Chapter 413: Nickname: Lady with Feet
As Kael'thas returned to the venue after changing his clothes, the first stage of the banquet was over, and the second stage of the dance session followed.
Although Sarean was not very interested in this, he returned to the venue with a thoughtful Sylvanas out of the sake of Kael'thas's face.
Sylvanas just doesn't like intriguing political games, that doesn't mean she doesn't have a bad brain.
With Sarjan's personal relationship with Kael'thas and his status as the commander of an army, Sylvanas didn't think he was making a fuss.
But because of this, Sylvanas's heart was full of confusion.
The Yongge Forest is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the only southern exit is directly bordered by the Stratholme Province of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and there is no room for external expansion around the country.
In this case, the only place where troops can be used is overseas, but from the perspective of the Ranger General, he can't find a suitable target for a while.
'Kalimdor? Or the Broken Isles? ’
After returning to the venue, Sylvanas still looked preoccupied, which attracted the attention of his mother, Riresa.
Just as he was about to ask the waiter for a little drink to moisten his throat, Sarjan suddenly saw the faint smile in Kael'thas looking at him, and his muscles tensed subconsciously, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
'You're ...... You won't want to fix me, will you? ’
As the host of the banquet, Kael'thas followed the usual practice of saying a meaningless rebuke, which roughly means that everyone eats, drinks, and has fun.
As Kael'thas announces the start of the ball, the men and women in attendance quickly find their prey and dance to the music on their shoulders with each other.
Using the stealth technique he had learned from Valeera, Salian deliberately lowered his presence in order to sneak aside and eat and drink.
"Ahem~"
Kael'thas called his name with a smirk at this point.
"Earl Deep Shadow, none of the participants today have brought male and female companions to the venue, so you should find a dance partner to dance a song."
Sarren: "??? ”
'It's hard to tear down, man! ’
Kael'thas had a closeness to Sarean that anyone present could see.
The bigwigs at home and abroad all looked at Salian with interest, looking forward to the performance of the new king's henchman.
Kael'thas was once a gentleman of all sincerity...... Commonly known as honest people, I don't know when it started, honest people have also learned badly, and occasionally engage in some harmless pranks.
Saljan doesn't believe that Kael'thas doesn't know about his situation, but he still sticks to his nature as a funman, hoping to see something interesting happen in this boring ball.
The small talk between Sarean and Sylvanas in the small garden gave Kael'thas a sudden inspiration.
He was going to give it a try, and with Valilla and Stella Goussa not around, Saléan would invite someone to be his dance partner.
'TNND, are you playing with me?' ’
Saléan gritted his teeth and looked at the gloating Kael'thas with some gritted teeth, but finally couldn't hold his arms on his thighs and began to choose a suitable dance partner under the watchful eye of everyone.
One thing to say, although after Kael'thas officially ascended the throne, Sarren's status is destined to be greatly improved.
However, due to the fact that he was not rooted in the domestic cultivation forces in the early years, there were really not many high-level women in Quel'Salas he knew.
'Carbonia, Solanlian...... pass, I'm not familiar. ’
'Liadrin, good choice, it makes sense for the boss and subordinates to dance ballroom dancing, so choose ......'
"I'll do it."
Just as Sarren looked at Adjutant Chenfeng, who was dressed up in full attendance, someone took the initiative to stand up unexpectedly.
Kael'thas, who was the initiator, also looked at the person who happened in surprise, and exhaled softly unconsciously.
"Wow~ That's a ...... It's unexpected. ”
Kael'tham's exclamation seemed to be spreading like a virus, and everyone present immediately followed suit, and a "wow" sound sounded at the scene, making Sarjan's scalp tingle.
"You...... Earnest? ”
Saljan looked at Sylvanas who took the initiative to stand up, and the expression on his face was a little painful.
Judging by Sylvanas's pretended calm expression and slightly flustered eyes, her mood was not as calm as it seemed.
Silvermoon Councillor Liresa Windranger also stood by and watched, her expression a little helpless compared to that of the other guests with shocked faces, pressing her fingers on her temples as if she were having a headache.
'Although I told you to find a dance partner to do a perfunctory...... But is it necessary to find someone so noticeable? ’
In the opinion of the straight-tempered Sylvanas, it is better to find an acquaintance to deal with it casually than to complete the mandatory tasks issued by his mother anyway.
Catch someone’s eye? Whatever it takes to me Sylvanas.
Anyway, after the banquet, she would return to the familiar southern part of the forest, and the gossip news and all kinds of disturbances in Silvermoon City had nothing to do with her.
"Seriously, of course."
In order to hide her nervousness, Sylvanas, who was dressed in an evening dress, deliberately raised her head slightly, pretending to be arrogant, and stretched out her snow-white left hand to Sarjan.
"What? Do you want to refuse a lady's invitation to dance? ”
"Ah, this ......"
Out of the corner of his eye, Sarean glanced at the others' reactions.
The vast majority of people, including Kael'thas, have a look on their faces.
'Gan! No matter how much he does, it's just a ballroom dance! ’
As it turned out, Salian was naïve.
……
"Hiss~"
After the dance, Sarean felt like her feet were about to be trampled unconscious.
You know, Sylvanas is wearing slender heels today.
“…… You wouldn't mean it, would you? ”
Although the Windranger is contemptuously called a mud-legged nobleman by the nobles of Silvermoon City, he is also a Earl family.
Even a person like Saljan, who was not interested in communicating, was forced by his father to learn ballroom dancing when he was a child, and he did not believe that the Windranger family would have a lack of education in this area.
Sylvanas's expression was unnatural, and Riresa was glaring at her angrily in a corner of the dance floor with a dark face.
"I really haven't studied...... Or rather, I didn't learn it by heart. ”
Sylvanas helplessly helped Saljan to the sideline and sat down: "Didn't you let me fool around last time?" I thought I'd never use such a flashy skill as dancing in my life, who knows......"
Last time, it was because Riresa was not on the scene, and Sylvanas was lucky enough to escape, but this time it was not so easy.
In the current Windranger family, Riresa is the patriarch.
Even Aurelia, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, did not dare to blow up in front of her, let alone Sylvanas.
Due to the stubborn temper that Sylvanas has developed since childhood, she will be touched by her every dance class, and she will be severely punished by Liresa every time.
But in the face of a person who lies flat and mocks, no matter how much she is pressed, it makes no sense.
After many punishments to no avail, Riresa finally gave up reluctantly.
This time, she wanted her second daughter, who had almost 0 dancing skills, to make a big fool in front of everyone.
Knowing her daughter Mo Ruomu, although Sylvanas has a stubborn temper, she is a good-looking person, and she is ridiculed in front of countless people, and she will be ashamed of it, and she secretly practices ballroom dancing in private.
Liresa's calculation succeeded, but she didn't expect the effect to be so outstanding, nor did she expect this humiliating dance to attract so much attention.
Seeing Sarjan's limping appearance, Sylvanas gritted his teeth and made up his mind to practice his dancing skills, at least not to stare at the feet of his dance partner like this.
Fortunately, Sarean recovered amazingly, and after only sitting for a short while, he quickly relieved the pain and was able to move freely again.
The dance party continued, and many foreign visitors chose the High Elves as their dance partners, asking about the identity of the peerless lady who stepped on her feet.
The teasing title of Lady of the Footsteps would probably stay with Sylvanas for a long time until she washed away the shame at the next feast.
"Although the process was not very good, we both completed the tasks assigned above."
Saljan took a glass of magic wine from the waiter's hand and toasted Sylvanas, who was still apologetic.
"Long live the fish."
“…… Long live the fish. ”
