Chapter 283: Royal Palace Banquet, Dressed Up
The relationship between Moshe and Artbolg is a little tricky now.
They don’t look like father and son, or superiors and subordinates, but more like friends who have known each other for a long time.
Although they don’t contact each other at ordinary times, they will appear at important moments, showing the intimacy and tacit understanding between old friends.
"Open it quickly and take a look!" Dario was even more impatient than Moshe and squatted beside the box excitedly.
Mo Xie pressed the lock of the submerged wooden box and gently pulled it upwards.
As the lid of the box opened, dazzling light poured out, instantly filling the entire room.
This description is not an exaggeration. The colorful light shot into their pupils, forcefully depriving them of their vision.
Did the Marquis send a whole box of gems?
With this thought in mind, Dalio opened his eyes cautiously.
When he saw what was in the box, he was stunned for a few seconds, then he screamed: "Wow!"
In the Kingdom of Renekton, clothing stores accept two methods of customization: using the fabrics in the store or bringing your own fabrics.
Obviously, this midnight blue ombre gown belongs to the latter.
"What kind of magical fabric is this? It glows!" Dalio's eyes were full of amazement. As he spoke, he shrank back, as if he was worried that his breath or saliva accidentally flying out of his mouth would contaminate the dress.
Mo Xie picked up a corner of the dress and stroked its smooth surface with his fingers. "You can call it '绡'."
Is this a gift or a trade?
Without his knowledge, the mermaid leader Tianhan had a secret meeting with Atbolg.
"Xiao?" Dalio was a little confused. "This is the first time I've heard of this name."
With Moshe's help, he boldly observed and finally saw the secret of the dress.
It turns out that the outermost layer of the dress is made of tulle, and underneath is a dark matte fabric, which is tightly sewn with fine threads of the same color. It looks rich in layers and as if it is a harmonious whole.
Dalio was silent for a moment, then asked tentatively: "Maybe... it is waterproof?"
Mo Xie smiled and said, "You are right. In fact, it is a fabric made by the mermaids of the East Continent. It is similar to gauze and will not get wet by water."
His friend not only had an outstanding talent in appreciation, but also had a very good eye.
"Eastern Continent Mermaids?" Dalio looked confused. "What kind of creature is that?"
Because of the mermaid's special physique, Artborg and the king decided not to publicly introduce its existence for the time being.
In the country of Renekton, except for a few old scholars who specialize in studying the East Continent, almost no one has heard of mermaids.
"They live in the deep sea and don't like to be disturbed." Moshe planted a seed of curiosity in Dalio's heart, "If there is a chance, I can take you to visit them."
"Okay!" Dalio nodded obediently without asking any further questions.
Ordinary dresses will have obvious wrinkles if they are not properly stored or ironed on time. However, this dress is different. The clothes are neatly folded in a box that exudes a strong woody aroma. When you pick it up and take a look, the surface is smooth and flat, as if it had just been sewn and not packaged for transportation.
Perhaps the suit was custom-made by Artborg, but Moshe believed that his physical data was completely provided by Boris, as he always did.
Moshe slowly buttoned the last button and turned to face Dario.
"How about it?"
I don’t know who the designer of this dress is, or whether I have had close contact with him.
The midnight blue gradient fabric forms a dreamy color under the cover of the shark silk. It does not make his already fair skin look even paler, but makes his whole skin look more vivid and bright white, as if he were bathing in the moonlight.
The style of the dress fits his current body shape very well, between a teenager and a young adult, exuding youthful vitality yet still elegant and steady.
The tulle threads outlined the lines of his shoulders, back, waist and hips. The smooth fabric wrapped around his torso, and the slightly concave shadows showed the direction of his muscles, perfectly supporting the dress.
Dalio's eyes sparkled, and he blurted out: "It looks good!"
He was stunned for a moment, then changed the topic: "Uh, what I mean is... you are very handsome."
Mo Xie raised his hand and touched his hair, "It seems like something is missing."
"It's the hairstyle." Dario motioned for him to lower his head, whispered something about being rude, and then helped him fix his hairstyle. "I think you should separate the hair in the front... um, like this."
"Thank you." Mo Xie stood up and thanked with a smile.
Dario looked at the precious sunken wooden box, then at the man in luxurious clothes, and asked innocently, "Why did the Marquis give you this dress?"
"I need to take a day off tomorrow to attend the palace banquet."
Dalio nodded in understanding, "So that's how it is."
But soon, the dormitory fell into silence.
Curly slowly opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and then burst out with a resonant voice: "What did you say?!"
Mo Xie withdrew his magic power, and the window that was originally wide open gently closed.
All night long, he could feel the burning gazes staring at the back of his head from behind.
Attending a banquet is not an easy thing, especially a banquet hosted by the royal family, which lasts longer than a banquet between family members and requires many more things to pay attention to.
The next morning, Moshe dressed neatly, took his dress, jewelry and storage box, and left the dormitory quietly.
The McIntosh family's carriage was already waiting outside the college gate, with two dazzling golden figures inside, obviously his acquaintances.
"Master Mo Xie." The knight in light armor bowed and opened the car door.
Moshe jumped up lightly and said with a smile, "Good morning, Marquis, Arthurs."
The two golden lions stared at him, their eyes moving slightly.
The interior of the carriage is very spacious, with large empty seats on both sides.
The air was abnormally pure and fresh. Although there were two human-shaped magic universes, there was no magic overflow at all.
Moshe didn't hesitate and sat next to Arthurs.
This action seemed to cheer up Arthurs, and he could talk to Artborg in person. "You know, Moshe, I was yesterday..."
Moshe listened quietly with a smile on his face, and at the same time cast a look at Artborg who had a cold expression.
Artborg withdrew his gaze, picked up the information beside him and looked through it, no longer paying attention to the children's interaction.
The carriage drove straight into the royal city without anyone stopping it.
The McIntosh family was the guest of honor at this banquet. The lounge prepared by the royal family for the three of them was as big as a main hall. The maids and waiters were the elite among the elites and performed their duties perfectly.
Arthurs looked up and down at the newly dressed Moshe, frowned and said, "What on earth does father think?"
"Isn't this dress suitable for me?" asked Moshe.
"No, that's not the case." Arthurs shook his head quickly, "I mean..."
"This dress suits you so well that it makes me feel like my father wants to push you into marriage."
Arthurs' serious look successfully made Moshe laugh.
"Thank you for the compliment, it's very interesting."
At this time, a white figure appeared outside the door, tall and straight, like a sword ready to be unsheathed at any time.
It was Artborg, who had just finished his meeting with the high-ranking nobles and was preparing to take them to the banquet.
Mo Xie walked between the two golden lions, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, appearing confident and calm.
Although her appearance was different from theirs, the aura she exuded from inside out attracted a group of nobles to stop and watch.
"The MacIntosh family, Marquis Arterborg MacIntosh, Sir Moshe MacIntosh, Sir Arthurs MacIntosh enter——!"
