Chapter 423 Please Dance with Me
Chapter 423 Please Dance with Me
The night is dark.
The moonlight is looming.
There seemed to be a strong wind blowing in the empty sky, causing the trees in the white holy city to rustle.
Inside the venue, the brass chandeliers illuminated the entire hall so brightly that even the tiles shimmered.
Xu Xi glanced at the nobles who were toasting each other.
He shook his head and chose a secluded corner to sit down alone.
He doesn't like noise.
I just want to wait for the hero to return, curious about what he wants to do.
"I feel like... my back is starting to sweat."
"Is it because it's too hot?"
Xu Xi was thinking, quietly watching those gorgeously dressed people talking loudly in the banquet hall, with soothing and cheerful music flowing in his ears.
Someone started dancing.
Young men and women who fell in love with each other, with excited love flashing in their eyes, danced happily in the hall just after meeting each other once.
"Excuse me, can I..."
"What am I doing here?"
“How strange…”
There was a noble lady in gorgeous clothes who wanted to invite Xu Xi, but she only took two or three steps closer before turning away in a daze.
Vaguely.
Xu Xi felt a sharp pain in his back again.
He seemed to have become an invisible man. Although he was sitting in the meeting room, no one came to disturb him, especially those young and beautiful women.
"Master Wizard, I'm back."
About six or seven minutes later.
The hero finally returns.
Her figure appeared silently, ignoring the door, and appeared next to Xu Xi.
"Are you done yet, Sylvia?"
"Yes, Master Wizard."
The girl had her hands behind her back, her upper body slightly leaning forward, and was standing facing the seated Xu Xi, with a particularly bright smile on her face.
Xu Xi was very curious.
What on earth did our hero go off to do?
But the brave man did not answer immediately.
Instead, he raised his right index finger and placed it between his lips, tilting his head slightly:
"This is a secret, Master Wizard."
"secret?"
"Well, I'll reveal the answer later. Before that—"
Warm like the sun.
As beautiful as a jewel.
The girl with long golden hair took a deep breath and placed her fingers lightly on her chest, as if to cheer herself up.
finally.
She mustered up her courage.
In the surprised eyes of Xu Xi, he made a bold invitation: "Master Wizard, would you please dance with me?"
The flushed cheeks reveal innocent shyness.
At the same time, it also contains a bit of expectation.
This was Sylvia that Xu Xi had never seen before. Her cheeks were as rosy as red apples in autumn.
Beautiful and stunning.
Xu Xi was stunned for a moment, then smiled with tenderness in his eyes: "Of course, Sylvia."
The lights are on and the banquet is in full swing.
Under the illumination of the huge chandelier, Xu Xi stretched out his hand, ready to respond to the hero's invitation.
"Wait, Master Wizard!"
"Please let me be more formal!"
Sylvia waved her hands hurriedly and took another deep breath.
The heart is beating very fast.
Breathing is also a little rapid.
Sylvia tried to calm down, pinched the hem of her skirt with both hands, leaned forward to lift her skirt, turned her back to the bright candlelight in the hall, and faced Xu Xi:
"Dear wizard, may I ask you to dance with me?"
After saying.
The green eyes blinked.
Smart and looking forward to it.
"Of course, beautiful Miss Sylvia," responding to the girl's courtesy, Xu Xi stretched out his hand and gently held those soft fingers.
He seemed to understand a little.
Why did our hero choose this banquet specifically? Behind his brave and fearless character, there is also the delicate nature of a girl.
The two did not go to the center of the crowded hall.
This unique duet dance took place in a deserted corner of the venue. The two held each other's fingers and took awkward steps, performing a dance that was not beautiful.
Xu Xi is not good at dancing.
There was no need for training before.
Therefore, his dancing posture was particularly stiff.
"Sylvia, you should have told me earlier. That way, I would have had some time to practice."
"It's alright, Master Wizard."
