As you stepped into the grand ballroom, you were immediately greeted by a scene of opulence and extravagance. The walls were adorned with glistening chandeliers and plush velvet drapes in shades of gold and crimson. The floor was polished marble, reflecting the light from the ceiling, and leading to the resplendent stage at the far end of the room. The atmosphere was electric with the buzz of excitement and anticipation, as people dressed in their finest formal wear mingled and chatted amongst themselves, sipping on glasses of champagne and nibbling on hors d'oeuvres passed around by the attentive waitstaff. You picked up two glasses filled with exorbitantly expensive champagne and downed them both.
The room was filled with the elite of society, all dressed in their finest attire, with sparkling jewellery, and perfectly coiffed hair. The ladies were in glamorous evening gowns, the kind that could grace the pages of fashion magazines, and the men were in impeccably tailored suits that screamed money and power. The guests were a mix of celebrities, politicians, business moguls, and influential individuals who had made a name for themselves in their respective fields.
The stage was adorned with floral arrangements that looked like they were handpicked from the gardens of royalty, and the set design was so elaborate, it almost looked like something straight out of a Hollywood blockbuster. The spotlight was shining bright on the stage, and the emcee was just about to begin the event. The energy in the room was electric, with everyone eagerly awaiting the start of the ceremony. You and the rest of the Armed Detective Agency members were seated in the front row, with you sandwiched between Atsushi and Yosano, your two closest friends. Next to Yosano sat Dazai and his wife, his daughter, Sora, sat peacefully on Dazai's lap, her big brown eyes sparkling at all the pretty lights and flowers in front of her. As the emcee began to speak, the room instantly fell silent, with everyone hanging onto his every word. The speakers on stage were of the highest quality, and the sound resonated throughout the ballroom, ensuring that every word was heard by all. The air was filled with the aroma of expensive perfumes and colognes, and the occasional sound of champagne glasses clinked in celebration.
As President Fukuzawa stepped onto the stage, the room instantly erupted in a thunderous round of applause, and you could see the pride on everyone's face, which made your insides warm. Really, you shouldn't have been celebrating with them, because technically, you were still part of the Decay of Angels, but you couldn't help it—the more time you spent with them, the more they were starting to grow on you. The President looked dashing in his black tuxedo, his head held high as he accepted the award from Tonan, his smile beaming with gratitude and pride. The Armed Detective Agency and the rest of the guests rose to their feet, giving him a standing ovation as he raised the award high above his head in triumph.
The excitement in the room was palpable, and you could feel the energy pulsing through the air. The ceremony was a true testament to the power and influence of the Armed Detective Agency and its members. As the guests began to mingle and chat amongst themselves, you couldn't help but feel grateful to be in the presence of such extraordinary individuals and to be a part of something so prestigious—even though you knew you weren't supposed to feel that way due to your current circumstances.
