Chapter 1446: The Focus of the Ball

“It’s my great honor!” Mayers’ smile grew more brilliant after hearing that Zhang Tie had heard his name. He then clenched Zhang Tie’s hands and waved them forcefully as he said, “Your Excellency, if you like, you could also call my Hua name——Mai Aihua…”

Bai Suxian told Zhang Tie that the diplomatic ambassadors of foreign countries in Taixia Country always had a Hua name. Even those foreign imperial households who usually lived in Xuanyuan Hill had Hua names in order to Hua culture. It was popular for dignitaries and foreigners in Xuanyuan Hill to have a Hua name. However, Zhang Tie almost burst into laughter when he heard this touchy-feely Hua name of this “guinea pig”.

Rhesa Republic’s plenipotentiary diplomatic ambassador in Xuanyuan Hill was interesting, of course for Zhang Tie. Each person displayed his or her different side in front of different people. Perhaps this interesting guy would become as high, cold and forbidding as an iceberg in front of Milton the deputy speaker of Nordinham Commercial Federation.

“I prefer to call you Mayers. I lived in Waii Subcontinent when I was young. Therefore, it’s not difficult for me to remember your name. I might not adapt to it if I have to call your Hua name!” Zhang Tie said casually. When he saw a beautiful waiter coming over here, he waved his hand as he got a glass of wine from her tray.

“After knowing General Mushen’s meritorious services above the bank of Weishui River, His Majesty Sparta, also the national saint of Rhesa Republic once contacted me. He wanted me to extend his sublime thanks to you and your family members for what you’ve done for humans in the holy war on behalf of him and Rhesa Republic, to your parents who could cultivate such a great knight, to your family members for supporting you to contribute to the country at the risk of your life on the frontline at home and in your territory; your light of knight not only gloried Weishui River, but also Western Continent; your events and meritorious services inspire the human fighters and knights who were fighting demons in the frontline greatly; your existence bring hope and confidence to many people!”

Watching Mayers speaking so seriously, Zhang Tie felt pretty pleasant even though he knew that most of his words were diplomatic parlance and were overexaggerated. At least his words sounded much better than that of Fang Keyan who wanted him to expose the recipe of fiery oil to the public on behalf of people and righteousness.

The Rhesa Republic was a big nation that could match the Sacred Light Empire on the Western Continent. According to the tradition of Western Continent, like how people in Taixia Country called shadow knight hermit and heavenly knight immortal, any shadow knight could be called His Highness and any heavenly knight could be called His Majesty on the Western Continent. As Sparta the national saint of Rhesa Republic was a heavenly knight, it was not contradictory to the national system to call him His Majesty. It could be one of the features of the Western Continent. The national saint was the No. 1 knight of Rhesa Republic and the nominal supreme military commander of Rhesa Republic.

Zhang Tie touched Mayers’ glass as he said, “Please extend my sincere greeting to His Majesty Sparta on behalf of me!”

“I will convey it to him for sure!” Mayers looked at Zhang Tie with brilliant eyes as he added, “As an essential and just human power in the holy war, Rhesa Republic would like to be the solitary friend and partner of General Mushen on Western Continent. I believe that His Majesty Sparta would definitely share more topics with the general. If the general is convenient, we welcome the general to pay an official visit to the Rhesa Republic in any identity!”

“It’s said that Rhesa Republic is proficient in wine!” Zhang Tie said with a smile as he had a sip of wine, “After this national banquet, I would stay a few more days in Xuanyuan Hill. After that, I would return to Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory…”

If Mayers couldn’t understand such an explicit indication, he could go die. After hearing Zhang Tie’s words, Mayers’ eyes instantly turned bright like bulbs. He immediately said, “I’ve got some bottles of top-notch wine produced from Salvador Manor, Rhesa Republic in the embassy. I wonder whether the general is free tomorrow or not? If you’re free tomorrow, I could carry those wines to the general’s manor for your taste…”

“You’re welcome!”

Mayers felt pleasant as he had almost reached his target so easily. After looking around those counterparts who were casting covet at them, Mayers touched Zhang Tie’s glass once again before leaving him.

At this moment, if Mayers “occupied” Zhang Tie’s time all the way, he would definitely arouse the fury of the public.

