Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate
chapter-850

A slow and mellow tune reverberated inside the Event Hall, prompting the dancers to dance quite slowly

This kind of music was supposed to be only played when the celebration was nearing its end. But since Princess Shayna requested the musicians to play this song, they had no choice but to listen to her request.

Surprisingly, those who planned to dance alongside the Princess changed their minds and remained on the side, simply watching as the Highlander and the Princess of Agartha danced around the hall, not minding the stares of countless people who were looking at them.

"You dance well, Sir Lux," Princess Shayna said. "Do Highlanders also get dance lessons above ground?"

"I was forced to practice dancing because I had to dance with my fiance during her birthday celebration," Lux replied.

"…You have a Fiance?" Princess Shayna inquired, the smile on her face stiffening a bit.

"I have two Fiances," Lux answered.

This time, the corner of Princess Shayna's lips twitched after hearing that Lux already had two fiances.

She thought that the Half-Elf had come because he had fallen in love with her sister and wished to set her free.

However, after learning that he already had two fiances, the young beauty was very tempted to step on Lux's foot while they were dancing.

She rationally kept herself from doing that.

Doing so would shame the Royal Family's honor, so she endured her dissatisfaction and continued to ask questions as they danced.

Since the majority were paying extra close attention to the two, they all heard the Princess' questions, as well as Lux's answer.

"Sir Lux, what do you think of my Sister?" Princess Shayna asked as Lux made her twirl around slowly around him.

"I think she's very pitiful," Lux replied. "That's the reason why I came here to Agartha."

"Will you still save her knowing that you will be cursed by bad luck?"

"To be honest, I'm also a bit worried about that. Even so, since I know about her situation, I can't just let her stay in that dark and desolate place that would make people go mad."

Princess Shayna had heard very little information about the Pantheon of Exile and had no idea that her sister was currently staying in its deepest and darkest place.

Seeing that the Princess had suddenly become quiet, Lux thought that it was a good opportunity to ask her questions of his own.

"Your Highness, do you like your sister, Aurora?" Lux asked.

"Yes," Princess Shayna replied in a heartbeat. "I miss her very much."

"Then would you like to see her again?"

"I would."

Lux smiled as he continued to dance with the Princess, who was said to be the only one in the Royal Family who cared for the Misfortune's Beloved.

"Are you curious about the Surface World?" Lux inquired. "Also, if given the chance, would you like to go there?"

Knowing that everyone's attention was focused on the two of them, Lux decided to raise his voice a bit, making sure that it would be heard by everyone.

"The Surface World?"

For a brief moment, a tinge of curiosity and wonder appeared in the Princess's eyes. However, it disappeared seconds later as if it had never been there from the start.

"I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't curious about the Surface World," Princess Shayna replied. "If there is an opportunity, I would like to see it."

"Then, how about you join my Guild?" Lux asked in a volume that only the Princess was able to hear. "If you join my guild, you will be able to go there instantly."

"Eh?" Princess Shayna was so surprised by Lux's unexpected offer that she accidentally stepped on the Half-Elf's foot.

The Half-Elf only smiled and pretended that nothing had happened as he supported and guided the young beauty to continue to dance with him.

The two no longer talked about anything until the dance ended. Only after they bowed to each other did the Princess regain her composure and thanked the red-headed teenager for the dance.

"Thank you for the dance, Sir Lux," Princess Shayna said. "It was a memorable experience."

"It was an honor dancing with you too, Your Highness," Lux replied with a bow. "Please, accept this humble gift from me."

Everyone waited for Lux to give his gift to the princess, but the Half-Elf simply stood there with a smile.

Princess Shayna, on the other hand, looked in front of her in a daze, as if she had seen something unexpected.

"Whether you accept it or not is up to you, Your Highness," Lux lowered his head and whispered in Princess Shayna's ears. "But I can guarantee you that if you accept it, you will see a brand new world that exists above ground."

Lux then walked away from the Dance Floor, leaving the Princess who was still standing there in a daze.

The guests who saw this knew that something had happened between the Princess and the Highlander, but they didn't see the Half-Elf do anything suspicious.

Princess Shayna, on the other hand, took a few deep breaths in order to regain her composure. Half a minute later, she returned to the Royal Table, where the members of her family were currently seated.

"Is everything alright, Shayna?" King Septimius asked. "Did that Half-Elf do anything inappropriate to you?"

"No, Father," Princess Shayna replied. "Sir Lux didn't do anything. I was just surprised when he asked me if I wanted to see the Surface World."

"I see." King Septimius nodded.

It was not uncommon for the members of the Royal Family to visit the Surface World. In fact, the Princes and the Princesses would be given the opportunity to go there as part of their training as Royal Members of the Kingdom of Agartha.

Princess Shayna's case was a bit special because she was suffering from Aurora's curse. Because of this, she was placed under house arrest and was not allowed to step out of the Royal Palace without permission from the King of Agartha.

After Princess Shayna's and Lux's dance ended, everyone returned to the dance floor once more to take their turns to dance.

Even the young beauty's brothers' and sisters' joined the festivities, leaving their youngest sibling staring at the space in front of her in a daze.

What they didn't know was that several rows of text were shining in front of Princess Shayna, and those words were.

< Would you like to join the Mythical Guild, Heaven's Gate? >

< Yes / No >
