Chapter 366: Banquet (Bonus)
The banquet took place in one of the buildings within the Frexia Academy. While it wasn’t the biggest building, it had the biggest venue.
There were a total of 198 students across all three years. It was a lot, but not enough to fill up the entire hall.
Of course, they hired a few butlers and maids in the academy because the main event was for the students.
The students were coming one by one. However, not all of them planned to attend the banquet.
While it was true that this was an event to build up their connection with each other, it didn’t change the fact that a lot of them were coming.
As one would expect, there was one person among the students who chose to come first and greet people as they entered. It was none other than Lovelia.
“Welcome everyone.” Lovelia smiled.
“Whoa. I have never thought that Lovelia would be greeting us here.”
“Right? The student council is different from the rest of us, so it’s surprising to see them here.”
“As expected of the one handling our public relationship, she looks gentle, cute, and harmless.”
“Indeed. With the white dress, she looked like a princess.”
“Still, I’ve heard a lot of rumors about her. Despite her harmless appearance, it’s said that when she is negotiating with other people, they end up having a ghastly face.”
“Reall—!!”
Before they could finish talking about her, there were a lot of whispers coming from the side as a few people had just arrived.
They were none other than the student council members.
“It’s the rest of the student council.”
Flora was wearing a light blue dress that gave a playful and cheerful atmosphere. Regynar matched the color of his tuxedo with his brown hair, which complemented his ever-serious face.
Leon was wearing pure white. He even changed the frame of his glasses so that it had the same color. It was as if he wanted to stick out on this dark night.
Still, there was one thing they didn’t expect from them. It was Noelle. Noelle had been the fiercest among them, yet they couldn’t find any of it today.
“I don’t really like wearing a dress…” Noelle said while looking at her purple dress that made her look cooler and more mature.
“It’s fine, isn’t it? It’s just for today. Besides, you might wear it a lot in the future.” Flora grinned.
“…” Noelle’s eyebrows twitched. She agreed with that statement, but it was still annoying.
The people were obviously staring at Noelle because of the contrast of what she had been showing this whole time.
“This…”
“I think I’m in love.”
“It feels like she has become a different person.”
“Just look at that embarrassed face.”
“Embarrassed? I would call it shy.”
“Well, Her Highness Flora is still the most beautiful, but Senior Noelle is definitely the one standing out the most.”
“I know, right?”
“Who cares? I’m just here to watch my prince, Senior Leon.”
“That’s right. Senior Regynar is more pleasant to see.”
The people were discussing them until they noticed one person was missing.
“Now that I think about it, where is the vice president? I have heard that the new president is Selena Ashton, right?”
“If we’re talking about her, isn’t she supposed to go with the student council?”
“I don’t think so. If she is going to go with someone, it will definitely be with that guy.”
“Who?”
“Nathan. That beast summoner.”
“Ah! That’s right. She is his woman, right? I’ve heard that she immediately takes over the vice president position because of him.”
“Damn. Where is Nathan? I want to get closer to him.” free𝑤ebnovel.com
“That’s right. My family has been thinking about roping him in. Our family might end up having the second generation of beast summoners if we can get his seed into our family.”
“Don’t be too thirsty. While it’s true that there’s a higher chance for a summoner to be born if both of their parents are summoners, it doesn’t change the fact that there is a high chance they don’t have Ena.”
“Besides, there’s a rumor of him being taken by the saintess.”
“Is the Holy Kingdom planning to do something as well?”
“Damn. This is getting complicated.”
More and more people came into the venue. Unfortunately, there were 30 people who were still on a mission, which meant they were unable to participate in the banquet.
There were around 20 people like Alavenya who disliked taking part in the banquet. And they had no obligation like Noelle to come to this banquet.
As a result, none of them were seen anywhere near the banquet.
Still, a lot of people were actually waiting outside instead of going inside and talking with others. They still wanted to see the people coming, especially all the famous people.
As one would expect from Selena, she knew when the banquet began. Hence, there was no need for them to arrive early.
Instead, they were among the last people to arrive.
Obviously, their entrance surprised many people.
Sera was wearing a long yellow gown with a flower decoration on her right waist. She was wearing a flower hairpin for her bangs and tied her back hair on the left side of her head. She gave the atmosphere of spring, which made them forget that winter had just begun.
Just her appearance alone brightened the atmosphere around the venue. Her well-endowed body just made people unable to look away.
On the other side, Selena was wearing a red gown with a black color on the edge. She was wearing long black gloves. The red dress made her black eyes shine red as though they had the color of blood, which matched the fact she came from the vampire family.
Her hair was braided from the sides and eventually met at the back, which ultimately flowed together with her long hair.
Both Sera’s bright theme and Selena’s elegant look took Nathan’s breath away. And it seemed he wasn’t the only one.
At the same time, it seemed that both of them had realized one more thing. They weren’t the only stars in this banquet. There were a lot of people, especially women, staring at Nathan as if he were a prey.
As a result, Selena grabbed his right arm while Sera took his left arm as both of them casually dragged him inside while pushing away any competitors.
