A grunt escaped Noah's mouth, then his eyes slowly opened. Sitting up groggily, Noah scanned his surroundings.
A fluffy and comfy object lay below him, a massive room adorned with golden coloured tapestries, silky white curtains and a red carpet that stretched out of the closed bright golden door, entered his eyes.
The ceiling was garnished with blue radiance-glowing chandeliers. It looked breathtaking in Noahs opinion.
There sat a fine brown chair beside where he currently sat, a small table with a mirror right in front of it.
It took Noah a few more seconds to realize that he was in a room. A grand one at that.
Hastily getting down the incredibly comfy bed, Noah also realized that he was in a new attire.
He was currently wearing pair a white neatly ironed trousers, a white shirt with collar reaching the base of his neck, a black waist coat with golden embroideries in a line pattern. Then a full-body length black jacket which flickered with golden inscriptions.
Noah immediately went towards the mirror to behold his beauty. "My god!," Noah muttered when his eyes fell on how he looked.
Noah couldn't help but thank the gods for his beautiful face, because right now he resembled a stunning young master.
Immediately those thoughts ended, the golden door flew open, a woman entering the room.
Noah turned sharply to see who entered, then his eyes fell on the lady.
She looked to be in her early thirties, long brown hair with dark green eyes, was about 5'7 in height and was currently in a gown.
Overall she looked beautiful, coupled with the whiffs of tier 3 aura she released, Noah knew to respect himself with her.
"Good day sir Noah. I see you are already admiring your attire. I am Abigail, a maid of the royal palace, and I will be your escort for the night," She bowed.
Noah simply stood there, his mind wondering what was going on, until it dawned on him. "It is a pleasure to meet you Abigail," Noah bowed also.
The lady straightened her position at that point, going on to inspect Noah's features, "You look stunning sir," she complimented with soft smile.
Noah smiled at her words though he didn't really take it to heart.
"Now quickly sir the night has begun the others await your arrival," She stretched her left hand outwards for Noah to grab them which he did.
During that moment, Noah decided that since she was his escort it was only normal that he Inspected her attire and probably complement her.
Abigail wore a long black off-shoulder gown which displayed her alluring bronze skin and thin neck.
Her hair was packed in a long ponytail, a few hairpins and hair bands holding it together. In her right hand was a silver purse adorned with many gems that reflected the rays of light in the room.
On her feet was a pair of black heels which elevated her height up to what it was, meaning she was originally around 5'5.
Noah didn't know why to say after the inspection. In his opinion she was a total hottie who he would have been eager to take on a date, but she was just a maid.
The two walked out the room into a long corridor brightly lit with multiple orange light, and decorated with a red rug.
They walked in silence for around five minutes still in each others arms, until they got to a flight of stairs, which they walked down, and another door that stood In front of them.
A light knock by Abigail caused it to open which revealed another long corridor but at its end Noah could see an open space.
Ignoring the two guard's at the door, the two walked in silence for another minute of so, Noah not expecting the corridor to be that long.
Just a few meters to the exit of the corridor, Abigail's voice rang out, but it wasn't her mouth but mental voice.
"I'll Introduce all the dignitaries you'll meet sir. Just greet them in the most polite way you can," she said not even looking at him.
Noah nodded at her words, his face almost going stern, but he stopped when her voice sounded again. "And keep a smile on. We don't want to offend them," she smiled at him this time around.
Noah nodded again this time keeping a light smile on his face.
They exited the long corridor at point.
A large room eventually appeared in his sight. The room so large that he could fit a small mansion inside of it. The room was also lit up with multiple Mana chandeliers.
Inside the ballroom were many people both male and female all dressed in exquisite looking attires, while few maids served them drinks.
Glancing at the ceiling of the room, Noah found that directly parallel to the balcony they stood, a room stood. Glass covered its opening to shield whoever was Inside from the outside.
"This will be the ballroom, right before the feast begins," Abigail said while they walked down the stairs.
Noah nodded and focused on the room again. When they got to a particular height people started to notice their descent, and surprisingly they began to clap.
Noah was hit by a wave of surprise, but played along, some even shouted his name, but he kept a smile on.
Eventually it died down, though most still had eyes on him, it seemed they had gotten distracted by something or rather someone else.
On getting to the ground Noah saw their distractor. and It was of course Isabella.
Before she could come any closer he Inspected her attire in its entirety.
Isabella was draped in a long silver satin dress that tried its best to hide her incredible curves but failed miserably. On her neck were multiple silver necklaces with one particular necklace having a red gem in it.
Her silky hair flowed freely down her delicate neck, moving softly on her shoulders. On her feet were also silver heels which shimmered in the light of the ballroom. In all she was breathtaking.
Noah knew he wouldn't be exaggerating if he said she was the light of the show.
Many men would agree with him on that, not even Moses or James seemed to be able not be able keep their eyes off her, since they would steal glances once in a while.
Even her escort a young looking man with short black hair seemed to agree with him. As Noah could see on his face a proud expression of being able to escort the angelic beauty.
Noah was almost sure the young man cried a few times when they announced to him that he would escort Isabella.
Immediately scanning the area, Noah could see that many men had placed themselves strategically around her in order to steal as many glances as they could.
"You look great," Isabella was the first to talk among the three with James and Moses being the other two.
"Thank you. I'm sure I don't need to tell you that you look as beautiful as ever," Noah smiled, while she chuckled a little.
Inspecting the reaction of her escort, Noah found that he frowned a bit. He must had tried his best to make her laugh like Noah did, but probably didn't achieve it.
"You both look good too," Noah said gesturing at James and Moses who he didn't bother to inspect much, only the beautiful ladies in their arms.
'Are all the royal maids beautiful?,' Noah couldn't help but ask himself at some point.
He couldn't fathom how such women were maids, though that of royals, they probably ate more than most citizens did.
"Why do you think they are doing this," James eventually said.
"Probably to advertise us to the other noble's," Moses immediately answered, he seemed to know a lot when he came to politics.
"But at least they could have Informed us. Being put to sleep and finding yourself in an unknown place isn't nice," Noah spoke, but said the other half of the sentence in his head.
"It was probably a surprise of some sorts," Isabella answered with a light nod. "After this, would probably be the prize giving ceremony or something" She added with a light shrug.
"Let's just have as much fun as we can. Potential messy events are about to occur we should prepare our minds," Moses said and walked away with his escort, leaving the rest confused.
"Goodbye for now," Isabella also said and walked away leaving the two men in a weird silence.
Being left with only themselves, Noah was about to say something to James when Abigail's voice rang out in his head.
"A nobleman is on his way, and he's very important," She announced.
Noah immediately turned his head to face her then traced the direction of her gaze. His eyes immediately fell on a young looking man who had a few escorts behind him, walking towards their position.
