Volume 1 The Storm Chapter 42 The Ball

According to the rules of the ball, a person cannot go to the ball with his dance partner. They won't be able to get back together until the prom officially begins.

So, after dressing up, I first rode to the national university in a pre-booked steam locomotive.

This is the housekeeper's modified clothes using the formal clothes that Ludwig gave me. Whatever it is, it's also my favorite formal wear. Not to mention that the housekeeper is really ingenious, and I feel that this dress looks even better than the original.

It feels perfectly fitted when you wear it.

The school has a dedicated venue for proms. After several parents of the students in this grade were sponsored, the space was cleaned and redecorated.

There's also a variety of high-end drinks and food, and like a buffet, the ingredients are as exquisite as the one I ate in the kingdom of Rothschild.

It is said that among those parents, some are ministers of a country's departments, and some are the richest people in a certain country, and this is a piece of cake for their financial resources.

Not only that, but they also invited the most famous Duke Band in the Duchy of Lorrain to play music. It's extremely grand.

I handed the invitation to the attendant standing in the doorway, who saluted me politely.

When I arrived at the ballroom, there were already people gathered and talking. I didn't have the heart to get to know anyone, so I walked straight to the food truck, started picking up the plates, and then hid in a corner and sat down to eat.

As time passed, the night gradually took over the entire sky, and the galaxy walked in the sky. To coincide with the prom, today's schools have turned off their lights except for the library and the necessary street lights. Let the colors of the starry sky envelop the world.

The candles in the ballroom were lit by the attendants, and the soft yellow candlelight was sprinkled in all directions. The band began to prepare to play, and the people standing outside began to enter the ballroom one after another.

When the ball was about to begin, the attendants closed the door to the ballroom, isolating the outside world from the inside.

The steam air conditioner operates to maintain the temperature in the room in a stable and comfortable range.

As the band changed from soothing music to cheerful tunes, the dance party officially began.

According to the rules, men were to stand in the hall downstairs and wait for their female companions to come down from the second floor.

I wasn't in a hurry, because Kirsten had said he would come down at the last minute, so I took advantage of this time to fill my stomach a little and help her prepare a little heart.

The clock was fast approaching.

Kirsten walked down with the handrail. She seemed to be putting on high heels for the first time, and she was still a little uncomfortable.

The black gown tightly wrapped around her golden proportion-like body, and her slender legs loomed in the long hem of her skirt.

I never thought she was so beautiful.

The prosthetic leg of the left hand is shrouded in black veil, which looks very hazy and has a different kind of charm.

The long silver hair is tied into a complex hairstyle, which looks indescribably noble.

A pair of eyes is like the most admired scenery in the world.

Is this still the Kirsten I know? I can't tell, as if I met her for the first time today. I stared at her so blankly that I forgot what I was supposed to do.

Kirsten had to remind me with his eyes. I immediately came to my senses, stepped forward, took her outstretched right hand, and took her aside.

"High heels are so hard!" She grumbled quietly as soon as she sat down.

"I brought your leather shoes, do you want to change them?" I sniffed. I'm also someone who's been through prom and know that women have to go out in high heels. Therefore, there are already preparations for bringing substitutes.

"Of course, bring it quickly. I can't stand these shoes for a moment! ”

I'm going to get an attendant and have him bring over one of the shoeboxes I've deposited and give them to Kirsten.

She removed her high heels, revealing a pair of snow-white and delicate feet, which made me look at it intently, knowing that she had slapped it before I came back to my senses.

"You little pervert." Kirsten quipped. I smirked. It seems that I really did something impolite just now. Really, what's wrong with me? He stared at the demon's feet.

Kirsten changed his shoes and moved. Then she started eating the snacks I had prepared for her in advance.

"I haven't eaten."

"Of course I didn't eat it, how did this dance party go, I didn't even let people eat dinner."

"It's like having you dance a few dances in perfect condition before you eat. After all, dancing will be a bit like that when you're full. "I explained that it was hearsay.

That's something disgusting, and I don't really want to say it at Kirsten's dinner. Although it's a good time to rewhole the person.

"It's really inexplicable, how can you have the energy to dance without a full meal?" Kirsten said puzzled.

"Maybe that's the special trick of those people." I said jokingly. I don't know how those people managed to dance without eating.

Could it be that everyone who is good at social dancing has undergone military training and has developed a physical fitness?

After a glass of grape juice, Kirsten breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, I'm full, let's go dance!" She clapped her hands and said.

