I, the Sacrifice, Somehow Killed the Evil God - CH 88
★
The party had been going on for about an hour.
Serena was in a corner of the hall, dressed in a pale green dress.
“Uuuuuu, I can’t believe Alice got stuck with Elt like that.”
Serena’s cheeks puffed out in frustration as she looked towards the crowd of the people.
Her gaze locked on Elt and Alice in the center of the crowd.
“We have no choice. We can’t support Elt.”
Alicia, dressed in a light blue dress, said this as she brushed her hair up with her right hand.
In the first place, this proposal was made by Alice to Elt.
There are etiquette rules for parties of royalty and nobility.
This includes dancing with your escort partner, greetings, and so on.
If Elt were alone with another woman and said those words, he might have been subjected to something unpleasant.
Alice had taken on the role of guarding Elt to prevent that from happening.
“Is that what you want, Alicia? Alice is going to take Elt away from you, you know?”
“Uuu…. That’s….”
I consider Alice to be a beautiful woman. She has ideal proportions and a beautiful face that attracts people. There’s no guarantee that people won’t fall in love with such a woman, even if it’s Elt, when she interacts with him in a friendly manner.
“B, But… I can’t take my eyes off Marie-chan either, since Elt asked me to look over her.”
Alicia looked at the table and saw Marie eating a pile of food on her plate in one gulp.
“It’s so good! Aren’t you two going to eat?”
Unlike usual, Marie was dressed in a light yellow dress. Serena took out a handkerchief.
“Marie, you’ve got some on your mouth.”
“Uniya. ?”
She wiped her mouth. Since they had traveled together so far, Marie looked as vulnerable as Serena made her look.
The reason why the girls are here in the first place is because Elt has asked them to take care of Marie.
Serena, who contributed to the defeat of the Arc Demon, as well as Elt, were invited to the party. Alice, the representative of Irkutu Kingdom, had been invited to the party.
Alicia and Marie hadn’t been invited to the party, but they heard that there would be a sumptuous feast, as it was a party for royalty and nobility.
As a result, Marie, who has a keen eye for good food, said that she would be at the party.
Marie is the Queen of the Wind Spirits, but at the first glance she looks like a beast. However, her beauty is so far from humans that she stands out from her surroundings.
Unleashing such a presence at the party would cause more trouble than Elt. That’s why Elt asked Alicia and Serena to stay with her as her chaperones.
“Well, if this happens, the three of us will just have to enjoy ourselves.”
Since this was a party, Alicia and Serena had the same desire to be escorted by the person they wanted to be escorted by.
But at a party like this, where all the high class people gather, they are of a lower rank.
Only Alice could silence the women who flocked to Elt.
“This is delicious, you have to try it.”
Marie held out a fork with food stuck in each hand. Alicia and Serena laughed and they ate the food.
“It sure is delicious.”
“Yeah, I’ve never had anything like this before.”
Serena and Alice covered their mouths with their hands and said what they thought.
The three of them, enjoying their time together in harmony.
“Excuse me. Ladies, may I have a word with you?”
Three men dressed in tuxedos and with their hair all back were standing there.
“Um, what is it?”
In this case, Alicia, who had some experience in dealing with royalty, took care of it.
“I saw the pretty flowers blooming in the party hall, so I called out to them. If you wouldn’t mind, would you give me the honor of escorting you this evening?”
The three men, led by the man who called out to them, smiled. Their white teeth shone brightly, and a young lady who had been watching them from a distance let out a squeal.
As the men waited for the three girls to respond with grace, Serena said.
“Hmm, we’re fine, we’re just having fun.”
“Ha? Eh?”
The men, who hadn’t expected to get rejected, had their mouths open and made silly faces.
“B, but! I’m the third prince of the Saichii Kingdom!”
In his own country, his prestige would have been valid.
“S, so that beast woman over there. How about you? If you come with me, I’ll give you better dresses and decorations.”
The other men began to insist.
“I must refuse. The only person who can dress Marie and touch her is my Master.”
“Um, what about you…?”
“I’m fine too. I hope you all enjoy the party.”
They’ve been dumped by Serena, got sleeved by Marie, and got softly rejected by Alicia.
The three of them walked away with their shoulders slumped.
In this kind of situation, if they persist, they will get embarrassed and it will interfere with the rest of the party.
“What was that about?”
“Well? Now that the interloper is gone, let’s eat our dinner.”
“Did I do something wrong?”
The three of them tilted their heads, but the initial approach of the men was only the beginning.
All three of them were beautiful girls with exceptionally good looks, even at this party.
If they succeed, they would make perfect companions for the night. The men began to call out to each other in turn.
The three of them turned them down, bewildered by the men attacking them one after the other.
It was no wonder. They already had someone in mind and had even confessed their feelings.
These three were the top three shooters for the day, and the rejected men were left to console themselves with a drink in hand.
