemed to be the odd one out. Although he was still very thin, the blush on his face made him look very healthy. His cheekbones, which were originally prominent due to his thinness, were also faded.
The neat short hair shows the liveliness that a man of his age should have. His straight nose and plump lips are very delicate, and his bright eyes add a lot to his face.
Although he is still young, the outline of his future can already be seen.
Sean seemed a little at a loss under his gaze.
Wei Xicheng retracted his gaze and continued chatting with the queen, "Dolores, are all the prominent nobles attending this ball?"
"Duke Samuel, you know that no one would miss a ball of this magnitude."
"Yeah……"
After getting the Queen's answer, Wei Xicheng had no intention of staying at such a boring dance party, so he left early with Sean.
In the stable carriage, Sean held the cloth bag in his arms and carefully asked Wei Xicheng, who had been silent since he left.
"Sir, have I upset you today?"
"No." Wei Xicheng glanced at him. He would not get angry over such a trivial matter.
"Then you..."
Wei Xicheng sighed softly, he seemed to be trapped in a vicious circle. In the past two worlds, both Sheng Huasen and Chen Zhe were cooler than the child of destiny, which made him think that the man must be either rich or noble.
And considering that both worlds like to do business and make money and have a talent for business, there is no reason why he cannot be seen at the Queen's ball.
But now, maybe his feeling is wrong. There may not be his lover in this world, and even if there is, it may just be an ordinary person.
However, he had never thought about leaving this world. Even if he couldn't find that person, he couldn't give up a role so easily.
"Sir?" Sean's voice sounded in his ears, interrupting Wei Xicheng's thoughts.
"Hmm?" Wei Xicheng glanced over.
Sean moved his throat, trying to keep his tone steady, and said, "Sir, can you tell me the story of Strachey..."
