“It’s nothing,” Rennes waved his hand and said indifferently.
“I don’t have enough time to go out and get better materials, so I can only use an angel’s feather. It’s at the level of an Archmage, so it’s barely passable. This is my New Year’s gift for you,” Rennes said with some regret.
His expression felt extremely sarcastic to Debbie.
A material at the level of an Archmage, and an angel’s feather at that, and it was only barely passable? Then what are the things she had laid on the table?
When Debbie saw her own presents, she wished she could smash them all to pieces now.
She was trying to think of an excuse to remove those things from the table.
Of course, Rennes noticed Debbie’s expression. He pointed at the three boxes on the table and pretended not to know where they come from. “Who put these trash here? Don’t you know the banquet is about to begin? Hurry up and take them away!”
“They are indeed unpresentable trash. I’ve really made a fool of myself,” Debbie forced a smile and quickly took over the conversation, trying to find a way out for herself.
So this was Rennes?
So this was the man who had defeated the Raytheon Empire, the man who had come from the Abyss.
To be able to give away an item like that so easily. It was indeed not something an ordinary person could do.
Debbie suppressed her anger as she sized up Rennes’ handsome face, her eyes filled with wariness.
“Who’s our guest, Lifa?” Rennes asked Lifa with a smile.
“This is my sister, Debbie, also the wife of the Third Prince of the Golden Lion Empire,” Lifa naturally knew that Rennes was there to help him out.
“Oh, so you’re Lifa’s sister. I heard when I was in the corridor that you haven’t been back to the Noah Kingdom for a long time, so you’re worried that you might not get used to the food here anymore? It just so happens that the Noah Kingdom has just developed a new kind of food – a magic food! I’m sure you’ve never had it before!”
Rennes smiled at Debbie, then clapped his hands.
The clap resounded throughout the dining hall.
After that, the maidservants carried out exquisite plates that were covered with iron lids.
The covers were lifted to reveal the food sitting on the plates.
Potato-related dishes occupied nearly a third of the space on the long dining table.
Debbie smelled a unique fragrance coming from the shredded potatoes, stewed beef with potatoes, and the other potato dishes. Because Debbie was a level-3 mage, she could also sense some magic power surging in them.
She finally believed about the magic food Rennes had mentioned, and was actually looking forward to it.
She could not wait to cut into a piece of potato with her fork and knife right away.
However, because not all the dishes had been uncovered yet, she was too embarrassed to reach out.
Finally, the dishes were all served, and all the lids were uncovered.
At that moment, Trish slowly walked in with Shirley from outside the dining hall.
Now, they could finally eat. Debbie impatiently picked up the knife and fork and reached for the beef stew with potatoes.
“Wait, use this!” Lifa handed her a strange-looking pair of wooden sticks.
Debbie was a little puzzled, but when she saw Rennes picking up the potatoes with his pair of sticks, she understood.
She reached for the chopsticks to try them.
But the next moment, the chopsticks that should have been in her hand disappeared.
A tall woman dressed in white appeared beside her. She had taken the chopsticks and, imitating Rennes’ actions, started to taste the dishes with relish.
“Mmm, not bad!” Shirley swallowed a piece of potato and praised.
This time, Debbie could not hold her anger in anymore.
She had not eaten anything appetizing since she left on her trip from the Golden Lion Empire up north.
Now, she could finally eat a good meal. The magic food was worthy of her status too.
But to her surprise, her food was snatched away by someone else.
She had seen the woman in white walking in behind Trish, who was wearing a maid’s outfit, so she naturally treated the woman as someone unimportant.
Besides, if she was an important person, Lifa would have introduced her already.
Facing the woman who had stolen her food, a mocking expression appeared on Debbie’s face. She said with arrogance, “How can you let someone this rude into the palace, Lifa? Can’t she see that her master and guests haven’t started eating yet? How dare she?”
As soon as she finished saying that, before the arrogance had even disappeared from her face, Debbie suddenly felt a gust of wind rushing towards her.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, Debbie was slapped off her chair by Shirley.
“Ahhh!” Debbie’s face instantly turned red and swollen, and blood flowed non-stop out of her nose and mouth. She wailed, “Guards! Kill this b*tch!”
Her voice was loud and miserable, but no one dared to come forward.
Lifa initially felt that it was inappropriate, but when she saw Rennes eagerly watching the drama unfold, she gradually settled back down in her seat.
“She’s an arrogant woman indeed. So straightforward.”
Rennes did not expect Shirley to be so unhesitant. He nodded approvingly.
Debbie wailed for a period of time. When she saw that no one was paying her any heed, she climbed up unsteadily from the floor, gently held her left cheek and told Shirley, “I’m the wife of the Third Prince of the Golden Lion Empire. If I tell the Third Prince about what happened, you’re dead!”
“Haha!” As if she had heard something really funny, Shirley actually laughed out loud.
She had not even used that much strength just now. If she had used the normal strength of an angel to deal with a level 3 mage, Debbie would be dead right now.
The reason she had slapped Debbie was because she could not stand the arrogance on the woman’s face.
Even Shirley herself did not dare to show such an arrogant attitude to Rennes. Who did the woman think she was?
Shirley found Debbie’s threat pretty funny. She told Debbie calmly, “I’m the Captain of the Second War Angel Brigade under the command of the Queen of Angels.
“If your Golden Lion Empire wish to punish me, they can come look for me at the Paradise Islands. Go back and tell your Third Prince. Let’s hope he doesn’t wet his pants when he hears about this.”
The Queen of Angels?
War angel captain?
The two simple terms pummeled Debbie’s heart like two heavy hammers.
Although she was born in the Noah Kingdom, she had married the Third Prince of the Golden Lion Empire for some time now, so she naturally understood what the two terms meant and what they signified.
Simply put, if Shirley was visiting the Golden Lion Empire, the Emperor had to receive her personally. Only he could be considered as having a high enough status to meet with Shirley, and he only barely qualified.
And Shirley was just an angel captain. Imagine if it was an Archangel, or the Queen of Angels herself.
Debbie’s face was filled with fear and despair. She never expected that the woman in white was actually an angel.
She suddenly recalled the angel feather from before.
She should have made the connection. If she had known earlier, those things would not have happened.
She had taken a slap for nothing. If the Third Prince knew that he had offended an angel captain, he would definitely divorce her.
She must kneel down and beg for her forgiveness. She must make sure the angel forgave her.
