Chapter 149 Dance Practice

Daisy watched with interest while Vespara and Aizel danced, hoping to learn a little or two from their graceful movements.

However, it soon became clear that Vespara was the only one who genuinely mastered the art of dance.

Aizel, on the other hand, looked stiff and awkward, like a puppet being forced to move in a certain way to keep up with Vespara's fluid motions.

Daisy couldn't help but laugh watching him dance, making odd and weird facial expressions while struggling to keep up with Vespara's elegant steps.

"Okay, that's enough. Daisy, it's your turn. Go and dance as I did with Aizel."

Daisy nodded and stepped towards Aizel, slowly raising her hand and resting it on his shoulder.

Aizel, catching on quickly, swiftly placed his hand on her waist. They locked gazes for a brief moment.

With a sharp clap of her hands, Vespara signaled for them to begin dancing.

They began to move slowly, each step exactly in time with the previous one. Aizel appeared to be smoother and more graceful in his motions this time, using his imagination to improve his dance skills.

Daisy, too, seemed to be improving, moving with greater ease and confidence as they practiced together for what felt like hours.

"Look at you both already dancing like a true couple."

Aizel rolled his eyes at her comment and continued to practice with her.

Aizel and Daisy took turns leading each other in dancing, perfecting their movements, and gaining confidence each time. They practiced tirelessly, pushing one another to be better, until they were both happy with their results.

After an hour, they sat down at a table, panting and sweating from their long hours of practice.

"Well, that should be enough for tomorrow; good job both of you," Vespara said.

"If there is an option to not dance, I will gladly not do it tomorrow," Aizel commented, dropping his head on the table.

"Oh, there will be many more things other than dance, in the past few days, many things have happened.

"It is going to be fun seeing everyone go mad at each other, hehe.

"Now I should go back to sleep, or will you be a gentleman and invite me over to your bed?" Vespara said licking her lips.

"Go home, hag. I am going to sleep. I am tired." He stood up and went towards his room.

"Well, then I should also head back. See you tomorrow, Daisy."

After Vespara left, Daisy found herself alone in the hall, a contented smile on her flushed face. She rose slowly and went to her room ready to rest up for the upcoming royal gala.

The Next Morning...

The streets of Felgura City were quieter than normal on the day of the royal gala, with fewer people wandering about than on a typical day.

The city seemed to glitter with excitement, as everyone knew it was a special day.

No one dared to cause any trouble, for they knew that the most powerful people in the Felgura Kingdom would be in attendance at the gala and the consequences of misbehaving could be severe.

Many noble families lived in Felgura City, while others resided in towns and cities elsewhere, ruling their territories from afar.

But tonight, all eyes were on Felgura Castle, where the grandest of gatherings was about to take place.

The carriage traveled over the dirt route, the repetitive thumping of the horses' feet ringing into the air as they left a dust trail behind them.

Leah sat by the window, gazing out at the sky with a thoughtful expression on her face.

"Today, finally I will be able to see you again, Aizel," she muttered under her breath.

"Don't do something stupid there; remember he is a student of the War Goddess."

"I know Grandfather. Don't worry about it."

"Why is Uncle not attending the Gala today?"

"He will be looking over land and business. After the incident in Tidalehim, we can't take this lightly anymore.

"There is definitely some high-level mage or someone from another kingdom helping this rioting group," her grandfather replied as he slowly stroked his long beard.

"And what are we going to do about Aizel? How are we going to make him make ours?"

"There is nothing we can do about it. I have heard the news he is literally strong and went toe to toe with Soren in close combat. They are definitely going to put him on the team for Interkingdom Tournament.

"You already know how seriously our king takes that event. The princess will be the one leading the team.

"We should forget about him as long as that bitch is alive."

"Then are we going to lose him forever?"

Leah's grandfather looked her in the eyes, a deep sigh escaping from his lips.

"This young one never understands a thing," he thought.

"Leave that for now. We will talk about this another time. We already have a major problem currently, focus on that."

The carriage carrying Leah, Yelena, and her grandfather arrived in Felgura City and proceeded immediately to the magnificent Felgura Castle.

The sound of horse hooves filled the city streets as the carriages of the remaining noble families arrived one by one, all heading for the great Felgura Castle. The air was thick with expectation and excitement as everyone prepared to attend the Royal Gala.

Meanwhile, Aizel was deep asleep when he was startled awake by a peculiar, soft sensation.

His eyes were drawn to his hand, which was pressed against Vespara's breast.

She was resting on the bed next to him, a smirk playing on her lips.

"Seems like you're feeling a little frisky in the morning, pretty boy," she teased.

"You! What are you doing in my room, stop doing this thing, hag... Nothing is going to work."

"Hehe, I thought I should wake you up today. Seeing such a beautiful lady wake you up in the morning is every man's dream, you know.

"Have you ever made love with a woman before?"

Aizel felt the weight of Vespara's question settles heavily on him. Was she making fun of him? He couldn't be sure.

"No"

"Don't worry, my pretty boy, I will teach you how to do it."

"No need; now get out of my room. I will be there in 5 minutes."
