Lands beyond the fog (Male Elden Ring Reader x Countryhumans) [On Hold]

Fancy Party

< Third Person POV >

The fateful Saturday had arrived, and Y/N found himself in his room, preparing for the event. Nervousness filled his mind as he contemplated the unknown territory he was about to enter. While he had attended multiple parties of aristocrats before, today was different. What if there were formal manners and etiquette he was unaware of?

Undeterred by these thoughts, Y/N continued to fumble with the bow tie on his collar. The suit sent by France was made from a comfortable fabric, but Y/N couldn't shake off the feeling of awkwardness in unfamiliar clothes. He longed to don his usual attire, but he had been informed that in their society, it would be considered more akin to old nightgowns and his Uniform was still in the Lands Between. Embracing the unfamiliar, he took a deep breath and resolved to make the most of the formal attire for the evening.

The clothing vendor had opted for a more creative approach with the two-piece suit. The main color was a striking dark red, a departure from the traditional blues and blacks. The suit was held together by four elegant golden buttons, adding a touch of sophistication. Y/N paired it with a crisp black dress shirt and a white clip tie, creating a stylish contrast. The red pants extended down to the clean black shoes, and featured two small pockets at the front, adding a subtle element of functionality to the ensemble. The overall effect was both eye-catching and refined.

Despite his limited knowledge of modern fashion in this world, Y/N couldn't deny that the suit looked incredibly good on him, even before he had put on a single piece. He had a hunch that it must be an expensive ensemble, particularly with the golden accents. However, when he reached out to France about the cost, she assured him that it was alright. Y/N's insistence, however, eventually led France to eagerly agree, on the condition that he would pay her back with a delightful dinner. It was a fair trade-off, and Y/N felt a sense of gratitude towards France for her kindness and understanding.

On the bed lays a striking red top hat adorned with a magnificent and voluminous feather on its right side. Y/N hesitated for a moment, unsure if he should don the hat. He appreciated the sense of completeness it brought to his ensemble, but he was also concerned that it might be too extravagant. Ultimately, he decided to wear it, reasoning that he could always fold it and tuck it inside the suit if he felt it was too much.

As Y/N descended the stairs and made his way to the entrance hall, he spotted his dates standing by the door, engaged in a pleasant conversation. Unaware of his presence, they continued to chat, their attention fully focused on each other for now.

EU, dressed in a suit similar to Y/N's, wore a striking white ensemble with golden accents. The suit fit him perfectly, complementing his stature. He paired it with a crisp blue dress shirt and a vibrant red bow tie, adding a touch of color to his attire. Unlike Y/N, EU did not have any headgear, allowing his neatly styled hair to take the spotlight.

On the other hand, UN opted for an almost all-white outfit, exuding an air of elegance. He wore a pristine white shirt and matching pants, while a beautifully designed, large white tie adorned his neck. Over the white ensemble, he sported a well-tailored blue vest, adding a subtle touch of sophistication to his attire. The combination of white and blue created a harmonious and classy look for UN.

As both UN and EU caught sight of Y/N, their jaws dropped in awe. It was the first time Y/N had unveiled his suit to anyone, and the effect was truly captivating. The suit accentuated his already remarkable features, making him appear even more striking and attractive. They couldn't help but feel incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity to accompany such a charismatic individual on their outing.
