The royal family of Lumengarde, led by the crown prince, threw a breakfast banquet the next day, inviting all the nobles of the city as well as the Sages, of which the invitation was honored and they were all made to attend—except for Lucy and Athenae, who had healed but needed to rest, and then Aaron, who was under house arrest by the Sages and was strictly watched until they returned to the island.
Felix wasn't happy with the dress picked out for him for the event. It was a pretty red gown that would have been just perfect for any other girl, but it was too girly for him. It made him feel like he was on pins and needles going around with a Cinderella dress, and so he chose not to move around too much during the banquet and just sat in one spot as the noble families approached him one after the other to greet and thank him like a celebrity meet-and-greet.
