Lucky 357
At a social banquet where the wealthy and nobility were gathered. A strange sight could be seen in the corner. A woman with nine tails was standing there, and her presence seemed to attract the attention of all the guests. The woman had a mysterious air about her, and it was clear that she was not one of the usual attendees at such an event.
The guests were both intrigued and intimidated by her presence, and no one dared to approach her. Despite the curiosity of the guests, the woman remained in the corner. She quietly observed the festivities.
She even seemed to be enjoying herself, as if the party itself was nothing special to her. Even her tails seemed to twirl slowly.
She sipped her champagne while her eyes wandered around. To be honest, she had simply been invited to the banquet. She didn't dare to refuse, because the one who invited her was royalty. So she decided to keep a low profile.
'Even though the media shows that this country is free of racial discrimination, I disagree.'
The nine-tailed fox, Shoujo Ramune, could see that she was one of the few Beastkins at the banquet. Most of the attendees were humans and half-elves.
'Our race was only liberated a few centuries ago. Perhaps that's one of the reasons why there are only a few prominent Beastkins at this banquet. Our race doesn't have enough power to compete with these old nobles...'
Although she was thinking of something dark, the sweet smile on her face was always there. After all, she was a great actress.
Besides, the eyes of the participants were on her. Most of them were men, and these men couldn't hide their lust for her. Shoujo Ramune was beautiful in her blue nude dress, her orange hair tied in a bun and her neck bare.
Her tails swayed gently behind her as she continued to sip her champagne. With a gentle look on her face.
The fox demoness felt that her charm and beauty would soon attract a man or two. She smiled and looked around. As far as she could tell, most of the men in the room were interested in her. She was a famous actress with many awards under her belt.
"Good evening, Miss Ramune."
Suddenly, someone who was brave enough greeted her. The man was tall and handsome, radiating confidence and power.
"Hm, it's nice to meet you, Young Master Methecula Rosanic."
Shoujo nodded. The man in front of her was one of the strongest Vindicators of her generation. Perhaps second only to the Crown Prince.
Methecula Rosanic was already a 3rd Advanced TA User at the age of 31. He was known as the Master of the Sky because of his ability to command the wind.
The Rosanic Clan is a clan of wind mages. Their roots began in the southern part of the continent. They moved their headquarters when the Aberrants were rampant.
But even now, their clan was still strong and became one of the pillars of Junian.
'Unlike the recently blooming clans, the Rosanic are true nobles with hundreds of years of history... He is useful.'
"I have seen your latest movie and all I can say is that you deserve another Hoescar statue. Unfortunately, the Academy will never give this statue to an actor twice."
"It's an honor."
Shoujo replied, looking up at him. She was already used to this kind of praise. She was already tired of this typical flattery, to be honest.
'Is that the best pick-up line you can come up with? I'm disappointed.'
"Are you having fun?"
He asked.
She nodded.
"I am, thank you."
Methecula then asked something else, but another person arrived and joined their conversation.
"What a wonderful night to see the young master of the Rosanic Clan and the greatest actress in the world talking."
"Your Highness."
When his voice resounded, both Methecula and Shoujo bowed their heads in respect.
Not only them, but everyone at the banquet bowed to the Crown Prince. He was like the sun that brought warmth to all of Junian. His radiance lit up every room he passed through. Everyone sees him as the next king and savior of the kingdom, for he deserves it. He is strong, talented, handsome, and noble. He is perfect.
Methecula was glad to see the prince. Especially since the prince did not usually grace anyone with his presence. However, Shoujo Ramune knew the Crown Prince's intention.
It was the Crown Prince who had invited her to this noble gathering where she felt out of place.
'I am from the Fox Tribe. My lineage can be described as aristocratic, but our status is nothing compared to these people.'
Unfortunately, the media had spread the idea that noble Beastkins were accepted at this social gathering, which was false.
"Young Master Methecula, may I have a moment with Lady Shoujo Ramune?"
"As long as you wish, Crown Prince."
Methecula realized that the rumors were true and immediately backed away. He knew that he was nothing compared to the Crown Prince. Besides, their clan might be affected if he faced him.
"Then, Milady, may I?"
The crown prince held out his hand to her. Shoujo took his hand and was pulled away from the crowd.
When they were out of sight, Methecula looked at the other guest. Some of them mocked him, but his expression never changed. He knew, however, that he had lost face tonight, and he had to find a way to vent his frustration.
His gaze was cold.
Then he found his target. A shy woman was standing next to an old, lanky man. Judging by the woman's expression and appearance, she was a companion of a noble.
'She looks like a woman who wants to get rich by marrying an old man. A typical plot. I have found my prey.'
With a devilish grin, he approached the duo. The next day, the woman disappeared, and no one dared to find her. No one knew what happened to her either, so the story became nothing more than unfounded gossip.
