Inheritor Of Magic: The Magi King

Chapter 1126: 1126 Paired Off

As was tradition, the incoming King and Queen took the first dance. Or in this case, the first two dances, as Cassie traded off with Ella after a few minutes of twirling around the dance floor.

Cassie had gone for a traditional Noxus Family dance from the memory crystal, but Ella went for one from the Fae Realms, a more ethereal dance that helped set the mood in a more playful and less formal direction, as the Faeries did their very best to resist joining in.

That was the final breaking point for the party. Once Wolfe and Ella separated, and he moved to take Priya as his next dance, the Faeries descended from the rafters and began to dance around in the air over the floor, spreading sparkling dust everywhere, and giving the dance floor a magical glow in the most literal sense.

Then the braver of the young men invited dance partners to the floor, and some of the older Nobles who had brought a spouse instead of a child for the dating event joined them.

That was how Wolfe found himself dancing with a Nymph Guardian from the Mist Continent who was old enough to be his great-grandmother’s nanny, while Ella found herself twirling around the dance floor in the arms of Overlord Cassanova.

The Incubus was a spirited dancer, and it didn’t look like he had any intentions of leaving the dance floor, as he moved from partner to partner with overly formal bows between dances.

After five songs, fathers had begun to catch on to his flirtatious ways, and Cassanova found himself standing in a small, isolated area of the floor next to Wolfe.

“Shall we, your Majesty?” He asked with an amused smirk.

“I think we shall. Let’s show them how the Lust Demons dance. I will lead.” Wolfe agreed.

The two men were close to the same size, but Cassanova had chosen a lilac coloured suit to Wolfe’s silver, so they made a striking pair as they spun, twisted and slid against each other on the floor.

Wolfe was desperately trying not to laugh as he saw many of the young Noblewomen fanning themselves as they stared in rapt attention at the scene in front of them.

Then, the song changed from an upbeat tune to a more slow and sultry song, and Cassanova found himself replaced by Rail, who sneaked in between the two with a wink.

That was also a Lust Demon dance tradition, so Wolfe just went with it.

A few of the ladies had to be brought back to their chairs to recover, and more than one of the young men had discretely left the room to take a personal moment. But the dance had the effect that Rail had intended, and now the close dances of the young couples looked positively tame and chaste in comparison.

Many of these families had very conservative views on what was acceptable for their own children, and they would have had a heart attack if they had seen their daughter sandwiched in a dance the way that Rail had been.

The daughters, on the other hand, were more than a little bit eager to learn the moves to that particular dance.

There was very little chance that their parents would allow anyone who might know the steps to enter their home to teach it, but there were rumours of a young noblewoman in the Fallen Empire who had taken twin brothers as her husbands.

Wolfe moved from partner to partner, chatting idly with each of the ladies through the songs as they congratulated him on his advancement, and before he knew it, the band was announcing that it was four in the morning with the Coronation Event scheduled to start at noon.

Many of the guests had already retired to their rooms, exhausted or incredibly drunk, so Wolfe wound down the dancing, and made one last round of goodbyes before heading for his suite.

Rail crept up behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist while giving Cassie and Ella her best pleading look.

“Can I borrow our King for an evening? I am very close to advancing, and one last push should put me through to the Seventh Rank.” She begged.

“I think that we can manage that. A little push is all that it usually takes to get a Succubus started.” Wolfe joked as they made their way down into the mountain.

Nimue gave them all a dejected look, and Ella picked up the little dryad.

“Why don’t we do something special for the evening? We need lots of sleep before the ceremony, and they’re going to be busy all morning helping Auntie Rail advance.” She suggested, earning herself an annoyed tongue out gesture from the Succubus in question.

In Rail’s mind, she definitely wasn’t old enough to be anyone’s Auntie. No matter how young Nimue was.

When they reached the rooms, Cassie and the others split off to the secondary bedrooms around the main suite, while Ella pulled Rail into the bedroom with her and motioned for Wolfe to wait outside.

“Why’s he waiting? I thought they were all going to cuddle?” Nimue asked, making Wolfe laughed.

“They want to make the room just right first. Like when you rearrange the plants and make a blanket fort.” Wolfe informed her.

Cassie was doing her best not to laugh as she led the curious Dryad into an empty room, but a few others lingered around to make sure that the impressionable little one was safely hidden away before anything R18 happened.

There were no living plants in Wolfe’s room, so she wouldn’t feel anything through them, and the Pentacle members were doing their best to preserve her innocent mind for as long as was possible while surrounded by the people she called family.

Nimue was brought into a room with Cassie and Carmine, who was her usual cuddle buddy, and three layers of soundproofing and protective spells were raised over it.

When a Succubus broke through a rank, there were some side effects, and they fully intended to isolate her from the emotional aspect, and let her adjust back to balance in the morning, using the Pentacle bond.
