Chapter 82 Dance Invitation
A grand dinner party held by the Demon King.
Adeline had heard about this matter in the past. It was said that the Demon King was a person who was quite enthusiastic about banquets. It was said that the Demon King's city in the past was always ready for banquets.
In many small places, the rumor about such a banquet was that "the demons enjoyed the lives of various races in a carnival." So it was also called the "Mad Demon Dinner".
It was said that at such a banquet, the Demon King would bring powerful captives from various races, or dance, or duel, or struggle, or flatter... for the enjoyment of the demons.
Today's banquets should be different from those banquets, after all, Godora is here.
"Then everyone, please raise your glasses~"
Mohe was excited: "To welcome Miss Lisiduowei's new life, to celebrate the success of the wine business, and to welcome Miss Lastina and Miss Adeline! Let's drink this cup together! Enjoy the gathering at this moment!"
The cute and petite girl took the lead in drinking the glass of wine in her hand.
Hearing that this was their own brewed wine, Adeline was going to take out something for testing. But it seemed that there was no such opportunity. Without much hesitation, she drank the wine.
Moher snapped his fingers.
The sound of music naturally rang in the room: "Alchemy is really convenient~ Speaking of which, Miss Adeline has the same name as the president of the Contemporary Alchemist Association. He is really a great person. I didn't think of applying alchemy to such a place before... I was still considering whether to hire an orchestra to play."
In her treasure house, there is also a high-level alchemical prop called "Destruction Scale". It is not a new thing to integrate music into alchemical props, but applying it to civil affairs is another idea.
Although this is very simple.
"You are right, I also think she is really a great person."
This is really bragging...Lastinina couldn't help but complain in her heart.
But her eyes were obviously on Doro. Thinking carefully, there was only one man in the mansion, Mr. Doro. Miss Lisiduowei and Miss Rose were the housekeeper and maid. Although they were good-looking,
dancing was a good opportunity to show their charm in such occasions.
She should invite Mr. Doro to dance.
In this way, other girls could only dance with each other, and she would be the focus of the crowd. Although it was reasonable for Miss Moher to find someone to dance with first to warm up the crowd, it seemed that she did not have such an intention.
As for Miss Adeline, she was not familiar with these people, and she was probably waiting for her action.
Besides, who here was qualified to dance with Miss Adeline?
As for her? Although she was also of noble status, she had received the kindness of Mr. Doro after all. He was a brave and powerful man, and there was a transaction between them. Of course, the objects of the transaction were equal. So it was natural for her to invite Mr. Doro to dance. Even if she was asked, it could be said that it was to repay Mr. Doro's kindness.
Thinking of this, she no longer hesitated and walked straight towards Doro.
Everyone's eyes were drawn to her behavior.
They couldn't help but fall on her.
Lastina was a little nervous, but she was the daughter of a businessman after all, and she was well versed in the ways of business. She knew that many things in the world had to be thick-skinned to be won.
Face was the last thing a businessman needed.
She adjusted her expression and came to Duo Luo, putting on a smile that she thought was the sweetest in her life. Although she thought she would not be rejected, if she was rejected, she didn't know if her girlish heart could bear it.
"Mr. Duo Luo, in order to repay your enthusiastic help, can you dance with me?"
Duo Luo's eyes fell on the girl in front of him.
At this moment, the girl bowed with a ladylike temperament and extended her hand to him. She was wearing a fitted light pink dress, which showed the girl's youthfulness to the fullest.
Dancing?
Speaking of which, the last time he danced seemed to be at the celebration banquet after defeating the Demon King. That was probably the most glorious time in Duo Luo's life.
That day, there were many people who invited him to dance, and he didn't refuse any of them.
He felt that he had an obligation to dance with everyone.
Shameful memories came to his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, so that his cheeks were a little hot. He felt that his past thoughts were simply ridiculous... However.
If it happened again, he would probably have the opportunity to do so.
Thinking of this, he stood up and took Lastina's hand: "It's my honor, ma'am."
Doro's consent was a matter of course... Lastina originally thought so. After all, she was the daughter of the president of the Gold Seeking Chamber of Commerce. Even from this perspective alone, there should be no man who would refuse her dance invitation, not to mention that she was pretty.
