Chapter 225 - Found you~ (1/2)

”So like this...?” Tiana asked as she tried imitating the correct movements

Unlike before where she was stepping on his shoes, she was now able to move around freely matching the song's rhythm

”I think I'm getting the hang of it.” She said with an excited look in her face

Zakaragi watched as Tiana began to enjoy herself, at first, she seemed to be hating it as she couldn't properly match the movements but now it was the opposite.

As the two continued to dance, the doors on the west side of the hallways opened up for a moment before closing

And in that moment, two people passed through it.

”Follow the plan.” John whispered to Serena's ear

”D-Don't do that, and I know.” Serena replied as she felt a shiver go down her spine

”Sorry, I keep forgetting how much you hate whispers.” Said John

”I don't hate it...” Serena whispered

”Hm? What was that?” John asked

”You have the ability to hear things from around the room but you didn't hear that?” Serena asked

”That's because I wasn't using magic this time... And that is a fair point...” Said John

Serena let out a sigh and John extended his hand to her.

”Can I have this dance with you, young lady?”

”I like your manners, young man. Why not?” Serena asked as she took his hand

Together the two walked towards the middle of the hall, while making sure they wouldn't bump into any of the other nobles who were dancing.

Once they found their spot, John wrapped his right arm around her back while he stretched out his left hand to the left, to hold on to Serena's arm which had also been stretched out.

John was relieved to know that the hours he spent practising before in his previous world and in this world weren't a waste.

[Luckily, some of the dances here are similar to my previous world's one. This one in particular.]

Once Serena wrapped her left arm around John's back, and slightly tightened the grip around his right arm, they began to move.

Slight steps back and forth, left and right. They matched the song's rhythm in their own way.

Serena was surprised that John knew how to dance, Just as John was also surprised that Serena could dance and decided to comment on it

”You're quite the dancer, aren't you?” John asked

”You're not too bad yourself.” Replied Serena

”Was that a compliment?”

”I don't know, was it?”

The song's rhythm began speeding up, and so did they. Their movement was gradually getting faster to match the rhythm and before they realised it, they were immersed in the dance.

The two were dancing in sync, right as one took another step, the other followed, it was as if they could reach other's mind.
