Chapter 180 Pretend To Be Drunk And Try To Take Down Princess Silver Wolf
Upon hearing the Minister of Military Affairs announce his name, Rennes immediately stepped forward and walked towards Emperor Kukaen.
At this moment, all eyes in the Central Council Chamber converged on Rennes, filled with envy.
There was no way around it. The rewards that Rennes received were incredibly generous.
You see, in the vast Kukaen Empire, there were less than fifteen dukes. One can imagine the preciousness of this ducal position.
This was not only an honorary title, but also represented immense privileges and benefits.
In addition to the legendary equipment, Winter's Wrath, and ten pieces of epic-level equipment.
It directly turned the previous military nobles into dust.
Amidst the envious gazes of everyone, Rennes received the noble medal and magical scroll representing the ducal position from Emperor Kukaen.
As for the legendary weapon, Winter's Wrath, and the ten pieces of epic equipment.
They would be delivered by the palace guards after the reward ceremony.
Rennes would express his gratitude to Emperor Kukaen for his reward with some flattering words.
At the same time, he would demonstrate his loyalty to the empire.
Afterwards, Rennes returned to his original position with a satisfied smile.
Ten minutes later.
All the imperial nobles who have made great contributions have been rewarded and honored.
Next is the victory celebration banquet.
This banquet is to celebrate the victory of the war and the annihilation of the invading orc army.
At the banquet,
Many people deliberately approached Rennes to strike up a conversation.
Attempting to establish a relationship with him, the newly appointed duke.
Faced with the numerous noble alliances and attempts to win him over,
Rennes completely refused with a smile.
With the rapid improvement of his cultivation, his vision has also become higher.
Ordinary women,
He simply doesn't look at them.
And with his current strength and status, marriage alliances are not necessary.
After all,
Marriage is about mutual benefits.
But these nobles clearly don't have what he needs.
The banquet ended.
Rennes quickly obtained the legendary equipment, "Winter's Wrath," and the ten pieces of epic equipment from the palace guards.
After receiving all the rewards,
He had no intention of staying in the Kukane Palace for long.
He directly set off on the journey home with his griffin knights.
Returned to the city of Angelo through a long-distance teleportation array.
Rennes and his group rode flying mounts and flew towards the province of Lance.
On the way, they hurriedly traveled.
With nothing to do.
Rennes took out the legendary equipment bestowed by Emperor Kukarn, the Fury of Winter.
He cast a five-ring arcane spell on it - the magic item identification spell.
[Fury of Winter (Legendary Ring)]
[Passive Effects]:
Frost Immunity (The wearer gains strong resistance to ice and is immune to ice magic attacks of the seventh ring and above).
Endless Winter (When using ice magic, the power is increased fivefold).
Eternal Freeze (Adds a freezing effect to ice magic, with a certain probability of freezing the opponent when using ice magic attacks).
[Triggerable Magic]:
Extreme Blizzard (Seventh ring magic, summons several blizzards with extremely low temperatures to strike the surrounding area within a five-mile radius).
Absolute Zero Ray (Seventh ring magic, summons an absolute zero temperature ray to attack the enemy, causing massive ice damage).
Fury of Winter (Ninth ring magic, creates an absolute zero temperature area in the designated area, causing any matter within the space to be frozen and "disintegrated" into the most primitive particles. Note: Using this magic will cause the equipment to overload and break. Please use with caution).
I have to say.
The attributes of this legendary equipment are very good.
Although it's not a top-tier item.
It is definitely a fine piece among legendary equipment.
"That Emperor is quite generous," Rennes thought with some surprise.
I thought that the legendary equipment that could be taken out as a reward would have mostly ordinary attributes.
Who would have thought that it would unexpectedly be quite good.
This instantly made his impression of Emperor Kukarn even better.
He put on this legendary equipment on his left ring finger.
With a joyful mood, Rennes continued to fly towards the province of Lance.
Three days later.
Rennes successfully returned to the Habs Manor.
Seeing her husband return, the wives hurriedly came out to welcome him.
To welcome Rennes back and help him freshen up.
"My dear, how was your harvest this time in the imperial capital?" Tina couldn't help but ask.
