The Elemental Sword Demon King
Episode 120: The Dance Party Ruckus
Then, he glared at Kaizo this time, "Kaizo, you too?!"
Kaizo stiffened at that moment and asked, "What's up, Eve?"
Thinking that he was going to preach, Kaizo was let down. Eve slightly blushed, and linked her fingers timidly in front of her chest slowly.
"E-Erm, even a suit suits you and surprises me. I think that's what they mean by 'that outfit makes a guy look cool'."
"Is that so? I'm not too comfortable in a suit, but..." While scratching his head timidly, Kaizo looked at the appearance of Eve wearing a dress.
What she was wearing was a brilliant clean white dress. In contrast to Eve's dashing image, this was a very childish dress laid out with many frills.
"Eve, yours is for you too. Like you look like a princess and you look cute."
"What?!" Twintail's hair is broken.
"Ah, uh, no-no way, a-I'm cute," Eve flushed and became panicked.
"Yes, Kaizo!"
"Kaizo?"
Tiana and Aura glared at him.
"A-what's up?"
"It looks like the rumors are true, Kirigaya Kaizo."
When Kaizo turned to the biting sound of words, a girl he knew stared intently at him.
"You-you!?"
She had a blue dress with a dragon emblem on the chest area. He had been wearing a hat with fur attached to it. As the captain of the Dragon Emperor Knight, he was a Draconian hero.
【 Viona Spellister 】
"As I thought, I should have cut it off by then." While Viona was glaring at Kaizo, she regretfully bit her lip. A chill runs through Kaizo's spine.
"Dragon Princess, Viona Spellister, I've heard rumors lately about you," suddenly, Eve placed her hand on her chest, faced her, and saluted as a knight.
"And you?"
"Representative of the Nizuan Princess Academy, Eve Veilmist."
"The veilmist?! That Lucia Eva's sister?"
Eve raised her head and nodded, "This time, big brother did not participate due to some circumstances, but I have heard that you are a pure and selfless knight. I'm glad to be able to cross swords with a knight like you," he faced Viona and extended his dominant hand.
"It looks like great knights exist even in the empire." Viona smiled, and clasped her hands without hesitation.
With the two of them being fellow knights, they might have some things where they can empathize with each other.
(Of course, both are like glue.) Kaizo made a wry smile in his heart.
"However, that's very regrettable. A great knight like you is kept as Kirigaya Kaizo's lover."
"Hey, wait a minute," Kaizo shouted in confusion.
(In-she, what did she say!)
"Ah, lover!?" Eve blushed to her ear and shouted, "why don't you know her embarrassment, I-I'm her lover?"
"That's right, Eve. Please refuse!"
"I, I'm not her lover, but if Kaizo wants it, I will..."
(Eh? Why is he muttering like that?)
"What a scary kid. You even ruined such a great knight."
"I don't mean that! Eve, please quickly resolve this misunderstanding!"
"Hidden! A-are you not satisfied with me being your lover?!"
"What did you say!?" Kaizo retaliated, and at that moment, a small commotion broke out at the entrance of the hall.
"The girl has finally come." Aura muttered.
Kaizo quickly looked towards the entrance. The one at the center of the commotion was the girl he was very familiar with.
"Victoria!?"
Victoria Blade, who was wearing a deep red dress. Her red ponytail hair was tied with ribbons. He was wearing polished red high heels.
Clamping the side of her skirt with the rope attached, she entered the hall. His chest is small, but strangely his balanced proportions are captivating.
She was a beautiful girl, beautiful as a rose and noble like a wild cat. Victoria's appearance fascinated Kaizo to the point of taking her breath.
She had such brilliance that she overshadowed the surrounding girls who were dressed up. He didn't just charm Kaizo. Everyone in the hall let out a breath of admiration.
"As expected of sister Monica. She was born beautiful."Tiana shrugged her shoulders, irritated that she was losing to beauty.
"It's been a long time since I've seen Victoria in a dress." Aura slightly opened her mouth.
The commotion in the hall was getting bigger.
