The noblewomen were at the bottom of the hierarchy within the entire dinner circle.
Even among noblewomen, there were differences in status, but they still maintained superficial respect for each other.
Because the noblewomen who could appear at the dinner party all had some background, whether more or less.
Secondly, no one knew which noblewoman the host of this dinner party would fancy.
Once she climbed up, her status would change overnight.
Although she would still be a noblewoman, she would definitely become the most dazzling existence in the entire noblewoman circle in a short time, and no one would dare to offend her.
So, at this moment, Cha Cha, dressed in ordinary clothes, entered the dinner party with a ragged merchant caravan.
They instantly deemed her a young girl with no background, not even as good as a slave.
The reason for such hostility was, firstly, because Cha Cha was young and beautiful, and secondly, they did not want to see people of low status eating at the same table as them.
Cha Cha, facing the siege of a group of noblewomen, was instantly scared and flustered.
Merchant John quickly stepped forward, awkwardly bowing to these noblewomen in the manner of gentlemen.
"Respected ladies, why do you want us to leave? We are also guests invited by the Divine Emissary."
Seeing Merchant John lower his stance, the noblewomen not only did not respond politely but instead looked at Merchant John with haughty, upturned noses.
"Hmph, a group of impolite beggars, this is not a place where you can appear. If you don't want to die, get out quickly."
"Guards! Guards! What are you doing? How can you let these beggars appear here and dirty the dinner party?"
"Look at that person's greedy eyes, they must have never seen such delicious food in their life."
"Beggars are beggars, do they think they are princesses?"
"Thump-thump-thump ~"
A team of heavy sword knights in full armor appeared at the banquet.
Tonight's banquet was for the sake of the Divine Emissary's face; no mistakes could be made.
The heavy sword knights, like a steel torrent, formed a stark contrast with the plump noblewomen.
The noblewomen's eyes gleamed with infatuation for these strong heavy sword knights.
A Knight who can wear full armor and wield a heavy sword must have a very strong physique.
The noblewomen looked at the backs of the Knights, their imaginations running wild, some even blushing slightly, lost in thought.
The Knight Captain looked at the unremarkable Merchant John, then at the clothes he was wearing, finding it difficult to associate him with nobility.
Instead, he looked a bit like a pirate.
If it were peacetime, the Knight Captain would not have hesitated at all and would have directly taken the person out.
Now, he politely stared at Merchant John and said, "Sir, do you have an invitation letter from the Earl?"
The Earl he spoke of was naturally Earl Jonaf.
Merchant John shook his head and said, "No."
After all, they knew about the dinner party because their Dragon companions told them.
When they were on Berk Island, not only did the people of the merchant caravan learn new languages and new scripts, but the Dragons also learned with them.
This way, people and Dragons could be more intimate and harmonious, and communicate better.
At the same time, when transmitting messages between the merchant caravan and Berk Island, there was no need to worry about leaks.
So, the news of the dinner party was that a Night Fury roared at the Dragons of the merchant caravan, and then the Dragons of the merchant caravan told them the news.
The guards at the gate let them in because they didn't consider them part of a merchant guild; they simply thought they were farmers delivering ham and vegetables, so they didn't check for invitation letters at all.
At this moment, after the Knight Captain learned that Merchant John had no invitation letter, he breathed a sigh of relief.
But he still didn't dare to make a move.
The main reason was that the heavy swords were too long; if they were to act, they would certainly damage the dinnerware at the banquet, causing a mess.
In that case, the Divine Emissary's dinner party would be ruined.
Even if they died to atone for their sins, it would not appease the Earl's wrath, and they would have no face to see the Divine Emissary.
The Knight Captain suppressed the anger in his heart but still said sternly, "Sir, please leave. You are not welcome here."
Merchant John quickly explained, "Although we do not have an invitation letter from the Earl, we were invited by the Divine Emissary to attend the dinner party."
"Hahaha, today I have heard the funniest joke of my life."
"The Divine Emissary would invite you beggars to attend the dinner party? Are you still not awake?"
"This Knight, you've seen it, they have no invitation letter. How can you let these beggars dirty the Divine Emissary's dinner party? Please, Knight, throw them out."
Hearing that they were about to act, the Dragon Riders of the merchant caravan were naturally not intimidated.
Whether in individual combat or group combat, they had undergone training on Bok Island.
How to deal with, kill, or capture heavy armored Knights was also a routine training subject.
Even bare-handed, they could capture these heavy armored Knights alive.
Moreover, now they only needed a whistle to summon their Dragon companions.
At that time, destroying this place would not be a problem at all.
Merchant John quickly stopped the Dragon Riders of the merchant caravan and said, "Don't do anything, don't mess up the Divine Emissary's dinner party."
"Let's go. When the Divine Emissary arrives, everything will be clear."
Hearing this, the Dragon Riders looked disdainfully at these heavy armored Knights.
Then they were about to leave with Merchant John.
"Stop, I'm talking to you, that little beggar."
One of the blonde noblewomen, holding her head high, stretched her neckline, with two slaves beside her carrying her voluminous, mushroom-like skirt.
Cha Cha turned her head in confusion, looking at the blonde noblewoman, not understanding why she called her.
The blonde noblewoman looked at Cha Cha as if in judgment and said, "Although a bit dirty, she is a slave with complete limbs."
"Tonight, you will be my skirt-lifting slave."
A skirt-lifting slave was not like those two slaves who helped her carry the heavy skirt.
Instead, she had to take a bowl and crawl into the noblewoman's voluminous, mushroom-like skirt.
The noblewoman would stand and urinate, the slave would hold the bowl to catch it, and then clean it before crawling out.
The main reason was that the noblewoman's skirt had layers upon layers, and also a crinoline, making it very cumbersome to put on or take off; it would be impossible without two or three slaves.
Therefore, to save trouble, slaves also had an additional role, specifically to help their noblewoman master relieve herself.
Cha Cha had no idea what the blonde noblewoman meant, while Merchant John stepped forward and awkwardly bowed, saying, "This lady, she is our partner, a citizen, not a slave."
The blonde noblewoman glanced at Cha Cha, then looked haughtily at Merchant John and said, "How many gold coins? Name your price."
