Agelina took Carina to change clothes, while Miss Sylvia held Shade's arm and prepared to attend the banquet. The only words left on the deck were the young witch's "pink and white" and "it looks good too".
At six o'clock in the evening, everything was ready for the banquet belonging to Shade and the ladies. Iluna, who was going to stay here tonight, also arrived in time. Even Sister Devlin, who had never attended such occasions, actually came.
In the banquet hall on the ship.
Bright lights illuminated the cabin, and the music of the piano made the sound of high heels hitting the floor become very charming.
The banquet still used a buffet-style dinner, and the sumptuous food on the sterling silver plates was still steaming. The "third seat" Sylvie Aurora and the "fifth seat" Megan/Audrey Edwards
The six great witches and the five witch apprentices, Tifa, Matilda, Margaret, Miss Swift, and Miss Hayley Aurora, can already represent half of the members of the contemporary [Witches Council].
Miss Eleser sighed at the "grand occasion" from the side, and then quickly joined Shade in lining up to dance.
The little unicorn was another focus of this pre-war banquet, because in addition to the witch, the witch's apprentice, Sirius, Luvia, Dorothy and others, other follower girls were also invited to the banquet, so the little unicorn
The horned beast immediately caused quite a stir.
It was a little scared at first, but fortunately Amelia stayed with it. And when little Lianna discovered that once she was surrounded by people, not only would she continue to have fruit to eat, but the cat would never come near, she began to enjoy it.
to the atmosphere of the banquet.
As for Shade, of course he was very busy. From the moment the girls from the opera troupe played the first note, he was surrounded by the girls.
The dance will start again in a while, but this does not prevent the girls from getting in front of Shade and frequently playing "drinking games" with him. However, with the physical fitness of Shade and the sorceresses, there is no need to worry even if they drink industrial alcohol directly.
Drunk or poisoned, not to mention champagne and red wine that taste very good.
As for the so-called "banquet drinking game", the more elegant one is to talk about classical literature with each other, and those who can't answer the answer have to drink; the less elegant one is to draw cards, and those who draw the same card have to drink a glass of wine or other ways of playing.
Seven times, he suspected that the young girls had done something wrong.
But not everyone gathered around Shade. For example, Luvia and Miss Belindel left the banquet hall mysteriously, probably to divine something important; Miss Aurora and Miss Elisa arranged
After waiting for a while to dance with Shade, they chatted at the table with the mermaid girls who were invited to the boat.
Siris, Tifa, and Matilda were mysteriously talking about something in the corner. The three girls all had slightly red faces. Occasionally they would look at Shade in the crowd, passing by them and wanting to talk to Lacey.
As Margaret chatted with Ya, I felt they might be discussing some food.
Sister Devlin just sat there. The aura of the nun wearing an eye patch made the girls afraid to approach her.
Iluna originally wanted to take the initiative to say a few words to the nun, but when she saw the "Witch of the Earth" Vanessa Benanis taking the initiative to come to the nun's side with a wine glass, she turned around and sat down with her.
Agelina spoke.
Agelina was wearing a beautiful little red dress, which was the only banquet dress she brought from Yodel Palace in her luggage, because Lesia thought that the purpose of Agelina's visit to Moon Bay was not to attend the banquet.
The little princess was very reserved at first, because Dorothy was also here, which meant that her sister was also here. But when she noticed that the blonde writer lady was sitting on the sofa with Margaret very seriously and started talking.
, he quietly picked up a glass of champagne from the table.
Speaking of which, she is seventeen years old and has reached adulthood, but Lesia has never allowed her to drink. Although Queen Diana, who is seven months pregnant, is not so strict, Agelina usually does not dare to drink.
Mother held up the wine glass in front of her.
When she had the opportunity, she brought the champagne to the quietest seat at the end of the long table, and then saw Iluna holding her face, looking boredly at the excitement of the banquet.
Iluna glanced at the wine glass she was holding:
"Good evening. If you want to ask me why I am sitting here, my answer is that I am waiting for the dance to start. Besides, Shade and I have plenty of time alone, so there is no need to join in the fun now."
She was actually too embarrassed to go directly. Iluna Bayas was not as bold as the witch apprentices. From this point of view, the witches of the Sixth Age were not without their merits.
Agelina and Iluna had met more than once, but they were not very familiar with each other. So she greeted Iluna politely, then carefully adjusted her skirt and sat down with a wine glass.
