Volume 2 Chapter 204 The Dance Begins

"Buu, the ball is tomorrow after nightfall, and as we promised, you'll come with me as my suitor. But I'm not going to stay with you after the admission, after all, everyone has their own circle, can you understand that?" asked Cecily.

"You don't have to worry at all, you just need to take me in, in fact, I may be busier than you think, and I won't have time to squeeze into any aristocratic circles. Thor waved his hand nonchalantly.

"Okay, when the time comes, you wait for me at the gate of the academy, my carriage just picks you up on the way, and then we will ride the carriage together to the Holy Light Mage Tower. Cecily instructed.

“...... Isn't it the Ornestes' ball?" Thor frowned.

"Yes, the ball was originally held at the Ernest family's mansion, but the grandson of the second elder I mentioned to you, who received an invitation from the Ernest family two days ago. ”

He said half-jokingly, half-disgustedly, that the scene at the Ernest house was too small. Therefore, the current head of the Ernest family immediately complied with his wishes and prepared to expand the size of the ball, so he changed the venue of the ball to the fourteenth floor of the Holy Light Mage Tower. ”

"I've heard that the Mage Tower is rarely used for such public gatherings, and this time it is a blessing for Zorn to be able to borrow the venue, the Ernest House. Come to think of it, a dance party of this magnitude is going to be fun. Cecily took the hem of her skirt and spun gracefully in place, as if she couldn't wait.

"Fourteen floors, is that space enough?" Thinking about those slender mage towers, it seems that there is not much space on the first floor, Thor asked with some hesitation.

"Rest assured, one year our family was invited to visit, and it was no problem to cram in a few hundred people. And all the ball really needs is the central stage, and the audience is gathered around, how much space do you think you need?" Cecily teased Saul with a look of "you don't know."

"Okay, I'll see you then. Thor waved at Cecily.

It's going to be fun, it's going to be fun, maybe it's going to be so fun that you'll never forget it until you die, after all, it's my closing ceremony!" a wicked smile broke into Thor's lips and he turned to leave.

Looking at Thor's back, Cecily always felt that this guy seemed to be a little mysterious.

Except for scaring himself on the first day, he didn't harass himself anymore later, and then I heard that he hooked up with Anne Baez and Lorna's two wild girls, which is also a bit of a trick.

Now that the ball is approaching, it's not a big deal to take him to see the world, Cecily thought.

At noon, Thor went to the college cafeteria, as was customary, to have lunch with Lorna, Anne Baez, and the others. It seems that the two little shiitake mushrooms are also used to it, and even the table has not been changed.

"Seventeen...... Clang...... Why am I invited again, every time I lose, I don't play, I don't play. Lorna tossed her fork on her plate and glared at Thor with a puffed out face while Anne Baez sat and snickered.

Once bored while waiting for a meal, Saul suggested a little game.

The rules are simple, two people count each other, from the beginning to the end of the count to seventeen. Every time it is someone's turn, you can count one number or two numbers, but you can't jump, and you can't give up the necessary counts, such as counting one or one or two, but not one or three.

Anyway, whoever counts to seventeen in the end loses, and the loser is responsible for adding dishes.

Meals in the college cafeteria were supposed to be free, but some of the food in the college cafeteria had a certain amount of food that was complicated and delicate, and it would cost you more than the daily supply.

The counting game was taken up by Thor, and at first Lorna and Anne Baez didn't think so, but then they found out that they couldn't count Thor, no matter how they counted, and the guy never lost.

The two of them held their breath in their hearts to challenge Sol every day, and then Anne Baez also mastered some skills, although they were still not Thor's opponents, but it was no problem to deal with Lorna.

So Lorna became the one at the bottom, and she was responsible for entertaining guests every day

"It's okay not to play, but you have to add vegetables, no one in this world can rely on my account, and those who rely on my account will pay more in the end. Thor said arrogantly, clasping his hands.

"You lie to me every day, you are the most delicious of the three, you are a pig!" Lorna complained to Thor, and turned to call for food for the three of them.

In fact, the three of them don't care about this little money, everyone is just used to this kind of slapstick atmosphere, and the three of them know that this atmosphere may be over after today.

"Tomorrow is coming, don't you worry?" When Lorna returned, Anne Baez glanced at Thor.

"What's there to be nervous about?" said Saul with a nonchalant smile.

"And what exactly are you going to do?" Lorna asked again, a question that had not been answered.

"Maybe I'll use some means then. Thor thought for a moment and replied.