"Hey, is that red-haired girl also a representative of the Sword Style Festival."
"Um, so this is what they mean by a spirit that likes a pure and beautiful girl, it's true."
"Hey, aren't you going to invite someone to the dance?"
It seemed like a group of young nobles were staring intensely at Victoria. All the whispers exchanged made Kaizo slightly annoyed at them.
At that moment, Victoria turned her head, and their eyes met.
"Victoria..."
Just as he was about to call out to her, he immediately threw away his face, so he swallowed his words.
(Sounds he's still angry.)
Losing time to call out to him, Kaizo stood still. Victoria ignored the nobles who glanced at her, and walked towards the middle. He began to hear such voices from within the commotion there.
"That red hair is like that fire, don't tell me, she's the daughter of that Duke Lionstein family?"
"The sister of the Disaster Queen who brought disaster to the Eldant Empire?"
"Bad sign, she's a demon girl."
It seems like there are people who know the Victorian bloodline among the participants who attended the dance. The whispers of unrest spread like wildfire.
It wasn't that she couldn't hear them, but Victoria remained calm. Then, a young noble stepped forward in front of him and spoke to him.
"Will you dance with me, fire-haired lady?"
The atmosphere looked frivolous, but he was quite a handsome man. He seemed to be a very high-ranking person even among the nobles as he led a group of followers around him.
"Hey, hey, are you serious?"
"Young master, I'm also worried you're playing with fire."
His friends made bitter smiles. The boy seemed to be a noble of a country.
"Why is he..." Kaizo groaned from deep in his throat.
He could not see the sincerity of someone asking for a dance in the boy's expression. It's just that she found out about Victoria as the sister of the Disaster Queen, and called out to her out of interest.
(Victoria.).
"I'm sorry, but I have to refuse." Victoria coldly refused the boy's invitation.
It's natural. That hellish salamander girl would not even be emotionally attached to anyone.
"What was that?" One of the followers looked daunted.
"Well, well, it's okay to have such strong-willed girls every once in a while." The boy nodded, full of calmness, and forcefully grabbed Victoria's arm.
"Now, pretty girl, I'm gonna kiss your hand."
"Huh?" Victoria tensed.
(What do you think, you stupid noble!?)
As a princess maiden elementalist, a kiss is the most sacred ceremony of the spirit contract. Even if it was at hand, it was inexcusable to ask thoughtlessly for it. With his brute action, sounds of commotion occurred even from the surroundings.
"Don't touch me!" Victoria shouted sharply.
Normally, she would act tough, but the truth was that she was a young woman who was unfamiliar with men. His voice is a little shaky. Not being able to just watch, Kaizo was about to leave, but it was like unnecessary.
"What do you think you're doing. I am the crown prince of the Kingdom of Graisya."
"No, release! You're..." A high-pitched voice echoed in the hall. Victoria slapped the boy. He then turned around and ran towards the entrance of the hall.
"Damn it slapped me in the face."
"The uncivilized girl."
"That's because she's the sister of the Queen of Disasters."
Crown Prince Graisya and his followers uttered words of criticism.
(You should be thankful that you didn't turn into ashes!) Kaizo curses and then he chases Victoria.
"Wait, Victoria!"
"Kaizo!" Aura grabbed his arm.
"Aura, why did you stop me?!"
"I'm going to go."
"But..."
"Kaizo, if you who are in the middle of a fight go, it will only make things complicated. After all, I was his childhood friend, so I understood the girl."
Kaizo thought for a few seconds and replied, "I understand. I will entrust Victoria to you," she obediently nodded. Aura ran after Victoria.
At this moment, Tiana responsibly whispered into his ear, "Kaizo..."
"What?"
"He's here."
"Him?" Kaizo.
A commotion, which was much larger than the one just now, occurred near the entrance of the hall. The person with the highest profile in this round's Sword Style Festival had appeared. The sound of hard shoes rang out, and he walked in.
She was wearing a jet black dress like the reigning queen at night. She was a black haired girl with her face covered by a dark red mask. He was the Strongest Sword Style Holder, Rei Assar.