"Actually...my level is also average."
Could it be that Serviya, who grew up in an aristocratic family and received elite education, really doesn't understand ceremonial dance?
Xu Xi expressed doubts about this.
But soon, Sylvia proved the truth of this statement with her actual performance.
"Wait, wait, Master Wizard!"
"I'm so sorry, I stepped on you by accident..."
“Ahhh! I’m going to fall!”
Sylvia's balance was off.
As he was dancing, his body fell backwards involuntarily. Fortunately, Xu Xi was paying attention and pulled the clumsy hero back into his arms in time.
"Fortunately, the wizard is here..."
Sylvia looked worried.
He seemed to be regretting his own carelessness.
"Sylvia, take your time. Don't be too anxious."
Xu Xi's comfort was very effective. The girl regained her composure and her steps gradually caught up with the rhythm of the music, maintaining a tacit frequency with Xu Xi.
Dance.
Turn around.
slide.
The body movements were not perfect, and accidental collisions would occur from time to time. There were also several times when the brave man fell into Xu Xi's arms.
Stumbling and falling.
It was not until the third time the music cycled that the duet was barely completed.
"I didn't expect dancing to be so tiring."
Stop dancing.
Beads of sweat were already appearing on Xu Xi's forehead.
But I can still hold on.
In comparison, Sylvia, who had traveled through the Demon King's Castle overnight, appeared to be even weaker than Xu Xi.
He could only lean on Xu Xi's shoulder to barely keep standing.
"Sylvia, is this enough?"
Xu Xi brought a towel.
Wipe the sweat off yourself and Sylvia.
"…Besides dancing, there is something else we need to do."
"Master Wizard, do you remember the secret I told you before?"
"I think it's time to let the wizard know," the brave man stood up and pulled Xu Xi to a small lookout tower on the outskirts.
There are too many people in the banquet hall.
The atmosphere was too lively.
The girl didn't want to reveal the mysterious puzzle to Xu Xi in such an environment.
Cross the steps.
Walk through the corridor.
Arrived at a small platform with few people.
There is no one else here, only a small space enclosed by stone railings, from which one can overlook the stars above and the lights of thousands of homes in the distance.
A cool breeze swirled in the air.
It's very refreshing.
It relieved Xu Xi's fatigue.
He stared, staring at the moonlight like water, climbing up the girl's long golden hair, highlighting the shyness of her hesitation to speak and the boldness of her open lips.
"Master Wizard."
"Would you please accept this?"
Under the hazy night.
Sylvia officially revealed the answer.
It was a small, round, bright emerald placed in a hollow dial and was well preserved.
Not special.
Not mysterious either.
The girl whispered the origin of the emerald. It was just a "treasure" found in the wild by a little girl who had fantasies of being a hero in her childhood.
She loved it very much and treasured it throughout her childhood.
Now.
The girl wanted to give it to Xu Xi.
"Servia, is this... really okay?" Xu Xi hesitated.
"Well," Sylvia smiled, "I already have a more precious treasure, Master Wizard."
Childhood dream.
Lonely self.
A fragile dream.
All invisible thoughts are condensed inside the tiny gem.
Taken out by the brave Sylvia.
He handed it to Xu Xi’s left ring finger.
"Om!", the ring emerged by itself and merged with the tiny emerald, becoming one and the same, an eternal vow.
"Oh, yes, there is one more thing."
"Master Wizard, look~~~"
It seemed as if he suddenly remembered something.
Sylvia stretched out her left hand, her fingers glowing with light, and she was also wearing a ring, which was a space ring given to her by Xu Xi in the wizarding world.
Now, the hero makes fine adjustments to the position of the ring.
From the index finger of the left hand, it changed to the ring finger of the left hand.
Same as Xu system.
"Sure enough, the ring given by the wizard is most suitable in this position."
(The dancing scene seemed to be mistaken for being invisible and was reviewed for a long time)