Hearing Thor's words, Lorna and Anne Baez didn't think there was anything wrong, but just asked Thor if he was sure.

People are like this, when they usually have nothing to do with themselves, everyone feels that they represent justice, can see through all darkness, and look directly at the light.

When you use some despicable means against others, such as poisoning and sneaking attacks, these people may accuse you of not being bright and positive enough.

And when the person you want to deal with becomes their own enemy who can't eat their own flesh and blood, they will only think that your poison is not poisonous enough and the attack is not violent enough.

"Then be careful yourself, and speak up if you need help. Anne Baez said.

"When this thing is over, you might as well stay in the main city, Sister Anne and I will find a way to help you get an official identity, and you can complete your studies with us." Even if he can't learn magic in the end, Izheim's diploma is still very popular. Lorna thought with her chin on her back.

Wait for it to pass...... In the end, Thor could only wave his hand and stop talking.

"By the way, do you know how to dance?" asked Lorna, and Anne Baez looked at her curiously.

"Does it count that I can swing like a duck? And sometimes I feel like I'm swinging rhythmically. Saul said.

"Poof~ You're like a duck!" Lorna and Anne Baez laughed as they covered their mouths.

"How can a ball not be an Antian dancer? Come, we will teach you, there should be enough time, and I hope you are not a fool with reckless qualifications. Lorna blinked, then dragged Thor out of her seat and began teaching the dance steps.

So all afternoon, Thor was involuntarily hugged and spun around by two small shiitake mushrooms in turn, and his head was dizzy.

When he returned to his room in the evening, Thor suddenly felt a sense of relief that he would finally not have to wear this glamorous robe from tomorrow night. And his own sword, which has been covered in dust for many days, is finally going to shine again, thinking about it like this, Thor is faintly excited.

As for the death he would eventually face, he could only try not to think about that aspect.

The curse seems to have worsened again in the past few days, and he can feel the accelerated loss of life force, but fortunately, he won't have to suffer anymore tomorrow.

After carefully sorting out his plans and checking some of the things he would need tomorrow, Solmo took the spatial ring and released the skull Timo.

"Teemo!" Thor tried to shout.

There was no movement, it seemed that the guy was still asleep, and Thor could only put him on the cabinet.

"No one!" said Teemo suddenly, obviously resentful.

Thor breathed a sigh of relief the moment he heard Timo's voice, at least some of the last things could be explained.

"Listen to me, Teemo. Thor patted him on the head.

"I don't listen, boss, you're very unkind! Leave me in the ring and ignore me, I've been awake for days, and I'm bored walking around the empty ring. Teemo grumbled.

Thor sighed slightly.

"I'm sorry, something happened recently, but fortunately you woke up in time, and now you listen to me carefully. I left your teeth for a girl named Beth Battier, who only has one eye. ”

"One eye, Boss, your tastes are getting stranger, and how can you keep the important parts of my body for ...... Oh, since it's a girl, that's understandable. Timo interjected.

"Don't talk nonsense, listen to me!" Thor suddenly subconsciously shouted angrily.

"Boss...... You... What's wrong?" Teemo was stunned, with the impression that Thor was rarely so grumpy.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have been angry, it's just that time is running out. ”

"You go tonight, find her, and bring her this spatial ring of mine, and she will understand everything when she sees it. And after that, you can try to get along with her, and if you don't get along, then leave her and live your own life. Saul said.

"What do you mean, boss? How does it sound like ...... After the end?" Teemo muttered quietly.

Thor was silent for a moment, then recounted some of the events that had occurred during Timo's sleep.

"Boss, no, you've got such a big scene to welcome me when I wake up?and this kind of good thing, then I have to participate! these damn bastards should kill them all!" said Teemo in a circle of excitement in the air.

"Don't be stupid, you guy, this is a mortal situation, at least my mortal situation, you don't need to get involved......"

In the quiet building of the college, the voices of conversation became quieter and quieter.

The next day, Thor still finished his morning classes on time, as he did these days at the academy. It's just that at lunchtime, I didn't see Anne Baez and Lorna, these two little shiitake mushrooms, and I didn't come for the final farewell.

Then all afternoon, Thor quietly leaned back in his room, silently waiting for the night to come.

As night approached, Thor looked solemn and changed into his black coat.

Warriors, finally able to die in battle.

Cecily's carriage arrived on time, and she dressed up to invite Thor to get on board.

"You have a good temperament in this dress, but it doesn't seem to be quite suitable for the next occasion. Cecily looked at Thor and couldn't help but comment.

Thor smiled nonsensically, just tilting his head to look out the window.
