The banquet was lively and noisy.
The Grand Duke of Riptide sat at the head seat, while the Grand Duke of Fury sat at the secondary seat.
The ministers were seated below.
Some nobles presented rare treasures.
There were around fifty noble knights sitting in the Dragon Castle hall, with the nobles inside and the knights outside; no ordinary people were present.
There were vassals of the Riptide, vassals of the Fury, and the rest were war knights brought by lords.
Beixites was one of the lords, and his willingness to attend in response to the Grand Duke of Fury's call undoubtedly showed great respect.
He had a gilded box brought in, and the attendant opened it to reveal a hundred pounds of bright red crystals neatly piled inside.
The price of table salt was calculated in copper coins, but blood salt could only be measured in gold coins.
This was a unique resource owned by the Bexites family.
