Chapter 2448 Iluna Emilia and Ajelina
Ajelina took Carina to change clothes, while Miss Sylvia took Shad's arm and prepared to go to the party. Only a few words about the young witch's "pink and white" and "beautiful too" were left on the deck.
At six o'clock in the evening, everything was ready for the banquet for Shad and the ladies. Iluna, who was going to stay here tonight, also arrived in time. Even Sister Devlin, who rarely attended such occasions, came to the banquet hall on the ship.
Bright lights illuminated the cabin, and the music from the piano made the sound of high heels hitting the floor seem very melodious.
The banquet was still in buffet style, with the sumptuous food still steaming on the sterling silver plates. The "third seat" Sylvie Aurora, the "fifth seat" Megan/Audrey Edwards, the "seventh seat" Carina Cavendish, the "ninth seat" Vanessa Benanis, the "tenth seat" Bella Belindel, and the "twelfth seat" Emma Sylvia were all present.
The six great witches and the five witch apprentices, Tifa, Matilda, Margaret, Miss Swift, and Miss Hayley Aurora, can represent half of the members of the contemporary [Witch Council].
Miss Elizabeth marveled at the "grand occasion" and soon joined the dancing line with Shad.
The little unicorn was another focus of the pre-war banquet, because in addition to the witch, the witch apprentice, and Sirius, Luvia, Dorothy and others, other follower girls were also invited to the banquet, so the little unicorn caused quite a stir.
It was a little scared at first, but Emilia was always with it. And when little Liana found that once she was surrounded by people, she would not only have fruit to eat, but the cat would never come near her, she began to enjoy the atmosphere of the party.
As for Shad, he was certainly very busy. From the moment the girls in the opera troupe played the first note, he was surrounded by the girls.
The dance would not start until later, but that did not stop the girls from coming up to Shade and frequently asking him to play the "drinking game". However, with the physical fitness of Shade and the sorceresses, they would not have to worry about getting drunk or poisoned even if they drank industrial alcohol directly, not to mention the delicious champagne and red wine.
As for the so-called "banquet drinking games", the more elegant one was discussing classical literature with each other, and those who couldn't answer had to drink; the less elegant one was drawing cards, and those who drew the same cards had to drink wine from each other's cups or other ways of playing. Xia De lost seven times in a row, and he suspected that the young girls had cheated.
But not everyone gathered around Shad. For example, Miss Luvia and Miss Belindel left the banquet hall mysteriously, probably to divine something important. Miss Aurora and Miss Elither lined up to dance with Shad, and talked with the mermaid girls who were invited to the boat at the table.
Hillis, Tifa and Matilda were talking mysteriously in the corner. All three girls had blushing faces and occasionally looked at Shad in the crowd, and Margaret who passed by them and wanted to talk to Lecia. It seemed that they might be discussing food.
Sister Devlin just sat there, and the aura of the nun with the blindfold made the girls afraid to approach her.
Iluna originally wanted to take the initiative to say a few words to the nun, but when she saw the "Witch of the Earth" Vanessa Benanis take the initiative to come to the nun with a glass of wine, she turned around and talked to Ajelina who had just sat down.
Ajelina was wearing a beautiful little red dress, which was the only long banquet dress she brought from Yodel Palace in her luggage, because Leisia believed that Ajelina's purpose of coming to Moon Bay was not to attend the banquet.
The little princess was very reserved at first, because Dorothy was also here, which meant her sister was also here. But when she noticed that the blonde writer was sitting on the sofa and talking to Margaret very seriously, she quietly picked up a glass of champagne from the table.
She was seventeen years old and an adult, but Resia had never allowed her to drink. Although Queen Diana, who was seven months pregnant, was not so strict, Ajelina usually did not dare to pick up a glass of wine in front of her mother.
Now that she had the chance, she brought the champagne to the quietest spot at the end of the long table, and saw Iluna holding her face, watching the lively banquet with boredom.
Iluna glanced at the wine glass she was holding:
"Good evening. If you want to ask me why I'm sitting here, my answer is that I'm waiting for the dance to start. Besides, Shade and I have plenty of time to spend alone together. There's no need to join in the fun now."
She was actually too embarrassed to go over directly. Iluna Beas was not as bold as the witch apprentices. It seemed that the witches of the Sixth Epoch were not without their merits.
Ajelina and Iluna had met more than once, but they were not very familiar with each other. So she also greeted Iluna politely, then carefully adjusted her skirt and sat down with a glass of wine.
