Chapter 7: Chapter 7 “Nellie Lilith” and “The Hunt Begins” (Please Chase Reading)

Translator: 549690339

Having had his fill of food and wine, Milton Cheney took small sips from his after-dinner drink.

Cheney had initially thought this was just a simple feast, but he had underestimated the luxuriousness of the kingdom’s nobility.

The menu was incredibly varied, with some dishes being total strangers to him, dishes he hadn’t even heard of before.

The feast even included some dishes composed of complex ingredients and boasting fantastical colors.

One such dish was a roasted swan, the chef had reattached the clean feathers, adorned in silver and gold.

Cheney also saw a peacock, seemingly alive, being served on the dining table.

The cooked peacock still wore its beautiful feathers and used a stick to stand erect on a plate.

A maid from the Lilith Family placed a bunch of alcohol-soaked straw in the peacock’s mouth, then set it alight, creating an illusion of a fire-breathing peacock when served.

Another dish was turning one pigeon into two.

The chef skinned the pigeon and wrapped it in a mixture made of cheese, eggs, seasoning, and raisins.

Then they sewed the pigeon’s skin back, and boiled this “new” pigeon.

Following this, the chef would roast the skinned pigeon.

During the roasting process, it was covered with a mixture made of breadcrumbs, then glazed with egg liquid.

In this way, one pigeon was made into two dishes.

It is undeniable that the opulence and power of the kingdom’s nobility were fully embodied in this feast.

To conclude, they would enjoy some light desserts, cakes, candied fruits, and nuts, also known as “farewell desserts”.

In other words, the feast started with desserts and also ended with desserts.

At the end of the feast, Cheney and Malcolm stepped out of the banquet hall together.

They had to attend the night’s dance as well.

There was no avoiding it; socializing was inevitable among the nobility, even if Cheney was not particularly interested.

Cheney had a strange feeling that Nellie Lilith, the daughter of the Marquis of Dawnstar, seemed to glance at him a few times during the feast.

The Dawnstar Family had prepared specific rooms for all the nobles attending the Hunting Day.

Cheney walked into the room decorated with the Golden Lion Family Emblem.

Cheney didn’t require much from his accommodation, but that didn’t mean these rooms weren’t extravagant to the extreme.

He casually picked up a book titled “The Kingdom’s Architecture History” off the bookshelf.