Janice and others also looked at him curiously.
"The harvest was quite big!" Rennes didn't hide anything.
He directly recounted the rewards given to him by Emperor Kukarn.
Upon hearing that her husband became a duke of the empire.
And also obtained a legendary equipment and ten epic-level equipment.
Janice and others were also extremely excited.
"This matter must be celebrated properly."
After coming back to their senses, Janice and others all spoke up.
This is a huge joyous occasion!
With these rewards, the future of the Habs family will surely be even brighter.
The status and power can be further elevated.
Rennes also expressed agreement with the wives' ideas.
This matter indeed deserves a proper celebration.
After reaching a consensus.
The Habus family immediately began preparing for the celebration in a busy and orderly manner.
Arranging the venue, purchasing high-end drinks, sending out invitations, and so on...
However.
Rennes did not intervene too much in these trivial matters.
He entrusted everything to Jenny and others to handle.
He dealt with the affairs of the territory every day and trained his exclusive maid, Melita.
He lived a comfortable life.
During this process.
Rennes was surprised to find that this maid was becoming more and more cooperative with him.
Completely without the previous resistance.
"Could it be that this Silver Wolf Princess has completely 'come to her senses'?"
Thinking of this.
Rennes suddenly felt a burst of heat.
If that's the case.
He would soon be able to have this Silver Wolf Princess bear his child.
Based on her own qualifications.
Perhaps she could give birth to a second diamond-level heir for him.
However.
In order to prevent himself from guessing wrong and ruining his previous efforts, Rennes did not impulsively make a move.
...Flowers please...
Instead, he silently waited for an opportunity.
Half a month later.
A grand celebration was held in the Habus Manor.
Nobles from the Lance Province all came.
Even nobles from surrounding provinces who did not receive invitations also came in droves.
Obviously.
Everyone wanted to get close to Rennes, this newly appointed Imperial Duke.
Originally, it was expected to entertain over three hundred people.
But the number of people who came to the banquet directly exceeded a thousand.
Although most of these people did not receive invitations.
But they came from afar to offer blessings and gifts.
Rennes couldn't directly drive them away.
There was no other way.
He had to temporarily expand the banquet venue to accommodate these unexpected guests.
As for drinks and food, there was no need to worry.
To prevent any problems, they had already prepared several times the amount.
There was more than enough to entertain the people present.
This banquet lasted for a full day and night.
As the absolute protagonist of this celebration banquet, Rennes has been toasted by everyone.
He drank a lot.
In addition, these drinks are all magic drinks brewed from magic plants, very intoxicating.
Rennes is also drunk.
All the intoxicated guests were arranged in the guest rooms of the mansion.
With the support of the exclusive maid Melita.
Rennes stumbled towards his own room.
His body pressed against Melita's.
Regarding this.
Melita couldn't help but feel speechless.
Rennes is a legendary peak-level powerhouse.
He is only one step away from the realm of demigods.
If he didn't want to get drunk, these drinks would have no effect on him at all.
In fact, even if he is drunk.
A powerhouse like Rennes can dispel all the alcohol in his body with a single thought.
However.
Rennes just didn't do that.
"This guy is definitely doing it on purpose."
Melita was very sure in her heart.
As for why.
Obviously, it was to take advantage of her.
During the support process.
This guy had close contact with her, and she didn't know how much advantage he took.
However.
Even if Melita knew that Rennes was pretending, she still didn't expose him.
In case this master gets angry and humiliated, she would suffer even more 'terrifying' punishment.
After spending more than ten minutes.
Melita successfully sent Rennes back to his room.
Helped Rennes onto the bed.
Tucked in his shoes, socks, and blanket.
"Master, rest well."
Melita naturally spoke.
She has been calling her that for almost a year.
It has become very natural.
Just as Melita was about to leave and return to her own room.
Rennes, who seemed drunk, suddenly reached out and grabbed Melita's small hand.
"Ah!"
Being suddenly attacked, Melita instinctively let out a cry.
And then.
Before she could react, she was pulled into the bed.
Not even two minutes passed.
A beautiful symphony began to play in the room...
