Ch. 64 - Masquerade of Temptation (3)
Just a few minutes ago.

The ballroom.

Da-landan-dan, da-rala-dan

The rhythm became increasingly intense, beyond what a human leg could keep up with.

However, even in the midst of that, Jecky was able to
dance comfortably.

After all, she had a total of four legs.

"Well, what is that...!"

It was already challenging enough to follow the dance with two legs, let alone four.

Edna looked at it and exclaimed, her face turning pale.

"Stop, Jecky! If you get consumed by the role of Lady Aeron any further, there's no turning back!"

"Shut up!"

"It could become a terrible sight! If you get consumed any further, it will be irreversible!"

"What do you know!"

With anger-filled emotions, Jecky’s dance became even more intense.

Her dance didn't stray from the boundaries of modern ballroom dance, but she alternated between waltz and tango offbeat.

She suddenly danced alone as if there were two people, intensified the rhythm, and chaotic patterns emerged haphazardly.

Jecky’s magic thrilled in all directions.

Sound waves vibrated, musical notes struck the air, and rays created by sound seemed to tear objects apart.

Yet, despite the three girls enduring, two additional legs sprung out from Jecky, making a total of six legs.

"Ugh!"

One of the fallen students let out a dry heave.

From that point on, it was less beautiful and closer to a grotesque and terrible sight. However, the nobles still cheered and applauded to the rhythm of Lady Aeron’s dance.

"As expected! You're beautiful!"

"You're the best dancer!"

"Punish those foolish challengers, Lady Aeron!"

"It's a dance so beautiful that it can't be compared to foolish challengers!"

When Lady Aeron stomped on the ground, fireworks exploded, lights shattered in a splendid display, and specks of light fluttered in the air.

The space folded, and a stage exclusively for Lady Aeron rose up, with red pouring down from the walls, creating a red carpet for her.

Jecky started dancing with her six legs, even claiming the surrounding terrain as her own.

Edna felt the intensifying offensive magic and bit her lip, and her face turned pale.

‘This is too much of a stretch…’

The sensation at the tips of her toes was fading away.

Eisel’s legs were already tired, and she barely managed to stand in a precarious position.

Hong Bi-Yeon, driven solely by willpower and determination, endured and kept enduring, but she, too, had reached her limit.

Watching their state, Edna bit her lip.

‘This won't do…’

From the moment the character named Jecky possessed Aeron, the story took a completely different turn from what she knew.
