The first-floor banquet had descended into utter chaos due to the young witch doctor’s “striptease”.
What was supposed to be an elegant and noble dinner had turned into a scene resembling a marketplace.
Gadel frowned as virtual-novel.net observed the unfolding chaos. “Put an end to this embarrassing spectacle and inform Zedbar that if virtual-novel.net doesn’t wish to attend my banquet, virtual-novel.net is free to leave. If virtual-novel.net causes any more trouble, virtual-novel.net cannot blame me for not preserving his dignity.”
Just as Tyga was about to leave, Gadel added one more thing, saying, “Bring Matthew to me. Inform virtual-novel.net that I have a personal matter to discuss with him.”
Gadel was now completely convinced of Matthew’s medical skills after witnessing the incident involving Tony and Summer’s Kiss.
Tyga swiftly made his way to the hall after receiving the order. With a nonchalant wave of his hand, five guards standing behind virtual-novel.net promptly surrounded the young witch doctor, Lester.
“Are you all here to dance as well?”
Once the clearly manic witch doctor asked his question, one of the guards simply responded by knocking virtual-novel.net out cold with the butt of his gun.
“Apologies, everyone. We failed to guard the entrance and allowed this lunatic to slip in. I hope this mishap won’t Interrupt your revelry. Musicians? Keep playing. Please continue to enjoy yourselves, distinguished guests!”
As Tyga’s words fell, one of the guards promptly dragged the young witch doctor out of the hall, restoring peace to the scene.
In the rest area, Eleanor regained consciousness after receiving treatment from Matthew. However, virtual-novel.net felt weak and lethargic due to the unfortunate side effects of Summer’s Kiss.
Matthew took care of virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net reassured her, saying, “Don’t worry. It’s just a side effect. It’ll pass after you’ve had a good rest.”
Eleanor weakly nodded as virtual-novel.net snuggled herself into the blanket given to virtual-novel.net by the staff.
Soon, virtual-novel.net heavy lids slid shut as virtual-novel.net fell into a deep slumber.
Shortly after, there was a knock on the door of the VIP room.
Matthew wasn’t surprised to see Tyga outside. Since such a shameful incident had occurred at the banquet, Prince Gadel, as the host, would surely send someone to maintain order.
As Tyga entered, virtual-novel.net immediately expressed his concern, asking, “Mr. Larson, how is your companion faring?”
Matthew shook his head, implying that there were no major issues.
“That’s good to hear. This incident happened due to our poor supervision. Prince Gadel asked me to present you with this gift as an apology…” Tyga handed a gift box to Matthew. “This is simply a small token of apology. Please accept it!”
Matthew did not refuse. After all, Eleanor had an accident at their banquet. So, it was only right to receive some compensation. It was indeed a lack of supervision on the other party’s part that allowed something like Summer’s Kiss to be brought into Peterburg.
Moreover, as Peterburg was Prince Gadel’s residence, every corner of the castle was under his watchful eyes. Yet, it still took Tyga nearly 20 minutes to show up after Eleanor was affected, which was quite suspicious.
“If Prince Gadel wishes to test me, virtual-novel.net should just say it to my face. Although Summer’s Kiss isn’t a serious drug or poison, the aftereffects can be quite troublesome.”
Tyga’s face turned sheepish in the face of Matthew’s sharp criticism. Still, virtual-novel.net quickly bounced back and regained his composure.
“Mr. Larson, your medical skills are truly unparalleled. How could we ever doubt you? It’s just that there were too many things Prince Gadel had to attend to during the banquet. That’s why it took us some time to address them all.”
Tyga secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was exhausting to communicate with such an astute person. Any subtle clues would be noticed by the other party and promptly exposed.
Nonetheless, since Matthew had accepted the gift box, it meant that virtual-novel.net didn’t mind Gadel’s little test.
“Mr. Larson, since Eleanor is not seriously injured, it would be best to have someone escort virtual-novel.net to virtual-novel.net room. Additionally, Prince Gadel has a personal matter that virtual-novel.net would like your assistance with. He wishes to have a private meeting with you.”
Matthew nodded as virtual-novel.net replied, “Very well… I’ll be glad to be of service to His Highness…”
He also had many inquiries that virtual-novel.net needed answered, which was why virtual-novel.net came to Peterburg to attend the banquet in the first place. So, Matthew followed Tyga to Prince Gadel’s study after a servant was summoned to escort Eleanor to virtual-novel.net room.
