"Hooked? What does that mean? And who is this?' The sudden appearance of Rusa made Monasse instantly alert, but seeing the way Rusa's eyes looked and what she called Atvance, Monasse also understood the situation in front of her.

"Rusa, my men. I'm sorry I didn't tell you that Rusha will come with me, but I think I need a subordinate who is in the shadows so that my actions can be carried out more smoothly, and Rusha is the right one."

Atlance introduces Monasse to Rusa.

"It doesn't seem like the right time for you to come back." Despite this, Artevans still secretly said this to Rusa.

"I'm sorry, Master Artevans, I was careless." Rusha was similarly calm, but apologized to Artevans with her thoughts.

"Forget it, it's not too much of a problem to let him know, what you observe, just say it, and let Monasse listen to it." Artevans sighed softly, he had planned to be in the shadows of Aruba the entire time, both to the nobles and the royal family.

In the philosophy of Atvance, the more information you have, the more security you can have.

Even though he had decided to join forces with the royal family, Artevans still chose to be wary of the royal family. Trust is a luxury for Artevans.

"The invitation has been sent to Pochadon, and Lebit has accepted." Rusa said, pausing, and then continued, "There are many corpses in the corner of Pochadon."

"I don't seem to understand that." Monasse was clearly puzzled by the message that Rusha was conveying, and he couldn't find important information in Rusa's short and vague words.

"In that case, let me explain." Atfans smiled, "With the consent of His Highness Daisey and Selban, we intend to invite every nobleman and some of their minor leaders to the main city for a ball tonight. Of course, the reason we use is to celebrate your success, Monasse, in gathering an army against the Necromancy, and to do it for you."

"I'm not sure they'll all agree, though, but Lebitt has already agreed. My main goal has fallen into the net.'" As he spoke, Artevans placed a small box on the table and pushed it in front of Monasse.

Monasse opened the box, which contained a piece of ice that emitted strange energy. Although it is bornefol, it does not seem to be made of water condensation, but more like a special substance, and the ice flakes do not melt, and the coolness cannot be felt from the ice chips.

Placed next to the ice chips are several very small beads, emitting the exact opposite energy of the ice chips, and seem to be blocking the energy flow of the ice chips at the same time.

"For tonight's ball, this piece of ice will be disguised as a decoration and placed in the ballroom. His Highness needs to let his people take a bead so as not to be accidentally injured by ice chips. Of course, the ice chips are not aggressive, but they will just cause the guests to fall into a little confusion."

After Artevans explained the purpose of the ice chips, Monasse was probably able to guess what Artevans was trying to do. But when he thought that Artevans had crossed him and gone directly to discuss with Daise, Monasse was still a little dissatisfied.

However, Monasse is not ignorant of current affairs, he knows that the spiritual power of the Netherworld is generally poor, and the demons who are born with a higher spiritual power, even the most ordinary spiritual magic weapons, are very easy to have an effect on the Netherworld.

Although judging from Artfans' description and the other party's current expression, Artevans does not intend to explain more, but since he chose to find demons to assist him in the first place, Monasse can only trust Artfans. Judging from the brief contact with Atfans, Monasse felt that the other party was not a frivolous person.

"So, let me see what your plans are." Monasse smiled, took a bead from the box, and put it in his mouth.

————————————

Time always passes unconsciously, and in the blink of an eye, it is evening, and the dance party begins.

Although the underworld has dark green skies and gray-black clouds, day and night are not as blurry as those of the Underworld. Over time, the dark green sky will gradually turn gray-black, and the gray-black clouds will gradually turn dark green to indicate the transition from day to night. When the night turns back to day, the colors on both sides will be reversed.

An ornate building located in the south of the Netherworld is a dance hall built to satisfy the entertainment of the powerful. It had not been opened for a long time since the death of the Old Emperor, and tonight, the ballroom was lit up again.

The ice chips embedded in the chandelier in the center of the ballroom continue to emit an alluring fragrance with the warm glow of the chandelier.

The invited guests had already entered, most of them were cronies of other nobles, and Lebit and his men were almost the first to arrive. As soon as he entered the ballroom, he anxiously searched for the figure of the woman during the day.

Artevans stood in the corner of the ballroom, observing everything that was happening here. However, to Artfans' surprise, what he considered to be the most cautious and the most difficult to deal with was also here, followed by another nobleman, Fitia.

The two didn't make eye contact in the process, but judging by their near-identical pace, Artevans thought they should have come together.

