Claire was wearing a violet dress dress, the silk dress fit the body, showing her perfect curves, between the snow-white collarbones, there was a bright silver pendant, which was an ornament she carried, Claire's long blonde hair was coiled up at the back of her head, tied with a ribbon, in fact, originally, this skirt did not have much special, but it matched Claire very well, revealing her charm undoubtedly.

"Who is this, I don't think I've seen it on a mercury scale before." "New joining, perhaps?" "Is she alone, should I invite her to do a dance?" "It's not as good as those mages who use magic to maintain their faces, but such innocent beauty is rare."

In the eyes of many men, Claire walked slowly, and when she arrived in front of Reiner, everyone's doubts were explained.

It turned out that Reiner was the one who was waiting for her.

Claire didn't know if it was because of the atmosphere of the banquet or for some other reason, her cheeks flushed faintly, and she lowered her eyes and looked at Reiner.

"I—I'm not used to this kind of occasion."

"Pretty good for you."

Reiner reached out and took Claire's right hand, causing her to lift her head slightly.

"Of course, it might be the buffet table over there that might be more suitable for you."

"No, don't make fun of me."

Claire also lost her former momentum, and turned her face slightly, like a budding bud, delicate and beautiful.

"So."

When Reiner saw Claire's appearance, he also restrained his prank mood and lowered his head slightly.

"Would you like to dance with me, this lovely young lady?"

"I—I'm not very good at dancing."

Claire was still hesitating, but the dance music was already playing in the banquet.

Not all mages are only concerned with magic, many of them were originally born into nobles, and some have gradually precipitated artistic inspiration in their long lives and turned it into real objects.

For example, the famous playboy, Ludwig. His Excellency Stein, in addition to his fame for his romances, was also known for his artistic talents, both in painting and in music, and it can be said that even in his magical achievements, he could be famous throughout the continent in art alone.

The piece now being played is by His Excellency Stein, a soothing dance piece that is said to have been composed by His Excellency Stein after he had married a nobleman's daughter, and was often played as a repertoire for the mages' banquets.

On one side of the ballroom, a peculiar band was playing this piece, and there were no musicians in front of a piano, only black and white keys beating on their own, and behind the piano, violins and various orchestral instruments were also suspended in mid-air as if they were alive.

At the end of the band, a mage is waving his hands and controlling the rhythm of the band.

On the dance floor in front of the band, men and women are dancing to the rhythm, and it's easy to spot that some of the dance partners are not very skilled at the pace and seem to be usually out of touch.

Reiner and Claire came to the dance floor, and he spread his hands and motioned for Claire to lean over.

"I won't, don't dislike me."

Claire was reluctant to speak, but her body still leaned over honestly, she gently held Reiner's hand with one hand, and the other hand was on his shoulder, and Reiner's hand gently wrapped around Claire's slender waist, and when the palm touched Claire's back, she trembled slightly.

As soon as the song ended, many people on the dance floor left to rest, and new people joined in, including Reiner and Claire.

At this close distance, Reiner's breath hit Claire's face, causing her heart to beat faster, and from this angle, she saw Reiner different from the past, calm, restrained, like a true elegant gentleman.

Claire's balled ball of yarn was still thinking about how to dance the dance steps she had seen a long, long time ago, when the music began to sound again.

It's just that, I don't know if it's deliberate or accidental, this piece is different from the previous soothing, it seems more exciting, and the sense of rhythm is stronger, which makes Claire panic suddenly.

"It's okay, I'll teach you, follow my steps."

Reiner moved with his body's memory and led Claire to the dance.

"Huh?"

Claire panicked for fear that she would make a mistake and step on Reiner, but soon she found that she and Reiner's dance seemed to be in perfect harmony.

The two dance to the rhythm on the dance floor, with the handsome Reiner and the pretty Claire quickly catching the eye.

"I seem to have learned."

Claire muttered to herself, unaware of the smile on Reiner's lips.

Claire's original dance steps were naturally a mess, and if they were allowed to develop, they might eventually evolve into a crazy dance of primitives, but on the one hand, Reiner himself had superb dancing skills and could guide Claire to move, on the other hand, he also secretly used the magic he had just developed to cheer Claire, and whenever she made a mistake, Ian Gray's magic suit would use a gentle way to stop Claire, so that she would naturally move to the right pace.

Therefore, even Claire herself was unaware of the impact, and thought that her old dancing memories had been revived.

At this time, the melody entered the chorus, and before Claire could react, she was gently pushed out by Reiner, and then with a pull, she spun and fell into Reiner's arms, and the two bodies were tightly fit, intimate.

Claire's mind was like a fawn, her mind was blank, and even her movements seemed to be instinctive, and she couldn't even remember what the dance steps were like after that.

At the end of the song, Claire gasped slightly, dancing in a dress and dress was not an easy matter, her cheeks were flushed, and she looked extremely shy.

There was another soothing interlude, and the people on the dance floor slowed down slightly, and Claire leaned on Reiner a little weakly, not too concerned with the previous shyness.

"It's not that hard to dance, is it?"

Reiner whispered in Claire's ear, the warm breath lingering in Claire's ear, causing her to feel a slight tingling, as if she would fall on Reiner the next moment.

"I just want to eat well now."

Claire sighed, stared at the assortment of food next door, and swallowed.

The quality of the food is naturally not bad, all kinds of rare ingredients are cooked in a special way, and the aroma is attractive, but most of the mages are already a little aesthetically tired of these foods, they are not very particular about the appetite of the tongue, and the most popular wine at the banquet is red wine.

"Then let's go eat."

Reiner smiled, and then saw Claire, who was tired from dancing, and her eyes lit up.
