"It's my honor!" After hearing that Zhang Tie had heard about his name, Mayers revealed a more brilliant smile as he tightly held Zhang Tie's hands and shook them forcefully, saying, "Your Excellency, if you like, you could also call me by my Hua name. My Hua name is Mai Aihua …"
Zhang Tie was told by Bai Suxian that all the diplomatic envoys of other countries in Taixia Country liked to give themselves Hua names. Those imperial households and nobles who always lived in Xuanyuan Hill also liked to give themselves Hua names. It was not strange for foreigners to give themselves Hua names in Xuanyuan Hill. However, after hearing such an explicit Hua name given by this guy who smiled like a guinea pig, Zhang Tie almost burst out into laughter.
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem The plenipotentiary diplomatic ambassador of Rhesa Republic in Xuanyuan Hill was an interesting guy. Of course, he was only interesting to Zhang Tie. Everyone showed different looks in front of different people. Perhaps in front of others such as Milton, the deputy speaker of Nordinham Commercial Federation, this interesting guy would be as cold and unreachable as an iceberg.
"Forget it, I will call you Mayers. As I've lived in Waii Sub-continent, your name is not a problem for me. If I call you by your Hua name, I will feel uncomfortable!" Zhang Tie said casually. At the sight of a beautiful waiter serving drinks, Zhang Tie waved his hand and took a glass of red wine from the tray in the waiter's hand.
"After His Majesty Spartax, the national saint of Rhesa Republic, knew about General Mushen's meritorious deeds at Weishui River, he had contacted me and told me to express my high respect to you and your family members on behalf of His Majesty Spartax and Rhesa Republic when I meet you. Thanks for what you've done for humans in the holy war; thanks for your parents who could cultivate such a great knight like you; thanks for your family members who could support you in the toughest frontline at home and in your territory. Your knight's light at the bank of Weishui River not only brightened Weishui River, but also the entire Western Continent. Your deeds and meritorious deeds are a great inspiration for all the human fighters and knights fighting demons in the frontline. Your existence brings hope and confidence to many people!"
Mayers said with a serious look. Even though he knew that this diplomatic ambassador's words were exaggerated, Zhang Tie still felt comfortable. At least, he felt much better than Fang Keyan who always asked him to make secrets with fiery oil on behalf of the commoners and the righteous forces in the human world.
Rhesa Republic was a big country that could match Sacred Light Empire on the Western Continent. It was a republic. According to the tradition of the Western Continent, like how shadow knights were called immortals and heavenly knights were called immortals in Taixia Country, in the Western Continent, any shadow knight could be called His Majesty while heavenly knights were called His Majesty. As the national saint of Rhesa Republic, Spartax was a heavenly knight and was called His Majesty. This was not contradictory to the national system of Rhesa Republic. It could be regarded as a feature of the Western Continent. The national saint was not only the No. 1 knight of Rhesa Republic but also the supreme military commander of this country.
Zhang Tie touched Mayers' glass as he said, "Please extend my sincere greetings to His Majesty Spartax for me!"
"I will definitely convey it to him!" Mayers watched Zhang Tie with gleaming eyes as he said, "As one of the righteous and backbone forces of humans in the holy war, Rhesa Republic would like to be the firmest friend and partner of General Mushen on the Western Continent. I believe that His Majesty Spartax must have many common topics with General. If it's convenient for General, we welcome General to visit Rhesa Republic in any capacity!"
"It's said that the wine of Rhesa Republic tastes good!" Zhang Tie said with a smile as he had a sip of the wine in his glass, "After this national banquet, I will stay in Xuanyuan Hill for a couple of days before returning to Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory …"
If Mayers still couldn't understand Zhang Tie's hint, he might as well buy a piece of beancurd and kill himself. Mayers' eyes turned as bright as light bulbs. Soon after Zhang Tie finished his words, he added, "I've collected some top wines produced by Salvador Manor of Rhesa Republic in the embassy. I wonder whether General is free tomorrow? I could take them to your mansion for a taste …"
"You're welcome!"
Mayers felt pretty satisfied as he had easily achieved his target. After throwing a glance at those peers who were casting covetous glances at them, he touched Zhang Tie's glass once again before leaving Zhang Tie's side.
If Mayers always "occupied" Zhang Tie's time on this occasion, he would definitely arouse the public's fury.
Zhang Tie had already seen Bai Suxian being surrounded by a group of women over 100 steps away from him. Linda, Beverly and Fire-Dragon were also surrounded by a group of noblewomen. With a smile, Zhang Tie was going to walk over there. However, soon after he took two steps, another guy in swallowtail had appeared in front of Zhang Tie with a smile.
