Chapter 172
Claudia wore a ladylike, dignified smile, but her eyes were cold as she looked at the man.
Just as Claudia was about to refuse...
A voice rang out from the edge of the banquet.
"Excuse me, sir, she already has a dance partner."
"!"
Upon hearing the sound, Claudia opened her eyes wide and looked in the direction of the sound.
A white braid hung down her back, and her azure eyes smiled as she looked at Claudia.
He wore a light brown shirt under a black suit, with a gold tie at the pale white collar and long gold stripes along the hem. The black trousers perfectly accentuated his straight and long legs.
His handsome appearance immediately attracted the attention of many wealthy young ladies and noblewomen present.
Luo Mio strode up to Claudia, extended her hand, and smiled softly at her.
"Would you like to dance with me, my beautiful wife?"
Claudia looked at Luo Mio's outstretched hand and gave her a perfect smile.
"Of course, my husband."
At the ball, Luo Mio and Claudia's elegant dance attracted the admiring gazes of those around them, and the musicians playing the piece also slowly changed the rhythm of the music because of their addition.
"When..."
Between the two, Claudia whispered.
Upon hearing her voice, Luo Mio said softly, "I woke up around noon today, and then I heard from the teacher that you had come to Lezetania, so I thought I would give you a surprise."
Claudia muttered a disgruntled complaint.
"Why didn't you tell me when you woke up? You could have at least sent a message."
Luo Mio chuckled softly, "If I told you, would it still be a surprise?"
"Too."
Claudia also smiled happily.
——
After the ball, Luo Mio took Claudia's soft hand and walked towards the direction where Sora, Bella, and Amagiri Haruka were.
"Elder brother."
Upon seeing Luo Mio approach, Kong ran up to him and hugged him.
Luo Mio gently patted her head, then turned to look at Bella.
"Bella."
"Lord Luo Mio." Bella bowed slightly to Luo Mio and greeted her happily.
"It's been a long time, Mio-kun," Amagiri Haruka said with a smile. "Although it's only been half a month."
"Yes, Miss Haruka."
"Just call me Yao."
"Then... Sister Yao."
Amagiri Haruka nodded slightly.
"By the way, where are Yurith?"
"As for them, Flora just asked them to get some wine. After all, Flora is still an intern and a minor, so she can't go into the wine cellar."
"Is that so?"
After hearing Amagiri Haruka's explanation, Luo Mio nodded in agreement.
"Ah." Claudia looked at the banquet and suddenly saw Amagiri Ayato and his group from the window.
Where are they?
"Hmm?" Kong looked over and asked in confusion.
"What's wrong with Kirrin? Her face is so red."
Luo Mio smiled gently.
"Let's go over there."
Sora, Claudia, Amagiri Haruka walked in front, while Luo Mio and Bella followed behind them.
At that moment, Bella whispered in Luo Mio's ear, "Lord Luo Mio, 'World Serpent' has received information that someone has hired assassins to attack Miss Tia."
Upon hearing Bella's words, Luo Mio also realized what was going on and whispered, "So, that's why you came to Lezetania with Kong?"
Bella nodded slightly.
"Okay, I understand."
Luo Mio nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
And just then...
"Boom--!"
A tremendous noise was heard, followed by a beastly roar.
"Roar!"
Luo Mio narrowed her eyes slightly.
Trouble is brewing.
Chapter 94: Want to have a go with my dragon?
"It's so lively inside."
Amazing gasps of surprise rippled through the banquet.
Outside the window, Amagiri Ayato looked into the banquet hall, but due to the limited field of vision, he could only see a corner of the hall.
"Sorry, I didn't expect there to be so much wine."
"It's alright, Yurith Yulis," Kato Kirin said politely, shaking her head.
"Yes, Yurith," Amagiri Ayato said with a smile.
Sasamiya Saya suddenly ran over and hugged Amagiri Ayato's arm.
"Wait! Saya!"
"I'm tired." Sasamiya Saya hugged Amagiri Ayato and said, "I want Ayato to hug me."
"A child!"
