Why Should I Stop Being a Villain
chapter-257

"As you all know, we will cover the main part of the Gala that will start soon," the reporter spoke, looking at a camera that was floating in the air.

"In the meantime, we can see the famous White Castle of Mzelm Flying Island," he said as the camera turned towards its right to showcase a beautiful sight of the White Castle glowing in the night.

Many reporters were filming the castle as they were not permitted to film the guests unless it was the Main Dance.

Most people were looking forward to the first day of the Gala. They were excited to see the attendees who were from the families that managed the whole world.

The White Castle had one main entrance but everyone's entry time had been confirmed already. This was to ensure that no two guests entered at the same time.

One by one, the other invited guests entered with their family, all of them were dressed in luxurious clothes and gemstones.

The entrance of the White Castle had various illusions of colorful mana strings floating around, creating a vibrant atmosphere as the guests entered.

At first, all the Non-High Council guests entered one by one with their families. These were people who had much control over High Society, but they were still below the Elite Families.

Each of these families was supporting one of the High Council members that attended the Gala.

"Wow, this is so beautiful," a few young ladies that entered the White Castle commented.

Each staircase would lead you to different sections of the Night Party. The most important fact was that they could see that all the cultures of the Five Different Continents were respected.

The Kalvas Gala showcased the unity of the High Council to the world, but in reality, it was a place where enmities would start over the auctioned items.

"Make sure to talk to the people I told you about," some parents told their kids.

Even if they were invited to the Gala, it didn't mean that they were strong enough to stand against the Elite Families.

That's why most of these families would have their children make connections with the young generation of the Elite Families, in order to ensure that the future of their families remained 'bright'.

Soon the guests arrived at their own reserved sections, as the time for the High Council Member's Families began.

The White Castle consisted of a Main Hall which was large enough for multiple events to happen at the same time. The Main Hall had a big screen placed there so that the Host could say a few words and the Main Attraction of the Second Day Auction would be revealed.

After the Formal Dance would end, they would display the last 10 items apart from the last two that would be presented on Day 2, allowing people to decide earlier what they would bid on.

As the guests entered the Main Hall, there was another entrance but it was for the First Floor of the Main Hall.

All the adults would stay on the Second Floor that connected to the First Hall with a massive staircase in the middle.

Even children who were below the age of 14 would stay with their parents as the First Floor was only there for the children above 14.

Soon many young men and women started to enter the First Floor, where a sitting arrangement was also set up for them.

As the First Floor was reserved for young people, it wasn't hard to see them observing each other openly.

Unlike the adults, who didn't reveal their intentions openly, these young people were still a bit immature in that regard.

Not all of them were trained and educated as some Elite Families would have their children go through, so they could learn how to act in High Society from a young age.

And one by one, the Elite Families started entering, with several eyes falling on the people that were entering now.

Each of them exuded a powerful aura, and their confidence showed that they wereaware of their positions and how much power they held.

The first three Elite Families to enter were from Halcyon, and as they entered, the entire Main Hall turned vibrant green, reflecting the color of the Royal Family's insignia.

But people also noticed that King Rewilh Halcyon entered alone, without the Queen accompanying him. Instead, accompanying Rewilh were Archduchess Everett and Archduke Allister with their families trailing behind them.

Jack and Sam entered from the first floor, along with Lishia Halcyon, who entered alone without a partner, and to her left was the fourth-year student of the World Academy, belonging to the Everett Family.

Next were the Families of Fashia Continent, with the Watson Family entering first, followed by Alexander Astaria entering the White Castle, and the Cranston Family entering last while Cade also ascended to the second floor.

The second floor was so large and divided into many sections that it was difficult to see one person from one end to the other.

The light illuminated a bright yellow, representing the hot climate of Fashia that prevailed most of the year.

Next, the light turned sapphire blue, hinting at the entrance of the Elite Families from the Desmar Continent.

"Lady Levoure has made this Gala truly beautiful," Filia said as she looked at the entrance of the White Castle.

"Did you like it that much?" James asked, and Filia nodded as they both entered together,

"It's the Rothschilds," one of the people sitting there informed their kids about the identity of this couple.

Next to enter were Kamden Whiteheart and his wife.

"Relax, Kamden, you don't need to be so cautious," the Lady of the Whiteheart family said,

"I know," Kamden replied as he entered the White Castle.

Meanwhile, on the first floor, everyone was surprised to see Kevin Whiteheart and Elena Rothschild entering together.

"They look so gorgeous," a girl said to her partner, who was also stunned while looking at Elena.

Usually at the World Academy, Elena and others would wear uniforms or training suits, but this was the first time they were seen in matching attire.

Kevin was wearing a white suit, with light blue cuffs, while Elena donned a white dress, accentuated by a sapphire necklace.

Eva and Ria entered together behind them, as the four of them took their seats.

"I would love to dance with him," a girl said, looking at Kevin. She was one of the few girls who had come without a partner.

In high society, Kevin was still more famous than Asher, who rarely attended social events.

Most people only knew Asher from the Representative Tournament, but Kevin had frequently appeared at social events.

The lights turned light blue and the mana orbs started to flicker. It was time for the Elite Families from Belvoria Continent to enter.

The first was the Martell Family, with Tyrone entering the first floor alone. His tall stature attracted many gazes, but he quietly took his seat, not wishing to draw any more attention to himself.

"Is he shy?" Ria thought as she looked at Tyrone.

Next to enter the White Castle was the Neville Family, with Gavin accompanying one of the girls his father had advised him to partner with.

However, the most shocking moment came with the entrance of the Hargrave Family.

Leading the Hargrave Family, and walking in front of the Family head, was Casie Hargrave. Her crimson red dress and stunning beauty mesmerized many people seated on the second floor.

But within moments, they recognized Casie's identity, and a single thought occupied their minds.

Looking at Casie's dress, they were certain that the reasonfor her attending a social event after a decade was due to the Grevilles, or more accurately, the twins.

"It seems this night will be fun," the Neville family head smirked, discerning the expression on the Hargrave family head's face.

From his expression alone, it was clear how much he had tried to stop Casie, but in the end, he couldn't.

"It would be fun if she meets them," the Neville family head murmured, glancing at his wife beside him.

"Are you forgetting how that woman is?" his wife retorted,

"No, but that's why I am looking forward to it," he replied.

After all, many people here knew about Casie's habits and her nature. It wasn't hard for them to predict what was going to happen next.