"Your Excellency Zhang Tie, I'm Guccaini, the plenipotentiary foreign minister of Germanic Empire on the Western Continent in Xuanyuan Hill …"
…
Zhang Tie had already caught sight of Bai Suxian, Beverly and Fire-Dragon. However, it took Zhang Tie 20 minutes to cover half of the distance. After Mayers left, all the diplomatic envoys and foreign ministers from the Western Continent had surrounded Zhang Tie like making a pilgrimage. Soon after the first one left, the second one had interrupted Zhang Tie and wanted to talk with Zhang Tie.
Being surrounded by so many people, even though each of them only occupied Zhang Tie a couple of minutes, Zhang Tie still felt like being in a mud and couldn't move a single step in the cocktail party.
Soon after the diplomatic ambassador of Western Continent Barbarian Federation left, another man caught a chance and walked over here with a smile. However, after glancing around, Zhang Tie caught sight of a woman who was watching him with a strange smile on the edge of a dance floor with a glass of wine in her hand at 3 o 'clock direction in the rear palace.
"Your Excellency Zhang Tie, nice to meet you. I'm …"
"Excuse me …"
At the sight of that person, Zhang Tie became faintly stunned. Closely after that, he revealed a smile as he put down his glass and left that man in front of him. Closely after that, he turned around and strode towards that woman.
Under the amazed gaze of all the others, Zhang Tie passed by the crowd and a winding corridor with a smile and strode to the side of that woman. After that, he greeted that woman with a gentleman's etiquette, "I wonder whether I have the honor to invite the beautiful flower of knights of Francia Empire to dance with me?"
At the sight of Zhang Tie, Cecilia also revealed a smile as she put down her glass and reached out one hand towards Zhang Tie, "I'd love to!"
Zhang Tie then held Cecilia's hand and entered the dance floor on one side with her. Closely after that, they started a melodious waltz.
There was an orchestra on one side of the dance floor. There were only 4-5 teams of dancers on the dance floor. The moment Zhang Tie and Cecilia entered the dance floor, they had become the focus of all the onlookers. However, they didn't care about the onlookers' eye light at all.
As a knight comrade-in-arms who had adventured and fought demons together in the Earth-elements Realm, they didn't care about the others' eye light at all when they met each other again on such an occasion.
"I almost didn't recognize you in your ceremonial robe …" Zhang Tie told Cecilia.
"Don't tell me you think I have to wear armor to look good? I can totally interpret your words as discrimination against women!" Cecilia replied with a smile. After that, she threw a few glances at Zhang Tie seriously, "You look much more handsome and lovable than that when you disguised as Cui LI. No wonder so many women like you …"
Zhang Tie let out a sigh, "Cecilia, if you said that a few years ago, when in the Earth-elements Realm, I would expose my real look even if I was wanted by the Supreme Court. I would never allow Bolam to pick off the flower of knights of our beautiful Francia Empire so easily! Oh, would Bolam be jealous if he knew that I hugged his beautiful wife and danced with her? "
"It's not too late …" Cecilia raised her mouth corners.
"Forget it, I'm born timid. I dare not hit on someone else's wife!" Zhang Tie said with a bitter look, causing Cecilia's raised mouth corners to reveal a big smile at once.
"How could a divine dominator who could kill a heavenly demon knight by striking it 9 times be timid? Do you know what Bolam said about you? He said that people like you exist to destroy the confidence of other knights! "
"How's Bolam doing? When I contacted him last time, Bolam told me that he's already a father. I've not congratulated you yet!"
"Bolam and I are fine!" As she danced with Zhang Tie, Cecilia lowered her head and looked at her clothes as she said in a faintly bashful manner, "However, I rarely wear evening dress. The chest of this evening dress is a bit low. I had it made by a tailor after coming to Xuanyuan Hill. It's convenient for men to feast their eyes on it. However, if I didn't wear it today, the ambassador of Francia in Xuanyuan Hill would never bring me to attend this national banquet …"
"You've been transferred to Xuanyuan Hill?"
"I came to Xuanyuan Hill 3 days ago. Can you guess why I'm here?" Cecilia hid her smile as she gazed into Zhang Tie's eyes seriously.
"Fiery oil?"
"The battle situation in the Western Theater of Operations of Taixia Country attracts the attention of numerous countries. Everybody is paying attention to the movements of the army of Taixia Country. As they know that fiery oil weapons and air cavalries of Taixia Country could resist the ground and air corps of demons, all the countries on continents and subcontinents who don't want to resign themselves to their doom could do that! Because I know you, I requested to meet you in Xuanyuan Hill … "Cecilia let out a sigh too. Closely after that, she looked straight into Zhang Tie's eyes and said," Francia Empire needs your help. Francia could pay any price for Fiery Oil! "
