I followed up the disk until I was in front of a gigantic black door adorned with gold feathers. The disk then disappeared, understanding that we had arrived at destination. I looked at the time and it was 20:20. Better late than never, I thought. By taking a deep breath, I opened the huge door and entered the room.

It looked like I was in a castle. Everything was white and blue, with some decorations in gold. There was a big buffet of every food you can possibly imagine, and food that I have never seen before. There were big windows on the sides that showed space, and my eyes could not believe that sight.

It was beautiful. I then returned my gaze to the crowd of people that was swarming around the room and noticed that many of them were staring at me with sinister eyes. Probably because I was the only late one. I just rolled my eyes and headed towards the buffet.

To my surprise, they served alcohol as well. That was going to be a fun night. I decided to drink something first. I took a cup of what seemed to be champagne and to my surprise it tasted really sweet. As I was looking around I noticed many new faces, and for the first time there were even men there, with their possessions next to them. Disgusting.

I turned around and spotted Maze and Talila talking to each other, while looking at me. Maze had a very, very tight short dress with black tights. Her horns were adorned with red and black flowers. Talila was wearing a dark blue and purple dress, which was long in the back and short in the front. The back of the dress had the same effect as mine, it seemed like it never ended. Her shoes looked like climbing plants, with purple and blue flowers that adorned her legs until her knees.

I kept looking around and then I finally spotted Hyourin talking to Laerdya. He had his jet auburn black hair pulled back, with a few strands falling over his forehead. He had a black suit which was really simple but on him it looked spectacular. What am I even thinking, for God's sake.

On the other hand, Laerdya looked everything but classy. Her pink hair was put in a very complicated high bun. She was wearing a long deep red dress. It had two opening on the sides which went up until her waist. I was impressed that her intimate parts were not showing since it was barely covered.

She was laughing, same as him and then Hyourin turned his gaze and it fell on me.

My heart stopped and it seemed like time itself had stopped. He wasn't laughing anymore, but he just starred at me, probably not even recognizing it was me. His icy eyes were piercing right through me and for a moment, I felt vulnerable, as if he knew everything about me, as if I was transparent.

I saw him murmuring something to Laerdya, who noticed that her lord was looking at me, and seemed not pleased with that at all. He then started to head over my way, with his usual grin pasted on his face. I quickly moved away my gaze and focused on finishing my drink, realizing that it was already my third one. Oops.

"Well, well, well, so even you can look decent if you really wanted to" Lord Hyourin said amused. From up close he looked even better, and I hated myself even more for thinking that way.

"Thank you. On the other hand, you always remain the same. Irritating and bothersome" I smiled sarcastically.

He smiled down at me. "How generous of you" he said. "So, how do you find this event of mine?".
