The Villain’s Sister Suffers Today-Chapter 68
Episode 68
Translator : Missme Editor : Aru
“Thank God. Anyway, I came prepared.”
Ari had a stiff look in her eyes.
Well, yeah, she’s already here anyway.
Even if it’s outdoors, it’s the support of the mansion.
In addition, there’s Dylan and Sir Davery, so I decided to stop worrying about the worst case that could happen.
Soon the time came, so I moved with Ari to the party venue.
After arriving at the party venue in the backyard, I could see what Bessie said with “simple but luxurious outdoor party” was.
‘She even called an orchestra?’
Apart from food like a buffet on a business trip, I was speechless when I saw an orchestra playing a soft melody on one side of the backyard.
In the middle of the table, there was something that I believed to be a magic light.
‘Isn’t that expensive?’
I thought it was too expensive for its utility, so I thought who would buy such a thing…..
But I can’t believe I saw it here.
‘Even several of it.’
How much is that?
The budget used for the outdoor party seemed to be quite full-fledged.
In fact, just looking at the flowers all over the table beside the magic lights would make me think that way.
The colourful flowers that did not bloom in this season were shining brightly and vividly.
Do you know what that means? It all means the power of money.
‘Because the greenhouse in this world is maintained by magic.’
And here, in this world, the price of a wizard was enormous, and it was usual for the aristocratic family to call a wizard for the related things.
Although I’m curious about it, I didn’t want to know how much money went into this party.
“Wow, what a beautiful sight!”
Ari innocently admired the money set up outdoors -party and seems like the atmosphere.
Bessie greeted us triumphantly.
“Today is a day when everyone has to enjoy the party.”
‘I’m sure I’ll become a high-level sinner if I don’t enjoy it.’
Perhaps that’s why the knights of the mansion were dressed in their own uniforms instead of silver armour today.
So was Sir Davery. Dylan burst into an excitement without missing the opportunity (?).
“Oh, dear. Sir Davery Sack. It looks good.”
“…… Dylan.”
“It looks good on you. It fits well like a loose-fitting swallow with nothing to do.”
“Do you want to start a quarrel as soon as you see me?”
“What do you mean a quarrel? It’s a compliment that you’re handsome.”
“Dylan like that, too, too lightly and casually dressed that doesn’t suit the place is very nice. It fits well with Dylan too.”
“This swallow.”
“What do you say?”
While the two people met after a few days were godly venting their repentance, I accepted Ari’s drink from a nearby table.
I took a sip and then I hesitated.
“Ari, did you know what drink this is?”
“It’s a drink.”
“It’s alcohol. Don’t drink it. You’re a minor.”
“Eonni, Agrita Grace is an adult.”
“What?”
Ari continued her speech with a calm face.
“Eonni, please think about it. It’s the body that drinks and enjoys the alcohol. It doesn’t matter how old I am here.”
“Hooho?”
“And it doesn’t matter if the mind is more dependent than the body. I’m a heavy drinker.”
“How do you know you’re a heavy drinker, freshman? Have you tried it?”
“There’s a family history.”
“So you’ll drink alcohol now?”
“I mean, I don’t have to bother to bring back what I’ve brought back.”
I laughed at Ari’s blatant claim.
Is it a characteristic of people her age who want to try to drink alcohol that doesn’t taste good anyway?
‘Well, I was like that around that time.’
I pretended to dry it a little, and then I just let Ari do what she wanted.
Soon after, Ari, who had swallowed a drink enthusiastically, looked at me with the eyes that I knew she would wear an arrogant image, and suddenly looked in the uproar near her.
Ash, surrounded by a roar among the knights, came into view.
Ash, fully dressed in creamy coloured tailed-coat, was wonderful.
As I stared involuntarily in my mind, I turned my gaze away from eye contact.
It was then, I saw Bessie approached the butler and tapped him and whispered something.
The butler made an expression of helplessness at Bessie’s words and then raised his voice.
“Dear friends, during the party this butler dares to ask you a question.”
The butler, who was beginning to talk to the crowd, continued.
“What do you think is the flower of this party?”
“Me, I’ll answer.”
“Yes, sir over there.”
“That’s the dance.”
The knight, who raised his hand, answered proudly without hesitation.
“That’s correct.”
I was looking at the naturally occurring questions and answers as if they had planned them beforehand, and then I met the butler’s eyes.