Fortunately, the atmosphere was not awkward, because the elf girl with pointy ears came over excitedly with a glass of juice:
"Little Lianna is really popular, but we really need to make her lose weight when we return to the academy. Maybe we can ask Shad for advice, Shad's cat Mia has maintained a very good figure. You see, this party is really lively, I have never attended a party on a ship, are you going to dance with Shad later, he is really popular~"
Emilia is the oldest of the three, but she is also the youngest in terms of race. Coincidentally, she, Iluna, and Ajelina all met in Tobesk in the first half of the summer vacation. Although she has a better relationship with the little princess, she actually has a good relationship with Iluna as well.
With Emilia mediating, the three young girls soon began chatting happily.
Iluna was born in the church, Ajelina was a royal princess, and Emilia grew up in Saint Byrons. The three had completely different backgrounds, but once they started talking, they found that they actually got along quite well.
So for their own reasons, they did not attend the lively banquet that followed. This was actually very tempting, as each witch took out her own collection as a prize.
Only when the dance began did the girls, who were arranged in different orders, stand up modestly, tell their companions that they wanted to leave for a while, and then walk towards Xia De with their skirts lifted.
The three of them danced with Xia De respectively, and then continued to talk about their lives and past events.
Before we knew it, it was already late on Saturday night. The violin had stopped playing, and Xia De had been dragged away by someone. The girls who attended the party also returned to their respective posts.
Sunday is just a few hours away, and most people will definitely not sleep tonight.
Iluna and the other two didn't want to rest for the time being. Although the banquet was over and only a few maids were left to clean up, they were still sitting at one end of the long table chatting happily.
The table was covered with midnight snacks, teapots and wine glasses. The elf girl ended her topic about "St. Byron's Elf Dormitory". It was late at night. The three of them picked up the wine glasses and tea cups in front of them, and suddenly felt a little lonely and bored.
"Oh, Iluna, there's something I forgot to tell you."
The pointy-eared elf girl suddenly said:
"You asked me to help investigate Shad's staff and 'Yggdrasil'. I have already found the result. That word probably means World Tree. Shad's staff is probably a branch of the World Tree. It is not common, and I don't know where he got it from."
Iluna's eyes lit up, and she was almost certain that among the conditions for ultimately saving Shad that "if" told her, "resurrecting the dead" was referring to Shad's staff.
"But how do we revive the World Tree?"
She was immediately shocked by her own idea, then frowned, feeling that this condition seemed even more difficult to achieve.
Ajelina was not quite sure what they were talking about, but seeing that no one suggested leaving the table, the little red-haired princess looked around and saw that Dorothy was no longer there, so she boldly suggested to her two friends:
"Everyone has gone to work or rest. Since we have nothing to do before midnight, do you want to play some exciting games?"
Her face was full of excitement, and the pointy-eared elf girl's eyes lit up:
"Do you want to sneak into your sister's room and try on her clothes?"
Iluna temporarily put her worries aside, as they were a puzzle that needed to be solved after the Battle of Moon Bay. She smiled with her hands covering her mouth, while Ajelina slightly raised her head:
"Emilia, do you think this is exciting? No, no, no, we are not children anymore. Let's play a drinking game! It's the kind of game where one person says 'I have never' done something, and if others have done it, they need to take a sip of wine!"
She deliberately lowered her voice in the second half of the sentence.
"I heard about this game from the dwarf uncle in the tavern!"
The elf girl blushed:
"But the goblin bartender at the tavern never sold me any alcohol. He said that he was more worried about the academy revoking his alcohol license than my few coins."
“Sounds like a great game.”
Iluna also said with a smile, inspired by the two girls who were younger than her:
"I'll go get some wine, but we can't drink too much. If we're caught, Shade will definitely scold you."
She put herself in a more "mature" position than Emilia and Ajelina, then happily went to talk to the maid, and successfully brought back three clean glass goblets and the leftover red wine from the banquet.
They were very excited to do this "exciting" thing late at night after the party without telling others. Emilia, who was not allowed to drink in the academy, didn't even care about the little unicorn who had already strolled back to rest, and personally took the bottle and poured half a glass of wine for everyone.
So the three of them raised their glasses and clinked them in the air, and everyone laughed happily. The maids who were cleaning naturally noticed the actions of the three girls, and they all smiled and shook their heads, but did not stop them.
PS: The specific content of the "drinking game" between Iluna, Emilia and Ajelina will not appear in the main text. This content is irrelevant to the main line, and it is suspected of padding the word count if placed here. It is better not to drag it out too much before the final battle.
Therefore, this part of the content will be updated as a free extra chapter after the end of this volume, so stay tuned.
