Chapter 82
First of all, Seytil calmed down.
The banquet is only just beginning. There are many opportunities to embarrass him.
Just then, the orchestras music changed.
Thats right.
In a cheerful and exciting way.
The time for dancing, the most important part of the banquet, has begun.
Theres no way theres a lady dancing with him.
Seytil gave a sneer.
He looks a little handsome, but thats all.
A lady of honor would never want to dance with him.
He will be a loner, unable to find a partner to dance with and will eventually have to drink alone.
The moment he was about to call for joy, Seytils eyes grew bigger.
More perfect than anyone else on the floor. A person dancing beautifully caught his eyes.
It was Raymond and Christine.
***
Well, should I dance?
Raymond agonized.
His goal is to promote medicine!
I wasnt interested in dancing.
But its hard not to dance at all.
It was a great disgrace not to be able to dance with anyone at a banquet due to common sense of social culture.
He will become an official social outcast.
You will be laughed at behind your back.
So without a partner, it was basic to dance with a brother.
Well, there is Lao. But whats Christine doing?
Lao was chatting with his academy colleagues.
And Christine was alone.
?
Raymond tilted his head.
Why is she alone?
She is the first princess of the best duke.
I thought she ought to be hanging out with a lot of people?
Is she going away for a while?
That doesnt seem to be the case either.
Raymond watched for a moment, but she was not thinking of moving in the corner.
Only then did Raymond notice the situation.
She is being outcasted in the social circle.
Rumors of her came to mind.
A good princess who serves the common people.
As such, it has great support among the common people, but there have been rumors of the opposite.
A disgrace to the duke.
The nobles looked at Christine, kicking her noble seat and putting dirty blood on her hands, with pathetic eyes.
Everyone just glanced at her with sneering eyes, but did not try to get close.
Especially Christines own brother.
The second prince led the atmosphere in which she was left out.
.
Christine remained motionless in the corner of the banquet hall.
Raymond clenched his fist at a completely different appearance from his usual self.
Master?
Christine opened her eyes wide as Raymond approached.
Whats the matter? Has anyone been mean to you? Just tell me! Ill figure it out for you. Christine was worried about him.
She hits her chest with her fist and posed as if saying that Raymond can trust her.
No, there was no such thing.
But whats wrong with your face? Are you worried about a patient again?
Its not like that. Im here to ask you a favor.
Raymond clung out his hand to Christine with questioning eyes.
What is this?
Im requesting your hand for a dance.
What?
Christine had a blank look on her face.
Perhaps because she was so pretty, her silly expression was so cute that Raymond laughed without realizing it.
Why with me?
Well
There is no particular reason. It was just an impulsive application. But he was shy and gave a different reason.
Its to promote the clinic.
I beg your pardon?
So, why dont you do a dance of dialogue to let the pretentious aristocrats know the greatness of the Penin Clinic?
Christine shuts her mouth for a moment.
Her eyes were wondering what nonsense it was.
Well, well, thats.
Okay Youre being considerate of me, arent you?
Raymond made an expression, showcasing his embarrassment.
She took Raymond by the hand.
Lets promote the treatment center properly with a great dance. Ill lead you, so dont step on my feet and follow me! She said bravely, as usual, Raymond smiled.
***
They went up to the floor and began to dance. And eventually, the nobles who saw them could not help but talk.
He can dance well too?
I know right?
He wasnt just a good dancer too
Everyone had a blank look on their faces.
It wasnt just a good dance.
There were several couples dancing besides the two, but they only looked like background dancers around them.
Only the two figures were imprinted in their eyes.
Perhaps we were mistaken about something about Baron Penin.
Thats right. I just ignored it.
Raymonds perception changed once again in peoples minds.
Such a short but impressive dance ended and Raymond faced an unexpected figure.
It was Princess Sophia!
It is an honor to meet you again, Princess Sophia.
Raymond, who greeted according to etiquette, looked puzzled.
There was no particular reaction from her.
With her arms crossed, she was looking at him with only her eyes wrinkled.
What is this? If you have nothing to say, hurry up and go.
At first glance, her face looks full of irritation.
As Raymond was trying to sneak away to the side, she suddenly raised her voice.
What is it? Do you plan on leaving me in front of people?
Sorry, Im sorry.
If you have something to say, say it! Raymond exclaimed to himself.
Then, a speculation flashed across my mind.
Are you waiting for me to request a dance?
It was a story that was possible enough.
All because he is now full of charm!
However, Im scared to dance with Princess Sophia.
Raymond cried inwardly, but he couldnt help it. Its a crime to be full of charms.
Will you allow me the honor to dance with you?
At that moment, Princess Sophias face made a dramatic change.
Its as if she chewed on ginger.
