It was hard for people to not look at Alfonso's way, not only because of Alfonso himself but for Deter. In ti like this, one would expect that Alfonso sohow learned how to dance and they demonstrated a beautiful yet unprepared choreography, but…
Reality was cruel…
"Ouch! Alfonso you are stomping !"
"So-sorry"
"You can't dance because you have that cane with you!"
"I won't deny it"
"Drop it!"
"Never!"
"You… you are being childish!"
"Maybe, but I won't release it!"
"A-L-F-O-N-S-O!"
Both of them discussed for so ti before staring at each other and then…
"HAHAHAHAHA"
Both of busted in laugh.
"Alfonso, sotis you are act so childish!" Said Deter between laughs.
"Haha, maybe" Laughed Alfonso.
Not only Alfonso and Deter were the focus of attention, a couple of centiters away from them, a couple of couples were also the talk of everyone.
"Mr. Dionysius, I know that I promise that I would dance with you but…"
"Hmm…"
"Can you stop burying yourself on my breasts?" Asked Rebecca helplessly.
"Is not my fault! I am small, so my head involuntary posed itself in your breast! That's right! This can't be helped!" Said Dionysius without one bit of sha.
"…" Rebecca was speechless.
In front of them, another couple was dancing… in a funny way.
"Where do you think you are touching!?" Asked Anastasia.
"My lady, I am grabbing your waist!"
"You are hundred years too early to grab my waist!"
"Then, where do I grab you?"
"I will allow you to grab my foot"
"…" Hans was speechless.
And behind them…
"I-I I am sorry, this is my first dancing, so…"
"Don't worry, my princess, just take it slowly" Said Artemis with a handso smile.
The other girls at her surroundings felt a couple of arrows piercing towards their heart when hey looked at Artemis smile. They looked at their own couples and compared…
"Alas, comparisons are too cruel" Though all the girls.
Anyway, Alfonso's group was having their own pleasure ti on the party, even Susana, who couldn't dance, started small conversations with so scholars that were acquaintances of her back when she studied in Dragon Academy.
All in all, everyone was having a good ti, well…. Almost all of them.
.....................…
[anwhile, in the inner side of the manor]
"Why can't I go to the party!?"
"Miss Mummy… please understand…" Said one guard helplessly.
"Who are you calling a mummy!? My na is Aphrodite, A-P-H-R-O-D-I-T-E"
"I am sorry for being disrespectful, Miss Aphrodite, however, this party is very important to his majesty and Mr.Lockheart, so, if soone with your… extravagant appearance where to appear, it will sure cause a commotion" Said Aphrodite.
"Ugh!"
"B-But Mr. Lockheart told that he would co to fetch you as soon as the party ends"
"Really?" Said Aphrodite with a pitiful voice.
"Y-yeah" Said the guard.
"I understand, then, I will be a good girl, I promise, but…"
"But?
"Can't you untie ? It's hurting my hands" Said Aphrodite.
"B-b-but it was an order from Mr. Lockheart…"
"Don't worry, I am the most trustful woman you can find, I promise that I won't escaped" Said Aphrodite.
The guard looked at Aphrodite suspiciously.
"I am telling the true! Surely, you, a handso and gentle guard won't bully a little girl like , right?" Said Aphrodite with an even more pitiful voice.
The guard was touched, he was about to untie Aphrodite when he rember sothing, he took out a small cards.
"Aphrodite might try to say sothing like: 'Don't worry, I am the most trustful woman you can find, I promise that I won't escaped' or 'I am telling the true! Surely, you, a handso and gentle guard won't bully a little girl like , right' , don't listen to her, she is lying.
Artemis.
Ps: In ti like this, tell her this…"
"Shut up, you whore" Repeated the guard.
"What?"
"I- it's, it's what is written on the notes" Said the guard.
"What notes!?"
"The ones that Mr. Artemis left with …" Said the guard.
"ARTEMIS, you fucking bitch, you will pay for this!" Swore Aphrodite.
.....................…
While everyone at the party was having a good ti, soone was anxiously looking at one specific couple.
"My lord, are you sure about this? It isn't too late"
"I don't have another option, Ulter, when I took the loan from lord Leopold, my destiny was sealed" Said the man.
"But… my lord, if you do this… who is going to take care of miss and your son? He is still young" Said Ulter.
"You know the situation… if I don't do this… they will die" Said the man with a defeated expression.
"My lord! If… if you do this, you will get yourself killed" Said Ulter with a mix of sadness and anger.
"That's the plan…" Said the man with a bitter smile.
"I won't ask you to co with , Ulter, you have been by mi side since I was a brat, you are my family" Said the man.
"I will follow my lord, even in death" Said Ulter with conviction.
The man turned to look at Ulter, he had so tears on his eyes, but, soon enough, he wiped them, it was not the ti to be sentintal.
"No, Ulter, you have to life, when the tis cos, you will leave to Inferno City"
"My lord!"
"Who is going to take care of my wife and son if you are gone?" Said the man.
"My lord…"
"This is my last order as your lord, please, Ulter" Said the man.
Ulter looked at the man sitting at his side, he was forty sothing years old, his appearance didn't reflect his age, he was tall and had so grey on his hair.
"Ulter, I will take action when the song ends, rember to call the dog of Leopold to watch closely, if we do this right, they will let family go by the end of the night" Said the man.
"That so of a bitch" Ulter eyes beco red with fury when his lord ntion the dog of Leopold.
"Forget about revenge, Ulter, we ca touch the dog without the owner taking actions, at that ti, not even god will save my family" Said the man.
"I understand…" Said Ulter with defeat.
The song ended and the couples when back to their seats, Ulter looked at the couple and breathed deeply.
"It's ti" Though the man.
He walked towards the couple with a smile on his face.
"Hello, it's a privilege to finally et you, Mr. Lockheart" Said the man.
Alfonso turned around to look at the man.
"My na is Griftor, I am the head of the Actenios family in Inferno City"
