Chapter 228 Goodbye to the Royal Family 2
"Cough cough!"
Liu Chi quickly pretended to cough a few times to cover up his embarrassment.
"Master, why is your face red?"
"Really? Oh! It's too hot here! Aren't you blushing too? Haha~"
Faced with Liu Chi's perfunctory attitude, Yang Xi sighed and walked towards Liu Chi.
"Master, there are only two of us now. Can you show me around?"
Seeing Yang Xi begging him in a coquettish manner, Liu Chi was also stunned, but according to Nana, it would take about 24 hours to restore the flight function, so he really had nothing to do during this period of time.
"Well, where is our Xi'er going to play?"
"Lillo Opera House! There seems to be some kind of event going on today. It's very lively!"
Hearing this answer, Liu Chi's thoughts instantly went back to the past, to the time at the Royal Theater. If only he could have understood it earlier.
"Okay, let's go there!"
The opera house is at the junction of the central urban area of Liro and the port area. Liu Chi used molecular teleportation to teleport directly to an uninhabited place in the central urban area.
Because of Li Luo's relationship, Liu Chi asked Yang Xi to place the Dark Night Star Pupil in the fortress. With Yang Xi's strength as a great swordsman, he would be able to fight as long as he did not encounter a Saint-level master.
After coming out of the alley, Liu Chi did not mind Yang Xi's smiling arm around his. If he rejected her openly, Liu Chi was not sure whether Yang Xi's favorability towards him would suddenly drop sharply like Catherine did.
The two of them "supported" each other and walked slowly on the street. Many passers-by cast envious glances at them.
In the international metropolis of Lira, there are not many people of Asian descent, at least one-fifth of the total population.
As the sunlight became weaker and weaker, night quietly climbed up the sky. The light stones in the street lamps began to glow after absorbing a day's worth of light magic. Soon the whole street "came alive" again.
Liu Chi and Yang Xi also walked to the door of the magnificent opera house.
Many black carriages stopped in front of the opera house. Waiters in uniform opened the carriage doors for the nobles who came to watch the opera with smiles on their faces.
Liu Chi took Yang Xi towards the entrance, but because they were dressed casually, they were stopped by a man who looked like the head waiter.
"You two! This is the Lillo Opera House. Did you go to the wrong place?"
Seeing the waiter in front of him nodding and bowing to the noble just now, but questioning him seriously when he came to him, he was a typical hypocrite who bullied the weak and feared the strong.
Liu Chi looked around and asked,
"Like them, I came to see the opera with my girlfriend. I've heard of the Lillo Opera House for a long time. I'm lucky enough to come and see it today!"
Seeing Liu Chi talking seriously, the leading waiter laughed disdainfully and said sarcastically,
"I think if you have nothing to do, just leave. This is not a place for civilians like you. If you stay here, don't blame us for being rude!"
Seeing the waiter tear his face and reveal his true face, Liu Chi couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, okay! I'll go then."
Liu Chi did not say anything joking, but prepared to change clothes with Yang Xi and then enter the venue using his identity as a baron. After observation, he found that everyone present today was indeed dressed in luxurious clothes. Just as Yang Xi said, there must be something important happening tonight.
Liu Chi turned around and walked down the steps of the opera house, and then he heard a burst of orderly horse hooves sounds.
Following the sound, I saw several pure black BMWs galloping towards the opera house. The carriages were also in a low-key and luxurious black style. The gems inlaid reflected the light from the street, making the entire carriage look quite luxurious.
Just when Liu Chi was still wondering who had come with such a grand presence, he learned from other people's voices that the person was none other than Liro's queen - Janet.
As the carriage stopped, three women walked out of it. Janet and Karina were wearing evening gowns for aristocratic banquets, while Zero was wearing a black tights.
Seeing that the visitor was the Queen, a road naturally appeared in front of the opera house. Before Liu Chi had time to react, he was immediately seen by the three women.
"Your Excellency the Baron?"
Janet's voice was very low, but because she was the queen, many people heard what she said, and their eyes turned to the inconspicuous oriental boy in the field.
"No way? That guy knows the Queen? Why didn't he make way for the Queen? Is he looking for death?"
"Shh! Stop making noise!"
......
Soon, people nearby started whispering to each other, and the waiter who had just scolded Liu Chi saw this scene and wanted to find a place to bury himself.
"Her Majesty the Queen!"
Liu Chi smiled, put his hands on his chest and bowed slightly, then he was about to step aside when he was stopped by Janet.
"You want to go in, right? Come here! Let's go together!"
"No! Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. I have something else to do. I'll leave first!"
Janet didn't say much, just gave a simple eye signal, and Ling on the side immediately rushed forward and pulled Liu Chi over.
Liu Chi and Yang Xi had no choice but to follow Janet and enter the opera house in this way.
But Karina and Janet were also together, and Liu Chi probably guessed that what happened tonight must be related to the freshman competition.
This year's global freshman competition will be held at the Imperial College in Liro. The official competition will begin in mid-November, and the freshman competition is about to begin.
Sure enough, just as Liu Chi had thought, the opera house tonight was a welcome ceremony for freshmen from all over the world. There were ten places in total, with three participating students, three instructors, and some logistics support from each country.
For the big countries, Liro arranged private rooms for the delegations, and for the small countries, they had separate booths. As for the other spectators, they sat in scattered seats and on the "mountain" at the back. The front row tickets were basically taken by the great nobles.
Because of Janet's care, Liu Chi and Yang Xi, who did not have tickets and were dressed in casual clothes, were directly arranged to sit in the first row at the front.
In order to protect his privacy, Liu Chi habitually wears a mask made of black cloth.
Because Karina was sitting next to him, Liu Chi was curious about what she was doing after not seeing her for many days.
So, like most of the audience, Liu Chi started chatting.
"Karina!"
"What's the matter, Baron?"
Hearing that Karina was just talking to him in a normal tone, Liu Chi felt relieved. If she called him Liu Chiyi or Zack, there would be a risk of exposing her identity.
"What have you been busy with during this time?"
Although she asked this, Liu Chi could guess more or less that as a specially appointed teacher of the Imperial College, she must have been responsible for the training of the winners of the novice competition during this period.
On the surface, all countries in the world participated in the previous freshman competitions, but in fact everyone understood that the only two countries that could compete for the first and second place were the largest country in the West, the Sunset Empire, and the largest country in the East, the Ogar Empire.
