Queen Christina said some words of thanks and the dance began. The first song was naturally the dance performed by His Majesty Aries and the Queen. Immediately afterwards, the handsome men and beautiful women began to look for dance partners. This was a great opportunity to openly express their feelings. For the beautiful mermaid lady, being reserved was completely unnecessary in such occasions.
Xiao Bote and Roye, who originally wanted to take action, were immediately surrounded by enthusiastic mermaids. It would be very impolite to refuse the invitation of a noble lady in this situation. The only problem was the choice of the two.
Of course, Clara, Alina, and Isabel are also the targets of other young royals and nobles. Alina is better off because the Sea Dragons do not have as many romantic cells as the Mermaids. The Sea Dragons also have the strictest requirements for women, as can be seen from the strict prohibition of intermarriage... They are extremely feudal and stingy. Of course, the women of the Sea Dragons have also developed a unique arrogance because of this. Refusal is their privilege, not to mention Alina, who is a princess.
Therefore, those who invited Elena would not be unhappy after being rejected. They had no intention of succeeding in the first place, and it would be strange if Princess Elena accepted their invitation.
Clara is the real protagonist. There are many brave people, but unfortunately Princess Clara is not very interested in these people. She is famous for her willfulness. She will never do anything she doesn't like and will not force herself. As for other people's face, she doesn't care. Besides, as a princess, she doesn't need to consider these things at all.
So when Clara pushed away everyone and walked towards Caesar, many people present already had unhappy expressions on their faces.
"Classmate Caesar, as a gentleman, shouldn't you invite me to dance?"
The sound was not loud, but the people around were listening with their ears perked up and their eyes wide open, waiting to see the excitement. Xiao Bote and Colorio had the ugliest expressions. Although Colorio had heard some rumors, he still didn't quite believe them. Originally, it was a good thing to recruit a talent like Caesar for one's own use, but now it seemed that it would be better to get rid of this man.
"Ahem, well, Princess, shouldn't you dance with the other princes? I'm not very good at dancing."
Caesar was thinking about his wording... God of the sea, Elena was standing by and watching him closely, he wouldn't dare to do it even if he had the guts. Besides, he just wanted to dance with Elena, and being recognized in front of everyone was what he wanted. However, he also knew that this was just thought, and the meaning was completely different.
"Why are you so long-winded? Look at these guys, they are so lecherous. No one would jump with them. They are all guys who want to take advantage of the opportunity."
Although the people around didn't dare to point fingers openly, some of them wondered if this member of the Bei tribe had a problem with his brain. It was such a great joy that the princess took the initiative to invite him, but he actually dared to refuse. He really had his eyes on the top of his head. Could it be that he wanted to wait for Princess Hailong to invite him?
...The problem is that Princess Elena is also walking towards this side, and so is Miss Ishabelle.
"Classmate Caesar is so generous. Please dance now. Others are watching us. Besides, today is the princess' mother's birthday. We shouldn't refuse."
There was a somewhat sour taste in Elena's mouth, but she could still see the current situation clearly. While she admired Clara's boldness, she could only calmly let things develop in the best direction.
"Yes, Caesar, you must dance with me in the next song."
Yisha Bei'er gently fanned the delicate and small jade fan, and her smart charm made people feel good about her.
Under the triple pressure, he had no choice but to dance. If it was a battle, Caesar would definitely take the lead, but this kind of thing was really a headache. The old man had taught him some, but he didn't take it seriously when he learned it, and it was still very different from the sea people. Under Clara's guidance, he held her little hand, gently embraced her delicate waist, and danced gracefully to the music.
"Huh, you said you couldn't dance, you're really skilled at it."
Elena, who was drinking the wine handed to her by the waiter, couldn't help but say that the man should have been hers. It was impossible for her to say that she had no thoughts in her mind. Clara, this little goblin, was abusing her power for personal gain.
"Sister Elena, you seem very anxious." Yisa Belle beside her laughed, and then Elena also drove away the sea flies around her. She was not very interested in these playboys. She did not like that kind of arrogant aristocratic air.
"Sister Isabel seems to be very familiar with Caesar, but I remember you two have only met once?" Elena looked at Isabel thoughtfully.
"As a shrewd businessman, you can naturally see the value of everyone. Caesar is very worth investing in." Who is Yisa Belle? Anyone who can overwhelm her with words is either buried in the ground or has not yet been born.