(It seems that there are cases of nobles joining forces to compete for the throne, but it is really interesting to see if they will eventually fight each other.) ）

Atfans kept an eye out for every guest entering the room, and although Kinparo's presence was unexpected by Atfans, as he expected, Sully and Flami did not come.

As the lights converged at one point, a neatly dressed Monasse walked to the main stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in two days, I will lead my troops to the territory of the Necrons and make them disappear from this world forever. And today, I invite you all here to wish you a great victory in this battle. Well, I won't say more nonsense, so please have fun."

Monasse made a "please" gesture, and the guests danced in pairs as the Netherworld's unique music sounded.

After some searching, Leibit finally found the woman named Ace. Under the illumination of some dim lights, with the perfectly matched blue and white dress, Ace's temperament and face rose to a new level. Lebit's heart seemed to be beating out.

"Little beauty, I finally found you, the agreement during the day, I don't know if you still remember." Lebit stepped up and tried to take Ace's hand.

"Lord Lebit really keeps his promise...... Ace nimbly dodged the hand that Lebit tried to catch, "But I'm sorry, I can't be your dance partner for the time being, and if you're willing to wait, I promise to be with you to the end."

"Do you already have a dance partner?" Lebbit's face instantly darkened.

"Yes." Ace smiled in response, gesturing ahead of herself.

Leibit looked in the direction Ace was pointing, and Daisey walked slowly with a smile on his face.

A white dress matched Dai Erse's figure, making him look a little more handsome, and his hands without a trace of flaws were wearing pure white gloves, which added a bit of gentlemanly feeling.

I saw Daisey walk up to Ace, with one hand behind his back, the other hand stretched out towards Ace, leaning forward and bending down slightly.

"This beautiful young lady, I wonder if I can dance with you." Daisey's face is definitely an existence that can charm thousands of girls, and with that gentle voice, it is difficult not to be moved by this.

"Your Highness Daiusse, it doesn't seem polite to wear gloves when inviting ladies to dance with." Ace smiled too, but she picked out what she thought was wrong with the almost perfect man in front of her.

"How can I allow my own hands to defile your immaculate skin with such an elegant and beautiful lady as you? But if you don't like that, then I choose to respect your lady's opinion.'" As he spoke, Daiser took off his gloves.

But before he could do anything, Ace put her hand on Daisey's palm.

"Since Your Highness has his own way of being a gentleman, then I should also respect you." Ace stood up, rolled up the hem of her skirt, and made a curtsey to Daisey, "Your Highness, please."

Daisey nodded politely, gently pulled Ace in front of him, and put his free hand around Ace's waist, which had no fat at all, and followed the music, driving the other party out of the graceful dance steps.

"The Great Prince...... looked at everything in front of him, and Lebit gritted his teeth. Seeing the beautiful woman in his hands leave, Leibit felt very unwilling. But the other party is Dai Usser, the great prince of the Netherworld, and even in the eyes of the commoners of the noble territory, he is a highly respected existence. Thinking of this, Leibit had no choice but to give up, expecting Ace to do what she had promised.

"Your Excellency seems to be in some distress...... a sudden voice sounded behind Lebit.

Lebit turned around and saw an equally tall and handsome man walking towards him, and this man was Artfans. But from Atfans, Lebit felt something completely different from Daisey.

"I'm one of the people in charge of this ball, and I aim to make sure that every guest has the right dance partner. If you don't mind, this lady will want to dance with you.'" Artevans said, gracefully stepping out of his way, and Rusha appeared in front of Lebit's eyes behind her.

At this time, Ai Rusha was wearing a black dress, which matched Ai Rusha's delicate face, and even had a noble and cold queen style.

"Oh! Iceberg Beauty!' Leibit's eyes lit up again, and he even left Ace completely behind, walked up to Rusha in three steps and two steps, and took Rusa's hand.

Rusa frowned subconsciously, but Artevans passed behind her, leaving a soft message that made Rusa struggle to pretend to be calm.

"Well, I hope you enjoy it." Artevans said, and left.

"Ma'am, please." Lebit pretended to be a gentleman and made a move.

Rusha sighed helplessly in her heart, even though she didn't know how to dance at all, she had to complete Artfans's orders. Now, she can only follow the pace of Leibit completely, showing off her clumsy dancing skills.

On the other side, Daisey and Ace were dancing in the center of the ballroom, and their beautiful and tacit dancing made them seem to have become the center of attention. Ace cooperated with Daisey's dance steps and caught a glimpse of Rusha dancing with Leibit, and couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth.

"Everything is going on as expected......