Zhang Tie had already caught sight of Bai Suxian, who was surrounded by a group of women over 100 m away. The other wives of Zhang Tie were also being surrounded by ladies. The moment Zhang Tie smiled and was going to stride towards them, another guy in swallowtail had appeared in front of him with a big smile.

“Your Excellency Zhang Tie, I’m Copernicus the plenipotentiary diplomatic ambassador of German Empire on Western Continent in Xuanyuan Hill…”

…

It took Zhang Tie 20 minutes to only reach half of the distance between him and his wives. After Mayers left him, diplomatic ambassadors from Western Continent came for him one after another like making a pilgrimage.

Each foreign diplomatic ambassador in Xuanyuan Hill only took Zhang Tie’s 1-2 minutes. However, as there were so many foreign diplomatic ambassadors, he felt overwhelmed.

The moment the diplomatic ambassador of Barbarian Federation on the Western Continent left him, another man had walked over here with a big smile. Right then, Zhang Tie saw a woman smiling at him in a bizarre way on one side of the ball, with a glass of wine in hand.

“Your Excellency, Zhang Tie, it’s my great honor to see you, I’m…”

“Excuse me…”

Zhang Tie became hesitant for a second before revealing a smile. After putting down his glass, he dropped off that man who had come to his front. He then turned around and strode towards that woman.

Under the amazed gaze of all the others, Zhang Tie passed by a corridor and the crowd with a smile. After coming to the side of that woman, he extended his sincerity to that woman like what a gentleman usually did, “Could I invite the beautiful flower of knights of Francia Empire to have a dance?”

Watching Zhang Tie coming over, Cecilia revealed a smile too. She then put down her glass and stretched out a hand towards Zhang Tie before saying, “It’s my pleasure!”

Zhang Tie then held her hand and came to the ball with her before having an elegant Waltz.

There was a philharmonic society beside the ball. Only 4-5 groups of people were dancing in the ball. The moment Zhang Tie and Cecilia entered the ball, they had become the focus; however, they didn’t care about others’ eye light at all.

Like comrades-in-arms who had fought demons together in the earth-element realm, when they encountered each other again after a long time, of course, they would never care about others’ eyesight.

“I almost failed to recognize you…” Zhang Tie told Cecilia.

“Do you think that I have to wear armor and helmet? I could absolutely treat your words as discrimination on a woman!” Cecilia smiled as she looked at Zhang Tie for a few more seconds seriously and said, “You look much more handsome and lovable than Cui Li. No wonder so many women like you…”

Zhang Tie let out a sigh, “Cecilia, if you’ve said so a few years earlier, I would never let Bolam grab you, the beautiful flower of knights of Francia Empire, away so easily even at the risk of being caught by the supreme court! Oh, would Bolam feel jealous of me after knowing that I danced with her wife here?”

“It’s not late…” Cecilia raised her mouth corners.

“Come on. I’m born to be timid. I dare never sleep with others’ wives!” Zhang Tie said with a sad look in exchange for Cecilia’s smile.

“How could a divine dominator who could kill a heavenly demon knight by striking him 9 times with a rode be timid on such an issue? Do you know how Bolam talks about you? He said you’re absolutely an existence for destroying other knights’ confidence!”

“Is Bolam good? When I contacted him last time, he said he had already become a father. I’ve not congratulated you yet!”

“We’re both fine!” Cecilia replied as she lowered her head to look at the collar of her dress and said bashfully, “But I indeed wore less this time as this bobtail’s collar is too low. If not dress like this, the ambassador of Francia Empire would never bring me to this national banquet…”

“You’ve been assigned to Xuanyuan Hill?”

“I came here 3 days ago. Guess what I’m here for?” Cecilia covered her smile as she looked straight into Zhang Tie’s eyes seriously.

“Fiery oil?”

“The battle situation of Taixia Country in Western Theater of Operations attracts the attention of so many countries. Everybody is paying heed to the movement of the army of Taixia Country and knows that fiery-oil weapons and the air cavalries of Taixia Country could defend ground demon forces and air demon corps. Any human country that doesn’t want to wait for extermination is trying their best to get fiery oil! As I know you, I proposed to come here to meet you…” Cecilia sighed too before looking straight into Zhang Tie’s eyes, saying, “Francia Empire needs your help. Francia could pay everything within its reach for fiery oil!”
