[hr]
The demoness let out a sigh of relief. It looked like none of her father's lackeys and even himself noticed her presence. Though part of her wanted to get a chance to get to talk to the Lich King, she understood that he had to protect his identity. Of course, he had to wear the most regal and expensive clothes in all of the lands even in his disguise. [i]How typical of Father[/i], she thought to herself. She did receive a piece of paper with numbers on it like Cade, Ayita, and the rest. She wondered who her dance partners will be...

Sakura was also one of the many who stared at the woman who just came in. She couldn't believe that the girl who started it all, the one they call Risa she believed, was right here in the flesh in the same room where Aklenroth was. Her eyes suddenly widened at the realization of what will be happening later tonight. Was this the day he'll finish her and end the rebellion once and for all? What will Sakura do once chaos ensues in the ballroom? A voice in her wanted to walk straight to the regal-looking woman right now and finish her herself but the other voice also wanted to wait and see how the night will turn out instead. She chose to follow the latter.

Besides, she figured it was probably just her getting anxious and jittery and stuff. It's been a long time she had seen Aklenroth. She was kind of enjoying the part of her life where she didn't have to kill anybody, where she could go on without ever worrying about the constant impending doom of disappointing her father. 

Nevertheless, the stares eventually lingered down and everyone went back to mingling with their own peers but she could tell some still stole glances at the her. Sakura just raised an eyebrow at her and turned her attention away from her. Only a fool like her would go to a very dangerous place and risk herself getting killed or maybe she was just an attention hog. Either way, Sakura was certainly sure she was [i]way[/i] prettier than her.

[color=#DB9CB7]"Compliment them, the rich and mighty love it when they are praised. Of course, the night will be full of fake smiles so you will feel your jaw ache after a while. Nevertheless, Cade was right for once. Be polite and respectful to them and there would be a good chance they'll do the same to you."[/color] Sakura said to Ayita. The demoness had lots of experience mingling with elitist and haughty nobles. She had been a VIP to the Demon Lord of Pride's parties. She then turned to Cade and sighed. [color=#DB9CB7]"Never change, big guy. Never change."[/color]

She continued on with Ayita and Cade to the buffet. Every single food was really beautiful to look at and she bet they even tasted better when they're in her mouth. She got some food for her plate and was feeling bliss in every bite. She was about to advise Cade about using the cutlery when someone talked to her. She was a bit surprised when the 'someone' turned out to be a small someone. She looked at how of a messy eater he was and how he hid a chicken bone in a potted plant. She narrowed her eyes at him. Children.

[color=#DB9CB7]"Unnecessary input but thank you for watching out for me, little one."[/color] Sakura sarcastically-but-still-kindly replied to the boy. She actually wanted to be snarkier but figured she wouldn't want to bring anyone down on such a wonderful night. [color=#DB9CB7]"I will accept your offer for a drink if you take this table napkin to wipe the smudge off your face. Do we have a deal?".[/color] She said while offering him a clean white napkin. She suddenly saw her own paper glow and contort into a small butterfly, fluttering around and magically tugging her towards her partner. [color=#DB9CB7]"But I'm still eating..."[/color]