Fortunately, the atmosphere was not awkward, because the elf girl with pointed ears also came over with a glass of juice with an excited look on her face:
"Little Lianna is really popular, but she really needs to lose weight after she returns to the academy. Maybe you can ask Shade for advice. Shade's cat, little Mia, is in good shape. You see, this party is really lively.
, I have never attended a banquet on a ship. Are you going to dance with Shade later? He is really popular~"
Emilia is the oldest among the three, but also the youngest in terms of race. Coincidentally, she, Iluna, and Agelina all met in Tobesk during the first half of the summer vacation.
, although my relationship with the little princess is better, my relationship with Iluna is actually also good.
With Emilia mediating the relationship, the three young girls soon started chatting happily.
Iluna was born in the church, Agelina was a royal princess, and Emilia grew up and lived in St. Byrons. The three of them had completely different backgrounds, but once they chatted, they found that they were actually quite similar.
So for different reasons, they did not go to the lively banquet that followed. This was actually very tempting. Each of the great witches took out their own collections as prizes.
It was only when the dance started that the girls in different orders stood up reservedly, told their companions that they wanted to leave for a while, and then walked towards Shade with their skirts in hand.
The three of them each danced with Shade, and then continued to chat about their lives and past events.
So before you knew it, the time had reached late night on Saturday. The sound of the violin had stopped, Shade had been taken away by someone unknown, and the girls who attended the banquet also returned to their posts.
Sunday is coming in a few hours, and most people will definitely not sleep tonight.
The three of them did not want to rest for the time being. Although the banquet was over and there were only a few maids responsible for cleaning up, they still sat at one end of the long table and chatted happily.
The table was covered with late-night snacks and teapots and wine glasses, which ended the elf girl's topic about "The Elf Dormitory in St. Byrons". The night was already dark, and the three of them all picked up the wine glasses and teacups in front of them, and suddenly felt a little lonely.
and boredom.
"Oh, Iluna, there is something I forgot to tell you."
The pointed-eared elf girl suddenly said:
"You asked me to help investigate Shad's staff and 'Yggdrasil'. I have already found the result. That word probably means World Tree. Shad's staff probably means World Tree."
It must have been a branch. This is not common, and I don’t know where he got it from.”
Iluna's eyes lit up, and she was almost certain that among the conditions that "if" told her to finally save Shade, "resurrecting the dead" refers to Shade's staff.
"But how to resurrect the World Tree?"
She was immediately startled by her thoughts, and then frowned as she felt that this condition seemed to be even harder to achieve.
Agelina didn't quite know what they were talking about, but seeing that no one suggested leaving the table, the little red-haired princess looked around and saw that Dorothy was no longer here, so she boldly suggested to her two friends:
:
"Everyone has gone to work or rest. Do you want to play some exciting games while you have nothing to do before midnight?"
Her face was full of excitement, and the pointy-eared elf girl's eyes lit up:
"Do you want to sneak into your sister's room and try on her clothes?"
Iluna temporarily put her worries behind her. That was a puzzle that needed to be solved after the Battle of Moon Bay. She covered her mouth and smiled, while Agelina raised her head slightly:
"Emilia, do you think this is exciting? No, no, no, we are not kids anymore, let's play a drinking game! It's the kind of thing one person says 'I've never done', and others
If you do, you need to follow the drinking game!"
She deliberately lowered her voice during the second half of her sentence.
"I heard the dwarf uncle in the tavern said about this kind of game!"
The elf girl's face turned red:
"But the goblin bartender in the tavern never sold me wine. He said that he was more worried about having his liquor license revoked by the college than my few coins."
"Sounds like a great game."
Iluna also said with a smile, influenced by the two girls who were "younger" than her:
"I'm going to ask for wine, but we can't drink more. If we are discovered, Shade will definitely scold you."
She placed herself in a more "mature" position than Emilia and Agelina, then happily went to communicate with the maid, and successfully brought back three clean glass goblets, and
Red wine left over from the party.
Hiding it from the others, they were very excited to do such "exciting" things late at night after the banquet. Among them, Emilia, who was not allowed to drink alcohol in the academy, didn't even notice the little one who had wandered back to rest alone.
The horned beast personally took the wine bottle and poured half a glass of wine for everyone.
So the three of them picked up the glasses and clinked them in the air, and everyone laughed happily. The cleaning maids naturally noticed the movements of the three girls, and they all smiled and shook their heads, without stopping them.
