Night falls.
The day has finally come.
Looking at the colorful night scene of the city outside the window, Fang Zheng nodded with satisfaction. This invitation went very smoothly. Not only were all members of the Dark Moon Sword Guild invited to attend, but even the Red Knights and the Dark Nebula also accepted the invitation. Although there were also media outlets that wanted to apply for an interview on this dinner, Fang Zheng rejected the media's request after careful consideration. This was a very private party, and the death game incident had already passed. He didn't want the media to use it to stir up trouble and make big news.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, everything is ready."
Hearing this voice, Fang Zheng turned around and saw Asuna in a dress waving at him as she walked towards him. Next to her was Kuang San in her usual black dress.
"Thank you for your hard work, Kuang San."
Fang Zheng first nodded at Kurumi, then looked at Asuna.
"Then Asuna, I'll leave the welcoming of the guests to you. As the vice president of the Dark Moon Sword, that should be no problem, right?"
"Of course, please leave it to me."
After hearing Fang Zheng's instructions, Asuna nodded and walked towards the elevator.
The banquet was held in the top-floor banquet hall of the new CC Club. Fang Zheng put a lot of effort into this banquet. He spent a large sum of money to decorate the entire banquet hall into the shape of the restaurant where people usually gather in the game. Even the lamps, tables, chairs and food were basically copied from the menus of every victory banquet in the game.
In Fang Zheng's opinion, this is the best place for everyone to celebrate the victory together.
And right now at the banquet, besides Asuna and Kurumi, there are some other little girls.
"I'm going to meet the people who fought with Master soon. I'm getting excited."
Illya, wearing a white dress, poked her head out from the corner and looked curiously in the direction of the elevator, while Xiao Hei beside her chuckled.
"I'm also very interested, but it's a pity that big brother can't bring us along this time. Otherwise, I would also like to have a good time."
"I hope he's not someone too scary..."
Shion, wearing a hat, hid behind the two of them, holding the kitten and praying silently.
On the other side, Xia Shi, Yan Zhu and others, who were wearing maid uniforms, were busy placing decorations and tables, chairs and furniture. For the cursed children, this level of hard work was nothing.
Not only Xia Shi and Yan Zhu, but even the group of Fran Xiuxiu came to the banquet and were waiting for the performance backstage. This time, Fang Zheng could be said to have pulled out everyone in the Tiandao Palace... Of course, this also included Nymph, Hecate and Tilia.
Not only that, there are also ship girls like Iona and Vampire in the building to take care of security... well, just in case.
"This is it..."
Looking at the brightly lit, futuristic building in front of her, Black Cat took a breath of cold air. She took out the invitation letter and looked at it carefully, then took out her mobile phone to check the address. Then she walked into the hall with her two sisters. Soon, a voice sounded in Black Cat's ears.
"Ah, Black Cat, you're here."
“Asuna…”
Hearing the familiar voice, Black Cat immediately relaxed a lot. She turned her head and saw Asuna in a dress standing by the gate, smiling and waving at her.
"Good evening, Chat Noir."
"Good evening, Asuna, what are you doing here?"
"Mr. Fang Zheng asked me to be in charge of welcoming guests, so I'm waiting here... Is this your sister?"
As she spoke, Asuna curiously cast her eyes towards the two cute little creatures behind the black cat.
"Yes, these are my sisters, Hinata and Juki... and this is Asuna, the vice president of our Dark Moon Sword Guild."
Hearing what Kuroneko said, the two little girls standing behind her also came out and greeted Asuna respectfully.
"Hello, Sister Asuna, my name is Gosuke Hinata."
"I'm Goko Tamaki..."
"Hello, my name is Yuuki Asuna, you can just call me Asuna."
Looking at the two little cuties, Asuna greeted them with a smile, then looked at the black cat again.
"Walk to the end and take the elevator to the top floor, where the banquet venue is."
"Yeah... I understand."
After hearing Asuna's explanation, Kuroneko nodded. However, just when she was about to take her two sisters away, suddenly, a figure wearing a black cloak, holding an umbrella, and swaying from side to side like an old lady walked in from the gate.
“Haha…haha…this must be the banquet hall…”
"Sophie?"
Asuna and Black Cat were stunned when they saw the silver-haired girl wrapped up tightly in front of them. At this moment, Sophie took off her cloak and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Luckily it's dark... otherwise I wouldn't be able to go out... Hello, Asuna, Black Cat."
"Aren't you hot in this outfit?"
After greeting Sophie, Asuna looked at the heavy "armor" on the girl in front of her in surprise. You know, it's still summer here. Although it's night, it's still a bit hot outside... And the outfit Sophie is wearing is definitely autumn and winter clothing...
"It's okay, I don't feel hot."
Sophie shook her head, then stood up and looked at the empty hall in front of her.
"There's nothing here?"
"The banquet hall is on the top floor. You can go up with Chat Noir and the others... By the way, you can leave your coat at the counter once you get up there. You can just pick it up when you leave."
"OK."
Sophie was relieved at this moment, but just as she was about to say hello to the black cat, suddenly several voices came from the door.
"Ugh... not yet? I'm almost dying of exhaustion."
"Why are you so tired, Xiaojia? Hurry up, we are right here... Really, didn't you say you wanted Mr. Fangzheng to look at you with new eyes? If you dawdle any longer, your precious dress will be ruined!"
As the voices were talking, four girls walked in. The one leading the group was a girl with beautiful blonde hair wearing a pure white dress, and next to her was a girl with short hair wearing a black dress. Behind the two of them, a girl with red hair wearing a gothic dress similar to the black cat's showed a disdainful smile.
"You are so weak, Gabriel. Do you still want to be my rival?"
"Who is your rival?"
Gabriel complained helplessly, then walked into the hall, then she closed her eyes comfortably.
"Huh... Heaven is indeed heaven with air conditioning..."
"Hello, Gabriel."
Looking at Gabriel in front of her, Asuna was a little surprised, but she still greeted her. When Gabriel heard Asuna's voice, she looked over and waved to her.
"Hey, Asuna, I'm here. These are my friends... huh?"
Having said that, Gabriel's eyes suddenly focused and she looked in the direction of Sophie.
The moment Sophie saw Gabriel and others appear, she stood there with a pale face, like a wax figure, motionless.
“Haha…”
Looking at the two people staring at each other, Black Cat sighed helplessly. In fact, when she came in, she had already sensed the aura of Sophie and Gabriel. If it were in the past, Black Cat might have made a fuss, but now that she has become a magic apprentice, she would not be so surprised by the existence of angels and vampires.
But now...looking at the looks of these two people, they shouldn't fight here...right?
