Chapter 114
Isilia’s banquets were always splendid, elegant, and grand.
Sanctuarium, the Holy Kingdom and currently the strongest nation on the Lachman Continent, forbade holding such lavish parties due to its religious nature.
As for Lucon, Abentrot, and Schaten, they lacked the refined culture that Isilia possessed in the first place.
For the diplomatic officials of each nation, it was an event that delighted the eyes, ears, and palate.
Khal swirled his wine glass, surveying the banquet hall with an indifferent expression.
Across the room, Lily, dressed in an elegant gown, was busy greeting various officials.
Even though she came from a commoner background, her position as the Student Council President of Partes Academy carried a special status, and the nobles welcomed her with warm smiles.
‘She’s as busy as ever.’
A faint smirk played on his lips.
Seeing her working so hard somehow made the corners of his mouth lift.
Ssh!
At 그 moment, someone suddenly approached from behind and covered his eyes.
“Guess who~?”
Warm hands blocked his vision as the innocent voice of a young girl reached his ears.
“What are you doing?”
Khal gently brushed her hands away and turned around.
There stood Eri, her cheeks puffed out in mock disappointment.
“Khal, you’ve become so cold. Though you were always cold to begin with.”
“What are you talking about?”
Khal’s brow furrowed at her nonsensical rambling, but then, struck by a sudden doubt, he posed a question to her.
“Anyway, is it really okay for you to show your face at such an important event?”
