Chapter 197 - Day 2 of debutante party part 3 (1/2)
[At Diana Hall]
[Motra point of view]
”This hall sure is enormous” [Leogris]
”It sure is” [Motra]
Us, nobles and royalties from other countries had gathered before the main star of the show arrive together with her father and mother. Buzzing with noises of those trying to form some sort of connection with the princess, they truly are rather fascinating, as I'm sure some of the faces are those belittling her few days ago.
”Look, this juice, it's splendid” [Leogris]
”You're right” [Motra]
Hoo... you seem nervous our dear beastman king, keep on making this nonsense small talk, and from how the vampire guard keep being on his edges, I suppose my true intentions have finally been exposed. They sure are slow, if I decide to play all of my cards from the start, I could have killed most of them, but alas, where's the fun in it. Us from insect beastman are short lived species after all, so to end someone life without any emotional impact on their final moments is nothing but dull, whether fulfilling their final request, so they can depart without regrets to afterlife, or torturing them as a prologue to hell, that's more meaningful for me, so for now, let us enjoy agitating them more
(Not only them though... looks like most of those afflicted with The Princess are on their edges as well. They should've just stay at their home, though that is nothing more than to add few fearful hours of their lives, which is not bad) [Motra]
”Ladies and gentlemen, I present, The Star of today's debutante party” [Ceanu]
And the princess enter the hall, alongside other, and as soon as they enter, clap from those inside filled the room. Surprisingly, shortly after they enter, the first, second, and third queen follow suit along with the two princes. Here I am under the impression that those five wouldn't get any invitation... no, from the looks of it, they just received the invitation, while their clothes do match the overall mood of party, someone like me who has been attending party after party can tell that it was a last minute preparation from their parts. How intriguing, I suppose delaying my plan a little longer wouldn't hurt, I can feel a drama between the royal families coming soon.
”It has been a while, Motra” [Khamishah]
”Likewise, Mrs Strongest Adventure” [Motra]
”You too, Aries” [Khamishah]
”Pleasure all mine” [Aries]
Hoo... they're staying near me, as to act instantly the moment I do anything suspicious. Not to worry, I wanted to see a drama first and foremost, my plan can be done right afterwards. I can assure you.
(Aries and Saga at my side, the hidden vampire at my back, and Ash, blending himself in front of me, they're the one I have to be wariest of) [Motra]
The other aren't that bad either. Strongest after those four will be the female bodyguard of the princess, only a tad weaker than the vampire, followed by few handful adventures that dress quite nicely. I suppose the elemental archer Naoto is the second strongest followed by the those two, the ex female paladin adventure and the samurai. It was a heart pounding battle royale match that day where the paladin won by a thin hair, if only S rank adventure was allowed
”Where are the orphans?”
”They're an eyesore after all”
”Guess the princess isn't that kind hearted after all”
”And those two ladies, why are they going towards Princess Nurhaliza. They got nerve for a failure and a bastard daughter”
