“Thank you for your praises, City Lord. Please come in!” Norton was very happy to hear his great-grandson being praised by the City Lord. The City Lord being able to attend his family’s banquet in person was a great honor for the Nicholas family clan. Then, a group of people followed the City Lord into the hall like stars surrounding the moon. The City Lord sat in the main seat while the rest sat beside him.

After the City Lord had sat down, the banquet officially began. Everyone was very happy. With the City Lord around, Maril did not dare to say anything excessive. The entire banquet was harmonious.

While they were chatting happily, City Lord Lein suddenly looked outside the door and said, “Looks like your family has another distinguished guest!”

“Eh? Another distinguished guest? What distinguished guest?”

After hearing the City Lord’s words, Norton, Maril, and Collin were all stunned. Who exactly was this person whom the City Lord had attached so much importance to?

“An esteemed guest from the Sky Blue Magic Academy has arrived!”

At this moment, a loud voice suddenly sounded from outside. Instantly, everyone understood who the distinguished guest the City Lord had spoken of was. It turned out to be a distinguished guest from the Sky Blue Magic Academy.

It was no wonder that even the City Lord, who was a Great Archmage, had to take this seriously. It was because Lein Dupont was just one Great Archmage, but in the whole Sky Blue Magic Academy, there were countless Great Archmagis, and there were even Divine Magi in command. It was even rumored that there were existences that surpassed the Divine Magi in the Sky Blue Magic Academy. However, it was not known if this was true.

In their Northern Empire, there were a total of four magic academies, and their Sky Blue Magic Academy was ranked second. These were some of the rankings given by the outside world. In reality, the four magic academies would not submit to one another. Their strengths were unfathomable. Even in the entire Magic Martial Continent, their existences were not to be underestimated.

The most critical thing was that Winterfrost happened to be in the sphere of influence of the Sky Blue Magic Academy. Otherwise, the Sky Blue Magic Academy would not have come to Winterfrost to enroll students.

Therefore, if he wanted his position as the City Lord of Winterfrost to be secure, he would have to maintain a good relationship with the Sky Blue Magic Academy. Otherwise, if he had made the Sky Blue Magic Academy unhappy, he would not be able to hold on to his position as the City Lord.

Four young people had walked in, two men and two women. The men were handsome while the women were pretty. The young lady at the front was around seventeen or eighteen years old. She was petite with fair skin and long golden hair. She was as beautiful as a fairy.

At this moment, the three family heads and the City Lord had walked to the entrance of the hall to welcome them.

Upon seeing them, that young lady immediately rushed over to Colin Campbell and hugged him. She said sweetly, “Grandpa, I miss you so much.”

“Okay, okay, okay. Grandpa misses you too.” Colin Campbell, who was very pleased, smiled as he spoke happily.

This girl was Serena Campbell, the princess of the Campbell family clan and Ron’s fiancée.

Colin Campbell looked at Serena and said happily, “Alright, don’t make a scene. The City Lord and the two family heads are here. Come and greet them.”

Then, Serena immediately greeted the City Lord, Norton, and Maril. They naturally returned the greeting; they could not treat her like an ordinary junior.

Serena had even introduced the three persons who had come with her. They were all top students of the Sky Blue Magic Academy, and would definitely be the cream of the crop in the future. Their status would definitely not be lower than theirs, so every one of them was very respectful. Then, Norton invited them to sit in the VIP seats in the main hall.

Serena searched the crowd and quickly found the person she was looking for. She saw that Ron was also staring at her intently. Immediately Serena blushed. Ron nodded slightly, indicating that they could talk later. Only then did Serena withdraw her gaze.

And all of this was seen by someone who had come with Serena. This person was dressed in fiery red clothes, and even his hair was fiery red. He looked like a man made of fire. This person glanced coldly at Ron, a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.

At this time, the servants had already replaced the dishes on the main table with new ones. They had also added four chairs, prepared just for the four people from the Sky Blue Magic Academy. After they had sat down, they immediately became the focus of the entire banquet. Even the City Lord deliberately played down his influence to make these four the center of attention.

Serena had once again introduced the four people in detail. The other lady was called Fiona Clinton, the flame-like man was called Howen Lincoln, and the other man was called Klein. When she introduced Howen Lincoln, Ron glanced at him and then lowered his head to drink his tea. He clearly remembered this person. Two years ago, when the Sky Blue Magic Academy came to recruit students, he was one of the people in charge, and he was also the person who had mocked Ron.

After the introduction, Colin Campbell asked Serena about her time at the Sky Blue Magic Academy. Serena also continued to talk about many interesting things in the academy. The Sky Blue Magic Academy could be said to be a place that all those who were present yearned to be in, so they naturally listened with fascination and envy, wishing they were also a member of the academy.

However, neither Colin Campbell nor Norton mentioned the engagement between Serena and Ron. It was not appropriate to talk about it presently. After all, this was a private matter between their two families. Even if there was any change of plans, they would have to wait till the two families were alone to discuss this. However, while they had not brought it up, there was someone who could not resist speaking about it. This person was none other than Howen, who disliked Ron.

Howen said, “Actually, this time we had left the academy not just for the academy’s mission, but also for something else. My teacher had instructed me to handle it properly. This matter is related to the Nicholas family clan.” After speaking, Howen looked at Norton.

“Something to do with our family? What is it?”

Norton had paused for a moment before he asked. However, he felt uneasy and even glanced at Ron, worried.

Howen said directly, “I heard that someone in your family is engaged to my junior, Serena?”

Hearing Howen’s words, everyone present was stunned. Then, they pricked up their ears and listened carefully. They had all sensed that a good show was about to start.

Before Norton could say anything, Serena stood up and said, “Senior, this is my private matter. You don’t have to worry about it.”

“This is something the teacher had instructed me to do. I cannot leave it alone,” said Howen.

At the mention of her teacher, Serena dared not speak anymore.. Then, Howen continued to look toward Norton.
