Chapter 120

unedited

Previously, I was hiding, so I didn’t have time to enjoy the banquet. But after relaxing and listening to a song from a distance like this, how should I say it?

It was a very romantic atmosphere.

It’s a dark night as the sun goes down, but the lights of the banquet hall are so bright and beautiful that you can’t even see the stars in the sky.

It was the first time I had seen such a sight since I was reincarnated here.

The other children, like me, buried their heads in the cracks of the trees and looked at the banquet hall.

After such a long time, I muttered with a sigh.

“…I want to dance too.”

Suddenly, Jake, who was standing right next to me, reached out to me.

“Huh?”

What was with the hand suddenly?

I didn’t understand, so I looked at Jake blankly.

Then Jake said in a slightly embarrassed voice.

“Then you can dance with me, Mir.”

“……great!”

It was a sudden offer, but I was pleased.

Immediately, I took Jake’s outstretched hand and turned around lightly.

“Jake, hold my hand. Don’t let go!”

“Don’t worry. I will never let go.”

I was nervous because I was afraid that Jake’s hand would slip because of my movements.

Then Jake answered in a fairly trustworthy voice.

“Haha.”

It was a little funny, so I made a low laugh and stepped on the steps.

I’ve learned from watching my mom and dad dance before.

As I vaguely recalled those memories, I danced.

“……By the way, Jake.”

Then, suddenly, a strange thing occurred to me.

Did Jake know how to dance?

“Did you ever learn to dance?”

“Yes.”

Immediately, Jake agreed. I was surprised.

“What? Really?”

No, not just magic, Jake seemed to be able to do many things without my knowledge.

Am I the only one living lazily?

Whew, I felt like I had to work harder.

Then, Jake spoke quietly.

“Afterwards, when I had my debutante, I wanted to dance with Mir for the first time.”

“……”

“That’s why, not long ago, I called the teacher and practiced dancing.”

As Jake said, he seemed to have practiced quite a bit, and his dancing skills were top-notch.

I laughed and danced happily.

Although it was not a banquet hall, I heard the music and felt like I was enjoying the banquet.

Then someone next to me grumbled.

It was Cedric.

“Is it fun? Only you guys dance.”

“That’s right, Miss Emir. Please dance with me.”

Alice also added a word.

Before I could say anything, Jake answered. still holding my hand

“Then why don’t you two dance together?”

“……Ugh!”

“That’s a little bit…”

But somehow, Cedric and Alice’s reaction were gloomy.

It was a look that didn’t like it at all.

‘Why? The two of them rode the carriage every day together right, did they fight?’

As I tilted my head with a puzzled expression, Cedric and Alice held hands together with still shaky expressions on their faces, whether they were thinking of something.

Then they seemed to dance clumsily…

“Uwaak! Where are you stepping on? It hurts!”

“I made a mistake because I couldn’t see it. More than that, Sir Cedric, don’t step on the hem of my clothes!”

Somehow, Cedric and Alice creaked like blocks that didn’t fit.

They quarreled with each other, saying whether they stepped on the other’s feet or clothes.

“Ha, that’s enough. Rather, dance with me now, Emir, you had enough with Jake right?”

“What are you talking about, Sir Cedric? Miss Emir will dance with me, right?”

“I was first!”

In addition, the fight was about to start over dancing with me again.

I quickly stepped forward to mediate between the two.

“I will dance with the person who wins in rock paper scissors first.”

So Cedric and Alice played rock paper scissors.

It was Alice who won.

Somehow, it seems that Cedric loses every time he plays, maybe it’s because of his mood.

Thinking like that, I held Alice’s hand.

Alice smiled happily and asked me.

“By the way, Miss Emir, isn’t it too dark? If I do something wrong, I think I will trip and fall. So I’ll turn on some lights.”

Saying so, Alice pulled something from the hem of her sleeve.

It looked like some kind of powder, but when sprinkled in the air, the powder suddenly floated in the air, emitting a soft light.

I was amazed.

“Wow, it looks just like a firefly!”

“…This is the item that Sir Abish gave me. It is said to be fairy powder, but when you sprinkle it on, the surrounding area becomes shiny for about 5 minutes!”

“What, if there was something like this, why didn’t you take it out sooner? Stepping on my feet so hard.”

Hearing Cedric’s grumbling, Alice and I began to dance slowly. Although it was a clumsy move, the atmosphere became more fun thanks to the fairy powder shining around.

Fairy powder moved freely as if it were alive and lit us up.

Five minutes later, the light melted away and our dance was over.

As soon as it was over, as if waiting, Cedric grabbed my hand and took it from Alice.

“Now, it’s my turn, right?”

“…Sir Cedric is impatient.”

Alice shook her head and said.

But with it or not, Cedric snorted. Then, he told me off for nothing.

“But Emir, why are your hands so warm?”