‘Huh?’
“Then, if you don’t mind, this butler would like to ask my lady and the Duke to bloom this party.”
“Ah.”
Bessie helped in an exaggerated tone as if Bessie had waited.
“If only I could see the dance between the lady and the Duke at this moment, I would die and have no regrets!”
‘What?’
And starting with that, everyone started to agree with their opinions.
The atmosphere of the backyard flowed in unison in an instant.
Especially the knights that surrounded Ash, they wanted to push him out of the way but couldn’t, but instead, they scattered and made a path.
“Wow, dance! Eonni, show us the dance.”
In the meantime, Ari, who drank only a few of those sips, was pushing my back, smiling thoughtlessly.
‘You said you were a heavy drinker.’
I walked a few steps toward Ash.
At that moment I could see Bessie twinkling at the orchestra, shining her eyes.
Soon after, the melody surrounding the place changed.
‘No, of all people.’
It was when I was bewildered by the tune I heard a lot somewhere. Ash came close to me at a leisurely pace.
It doesn’t seem like the situation he was guessing in advance, but he seemed to be trying to match the beat.
“Beautiful Lady.”
I held back my hiccups when Ash reached out his hand like a joke.
“Will you please give me the honour to dance this song with you?”
I hesitated, but the answer was already decided.
“…… gladly.”
Ash naturally led me to the open area.
I moved stiffly, somewhat hardened by tension.
It’s not that I’ve never danced this way with Ash.
No, it was familiar if I were used to it. It was common for a party star to dance with his father or brother at a party like a birthday party.
‘But.’
I raised my head and posed, hoping that my eyelashes wouldn’t shake.
‘My situation is a little different from that time and now.’
There was something else that put me in trouble here.
‘More importantly, this song is…….’
Ash skillfully led the dance to the sweet and calm melody created by the orchestra.
The gap has been narrowed down.
‘The men and women are too close to each other while dancing.’
I held my breath, conscious of the close gap between Ash and me.
The movements were simple and trivial from beginning to end.
There was hardly any intense movement. If my heart beats too much, it means I have a long way to hide or make excuses.
‘It’d be weird to hear the heartbeats sound loud.’
It was when my nerves were focused on that thought.
Ash suddenly bent over my waist and wound up and leaned back. The upper body fell backwards.
“Yap!
After a short scream, my posture stood right up.
I looked at Ash with a ‘what this was all about’ look. As far as I know, there was no such dynamic movement in this song.
Ash smiled wholeheartedly.
“I don’t think you can concentrate on dancing.”
I’m speechless. I was thinking about retorting that this now made me more distracted on dancing, but then I stopped.
‘Oh, no.’
Come to think of it, I think it helped a little.
Now I can blame that my heart was beating because I’m surprised.
“Noonim, what were you thinking like that?”
“Just this and that……you surprised me by the way.”
“Wasn’t it thrilling?”
“If I had fallen, I might have been thrilled to hit the floor.”
“Oh, no. I would never do that to you.”
I took Ash’s hand and turned around once.
It was the climax of this dance and the biggest part of the entire song.
After a smooth turn, I faced Ash again closely. I put my left hand on Ash’s shoulder and made eye contact.
Suddenly the moonlight poured out.
At this time, Ash’s face was so handsome that I thought it was cheating.
I complimented myself deeply for barely keeping up with the next move.
Soon the not-so-long song was over.
“……Ash.”
“……..”
“Dance, it’s over.”
“Yes.”
Ash let go of my hand quite slowly.
Thanks to this, I was released late after the song was over and I was in Ash’s arms for a while.
In fact, if people around me hadn’t woken me up with applause, I might have been doing that for much longer.
As soon as I turned back in my seat, I pressed my cheek with the back of my hand to confirm.
‘Is it hot?’
It might have turned a little red, but fortunately, it was a bit of an excuse. Because I drank. In one gulp
Soon, the orchestra played a distinctively faster and stronger melody than before.
It was a popular dance song that everyone can enjoy lightly, even the children.
Bessie and Alex showed off their dance skills, which they said they had secretly honed, but at some point, they joined forces and danced together.
And Ari’s feared crisis was nothing more than thought. A tree that was fine suddenly collapsed and almost hit Ari.
The tree was handled simply by Sir Davery and Dylan working together.
The party was ripe.
Perhaps the last night of the harvest festival, which I may not have again, was passing.