Seeing Sasamiya Saya's actions, Yurith also commented.
Is Lisfeit?
Sasamiya Saya looked at Yurith and said.
"Huh?"
"I want Ayato to hug me."
"What...!" Upon hearing Sasamiya Saya's words, Yurith's face instantly flushed red.
"Haha, this scene is really enviable."
Behind them, behind Amagiri Ayato and the others, a male voice rang out.
Amagiri Ayato and the others looked over.
A middle-aged gentleman with a neatly trimmed beard and a gentlemanly smile was seen looking at the crowd.
——
"Roar!"
The terrifying blast wave, the sound of shattering glass, and the sound of cutlery being blown away and falling to the ground echoed throughout the banquet.
A huge creature appeared in front of Amagiri Ayato and the others.
It looks like a lion, but upon closer inspection, there are significant differences.
It is about five meters long, has bat wings on its back, and a snake tail.
Its appearance is very similar to the mythical monster, the Chimera.
The sonic boom from the Chimera's roar caused many people at the banquet to be scratched by glass.
"Who are you!"
Upon witnessing this scene, Yurith angrily questioned the gentleman.
"Heh, just a nobody..."
"Gustav Malraux, the Beast Magician '."
A voice rang out from the banquet.
Upon hearing such a familiar voice, Amagiri Ayato and the others also looked towards the direction of the banquet.
Luo Mio, dressed in a black suit, walked out and looked at the middle-aged gentleman, saying, "Am I right?"
Beside Luo Mio were four women: Sora, Bella, Claudia, Amagiri Haruka.
"Luo Mio!"
Amagiri Ayato was also delighted to see Luo Mio.
Luo Mio smiled gently at them, then looked at Gustav Malraux.
When Gustav Malraux saw Luo Mio, he was also taken aback, and then smiled.
"I never expected to be recognized by the renowned 'Finality' Luo Mio. It's truly an honor for me."
Luo Mio also laughed and said, "Not at all. To be remembered by Mr. Gustav, one of the seventy-seven prisoners in the largest terrorist attack in history, 'Emerald Twilight,' is something that makes me feel extremely apprehensive."
"!"
Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, Amagiri Ayato, Yurith, and the others were instantly startled, and then looked at Gustav with wary eyes.
And so, Gustav faced off against Luo Mio, Amagiri Ayato, and the others for about ten seconds.
"Hehe..." Gustav pushed up his glasses and said, "Although I had anticipated all the unexpected events, I didn't expect to have overlooked this one."
"However..." Gustav raised his head, and the light of Stellar Power flickered in the glasses behind his glasses, with the Omni-element gathering around him.
Dozens of Magic Circle appeared in the sky above the palace, among which were two slightly more complex Magic Circle.
The next moment, two gigantic beasts resembling Chimera appeared from the two Magic Circle.
A giant two-headed dog and a three-headed dog.
"Hehe, let me introduce you. These are my two children, Orthrus and Cerberus."
Meanwhile, countless Lizard Dragon appeared flying in mid-air from the other Magic Circle.
Upon seeing so many magical beasts, Amagiri Ayato and the others also showed solemn expressions.
Normally, they would be absolutely confident in eliminating these magical beasts, but now behind them is the imperial palace, and inside the palace are so many people.
Faced with so many magical beasts, everyone thought of one person.
Only Kong, who possesses spatial abilities, can wipe out these monsters on a large scale.
But just as everyone was thinking this...
"No need to waste your time."
Gustav looked at Luo Mio and the others and grinned.
"I've watched all of Miss Luo Xiao Kong's matches at the Phoenix Star Dance Festival in detail. When she uses her unpredictable spatial skills, she always makes a subtle wave of her hand or a snap of her fingers."
With a gentlemanly smile but a murderous glint in his eyes, Gustav said, "So Miss Luo Xiao Kong, please don't make any moves, otherwise I can't guarantee that my children won't endanger His Majesty the King and the VIPs in the palace."
After they finished speaking, the Lizard Dragon in mid-air slowly lowered their altitude and approached the palace.