"Oh, I'd like to hear more about it."
Elena is also very interested in this business genius who can influence the sea people. In the rare exchanges they have with him, she can appreciate his unique wisdom, his excessive maturity and meticulousness that they do not possess.
"It's actually very simple. Being favored by two princesses is the biggest reason!"
Yisha Bei'er smiled with a mixture of genuine and fake laughter.
At this moment, Caesar appeared to be calm and composed, but in fact he was sitting on pins and needles, and he unknowingly used more strength in his hands.
"Be gentle. If you want to take revenge on me, be careful that my father will chop off your head!" Clara said angrily. She didn't expect that this silly boy was so good at dancing. It seems that not all of his words before were true.
Sweat..., "I'm too nervous, can you please stop dancing?"
"Tsk, are you a man? I'm not afraid of you, so why should you be afraid? It's just a dance. I'm not asking you to go through fire and water. You look so nervous. At least finish the dance, otherwise it will be so embarrassing."
Wow, how can I not be nervous? Compared to this, I would rather climb a mountain of knives or plunge into a frying pan of oil.
Caesar was now in a dilemma and had to hold on. He would glance at Elena from time to time and found that Elena was also paying close attention to his every move. This made him even more nervous and he kicked Clara. Fortunately, Clara was alert enough and quickly stepped away from him and glared at Caesar.
"Damn babe, be serious. If you keep being indecisive, I'll pester you all night!"
Han, if this is true, it will probably become the headline of the entire Mermaid Sea the next day.
Clara was still a little reluctant to go, but the music had changed and it was time to change partners. Yishabeier looked at Alina and said with a smile, "Sister Alina, if you don't go, then I will."
Elena really wanted to, but it was not in line with the rules of the Sea Dragon Clan for a woman to take the initiative. What's more, Roye and the Sea Dragon guards were all eyeing her covetously... If Caesar was bolder at this time, she would have also given it a try.
It is said that lovers have telepathy, and this is absolutely true.
Caesar, who had finally gotten rid of Clara, felt an impulse in his heart. He couldn't let this go on. As a man, he should be manly. Inviting the princess to dance with him was not a matter of life and death. To be honest, he had been enduring the Sea Dragon Clan's stinky rules for a long time. If he hadn't been weak, he would have eloped with Elena long ago. His strength was constantly increasing, and perhaps he would not be qualified to propose a marriage to the Sea Dragon King Karaso, but that would be sooner or later. But tonight, he felt that as a man, he should dance with the woman he loved.
Caesar is also an impulsive person who thinks and does it.
When Caesar walked towards Elena, their eyes met and they immediately understood each other's feelings.
Courage? They never lacked it.
"Your Highness the beautiful Princess Elena, may I have the honor of asking you to dance with me?" Caesar's voice was firm and calm. In fact, it is easy to say that the results of many things may not be the same as the actual results. Sometimes they are even the opposite.
"It's my honor, Caesar-san."
The smiles on their faces were only understood by themselves.
Some of the nobles knew a little about Caesar, while some did not know him at all, but after this ball everyone would definitely know him. Princess Clara took the initiative to invite him, and Princess Elena, who had always been relatively quiet, actually accepted his invitation for the first time. This was definitely big news.
When the two of them danced together, the people around them were immediately eclipsed. If other people's dancing was only in form, then Caesar and Elena had both spirit and charm. Although it was a slow dance, Caesar and Elena both cherished this rare opportunity very much. Both of them were a little forgetful and looked at each other affectionately, dancing in their hearts. The woman was stunning, and although the man could not be said to be handsome, he was handsome enough, and his angular face was full of heroic spirit, which was the real masculinity that was honed through hard work.
Even Aries and Queen Christina were a little surprised. "Queen, this young man looks familiar, especially his eyes. I feel like I've seen him somewhere before."
"Your Majesty, this young man is the pillar of Reef Academy. The teacher values him very much. He is also a rare person in our sea clan who practices both magic and martial arts. His future is limitless!"
The Queen told His Majesty Aries that the other party could use compression magic after just one look. It seemed that this young man had great talent. No wonder he heard that the two principals had fought over a student some time ago, and Lao Jiao asked for an increase in the budget. It seemed that it was true.