Without waiting for me to react, Kirsten pulled me towards the dance floor.

"Let's talk about it first, I only know one or two dances!" I hurriedly said to her. I hope we don't make a fool of ourselves when we dance, it will be embarrassing.

"It's okay, I don't know how to dance a few times anyway." Kirsten replied with a smile, not at all worried.

Finished! We don't seem to be very good at dancing!

I cautiously took Kirsten's hand and danced to the music. She has no scruples, and this will hurt me. Always be careful not to step on her or let her step on me, but also try to keep our movements to the beat.

"Hey, what are you doing so squirming, are you a woman?" Kirsten said with some dissatisfaction, forcibly holding my somewhat stiff hand.

"Please, my eldest lady. It's a social ball, not a private ball. You can't come by nature. As I spoke, I tried not to exaggerate her dancing and prayed that she wouldn't suddenly become willful.

"Okay, okay, listen to you, listen to you. I won't have so many rules for holding a dance party in the future, and everyone can dance as much as they want. She said.

"You can do whatever you like," I chimed in.

We danced, danced a single movement, but we didn't find it boring.

In this dim light, I gradually seemed to lose myself.

Her black gown was like a starry sky, as if all the grandeur and mystery of the world had converged on one person. It's hard to put into words what kind of beauty it is.

In the candlelight, in the music, in the whispers and laughter of the people, she seemed to be the only scenery.

For some reason, my heart began to beat faster, and my eyes met her, and I subconsciously wanted to dodge.

"What do you think?" Kirsten asked, tilting his head slightly, a little puzzled by my dodge.

"You say, if you replace the steam engine that unites the knight's armor with an internal combustion engine... Before I could finish speaking, she pinched my waist a little angrily, and it hurt a little.

"Don't lie Kimchi. When you lie, you like to move on to a serious topic. Tell me, what were you thinking about just now? You don't think about other women when you're dancing with me, are you? No way? "Kirsten stared at me so hard not to tell the truth.

"I, I wonder why I didn't think you were so beautiful, Miss Kirsten?" I whispered.

"Cut, I was thinking about this. What kind of person am I, of course, I don't show myself by showing off my appearance, I rely on my talent. That's why you don't usually notice my charm. Kirsten nodded, pleased with my answer.

You think too much, purely because you've always been like a demon, okay? Who usually notices how beautiful the demon really is when they are around it?

"Yes, yes, you're right." I nodded in agreement.

"Alas, I'm really tired, why are you so tired from dancing." Kirsten and I sat back in the corner, wiping our sweat and hammering our sore legs.

"Dance is a very challenging physical challenge." I sat and drank the grape juice, not tired at all, not even sweating.

Just kidding, I'm a person who can fight for a day on those tragic battlefields, isn't this amount of exercise good enough?

"Okay, I know that you are in good physical condition, so you don't need to be so showy." Kirsten leaned back on the sofa and relaxed. But this pose was a little indecent, and it made me see something that I shouldn't have seen.

I quickly coughed.

"What? Snatched by your own saliva? ”

"There's something wrong with your posture."

Kirsten looked at himself, and did feel that it was not very decent, and sat up again, and straightened his clothes.

"What, blushing?" Kirsten looked at me with a wicked smile.

"No, no." I hurriedly shook my head.

"Hey, what's this. We're friends, so we don't have to be so careful. Blushing is blushing, what's there to hide? ”

"Okay, I did blush, okay." I raised my hands in surrender.

"Am I so attractive? Let's unite the heads of the Knights blushing? ”

"Of course, you're so charismatic. It's just that your talent is too high, and it overshadows your charm for a while. ”

"Ha, you're so good at talking, and you're usually coaxing little girls?" Kirsten said with a smile.

"How is it possible, aren't we usually with you? Where did the opportunity come from. ”

"Oh, too. What's the matter, I think I'm delaying you to mess with flowers? She teased.

"No, no, how dare you?"

The silence came suddenly, and we were all a little caught off guard.

Kirsten suddenly turned his face away, and he didn't know what was wrong.

What's wrong with me? Kirsten wondered, her heartbeat seemed to have become unusual for a moment.

"Let's go, let's go home." After a while, she regained her composure and turned to me.

"Okay, you have the final say."

We left the prom early and got on the reserved steam locomotive to go home.

Since Kirsten's leg was still a little sore, I craved her. Her face seemed to be a little rosy from over-exercise.
