Chương 417: 415 Banquet (Part 1)_1

The night the martial arts competition ended was destined to be a night of revelry.

Over a hundred bonfires arose by the River Crystal, skinned cows and sheep slowly rotating on the barbecue, with fat falling into the fire, sending up bursts of flames. Covered in spices and salt, the enticing aroma instantly permeated the surrounding air.

Long tables were set up next to the bonfires, heaped with vegetables, fruits, and bread.

Tens of thousands of Half-Elf folk sat around the bonfires, enjoying fine food and wine provided by Queen Isa, while discussing the events of the day's tournament.

Some sighed in sympathy for Karl Miller, cursed the Half-Elf traitor Omar, or debated who would be awarded the martial arts champion... but Ennsfa Lute was noticeably absent from their discussions.

Despite the satisfaction garnered from the former Duke Lute's performance in the tournament - his brutal killing of Knight Omar - the memory sent chills down the spines of the Half-Elves.
