The White Rainbow Pierces the Sun. Two powerful waves released by the Staff of Destruction shook the entire Torristine Capital.
Feng Yuchen and the others, who were engaged in battle, had a clear understanding of the power of the Staff of Destruction. According to Tabatha and Chuluk, the Staff of Destruction had the power to instantly cast a square-level spell, and it was close to the power of a Pentagon-level spell. This was already quite powerful.
To cast a high-level spell, one must have enough time to chant it. The ability to instantly cast a spell was simply unattainable for ordinary people, and its destructive power was naturally amazing. Even an adult dragon would be severely injured if it were to take this attack.
Before dawn, Feng Yuchen and the others returned to the academy and brought back the Staff of Destruction. They also captured Lotus Clod and a hidden student from the academy.
"Louise … Louise France, you really are my most trusted friend. You have put an end to this chaos. Thank you for everything you have done for me … I will bestow upon you the title of a knight in front of all the nobles …"
Angelietta excitedly hugged Louise. Although Louise's body was covered with the dust of the battle, it was still a testament to Angelietta's heroism.
"Your humble servant …" Louise could not help but feel a little excited. Although her words were polite, she felt a sense of elation in her heart. She, who had long been known as Louise of Zero, had actually received the title of a knight. This was an extraordinary thing. This was not an inheritance of honor, but a result of her own efforts.
"Well … Your Royal Highness, I also fought hard, and I even caught a spy from the academy!"
Cardinal held a rose in his hand and pretended to be elegant, but his body was mixed with dirt that was even dirtier than Louise's. His clothes were tattered, and his face was swollen (this was thrown by Feng Yuchen) …
"Hmph, as a second-year, if I can't even beat a first-year, that would be embarrassing!"
Chuluk snorted coldly. But this snort did not seem to be angry at Cardinal, but at Louise, right?
After all, the two of them were like fire and water. Louise's performance had now surpassed hers, so she was naturally dissatisfied.
"…"
Angelietta looked at Keishu, Chuluk, and Tabatha. She said gratefully, "Thank you for your help. I hope you can all attend the ball at the palace …"
"A ball at the palace!"
Ji Xiu couldn't help but feel excited.
The palace represented the Torristine Royal Palace. The noble ball held there was definitely the most dazzling ball in the entire Kingdom. Moreover, the people there were all nobles with status. Entering this place meant that one's future would be meteoric. This also meant that one would enter the sights of the entire Torristine Noble Circle. If one acted well, in the future, one would definitely —
"Yes, everyone can bring along their favorite dance partners. When the time comes, you will be the center of the ball. You have reclaimed the Divine Artifact and captured Fukai, the Earth Lump that troubled the nobles in the North. This is a great contribution, and you deserve it." Angelietta nodded.
"…"
Do you need a partner?
Feng Yuchen wanted to dance with Shana, but as a familiar, he obviously didn't have the right to bring people into the ball.
…
The next day, Feng Yuchen accompanied Louise to the noble ball held by Angelietta. The location of the ball was in a luxurious palace hall. The people attending tonight's ball were all nobles from the central class of the palace. Of course, they were all mages.
On both sides of the huge ballroom, there were long tables made of noble red teak. Luxurious dishes were placed on top of the tables. Nobles were holding plates and bottles of wine, chatting elegantly. Some were talking about interesting things between nobles, and some were discussing the basics of magic.
"Your Royal Highness …"
With the appearance of Angelietta in a purple dress, all the nobles showed a respectful posture.
"Everyone, please don't stand on ceremony. Today is romantic and lively, not a solemn meeting room in the palace. Let me welcome the real host of tonight …" Angelietta's gentle and elegant voice was like a harp that moved everyone's heart. Everyone followed her slender hand and looked at the entrance.
"Ah, what a noble place …" Keishu took the lead and walked in front, showing his elegance. His father told him to perform well tonight and remember the nobles' praises.
"Not bad … Isn't it, Tabatha …"
Chuluk's dress was even more low-cut than usual, and his charming temperament immediately attracted a group of male nobles.
"I'm only interested in cooking …"
Tabatha in a black dress was ready to battle with the food on the table for the whole night.
It seemed that everyone was enjoying this ball.
Next was Louise.
Her long, peach-colored hair was tied with a bow, and she was wearing a white dress. The gloves that extended to her elbows showed off Louise's elegance, and the dress that revealed her chest made Louise's face shine like a jewel.
Finally, it was Feng Yuchen in a black tuxedo.
After confirming that everyone was present, the musicians began to play soothing music.
"Louise … Tabatha …"
Angelietta invited the two of them to the second floor, and then a maid carried an exquisite tray with the letters of two nobles.
"In view of the outstanding performance of the two students of the Torristine Magic Academy in this battle, as well as the excellent magician who summoned the ancient dragon, I hereby, in the name of the Torristine Royal Family, bestow upon the daughter of the Duke of Valliere, Miss Louise Francis Brown de la Valliere and Miss Tabatha the title of knights …"
Following Angelietta's solemn voice, Louise and Tabatha immediately knelt on one knee and accepted the letters of nobility. At this moment, they became true nobles.
Clap clap …
Everyone applauded in celebration. Louise had become the most dazzling lady of the night. Not only was she the daughter of a Duke, but she had also completed the task of retrieving the Divine Artifact and capturing the thieves. Her outstanding performance and elegant temperament made all the men want to dance with her. These nobles could not help but make plans in their hearts to invite Louise to be their dance partner after she completed her knighthood ceremony …
Feng Yuchen was probably thinking that Louise would invite him to be her dance partner.
After all, she did not have anyone close here.
But was that really the case?
Louise's dance partner would be …???
