Chapter 65 - Two Main Points (1/2)

”The sun will shine once again... The light will reach hearts! ????” A strong-voiced man was singing from the stage in the corner of the luxurious venue.

Five people entered through the entrance door, where there was a receptionist with a kind smile and shiny hair. Three of these people caught everyone's attention, not only because they were beautiful but also because of the social status that the two of them had.

The Matriarch of the Strogueher Noble Family and her firstborn had never been seen in one place before, so many doubted that Nathalia was really a Strogueher, but that night confirmation finally came.

Ayumi was wearing a tight black dress, with the hem just above her knee, emphasizing her sensuality. Nathalia was wearing a long white dress, accentuating her purity and ambition. So was Alexis, the half-dragon, whose red dress matched her orange hair perfectly.

Seeing this trio in person was like a gift from heaven for the men on the scene, yet a feeling of envy arose when they looked at the two men accompanying them.

Both were wearing simple, unflashy tuxedos, and they didn't seem to be essential people either; for this reason, a tsunami of whispers ran through the place, ripping off offenses to the two.

”Who do they think they are to hang out with Miss Strogueher like that?”

”I bet they are waiters who came in through the wrong entrance...”

”Haha! No, I'm sure it's the coachmen.”

”Slaves?”

”If we were to judge them by their attire, we might even say they are puppies.”

But the two men didn't seem to mind these offenses and continued appeased, with serious looks on their faces.

”Let me help you with your tie.” said Shiro to Luke, whose black tie was loose and crooked.

”Ah... Okay, thank you very much.” The half-wolf was quite uncomfortable in that kind of clothing he had never worn before.

However, before I go on to tell how the wild Luke will fare at a nobleman's party, I need to tell how he was put into this situation.

The day the half-dragon told how she ended up saving Luke, she realized that she could trust him and his companion. For that reason, she also felt she should keep them close.

”Can you guys do me a favor?” Alexis inquired.

Luke looked back and arched his eyebrows upon hearing her request; after all, Nathalia had already paid 100 gold coins to her and, in the middle of it all, even revealed her identity, so it was a bit awkward to ask for a favor at this point.

”What do you need?” Nathalia asked, being charitable.

Alexis was clearly glad that the two adventurers didn't deny her and ran to a kitchen cupboard. Then, from the closet, she took out a cloth bag, and inside it, something buzzed.

”What is that?” The Elf questioned her, curious, as she approached.

As a response to the girl's questioning, the half-dragon removed an object from the bag, and now in her hand, there was a small white cube, which immediately made Nathalia flinch.

”Don't worry, that one is well sealed.”

”Is that the demon you commented on? And that you defeated?” The Elf's huge red eyes reflected the clarity of the cube, which emitted a low rumble. Vriimm~

”Are you still with that?” Luke inquired of her.

”I can't just leave it with anyone or on any. I don't want that thing in here to break free again.”