If Doro was a normal man, he would not have the idea of rejecting himself.
But...
When Doro held her hand, her heart still couldn't help but beat wildly.
What's wrong with me?
Mr. Doro looks almost the same age as her father - she only extended the invitation out of gratitude and courtesy... Why is she so flustered?
Is it because this gentleman is so mature and steady that she feels that she might be rejected?
She didn't have much room to think, because Doro had already begun to guide her to dance.
"Are you not very good at dancing?"
"Ah... no, I'm just a little... nervous."
Doro put his arm around the girl's waist: "Nervous? Does dancing with me make you nervous? Or are you not used to this kind of thing?"
"No... that... please don't mind~"
Moher looked at what was happening in front of him with a smile, and Doro and Lastina had already started dancing.
She came to Adeline with a glass of wine in her hand: "I thought you would ask Doro to dance first~"
"I think he will refuse me." Adeline held the glass and clinked it with Moher. "Lastinina doesn't know his identity and didn't recognize him, so he can dance with her as Doro. This may make him feel a little relieved."
"Hey~ You haven't seen him for so many years, but you speak as if you know him very well."
There seemed to be some deep meaning in Moher's words, but Adeline could only feel the taste of yin and yang. So Adeline didn't want to answer her words.
"Come to think of it, Miss Lastina's arrival seems to be related to the crystal ball I placed in the Demon King's Castle. I don't know how the crystal ball fell into the hands of the Gold Seeking Chamber of Commerce... Do you think her current behavior comes from her heart, or is it the interference of certain things?"
Adeline couldn't help but look at Lastina again after hearing her words: "What do you mean?"
"Although Doro seems to have done something similar to a hero saving a beauty, this man doesn't seem to be handsome enough to make people like him at once? If it is the A. Godola in the past, let's not talk about it... Can the current decadent uncle Mr. Doro easily capture the heart of the young lady of the Gold Seeking Chamber of Commerce? Aren't you looking down on the young lady's vision too much?"
"Love can make people blind, it's hard to explain."
Moh drank the red wine in his glass: "If you insist on thinking so, then treat it as such. Anyway, it doesn't matter to me. Do you want to dance? There is not much difference in height between us, so dancing should be no problem."
"It would be better if there is a height difference, right? One dances male steps, and the other dances female steps. They are almost the same, so some moves are difficult to do."
"It seems that the former Miss Douding has indeed matured a lot. I thought alchemists were not very interested in such things."
"Aren't you also an alchemist?"
"That's right."
Moher clapped his hands, and Lisiduowei came over immediately: "Lord Moher, please give me your orders."
"Miss Adeline doesn't want to dance with me. She dislikes that I am almost the same height as her. You come and dance with Miss Ade, dance on the male side."
Lisiduowei nodded, and she stretched out her hand to Adeline: "Miss Adeline, can you please dance with me?"
Adeline stared at the hand, but her eyes fell on Moher again.
"Miss Adeline, I think you should have something to say about the topic of betrayal."
The vampire queen who betrayed the devil and the team members who betrayed the hero.
Indeed, if it is about communicating betrayal and communicating love... they do have something to say.
"Since ancient times, music and dance have been the most primitive ways for humans to express their emotions. Before humans understood language, they showed their inner world by showing their body and voice."
Moher seemed to remember something: "Using dance to communicate the inner world is a good choice."
Adeline held Lisiduowei's hand: "Then, respect is better than obedience, Miss Lisiduowei, please take care of me."
The taller Lisiduowei and the relatively petite Adeline started dancing in the hall at this moment.
Doro and Lastina, Lisiduowei and Adeline.
Moher's eyes could not help but stay on Rose.
"Would you like to dance with me?"
"...Forget it, you can't, right?"
Rose didn't expect Moher to see through her inability to dance at a glance: "As you said, but if we treat dance as swordplay, maybe it won't be that difficult."
"That thing has a special name called sword dance." Moher picked up a piece of grilled meat from the plate, "Well~ Just enjoy the food and the beautiful scenery. There is nothing more pleasant than this."