Shee frowned and made an expression resembling a face as if she heard something she shouldnt have.
Did you ask me to dance with you?
Sorry, Im sorry.
Otherwise, why did you come to me?
Raymond tore his hair in his head/
At that time, Princess Sophia sighed softly.
I came here to tell you something. Leave the banquet hall right now.
What?
Princess Sophia continued speaking as she frowns.
Its a warning. My rascal big brother is after you. If you stay in the banquet hall longer, you will be in a big trouble.
***
Raymond had a hard face.
Your damn big brother.
It meant Seytil.
Seytil is after me? But why would she tell me that?
Princess Sophia spoke in a cold voice as if she had noticed the question.
I dont care what kind of trouble you are getting through, but Im telling you because I think it would be annoying if the healer who dared to treat me was humiliated in front of people. Dont get me wrong.
Ah Yes.
Anyway, dont be foolish and act wisely.
Since she finished warning Raymond, the princess turned her back as if to tell him to take care.
What should I do?
Raymond had a serious face.
It was clear that Seytil was plotting a big scheme to the extent that Sophia came and warned him.
Should I avoid it?
Raymond thought so, but he shook hishead soon.
No! Its a promotional opportunity!
If I miss today, I dont know when this opportunity will come again!
Besides, the atmosphere was good.
Thanks to his perfect etiquette and dance with Christine, quite a few people tried to meet him again. It seemed as if he could continue creating this positive atmosphere, he could have a huge publicity hit.
Raymond had a hunch.
Today was the time to bet!
Its a banquet hall anyway, so you cant try to kill anyone.
It would be a great disgrace at best.
Its a disgrace.
It was a routine for Raymond, the dirty illegitimate child.
Theres nothing more to fall since I am already in the bottom anyway!
Raymond, who was determined, hung out with the aristocracy and worked hard to promote medicine.
There was nothing difficult about the promotion.
Once the conversation was opened, the topic naturally flowed there.
There were many aristocrats who were curious about medicine.
Meanwhile, Seytil.
- Goddamn it.
He was huffing inside.
Contrary to Raymonds popularity, he was making a mess at the banquet.
No lady accepted his dance request.
Lady, would you like to dance?
I My legs hurt.
Lady, a dance.
My mom told me not to dance today.
Lady.
I have a disease that kills me when I dance.
Sophia, Im sorry, but can we please dance.
Are you crazy?
Although Seytil himself did not know, he was the most disliked man among the young ladies.
Hes a drunkard, ignorant, bad-tempered, violent, and strong.
There was no place to like. Moreover, the latest trend for guys in the society has been soft and intelligent men. Like Raymond.
I cant believe that Baron Penin was that kind of person.
Its nothing like rumors. He doesnt look like an illegitimate child at all.
The eyes of the youngsters looking at Raymond turned dim.
Raymond was literally a prince on a white horse jumping out of a fairy tale today. Instinctively, they couldnt help liking and admiring him.
Looking at his recent achievements, he seem to have outstanding skills.
I wish he wasnt an illegitimate child.
Seytil grittied his teeth again at the atmosphere of the banquet turning real sour for him, and sunshine and unicorns for Raymond.
We havent even started the real plan yet. Well see what you got, Raymond.
He set up an operation that would bring Raymond the worst possible disgrace.
It was time to bring up the plan.
He will fall into the abyss of disgrace.
Seytil climbed to the podium in front of the banquet hall.
The exciting music gradually subsided, making peoples eyes focus on him.
Ehem. ehem. I am Seytil, the fourth prince of the House of Houston. Thank you to all the distinguished guests for coming to the eve. People tilted their heads as they heard him. Is it already the time to give a speech commemorating the founding eve
A speech!
It was done every year on the eve of the festival.
Considering the nature of the eve where young nobles mainly gather, a famous young noble from the Kingdom of Houston is usually selected to give a commemorative speech.
Who was chosen this time?
Thats when people were wondering.
Seytil smiled and announced a name he had never thought of announcing ever in his life.
Come forward, Baron Penin.
!
You are the young aristocrat who recently named the Kingdom of Houston, so I will leave you with a commemorative speech.
An astonishment spread through the banquet hall.
How can you entrust such an honorable speech to your illegitimate brother Baron Penin?
It was absolutely unconventional.
No way.
Of course, Baron Penin has made several achievements recently. But this is.
Listening to the peoples humming, Seytil burst into extreme laughter inside of him.
Of course, Seytil didnt leave Raymond with a speech for the good.
Rather, it was a plan to humiliate Raymond at his worst! Theres no way he can make such an important speech properly. Especially when he wasnt prepared. He had to improvise a speech because he didnt give any words in advance.
Lets see what he would do with so many peoples attention focused on him.
